Elena's POV
"YAY!" I tackle Mia into a bone crushing hug. "We're going to London girl!"
"How amazing is that?" She shouts and we jump up and down like little toddlers.
"I'm so excited!" I squeal and she gives me an approving nod before leaving my house.
"Woah careful," Diego chuckles as Mia flies out of my porch. "Hey neighbor."
It's been a week and Diego has been making sure I was never upset. I barely got time to dwell on things because of his 'get busy and stop thinking' agenda he planned out. It either involved all of our friends or just him and I. And my feelings for him may or may not have gotten stronger, shh.
"Well hello sir, come in." I fake a surprisingly good British accent and gesture for him to step inside.
He stares at me before furrowing his eyebrows, "Or how about this." He picks me up bridal style, blowing a raspberry in my neck. I arch my back and dip my head backwards in laughter.
"Hey put me down!" I say in between laughs as we ascend the stairs. "We didn't even close the front door."
"I don't care about the front door." He says as he places me on the bed and hovers above me leaning his body weight on his arms.
"And what do you care about?" I grin at him and he nears in closer, very close. His proximity sends shivers down my spine and butterflies go off in my stomach.
He gives me a dazzling look, staring intently into my blue eyes. His hazel grey ones are hypnotizing, it's easy for one to get lost in them. Thank the heavens I'm laying down because I feel weak. He's making me feel so weak, like I'm at his mercy.
"You, I care about you." he begins. He closes his eyes gently and lifts my chin upwards. Our lips brush and my heartbeat is increasing into worrying levels. I feel like I'm floating helplessly in heaven. On a cloud, with the guy I now call my crush. With the guy I'm willing to risk getting hurt for, with the man I'm allowing myslef to fall in love with. That's just the thing, falling in love is inevitable.
I tried to stay away, I tried to forget him but no matter how smart my brain plays trying to protect me, my heart is begging me to realise that Diego is my one and only one protector. Just that one lip brush accelerated feelings I never knew I possess. A love I never knew I could hold for somebody. A love that's reserved for him and only him.
I open my eyes and find that he's doing the same before leaning in once again, cupping my cheek into his palm, breathing gently.
"Hey Elena I forgot my keys!" Mia says and the door flies open. Diego jumps off of me in an instant and I place a hand to my heart because she scared the hell out of me. "Did I interrupt something?"
"Nothing at all." Diego grumbles from beside me and Mia mouths a 'sorry' before taking her keys and exiting the room in a hurry. Great now you just left me and it's all awkward, thanks girl!
I could've kissed him! I should've kissed him! Did he want to kiss me?
"Hey princessa," Diego begins awkwardly and I fiddle with my fingers. "I'm auditioning for a role of the angel, can you tell me what it's like?"
My face breaks into a smile as I laugh.
"What time do you have to get back to heaven?" He laughs with me making the situation a whole lot lighthearted.
"Hell is my residence actaully." I smirk.
"That would explain why you're so hot then." He smiles and my heart wants to jump out of my chest. He's just fooling around, he doesn't mean it.
