While cooking the food- no scratch that, the proper term is grilling the meat. He did all the efforts while I'm busy finding a perfect angle for my pictures. Though, I took some candid shots of Duke grilling the meat while wearing his polo. Who would have thought that I would have the honor to see a hot man grilling two pieces of meat?
Yes, this night is going crazy.
While busy posting my pictures in my instagram, I looked at Duke. His back facing me is so broad and an effortless picture perfect scene.
Admiring him is too easy...
I raised my cellphone to find a perfect angle, my angled eyebrow rose. There's no perfect angle for him, every angle still came up as a good shot.
I swallowed a lump on my throat for ideas are flocking inside my mind. Some are just too erotic to mention.
I called out his attention,"Duke". At that moment when he moved his head and the side view of his face appeared in the screen of my phone, I took his picture. The shattering sound reached into our ears.
He's not smiling, he's just the normal him, no emotions added. It's a good shot though.
After that, he got back into facing the grill."So, you're a photo stealer now?", he said with humor, I bet that a goofy smirk is lurking in his thick reddish lips at the moment.
I frowned at how cocky he could be. "There comes the over flowing confidence, dripping in the side of the glass", I answered his humorous accusation. Amused by how poetic my answer was, he chuckled.
"Roses are red, violets are blue, I'm handsome and you saw it too", he also recited. It earned a small smile from me, effortlessly branding how handsome he is in a poetic way, isn't it?
"Face is nothing if lurking in the shadows of your smile is an angel with horns", I stated while looking at his back.
It took seconds of deep silence with only the wind's gushing can be heard. The insects that are hiding in the tall trees around us are the only noise I can hear.
"What do you mean?", he asked me. Clueless with what I mean, he turned around and squinted his chrysocolla-colored eyes.
It made me chuckle a little bit. "You're an asshole", I told him bluntly while looking away from him.
I love his eyes but the overwhelming feeling it gives is a different story. I can't stand the aura it gives off. It's making me conscious of my every move. Whenever he looked at me in the eyes and we locked out sight into each other, I can't help but to fall for it's enchantment and I swear, it's no good for me.
"You've been very savage ever since", I took a glance at him and saw how he pouted before getting back at what he was doing in the grill.
My forehead creased. Sure, he looks handsome but looking at him now? He just look like a bulldog trying hard to be adorable.
I sighed and hid my phone in my bag. I've been waiting for a couple of minutes here and the meat is not yet cooked.
I walked toward Duke's side and looked at the grill. "How many years should I wait for that meat to be served, Duke?", I asked.
"It won't take years. I'll just serve this and we're done, alright?", I nodded at what he said.
"Finally!", I exclaimed and rolled my eyes at Duke.
I got back in my seat and eyed Duke in what he's doing. He might put a love potion in my food but in the back of my mind, a voice told me that I'm just exaggerating things.
At first he prepared the meat, put it in the table. Filled my goblet glass with water and the flute glass with champagne.
He knew the proper choice of glass huh?
