The Love House
Chapter 8
Ellie's POV
I walked Damen to the the kitchen to make us some breakfast. I'll admit. I really suck at cooking...
Why did I offer to make him breakfast again? Oh. I'm an idiot. That's why.
"What do you want to eat?" I ask not exactly knowing what to make.
"Ummm pancakes?"
"Yeah. We have pancakes. I can make that."
I can make that? right? well let's hope I can make that.
I open the cabinet next to the fridge, stand on my tip toes, and try and grab the pancake mix.
"Need some help with that?" I flinch, not noticing he was right behind me.
"Um, yeah thanks." I say shyly. I'm not used to..people...being so close.
I grab a measuring cup from the cabinet, and Damen takes his seat on a stool, watching me.
I pour some pancake mix and water and I even cut up a few bananas and add it to the mix stuff. I don't exactly know what to call it. batter? I thought that was only for cakes and such. whatever.
I get out a pan and start pouring some on the pan. I turn around and look at Damen.
"Soo are you gonna tell me what happened last night?" I couldn't help but ask.
"Already did." he says nonchalantly.
"What would I regret?"
"Nothing."
"Damen! I want to know what I was trying to do!"
"No Ellie!"
"Why is it so hard to tell me?! It is me, I have a right to know.!"
"I'm not discussing this with you." he says simply, staring at the counter.
"Yes you are!"
"Why does it matter! I told you nothing happened!" I can see the anger in his eyes and I admit it kind of makes me flustered.
"Because Damen! I just wanna know!"
"You tried to kiss me! since you wanna know so bad! is that what you wanted to hear?! You came at me and I didn't kiss you back because I knew you wouldn't want to! but then...you-"
He was cut off by a loud beep. let me just say it wasn't just one beep. it was continuous, annoying beeping. it took me a second to recognize the sound. It was the smoke detector! IT'S THE SMOKE DETECTOR!!!
Immediately I get up and try to turn it off which is useless, might I add, because it is absolutely impossible to touch it at my height.
"Hand me a stool." Damen hands me a stool and I climb on top. I was still not tall enough to turn it off, so I slowly climbed onto my tip toes. I still couldn't reach.
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
JUST SHUT UP YOU STUPID SMOKE THINGY!!!
While I was having a screamo concert in my head, I lost balance and soon felt the adrenaline course through my veins. I felt a slight breeze, and I closed my eyes, bracing myself for the hard ground. but the ground never came. Damen's arms did though. Damen's HARD arms did though.
He laughs. "Easssy Tiger."
I look at his amused smirk and he sets me on the ground.
He climbs on the stool and turns it off in a freaking millisecond!! Of course he could do it. I, on the other hand, burn pancakes, set off a smoke detector, and climb on a stool and almost fall to my death.
He gets down and smirks at me.
"Don't give me that face." I say kind of pouting. I know. Ellie! grow up!
he chuckles and moved to the stove, but I quickly shove him out the way.
"I can manage." I glare at him.
I turn towards the stove and remove the pan. I go to set it on the back burner but then I accidentally spill the mix stuff/batter all over the counter.
A frustrated scream escapes my mouth and I stomp out the way, letting Damen take over.
Today just IS NOT my day.
Damen just snickers and goes to the stove cleaning my mess up and moving the pan away from the hot burner.
After he was done cleaning up my FAIL, he turned with a smirk.
"Shut up." I mumble.
"You're cute when you're mad."
Immediately my cheeks burn.
"Oh, and when you blush too."
I send a glare his way, and he smiles.
Just then Sophie comes down the stairs. I had almost forgot she was supposed to sleep over last night.
"Hey guys. What's up with all the racket?" She says tiredly.
"We were just heading to go get some McDonald's or something." I say grabbing my keys. Damen giggles, Soaps complies, and we all make our way to the car.
