Awful Things.

Chapter 6: CRY BABY

Leah's POV

"That makes sense," I told Atlas as he started putting some spaghetti in a boiling pot on the stove.

"Do you want me to help you?" I asked he turned around and looked me in the eyes.

"If you want to like I mean go ahead" He giggled. I nodded.

"Where is your bread at?" He pointed at the pantry. I walked towards the pantry. I had to walk past him, and as I did I accidentally tripped on my foot. As I fell Atlas caught me.

"Clumsy huh" He looked at me in my eyes and giggled.

"Y-Yeah I fall a lot, I mean I am extremely clumsy," I said as he put me back on my feet. He laughed at me. I scuffed and giggled a little. I then got over to the pantry and he had some texas bread I grabbed that, some garlic, and made my way to the fridge and grabbed his butter. I put some garlic in a bole and put some butter in it. By then he finally put the burger on, he then waited for it to cool.

He knows how to cook and honestly... That is so hot.

I then put some of the garlic butter on the bread and put the garlic bread inside the oven. I then cleaned out the bole and cleaned the spoon I used. I then sat down and watched Atlas. He continued cooking and watching over everything.

"So my family is going to be gone for 2 weeks," I told him while looking at him.

"Oh... Is that so" He said as he wiped his eye. I nodded as I started looking around.

"Ummm... Would you like to stay the night tomorrow or whenever?" He stared at me directly in my eyes. He didn't know but he looks seductive.

"Whatever you want to do" I started smiling, and looked away from him. He then walked over to me and put his pointer finger on my jaw.

"Look at me in the eyes." He said while looking directly into mine. I was getting nervous so I looked away. While blushing extremely hard.

"Did I make you nervous?" He walked away as he was speaking to me. He then grabbed the pot of spaghetti and grabbed a strainer for it.

"No, you didn't make me nervous." I kept on blushing as the room filled with the great smell of garlic bread. I got up and made my way to the oven. I then put on an oven mitten and grabbed the pan full of garlic bread out of the oven and set it on the counter. By then Atlas finished making the spaghetti and meatballs. We both fixed up their plates of food. We also grabbed some Kool-Aid. I managed to buy a bottle of wine on the door dash with my fake ID.

"I have a bottle of wine," I told him as I opened it with a corkscrew. He looked at me and raised an eyebrow.

"Wine you say" He smiled.

"Let's drink then," He said as he walked over to the steps.

"I will be back" As he walked upstairs I couldnt help but notice how long his legs were, In the jeans, he was wearing made him look taller. As he walked up the stairs I started looking around. 3 minutes after Atlas, Noah and Sadie came downstairs. As Sadie and Noah sat down Atlas grabbed 2 wine glasses. And sat down across from me and poured himself and me a glass of wine. As we all ate I paid attention to how Atlas ate. He ate with his mouth closed.

I'm honestly surprised he and his siblings have manors. There isn't anything that will probably bring me more joy than this.

As I was staring at him he looked up at me. I quickly got back to eating.

"I'm done daddy I love you good night," Sadie told Atlas as she picked up her plate and took it to the sink.

"I love you too Sadie" she then kissed him on the cheek and walked upstairs. As she went downstairs Noah finished his food and took it over to the sink as well.

"I love you dad goodnight." Noah started walking upstairs.

"I love you too Noah." Atlas then looked at me. As I finished my food. I also put my plate in the sink and started washing the dishes.

"Ummm. You don't have to do them" Atlas said as he walked over to me.

"I want to. I wanted to so I'm going to do it." I told him. He put his dish in the sink, He then walked over to the table and grabbed his glass and mine. He sat on the counter and sat my glass next to him. I looked at him and smiled.

"Do you like the wine?" I asked him.

He looked so sexy staring at me like this. His head tilted down to get a better look at me made my heart stop.

After I finished the dishes I put them up. I stood in front of him while sipping my glass of wine.

Why does he keep staring at me? He's honestly making me nervous.

As I was thinking he said something that I couldnt catch.

"What did you say?" I asked.

"Come closer." He said while leaning back a little. I slowly moved closer to him, As I did he leaned forward, put his thumb under my chin, and put the side of his index finger on my chin. My breath felt cold. The energy around me turned cold. His aura at that moment looked red and purple. He then pulled my face gently closer to his as if he was going to kiss me. It all felt cold. Until he let go and sat up. I acted as if nothing was wrong but deep down inside I was lowkey angry at him for doing that. I then finished my glass of wine that was half full and walked over to get more wine.

He's toying with me. He wants me to fall for him... Too bad for him it is working.

He then looked at me and just smiled. I couldnt help but feel the need to drink more of the wine. He then hopped off the counter and walked toward me and sat down at the table. I sat down too. And until midnight we talked so much. Our families, how we grew up, everything.

"Do you want to go upstairs?" he asked me with a somewhat tipsy slur.

"Yea," I said as he got up and grabbed my hand, and lead me upstairs to his room.

"I-I need to go check on the kids ill be back" He stumbled into the hallway and went to one of their rooms. about a solid 2 minutes after he went over to the other room. Then another 2 minutes he walked out of that room closing the door behind him. He then walked into his room (The room I was in) And closed the door, then turned on the light, the room glowed with neon colors popping off the wall. His room was an art piece.

I sat on his bed. It was comfy. 

"Would you like something to wear?" He asked while stumbling through this closet. 

Me wearing his clothes. Oh my god, this is going to be good!!

"Yea sure" He was in his closet still. He then handed me a white shirt and a black pair of shorts. I looked at the shorts and they looked as if they would be too big for me to wear. I took my shirt off and laid it on the bed. 

"Thank you Atlas," I said while blushing. He made me happy. 

"You're welcome," He said as we were back to back. I finally got into his shirt completely and I turned around to see him quickly get back into his closet.

Was he watching me change? Did he see my back tattoo?! 

I giggled at the thought if he did see it I don't mind. I love my back tattoos, or did he see that I wasn't wearing a bra. He then grabbed something from the closet.

"I'll be right back," He told me as he walked out of the door closing it behind himself. 

Is he scared? Did I ruin something? Did I scare him? What the hell was that?
