10.00 o'clock
Monday

Sharp morning light blends my eyes.
I try to stretch myself but crumble together because of the pain.
I start remembering everything that happened yesterday.
But where's Alex.
I hear noise coming from my kitchen.
Maybe Alex?
Or Nickolas.
Fear hits me like a big wave.
„A-Al-Alex?"
„Oh morning, hun. "
Thank goodness it was Alex.
„I didn't want to wake you up, you looked way to cute."
I walk into my crabby kitchen and see him grinning.
„Morning.", I grumble as respond.
„I'm in a hurry. I have a band meeting in 30 minutes.", he brushes his hair out of his forehead.
He does that often and it's cute.
His hair is wet and he's got some water stains on his shirt.
"Okay, have fun. I'll be off to work soon too."
Saying these words I start cooking water.
This feels like we're a couple and I kinda like the thought of us being together.
"I took a shower. I hope you're ok with that?"
That explains it.
"Yeah sure."
I rub my eyes.
"How are you feeling?"
He looks worried.
"Ok I guess. I've got a headache but's nothin' a pill won't heal."
He nods with a serious expression.
"I thought you're in university?"
"I am. Right now I just have fall break wich I use for working my ass off."
"Oh! What are you studying?"
"Art"
"That's cool."
The water boils and I pur it in a cup and put a teabag in.
I stand on my tiptoes and ruffle through the brunettes hair.
"Thanks for yesterday... I really needed that."
I look at his chest avoiding eye contact.
His shirt sits tight and I can see some muscles.
My heart skips a beat when his chest moves into my direction and he hugs me.
He rests his chin on my head and we just stay like this for some time.
"No problem, love.", he whispers and kisses the top of my head.
"I Really need to get going now.", he giggles softly and steps back.
My cheeks blush.
After he was gone I take on my clothes and get ready.
On my way to grab my keys I notice a little note on my table: 15155628127 :).
