STAR'S POV

"Thank you for dinner, it was really nice" I say as Logan opens the door to my room, helping me in

I really can't wait to take off the cast but thankfully in a couple days, I'll be able to.

"It's fine. I had fun" she says and I smile

"Me too. I had a lot of fun" I say

"Good" she smiles "Congratulations on your job again"

"Thank you"

"You're welcome"

"Okay" I say quietly, not quite sure what to say again as we just stood staring at each other

"Well, I'll head to my room now. You should get some rest" she says and I nod

"Okay. You too" I say and she nods

"Goodnight" she says

"Goodnight" I say, placing my hand on her arm and raising myself a little so my lips touch her cheek briefly and I can't help the smile on my face when I see that on hers when I return to my feet properly

"I'll go now" she says and I nod before watching her leave the room, shutting the door behind her and I'm left there, stood in the middle of the room and grinning like a teenage girl who just got asked to the prom by her crush

How can something that is so obviously clear won't work out feel so fucking good and warm?

Like every time she holds me in her arms, I just want to remain there forever cause it feels so good to have her against my body.

To have her hold me like that.

It feels really good, just standing there in front of her and just looking.

Just studying the gorgeous features of her face.

Just...

Okay, please snap out of it. I scold myself as I limp to my bed and lay down.

I should just sleep.

A week later🌼

"Hi" I greet, taking off my jacket as I walk in and shut the door behind me.

"Logan?" I call, after I don't get a response to my greeting. I know she's home cause the door wasn't locked and her car is outside.

Deciding she's probably in her room, I make my way over to the kitchen, nearly pissing myself when I see her stood motionless by the island

One of these days, she'll give me a heart attack.

"Hey, I thought you were upstairs" I say, going to get some water from the fridge

"Okay" she says only before walking out of the kitchen and I can't help but frown in confusion

Okay, did I do something wrong before I left for work?

I walk out the kitchen and decide to go freshen up first before returning to her and so I head upstairs immediately, giving her a brief glance, where she laid on the couch

It's about 25 minutes before I take a shower, dress up and put some things in order before returning downstairs and sitting on the couch, not sure how to address the woman laid on the couch opposite me.

Maybe it's not me?

I mean why would it be me who made her upset?

Why would I even think it has anything to do with me? Am I a narcissist now?
