Blood Lust

Chapter Eighteen🖤

"Good morning"

I slowly peel open my eyes, grunting as the light shone brightly through the curtains. I see Grayson stood in front of me shirtless, his hair a mess as he smiled showing his pearly white teeth.

All I managed to squeak out was a little hi, which made him narrow his eyes at me.

"So what do you feel like doing today?"

I reply with a shrug.

"We could go for a walk in the woods?" He suggests

"Mhm"

"Do some baking?"

I don't say anything, but the thought of Grayson trying to bake a cake causes a smile to spread across my face.

"What's funny?"

"You and baking"

"You'll be impressed with these skills darling" he grins and I smile back.

-Time Skip-
"THAT WAS SALT GRAYSON!" I shout as he empties the bowl into the mixture

"Tastes like sugar to me" he defends

"Well clearly your taste's absolute trash" I laugh shaking my head "we'll have to restart" I go to throw the contents away but he grabs my hand and gives me a look.

That god damn look.

"Or" he starts leaning towards my ear "we could make it and give it to Ethan"

"Yes" I answer "OMG yes!"

As Grayson pours the gloopy mixture into a cake tin, I heat the oven and wait.

"THIS IS AGENT GRAYSON REPORTING FOR DUTY, READY TO ASSASSINATE THE EVIL SPY STALKER" I hear him shout and suddenly an eggs thrown at me, it's yolk running down my shirt and onto my bare stomach.

"YEAH WELL THIS EVIL SPY'S ABOUT TO KICK YOUR SORRY BUTT" I scream back, flinging a hand full of flour straight towards him.

It paints his skin white and he instantly begins hurling more eggs, flour and sugar at me.

I grab the bag of sugar from the counter and throw it into the air, causing our vision to blocked with a cloud of white.

"I'M GONNA DEFEAT YOU!" I hear his voice boom and then there's icing dripping down my face.

"NOT IF I DEFEAT YOU FIRST, YOU FILTHY PEASANT!" I say in return, squirting cream in all directions.

"Aahhhh I can't see" he laughs

"HIS DEFENCES ARE DOWN" I state "LETS FINISH THIS"

Just as I'm about to throw sugar over him, I slide on some yolk and lose my balance.

Someone grips my ankles and I'm being pulled backwards.

"GRAYSON!" I scream trying not to laugh

"I've got you now, spy" he whispers

I swiped my leg across the floor, causing him to crash down

"Ugghhh" I grunt as all his weight falls onto me "looks like I got you too" I wink and we lay like that for a little while.

He stares into my eyes and licks his lips. I try to look away but I cant. It's like he has my in some sort of trance.

The gap between us closes and his lips are on mine.

I stay frozen. My eyes wide in shock. But slowly I feel myself melting into him. My eyes flutter shut and I soak in this moment.

The moment I have been waiting forever for.

He pulls away and stares down at me for a couple seconds, as I rest my hand against his cheek.

"This can't happen" he breathes out, standing up.

I'm left again. Completely alone.

Covered in head to toe with eggs, flour, icing, sugar and hurt.
