I love him but I hate me

"Ugh," I exclaim "it's so hot in here!" I say pacing around the living room.

It's 37 degrees outside and I fell like I'm going to melt away from this earth . Today is extra hot because we are in the middle of July .

"Why don't we have a fan in this house ," Lucas says " It's not like we live in Antarctica not to have any ." He rolls his eyes , getting up from the couch coming towards me .

"Don't get near me u sweaty man!" I say stepping back holding my hand in front of me , as a sign not to approach .

He groaned then added," Oh , come on!"

"Go take a shower , and I'll call Eve to ask her if she has one more fan." Elijah went this morning to Eve's dorm so they can spend their free time together. On the second ring , Eve picks up .

"Hey!" She answers .

"Hey Eve , do u have another fan to spare?" I ask.

"Yeah ," she says " do u want it?"

"Yup , we are coming over in 40."

"Ok , see u !" She says , then hangs up .I place my phone in my back pocket , then I go upstairs in my room to change from my pjs .

I put on a navy tank top and a white short skirt . I pair it with some Nike socks and my Jordan shoes.Being done early I do a list in my mind , checking for everything.

Clothes . Check.
Makeup . Check.
Hair. Check.
Perfume . Check.

Yup , everything is done I only need to wait for Lucas to get out of the shower , then we can go .I pick up my phone and step out of my room .If I'll wait in the living room he might take more time to get ready so I'll just go into his room.

I make courage to enter his room. I am ready to be terrified by the mess in his room and the clothes thrown on the floor and food everywhere but no . Its clean . Very clean . I think I'm the problem now . His room might be 10 times cleaner than mine .

Ok , I think . That's nice .

His room is kind of the same as mine . Its the same bed , same dresser , same window and more things .He has signed t-shirts that are kept in some kind of transparent frame. I bet they are worth a lot of money .

Where I have my vanity , he has a simple white desk with a laptop on it . His room smells a lot like him.

The room was filled with a crisp , invigorating scent, like crushed mint leaves freshly plucked from a garden. It was cool and sharp , with a faint sweetness that lingered in the air.

His bathroom door was still closed so I just sat on the edge of the bed.I opened my phone , swiping on social media .

Click.

I hear the bathroom door opening and from instinct I look and see a shirtless Lucas with water beads falling from his wet hair on his well made chest and abdomen . His lower part is only covering by the towel .

"Take a picture ," he says " I can't stay here the whole day waiting for u to finish staring ." He ends it with a smirk .

"Who said I was staring?!" I say feeling offended .

Ok , I admit . I was starring but I won't admit in front of him.

"What helps u sleep at night , princess ."
He says coming towards me.

I slowly take steps back . I don't know why , but that's what my mind says . I don't have control over my legs right now .

"Do I make u nervous , amore ?" He mocking says .
