My mafia | Daerin

It has been a couple days since we all got back from Italy. I enjoyed the little vacation immensely, but I was also glad to come back to the place I know and love.

Haerin has decided to move all my stuff to her room since it apparently helps her sleep better if I'm in bed next to her, but I knew the real reason—well two reasons: my safety and her feelings.

During the past couple days, I have been begging Haerin to go back to my old job or find a new one, but she's adamant about not letting me out of the house. It was getting frustrating, but I'll keep asking until she gives up.

I was taking chicken pot pies out of the oven when Haerin came home. I put them on a plate and turned around to see her at the island, sitting on a stool.

"We can eat here today. I have something to show you." She said.

I brought the plates over to the island and sat down. She handed me a packet and a pen. What?

"Read it." She told me.

I scanned over it and was shocked to see it was the papers to build a new restaurant.

"Are you building a new restaurant?" I asked.

"No. It's for you. You're an amazing cook and have got great taste. I think you'll make an amazing restaurant manager. I know you've been wanting to do something, so I thought of this. It pretty close to our house, so you can always come back if you don't feel safe."

I was so happy, so I suddenly wrapped my arms around her. Haerin also wrapped her arms around me. And I whispered thank you in her ear before placing a kiss on her cheek. I felt her stiffen and heard her take a breath of air. It felt good to know the effect I have on her.

"Let's watch a movie." Haerin suddenly said.

"Okay. Just let me change into something more comfortable." I said.

"I should do that too."

I chuckled and ran off to our bedroom. I went into the bathroom after grabbing my white silk nightgown, so I could brush my teeth. I have a feeling I'll fall asleep.

Once I exited the bathroom, I saw Haerin wearing a dark grey v-neck and black sweatpants. Her head turned to look at me, and I knew she would have to restrain herself. Hey, I'm just showing her what she could have and enticing her a little.

We made our way down to the living room, and I honestly just agreed with the first movie Haerin chose because I wanted to have some fun teasing her. The movie started as she sat back down; I noticed it was Jurassic Park. She knows me well.

Once Haerin sat down, I swung my bare legs over her, my nightgown rising a little up my thigh as I did so. I saw in my peripheral vision that she stared right at where the hem of my nightgown was on my thigh. I just pretended to watch the movie.

After a little bit, Haerin seemed to be paying attention to the movie. I was wrong though because when I slightly shifted my legs, causing my nightgown to rise a little higher, her gaze instantly fell onto my legs.

I kept my eyes on the screen. Then, I felt a hand on my thigh. I mentally smirked. Haerin started to rub my thigh with her hand like she couldn't resist touching me.

I decided to move closer to her, and she suddenly stopped. Haerin began again when she saw I just went to lean on her side and wrap my arms around her, not walk away.

I was getting really tired however, so I just let Haerin continue to stroke my thigh as I fell asleep on her. I was going to try to tease her a bit more, but I gave up when I felt so comfortable, and it was so late.

Before I completely drifted off, I felt Haerin pick me up, so I snuggled closer. She carried me to, I assume, our bedroom.

Once she laid me down, I felt a kiss on my forehead and mentally smiled.

"What are you doing to me?" I heard Haerin mumble just before I completely faded away.
