How the hell did Luke know that?

Right now, I was blushing profusely from the embarrassment, I'm going to have a talk with him later.

"You know cupcake, I don't think your little brother gave a bad idea. How about we do just what he said ?" Jace asked in a hopeful tone while wiggling his eyebrows.

Despite his adorable morning face, he still got a playful slap.

"I'm outta here asshat." I said while detangling myself from his hold.

"Noooo. Where are you going ?" He tried gripping my arm to hold me back, but I was too fast.

I looked back at him to see an adorable pout on his face. He really is a man baby, but my man baby.

"I'm just going to take a shower. "

"Can I-"

"No."

"But-"

"Nope."

"Okay fine. But you're not taking a shower with this freezing water. You and Luke are coming to mine." He stated while following me to the bathroom.

While I started brushing my teeth, he hugged me from behind and sniffed me. 

So I was not wrong the first time he did that to me! At least now I'm sure he's just a weirdo, not a werewolf.

Or is he ?

"Okay cupcake we're leaving, and we're leaving now because you kinda stink."

An expression of shock appeared on face. "No I do not stink sir!"

"Um yeah, you do. So hurry, the faster you take this shower, the better it is."

"It's fine. I can just take it here you know." I said in a small embarrassed tone.

"I'm not really giving you the choice here baby, let's go."

Not wanting to have an argument this morning, I simply packed a change of clothes and some other necessities and left my room to alert Luke to do the same.

"Wait so I'm not going to have a cold shower today ?" He asked in an excited and cheerful voice.

"Nope, not today. Now get out, Jace is waiting for us in the car."

Seeing him this happy about something I could've given him shattered my heart. I have to work harder to make sure he's comfortable.

On the way to his house, I was thinking about yesterday's events. 

Don't ask me why I'm always thinking about things during car rides.

It was hard to believe that we really admitted our feeling to each others. I couldn't be happier than that, but I was just wondering where did that put us now?

My thoughts were interrupted with a certain hand on my thigh and a voice saying we've arrived.

Dang, I was zoned out for a hot minute.

The only time I saw Jace's house was at that party he threw, but now that I can see it clearly and in the daylight, it was even more beautiful then I remembered.

"Come on the Jacksons, we have reached our final destination."

When we got in, I tried taking in my surroundings.

 Everything was so organized, chic and beautiful, with a mix of whites and grays, something that I failed to see during the party.

 The only thing that was missing was this sense of homey-ness you get when you enter a house. But despite that, it was perfect.
