-Tuesday, June 16th

I wake up as I feel a pair of arms tighten around me. My heart stops for a second before I look up to see Selvi.

I take a long deep breath as I take in his features. His pink puffy lips still swollen from last night, and long brown lashes are to die for. Just looking at him makes me feel fuzzy inside.

I reach for my phone so I take a picture of the sleeping beauty beneath me, but before I can his eyes slowly open.

"Good morning princess"  i feel the corner of my lips turn up as I turn  towards the gruffly tone. We continue to stare at each other for a solid minute before I greet him with a laugh.

"What is there something on my face?" He softly chuckles back as he pushes his brown locks away from his eyes. I get closer to his face as I rest my cheek on his chest. I see his porcelain skin gather a hint of red on his ears.

"You're so cute, you know that?" I make sure to stare into his greenish hues as I make my comment. I drag my pointer finger from his chest down to his abs as he lets out a lengthy sigh.

"Means a lot coming from you beautiful!" my eyes widen as he raises up into a sitting position. I let out a yawn as his fingers run through my braids. Them same fingers that was on my neck.

I smile to myself while thinking about what happened last night. My face scrunches up as I feel the grip on my braids slightly tighten.

"What you smiling about?" I look up at man to see his warm look change into a blank stare. The aw I felt is now replaced with uneasiness. I reach my hand to remove his grip but it only gets tighter.

"Better be thinking about me in that little head of yours." He shakes my head gently as before he lets go. I immediately raise from my man's lap as I stare at him in shock.

He now has a boyish smile on his face chuckling like something's funny. Is he crazy? Maybe he did it to be playful. Yeah that it.

I chuckle at selvi before moving off the bed. Ready to go to the kitchen i suddenly feel a cold hand wrap around my wrist.

"Were you thinking about me?" I look at the man like he just spoke an algebraic equation. His facial expression sums up the seriousness of this situation.

"I was thinking about the mess we need to clean in the living room. Whats up with you today?" It looks like a switch just flipped in his head as his smile re-appears.

"I'm just making sure you don't hate me yet." He laughs out and I smile. He's so pretty when he happy it's hard to be mad.

"I could never hate you, Vel" he finally stands up as we walk to the kitchen with just underwear on.

"New nickname?" He wraps his arms around my waste, I hum in return as I open up the empty fridge. I lean my head back against his shoulder and accept his embrace.

I feel protected in his arms, like no one else is allowed to touch me but him. Which is strange now that I think about it.

I pull away as I turn to face him, "I need to go grocery shopping, so you should make your way home now."

I watch his brows furrow together as I watch the muscles in his neck twitch. I let out a nervous gulp as he backs me into the now closed fridge.

"Why can't I come with you?"

'Because I want some alone time? Because I said so? Because I'm very uncomfortable at the moment!!'

"Because you have work soon, no?" I look up at the clock and it's 2:30pm. I hear the man sigh before steps back from me to grip the counter behind him.

"I'm going to let you get rid of me this time, but next time I'm not leaving until I want to." I watch him walk to my room with confusion written on my face.

After 5 minutes he walks back out with the outfit he wore yesterday. He walks up to the door without saying attempting to say a goodbye but I stop him.

"What do you mean by,'Until I want to?" I air quote with my finger as I mock his words in a deep tone. He looks at me fondly before waving his fingers at me to come here.

And I walk up to him as he pulls me into a hug and gives me a kiss on the forehead. "You'll find out soon" he mutters against my forehead. He swiftly turns around to make his exit, the door finally closes and I'm met with a meow.

I look down at Tracy then look back up at the door in awe.

"What the fuck I get myself into.."
