Burr POV

I go home to be welcomed by my sister. I greet her and she does the same to me. I see my uncle and aunt sitting in the dining room. I ask them the question of being able to go to a friend's house. And they accept. I take the things I need. I greet my family before leaving home.

Alexander POV

Burr will be at my place! And my adoptive parents aren't here. They are at the restaurant. It's been so long since he came to my house. I can't wait to see him. He reads me as in an open book. I love him so much.

Ding dong!...

He must be here already. I open the door to see Aaron's beautiful face. His smooth skin, cocoa eyes and lips that I dream to kiss. I let him in. He inspects my house.

"Your parents aren't here?" He asks questioningly.

"No." He nods to signal that he understands. I accompany him to my room.

After a while, we seat to the ground. He brought back sheets of scrambling kit and all that is needed. I do the same.

I propose a long enough idea. He shakes his head quickly. I cross my arms.

"Do you have a better idea?" I ask, sure my idea is good. He shakes his head.

"Alexander, I'm not saying that your idea is bad, but ..." He hesitates.

"But?" I repeat frustrated.

"It's too long," He says.

"What do you mean ? I do only seven lines. " I raise my voice and gesture with my hands.

"But you're still at the beginning of the story." I raise an eyebrow. He sighs.

"I'll give you an example." He stops and searches.

"Let's take Snow White." I laugh, putting a hand in front of my mouth, to stifle a giggle.

You could take any story, and you take a Disney character ?! " He pouted at me. So cute. He stops and continues.

"Well, if we take Snow White. We must remove unnecessary elements. For example: you can remove that the hunter made believe to the queen that he killed Snow White, showing him a heart of beef. And rather than put the hunter to let the princess leave in the forest and made the queen believe that he killed him. Or the names of the 7 little dwarfs, it is useless to know their names. It is necessary to put sentences that advance the story, which makes us want to read it; often can put suspense. For example: instead of saying that the prince wakes the princess of a sweet kiss. You could put...That she got poisoned by eating an apple, by her mother who disguised herself as a sleeping lady. The princess falls into a deep sleep. And that the 7 dwarfs put it in a glass coffin. And instead of saying the end; you can put a question instead. Like...Will the princess wake up one day? You see ?"

He explains so well. With every gesture he made, I fell into his eyes. I was a little embarrassed, because I'm supposed to be the smartest and seeing him help me was a little ... embarrassing.

" Yes, I do."

"Sorry. I'm talking too much, " He says, avoiding my eyes. I shake my head to signal that it's good.

We continue to exchange ideas. We finish rather late. It is 5:50 pm As soon as we finish. Aaron arranges his things. I do the same.

BOUM!

Oh! No, not that.
