Chapter 37: Plotting Something

The next morning, I decided not to go to the shop again and I wanted to spend more time with Rune. Although we don't have any plans for today so I doubt that he is planning to go somewhere. Maybe work?

But right now, it's almost noon but Rune is still not getting out of bed. He's still asleep. And I already had my shower and everything and he still didn't even move a single muscle from his position. He didn't even noticed me unwrapping his arms around me when I woke up to brush my teeth.

Was he that tired last night? Yet he still manages to meet up with his friends though.

Well, I remember he told me last night when we got home because I asked him.

"They are the only family that I got when I had nothing."

I understand him. Friends really does can fix a hole in your heart when you feel like you're alone. Jeez, I didn't know what to do with my life without Ariana. She's my best friend, my sister, my mother, my psychologist, even my doctor sometimes because she knows how to make me feel better.

I was sitting on one of my couches inside my room, reading some random novel that Dad left for me when Rune started to wake up. He slowly opened his eyes and stretched his arms. "Good morning, my lady."

I chuckled with a scoff. "More like its noon already, mister."

"Noon? I slept that long?" He sat up, causing the sheets to fall down on his lap, giving me a full view of his muscular body. Damn those abs of his. They are ripping and screaming to be touch. And damn, why am I thinking of this thoughts? "Can't get enough of this, my lady?" He noticed me staring at his body.

I blushed and looked away, I dropped the book on the table. "You should get up now. Do you have any plans for today?"

"Actually I do." He removes the sheets and stands up and didn't seems to care that he's naked like the day he was born. Rune walks towards my spot and places his hands on my waist to pull me closer to him. "We are going to St. Dominique today so be ready in an hour. Bring some clothes too, we might not be home tonight that soon." 

"Erm...okay. What are you planning to do there?" I asked, crossing my arms and arching a brow.

"Just want us to be alone." He whispered then brings his lips down to give me a gentle kiss. I don't know but his morning breathe still smells like mint. And he's been sleeping too long! How is that even possible? "I will just go take a shower."

"Go." I told him then he ran off to my bathroom and then I took that time to get my things ready. I don't want know why he suddenly wants to go there but Rune must have missed them. Especially Yohan or Margaret. But I don't mind though, it's good to visit them once in a while since they were so kind to me.

I didn't packed that heavy though. It just a light one, some few clothes and shoes. I don't know how long we are going to stay there but I'm sure it won't take that long since we both have work soon.

I already finished packing when Rune followed me inside my walk in closet. He's already dressed up. "You ready?"

"Yep, how about you?"

"I still haven't unpacked my clothes since I arrived here, my lady." Rune took my luggage back from me and carried it instead. "shall we?"

I nodded. "Yeah, lets go. Anyway, how long are we going to stay there?"

"Only two days, I still have work though." He tenderly replied, kissing the top of my head then went on ahead.

Rune placed our things inside the trunk, he wouldn't let me do anything so I feel like a queen just letting him do all the work for me. I already told the maids that I won't be coming home for two days and I made sure that the people who will be left in the house is okay and instructed them some things.
