Chapter 14

I woke up to my phone ringing endlessly on the bedside table. My arms felt weak as I try to reach for my phone. With heavy eyelids, I read the name of the one who called me seconds ago. Mom.

Oh

My

God

21 missed calls from Mom. 50 missed calls from Dad.

What the fudge! I'm so screwed.

I hurriedly jumped out of bed and realized that I am still inside Luca's bedroom. Wait, how did I even get here? I remember settling on his couch but I didn't remember myself crashing on Luca's bed. My feet carried me outside and a delicious smell filled in my nostrils. When I entered the kitchen, I saw food already placed on the table. My stomach instantly grumbled at the sight.

Where the hell is Luc- Oh my mother of all hotness.

My eyes widened and my mouth felt dry at the sight of Luca. He was only wearing a pair of pants and somehow he decided it's sexy to cook without a t-shirt. His defined abs were full on display for me to look at while his right hand was holding a spatula. My gaze traveled up his face and his eyes was already on me. The corner of his lips instantly curled up into a smirk.

"Stop drooling Alexandra."

I blushed. Still a jerk. I started to walk towards him but his gaze never left mine. "Are you feeling better?" I asked. I was now in front of him, looking up and holding his gaze. His eyes seemed more alive, piercing through my blue ones. from

"I'm fine now." He stated as he started to turn away from me but he froze when I settled my hand on his forehead, feeling his temperature. He seemed okay now, the medicine did its job well.

I realized that my hand was still on Luca's forehead so I started to peel it away from him but Luca's eyes were already on me. His stare was deep, like his searching deep within my soul. For what? I don't know. I was startled when Luca placed his hand on my cheek. He leaned forward, now our faces were an inch close. He was so close to me our noses were already touching. My heart was beating so fast I hope he hadn't heard it. My palms were already sweating and I was frozen in place. Our lips brushed for a millisecond when something burning caught my attention.

"The bacon is burning!" I screamed as I pointed at the pan.

"Shit! Shit!" Luca mattered as he struggled to get the pan to the kitchen sink. I immediately let the water flow. "Now the bacon is burned." He said as he threw the burnt bacon inside the trash bin.

"Will the pancakes do?" He asked as he walked towards the table and set two plates.

"Uh, yeah sure but I really need to go. My mom will skin me alive." I sighed as I glanced at my phone.

"Don't worry. I have already told them. They said I can have you all to myself today. And guess what? I will" He smiled, showing his pearly white teeth.

"Can you stop doing that?"

"Doing what?" He was now filling up two glasses with orange juice.

"You act like I am a disease you want to get rid off and then now you act so nice. I really can't understand you."

"Trust me Alexandra, getting rid of you is far from what I want to do." He said as he walked towards me, his gaze penetrating through mine. Within seconds, Luca has closed the distance between us, our bodies touching. My back hit the kitchen counter where I leaned both of my hands for support. I looked up and I almost kissed him. Almost. Luca smirked and leaned forward that I had to arch my body towards him. He leaned even more and I my heart was starting to skip a bit.
