"Ah, summer, what power you have to make us suffer and like it." - Russel Baker

Rob's POV

My ears picked up the sound of my door opening and footsteps. The footsteps carried over to my head and I felt something being placed on me. Holy fuck am I about to be murdered?

"Ugh, I have to get a picture of him sleeping again. It's like he wants me to become a photographer when he sleeps."

Oh it's just Preston. The object placed on me was being put around my head. Or at least trying to. Weight was put in the bed as the object around my head fell countless of times. I heard Preston mumble vogar profanities.

"Fudge, I have to hurry up before he wakes up."

I softly opened my eyes and was greeted with Preston in front of my face. In his hands was a flower crown made up of itty bitty flowers. Preston hasn't noticed my awakend presence and was focussed on his task at hand. Quite literally.

"Want some help?"

A pair of dark brown eyes met mine. Well Prestons eyes aren't really dark brown, dark brown doesn't come close to describing them. Their more of a muddy caramel. Does that make sense?

A soft pink blush came on Prestons face when he realized how close we were. He smoothly jotted back some and hid the flowee crown behind his back.

"Help with what?"

I sat up and moved the covers off of me. Mhm, I thought he was going to play it off.

"With the flower crown."

"What flower clown?"

"Preston."

Preston shot me an innocently playful glare, making my lips curl up into a small smile.

"Hmm?"

"Give."

"Fine."

Preston handed me the flower crown, which made me look at it more in detail. There were medium sized leaves next to each and every flower, making it look a tad bit grungy. Twigs were tangled up in the flower stems, so that it would stay together. Wow this is really pretty.

"Did you make this Preston?"

"Yeah, I found some flowers in the yard on the way to the grocery store. But I didn't go to the store because I got distracted with Flowers, and decided to make a crown with it."

Prestons eyes flickered between me amd his fiddling hands. I put the crown on my head and adjusted it so that it fit. This guy sure is creative isn't he? The flower crown was a snug fit around my mess bed hair. I looked up at Preston and saw him taking a video of my actions.

"You look like a king."

A chuckle came out of my mouth as I pulled out my phone and opened the camera application.

"A king of what?"

"I don't know. Maybe the king of flowers?"

"The Flower King?"

"Exactly. Now since you've interrupted my sneaky photo shoot you have to take pictures with me."

"Sneaky photo shoot?"

"Don't ask."

"I feel like I should."

Preston moved closer to me, and kinda sat on my lap. He brought his phone up in the air and angled it for a picture.

"You know you love it."

I looked up at the camera and stuck my tongue out. Preston did the same and took a photo of us. He grabbed my phone and took another photo but this time we were both laughing.

Preston stayed on my lap while he set the photo of us together as my background picture on my phone. He also must have put his number in there because soft sounds were coming from my phone. He got his phone and did the same thing but faster.

"Wait, you didn't go to the grocery store?"

"Wow Rob."

"Shut up, is there even any food?"

"Nope, after I cooked that breakfast for us yesterday, the fridge become empty."

Preston got of my lap, leaving a chilly feeling where he once sat. Why do I feel cool all of a sudden? Am I going threw menopause or something of the sort?!

"Do you want some help at the grocery store? You'll probably ended up only buying Japanese snacks without me helping you."

I stood up and grabbed my wallet on the nightstand. Preston still had my phone so I didn't have to worry about it.

"What's wrong with Japanese snacks?!"

"They can be bad for you if you eat too many."

"Fuck that, I'm an adult I can do as I please."

"Mhm, do you want my help or what because I can go back to bed."

"Fine but go wash your face and brush your teeth, your breath smells like shit. But stay in your pajamas, today at the store if you wear them you get a discount."

Preston went out of the room and skipped down the stairs.

"And hurry up!"

I walked into the bathroom and quickly brushed my teeth. After That I washed my face and walked down stairs to see Preston fumbling with a car key.

"About time."

"Jeez, you really like food don't you?"

"It's a blessing and a curse."

We walked out of the house amd Preston locked it behind us. We got in the car and started making our way to the store.

I can't blame the guy, food is good.
