I make my way home from work, I am alone at home because as usual mom had night duty. I prepare my dinner and started eating it. Suddenly my phone started to ring which startled me. I saw that the call is from Massy. I frown cause Massy never called this late and we didn't talk the whole day. I received the call.

" Hello Tessi, Can I stay at your place tonight ? " he said so speedily I had not heard it if I had not listened to it carefully.

"Hello, Massy are you all right," I asked with concern.

" Please I will explain everything but just for tonight let me stay at your place. ". He pleaded to me.

" Yeah sure come over. "

I am waiting patiently for him to knock on the door so I can ask him everything. As the door knocked I immediately open it. He entered and immediately hug me. He started sniffing and put his head on my neck as it calms him down. I let him hug me and started to soothe his tensed back, which calmed easily by my touch and surprise me that my touch effects him this much.

" Come and sit on the couch and eat ice cream with me " I take his hand and make my way to the couch and sit and drag him down at my side.

We eat ice-cream and watched a movie with him leaning on my shoulder. I sometimes think about his reputation, if someone sees him behaving like this towards me, they might think about him being fake of being ignorant and rude.

" Do you want to talk about it, "I asked, still scared that he will stand up and walk out of my home.

" Yes," he said and he started. " Today is my mother's death anniversary and I may act that I don't care about her being dead but it hurts sometimes. I was 13 when she left us, it was an accident. I was old, mature enough but Nick was just one year old and it was difficult to take care of him. He always asks for Mumma and after her death, dad got depressed. He loved her so much. He still does, that's why he tries to get focused on the work so he won't miss her but what about me. Who cares about me when I got sick or something. No one is there to care of me and that is the reason for me getting in trouble so dad should notice me and talk to me about how's my life going and care for me. " he said with his eyes closed.

He continued " I miss her Tessi. She was so a beautiful and amazing person. She would have liked you. I cannot stay at my home tonight, it is full of our memories there and I started to feel suffocated. " he finished with a huff.

Massy and I both love spending time with each other and it is starting to build trust between us.

I hugged him, thinking about him being lonely all these years and no was there for him. I hugged him as if it can take away his pain. As he pulls away I tell him my past that I never told anyone else.

"My father left me and mom when I was just 9 years old. Mom was a housewife so it was hard for her to get jobs because she didn't have experience and you know he left us for who, his own secretary who is half of his age and they are married now. He is living his life happily and my mom has never dated anyone. She thinks that she won't be able to take care of me if she dates. " I stopped. Take a deep breath and continue.

"She is a perfect mom but we all need a dad figure in our lives who give us life lessons and threatened the boys to take care of me whom I bring for my date at home. Says goodnight with a kiss on my forehead. " I finished.

" I'm sorry, you are dealing with your problems and here I am telling you my foolish problems. " I said with a smile.

" Your problems are not foolish and you can tell me anything. I do care for you and I will give you a kiss on the forehead from now on. " He said which brings a smile on my face. I hugged him for the third time and put my face on his warm chest which gives me a homey feeling.

"OK now stop with our sappy life and continue the movie," he said pulling me to his side and put his hand on my shoulder. I lean my head to his chest, I can hear his heartbeat which makes me calm even more.

I started to feel sleepy and turned my head to see what is massy doing and it put a smile on my face because he already was asleep. I shook his shoulder gently. He turns his head towards me and blinks his eyes like an old man. I pull him up from the couch and we make our way to my room. He takes off his T-shirt and lay on my bed but as he spread his arms, I feel like my bed is so small. He is looking so huge in my tiny little bed. I jumped on my bed from which he bounced and laughed, that is the laugh I want on his face all the time. He pulls me suddenly in his arms and put his face on my chest which felt weird at first but then it felt good.

I heard little snores coming from Mason. He pulls me even closer if that is even possible. How can such a sweet person try to kill someone? Questions started to arise in my mind. The thing that scared me the most was the part that I like him and I don't want to ruin our friendship because of my silly crush. I know he can never take an interest or even like a simple girl like me who is not enough beautiful and amazing for a handsome boy like him.
