Green Hearts

Chapter 15

I woke up

I won't say where I woke up cause I don't want to give satisfaction to someone out there the chance to say "I knew this was just another cheesy story"

So I woke up, smiling like half of the dumb Rabbids trying to capture the moon. I have always been a morning person but today I am up on happy clouds

I slip my feet out of bed quietly and pad across the room till I get to the bathroom

I look like shit

I fold up my hair into a very messy and unattractive bun before brushing my teeth and washing my face. Great! Now I'm set to take over the world

I walk out into the hallway and down all the way into the living room with no plans on what I'm doing up but all that changes the minute I sight it

It stood there in the dim morning light, bathed in a beautiful ray of sunshine while it glimmered of all untold beauty. I'd meaning to visit it all week but I never got round to it

But not anymore, I say to myself as I skip over to the home theater system set. The beauty of what this thing could do with music. My insides are already fluttering in excitement as I connect my phone to it

My hand immediately swipes to the playlist that I know I can play without having to reach for my phone every three minutes to switch out unwanted songs

My K-pop playlist! Blah blah bladidaaaaa. I can feel the hate and eww's emanating from some people in the universe and decide to ignore. Their music beats are sick!

My music booms out of the speakers and I almost go deaf. Someone would think I'm hosting a Korean early morning get together. Ha!

I blabble lyrics that I have no idea what they mean alongside Ateez in their new-stolen-my-heart-song, Wave

Since I'm in a good mood, I decide to make use of it and weird dance into the kitchen where I try to experiment into cooking 'Egg rice'. I saw that the other day on the internet. Good luck to this kitchen

After discovering that he actually has enough egg for me to conduct my food network experiment, I dance around the kitchen while preparing the ingredients from my memory. Hope I'm not missing anything though

I tip in the egg mixture after letting the rice toast for a bit of time and stare longingly at the pot while allowing the egg to thicken

Damn, I'm hungry

"Why are you in my shirt?" his voice is gruff from waking up and in my head. I feel his cool lips against my neck and I bite my lip to resist the moan that threatens to embarrass me

I subtly cock my head to the side to give him a better access as my back presses hard against his chest. He laughs lightly but the rumbling resonates in my body and makes goosebumps stand out on my skin

"Your pot's still on fire" he kisses behind my ear and then in my hair, effectively distracting my thoughts before my brain actually makes sense of what he says

Fucking son of an ass cracker

"Shit!" I exclaim and jump away from him and towards my pot. I pull on mittens, grab the pot off of the fire and transfer it to another burner that has no fire on then I switch off the gas cooker

I stir the rice vigorously to break the egg into chunks and spin to face a chuckling Jace. I poke him and push him away from me

"You were distracting me" I defend myself as I dish the rice into two bowls before scattering over the spring onion I had formerly chopped on the top of the food

"I was distracting you? You're the one walking around in my shirt that hardly covers your thighs" he smirks at me then suddenly frowns and turns towards the living room and looking at me again

"What monstrosity are you making my ears go through?" He groans and hops on a kitchen stool, sitting opposite from me across the island

I roll my eyes and blabble some more lyrics to his hearing. Mamamoo's Hip is playing at the moment "You're also a K-pop hater" I state

"No. I'm a hater of things I don't understand. Do you even know what they're saying?" He leans back in his seat and stares at me through narrow slits of his eyes

"It doesn't matter. I'm listening to every other thing than the language" I roll my eyes again. I grab cans of drinks out the fridge and place them on the island

He raises his hands in surrender "So what new trial and error is this that you're subjecting my taste buds to?" He glances at the plate I've placed in his front

"Something copied off the internet. You had better appreciate my food making skills before I take it away" I glare subtly him

His smile is lazy and beautiful as he takes my hand in his across the island and places a small kiss to my knuckles. And yes, my insides melt just a little bit more since he walked into the room in just sweats

"Now please, stop playing whatever it is you're playing" he state. And we're back to the no-longer-sweet Jace. Yippee

I give him a pointed look before walking into the living room to give he speakers, and probably his neighbours' ears, a rest

When I turn back to the table, he's already began eating and gives me a small thumbs up amidst his grovelling. I do a little victory dance before eating from my own plate

"Are you staying the weekend?" He half glances at me as he speaks quietly. He shoves his plate between us and my immediate glare makes him pick up the plate to the sink

"Do you want me to?" I tease. Of course I know he's fidgeting about asking me that cause of the last time we fought right here in his living almost cause of that

"Is that even a question?" He rolls his eyes and stands facing me with his arms folded across his naked chest

I laugh "I intend to stay today but I have an assignment too work on tomorrow" I say, my mind flipping to the fact that I haven't done most of the work on the project. Looks like another sleepless Sunday to me

"Works for me. Let's binge watch something. How about Transformers?" he suggests thoughtful and I throw an irritated glance his way

"Dude no. Fast and furious" I opt and dumb my plate in the sink. He's going to wash that when he's ready. I paddle back to my seat

"It's my house and I say Transformers" he has a smug look on his face and smirks triumphantly

"Don't play that card. What are you? Ten?" I laugh when he pouts adorably "I'm speaking last and I say Fast and furious" I turn to leave the kitchen so that he doesn't input any say

I feel his hand grab my arm and pull me back towards his body

"I'm not listening. La la la la la..." I sing loudly and he scrunches up his face at how loud my voice is

"You have something thing here" he gestures calmly to the side of my mouth

"Oh thanks. Here?" I wipe off the side of my mouth but he shakes his head

"Here" his hand lifts my chin lightly as his finger swabs across my lips before he replaces it with his own

It doesn't take a split second for me to respond to his kisses and I'm already a tangled mess in his arms

His hand still holds my chin up and his mouth is moving like a soft chicken feather on mine and I pull at his soft curls with my fingers

He moans lightly in my mouth and my knees buckle at the animal but strangely seductive sound. His hands go behind my thighs and lifts me to wrap my legs around his torso

He places me gently on the counter without having to break the contact between us

We're both a panting mess when we pull away and he leans his head on mine, smiling breathlessly at my lack of words after that

"Now, I'm speaking last and it's Transformers" he smirks when he pulls away from me and throws me a wink before leaving me in the kitchen

What just happened?

That boy is the spawn of true evil!
