- Are you going somewhere, Doctor? - I said lifting my head from the pillows and laying on my right side.

- I have to go to work - he said passing his hand through his face.

- Is there something wrong? - I stood up from the bed and stretched out.

- I hope not, but you stay here, I'll be back soon - he put his glasses on and walked out of the room, and of course, I followed him.

- Are you bringing breakfast with you? Can I wait for you in the car? - I said once we reached the door, he sighed but smiled at me. He put a hand on my face - Alright, you can wait on the car - He smirked letting go my chin - but first, give me a kiss - he said, and I giggled.

He gripped my waist, I dragged his face closer to mine. I could feel my cheeks burning, but I kept going closer. 

I closed my eyes and felt my lips against his, that were warm and tasted like coffee, when did this man wake up? And why I didn't get a coffee?

While I was waiting for Harrison I saw Rathaway surrounded by guards, He saw me, my mouth opened, was he the reason Harrison had to come? He looked at the floor shaking his head.

- I'm sure you saw that - Harrison said closing the door of the car, and I nodded.

He explained to me what Hartley did, and I could barely believe what I was listening. - But -

- I have to stay - he sighed - Why don't you go back - He said looking at the street in front of us - Go back home and eat something. I'll see you later - He briefly looked at me and left the car. When he entered the building, I stepped out of the car and went back home walking.

I passed the rest of the morning (and the evening) watching movies. I still not understanding why Hartley would try to sabotage the accelerator, he seemed as excited about this as Harrison and me.

It was better if I forget about this, and what a better way to forget about something that eating some veggies. I stood up from the couch and headed to the kitchen, and since I was already in the kitchen, I prepared lentil nuggets for Harrison and ate a couple of them. Once my stomach was satisfied with all that protein (maybe not fulfilled), I went back to lay down on the couch with some popcorns and played another movie.

I heard the door opening and quickly left the bowl on the table, I stood up and waited for him, when he saw me he smiled.

- Do you want to eat something? - I said smiling at him, and he gave me a smug smile.

- Oh, I want to. - He said in a husky tone and went to the couch - What are we watching? - he said, and I gulped - Cinderella? - he raised his eyebrow.

- Is the live-action movie - I said in a silly attempt to defend myself, and he laughed - It's underrated - I raised an eyebrow.

- Come here - He said patting his lap. I walked towards him, my tongue passed through my lips and sat as he told me. When I sat, he kissed my head and played the rest of the movie.

- What's going to happen now? Will you hire someone else? - I whispered.

- Well - he passed his finger over the skin of my arms - I know someone smart that is about to graduate in a few days -

- Are you -- I turned to look at him with my lips parted in a big smile.

- I hired you because I knew you could do this, you just needed time, and a chance - I placed my hands on his shoulder and squeezed his shirt - It's your time now -

- thanks, thanks, thanks - I said kissing his cheek uncountable times.

We ate dinner on the couch, and when it was time to sleep we went to his room.

- Do you want to sleep on the floor? - He asked throwing his glasses on the bed.

- Do you wanna sleep on the floor - I yelped and he chuckled. I got used to sleeping everywhere, but when it comes to beds, I find it difficult to get comfortable.

- Help me with the blankets -
