Vaggies pov

I lay on the sofa as I was flicking through the TV mindlessly. My wounds were stitched back up thanks to Charlie but I have to take it easy to avoid reopening my wounds.

My flicking was interrupted by a humming coming from the kitchen. Curious I gingerly stood up and walked over.

I peaked in to see Charlie humming a soft tune to myself, her hips swaying in time with her tune. I felt mesmerized by her golden hair as it swayed along with her hips. They looked like golden waves crashing against the coast.

"Hmm?" she turned to me with a smile "hi vaggie"

"Hey" I waved nervously "I heard you humming"

"Oh my gosh did I disturb you?" She eyed me guiltily "I'm so sorry-"

"No it's fine" I smiled reassuringly "I thought it was pretty"

"Oh thank you" she played with her hair with a bashful smile.

"So what are you making?" I asked.

"Oh I'm making shepherds pie. It's my mother's speciality" she said proudly. I nodded as I got closer to inspect her work. She was stirring some mince, turning it from red to brown.

"Can I help?" I asked.

"Oh sure" she looked surprised but happy "could you mash the potatoes for me?"

"Sure" I nodded as I drained the boiling water from the potatoes and mashed them with all my might.

"Wow you're good at this" Charlie leaned over my shoulder, causing our hands to accidentally brush. We both jumped back as if we were shot by a jolt of electricity.

We spent the rest of the time cooking in silence with red faces.
