Please... Save Me (Stud4Stud)

Chapter 12

~Chris's P.O.V.~

The sound of Lil Xan's Betrayed rang through my ears, waking me from my peaceful slumber. I find myself reaching for the device it's coming from, only to realise that it's in Amber's back pocket. She was passed out with her leg still on top of me, so I reached over and pulled it out, cutting off the alarm before it woke anyone else up.

Looking at the time on Amber's phone, I see that it's now seven o'clock. I guess, at some point during the movie, we ended up going to sleep. Trying my best not to wake them up, I slide out of bed. I do a little yawn and stretch before getting our mugs and the empty cookie package.

I walk downstairs and into the kitchen where I see that the steaks were now fully thawed out. 'Great' I thought. 'I can cook before they wake up.'

Quickly washing the mugs and putting them away, I take out a cast iron skillet and sit it on the stove. Allowing it to heat up before lightly oiling it with olive oil. I take the steaks out of their packaging and place them on a plate before seasoning them and placing them in the hot skillet. While that was going, I go to look in the pantry for what I could make to go with the steaks. There wasn't much, but I saw a bag of potatoes and grabbed them. I was gonna make mashed potatoes.

Grabbing a pot from the bottom cabinets, I fill it up with warm water and set it on the stove to boil. I grabbed a bowl and three potatoes and began to peel and cut them. When I was done, I placed them in the boiling water and went to check on the steaks.

One side down, one to go.

I flipped them over, letting the other side cook while I went to find a vegetable to go with our dinner. The freezer was my next stop. Looking inside, I saw a few veggies, but I didn't really know what they liked and disliked, so I settled for geen beans.

I took the frozen bag out of the freezer and almost jumpped out of my skin when I saw King behind the freezer door. She was leaning up against the counter, smirking at me.

"Daddy, you scared me. Don't do that!" I whisper yelled.

I had given up trying to find out what's wrong with me and just let it flow. It seemed so natural to me. But I wasn't ready to tell anyone about it yet; not even Amber...if she was up, anyway.

King came up to me and wrapped her arms around my waist, putting her head in the crook of my neck. Her hot breathe making the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.

"Mi dispiace, Principessa. I didn't mean to scare you." She husks out.

My breathe hitches and my heartbeat speeds up. I just nod my head, not trusting my voice.

"Whatcha cookin?" She asks.

Then I remember.

I lightly push her out of the way and rush over to the steaks. They were perfect...on the outside. Good. I turned on the oven and used my kithen towel to slide the skillet inside. I then pull out one more pot and set it on the stove. I rip open the bag of green beans and season them, putting a lid on it and turning my attention to the potatoes.

"So...you gonna answer me?" I hear King say behind me.

I lightly roll my eyes in annoyance. I know good and damn well that she had just seen me put the steaks in the oven and start the green beans. Hell, she's watching me get the mashed potatoes together. But, to avoid getting in trouble I just sigh and tell her anyway.

"Steak, green beans, and mashed potatoes." I huff.

Within two seconds she was right behind me and her hand was around my throat. I'd be lying if I said that it wasn't a turn-on.
