Un Verano Sin Ti (Book 2: A Summer Without You) [Bad Bunny Story]

14: Friend Zone

I woke up at around seven in the morning and noticed that it was pouring outside. I glance at the person snoring next to me and reach out to touch his neck. His temperature seems to have gone back to normal.

I reached out for my phone, just like I always do after waking up every morning, and resumed watching what I was watching last night. I turned the volume down because he's still asleep. 

I was on my phone for like an hour before I felt a shift coming from him, so I turned to face him, and sure enough, he was already awake.

"Buenas dias."

I greeted him with a smile, saying, "Good morning. How are you feeling?"

"Better now that I woke up next to you."

Oh my gosh! Please don't flirt with me this early in the morning. My ears immediately started to heat up. I covered his eyes with my hands. I just can't with his eyes. He stared too much.

Just as I was about to get up, he grabbed my arm and pulled me back, causing me to land on top of him. Oh wow! It's hard.

"Let go." His chest is hard. 

His eyes are closed when I look at him, but he's grinning. s this what it's like to like someone? I feel all tingly in my chest. If only this could continue forever.

"Are you hungry?" he asked. 

"A little." 

I feel hot, especially on my neck, face, and ears. Am I blushing too hard? I really want to look at my face in the mirror. I tried to get away, but he didn't let me, so I stayed on top of him for a long time, long enough to have my fill of his scent and ... others.

Later that day, I decided to learn how to make a cupcake because I was craving it and I got bored. I spent an hour making my first batch, and I was happy that it didn't burn. It looks amazing as well. The taste is all that is left. I called my exclusive cupcake tester.

"Hmmm. It looks edible." He commented after I gave him one.

"Taste it. Hurry and tell me how it is." 

He took a bite, and I watched his entire reaction. He doesn't really have any expressions on his face. 

"Be honest" I reminded him. Why is he quiet? I can't read his face. Is it good or not? 

"How is it?" I eagerly asked him.

" Ummm, no bueno pero no malo."

I frowned. I grabbed one, took a bite and spit it out right away. So that's why he said, not good, but not bad. "It's awful."

He laughed at my reaction, saying,  "Maybe baking is not your thing."

I refuse to believe that. "I'll do it again. I wonder what went wrong."

"La cocina." He replied as he looks around. 

"Oh, relax. I'll clean it later. My aunt and mom won't allow me to use the kitchen, so I can only practice cooking when they aren't around. Since you have such a wonderful kitchen, which I suppose you use rarely, it's better for me to use it."

"I can see why." He said still staring at my mess. 

"I'm only this messy when I'm learning how to bake. You've seen me cook before." 

"Just try not to burn anything."

"Ha-ha. Funny. I'll call you later." I said as I pushed him out of the kitchen.
