Hug of a Werewolf; A Werewolf Romance

Chapter 6

May 20th, 2020; 9:00 a.m.

The two fell asleep on the couch cuddling with the Xbox on and the Living Room littered with trash and LaCroix cans.

----The next morning----

"What the heck happened in here?!", says Gemma sitting up rubbing her eyes.

"We happened!", Jax said laughing, picking up the plates and silverware from the coffee table.  

"We stayed up so late! I checked my apple watch before we crashed and the clock read 2:45 a.m.!", Gemma says with a touch of tiredness still in her voice as she started to help Jax with the disastrous living room.

"We are terrible! Imagine our parents walking in here! We both would be dead meat!", says Gemma laughing quietly.

"What?", says Jax looking at Gemma confused.

I said, "We are terrible! Imagine our parents walking in here! We both would be dead meat!" repeats Gemma still laughing but louder this time. 

"You're wild! We are almost done!", says Jax as he finishes cleaning up & scrubbing dishes and placing them in the sink.

---- 2 ½ hours later ----

The smell of the kitchen was delightful, It smelled of Fresh Pumpkin, Cinnamon, and warm spices. Gemma was busy as a bee baking and treating the two of them to fresh fall desserts while Jax was outside chopping wood and gathering materials to restock Beckett's Coal and Fire.

"What's for Lunch? It smells delicious.", asked Jax as he came through the treehouse's front door wiping sweat from his forehead with his sleeve and pulling off his dirty, brown Timberland boots. "There's a ton of things to pick from. I made a ton of sweet treats. Which do you want? 

A piece of pumpkin croissants or pumpkin cookies there's even a pumpkin pie or two in the fridge.", says Gemma excitedly as she pulls a Pumpkin pie out of the fridge to decorate. I hope we can take some of this over to our parents so they can enjoy it too because we both know that we aren't going to eat it all.", says Jax sneakingly sticking his finger in the whipped topping for the pies and placing the blob of whipped cream on Gemma's nose and face.

"Hey, come on Babe! Why'd you do that??", says Gemma, teasing with a whine. 

"Cause we both know that we can't both be in the kitchen at the same time baking without there being some sort of powder or something on the other person's face," replied Jax, smiling as he was grabbing a dozen eggs out of the fridge to add to the large batch of cookie dough that they were making.

"What type of cookies are we making again?", asked Jax, placing the eggs on the counter and grabbing a large, white, stainless steel mixing bowl.

"We are making Pumpkin, Cinnamon, Maple cookies silly, and you're not going to get any if you keep forgetting what kind we are making!", said Gemma, teasing her boyfriend... Once Gemma was done making the cookies she asked Jax, "what cookies did I make", to see if he was paying attention.  

"Chocolate chip cookies.", said Jax with a curious expression forming as he turned over on the couch from hugging the pumpkin. When Jax looked at Gemma she had a half-grin and half frown on her face. She quickly turned around so Jax couldn't see her small giggle trying to come out. Jax stands up coming over to see why she turned around. Gemma's lip started to quiver when he looked down at her.

" What is so funny?" said Jax with a grin on his face

" It's just that you have a paw mark on the side of your face"

"Ok but why did you turn around"

" Well for starters ... you said, the wrong one, it's chocolate chip, and then, when I saw your face I couldn't help but laugh.... I tried to keep it in but that didn't work out so well."

After that craziness, they sat down on the couch to watch a movie, eat cookies & cuddle.
