Stitches

Eleven

When I went out again wearing the blue-green scrubsuit he gave me, which not surprisingly fits my size, I found Craite and Spencer in the kitchen preparing something and they both wear aprons. It stunned me literally.

"We're making california maki." Spencer smiled.

"I'm gonna go smoke."

I went immediately to the balcony and lit one cigarette then watched them work in the kitchen. I really don't understand why I can smell some bromance in the scene.

"Hey guys?" I called from the outside.

They looked at me simultaneously. Craite is busy with japanese rice and Spencer is busy slicing the cucumber. I was holding my phone and ready to get some good pictures of them together.

"I'm thinking of making the sequel to Brokeback Mountain. You'd be a great love team, kitchen edition." I captured their awkward glance at each other.

"Bromance!" I laughed.

Just when Crisfer arrived from work. She was talking to Chichi on the phone and was surprised when he saw Spencer and Craite.

"What the?" She stopped and saw me laughing. "I need a smoke too."

She walked towards me and closed the door behind her. I gave her one cigarette and light it up. She said goodbye to Chichi.

"What are they doing there?" She asked.

"California something." I answered.

"Is he serious about you now?" She asked again.

"We never talked about it." I finished my smoke.

"His actions tells me he is." She cracked her neck.

"Crisfer!" I cried.

"Spencer told me it was superficial. I mean, he's the guy, so he understand his own kind. I told him your attachment doesn't work on him so I'd probably consider him a good influence to you, but I didn't consider his attachment to you."

"But Spencer said it is superficial, and you are talking about me behind my back." I frowned.

"Well, now he wants to hang out with us. That's something questionable, and Spencer is the one who opened it up. That's after your suicidal stories to him." She finished her smoke too and we went inside together.

"Fix your things, we have to drop by somewhere before heading to SSMC." Craite commanded while putting some california maki on a square container.

I went to the sink and brushed my teeth. Spencer went out to smoke.

"Help yourself." I heard Craite talk to Crisfer.

Crisfer started eating.

"Taste awesome." She commented.

"Am I welcome here anytime now?" Craite asked.

I was done brushing when I saw him untangling his apron but failing so I helped him take it off.

Crisfer grinned at me and I felt my cheek blush.

"Thanks babe." He absentmindedly said.

I walked away to get my backpack on the couch.

"Of course! Popo would be delighted too for sure. Although you gotta watch out for him I mean he's covered with tons of pheromones lately." She giggled.

I took the square containers with the california maki and the sauces and put in inside my backpack.

He was washing his hands on the sink.
