Scarlet POV

"Hey, what happened?"

I sat on the couch rested my leg on it while massaging the sore muscle gently.

"You said you won't break my legs yesterday but it breaks now." I pouted, rested on the couch. Instead of feeling bad for me, he chuckled.

"It's not funny, Miguel," I complained in pain.

"Yeah, it's not funny but you are funny Caramel." He walked to my side, finding a place next to me.

"You need my help?" He asked.

"How? Do you have some magic that can heal my legs?" I faked my amused face.

"Hmm, sort of and I ensure that you will get better." He walked to where I rested my legs and lifted it before he sat at the same spot. He then placed my legs on his lap.

"Wait, what are you doing?" I blushed with his action but I tried to shield it.

"Easy there, Caramel. I won't break it, don't worry." He winked.

"You already did." I scowled but in a joking way. He seems to enjoy the situation.

Slowly, he massaged the muscle of my legs. The comfort that sent by him made me lay my head at the sidearm of the couch. I let him massaged my painful and sore muscle while I closed my eyes in comfort.

"How it is?" He asked after a while.

I tried to lift my legs and amazingly it felt better, much better. I grinned, acknowledged his effort.

"Good job, boy, good job." I patted his shoulder, acting like an old woman.

"No reward for this?" I could sense his naughty voice, the cheeky smile on his lips proved it.

"Unfortunately, nope. This is your redemption since you break my legs, I mean almost." I just aggregated the fact.

"And you seem to love it yesterday." He mocked with his hands rested behind his head, rested on the couch.

"Enough of that. What do you want to eat today? Anything that you're craving for?" I stood away from the couch and admiring with his magic hands.

"I have one but I don't think I can eat it now. It's not the time yet, I assumed."

"What is that? Just tell me. I will get it ready."

"Really?" He stood up. My mind started to register what was wrong with him.

"Yeah, that's my job, no? I will take care of it. Just name it. Come on, before I change my mind. "

"But this one is a bit different." He stopped in front of me. I have to lift my head up to find his eyes.

"Ah-ha, I saw that sneaky eyes. Don't ever try," I warned as I sensed the hidden meaning behind the food that he wanted. He chuckled as I caught him.

"I crave for you, Caramel." He almost kills me with his naughty confession. A big smile appeared on his face, which was more like a seductive smile.

"Oh, you want something with caramel. How about coffee caramel or caramel cake?" I'm aware of the meaning but I pretended to play innocent.

"No, I want this caramel but I don't think it's ready for me now." He squished my face forcefully making my lips form an 'O' shape.

I held his arms that squished on my face and wriggle from his grip.

"This caramel is not available right now, I'm occupied and I need to work."
