Without me noticing he quickly got out of the car and open the car door for me.
"Thank you fine young man."
"No problem bella."
"Tu parlare Italiano."
"No, ma ho imparato a parlare italiano alla scuola elementare."
"Fai?
"ho imparato alcuni al liceo."
(Translation:
No problem beautiful
Do you speak Italian?
No, but i did learn Italian at primary school
Do you?
I learnt it in high school.)
Where are we going, what's the time it's pretty late and I should get going, so I can drive you back and go to my parents house, then home.
"You see here we are at your parents house, sorry it's a surprise but I knew I would find your parents address saved in your google maps.
"You are one smart man Mr Spurling."
"You can call me Xavier you know."
"Yes I know you doofus."
"Oh by the way I never asked if it was okay to call you Nat."
"Yeah you can, thanks for asking though in fact most people don't call me Nat, you could say I'm not the life of the party."
"Well you're my life of the party and the crowds tonight, we did give them one great encore, there's something I mean after what is technically now our song has played it should end like before."
He kisses me again and this time it's longer than before since we standing near the car and everyone else is probably sleeping. He breaks the kiss so we can get some air.
"It's freezing let me get you inside, after all I can't keep you all to myself."
I open the door and as soon as I walk in the lights are still on. Mum and Dad are watching TV, I'm assuming Zara's in bed. I quietly close the door behind me,
"Mum, Dad I'd like you to meet someone."
"Hi nice to meet you."
"Xavier, my mum and dad, mum and dad, Xavier."
They shake hands and of course go straight to embarrassing me like all parents do.
"Hi Xavier, where Natalie's parents but please call us Kate and John."
"Sure no problem."
My dad stares at Xavier "this is the first boy you've brang home, is he your boyfriend."
"Dad you know I never have time for dating."
"You must have a lot of free time if you visit your folks every couple of days, I mean you've finished college and now writing, surely you could start dating."
"I thought dads we're supposed to prevent their daughters from dating until 30, if I recall you saying to five year old Natalie."
"Well my babies grown up and you know you need to have at least one boyfriend someday."
"I know, I have considered it for maybe the last hour or so after my second kiss."
Mum blurts out "wait what about that crush you had on that boy, I can't quite remember his name. You used to read fanfiction about this singer you liked I think one of his songs were called Silver Lining."
"Mum we have a guest and you're embarrassing me."
"Oh sorry of course dear no wonder that's why your cheeks are bright red."
"If it's okay with you we'll be in my room and I'll go check on Zara for you enjoy whatever movie you were watching."
"Okay honey."
"Sorry I had to get out of there."
"So fanfiction huh"
"No, don't listen to my mother she has no idea what she's talking about."
"I'm pretty sure she would, after all you do spend a time with her."
"Even if I do spend time with her doesn't mean I blurt out weird things so she can embarrass me later!!!"
"So you admit it's true?" he says smirking, why does he have to that he doesn't know how much that affects me.
"I don't know, no comment!"
"So now you are a stalker and a creep who reads fanfictions of me."
"For your information I don't and really talk about my personal life so my sister must have made it up."
"I'll be back let me check on her, you can meet her if you want considering you already met my parents."
I peak at the door not opening it and as soon as I open it half way I can see her quickly pretend to be asleep thinking I'm mum and dad.
"Zara Carmen Perez what are you doing awake??"
She doesn't answer until I walk up to her and tickle her,
"Mum I was sleeping."
"Were you now?"
"Natalie you came, can you read me a story."
"You really did stay up waiting for me."
"Yes I need my favourite sister to read me a story."
I laugh "I'm your only sister."
I realise Xavier actually wanted to meet my sister and now I have to fricken introduce him to my sister who knows exactly who he is."
"I would like you to meet..."
"NO WAY!! Xavier freakin Spurling is here in my room, with you." she says excited and pointing to me.
"Yes, it's a long story, don't worry I can always tell you later."
"Now have you chosen what book you want me to read?"
"Why don't you read one of the fanfictions on that reading app you love, wattpad."
"So that's where mum had the idea, why you little liar you know I don't read fanfiction although I do use wattpad." Of course even Zara just had to make fun of me in front of Xavier.
"Okay now please read this." She hands me a book I haven't yet read before.
"Let me tuck you in and then I'll read."
"I have to quickly go to the bathroom and then Xavier will probably leave to his hotel, or be on the next flight."
I get out of my outfit and wear my favourite pj's then I go to Zara's room. As soon as I walk in I see Xavier reading to my sister. I don't think he would do that to just anyone but then again we met coincidentally in the dark. I knock on the door very quietly not to wake Zara up since she went sound asleep after Xavier finished tucking her in. I go to the bed kissing her on the cheek "sleep tight baby." I turn away from her bed but cannot see him, maybe he left but now I can see him peeking out of Zara's room. "Hi" I whisper as I close the door. "Your parents wanted me to tell you they went to bed." "Thanks for letting me know." I say shyly. I walk him to the kitchen and open up the fridge. "Do you want anything?" "I do have something in mind, but just water for now."
"Not to be rude but don't you have to leave, aren't your team worried about you, I mean you probably have somewhere to be" I blurt out.
"Even if I have somewhere to be I'd rather be here with you."
"I-I just thought you didn't want to be around me for long and rather hang out with your friends, I mean you took me to my parents house so you probably wanted to leave but got stuck here."
"What no, Nat look at me" I can't I just stare at his hands.  I can't look at him or I'll see how sad he must look. "Natalie please look at me I need to explain something to you."
I have a feeling I know what he'll say that he doesn't need me anymore and the kiss was all just for show a tear rolls down my cheek thinking about it. "Don't, I already know what you're going to say." "Woman would you just listen to me!" That makes me giggle softly.
"I wanted to take you here, 1 so I could meet your family and 2 to ask them a very important question." "Which would be?"
"Something I'll have to tell you after, just please trust me after all I do feel like your special to me already, I mean that kiss was the best one I've ever had."
"You really think that."
"Yes now can you look at me and put a face." He gets off the kitchen stool and comes near the sink where I am standing."
"You really are beautiful you know that, I want you to be mine. I've been thinking a lot lately and there's something I need to do for myself, after this of course." He says whispering the last thing in my ear and caressing my cheek, leaving a tingling sensation on the cheek he wiped away my tear. He goes to kiss me and that makes my lips tingle from his being own being on mine.     

"I'm so sorry I just over analysis everything since no one's ever liked or gotten to know me before."  
"Don't apologise but always know that I will never think of you as just somebody you are more than that to me... my first genuine friend."
"Okay enough of this sorry it all got to my head, I mean what did Jay say about me. Gosh he probably hates me, for a good reason though I mean he is your bodyguard."
"You really care about that, we weren't talking about anything bad I swear, I told I really liked you and that I would be with you until whenever I leave plus I staying in Seattle for another day."
"Are you sure he doesn't hate my guts?" He kisses my forehead "of course not he doesn't like to show   much expression but I would say he likes you and he's like a second father to me so he should understand it's time for me to make my own decisions. Now how about you don't worry your pretty little head and we do something fun?" He says, legit the best thing I can think of is doing something he possibly wouldn't have time to do. "Which one would you like Monopoly or Pictionary?"
"Let's play Pictionary, I loved to play that when I was younger."
"Good this is going to be fun we'll go to my room so we don't wake anyone up."
*I would describe them playing Pictionary but I think you get how the game works and how they would be having a good time, lol basically they played Pictionary so yeah {if I have time I will add it it}*
- An hour later –
I didn't realise it was getting late and we kept on yawning and then drifted off to sleep, when I was faintly awake I could see the Pictionary drawings spread over my bed I check my alarm clock and its past 12. I should wake Xavier up but he looked so peaceful laying there in deep sleep, I get this feeling in my stomach
And it makes me nervous I don't want this to end I mean once he leaves who knows when we'll meet me again. I know I'm being selfish but this is something I've never gotten a chance to do, spend time with a friend. I need to face that it will all be over soon, that it's time for me to let go.
