Temporary Bliss

Chapter 4 *edited*

The next morning I woke up besides Ghost, who was snoring quietly, still in a deep sleep. I flipped around to the dresser besides the bed and checked the time on the clock.

10:43 am. Not a bad time for someone who stayed up talking. I sat up in the creaky bed with a groan and stretched my arms. I turned over and looked at him from behind me. He looked so peaceful. I looked down at his arms that were above his head. He was toned but also covered in scars. I wonder how long he's been doing this for and how often he gets hurt from it. His chest looked the same. Toned and yet, covered in scars. Almost made me sad to see it. I wanted to run my fingers along the old cuts but I didn't want him to wake up and think I'm weird. I turned away from the sleeping man besides me and prepared myself to get up and get some food.

I walked into the main part of the building. The place was weird. It has the design of an office place, but turned into a apartment in a way.

"Good morning Ms. (y/n)!" Toast greeted me from the kitchen table. "Care for some coffee? I made a whole pot." He offered. I walked over to the kitchen with a yawn.

"Sure, I would love some." I told him. He stood up and grabbed a mug from the white cabinet and began to pour the hot liquid into the cup. I sat down at the table.

"I see you you're wearing Ghost's clothes." He chuckled. I choked on my spit, completely unaware that what I'm wearing was his.

"Am I?" I said, my face turning red. "I found these on the floor of the closet in the room." I informed him. He nodded, pulling out sugar and milk, placing them onto the table in front of me along with the mug. "Thank you." I mumbled, grabbing the spoon and scooping up sugar.

"Good morning!" Ghost greeted us, seeming to be in a good mood compared to yesterday.

"Good morning, sir. Seems like you're in a great mood. Slept well I'm guessing?" Toast hinted, staring up at Ghost as he took a sip of his coffee. Ghost glared at him over his shoulder before he grabbed a mug from the cabinet. I almost choked on my coffee. Toast smirked to himself as he placed his cup down on the wooden table, satisfied. Ghost sat down with us, putting sugar and milk in his mug.

"So, any appointments today?" Ghost asked, taking a sip of his coffee. I glanced at him, noticing how messy his hair was and how it was kind of hot in a way. I pushed that thought aside but kept looking. He had broad shoulders, probably from being so muscular. He wasn't completely built like a body builder but also didn't have much meat to him. He had a little pudge but you can tell he's strong. As I stared at him, he glanced over at me, noticing how I was checking him out. Guess I wasn't hiding it good enough. He looked down at his coffee and smiled a bit, his cheeks turning red. Toast looked between us and chuckled. He pulled out his phone and read aloud.

"We have one appointment at 12:30. We should get ready soon." He told us. I took another sip of my coffee and nodded.

"Well, I should probably head home and shower." I told them, standing up from my seat and pushing my chair in.

"Alright, see ya later then." Ghost said, standing up and going to the fridge.

"Good bye!" Toast exclaimed with a wave. He's so polite. "I will send you the details about when we should meet up!" He explained as I walked back to my room to grab my clothes.

"Sounds good!" I yelled back as I entered the room. I grabbed my clothes and went home.
