After I left Caro's house, I went to my apartment to pack my clothes for tomorrow and head to Pedri's.

As soon as I got to his apartment, I parked my car and headed towards his door. I knocked, waiting for an answer. I knocked again, but nothing.

As I was about to turn around and head back to my car, the door flies opened, revealing a very amused Pedri. 'You should've seen your face.' he said laughing.

'Was that funny to you?' I asked, my eyebrows frowned. 'Seriously?' my expression was blank.

'Woah, Irina, I'm just kidding.' he said, his expression an apologetic one, trying to grab my arm. 'I'm sorry, I di—'

'You should've seen your face, asshole.' I started laughing, his face relaxing, his usual smile appearing on his face.

'You got me there.' he said grabbing my arm and dragging me inside. 'And what the hell is that?' he said pointing at my bag, laughing.

'I, erm...' embarrassment took over, as I didn't even let him know about my plan to stay over at his place. 'Well, I went home and grabbed some clothes because I thought I could crash here since we're going to the same place tomorrow.' I rushed through my words, my cheeks heating up. 'I'm sorry, I should've asked before.'

'I don't get why you don't leave some stuff of yours here.' he said smiling. 'No kidding. I'm serious.' he said raising his hands in defence. 'There's nothing wrong with friends having clothes at eachother's houses.' he said quietly, our faces inches apart.

'Indeed.' I smiled and gently pushed him away from me.

After talking about my day with Davi and what happened in the morning at the training centre, Pedri went and grabbed a black hoodie, putting it on.

'What now?' I smiled.

'I'm trying to match you.' he said pointing at me.

I was wearing a pair of black joggers and a black hoodie, my hair up in a ponytail. Before grabbing his black hoodie, Pedri was also wearing a black pair of joggers and a brown t-shirt. But now we were completely matching.

'I was going to change.' I laughed.

'Too late. We're going out.' he said grabbing my arm and leading me out the apartment.

'No car today?' I asked as soon as we got outside.

'Nope.' he shook his head smiling.

We were making small talk, until Pedri went completely silent, stopping in front of a florist's. This was probably the biggest flower shop I have ever seen, and it was still opened, the time being 22:50pm.

'Are we just going to stare at it?' I asked chuckling.

'No, we're going in.' he smiled, grabbing my hand.

There were 9 isles, each isle full of different flowers, the smells mixing into one big fragrance.

'This place is huge.' I said shocked. 'Have you been here before?' I asked him.

'No.' he shook his head, taking us through the end isle towards the garden section. 'I never had a reason to.' he winked at me, making me roll my eyes while chuckling.

'Okay, that's nice.' I said mockingly. 'What are we even looking for?'

'What's your favourite flower?' he asked, pulling me into the isle because I walked past him.

'Tulips.' I answered.

'Then that's what we're looking for.' he said abruptly stopping, my body bumping into his.
