You Got Me.

You always have your way.

"I thought you knew where you were going?" She asked as we walked aimlessly down the street.

"I do." I said looking arund causing her to laugh.

"Really? I mean, I'd like to eat before midnight."

"Oh be quiet."

She laughed and I held her hand tightly as we walked across the street.

"Let's just eat here."  She said pulling me to the first place we saw.

"Fine." I mumbled letting her take me wherever.

"I think I'm having more fun than you already." She said as we were seated at a table.

"No, yeh juss havin fun laughin at meh."

"Maybe..." she said with a grin.

Once we finished eating Maria wanted to walk around. Which I had expected because she loved London at night.

"One day I'm gonna take yeh ta New York City." I said holding on to her hand like usual.

"Cause if yeh like London at night yeh will die when yeh see it."

"I wouldn't mind going there." She said with a smile.

"I shall take yeh one day."

"Ok." She said laughing as she dropped my hand and walked a bit in front of me.

I couldn't help but to watch her as she spun around to the music that was playing at the small pub a few feet in front of us.

She was happy in this moment.

I knew it because of her smile and the way her dark eyes were a shade lighter than normal. Didn't take long for her to be. Although, I should have known that. She was one of the most optimistic people in the world. She always found the bright side of everything and even though this whole Ben situation was horrible I knew she had done just that.

I walked quicker to catch up with her and grabbed her hand and we began to dance like idiots in the middle of the road. The girl made me feel so carefree sometimes. Like right now, I wouldn't dare do this, but with her, it didn't seem so silly. She began laughing as I spun her around.

"We should probably head back." She stated and I nodded with a grin as she linked her hand with mine and we headed back to the hotel.

"Thanks." She said softly as she leaned against my shoulder while we waited in the elevator.

"For what?"

"For doing this for me."

"Why wouldn't I, Maria? I love yeh." I said holding her to my side as we walked to our room.

She grinned and kissed my cheek as I tried to unlock the door.

"Either way. Thank you. I'm already having fun."

"No problem..." I fumbled feeling my cheeks warm up from her kiss I hadn't expect. She doesn't kiss me. She hugs me but I'm usually the one who kisses her and maybe it was stupid but it took me a bit by surprise but I oddly liked how gentle her lips felt on me.

After that momnt I found myself hating how comfortable she was with me. Like how she didn't seem to think twice about stripping her clothes off to change. Usually it didn't make me uncomfortable but it did this time. I grew nervous as I sat on the couch and tried to stare at my fingers instead of her. What was wrong with me?

"What are you doing?" She asked causing my head to shoot up, "Oh. Nuffin." I responded quickly as she sat on the bed with her ipod in her hand.

"Well oook." She said and I smiled before getting up and going over to her.

"What are yeh listenin to?" I asked pulling one of her head phones out and placing it in my ear as we both laid back onto the bed.

"It's on shuffle so we will see."

I chuckled and waited for a song to play and groaned once fall out boy hit my ear.

"I found the cure to growing older, and you're the only place that feels like home..." she sang along and I looked over at her, "can we change this?"

She sighed, "fine I have to listen to linkin park but you can't listen to one fall out boy song but fine."

I rolled my eyes and the song changed.

I smiled once one of my songs began playing.

"Awe. Yeh do love me." I said looking over at her and she shrugged, "good at pretending anyways."

I rolled my eyes and wrapped my arm around her causing my nose to hit her cheek, "I know I said my heart beats for you I was lyin girl it beats for two." I whispered.

I didn't really care to hear my own music but if she wanted to I wasn't going to object. I loved that she loved the band and supported my music.

I kissed her cheek softly and closed my eyes as the song changed to some mellow music I hadn't heard before.

"Are you not going to change?" She asked.

"Mhm. No." I mumbled finding myself comfortable with her like this.

Sh giggled softly and I kicked off my shoes before reaching for the blanket to cover her because I wasn't cold at all. I pulled the blanket up and reached over to turn the lamp off.

"Goodnight Maria." I whispered placing my arm back around her and she cuddled up against me which I wouldn't ever object to.

I fell asleep instantly and when I woke up the next morning it was because Maria wasn't in the bed anymore which caused me to sit up quickly.

"Maria?" I called out sleepily and when she didn't respond I groaned and dragged myself out of the bed to find her. She makes me a bit paranoid. The worst scenarios always pop into my head. Like what if Ben broke in and kidnapped her?

I know. I'm insane.

I finally found her on the balcony pacing back and forth with her phone to her ear.

"I'm being ridiculous?!" She yelled and it made me wince. She doesn't yell and I can see why it nerved me because it didn't fit her at all.

"Just stop calling me and leave me alone!" She said and I grabbed her arm knowing it was the one person she shouldn't even be talking to.

Her eyes locked wih mine and I grabbed the phone from her, "do yeh like bein alive?" I asked harshly and the stupid boy spoke, "Oh I see she's with you of course."

"Of course she is. And she will be and if yeh eva try ta see her, talk to her anyfing i'll come afta yeh wifout hesitation."

"You've always been full of talk Sykes."

"Oh reallah? Well, test meh." I snapped before hanging up on him.

I looked over at Maria heatedly and she crossed her arms.

"Why did yeh answa tha phone?"

"I didnt see who was calling."

"Yeah? Well its stayin wif meh." I said shoving her phone in my pocket and walking back in.

"Oliver." She said following me in.

"What?"

She wrapped her arms around me and pressed herself against me causing my anger to melt away too quickly.

"I'm not going to go back to him, Oliver." She said into my shirt and I relaxed.

"I'm not." She repeated and I placed my arms around her waist.

"I know..."

"Then stop getting mad at me." She whispered.

I sighed, "I'm neva mad at yeh Maria."

She looked up at me and I brushed her hair with my fingers and leaned down to press my lips to her forehead.

"I'm not mad." I repeated.

She nodded and I kissed her forehead once more, "Let me go shower and we will go out ok?"

"Ok."

I swear it isn't good for me to be so wrapped up in her.

But, how can you say no to such a sweet girl? It's impossible, I tell you. Or maybe just for me because her eyes seemed to release a part of me that was only reserved for her. She made me become all mushy and lovey and I hated it when it was around other people but I couldn't help it.

"Ready?" She asked as I finished doing my hair.

"Oh. Yeah. Hey afta we get somefin ta eat my mate is playin a small show at some pub. Wanna go watch?"

She nodded excitedly and I chuckled as I turned off the flat iron.

"Yeh ready?"

"I've been ready."

"That's a shocker."

She glared at me and I grabbed her hand, "come on, love."

"Oh and by the way, I found that place I was wantin ta take yeh lass night."

"Mhm I'll believe it when I see it." She said with a grin.

"I looked it up!"

She giggled and I smiled as we walked out into the dreary weather of London.

"So who's you're mate that we are seeing tonight?"

"Oh. They are a bunch of yanks."

"Well, what band?"

"Not fall out boy..." I teased.

"Oliver!"

I laughed, "It's a surprise. Yeh like them I'll tell yeh that much."

"Oliver!" She said seriously and I chuckled, "Not tellin yeh."

"Please" she asked pouting as she tugged on my hand.

"No. Don't fuckin try that on meh! Can yeh not let meh do this one fing?" I groaned avoiding her gaze.

"But just tell me! I'll still be excited! Trust me."

"No."

She frowned and dropped my hand.

"Maria..."

"Maria." I repeated chuckling because she was trying to ignore me.

"Fine ignore me but turn right sweetie cause the place is right past that building." I said following behind her. She of course listened to me and turned when needed which caused me to laugh. I quickly picked up the pace and wrapped my arms around her as I got close enough.

"Maria. Stop." I mumbled holding her to me. I kissed her cheek and she crossed her arms trying to keep her ground.

"If I tell yeh, what yeh gonna do for meh?"

She shrugged, "i'll buy your lunch."

I laughed, "we will discuss it. Come on." I said pulling her into the restaurant.

"Is that a yes or a no?" She asked as we were seated.

"No. I'm not lettin yeh pay."

She frowned and crossed her arms causing me to laugh.

"Why are you such a douche?"

I laughed, "Oh my gosh. I try to do something nice and this is what I get?"

She nodded and I stuck my tongue out at her not giving in to her.

For once.

"...Oh and is there a show around here tonight?" She asked the waitress right after she ordered.

"Yeah. Pierce the veil around the corner should be fun." She said and I groaned, placing my hand on my face.

Maria smiled at me victoriously and the girl looked at me confused and I quickly gave her my order.

See what I mean? She always gets her way...
