STAR'S POV
"Logan?" I call, knocking gently on the door before opening it and peeking in.
"Why knock if you're just going to come in?" I hear and see her standing by her drawer, taking out a plain white shirt
"Well technically I'm still not inside" I joke and she turns to me and shakes her head
"Smart mouth" she says, putting on her shirt and going to sit on her bed and I smile
"So can I come in?" I ask, my tone extra polite
"No" she says simply
"Thanks" I say, coming in and shutting the door behind me
"You never listen"
"Didn't you say to come in? I heard yes" I tease and she chuckles
"Hm" she hums only
"You seem to be in a good mood" I say, leaning against the wall, not sure if she'd appreciate me sitting on her bed
"Do I?"
"Yeah. You haven't asked me to get out yet and it's been more than I minute since I came in" I say and she chuckles
"Didn't I tell you not to come in?" She asks
"I don't know what you're talking about" I say with a small laugh
"Don't you want to sit?"
"Now you're offering me a place to sit?" I ask, dramatizing my surprise
"Fine, don't sit" she says
"I'll sit" I say, coming to sit next to her on the bed "So what's made you so happy?" I ask and she shrugs
"I can't just be happy to be alive? To have woken up to a new day?" She asks with a serious face that soon breaks into a smile when I raise a brow
"What?"
"I don't know either, that was out of the blue" she says and I chuckle
"You're funny"
"I know" she says, laying down with her arms acting like a pillow behind her head
"I like you like this"
"Don't get used to it, I still find you annoying" she says
"I see. So what's so annoying about me?" I ask, adjusting on the bed so I can look at her properly
"I don't know, I just find you annoying" she says
"Just find me annoying" I relay to myself "I don't know how to fix that"
"I don't think you can, I think it's just an attachment to you" she says
"That's mean"
"It's an honest opinion"
"It's still mean"
"Why did you come here? Surely, not to have a chat" she says, sitting up again
"Actually, I came for that" I say and she raises a brow
"Really?"
"Really. I'd like to have a proper conversation with the woman I so dearly love and I'm grateful for" I say and she laughs
"And I'm funny" she says still laughing and I can't help the smile that pulls at my lips
"Is it that funny?"
"With the woman I so dearly love and I'm grateful for" she repeats, still laughing "God, I should have taken a recording"
"It wasn't meant to be funny but I'm glad you find it humorous" I chuckle, brushing my hair off my face
"Okay seriously, why are you here?"
"I told you, I just wanted to talk" I say and she nods
"What about?"
"Nothing specifically. Honestly, we don't have to talk, can I just sit here with you?" I ask and she says nothing for brief seconds
"Why?"
"So I can try to read your mind while you ignore me" I say and I smile when I successfully cause her to
"Do you think you can read my mind?" She asks laying down
"I can make myself believe I can. Isn't that what matters?" I ask, feeling a little bold and laying on the bed too and she turns away from the ceiling to meet my eyes
"I suppose it is" she says, her eyes searching mine
"Your eyes are gorgeous" I say quietly
"I know" she says and I can't help but laugh lightly
"I'm sure you do, you get to see them everyday in the mirror but I suppose I'm lucky as well cause I get to see them too" I say and a smile pulls at her lips the same time she squints her eyes in suspicion?
"Are you here to sweet talk me?"
"What if I am?" I ask back and she laughs
"Go ahead then, I'll take the sincere compliments and throw away the rest" she says and I chuckle
"You'll do that huh?"
"I will" she answers simply "I'm hungry"
"That's probably because you haven't eaten all day. I actually thought you were out cause I didn't see you in the morning or afternoon. It was when I saw your car outside that I realized you just might be at home but locked in your castle" I say
"Castle?"
"Castle"
"Want to go eat out?" She asks
"You mean me and you?"
"Are you feigning stupidity right now?" She asks with the raise of a brow and the honest curiosity in her voice makes me clear my throat
"I was just surprised is all" I say quietly
"So do you want to?"
"Yeah, yeah I do" I smile and she nods
"Go get ready, I'll be downstairs" she says and I nod, though I make no attempt to get off the bed or to stop studying the beauty that were her eyes
I probably am in love with them by now.
They were just so bright and gorgeous.
Mostly cold and holding annoyance but beautiful.
"Are you going to keep staring?" She asks
"Should I stop?" I tease, managing to hide my embarrassment at the fact that I was openly staring and then got caught
"No, go on" she says, surprising me and I clear my throat awkwardly
"I'll go get ready" I say, getting up from the bed and she chuckle but says nothing as I make my way out the room, shutting the door behind me.
