His Sunflower

20. Whipped Cream Romance

Elara stirred hearing some sounds, she woke up to the breaking of glass. Slipping on her furry slippers, she found herself still in Archer's shirt and blushed furiously. She had some serious respect for him, he did not even peek at her body. She wanted to give herself to him, but he refused. She loved how he took care of her and she also knew, she had fallen for him. She had fallen in love with him.

 Shaking her thoughts away, she pulled on a pair of sweat pants before proceeding to the door of her bedroom. She climbed down to the ground floor in the kitchen to see her mom and dad baking.

" Hey honey! Did you sleep well?" Her dad asked fixing her a plate of brownies. She rubbed her eyes before picking up a brownie and enjoying it.

" Yes, but how did I get home?" She asked in confusion.

" Your boyfriend got you home. You should have seen the look on his face, totally whipped for you." Her mom said and Elara choked on her brownie, reaching for the glass of water her dad held. 

" Okay, topic change, why are you two baking together?" Elara asked squinting her eyes and scrunching her nose.

" Elara, we need to tell you something." Her mother said in an alerting voice and Elara immediately turned to her mom as she continued," We'll have to go El, your dad has a trip to England and I have to be in the Maldives for an important photo shoot. "

" When are you going?" Elara asked in a pained voice. She had to admit, she loved the time she had spent with her parents and it would hurt to see them vanish again.

" Your dad has a flight to catch in seven hours and I'll be gone before you would wake up in the morn tomorrow." She explained and Elara nodded, accepting the disappointment.

" Come on guys, don't kill the vibe, let's do dinner together!" Her mother cheered her up by sending her to her room and getting her ready. 

That night, they visited her favorite restaurant and enjoyed their time together with delicious dinner. Later, they even drove to the countryside just to have Elara's favorite cotton-candy icecream.

Her parents were right, they had left even before she had woken up. She sighed and twirled her pencil looking at the last question on her test. It was calculus. She had somehow finished her test. Then she rushed to her literature class and took a seat in the second last bench, very next to Jackson, yes the same guy who had been chasing her for weeks now!

She sighed and sulked in her seat, but her mood lightened when she saw Jasper entering the class too, she waved to him and asked him to sit on her right.

Mrs. Tucker had not arrived yet. The class was a cacophonical mess and Elara could feel a headache ascending from the base of her neck to her head.

" Hey hotness, you look sexy in red." Jackson whispered pulling his chair closer to hers and she ushing her chair away from him. If Archer knew, this man would be resting in peace, forever.

" I'm not interested in you, get it ?" Elara spoke loudly gaining attention from Jasper. He scrunched his nose and listened further.

" I wonder what that smart mouth of yours can do." Jackson spoke and came so close, Elara could feel his breath on her skin and she quickly brought her hands forward to make some distance in between them. Jasper clenched his jaw in anger and got up from his seat and in one swift moment of his fist, Jackson was on the ground with his bloody hands on his nose and wincing in pain. He got up quickly and tried to punch Jasper, but he was too hurt to hurt him. 

" What in the world is- Oh my god! Jackson, Jasper, and Elara, principal's office,NOW!" Mrs. Tucked shouted and leaded the three of them to the principal's office. 

While Elara and Jasper sat in the daggering gaze of the principal, Jackson was getting his nose fixed. It had been two hours sitting in the principal's office while everybody was attending their last period.

" Can we go now, sir?" Elara asked irritated. Jasper looked at her, they both were bored sitting and doing nothing.

" Miss Curtis, what were exactly the circumstances under which, your friend here had to break Mr. Isahai's nose?" He asked for the millionth time. Elara held her head in irritation as her voice raised," Sir with all due respect, we both have answered your stupid question a thousand times. Jackson Isahai needs to stay within his limits, And my friend here, just tried to show him his limits."

" I suggest you keep your words sophisticated and your tone gentle, or you may land yourself a bad word for your scholarship." He said in a passive-aggressive voice and it shunned Elara.

" You may leave my office now. Get out, you both." He spat without sparing them a glance, looking at his laptop, what he had been doing for the past two hours. By the time they were out of the principal's hell, the hallways had emptied and no one was wandering about.

Ellara made her way home after thanking Jasper a thousand times. Having nothing to do, she decided to bake her favorite brownie. She pulled out all the ingredients when she opened the fridge to take out the eggs, she heard someone rang the bell.

Wondering who could be it, she slipped off her apron making her way and opening the door. She was not a bit surprised to see Archer. He smiled at her, and it was such a turn on for her..

She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him in for a hungry kiss. She pulled him inside while he pushed her against the wall, caging her and kissing her with the same intensity.

He pulled away giggling," Someone seems excited."

Elara blushed and hid her face in the crook of his neck and whispered out an apology.

" Here, let me take your coat." She said and pulled off his coat, hooking it by the stand near the door.

" Interested in brownies?" She asked and he nodded taking a seat in the nook of her kitchen and keeping his chin in her hands and looking at her like she was a piece of candy. He was really tempted to throw her over his shoulders and do things to her. The shorts she wore exposed her skin, making him think of running over his tongue on it. Her top had ridden up as she bent down to pick the whisk. 

" Why do you put whipped cream in your brownie?" He asked her, getting up from his seat and standing right behind her. He could see her hairs covering her neck, which he swept off to the other side and snaked his arms around her waist. She gasped and leaned more into him. The ladle having a dollop of whipped cream fell from her hand, making it fall of the counter and all over her exposed neck. His grip on her waist tightened as he lifted her off the ground, making her sit on the kitchen counter. The packet of chocolate fell off it and they both giggled. Archer looked at her. Her breath was a mess. He dipped his head lower licking the whipped cream on her neck. She let out a frustated moan and gripped his hairs and pulled him up. She looked at him before taking his lips as she reached the bottom of his sweatshirt. He broke the kiss and a shiver ran down his spine when her fingers graced with his lower stomach. His hand left her waist and held hers, stopping her hand.

" Don't tease me Sunflower." He growled in her ears and her body reacted to his voice as she shivered, and it wasn't because of the cold.

" Who said I was teasing? " She whispered against his chest. He pulled her up, his lips touching his," I want you Archer, I want you so much!" 

" Are you sure?" He asked heavily, his eyes dripping with desire. She slammed her lips on his. He wrapped his hands around her waist, carrying her upstairs.
