HAILEY'S POV

I took the pair of joggers and cardigan and avoided his gaze. I don't even know how to face him and worse still he was staring at me, it felt like he was looking deep into my soul.

"Thanks" I muttered and he nodded. God! I'm so ashamed of myself. I can't believe I really slapped him.

"You can use the bathroom. I'll be right back" I just nod at him and he walked out of the room. I move into the bathroom and gosh! It was so beautiful. It even has a Jacuzzi! Last time I used one was back then in London, speaking of London, I don't really miss anyone there except memories I made with my dad.

I quickly shower with the gel I saw in there, It smells like Jayden and I can't help but blush. After taking a hot shower I applied a cream and put on the joggers and the cardigan. The cloth was so big and I felt so small in it, I'm really not this tiny or am I?

I walk out of the bathroom straight into the room and stared at the bed which was king sized. The room was really very big with posters of artists and footballers, very neat and cozy. It was painted in navy blue and most of the furniture were made of gold.

The door opened and I snapped out of my thoughts. Jayden stood at the door post in all his glory as if taking in my appearance and mehn! Did he look hot!

He was shirtless and that chest... His body is so toned and those abs and muscles. Damn! He obviously works out. I trail my eyes shamelessly down his body and swallowed a lump when my eyes caught sight of the bulge on his joggers and I shot my eyes back to his face. I love how those eyes are boring into mine....

Gawd! I'm so pathetic...

"Done drooling? He asked with a smirk.

"No.... What? I wasn't.." I stammered and a grin was evident on his face. I rolled my eyes. I'm sure he's aware of how hot he is.

"You seem not to be able to take your eyes off me" he added while taking confident steps into the room.

"You're not even that hot. Those muscles are too big. Trim them!" I blabbed. Gosh I sound stupid!

"You're such a child!" He whined and gawd! He sounded so cute.

"I don't have your time young man" I giggled and he smiled at me.

"Better for you" he said still standing as he typed away on his phone. He looked so handsome with those abs and biceps. How can someone so annoying be this hot? This is not fair!

"Aren't you cold" I ask sincerely. I'm feeling cold and here he's shirtless. What if he catches a cold? He looked at me amused.

"You know I was beginning to think you're abnormal"

"I guess I am" I said my mood dropping and he worked his eyebrows as if asking for an explanation.

"I've been having this silly condition since I was little whenever it's cold or rains."

"And you're asthmatic too?" He asked.

"Yup!" I say with a small smile. He stared into space with furrowed brows. Should I apologise for slapping him earlier?
Oh poor Hailey?
I stole a glance at him and he was lost in thought.

"Uhm... Jayden.." I called and he turned to look at me.

"I'm so sorry for....I uhm. I really didn't mean to react that way.... I'm so sorry for what happened. I know I was silly but I was pissed" I stutter earning a glare from him.

"Sorry for what exactly?" He asked and I internally scoffed. Must I spit it out loud!

"I'm sorry for slapping you" I muttered and he held my gaze. His face was unreadable and I just hope he isn't going to slap me back.

"Just that Hails reminds me of someone very close to me. He was the only one that called me that so when you called me Hails hurtful memories came rolling back" I explained avoiding his gaze.

"Was?.." he muttered to himself.

"Your boyfriend?" He asked and I shook my head.

"No... My dad" I reply with a tear rolling down my cheeks. He drew closer to me and placed his hand on my cheek but I jerked away from the contact.

"You're cold" I say almost immediately and he nodded in realisation and kept his hands to himself.

"I'm sorry for being a jerk too" I heard him say and I smiled.

"Thanks"

"For what?" He asked and I smiled.

"For everything" I answered letting out a loud almost dry cough.

"Sorry" He said to me when I stopped coughing and took out a pack of drug from his drawer. I hate meds so I barely know their names. I just remember dad used to give me those whenever I caught cold.  I swallowed the tablets and drank a glass of water. He took a balm and massaged my ankle and I winced at intervals while he kept on apologising and asking if it hurts.

This was the part of Jayden I never knew existed. I've always seen him as the annoying and snobbish guy who acts like he's got everyone below his feet. I watched him rub my feet gently with warmth held in those pair of eyes whenever he looked at me. I felt like I was going to melt cause his touch made me feel things I definitely was not supposed to feel.

When he was done with my feet the pains subsided and I must confess he's a pro at this. 

"Thanks" I say to him while gazing into his eyes and he smiled at me. He looked ten times hotter when he smiles.

"You're welcome" he says in his baritone voice and I nodded. I just hope I won't do something stupid.

After what felt like forever, he stood up from his position and said he was going to spend the night in the restroom. I wanted to ask him why but I realized maybe he wasn't going to be comfortable sharing his room with me and it left a thug at my chest.

Why have I been showing a lot if emotions tonight?

I watched him exit the room and I let the breath I didn't know I held for a long time. My mind went back to Drake and I felt anger wash through me. I was angry at myself for being stupid and dancing to his tunes. And to think the idiot stole my first made me want to punch him in the face.

Omigosh I'm so excited 🤭🤭🤭
Hailey and Jayden are finally far from being enemies...
I guess?🤷
Cos those two can be silly and unpredictable atimes but let's just watch and see what's gonna happen next.
