The next day It was my day of. I could hear Andrew swearing when his alarm clock went off and that swearing continued as he got dressed. He surely had a hangover which made him grumpy. I just pretended to be asleep. He could be such a prick when he was grumpy.
I almost fell asleep when I heard him come back upstairs again and coming into the bedroom.
"Babe, have a nice day" He sat down on my side of the bed and kissed my forehead gently. Right on the spot where a shiny bump showed.
"I am sorry about being such an ass yesterday. I shouldn't have said those things."
I opened my eyes and saw him looking at me with sincere pain in his eyes. He pressed another kiss on my bump. I smiled at him. "It's okay sweety" I told him lifting up my arms and wrapping them around his neck. His lips found mine and he kissed me like we did when we were teens. Kissing like this was such a turn on.
He chuckled. "I have to go to work" He muttered between kisses.
"Just a little bit longer" I muttered as he pulled away the blankets and his hands made his way underneath the t-shirt I was sleeping in.
"No. my clumsy wife" He grins and gives me another kiss on my forehead, takes his hands of me and gets up.
"Time to make some money for that new car of yours" He smiles, blows me another kiss and leaves me alone.Once I hear the front door shut I push myself up and take a long shower. I get dressed in my favorite pair of jeans and sweater and make myself breakfast. While my toast is getting ready I put my wet hair up in a messy bun and lean against the counter.
Seeing my bruise on the right side of my forehead in the big mirror opposite of me. I loosen my hair straight away and managed to cover most of it.
"Clums" I muttered to myself.
Yesterday I eventually did get in a big fight with Andrew. When he was like that he scared the hell out of me. When he threatened me into a corner yelling I had to just get him what he wanted because he made all the money I tripped and knocked my head into the kitchen counter.
Man that hurt big time. It still did so I took an aspirin before I poured my coffee and put some strawberry jam on my toast.
Just when I was ready to drop myself on the couch and watch my favorite TV shows the bell rang. With a groan I put my plate beside me and my cup on the low coffee table. I hated it when people came by unannounced.
I was greeted by a wide grin and a pair of sapphire blue eyes. Seth.
"Good morning my dear neighbor. Your husband said I could get a bit of breakfast here." He said and stepped inside without asking if he could.
"Okay" I muttered kind of thrown off by his intrusion.
"You don't mind do you? I didn't get a chance to get breakfast yet" He admitted.
"But you were in town yesterday" I followed him into the living room. He had been here before so he knew where to go.
"Just to say hi to some people. No time for shopping. Maybe you could join me in some grocery shopping later" He was in my kitchen no and casually leaned against the kitchen counter as he checked me out again.
I couldn't believe this man. My husband was his friend. Why was he acting like this? Or well, maybe it was just in my head. I was imagining things. That had to be it.
"I don't know, I have things to do" I shrugged walking pass him and getting a cup for coffee and a plate for whatever he wanted.
"Like what?" He asked following my every move making me nervous.
"Clean the house, cook diner" I lied. I was not telling him I planned on catching up on my shows. Shows Andrew hates so I had to record them.
"Look at you being the little house wife" Seth chuckled shaking his head.
"Oh fuck of Seth. I am perfectly happy like this" I poured him a cup of coffee.
He didn't respond to that. He took the cup I just handed him and wrapped his hands around mine.
"Are you?" He asked as our eyes met. He held my gaze for a second before I pulled my hands away and averted my eyes.
"Yes!" I snapped at him. "You find whatever you want. You know how this works" I gestured towards the kitchen cabinets. I wanted him gone so bad. He made me nervous!
I dropped myself back on the couch and got my own coffee taking a small sip turning on the TV.
5 minutes later Seth dropped himself next to me with a plate with several pieces of toast and an apple and a banana.
"Hungry much" I muttered stealing a glance at him. His hair looked like he just got out of bed. His clothes, a t-shirt and a pair of sweat were all crinkled like he had only just unpacked them.
"Yes I am hungry. Men are always hungry" He smirked. He could see I was checking him out this time and I immediately looked back at the TV while my cheeks turned red.He chuckled for a second and suddenly put his plate away. "What did you do!?" He bend towards me and pushed my hair back from my forehead before I could stop him
"Nothing!" I pushed his hand away.
"That's not nothing!" He disagreed with a stern voice and took my coffee away from me. "What... no!" I called out. "Don't move!" He ordered me after he turned my face toward him with both of his hands.
"It's nothing, just a bump. come on!" I grumbled annoyed.
"Are you dizzy?" He asked examining the bruise and touching it ever so gently.
I shook my head. "Headaches?"
"Since when are you a doctor?" I muttered stubbornly while I shook my head. I could feel his warm breath on my face. It smelled like toothpaste. I looked at his lips and wondered how it would be to kiss a man with a gruffly beard thing like he had. Andrew shaved himself every other day.
"Since I used my first aid a shit load of time the last few years" He grinned looking back at my eyes again catching me looking at his lips. Shit.
His grin got bigger and I pushed him away putting my hands on his chest. Rock hard... of course.
"Did you go to the hospital?" He asked like nothing was wrong but with a big grin still on his face.
"No need. Man I just crashed my head into the kitchen counter. Stop acting like my father.
Okay... My father would have never acted like that because I never had one. I always imagined a father would act like that. I got my coffee again and pulled my knees up under my chin taking small sips of hot coffee. I had to focus on my shows. Not Seth!
Seth rolled his eyes.
"If you get dizzy and or have headaches you let me know and I will drive you to the hospital!" He told me getting his plate again.
I only nodded putting all my attention into my show. Way, way more interesting than the man sitting next to me. Luckily he got the point and did the same.
