"No it's okay, I'll take the floor. It's your house,"

"What? No, you're injured. I can't let you sleep on the floor," I argued back.

I continued to argue with him, offering him to sleep on my bed, finally managing to convince him to take my bed.

Bumping into him yesterday and now he's staying for the night.

I wonder if he noticed it was me yesterday.

Wait-

"I just realized that we haven't introduced ourselves,"

"Um, right."

"I'm Eros."

"Ugh," He shuffles around the bed.

"Ugh? That's a pretty unique name," I let out a chuckle.

"What? No–My name is Xeno,"

"Xeno. Well, then nice to meet you, Xeno," I casted out a smile.

"Uh, yea. You too."

Is it still awkward for him?

Well, what was I expecting.

He meets a stranger who helped him and now offers him to stay over.

I scratched the nape of my neck before clearing my throat.

"Do you want to take a shower? You'll feel better after one." He pauses before answering.

"Can I?"

"Sure, we have three bathrooms here. So it should be no problem."

"Sorry if I'm asking for much but do you perhaps have any suitable clothes that I can wear for the moment?"

"Ah, right. How tall are you?" I asked before approaching my wardrobe.

He should be able to fit some of my clothes.

"Uhh, somewhere around 6'1,"

Santa Maria–

"Oh-"

"Yea, so I'm sorry to say this but I don't think I'll fit your clothes."

Jesus Christ what did I bring back home.

"Well, I think you'll be able to fit my dad's clothes. Is that fine with you?"

"Um, I'm okay with it but is it okay with him?"

"He'll be fine with it, don't worry."

I stood up before slowly walking towards the door.

"I'll be back. I'm just gonna get a towel and my dad's clothes for you,"

"Okay."

I walked out of my room before quickly walking towards my parents' room.

"Ero? Do you need something?"

"He's huge–"

"Honey, wh-"
