James Bay – Peer Pressure
When we met, innocent
Now I'm dead every time you're touchin' me
You're dancing around on my mind every second
I'm under control till you're in front of me
Maybe I'm scared, I don't care, I'm addicted

I tried to concentrate on the new episode of The Resident, in an attempt to occupy myself instead of thinking about Gian, who is 2 hours late. Though I got a text that he will be running late. So technically, he is one hour late for our lunch together. But Van Gogh has been looking at the door, so I am feeling bad on both our accounts.
I sulk, pushing my face on the cushion. It's crazy, after just three visits from Gian, both Van Gogh and I have become used to his presence. Growing up as an only child, I was used to being lonely. My parents were busy with their successful careers as doctors, the maids in my house did their job correctly, came on time, left on time. And my friends, they would talk to me for hours as long as it concerned shallow topics. So, as a result, I always did my school work on time and took the 8-hour sleep most teenagers were deprived of.
But Gian has wormed his way in both our hearts. A few minutes into my deep overthinking the doorbell rang. Van Gogh's head perked up and he began to yap his tail happily. I practically flew to open the door.
A shrill escaped from my mouth. Gian's face was bruised and battered.
"It's not battered." Gian corrected, chuckling at me. Did I say that out loud? He grasped my shoulders pushing me inside. I walked backward, still gaping at him. How can he be so nonchalant about this? I don't remember the last time I got hurt to the point of this or even scraped my knee. Whilst my unblemished knees look pretty in a dress, they are also a sign of my lonely childhood. But Gian has so many bruises on his torso and back. I noticed them during my quick scanning of his muscled body last night.
