I sitted on the couch as Jazmin opened the door. I think I was developing an OCT, because I organized all the DVDs in alphabet order while I heart her voice. Oh my God, she was here.

I faced her, smiling and got up from the couch.

"Hello, Julia."

"Hello, Renata" – I couldn't stop smiling. She noticed it, of course.

"I… I guess I came early but its just because I thought Jazmin would need some help and… I don't know, home was boring, you know." – She lightly stroked her head, messing up her hair. Her bangs were split in half. God, look at her face. Stunning face. It looks like she just jumped out from a Renaissance paiting. Just beautiful. She has this beautiful squared face that just makes you wanna kiss it all the time.

Control yourself, I thought.

"Ha, I understand you. Home is boring. Especially when you just moved from another state and still have all your things packed in a box. I just was too lazy to unpack stuff." – I smiled.

We sitted on the couch while Jazmin went to the kitchen.

"Oh, Claire told me. Remember Claire, the Principal?" – She smiled, looking at me.

I couldn't believe we were just having a conversation! What a huge step! From nothing to something! I am something in her life, right now! And she knows my name! Yay!

"Yeah, I remember." – What a victory! I paid attention on what she was saying. Oh, wait. They talked about me. Which means she knows a few things about me. ME.

Stop fangirling, stupid.

"I think you know already about me, right? So… You're brazilian…" – I watched her cross her legs. God damn it. Long legs. So white. And this black skirt isn't helping.

"Yeah, I am. I've been living here since I was eighteen. And now I am thirty three. Its been a long time. I guess you're wondering why I moved out from the beautiful city of Rio to the cold Minneapolis. Well, I fell in love for this guy and… You know, sometimes things just don't work out the way we plan it to work, right? And I was young and naïve. But here I am." – I could see through Renata's eyes that she suffered a lot in the past. All I wanted to do was to hug her tight. And never let her go.

Let me make you happy, beautiful lady…

"I had a relationship like this once. Totally crap. But we get through." – I warmly smiled at the gorgeous heart broken woman I was staring at.

"Are you seeing someone, Julia?"

That was an innocent question, obviously. But it made my heart race again.

"I'm…"

I was interrupted from my beautiful fairytale when Jazmin appeared with hers friends. I could see Mark next to the table. How did the house got so full so quicky?

Two pizzas weren't enough. We had to order more two.

Movies were great. I was sad Renata was sit on the other couch. Jazmin made it clear that we had to sit together because she was scared. Well, Renata was scared too…

When the second movie finished, Renata was the first to talk.

"I gotta go, guys. Work tomorrow soon and… Well Mark, you should get going too." – She smiled at her very good friend. They seemed to get along very well.

"Why do I have to get a cab, Jesus, why?" – Without thinking, I just complained.

"Wanna come with me, Julia? I believe your house isn't far away from here." – Renata looked at me. I wasn't believing she was offering me a ride home.

"Oh, I don't wanna bother you…"

"Not a problem at all, silly. Come with me. Come on."

Jazmin and I locked eyes and her faces were just comics.

When we were in the car I felt uncomfortable. I just didn't know how to act.

"Movies were great. What a pity Mark was with his girlfriend and I had to sit alone." – Renata looked at me for a second.

"I see you and Mark are very good friends." – I made a note.

"Yeah, he is like my best friend. My buddy, whatever you call this. I mean, since I started dating girls he's been the one on my side, you know."

Wait. Stop the world. What did she just say? Dating girls? Am I in Heaven or what?

"Girls?" – I didn't mean to say it too loud but…

"Yeah. Oh." – I could feel she was embarrassed.

"Its on the next left. The green building." – I said, guiding her.

One minute passed.

"So, here we are."

"You asked me if I was seeing someone." – I swallowed dry. – "I am not."

"And…?" – She stared at me. I stared at the floor.

"I date girls too, just so you know." – I said. Then I realized I sound desperate and incoherent. – "But, but…"

She kissed me. Oh my God. She kissed me.

With her hand on my neck and everything. I could feel the other wanting to come closer.

I kissed her back. I just couldn't believe this was happening.

Her lips were so delicate and her breath smelled like vanilla. Somehow it smelled like vanilla. I wanted more.

But she stopped.

"I… I better go home. See you tomorrow," – She tossed. – "Mrs. Hammilton"

I left the car without saying a word and when I entered home I felt like the most lucky person in the world.
