Chapter 45

The very next day, you woke up with the sunlight peeking sneakily through the curtains in your room. You also felt sneaky hands wrapping around your waist, you turned to see Haruka sleeping peacefully beside you.

A smile formed on your lips as you lazily looked at the time in your phone. It was around noon, turning twelve any minute now.

You placed back your phone on the nightstand table and turned your front-view to Haruka's adorable sleeping figure.

Pinching his nose bridge, you saw his expression stiffen causing his eyebrows to arch down quickly and it made you softly burst out small giggles because he just looked like a cute little mochi.

You placed your palms on his cheeks, mentally appreciating and praising his angelic facial features in your thoughts. "Its been awhile since I've seen him up close like this... his handsome face will never change. Ever-"

"S-Squid?.." Haruka rubbed his eyes as his deep voice squeaked, seeing a blurry vision of you. Your face blushes as he caught you placing your palms on his cheeks.

You hid your embarrassment with a bright, morning smile. "Good morning, water-addict..!" you softly say while staring at his ocean-like orbs.

He replied to you with a belwildered expression, "Something's off with you today, squid.." he says as his words trailed off.

You trembled at his words. "W-What" you scratched your nape at his short sudden conclusion. "What do you even mean? Can't I just get a 'good-morning-to-you-too'?"

Haruka looked like he was deep in thought, its driving your crazy so early in the morning. He places a finger om his chin, "You're so cheerful and soft in today's morning, its so unnatural."

His words hit you like a cart of bricks, you're getting dizzy because of him. "Unnatural?! Seriously?!"

You not-hesitatingly slapped his shoulder and punched his stomach aggressively. "You idiot!" you yell while he is teasing you more and more.

He laughs between your painful actions towards him. "Now, this is the kind of squid I naturally see in the morning!" he said, with so much obvious-sarcasm overflowing towards you.

"I can't believe you! Honestly! Can't you be thankful I'm trying to become more better for you?" you snapped back with a hint of a badass look, you pouted your lips at him.

He bursted into laughter at you while playfully nuzzling his nose on your messy hair. "You don't need to be better for me, squid. I love you just the way you are." he sweetly smile while looking at you.

You felt your cheeks doing its thing again and this time, with a combination of goosebumps on your skin! He is so corny but its making your heart flutter so easily and effortlessly.

"His charming points is on key today, eh?"

He brings you back to reality as he hops out of bed and start carrying you on his veiny arms. "W-What do you think you are doing, mister?!-"

"Carrying you downstairs?" he simply says as he brings you downstairs, into the living room, dropping you on the large and comfy couch. "Do you need a blanket or a pillow? Is your leg doing well now?"

You threw a pillow at him as you can't help but blush more continously as he is being so sweet, caring and gentle to you today. "I'll take that as a no-"

"I need to brush my teeth." you muttered.

He swiftly turns his back. "What?"

You dramatically sighed. "I said, I need to brush my teeth-!!"

"You need me?" he smiles. "Aw, shucks. Don't worry, I need myself too!" and he walks into the kitchen, guessing he is going to cook for brunch.

Right now, you can't even feel your cheeks anymore. Its like it had burned way too much that is just turned completely and drastically invisible. It faded just like that.

His corny pick-up lines is making you throw up rainbows and sparkles, for real.

"You almost burned the house down!! You twerp!!" you slapped his shoulder, scolding him like his mother- just as what he deserves.

Haruka sweatdrops while scratching the back of his nape. "I-I was only trying to bake an omelette for you, squid." he sheepishly smiled at you, trying his best to convince you that it was all an accident.

You rolled your orbs at him and stood up by yourself, shocked that you can stand and walk now- you quickly made your way into the kitchen.

"H-Hey squid! Your leg!-"

"You know, water-addict.. I think you need me more." you flipped your hair at your back while rolling your eyes once more at him. A broken, burned house is what the least things you never want to happen in your life.

Putting your apron on, you grabbed all your hair together to tie your hair, so that your straight locks won't distract you from cooking.

You looked for your hair tie around the kitchen as it wasn't found on your wrist, you swore that it was just hanging on your wrist a second ago.

"Where the hell is it?--"

"Here you go, miss 'i-need-you-more'." Haruka smirks as he lends you a small, black hairtie on his pale hands. The atmosphere turned quiet, you took a brief pause whether you should take it or not.

"No thanks." you quickly replied a second after, while using a random spoon near you as a tie for your hair- surprisingly, it worked.

The male beside you was shock about your smart-ass skills, he just placed the hairtie on the counter, hands in his pockets and quickly left the exterior without a sign or a single trace.

You mentally facepalmed as you stare at the hairtie in irritation. "If he just left it like that earlier then I woudn't have to make myself think of another way to tie my hair! Stupid water-addict!"

Groaning annoyingly in disbelief, you just wore the hairtie on your wrist and started baking for brunch. You heaved a sigh, "What an unusual day."
