Forbidden Love

Chapter 4

I woke the next morning to the sound of Carlie’s alarm and her body moving under mine. I grab onto her and grunt.

She giggles. “Rae. I have to get up and get ready for work. Do you have to be up anytime soon? I’ll set your alarm for when you do, if you want,” She says quietly trying to make me go back to sleep.

“I have nowhere to be today. Do you want breakfast? I’m always hungry after I spend the night drinking,” I tell her.

“Uh yeah sure. What are we having?” She asks.

We both pad out to the living room and kitchen where her bag is.

I open the fridge in the kitchen surveying its contents.

“Looks like I got bacon, eggs, sausage, and a little bit of quick mix pancake mix from the other day,” I say shaking the little bottle of mix.

She digs in her bag pulling out a fresh change of clothes then comes over and leans on the wall next to the fridge.

“Bacon and eggs sounds good. I don’t care how you make the eggs just not super runny. That always kind of grosses me out. It’s like snot,” She tells me crinkling her nose.

“I can’t do those anyways. I only get those when I go out for breakfast because I always screw them up and break the yolk,” I say pulling stuff from the fridge.

I dig into my cupboards for a couple pans and start the bacon. “Scrambled okay?” I ask.

“That’s fine,” Carlie hollers from my bedroom where she must be changing.

A few minutes later she comes out and asks if she can do anything to help. I point to where the plates are and glasses asking her to get me a glass of orange juice and whatever she wants to drink.

She grabs what I need and pours our drinks then sits down.

After a few minutes she comes up behind me. “It smells so delicious,” She whispers in my ear then sucks on my earlobe lightly.

I shake her off. “Sit down. Don’t disturb me when I’m cooking,” I say a little irritated.

“Wow. Okay sorry. Was just trying to be cute,” She says sitting back down with her hands in the air in surrender.

“Sorry I didn’t mean to snap. I just get into cooking and don’t like to be disturbed,” I tell her.

I fill our plates and sit down to eat when I hear my phone ring. I run and grab it. I see that it is Angela.

“This ought to be good,” I say to Carlie and answer the phone.

“Hello,” I say.

“OH MY GOD GIRL!!! I WANT DEETS!” Angela screams into the phone so loud that I have to hold it away from my ear and Carlie hears her just as clear as I do.

I blush. “Uh, Ang can we talk about this another time. I’m kind of busy,” I say.

“Oh my god!” She screams into the phone. I am still holding it away from my ear because I know that she is going to draw conclusions and get really loud like she always does.

I wait for it and roll my eyes at Carlie.

“She’s fucking there isn’t she! OH MY GOD RAE! You little player! Did you fuck?” Angela screaches.

I blush and let my head fall onto the table which luckily I have moved my breakfast back from.  Carlie laughs so hard she almost chokes on her breakfast.

“Oh shit. I’m sorry. I just made you blush didn’t I?” Angela asks.

I am so embarrassed that I can’t form words. Carlie grabs my phone from my ear seeing that I am not going to answer any of Angela’s questions.
