"What about that kiss?" I ask nervously, taking a seat on the bed.

"Why did you stop me? In the hallway." he asks, taking a seat in front of me on the couch. "I mean, I get why you stopped me at the concert, but why in the hallway?" he asks.

I decide to be honest and tell him the true reason I stopped him. "I don't want to just be another girl that Maluma has hooked up with." I shrug. He stares at me for a few seconds before nodding his head, understanding. "And I know that maybe since I just got out of a serious relationship a few months ago a casual hook up would be perfect." I say, looking him in the eyes since the first time this conversation started nervously.

"You did tell me you didn't like meaningless sex the night we first started filming." he says, grinning at the memory.

I smile. "Exactly. I don't like getting used for things like that Juan." I say, using a more serious tone of voice this time.

He quickly stands up and walks over to me. "Hey, I don't just want that with you. Believe me, you would know if all I wanted from you was sex." He stands in between my legs and gently runs his thumbs across the apples of my cheeks. "I'm still figuring out my feelings for you, okay? I'm not used to feeling the way I feel for you. I haven't felt this way in a while. Give me some time?" he asks, his stare pleading.

I take a deep breath. "Fine. I'll give you some time." I say, removing his hands that are now on my hips and taking them in my own.

"Thank you. I leave tonight. When are you free to meet again?" he asks quietly.

I think for a second before responding,"After this I have a couple shoots. So I'd say in like two weeks?" I say, laughing at the look of disappointment on his face.

"That's too long." he says, whining like a child.

I roll my eyes. "I can't just not go to the shoots, Juan. I've had them planned out for months now." I say, fixing a piece of hair that's covering his eyes.

"Lo se." he sighs, nodding. "How about I come back next week when I have a couple of days off and I take you out on a date? A proper one." he says, smiling down at me.

"I can wait. You don't need to come over here just for that." I say, shrugging.

"I want to though. I can't wait that long Adrianna!!" he groans.

I laugh once again at how he's acting. "If you really want to come that bad, then fine." I say, rolling my eyes playfully.

"I do." he says seriously, nodding.

I clear my throat nervously before standing up. "You should go. Get some sleep." I grab his hand and lead him to the door.

Before I shut the door he grabs me by the face and smashes his lips to mine, not gently at all. I don't mind though. I wrap my arms around his neck, reciprocating the eagerness of the kiss. He pulls back after a few moments with fire in his eyes. "Now I can leave." he says, grinning widely.

All I can do is nod before he walks away.

For the next days leading up to our date, Juan and I talk whenever he's not in a concert and when I'm not in a shoot. I find myself actually missing him being with me even though it was only a week with him by my side. "I'm almost at your place." Juan says through the phone.

"Good." I say, smiling like crazy.

"You're smiling aren't you?" he asks, and I know he's smiling too.

"How did you know?" I ask, shaking my head.

"I love your smile. It's not hard to tell when you're smiling." he says.
