*AU // University*

   After months of stress, I was able to sleep peacefully after knowing the results of my exams. But if it hadn't been for Jake's help, I would have probably ended up sick. I had tried to avoid it, since he was already busy enough with his work to take care of me, but he had insisted. So, after everything he has done for me, I want to reward him now that I am free from exams, by taking care of him now.

    I wake up and slowly sit up, checking to see if he's sleeping soundly. I touch his face, but he doesn't respond. I give him a quick, careful kiss on the cheek, lifting his arm from my body to get out of bed. If it weren't for my decision, I would stay in his arms longer. But I'm determined to prepare everything he likes for him. It's time to pamper him a little. It'll be Jake's week: Watching his favorite movies and series, watching him play while I'm sitting on his lap or even if he wants to go somewhere special. I'm not going to let him get all the attention because of my good grades.

    After showering and putting on comfortable, clean clothes, I grab all the ingredients to make pancakes. I bought them yesterday, deciding that the first thing I would make for him would be a delicious breakfast.

    I avoid eating the ingredients while cooking, I tend to snack a little while cooking and then barely eat because I'm already satisfied, but with Jake, things have changed. Now when we meet up, depending on whether it's in his apartment or mine, each one cooks for the other. But as I mentioned, he's done everything these months.
    I smile while I do it, it feels like we're married, but we haven't even talked about it yet, we prefer to do it when I'm done with university. Maybe more for my father, because he would surely have a heart attack if we decided to run away now and do it without anyone knowing... Although it's not a bad idea.

    I chuckle at the thought as I finish decorating. I'll leave the cream and syrups up to him.
    I feel his arms wrap around me and I turn my head slightly, watching Jake.

    "And this?" He asks while giving me a kiss on the cheek, "Did you really get up early to make me breakfast?"

    "I was very hungry after last night," I answer, placing my hands on his arms, caressing them.

    "Do you mean lying on the bed and snoring?" He jokes and I give him a little tap on the arm, laughing.

    "Hey, I deserved to sleep, just like you," I change my tone to a sweeter one, "we've been very busy, we deserved to rest."

    "The fact that you slept first calmed me down, you have been nervous until the results came out," he caresses my cheek, also with a sweet tone, "and I liked watching you sleep."

    "Wow, I'm glad to know that, Edward Cullen."

    He rolls his eyes at that way of calling him. Still, he knows my love for the saga films and has never laughed at me. And we've both watched our favorite series to get a feel for each other's tastes. We feel great sharing our tastes.

    "I will let you pass this time," he tries to put on a more serious tone, but a smile escapes, letting me understand that he is not offended.

    "Thank you for letting me know," I pick up the jar of cream and start shaking it. "Do you want cream on your pancakes, syrup or both?"

    "Mmm... I think I will choose―" I don't let him finish the sentence because I've put the cream on his nose.

    He keeps his eyes closed, taking a deep breath while I laugh.

    "I'm sorry, it was too tempting," I continue, laughing.

    He nods and takes off the cream and thinking that he's going to eat it, he puts it on my face, leaving me surprised.
