Chapter 23

Both manbun and I flew out of the damn bed and came face to face with the floor, on opposite sides.

"Really? I left like ten minutes ago and you're getting it on? Aren't you tired after today?" I heard Joe say from behind me. I didn't know whether to remain on the floor or get up and choke him to death.

Unlike me, manbun didn't seem too embarrassed because he started laughing his ass off. I think I'm going to sleep on the floor.

I heard him get off the floor and come right behind me, "You alright?"

"Fine." I grumbled, but it came out muffled because of the carpet. Both men laughed before I felt hands being placed under my armpits and pulling me up, making me stand on my own feet. I turned around and was faced with a grinning manbun, and a laughing Joe right behind him.

I deadpanned and looked at Joe, "What do you want?"

He smiled, "Sleeping pills. Your boyfriend here is an insomniac and I can't sleep. I thought of borrowing a pill or two." He of course had to smirk at the boyfriend part. Even manbun was smirking, for fuck's sake!

"Get them and go then. I'm going to sleep." I said and got in the bed without another word. I pulled the covers all the way up, not wanting to see them nor for them to look at me. Why was I the only one uncomfortable in this situation?

I heard both boys chuckle deeply before movement around the room was heard.

"Thanks."

"No problem."

"Goodnight mate."

"Night."

I heard the door open and close before I felt manbun get back in bed and under the covers. My back was to him, and I wouldn't let myself turn around this time, even if he told me to. Instead of doing that, he got impossibly close. He then wrapped his arm around my waist, and pulled me even closer.

"Night honeypie." He whispered before pecking my head and snuggling his face into the back of my neck.

I had this weird feeling again. One that I've come to hate but love at the same time.

Fucking butterflies.

I heard shuffling around before I could even open my eyes. I could feel the sunlight on my skin as I cracked my lids open just barely, enough for me to see what was going on. Manbun was placing what sounded like cutlery on the table that was outside on the balcony. What is he doing?

I groaned slightly as I propped myself on my elbows and stared at his ass through the glass door. He was bent a little, making it pop, and I couldn't help smirking. This man had a better ass than me.

My gaze didn't falter when he got up and walked back in, noticing me in the process, "Were you staring at my cake? You like it, don't you?" He asked with a grin and moved to face me.

I smiled, "You have a nice ass, I'll give you that." I complimented and he laughed.

"Get your lazy ass up and go there." He pointed to the table outside, "I need to bring a couple more things, I'll be back in a second." He said over his shoulder as he walked out of the room.
