[it was a pleasant surprise how well things were going between her and Adam. her love life was abysmal. she never chose the right men and always ended up hurt. yet she had seemed to make the right choice that night by talking to Adam, even if it was because he'd been the most sober option.
he wasn't perfect. it didn't take a genius to see he was not happy with his life yet he didn't do much about it. he didn't like his job or how things were for him. neither did she so she couldn't judge him for it. but sometimes it seemed like he looked for reasons to be pissed at something, though never at her. Maria seemed to be the exception to a lot of things. he didn't seem to try for himself but he did for her. he listened to her, actually listened to her. Adam was always trying for her sake and it was all she could ask for.
Maria liked what they had become. they were seeing each other weekly at least, sometimes multiple times. he'd ask her to feed his cat when he was busy during the day with a gig and she'd stay long enough to see him when he got home, kiss him, and chat before having to go to her own job. all they had done was kiss and she didn't mind. Adam had to have known they could have sex if he really wanted to or asked, it wasn't like she was denying him, but it naturally hadn't progressed to that. for once, she didn't feel like she was in a rush. it would happen when it did.
she was currently at his apartment, on the couch, and simply relaxing with the cat on her lap as she pet him. Adam had asked if she could swing by to feed Mr. Whiskers since he was going to be out until late and she'd accepted. didn't have work tonight and so she'd considered seeing if he wanted to chill and maybe rent something to watch tonight.
that had been the plan until she heard him open the door and slam it, Mr. Whiskers bolting off in fear from the sound and her jumping from the sudden noise. she sighed.]

You scared the cat, honey.
