Why'd You Come Back?

I'm Taking Care of a Five Year-Old

I woke up with the taste if blood in my mouth from biting the inside of my cheek to keep from screaming. There was also the smell of bacon emenating from the kitchen. As much as I'd love to get up and investigate, I was just too tired to. I snuggled deeper into my covers and curled myself up more in its warmness.

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK

Knocks began rapping on my door, but I just ignored them. I need my beauty sleep.

I heard the door creak open, "Willow, wake up." Dallin whispered.

"No, go away."

"Grumpy aren't we?" he chuckled. The door creaked open more and I could hear the thuds of his steps. Suddenly, I was smashed into my bed by a very heavy Dallin.

"Dallin! Get off me!" I struggled from under his weight.

"Not unless you get out of bed. Come on it's a new day."

"What day is it today?" I asked. Clearly confused by which day it was since I was completely groggy.

"Friday."

"Dallin!" I whined, "The bookstore is closed today. I just want to sleep in."

"Shut up and get up." He ordered "I made breakfast." He said in a sing-songy voice.

I groaned. "Get off of me then." My voice was muffled from the covers that currently covered my face.

His weight soon lifted off of me. I looked over at Dallin to find him shirtless. To say he had a great body was an understatement. He was like a Greek God!

I looked up from his well defined six pack and amazing looking muscles to find him smirking at me. I rolled my eyes and threw the covers off me and headed towards the bathroom. I turned around to tell Dallin to get out, but instead found him gawking at me with his mouth open and eyes wide.

"What?"

"Willow, you're...you're..." he stuttered. I put my hand on my hip, waiting for him to give me an answer, "you're not wearing any shorts." he finally said.

I looked down to my lower body. My eyes opened in realization to find he was right. I shook my head and tried to act cool, "It's just underwear, Dallin. Now get out."

He immediately turned around and tried to walk out as fast as possible. Unfortunately, that led him into walking straight into the wall.

"Ow!" he slighty yelled. I tried to stiffle my laugh, but couldn't and burst out laughing.

"Shut up, Willow, and go do whatever you were about to do." Dallin ordered as he left the room. This time not harming himself.

I sobered up and went into the bathroom to freshen up. I decided to take a shower and stripped down.

Almost twenty minutes later, I heard soft knocks on my bathroom door. "Willow, are you almost done? The food's getting cold."

"Dallin! I'm in the shower! I'll be out in just a mintue!"

"Okay, okay." He said as he left.

I turned off the water and dried myself off. I got dressed in my usual hoodie and leggings. I walked out of my room to find Dallin seated at the table with a plate of food in front of him and another for me.

"What's all this?" I asked.

"Breakfast. Duh."

I rolled my eyes. "What I mean is, when did you learn how to cook?"

He shrugged, "Picked up a few skills while I was away."

I nodded and began stuffing my face with food. There was bacon, eggs, and potatoes. "This is really good." I exclaimed to Dallin with a mouthful of food.
