Benito

Sun shining into my face woke me up the next morning. My right arm was loosely wrapped around Casey's waist, while my right hand was intertwined with hers. She was sound asleep with her head laying on my chest. I placed a soft kiss on the top of her head which caused her to groan and move. "Morning." she mumbled with her eyes still closed. "Good morning." I answered, smiling down at her. When she let go of my hand and turned around, I fully wrapped both of my arms around her tightly, pulling her even closer to me. We stayed in this position for another two hours, dozing off every now and then. I was only wearing a pair of boxers and I had lent her one of my shirts. At around ten, somebody knocked at my door. I knew it was either José or Hernando, my manager, so I didn't bother to respond to the knocking; both of them had a key card. You might wonder why J Balvin was there with me, well, we were actually touring together at that time. The door to my room slowly opened. "¿Benito, te levantaste?" I heard José ask. My eyes were still closed, but I could feel his stare on me. "Sí. ¿Qué quieres?" I answered, opening my eyes. "El desayuno está pronto." he answered. I could tell that he was standing right in front of the bed. Casey had snuggled herself into the covers so deeply that you couldn't see her. "¿Qué?" I asked again, sitting up. "Hernando ordered breakfast for you and wanted me to see if you're awake." he replied, shrugging. "Oh, uh, yeah, I'm awake and breakfast sounds great." I said, while stretching a little. "How did your talk with Casey go?" José wanted to know, leaning against the couch in front of the bed. Right in that moment, she started moving next to me. "¿Ella todavía está aquí?" he questioned surprised. Nodding, I answered and smiled. Slowly, Casey crawled out of the blanket, until she finally came to view. I chuckled at the way she looked at me. She was sleepy and had to look around a little, before fully being awake. José was looking at her expectingly and when she realized that we weren't alone, she snapped out of her little trance. "Oh, um, hi! I'm Casey." she said, waving at him. "José, nice to meet you." he answered, also waving. "So, I'll go and tell Hernando that you want breakfast for two, yeah?" José added, before making his way back out of the door.

Later that day, I had picked Casey up from work. We were on our way to her apartment. It was quiet in the car, but I really needed to get something off my chest; it had bothered me since she had left my hotel room. "Casey, I want you to come and visit me in Puerto Rico." I said, when we stopped at a red light. "What?" she asked surprised. "To meet my family." I explained. "We barely know each other, Benito." she replied hesitatingly. "I know, but I really like you, bonita." I told her, looking at the steering wheel. "Are you serious?" she still sounded surprised. "Yes, I want to show you how serious I am about us." I explained to her. "Wow, that's a big step." Casey said shyly. "How about we do this step by step. You come visit me and meet my brothers for first and Puerto Rico is a great place to go on vacation, by the way." I tried to persuade her. "Only your brothers, right?" she wanted to make sure that we did this slowly. "Only Bernie and Bysael." I assured her. She slowly nodded and gave me a small smile. I smiled back at her, just when the light turned green. When we arrived at her apartment, we were greeted by Felícia and Damon, watching Tv in the living room. "You guys wanna watch a movie with us?" Damon asked, as we walked past the two of them. "Depends on the movie." Casey answered him, throwing her back into her room. "Fantastic Beasts." Felícia replied. Casey looked at me, expecting an answer. I shrugged since I didn't mind. "Hell yeah!" she then shouted back at her best friend, before walking into the living room. "I hope you like anything that has to do with the Wizarding World because this girl over here is a Potterhead." Damon informed me, pointing a finger at Casey who had sat down on the couch next to him. "Are you kidding me? I love Harry Potter." I answered, plopping down next to her.

Halfway through the movie, Casey laid her head against my shoulder. She had her eyes closed and her face was completely relaxed. Smiling to myself, I put my arm around her. Since she looked so peaceful, I didn't want to wake her up, nor did I want to carry her to her bedroom. "Can I ask you something, Benito?" I heard Felícia say. "Claro." I answered, looking at her. "Do you like her?" she then asked. "I do a lot. She's such a good person and so different." I replied honestly, while looking down at Casey. "Good, because she likes you too and if you hurt her, I swear, I'm gonna kill you." Cia then warned me. "I promise, I won't." I assured her. After that, we both looked at the TV screen again. I felt so normal, lying on that couch and just doing things that I usually could only do with either my childhood friends, family or other famous friends. Also, Casey made me forget about all of the times I had been hurt before. After my last relationship, I had sworn myself to never ever let another girl get close to me, but from the moment I had started talking to Casey, I didn't want to shut her out. She was trustworthy and the fact that she didn't care about my money nor my fame, attracted me so much.
