Pineapple

Chapter Ten

I wake up the next morning to Lee kissing my neck Non stop.

"good morning to you too caveman" I say with sarcasm trying to escape his lips.

Instead of greeting he just carries on but this time showering my whole face with kisses. Just like my first dog, Dolce who died two years back, would every morning.

I just compared my boyfriend to a dog. Wow.

"you look beautiful even in the morning." he says and stares at me with a lot of intensity in his eyes.

I just realised that it's like 6 am in the morning and I probable look like a mess with bad morning breath.

I look at Lee with wide panicking eyes and I try to slip from his hold to run to the bathroom and make myself look presentable.

"you don't look bad pineapple, I kind of like seeing you like this. It makes me imagine us when we are married." he says casually as if him saying that is normal.

"if you want to deal with morning breath for the rest of your life." I say back to him while leaning my head back a little.

"I don't mind and your breath doesn't stink. I would deal with morning breath and more for you sweet stuff." he says and winks back at me.

This boy is really impossible. I can't believe I'm dating the bad boy of the school and he's acting like the cutest teddy bear in the shop and sweetest candy in the candy shop. The saying 'don't judge a book by its cover really applies'. Sometimes we make a conclusion about people based on other people's conclusions about them.

"how about we play a game." he suggests.

So instead of a "good morning" I receive a "do you want to play a game". Wow. I really do know how to choose em now don't I?

"sure Lee, what's it called?" I say with a sigh.

"I just made it up. So we have to exchange pick up lines until one of us doesn't have anymore and they loose. Is that good." he asks smiling like an idiot.

"okay sounds interesting. But stop smiling as if you discovered a cure for cancer and HIV." I say not pleased about how happy he is so early in the morning.

"stop being grumpy." he says and pinches my nose lightly.

"I'll try to be as jolly as you." I say forcing a smile through gritted teeth.

"good" and taps my nose with his pointing finger. "so I'm going to start." he says.

"wait can I change the game just a bit. How about we have to retort back to each others pick up lines." I ask suddenly developing an interest to the game.

" and that's why you're my favorite person because you are down right smart." he says and leans in for a peck on my lips.

I groan a little when he doesn't hold the kiss longer. But it's okay I got him 24/7, everyday honey.

"okay start Lee." I say impatiently.

"if I could rearrange the alphabet I'd start with U and I." he says winking at me, pretty chafed at himself.

"too bad N and O are at the right place." I say back confidently just so shut him up.

"am I in or am I out?" I ask him.

"out" he says way too quickly with a smug look.

"out of the darkness and into the light that is your love." I say with a wider grin.

"what's your sign baby coz you got quickie written all over you?" he says and grins.

"okay you win I got nothing." I say at a loss for words.
