I woke in a completely different bed than usual. Where am I? I got out of bed and walked into the hall to the door across from it. I opened it to see Eros's room. Oh, I'm in Eros's house, great. I look in and Eros is gone and so is his bow and arrow that were on the wall. Well it looks like morning outside so I'm going to go get dressed. I put on black skinny jeans, a pink collared shirt, and white converse. I then walk to the bathroom next to his room. I put makeup on then put my hair in a bun. I walk out and go downstairs. Ms. Sarah is in the living room watching tv.

"Hello Ms. Sarah I'm just going to walk to starbucks and stay there for a little while, would you like anything" I ask her as I open the door to walk outside.

"No I don't need anything" she says, so I walk out the door. I go to my house first so I can get a book. I look threw my shelves and see "The Fault in Our Stars" I take it out of the book shelf. I look at it for a little while. It is about a boy and girl that fall in love the girl doesn't think they can be together at first . I love it so much that the pages are worn out from me reading it so much. I sigh with it in my arms and walk downstairs of my house to go to Starbucks. I open the front door to see Eros in a knocking position. I smile at him as he puts his fist down. A tear slips down my face because I was just thinking about the beautiful book. He brings his hand up and wipes it away with the pad of his thumb witch suprises me at first but he gives me a warm smile.

"Umm....I heard you were going to Starbucks and I thought it would be safe if I walked with you" he says looking at the ground. I close the door to my house and turn back around to be an inch away from his face.

"That would be okay" I say looking in to his brown eyes.

"Okay" he says looking at the book in my hands. I blush and walk past him. He walks on the side of me as I walk on the sidewalk. As we walk his hair blows in the wind as I hear his black converse hitting the ground. We pass a guy playing the violin and throw a five dollar bill in his case for it.

"So do you always walk to Starbucks" Eros says on the side of me after the little while of quietness.

"Ya, I just like to go there to breath and get my head cleared, I spend a lot of time there so I bring a book with me" I say lifting up the book in my hand.

"Do you do anything else on weekends" he asks me as we turn a corner.

"No, not really I only have Arthur and Percy as friends so..." I say then sigh at the end. As we walk to Starbucks the sidewalk starts to get a little slippery. I slip in a big puddle so I close my eyes and brace for impact but it never comes. Eros has both hands on my waist. I stand up on my own and he lets go. We walk in to the Starbucks place and I get a mocha. Eros doesn't get anything. We sit at a booth and I open my book and read a little. When I am reading the book I notice Eros playing on his phone but he also looks at me watching my facial expressions. He frowns when he sees me frown and he smiles when he sees me smile. When I am done with my drink he takes it and throws it away for me. He takes the book from me and puts it in his leather jacket. We walk down the side walk again. My hands are by my sides but one of Eros hands touches mine for a moment and I look at him. He then sends me a weak smile as I do the same. Our hands get closer and closer till he grabs my hand while entwining our fingers. I look down at our hands and smile to myself. We walk to his house in complete silence. He walks close to my side. He stares at me the whole time but he doen't know that I know he is. We get to his house and his mom is asleep on the couch. He is still holding my hand as he closes the fron't door. He walks me upstairs to the guest room and hands me my book back. I open my door a little with him rubbing my hand.

"Get some sleep Psyche, goodnight" he says to me as he lets go. He walks in his room and closes his door as I do the same. I lean on the back of the door and sigh in happiness.

"Wow" I say with a smile on my face. Little did I know he was doing the same thing but his was different.

As Eros slides down the door he curls up in to a ball and cries with tears rolling down his face.

"I'm sorry Psyche" he says looking at his knees in sadness, anger, and scared at what will happen when she remembers the party. He looks at his bow and arrow.

"Why" he mumbles as he tastes the saltiness of his tears. He then falls asleep on the floor as his tears soak his clothes like he had been standing in the rain.
