Dangerous Love

Chapter 4

Matteo

I watch her just sit in the chair and look up at the ceiling, she's been like this for 15 minutes now.

I sigh and stand up walking infront of her, she looks at me, and raises her eyebrow, this just makes me smirk.

"Can I help you." Is the first thing she says, I smile, "No, but I can help you." I say, sticking my hand out.

"You want something to eat?" I ask and she hurries and grabs my hand, I chuckle and lead her to the kitchen.

"What do you want to eat?" I ask, she put her hand on her chin like she's think, but j can tell she already knows.

"We'll we can eat here for appetizer, but order some chick-Fil-a off of door dash, like my father says make his pockets hurt." She says.

She lets go of my hand and walks to the fridge going through it, she pulls out some strawberries.

"Where's your sugar, and your phone." She says looking at me, I get up and head to the cabinet.

"Grab a bowl too." She says, picking up the strawberries and putting them under the sink water washing them off.

I set everything on the counter, including my phone, "Thank you." She says grabbing my phone first.

She goes to door dash and starts order chick-Fil-a, I sit back down at the counter and watch her.

After she's done she puts the phone done and grabs the bowl and strawberries, she puts the strawberries in a bowl.

She then puts water in the bowl, "Get another bowl." She says, I do as she asks and watch her.

She pours sugar into the other bowl, and looks at me, and then goes to the fridge, "Grab one more bowl." She says.

She grabs another container of strawberries and opens them she washes them off then cuts the leafs off.

Along with the white parts, she cleans them agian and puts them in the bowl then pours sugar on them.

She puts it back in the fridge then looks at me, "Grab a bowl." She says grabbing one of the bowls and walking out.

I listen and grab a bowl following her, "Where's your remote?" She questions and sits on the couch.

I grab the remote and sit beside her, she turns it on and starts searching through it, as she does so she eats.

But the way she does it is she grabs a strawberry, cover it in sugar then eats it, she glances at me, and sighs.

"You want one?" She asks with one infornt of me, I grab it and look at it, "Just eat it." She says.

I bite it and chew, "It's good." I say and she nodded with a smile, "I know." She says and continues eating.

When she's done she gets up and walks to put her plate up, after she washes it, I told her she didn't have too but she insisted.

I heard the door bell go off, "I'll get it." I say standing up, she looks and me, "I mean I wasn't gonna get it." She says.

I look at her and shake my head opening the door seeing my cousin on my dad's side, I roll my eyes.

I love my cousin, I do but he's extra, all the time, "Primo te he extrañado mucho!" He exclaimed and I sigh.
(Cousin I've missed you a lot)

"¿Qué es?" I say and puts a hand his heart appalled, "How dare you assume." He says and I roll my eyes.
(What is it?)

He walks past me and into the kitchen, he spots Parrish in the kitchen and stops, "¿Quien es esta belleza en tu cocina primo?" He questions.
(Who's this beauty in your kitchen cousin?)

"No es asunto tuyo." He say and he huffs at this, "Parrish this is my cousin Deablo." I say
(None of your buisness.)

He walks over to her and grabs her hand, "It's nice to meet you." He say kissing her hand.

"Nice to meet you too." She says and I walk over to them and slap the back of his head, and he grabs it.

"Why are you here?" I ask and he looks at me, "Escuché sobre el tiroteo, solo vine a ver cómo estabas." He says.
(I heard about the shoot out I just came to check on you.)

"Gracias primo estoy bien." I say and he nods, "Well I'll see you around." He says I nod, he winks at Parrish and runs out.
(Thank you I'm fine.)

"I took spanish 2 you know, I understood some of that." She says and goes to the fridge, and takes her other strawberries out.

But they were glazed over and had juice all over them, "Do you have any plastic sliver wear?" She asks.

I nodded and walk to the drawer and grabbed it washing it out, I hand it to her and she walks back to the living room.

All while eating her strawberries, I shake my head at this and follow close behind her, o the living room.

She sits down and starts dancing in her seat, I chuckle silently at this as she keeps eating her strawberries.

Once she finishes she walks to the the kitchen and washes her dishes, and comes back and stands infornt of me.

"I'm ready to go home now." She says, I look at her like she's go 2 heads, "It's too dangerous." I say.

She rolls her eyes, "I'm fine, no one's looking for me." She says and I look at her and sigh.

"Just stay here for the night just for safe precautions?" I ask and she looked at me then sighs, "Fine." She says.

"Show me to my room?" She ask and I nod, "Come on." I say motioning for her to follow me.

"My rooms down the hall if you need me." I say and she nods and walks into the room, closing the door.

I sigh and walk to my room, this is actually just a safe house, and I wanted her to be safe.

I was actually being truthful when I said this wasn't my enemy, I undress, and grab some clothes to shower in.

Before I get in the shower there's a knock at my door, I walk over and open it seeing Parrish standing there.

"Can you give me a shirt and some boxers?" She ask and I nod handing her my shirt and boxers.

She thanks me and walks back down the hall, I grab another shirt and boxers, and walk to bathroom.

I sigh and run my hands through my hair, I stay in for 20 minutes before getting out and walking into my room.

I lay down on my bed and just sit there, I haven't been to sleep in a while actually, it really didn't feel different to me.

Pretty soon it was thundering and lightning, and after 15 minutes or so there was another knock on my door.

I look on my night stand and see it's 12 going on 1 in the morning, I walk over to the door and open it.

Parrish looks up at me, "I'm scared of thunder." She says walking past me and laying in my bed.

I chuckle at this and walk over laying with her, "I would really like it if we could cuddle." She says.

I look over at her and open my arms, she scoots over and cuddles with me, as I wrap my arms around her.

Soon I hear her breathe even out, and I can tell she's asleep, and my body decided to follow along with her.
