Zoe POV

Over the course of the evening I had gotten to know alot about Damian and found we had quite a bit in common. We had stayed out quite late becuase we had literally lost track of time we had enjoyed each others company that much.

I had decided rather than call Dolph I would swing by his room so that he could see I was fine, although I was pretty sure he would be suspicious of the smile that hadn't left my face since I left Damian.

I knock gently and the second the door opens he grabs my arm and yanks me into the room, he closes the door and immediately begins checking me over.

"Dude what the hell are you doing?" I ask stepping back from him.

"Checking you over I told you I don't trust him" he says

"Im absolutely fine, I had a really nice time and he's actually really sweet" I smile

"Yeah right" he laughs "saying he's sweet is like saying my farts smell of roses, it's not possible"

"That is a really gross analogy" I say turning my nose up "and it is possible, not about your farts, but about him, he's lovely"

"Oh uh uh I know that smile, you like him" he says "Zo he is no good for you"

"Yes I like him but not in the way you think" I say just as my phone pings.

Damian: Thanks for a nice evening

I was well aware that I was smiling at my phone like an idiot and that Doloh was staring at me but right now I didn't care, Damian had literally just proven my point, he was sweet.

"I just don't want to see you get hurt" he says "he's dangerous"

"I trust him Zigs" I say "so please just trust me on this"

"I always trust you" he says "want me to walk you to your room?" He asks

"No I'm good but thank you" I say "I'll see you tomorrow"

Heading back to my room I reply to Damian as I walk

Me: It should be me thanking you

Damian: For what?

Me: Being a complete gentleman, I had a really nice time

Damian: You're welcome, did you get back to your room OK?

Me: Yeah I'm here, all good

Damian: Good, sleep well princesa

Me: Goodnight D

Well that was new, that was the first time he had called me princesa and I'm not going to lie I like it. For the life of me I just couldn't understand why no one else could see this side of him.

Next morning

Zoe POV

Sitting in the gym I roll my eyes as Dolph practices his ass wiggle for the hundredth time. Why he had to continually practice this is beyond me.

"Can you do something else please" I groan "I have no desire to see you wiggle your ass anymore"

"Yeah yeah you love it" he chuckles "just like you love me" he says throwing a towel at me

"Yeah and you're lucky I do" I laugh

"Good morning princesa"  a familiar deep voice says from behind me

"Hey good morning D" I smile "how are you?"

"I'm good" he smiles " was just going to work out and thought I would say hi"

"Can I come watch?" I ask instantly knowing how bad that sounds "I can't watch him do that anymore" I chuckle motioning towards Dolph

"Ew I'm not suprised" he says "of course you can be my guest"

I follow Damian over to a different area of the gym and take a seat on a bench, he leaves his stuff with me before starting rep's. I watch as his bicep increases in size each time he lifts the weight and I find myself transfixed.

"You know I was thinking about Stephanie wanting us to get to know each other" he says "the best way would be to hang out outside of this environment, I had an idea but I know drama queen over there won't let you do it"

"He may be my best friend but he doesn't make my decisions for me" I say "what's your idea?"

"Well we have some down time coming up" he says "so I was wondering if you would like to stay with me? It....it's ok if you don't want to, it was just an idea, but we can think of something else"

"No I think that's a good idea" I say "I think we should do it"

"Really? You want to stay with me?" He asks looking a little unsure "please don't feel like you can't say no, I will never make you do anything you don't want to do"

"Yes I want to, if I didn't I'd say" I smile "D I'm not like everyone else, I don't think what they think, please don't think I do"

"I'm sorry princesa" he smiles "I'm just not used to people wanting to spend time around me"

"So where do you live?" I ask "where are you whisking me off to?"

"New york" he smiles "but I also have a home in Puerto Rico, maybe one day I'll take you there"

"Sounds good" I smile "so I'll go to New York with you and next down time you can stay with me"

"Deal" he smiles

"There you are" Dolph says interrupting us "don't disappear on me like that.........really you're with him?" He asks as he notices Damian

"me voy, hasta luego princesa (I'm going to go, see you later princess)" Damian says

"Vendré a verte más tarde (I'll come see you later)" I reply and he nods before grabbing his stuff and leaving.

"See what you did?" I snap "can't you just be nice?"

"But he.....alright fine for you I will try" he says

"Thank you" I say "I don't want my time in New York with him to be spoiled because I'm mad at you"

"You're going toNew York with him?" He asks and I glare at him "Ok I won't judge, just promise me you will be careful"

"I always am" I smirk and his eyebrows raise

"That is not what I meant and you know it" he laughs

"I know and I'll be fine I promise" I say "I trust him"

"You always do see the best in everyone" he smiles "that's why you're my bestie"
