Waking up being cuddled by Joe is a nice way to wake up.

"Morning Minxie," Joe smiled.

"Morning," I grinned, turning around to face him.

"You're very pretty," Joe said playfully.

"You too," I winked jokingly.

"I'm not 'pretty'!" Joe defended, "I'm handso-"

"You're right... You're ugly," I laughed jokingly.

"Why are you so mean?" Joe playfully pouted.

"Because I like you," I laughed.

Joe rambled on about how that doesn't make sense before I shut him up by leaning in and giving him a kiss. Joe pulled me on top of him and we continued kissing.

"Minx," Joe breathed.

I broke the kiss slowly and smiled against Joe's lips. I put my hair in a pony-tail and slowly littered small kisses on Joe's lips before getting up.

"Can I use the shower?" Joe asked.

"Of course," I nodded.

"Wanna join?" Joe teased.

"Tempting," I laughed.

Joe shrugged his shoulders, smiling, before closing the bathroom door and starting the shower.

"Joe, stop!" I laughed.

"But Minxie!" Joe teased, as he continued.

I was cleaning up the kitchen and Joe was sat on the counter and whenever I would walk past him he would pull me between his legs and kiss my neck.

"You know you like it," Joe teased.

"Maybe," I smirked, turning around to kiss him.

I finished cleaning the kitchen and Joe and I messed around. Joe picked me up, carried me to the sofa, and threw me down playfully. I pulled him on top of me and gave him a small kiss before getting up and going to my room to get dressed. To which, of course, Joe followed.

Before changing, I checked my phone and saw a missed call from my mum. I decided to call her back. Joe sat on my bed as I rang her.

"Hello Minx!" My mum cheered through the telephone.

"Hi Mum, how is it?"

"Brilliant! Very warm and relaxing! How are you at home?"

"I'm good, I've been hanging out with Joe a lot and he's been staying here because I get a little frightened at night in the huge house," I explained.

"How fun!" My mum smiled, "I hope you're using protection!"

"Oh my gosh Mum! No!" I laughed, blushing from embarrassment.

Joe shot me a confusing look.

"No, as in you're not using protection? Minx, if you get pregn-"

"No, as in we're not having sex!" I said quickly into the phone as Joe laughed before winking jokingly at me.

"Oh, sorry honey. Well, if you are and you need condoms, you can use the card I gave you," My mum said.

"Mum, it's fine. I hope you're having fun, but I should go."

"Okay, be safe! Love you," My mum said before hanging up.

I put down the phone and turned to face Joe.

"Sorry about that," I giggled.

"Your mum is hilarious," Joe laughed.

"And a little intrusive sometimes," I laughed.

I rummaged through my closet, deciding what to wear. I decided on a oversize graphic tee and skinny jeans.

"Do you mind if I change in here?" I asked.

"No, I can leave?"

"It's fine," I shrugged, pulling off my shirt and sliding on the oversized shirt over.

I saw Joe watching me while I changed. Not in a creepy, perverted way, but in a way of admiration and almost, maybe, lust.

"How many girlfriends have you ever had?" I asked Joe.

"Well, if you include Sophia," Joe hummed while counting on his fingers using both hands.

"Oh my gosh!" I laughed.

"No, I'm playing, but I've dated three girls," Joe said, "You?"

"I've dated two guys," I nodded.

"Two too many!" Joe jokingly protested.

"Hey, I could say the same for you!" I defended.

"True," Joe shrugged.

Joe said he needed to go back to his flat to film a YouTube video. After he left, I decided to go shopping. I needed some new clothes and make-up. I got in my car and drove to the nearest shopping centre. Stopping in many stores, I ended up buying quite a few new shirts, shorts, and pants. I also stopped in a lingerie store and picked up a couple of soft-cup bras, or bralettes, for lounging around the house and some new lacey underwear to make me happy.

Whenever my mum comes underwear shopping with me, she assumes I am buying it for someone special in mind, but most of the time it is just to make myself happy and makes me feel happy. And that's what I kept telling myself, however this time a little voice in the back of my head kept telling me I was really buying this for Joe.

However, the thought of sleeping with Joe, although arousing, is a bit frightening as well because it shows more commitment. And well, I guess I like Joe enough to do that? I don't know. My mum did say that Joe and I moving too fast or too slow is not to be held to others' standards but our owns' and how we feel in the moment.

I continued shopping, probably spending way too much money than I should have. I haven't bought myself new clothes in a long while and so today I decided to splurge a bit... Okay, a lot.

After shopping into the late afternoon, I returned to the house and decided to just leave everything on my bed. My feet are too tired to put everything away. Instead, I went and laid on the sofa and put on a movie.

"Can I come back over?" Joe texted me.

"Of course :)," I replied.

"On my way then!"

I curiously decided to look at Joe's YouTube page, after noticing I've never seen any of his videos, other than when we first hung-out. I watched his Most Viewed video and thought it was very funny and cute.

I heard the doorbell, shut off the video, and got up to let Joe in. He had an overnight bag in one hand and a brown bag in the other.

"Hello Minxie! I got food for us!" Joe smiled holding up the brown bag from Nando's.

"Yummy!" I smiled, greeting Joe with a small kiss.

We went into the kitchen and I got us plates and we ate our Nando's.

"I'm tired," I yawned.

I glanced at the time on my phone and noticed it was almost 9 o'clock.

"I need to edit my video on my laptop, so we can go to your room?" Joe suggested.

"Okay," I nodded.

I followed Joe upstairs. He had his overnight bag, which I assume has his laptop in it.

"I need to just change into my pajamas," I yawned.

I grabbed them from my drawers and quickly changed.

"These are fancy," Joe smirked holding up the new underwears I had bought out today.

"Oh my gosh! Joe!" I said loudly, laughing in embarrassment.

"I like them," Joe smirked, "But they would look sexier if they were on you."
