After an awkwardly silent drive to Esteban's apartment in the tow truck, Maddie's eyes started to get heavy once again. As soon as she reached the front step she almost felt like she was falling to the floor slowly.
"Whoa, Maddie, careful...just wait a few more seconds and we will be inside." Esteban said while catching Maddie before she fell. It might have been the fact that her response had slowed down due to tiredness or the comfort of Esteban's arms, but she didn't move for almost a minute until they slowly walked into Esteban's living room.
"You would probably like to change or something." Esteban stated awkwardly
"Umm, yeah…I guess…"
"Well, I do not think I have any thing that will fit you, but you can borrower some clothes for the night while I wash your clothes."
"Sure, I'd guess that'd be good." Maddie yawned. After Esteban went to his room and grabbed a pair of his clothes to give her for the night, Maddie thanked him and went to the bathroom to get changed.
As Maddie turned on the light to the bathroom she looked around. There wasn't much of a difference from any normal guys bathroom, except for a little picture of Dudley and Esteban posing in there little matching bellboy costumes.
Soon after Maddie changed she walked back to the living room to find the pull out couch set up and yes, Dudley was curled up in the top corner fast asleep. She pulled the covers over her and after a few minutes she was curled up in a ball holding Dudley, fast asleep.
Esteban, after finally getting the laundry started, walked into the living room to check on Maddie. As soon as he turned the corner he saw Maddie asleep with his pet chicken and it made his heart practically melt. He sudden felt like he should have said something a long time ago.
He also felt like he should of done something a long time ago.
Esteban made up his mind.
"If there is one thing" Esteban decided "I have to do, is to tell her that I love her. Soon, or one day it might be too late."
