Y/N's POV

**next day**

Three.

Two.

One.

Ding!

The brownies were ready. I quickly jumped and put on my gloves. Rushing to the oven, I pulled the tray out and placed the brownies carefully onto the dining room table, which was abundant with food. I quickly placed another batch into the oven. It has really what I've been doing all day. We reached home about 10 in the morning. Forcing Ariana to get a good sleep, I pushed her towards her bedroom and she slept like a baby.

After making sure that she was sleeping, I took a nap and woke up later around one in the afternoon. I tried waking her up but she was sleeping like a dead body. I wanted to pour a bucket full of water over her but she was just too cute, sleeping. And she looked extremely sleep deprived, both mentally and physically so I let her be.

After that, I ate some fresh ciabatta bread that Shira gave to us early in the morning and decided to cook some food so that when Ariana wakes up, she would have something to eat. It is currently four in the evening and she still hasn't woken up. But, I did hear shuffling behind the door to her room just a few minutes ago.

Dusting imaginary dirt off my hands, I took off my baking gloves and walked towards her room. I heard another sound behind her door again and I quickly opened the door.

She was awake.

The problem was that, she was standing there, after a nice fresh shower, water droplets rolling down her feminine arms. She had her arms holding together a white towel, which was wrapped around her body loosely, and I was afraid it was gonna fall down.

Would I mind if it did?

My eyes widened when I met her's. She had caught me red-eyed gawking at her. There was a playful smirk dancing in her lips and with a swift move, she pulled me into the room. My hand met her covered chest and I couldn't breathe while feeling her generous curves against mine.

"Good evening." She said, a smug smile on her face as she tugged a strand of my hair behind my ear. "Didn't know you were so eager to come and see me."

"I-I thought you were sleeping-"

"Everyone here knows that you're using that as an excuse." Ariana winked, leaning closer. She smelled of strawberries. A water droplet from her long wet hair dropped to my neck and I stiffened visibly. Noticing that, she immediately started shaking her head while chuckling. A rain of water droplets fell on my and I whacked her arm, making her let me go while continuing to laugh.

"Ariana you are a dog!" I said, wiping away all the water from my face. She laughed amusedly, resting her hands on her hips and I tried to yank my eyes away from the now even looser towel right above her chest. For a moment, her laughter made me smile because she looked so tense at the hospital and now she is better again.

"Do you need a towel?" Ariana said, a mischievous glint shining in her chocolate eyes. "I've got a towel right here for you. I can remove it for you-"

"No!" I yelled, covering my eyes and her hands started pulling on her towel. Her laughter filled the entire room, bouncing off the walls and I could feel her arms circle my waist once again. I was pressed up against her all over again and I still didn't dare remove my hands from my face.

"Open your eyes KitKat." Her breath fanned my ear and goosebumps erupted on my skin. "Don't be shy. You'll have to see my body sooner or later." She whispered teasingly, as if she knew it was gonna happen. My cheeks blushed a deep red at what she said and she removed my hands away from my face, adjusting her towel briefly, before reaching foreword and kissing my forehead. My heart fluttered and her plump lips brushed my forehead teasingly after kissing. It's still a mystery to me how she makes my heart race so fast.
