When I wake up I see that I'm trapped in Lucas's embrace with my back against his chest, and I don't even mind. I look under the sheets to see that we're still both naked and I grab my phone from the night stand to check the time. It's already 4pm and I'm starving. I feel Lucas place a kiss on my shoulder and I smile.
"Hey" He says and my smile widens and I turn around to face him
"Hey" I respond kissing him on the corner of his mouth
"How do you feel? Did I hurt you? Did you have the flashbacks?" He asks with a small frown and concern in his voice
"I'm okay, you didn't hurt me and no I didn't. I told you that it's different with you" I say to him and he smiles
"I'm glad you're okay" He says pulling my body closer to his and my stomach growls
"I'm hungry" I say sheepishly
"I know, I heard" Lucas says with a chuckle and I roll my eyes playfully
"What do you want to eat?" He asks
"There's still a bunch of pizza in the kitchen" I suggest
"Nope, beside you had pizza for breakfast" Lucas says unwrapping his arms from my body making me whine
"We are going to go to the supermarket and we are getting you some proper food and then I'm going to cook you dinner" Lucas says getting up from the bed and I watch him intently as he walks in all his naked glory
"Alright" I say still watching him as he puts his grey joggers on and then his white t-shirt.
"Well are you going to put some clothes on? Or do you plan on walking around naked, not that I would mind" Lucas says looking at me with a smirk and I throw a pillow at him.
"Wait for me downstairs while I change" I say to him
"Why, I've already seen you naked" He says with a smile
"I know, but now it's different" I say hugging the sheets closer to me. Now it was different because we weren't making out or having sex, now he wasn't lost in the moment so he could really see my body now. He would see all its imperfections, like the stretch marks I've been working my whole life to cover up. And maybe if he looked closely enough, he could see the damage that Hunter had done, how ugly he left me feeling. The thought of Lucas seeing that saddens me and I feel tears pool at my eyes.
Lucas steps closer to me and takes a seat on the bed next to me.
"But you are so beautiful Yara, you don't have to hide anything from me" Lucas says taking my hands in his
"Just go down stairs Lucas, I'll be done in a few minutes" I say to him placing a kiss on the palm of his hand
"Okay" He says with a sigh getting up, just as he is about to go the stairs he says "You are beautiful Yara-Idah Valentine" then he's gone
"Fuck!" I say under my breath, I just hate the effect that he has on me.
I get up from my bed and head to my closet wear I grab a black cotton maxi dress with short sleeves, and I wear it with a pair of black combat boots. I leave my hair down and a coat my lips with a layer of bubblegum flavored lip gloss. I grab my car keys from the drawer of my night stand and I rush down the stairs
"I'm driving" I say to Lucas with a childish grin
"No you're not" Lucas says getting up from the sofa and walking towards me
"Yes I am" I say holding my car keys up at him
"Yara, I want to live to see another day, and that won't happen with you at the wheel" Lucas says putting his hand on the small of my back and leading me to the door
