How Not To Fall In Love

Chapter 10: Stay

Not really sure how you think about it something in the way you move makes me feel like I can't live without you. It takes me all away. I want you to stay.

Did someone open my window? 

I jumped out of bed when the sun's rays is high, lightning up my room. I checked my digital clock and shows 10 o'clock in the morning. Crap.

I hurriedly open the door and went to the kitchen, suddenly I felt hungry. Did I miss dinner last night? I tried to recall but then I can't even remember the last time I've eaten breakfast. I saw a meal that was already prepared on the table. Great! I'm so blessed. So I sat down and ate.

I heard a door slowly opened so I looked up and saw Ashton coming out of the bathroom. Half dressed. With his jeans on.

"You're up already. Do you feel better?" He asked while wiping his face on the towel.

"I uh. I do feel better now. Did-  did-         did you made all of these?" I asked and grabbed the glass of water beside me.

Oh someone got cooked right now. Haha

"Yeah. Was it good? By the way, I'm sorry to use your bathroom without permission." He said grabbing his navy blue shirt and covered himself up.

It's fine you can use it whenever you want to. Oh wait, no. That went wrong. What was I even thinking? Oh my gosh. Did I miss something in there?

"No you didn't." He chuckled.

That went wrong too. I just didn't say that out loud.

"Oh." I replied shyly. "Thanks for cooking. The food is really delicious." I smiled at him.

"Good. I'm just gonna go check some stuff with Eric but I'll be back. Do you want me to buy something along the way?" He asked.

"You don't need to come back here. You still got work to do. I'll be fine." I say.

He looked at me warily. "Are you sure?" And arched his back to lace his shoes.

He seemed to be in a hurry as I've observed. There must be an important thing he's working on to. I shouldn't be such a burden. And besides I can be just fine on my own.

"Yes. Of course. You've done enough for me." He just stood near the door reassuring of my condition. "It was just a headache. But thanks. I really appreciate everything." I smiled.
