Tell me something about yourself that I don't know about
I tossed and turned. Despite the pink silks and the rose petal stuffed mattress, I couldn't find the right position that kept my comfort. Eventually, I give up on my slumber and get up, perhaps a beverage could soothe my insomnia.
Yes, I was the type of girl who slept in my underwear, it was certainly more convenient. So, I wrapped myself in my silk robe to compensate for my lack of clothing. I figured that nobody would be awake at this time.
I slipped on my fendi slippers, walking towards the door. The hallway lights were fortunately lit to guide my way, since the idea of darkness in a mansion as big as this one had frightened me a little. Especially since this private estate was definitely isolated, I'd heard that the Fitzpatrick family had owned more than 600 acres of land - that's a lot of acres.
"Oh my god!" I screeched, shocked when I certainly wasn't expecting someone in the kitchen at this hour, especially in the dark. "What the hell, couldn't you turn the lights on!" I tried to regulate my heart rate after that drastic panic and startle, taking slow deep breaths.
"Nice to see you too" He replies sarcastically.
I soon realise it's Toni. Not a regular Toni, a shirtless Toni. I must say so myself, I underestimated him. I definitely never expected him to have such a defined, muscular figure. His view from the back was just as glorious as his image from the front.
"Let me guess, couldn't sleep?" He estimated.
"Yeah, I guess I'm just not use to the new queen-sized bed" I giggled.
"Coffee?" He offers, slyly glancing down at my exposed cleavage in the lace bra, seeping through the silk robe.
"I'm sure that's supposed to keep you awake not help you sleep" I raised an eyebrow.
"Fine, hot chocolate?" He compromised.
"Please and thank you" I responded. "So, what's your excuse? why are you awake?"
"Well, I'm nocturnal" he joked.
"Fair enough" I sighed. "So you gonna tell me why do you hate me so much?" I straightforwardly asked him. It wasn't hard to establish that Toni wasn't too fond of me like most boys were, who were desperately falling at my feet. He was quiet and unique, which made him mysterious, that was my type of alluring.
"Hate is a very strong word" He correctes. "Perhaps a negative vibe is what you meant" I rolled my eyes.
"Fine, you wanna know. I find it annoying how everyone worships you like you're some kind of goddess, it makes me wonder, what makes you greater than everybody else" he proclaims.
"You think I ask to be worshipped?" I furrowed my eyebrows.
