Limitless (Rin Matsuoka x OC)

47. Did someone say water?!

In the morning, Nayna slowly started to stir awake but refused to acknowledge the start of a new day, instead she curled up deeper into her sheets, searching for the inviting heat of Rin's body but her hand already reached the edge of the bed.

With a frown from both the confusion and the light infiltrating her eyes, she looked around for the redhead.

"Rin?" She mumbled sleepily but there was no sign of him.

Slowly, a delicious smell found her. Hearing noises downstairs in the kitchen area, she made her way there.

Nayna froze at the bottom of the stairs at the sight in her kitchen. Her boyfriend, only in slacks, looking at whatever he was cooking, his red hair gathered in a small ponytail at the back of his neck. Her eyes traveled over his shoulders, down to his contracting biceps as he used the spatula to pass the food onto the plate. When he turned, her eyes were still concentrated on his glistening pecs and-

"Good morning, baby. Are you salivating over the food or over me?" She heard his amused tone, making her snap from her staring, her irises jumping to his face, their gazes meeting.

She blushed at being caught but shook it away as she made her way to him with a yawn.

"Shut up. I'm not salivating over anything." She muttered as she reached him.

"Of course not." He said in a mocked seriousness as his thumb softly whipped the corner of her mouth, prolonging his joke.

"You're in an awfully good mood so early in the morning." She said looking up at him.

"Why shouldn't I be? I get to have you for a whole day only to myself." He grinned.

"Touché" She said amused pecking his lips.

"Come on, breakfast is ready." He said motioning towards the table set for two.

"Rin, you didn't have to..." She said taking her seat.

"It's only fair. You made dinner so I should make breakfast." He said, mirroring her action.

Nayna looked at him a bit surprised before she smiled softly.

"Thank you."

"Let's dig in."

After breakfast, they laid on the couch lazily, Rin resting his head on her lap as they were both reading.

Suddenly, Rin's phone buzzed in his pocket. He slowly pulled it out and looked at the screen, reading the message.

"Oi, babe, what do you say?" Asked Rin showing her his phone and the message from Nagisa.

"Sounds good. Wanna go?" She asked, softly smiling down at him.

"Yeah. Why not. But not yet. I want to stay here a little bit longer." He grinned stroking her knee.

"It's in the evening so we still have time." She said, softly passing her fingers through his hair.

Rin almost purred at the feeling, closing his eyes in relaxation only to frown when she stopped as she was reading a more interesting section. Annoyed, he took her hand, placing it back on his head.

"You're behaving like Link right now." She chuckled, restarting to comb his hair.

"Shut up. It feels good." He muttered.

"I was thinking, since it's a festival and such, we could wear a kimono. Do you have one?" She asked after a little while without taking her eyes from her book.

As she got no answer, she looked down at her boyfriend only to see him soundly asleep with his book on his chest, a hand dangling on the side of the couch, the other resting across his stomach.
