I look at him with bewilderment. Emotion floods through me as he looks at me with boredom lacing his eyes. His entire body is calm as he leans against the brick walls and stares down at me.
" Oh yeah? Then why did you ignore me today after that mom...
A piercing alarm belts throughout the home, waking me out of the best sleep I've had in a while. Not caring about putting on a bra or messing with my hair, I jolt out of bed and run downstairs.
The smell of something burning and smoke fills the entire downstairs as I run into the kitchen. Only then, do I see my brother hitting the smoke alarm with a broom stick.
" Stupid piece of shit! Shut up! "
I spot burnt pancakes in a pan, at least that's what it looks like. I cover my mouth to keep the laughter in as I pull my phone out and begin to record Eli. He finally knocks down the smoke alarm before he turns around and spots me. He wears a "kiss the cook" apron and has oven mitts on.
Why? I don't know.
" I made us breakfast! I'm sure once you scrape all of the burnt layers off it'll be nice and yummy. " he says with a smile.
I begin to open a few windows to air out the kitchen before I assess the burnt pancakes.
" How about I take us out for breakfast? " I say laughing.
He looks at the pancakes defeatedly before he nods. We both begin to clean up his mess before I hear Atlas come downstairs.
" What happened? "
" Elias almost burnt the house down trying to cook. "
" Did not! "
" I believe it. He's almost burnt down our apartment more times than I can count. " he says with a smirk.
I smile as Elias glares at us.
Wiping my hands on the kitchen towel, I tell the boys to go upstairs and get ready so we can head out to breakfast. I have a small cafe in mind that has the best omelets , which I know Elias loves.
I head upstairs and I see that Atlas's door is slightly ajar. I think back to yesterday and I decide it's my turn to make him feel a bit flustered.
I hear Elias singing in the shower, giving me the green light.
I hear him rummaging through his suitcase, so I make sure he hears me enter my room and not fully close my door.
Facing my bathroom door, I slowly take off my cotton shorts. Thankfully, I'm wearing a cute pair of white lace underwear. I make sure to bend over a bit , but not to much. I then take off my shirt and toss it beside the shorts before I walk inside of the bathroom.
I make sure my body is behind the door before I begin to close it while I take a peek outside. I see Atlas staring right at me with his cheeks flushed and I can see a tent forming in his sweats.
I quickly lock the door before I let out a long breath.
I can't believe I did that.
But, I liked the way it made me feel. I felt powerful and sexy. Knowing his full attention was on me, knowing he could only look but not touch no matter how badly he wanted to.
I quickly shower before I put on some lotion and do some skincare. I then tackle my waist length hair and I decided to straighten it.
I quickly open the door before heading for my closet, and I see that Atlas's door is now closed. Smiling , I pick out a beautiful dress for the day.
