Chapter 5- You, me and the bottle makes three tonight

"What do you mean you hate my height?" he asked moving few inches away from my face.

"Out of all the things I said you remembered that?" I asked in shock.

"I remember everything, that amazed me, I knew about the other things but that one I didn't expect" he said shaking his head.

"Wait, you knew I like you?" I asked squealing.

He nodded.

"How?" I asked narrowing my eyes.

"Marni told me and besides you're not one of the world's mysteries. You're pretty easy to figure out" he said nodding.

"Remind me to kill Marni, okay?" I said waving my hand.

He smiled and leaned on his elbows.

"You should go to sleep or you'll be tired tomorrow and I can presume who you'll blame for that" he said sarcastically.

"Johnny?" I asked looking down.

"Yes, Leny?" he asked lifting his eyebrows.

"Do you mind if I stay here?" I asked as quietly as I could.

"Are you sure? I mean, you can stay but are you sure you want to spend the night in the same room with me?" he asked suspiciously.

"Can I stay or not?" I asked annoyed.

"Is this some kind of trick? You will draw moustache on my face with an waterproof marker or you'll cut my throat while I'm sleeping?" he was still suspicious.

"I give up, you're an moron, I'll just sleep in my room. You probably snore anyway so I'll end up trying to wake you up or really cutting your throat" I said standing up.

Ughh. Why does every conversation need to end as a fight with this guy? This is tough. I sighed and proceeded with my intention to leave the room. He grabbed my hand.

"Wait. This is your house, you can stay if you want. I'm sorry if I offended you" he said looking down.

I turned around and laid on the bed.

"That's more like it. I'll stay" I said smiling and he smiled back.

He laid next to me and sighed.

"Are we ever going to quit the arguing?" he asked turning around, facing me.

"Would that be interesting?" I asked narrowing my eyes.

"Not really" he said nodding.

"Then my answer is no" I said smiling.

He laughed and leaned his head on his palm. His eyes got a soft shade of blue, they were much brighter than usual. I liked them bright.

"Tell me about that contest you're entering" I said interested.

"Well" he settled and stared at the ceiling.

"There is this contest held every year, the winner gets a chance to make an album in an professional studio with professional people. We entered Two years ago and last year but they said we're still to rough" he sighed.

"This year I hope you'll be my lucky charm and bring me luck so we win" he smiled.

"I'll do my best" I said closing my eyes.

He leaned towards me and kissed me again. I really wanted him to win, he deserves to be happy, for his dreams to come true.

"Good night" he said quietly.

I nodded and turned away. I dozed off immediately and slept like a baby.

I woke up when Johnny was still asleep. His arms were wrapped around me and my head was leaned on the part of his chest close to the neck.
