Suddenly A Kitten

Chapter 20

I was ashamed to admit I had cried myself to sleep that night in Roman's arms.

He had held me tightly - but never said a word.

I wasn't even entirely sure why I was crying, all I knew now was that I was beyond embarrassed.

I brushed my teeth angrily and tiptoed past the bed where Roman was still sound asleep. He was now hugging a pillow tightly now instead of me.

Nothing like being up at eight o'clock on a Saturday morning.

I stomped through the kitchen and opened the fridge loudly.

"Do you mind?" I blinked and turned seeing Carrots behind me.

"What's wrong bird? I'm getting some chocolate milk." Nothing gets between me and my milk.

"I was trying to sleep Sora!" I put a hand on my hip and gazed at Carrots.

"If one of my boys isn't sleeping in here, I see no reason to care. They had a hard night so I'm making them breakfast."

I paused.

"Speaking of last night, where were you?"

Carrots clenched his fists.

"Roman locked me in the closet,"

I snickered grabbing the waffle iron.

I can't believe he really did that haha.

Carrots crossed his arms and leaned on the counter as I began making the batter. As I whisked batter flew everywhere making me pause.

As some splashed on my neck I heard Carrots move closer from behind me. Paying him no attention I finished making the batter.

A tongue running up my neck made me screech.

I clutched my shoulder and neck stumbling backwards as Carrots licked his lips.

"What. The. Hell?!" I shouted.

Carrots blinked.

"Did I do something wrong? I saw it in a movie."

I blushed still moving back. What the fuck is this parrot watching?!

"Get out of my kitchen!" Seeing that I was not someone to argue with at the moment Carrots did a tactical retreat.

I sighed loudly as the doorbell rang and trudged over annoyed.

"Yes what the hell do you- Chris?" I stared at my ex shocked.

As his shock slowly dissipated he leaned on the door frame and smiled running his eyes up and down me with appreciation.

I was wearing a tank top and leggings, but now I felt naked.

I grabbed one of Roman's jackets and tugged it on glaring at him.

"Well, well, well, Sora, what are you doing here?" As he leered at me footsteps behind me made my head turn.

Roman frowned.

"What are you doing here Chris?"

Chris smiled and stepped inside the apartment making me tense.

"I was here to offer you your old job back, and then I noticed Sora here."

Roman raised an eyebrow.

"You two know each other?" I winced.

"Roman, Chris is my ex." I explained softly.

Chris smiled and placed a hand on my shoulder making me freeze.
