As she trips on her feet, i wrap an arm around her waist to steady her. She squeals.

"heeheheh, your arm is really hard" she grips my forearm. Ok it is not normal for me to think thats a big deal. I just shake my head. "My key is in my thigh strap" she says bending down. I choke on my fucking spit. Thigh strap?

I watch as she lifts her dress a little to reveal a thin black band, going around her thigh with a small pouch attached to it. Oh my lord this girl. She opens the little zip and takes out two keys, attached together. She opens the door then mumbles a yes in triumph.

"You should come up, its no mansion but you can have a cookie, i made them this morning" she says. I should go up, just incase she has trouble with something. I nod and walk in with her closing the door. We walk into the elevator and she presses 4. Laia said she's on the 7th floor.

"Tesoro, thats not your floor" i say to her. She giggles. I press 7 and soon we're at her apartment door. She opens the door and walks in.

"I dont have a kitten" she says sadly, she turns to me with a pout.

"You want a kitten?" i ask her she nods. Instead of elaborating, she starts undoing her shoes. Once she's done she squints at me then turns and comes back with a big ass cookie. Damn i love zia Tania's bakery's cookies. She sent us a big box and i ate 10. I try the cookie and its the same. "You make the cookies at the bakery, sì?" I ask her. She nods. "Delicious"

"Aw, thankyeww" she says sweetly. Cute. I continue staring at her for a while till her yawn breaks me out of my trance.

"Right" i say and she jumps. Why is she so jumpy. "Im going to go now, go to bed" i say to her.

"So bossy" she giggles. I walk closer and she looks up at me. "You're so tall" she says.

"Mm, no youre just small" i say. "go to bed, neonata" i say and she nods solemnly.

"Okay, i will. Bye bye, Niccolo. Thankyou for bringing me home in your bat mobile" she says seriously. Before i can think, i lean in and kiss her head. When i pull back she's blushing bright red. I smirk and leave. I stand outside her door and listen to the lock click in place. She than starts singing and her voice fades.

The fuck is up with me today.

I wake up in bed. I groan at the foul taste in my mouth. I lay there and try to remember last night. Last I remember is the man who was being rude and Laia's cousin helped me. Did we talk? Yeah i think we did.

I dont feel hungover. How much did I drink. I look at my clothes. Im in underwear. I get up and walk to the bathroom. Oh shit. Ew.

I flush the toilet that had puke in it. Thats why i dont feel hungover. I take a shower and change into some sweats. Its sunday, im off today. The bakery is open but only the counter is. The baked goods that Marco makes saturday night are put out and its a half day.

I make myself waffles and eggs cuz im really hungry. As im eating, i look at the time. 12. Oh my i slept alot. As im watching friends, my phone rings. Its Alaia. I pick up.

"hii"

"hey, how are you feeling" she asks me.

"Fine, i dont remember much after the pig tried disgusting stuff" i tell her, drinking my chocolate milk.

"Mm, thats probably a good thing you know. Anyway, Nick dropped you off, youre such a light weight" she says.

"Alessandro told me all about who's a light weight." i say and she gasps.

"meany" i can see her pout. "anyway, you're coming tonight, right?" she asks me. Tonight they are having a party for Angelo's birthday. Its like a small gathering at the mansion, there family, but i doubt the family is small.

"Uh, i dunno Laia, i dont feel like dressing up. Besides, i am so shit with directions and explaining it to a cab driver will be the hardest, plus i have anxiety" i say. Im so stupid.

"Youre cominggg, please, one of the boys is bound to be in the city, ill ask them to bring you now so we can get dressed together, if not ill send a driver" she says. I sigh. Going from no socializing to this is a def change.

"Okay fine, soon your family is gonna start hating me cuz i annoy them so much" i say.

"No they wont, pack your stuff, ill text you about your ride."
