CHAPTER 50 – FEEL LIKE KILLING YOU

Posted on March 10, 2017 by Elawn

The takeout arrived quickly, and once the two people finished eating, night had completely fallen. After watching TV on the couch for a while, Eric led Drew upstairs to prepare her bedroom.

"Eric, I want to sleep with you." Drew pouted as she took the quilt that Eric had just fetched from inside a closet.

The man took out a pillow and dusted it off as he casually said: "Stop that, Drew. Do you want me to get in trouble ?"

"But this is your home, seriously, who will know ?"

"You're quick to forget, huh. If it weren't for this warped logic of yours, that incident a few days ago wouldn't have happened. Alright, come with me."

Drew reluctantly followed behind Eric to a spare bedroom.

"The bathroom is right here... Ah right, I forgot, you can't wash because of your knee, well whatever, go to bed early then."

Being the long-winded elder that he was, he spent some time nagging her before getting out of her bedroom and going to his study.

After writing a few pages of Resident Evil, Eric stretched, opened a drawer and pulled out a pack of cigarettes before going the balcony and gazing over the brightly-lit Los Angeles.

He sat down on a recliner, and lit a cigarette as he leaned back and somehow recalled his conversation with Annie on the phone; did he really give off the feeling of being ethereal ?

He heard a subtle sound behind him and turned around to look. Because he didn't have any pajamas to give her, Drew was wearing a loose T-shirt, and right now the lass was tiptoeing quietly, walking over like a cat. Realizing she had been found out, she cutely stuck her tongue out.

"I can't sleep." The recliner was quite spacious, so Drew gently pushed Eric to one side and laid next to him with her head on his arm.

Snatching the cigarette from Eric's hand, she skillfully took a puff before slightly knitting her eyebrows and handing it back to him.

"Too strong for you, huh ?" Eric knocked the ash off the cigarette and smiled as he asked.

"Yeah." Drew replied.

"In the future, don't touch those things." Eric said as he patted her head.

"Um...."

Nights in L.A were very cold in this season, Eric himself was fine, however Drew was only wearing a T-shirt and her legs were completely bare. He took two more puffs before stubbing out the cigarette and throwing it in the trash. Then he picked up a blanket he had put aside before, and covered both of their bodies up.
