"Daniel salmons good," I confess with another mouth full. Daniel smiles and watches me eat the fish.

"Yeah I told you I can cook," he said before taking a bite of vegetables.

"Yes I know you did, but I never believed you."

"Why's that?"

"You just didn't seem like the kind of guy to cook for himself all the time."

Daniel looks down at his plate, "oh."

"I mean, I'm happy you're different than I thought you'd be..." I continue. "You're amazing, Daniel."

A smile creeps on to his face, but you can see that he's trying to push it down, "you're just saying that.

"Daniel, I mean it."

He looks up to me making eye contact, "okay."

"Okay."

-

"Do you really need to shower?" Daniel asks trying to pull me back onto the couch to cuddle.

"Yes I do and you're not gonna stop me,"
I say firmly wiggling out of his grasp.

"I want to hold your body," he whines.

"Yeah yeah and I want a million dollars."

Daniel laughs, "you just want me to take your virginity."

My face turns red, "n-no," I stutter out.

Daniel smirks, "are you sure about that?"

I roll my eyes, "yes, Daniel I'm sure."

"I think you want me to."

I shake my head and laugh. "Never ever," I scoff.

Daniel smiles, "yeah okay."

I rummage through my duffle bag and find some clothes and the look at Daniel, "uh where are your towels and bathroom and stuff..?"

"Come on, I'll show you," Daniel says grabbing my empty hand. He takes me out of his room and down the hall. He opens the door at the very end of the hall and grabs a towel and a washcloth. He then after takes a right and we enter the bathroom. "Here you go."

I smile, "thank you thank you."

"Okay so before you laugh at me, I use women's hair products like shampoo and conditioner, so you can use that in there. And then there's boxes of soap under the sink, you can open one," Daniel rambles.

I nod, "thanks." I give Daniel this look meaning that he can leave, but he awkwardly stands there instead. "Daniel.. Can you leave now?"

"Oh you want me to leave?" he asks.

"Unless you plan on showering with me," I wya sarcastically.

Daniel smirks, "can I?"

I shake my head and laugh. "Daniel I was kidding!"

"I know, but I wasn't."

I sit there and stare at him. Would it really be a bad thing to shower with him? No. Not at all Ashlyn what kind of shit is that. "Fine," I say with a small smile.

"I knew you'd give into me one day," Daniel says before kissing my head and going back into the hall for a towel.

This should be interesting.

-

"Do you like when I do that?" Daniel whispers huskily into my ear.

"God yes," I murmur as Daniel continues to massage the shampoo into my scalp. His hands feel amazing.

"God the littlest things please you," he scoffed.

"Isn't that a good thing?"

"Well.. I mean kinda, but like-"

"If the littlest things please you doesn't that mean you'll be great at pleasing me?" I ask with a tight smile.

Daniel wraps his arms around my body and leans on me. He's breathing against my ear, "oh princess you definitely know I'm not little."

"Wouldn't know," I say casually trying not to think about how his dick is touching my bare ass as I turn around face him. "But can you move so I can get the soap out of my hair?"

Daniel moves around the shower so I can stand under the water. Once I rinse all the soap out of my hair I start to wash my body, but Daniel gives me a disapproving look.

"What?"

"You didn't even offer to let me wash your body," he whines.

"I didn't know I was supposed to."

"Have you ever watched any movie where a couple has a shower scene?"

"Not really," I reply while rinsing my body off.

"Lord you're uncultured."

-

Sometimes I wish that I could talk to people easier, but that never seems to happen. Yet Daniel kinda sends mixed signals, but sometimes he doesn't. I'm scared that he just wants sex, but he doesn't seem like he only wants that. It's four in the morning and I can't sleep. That's unusual for me because I can always sleep.

I slowly and swiftly wiggle out of Daniels grasp and tip-toe out of his room. I sigh once I make it out of his room. "Why aren't you sleeping?"

I jump turning around to see Tyler. "I couldn't sleep," I tell.

"Daniel problems?"

I shrug. "I wouldn't call it that, but I guess you could put it that way if you want to."

"What's up?"

I walk into the kitchen and I hear Tyler follow, "I'm afraid that Daniel just wants sex, but I'm not too sure."

Tyler chuckles, "trust me Ashlyn, he doesn't want just sex. He's never brought a girl home to meet me, like ever, so the fact that he let's you stay here means something. Plus, I've seen the way he looks at you, it's different."
