RAIDEN ROMANO.

It's night , Wren said he'd take a shower before getting in bed , its been an hour so I'm guessing that's where he is , probably waiting for me to join him.

It's not happening.

Instead I'm sitting on the couch , my laptop infront of me on the table I had moved closer , I'm sending some stuff out for Kane.

It takes another 30 minutes before Wren comes down , I ignore him when he sits down on the couch but glance over briefly to see he had taken the whole thick blanket from upstairs with him , I fight off a grin and an eyeroll simultaniously before focusing back on the task at hand , that doesn't take long however as Wren leans into my side casually and gets comfortable , I glance back at him , he's looking at my laptop lazily.

He puts his head on my shoulder with a small huff , I continue doing my fucking job , doing my best to ignore his presence.

He seems to have forgotten our little fight before he went no contact and yes I'm saying he did because I had never started in the first place.

"I'm busy." I tell him when he wraps his arm around mine "Tsk. I can see that." comes his response.

"What are you doing Wren ?" I sigh , looking at him.

"Nothing." he mumbles.

"Go to bed." I say as I attempt to shrug him off.

"Make me." he tilts his head with a playfull grin.

I snort "I'm not playing that game with you Wren get your ass to bed." I tell him seriously.

He shrugs "No."

I clech my jaw and focus back on my work , shaking my head slightly.

Not even 2 minutes later he gets up from the couch , seriously does this kid have ADHD or something ?

I look up and watch him "Where are you going ?" 

He spins around "The kitchen.. ?" he responds suspiciously before he smiles "Unless you wanna stop being boring and come upstairs with me." he sugests.

I narrow my eyes "Go to the damn kitchen already."

Wren laughs obnoxiously as he spins back around and heads to the kitchen.

I stare at the kitchen entrance as I hear him in the kitchen , after a minute I get up and walk over I raise my eyebrow at him.

He's sitting on the kitchen counter , turned to the doorway as if he was expecting me to follow , I glance over at the coffee machine when I hear the soft hum of it.

"Raiden." Wren says , his voice soft , I look back at him.

"Come here." he says.

I roll my eyes but walk over regardless , he spreads his legs slightly and for some idiotic reason I step inbetween them , he moves his hand up my chest slowly before he wraps his arms around my neck.

His eyes remind me of northern lights , which is wierd because I've never actually seen it.

And then.. he smiles at me , I know what he's thinking , he's wrong.

"Wren , you know this isn't gonna be something." I tell him.

"Sure baby." he says in that same soft voice , his smile turning into a slight grin.

I tilt my head at the name "Don't."

"No idea what you're talking about." he grins.

I roll my eyes and step back , his arms around my neck pull me right back however.
"Wren." I warn.

"Just a minute." he pleads.

I glare at him but stay put , he huffs before I feel his fingers run through my hair , it takes me a second to realise the sensation is his hands.

I'm about to step back again but he pulls me closer before I can.

"Why are you so eager to get away from me ?" he questions , I scoff "Why are you so eager to touch me ?" I shoot right back.

"Because I like you." he responds without hesitation , without having to think of the awnser.

"You can't like someone you don't know."

"But I do know you." he narrows his eyes.

"No you-" my words are caught in my throath when his nails scrape over my scalp slowly , I suck in a breath , glaring at the stupid grin on his face before I close my eyes.

I feel his breath on my jaw before he whispers "See ? I knew you'd like that."

"You're lucky I'm not cutting your hands off." I mutter as he massages his fingers against my scalp.

He chuckles "Well that would be a shame , they're pretty usefull."

I open my eyes to look at him , he pulls back slightly , his eyes locking with mine as he does.

I finally bring myself to pull away as I step back , he lets me before he hops off the counter , brushing past me as he walks over to the coffee machine , he walks back up to me and hands me the cup , I take it , raising my eyerow at him again , he shrugs "I don't drink coffee." he says simply before he walks out of the kitchen.

I glance over at the coffee machine "Hey who says I drink coffee ?!" I call out.

"I told you I know you Raiden .. oh and there's a coffee machine in a cabin that's supposed to be yours genius." he calls back out to me.

Right.

Shaking my head at the stupid machine I walk back to the living room to find Wren sitting in my spot.

I drag my hand over my face , pulling out my phone , it's four AM.

"It's late Wren."

"Yeah , don't look at me , you're the one up here doing god knows what in the middle of the night as if you're batman." he rolls his eyes while he gets comfortable under the blanket.

He looks so... stupid.

"Whatever." I mumble , walking over as I take a sip of the coffee before putting it down on the table as I sit down on the couch , Wren picks up my laptop before he places it onto my lap.

I glance over at him as he snuggles up with the blanket.

"You planning on sleeping here ?" I question.

He huffs , giving me this sassy look "Possibly. Do you care ?" he challenges.

I shake my head "Not at all." I grit out under my breath , turning my attention to the laptop.

Wren ends up falling asleep on the couch about half an hour later , I continue working , glancing over at him every few minutes to find him fast asleep every time.
