Then it was already Saturday, Sarah dropped him at our house on the way to the mall.

"Hey, dwarf."

"I'm still as tall as you.", I crossed my arms.

"I know I'm just kidding.", he smiled.

"Let's go to my room then.", I said and walked up the stairs.

"Don't really get why your sister wants us to do a game night."

"Sarah?"

"Yeah."

"She's not my sister."

"Wait what?"

"She's my cousin, she just lives with us since she was a small kid."

"Oh, what happened to her parents?"

"Long story, but her father left for a younger woman and her mom became a drug addict, both lost custody and now she's here."

"How old are you?"

"24."

"You look way younger."

"Thanks, I guess. Wonder why she didn't tell you anything."

"We're not that close yet."

"Don't tell her then or I'm dead."

"Sure, we don't want you dead right?"

"No."

I opened the door to my room, picked up some clothes I forgot to fold.

"So, what do you want to play? I got an Xbox, a PlayStation and a Wii."

"And apparently no friends."

"Ey!", I threw a pillow at him.

"You have Mario Kart?"

"Of course, I have Mario Kart."

"Nice. I warn you I never lose."

"Neither do I.", I smiled and jumped on my bed.

"I will destroy you.", he sat next to me.

"We'll see about that."

"You play with the mushroom?"

"Yeah."

"Fits your hairstyle."

"Shut up.", I slapped his arm with a smile.

We played a few minutes, and of course, I was winning. At the end of the cup, it was two for me and two for him.

"Looks like no one is better."

"Or we battle to see who the right winner is."

"There is only one way to find out."

"Rainbow boulevard?"

"Rainbow boulevard."

"You'll regret that."

"Say that again when they have to stop you from falling to earth."

"I was about to win when he distracted me."

"Is your hair as fluffy and soft as it looks?", he apparently checked my hair, I was lying on my stomach, so it was easy for him to see it.

"Huh? Yeah. Kinda fluffy."

"Can I touch it?"

"No."

"Why not?"

"Why yes?", I didn't look up from the screen.

"Because I'm curious."

"And I told you it is, no need to touch it."

He didn't answer but a few seconds later I felt two of his fingers on my neck, slowly moving up to my hair, playing with the small curls in the back. It felt nice but I tried to ignore it. Just a few moments later he buried his whole hand in my hair, ruffling and pulling it gently. I immediately relaxed and let my head fall on the bed, enjoying the head massage.

"It is fluffy. And I won.", he laughed.

"What?! Oh, come on! That's not fair!"

"Is it my fault you got distracted?"

"Yes! Because you started it.", I didn't stand up.

"But you liked it."

"Maybe a little bit."

"No one can resist a head massage.", he continued playing with my hair.

I turned on my side and looked at him, still pulling some single curls.

"Your hair is very pretty."

"So is your face. F*CK!", I covered my mouth and hit the hard ground.

"Are you okay?", he looked over the edge of the bed.

"Yeah.", I rubbed my head. I sat up and looked at him, laughing.

"I'm such a mess today."

"Today?, he laughed too."

"We should get food."

"Yeah let's go."
