Seasons: Summer (Chapter 14- Sophie)

Sophie slowly opened her eyes as she woke up. The cold relaxing breeze drifted gently through the screen door and touched her cheeks. She sat up slowly, feeling a growing pain in her head. She settled her hand flatly on top of her forehead.

" Warm? " a familiar voice appeared.

Sophie jereked her head to see who was the person who spok, she found Jeremy.

" Nah, I'm just feeling a little head ache growing " Sophie answered with a weak smile.

" Want me to get you something? " Jeremy asked.

" Uhmm, do you have dr. pepper on the fridge? " Sophie asked.

" Yeah, I'll cook you something too. Be right back " Jeremy replied.

Sophie felt secure and safe as Jeremy said those words. She raised her arm and peeked at her watch.

" Five o' clock? Woah, maybe I was really drunk " Sophie murmured to herself.

After a few minutes, Sophie could smell something coming from the kitchen. The scent was so beautiful that it made Sophie curious of what was Jeremy cooking. She stood up and made her way to the kitchen even though she was feeling a little dizzy.

" Hey " Sophie said.

" Hi " Jeremy replied while focusing on cooking.

" Whatcha cookin'? " Sophie asked.

" Crab and corn soup ' Jeremy replied.

" Okay I think this is done " Jeremy added.

Jeremy grabbed two bowls and two spoons from the utensil rack, and placed them on the kitchen's counter. Jeremy wore mittens and lifted thecooking pot and transfered the soup in the two bowls.

" Want some help? " Sophie asked.

" Nah, just get some dr. pepper and wait for me at the living room " Jeremy replied.

" Okay~ " Sophie replied with that "innocent-girl-tone".

Sophie opened the fridge which was just next to Jeremy and searched for a bottle of dr. pepper.

" Pepper... pepper... pepper... " Sophie mumbled as she searched for a bottle of dr. pepper.

" Oh, there you are! " Sophie said as she found it.

She held the dr. pepper bottle and closed the refridgerator, and made her way back to the living room.

" Why is he that nice all of a sudden? " Sophie asked herself confusingly.

As she arrived on the living room, Sophie sat on the couch at a crossed-leg manner. She settled the bottle of dr. pepper on the small table infront of her. She stared at the birds outside of the cabin which was visible through the screen door.Gentle breeze blew and hit Sophie, she grabbed the bottle again and opened it. And sipped a little from it.

" Okay here's the soup ' Jeremy said as he settled the tray on the table.

Sohpie sat up straight, settling her feet on the floor.

" Here's one for you, and this one's mine " Jeremy added as he distributed the bowls.

Jeremy sat beside Sophie, carrying his bowl and spoon. Sophie held the spoon and started eating silently. 

" By the way what are we going to talk about? And why tonight? " Jeremy asked suddenly.

" We'll see " Sophie replied.

" Are these one of your surprise thingies again? " Jeremy asked again.

" We'll see " Sophie replied.

" Do I really have to wait? " Jeremy asked.

" Do you really have to ask these many questions? " Sophie asked.

" Oh sorry " Jeremy apologized.

" Okay then " Jeremy added.

" Just eat your soup, it'll get cold if you just talk there " Sophie said.

" How does it taste by the way? " Jeremy asked.

" It's good " Sophie replied as she digged in like a little child.

Both of them continued to eat silently, while the gentle breeze blows towards them.
