Four months of going on fake dates, sharing fake pictures and acting like we were madly in love were extremely exhausting and still Benito and I were both not tired of our roles yet. It was a Friday night and any other person our age would've gone out, but no not us. So far we had not talked about the kiss, but Aubrey had assured me that when the time came, Benito would definitely talk about it. We were sitting on my couch, deciding which movie to watch. Out of boredom, I had asked him if he wanted to come over since I knew that he was in LA. Yawning, I looked through Netflix, but it was hard to pick a movie because I had watched almost everything that I had wanted to see and it was the same with Benito. "Why don't we just watch one of the new releases?" he suggested, sighing. Nodding, I clicked on the next best one and put the remote onto the coffee table. I wrapped myself up in the blanket. "I'm hungry." I said halfway through the movie. "Then make yourself something?" Benito answered, chuckling. Slowly, I got up from the couch and walked over into my kitchen. Even though I had plenty of food in the fridge, I was way too lazy to cook something, so I closed it and walked back over to the living room. "I want a burger." I told Benito, letting myself fall onto the couch. He looked at me confused. "Let's go to In N' Out?" I then suggested. "At 2 am?" he asked, pausing the movie. "Yup!" I answered, popping the p. Shaking his head, he got up from the couch. Smiling, I headed over to my door, put on my shoes and grabbed my keys. On our way to my car, we decided to take the burgers and eat them at my apartment. 

"How can you stay so skinny, eating that much?" Benito asked, when we arrived at the drive through of the restaurant. "I don't eat much." I answered, chuckling. "Oh, really? All I ever see you do is eat and sleep. If you're not eating, you're sleeping and vise versa." he stated. As I wanted to answer, I was interrupted by the voice of the cashier coming from the speaker next to my car's window. I quickly ordered our food and then turned back to Benito. "That's not all I do! I also go to work, I read a lot, I meet up with friends and I like to go horseback riding." I told him. "Horseback riding?" he questioned. "Yeah, I have two horses. Have you never looked at my Instagram?" I wanted to know slowly. "When was the last time you posted something about them?" he counter questioned, pulling out his phone. "I don't know, it's been quite a while." I answered, shrugging. "And when did you see them the last time?" he asked. "Oh, they're on my parents' ranch." I replied. I visited my parents every two or three days, depending on how long my days on set were and if I was in LA or not, and Benito knew that. After a couple of minutes, I handed the cashier the money and grabbed the bag with the burgers in it. Benito took it from me and thanked the man in the window. "Could I take a picture with you guys?" the young man asked shyly. "Sure!" I answered, smiling. He pulled his phone out, turned around and took a selfie with the both of us in the back. He thanked us and then we drove off. 

Benito looked out of the window while we were driving through the city. "I thought you wanted to go home?" he asked, when we pulled up at a parking lot from which you could see LA. "Nah, I wanted to show you something." I answered, gesturing towards the view. Before he looked at it, he handed me my burger. Slowly, I started eating. It was quiet, but I enjoyed the silence. "Hannah, can I ask you something?" Benito started a conversation, when he had finished his burger. "Sure." I answered, grabbing some fries from the bag. "How come you haven't found a guy yet?" he wanted to know. The question that I hated so much - at least, when interviewers and my family asked about it -, but I didn't mind telling him. "I don't know. Ever since my ex broke up with me, I seem to only attract assholes and I rather stay single than be in an unhappy relationship." I answered, shrugging. "Assholes?" he wondered. "Whenever I meet a guy, they seem nice in the beginning and then turn out to either only want my money or they start lying to me about other girls. Plus, I need a lot of trust and a friendship before I can even think about loving someone and a lot of guys just don't want to wait." I explained. "I'm sorry to hear that." he commented. "It's alright, I'm happy being alone. And you? Why are you single?" I then wanted to know. "I guess because of the same reasons. There's always something about the girls I meet and I tend to compare them to my ex." he told me, looking at the city. I nodded slowly and took a sip from my cup of coke. After we had eaten, we decided to go back home. "I can drop you off at the hotel if you want me to." I offered him, when we drove back into town. "Honestly, I'd rather not be alone tonight." he mumbled. Smiling, I nodded at him. When we entered my apartment, I pulled out my phone. On our way home, Benito had taken a picture of his hand on my thigh with my phone and I had asked him to post it.

"What are you doing?" Benito asked, when I carried a pillow and a blanket into the living room. "I'll sleep on the couch and you get the bed." I answered, putting the pillow onto the couch. "Don't be silly! It's your bed!" he said, sitting down on it. "But you're my guest." I replied, crossing my arms over my chest. "Or we could both sleep in the bed, I mean, technically we're a couple." he suggested, shrugging. Sighing, I nodded and picked the pillow up again. Chuckling, he followed me into the bedroom. While Benito had already laid down on the bed, I went into the bathroom to brush my teeth and to get changed.
