Darn It

Chapter thirty-seven: "Darn It"

He combed his hair with his fingers that making it even messier than it actually was, I didn't want to give him the pleasure that he was right so I turned my back on him "I'm going to bed"

I heard him clicking his tongue that I guess at me, I glanced at him who was crossing his arms and shaking his head slowly as his eyes were glued to me. He jumped at the couch and took long strides quickly coming at me, he bended down and carried me on his shoulder like a sack of potatoes

"Where are you taking me?" I asked him, it was expected for him to do this kind of stuff since carrying me has now become a habit. He opened a door to a room that I haven't gone into yet in the penthouse, there was a grand piano in the middle

He slowly put me down on the bench in front of the piano "since when did you have a piano here? Do you even play the piano?"

He cracked his knuckles and sat down beside me "what song can you play?" He asked me and ignored my questions

I cracked my knuckles and gave him a proud look "mostly classical"

"Good then I'll go first then you do the rest with me" he said confidently and his hands started playing Fur Elise
Ha! I know this song like the back of my hand

So I expertly started playing alongside him, we were so focused on playing the piano that I didn't notice that it was already 1 AM. Cloud wanted to play another song but I tugged his arm

"Cloud we should sleep" I suggested and there was a yawn that escaped from my mouth, I rubbed my eyes

"By the way how did I get here because I remembered falling asleep at the twin's penthouse?" I looked around the room that Cloud carried me in and it was filled with books like the other library room

"I carried you back here" he nonchalantly answered as if carrying me back to the parking lot, driving back to his home and carrying me from the lobby to the elevator and then reaching the bed to put me down was so easy

My eyes were set on one door that was painted Hazel like my eyes, I walked to the door slowly and was about to touch the doorknob since Cloud was doing something else in the room

Once my hand reached the doorknob and I was about to twist it his hand grabbed my arm and pulled me away from the door, "Angel what are you doing!?" He asked frantically as his breathing changed like he got nervous but that is just my guess

"I was wondering what is inside this room" I pointed to the door and he rubbed one of his temple, "I am letting you roam around this house but this room got it?" He snapped at me and I nodded
What is inside that made him so protective of it?

He grabbed my hand and we went to bed, I pulled my hand away from him since I was not comfortable that a guy was holding me. I was never the type to get physical with any guy, when Will tried to hug me I avoided it

I will usually be the one who will do physical contact with a guy since it depends on my mood and if I wanted to be touched by another gender, so when Cloud does the thing where he gets physical in carrying me, grabbing my arm or hand I just wanted to pull away quickly

I tucked myself in the bed and Cloud followed after me, the hot dog pillow was a way for me to cuddle and put my leg over it since I have a sleeping habit that I have to put my leg on something like a pillow to get comfortable

"Snow was a very cute bunny" I said out loud and Cloud looked at me from his phone and nodded "yeah"

My eyes were droopy and I was stopping myself from falling asleep first and thinking of a way to make Cloud sleep, I did the thing where I put both of my arms at his side and was on top of him with only my torso

"Cloud. Sleep" I ordered him but he was not listening to me

Once he finished looking at his phone and looked up at me who was still in that position his eyes were a bit wide
What's up with him?

It looks like he has seen something at me and was just beginning to see it
"This is a new view" he chimed

I rolled my eyes as I put a strand of hair behind my ear "Don't make this harder than it actually seemed Marshall, I want to sleep too"

"Hold on stay in that position" he said as his eyes were wandering at every spot on my face, his lips were a bit parted as he continues to do whatever the heck he is doing
Now that I think about it, he always looks at me and his face always show like he is trying to figure me out

He was taking too long that I took the initiative and put my hand to cover both of his eyes
I begged God that he could sleep right now, I am now frustrated that I can't sleep unless he does first because if I sleep first my guilt will eat me up that I left him to be awake all alone

"You were taking too long you jerk" I said and a low chuckle arose from his broad chest that rises a bit as he chuckles
"Jerk?" I can feel his eyebrows were raised because I felt it in my hand that was covering the upper part of his face

"So is that my nickname now? Not grumpy?" He asked me as his lips formed into a pout, it looks kissable though
KISSABLE!?

I lightly slapped myself multiple times
Maybe this is caused by a lack of sleep

I nodded to myself
Yeah, this might be from lack of sleep

"Yes, Jerk" I spoke before turning my back on him at the bed and covering myself with the duvet as I snuggle up with the hotdog pillow, it was getting too hot under the duvet and I need oxygen so I let my head out and I can breathe properly again

I suddenly felt a warm breath at the nape of my neck and I shivered a bit from the feeling, my head turned slightly to see Cloud who was now asleep but was extremely close to me. If I move now I will fall off the bed

To be honest, my body is super close to the edge that if I fall asleep now like this, I am sure I will wake up on the cold hard floor by tomorrow. I tried to move to the side where Cloud once was but I was trapped inside the duvet and Cloud's weight was on it making it harder to squeeze out
I have no choice

I glared at Cloud's handsome sleeping face
God I hate you so much

So I moved myself to be near to him so I won't fall off, I forced myself to close my eyes and just pretend to imagine that Cloud is not sleeping super close to me on the same bed and that I am just in my bed back at home all alone like I always have

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I felt refreshed once I opened my eyes, I was expecting Cloud to be gone beside me but he was still asleep and...he has his leg on top of me!!

He must be so tired that he moves from his sleep, his leg that was on me was a bit heavy and the duvet that he was sleeping on that trapped me last night still hasn't moved an inch
Darn it
