Chapter 31 - Sharing the Bed
A/N: Dedicated to ellacabahug for the extremely adorable chapter at the side! ^_^
..............................................................................................................................
Kristina irritatingly took the futon out of the closet and threw it on the floor. Daniel kept pressing the remote control endlessly, hoping to find something interesting.His fiancee began muttering a few words under her breath upon pulling the heavy futon upstairs.
He turned the television off knowing that there was nothing good on, and sighed before taking the plain-white futon off Kristina's hands. He looked at her with a neutral expression and advanced to her room, where he placed the futon on the floor lazily.
She took a few blankets out of her dressing drawer and threw them at his face. She hissed and sat on her bed, wearing a really pissed off face. "Don't you dare do anything stupid. I'll kill you before you get to see the light of day again."
Daniel sighed and shrugged his shoulders. "I'm so scared."
"You're not allowed to speak."
"Yeah I am."
"Who says?" she arched a brow at him. He folded his arms and eyed her amusingly while his lips curled up into a smirk.
"Me. Because, if you won't let me talk the whole time I'm here, I'm not cooking dinner for you."
"What?!"
He snorted and felt triumphant with his set of words. Indeed, using food against this girl was pretty useful and effective. As ridiculous as it sounds, it's true. Kristina glared at him. She heaved a frustrated sigh and and grumbled.
"Fine. Where are you clothes by the way? You're not planning to sleep with your uniform aren't you?" she nonchalantly changed the subject. Daniel raised both his brows as if he just remembered.
"You've got to be kidding me," Kristina groaned. "And you're supposed to be the one taking care of me? Ha! Stupid, stupid butthead. You wait there, and don't touch anything!" she warned before heading for the door and slamming the door close.
Daniel sat on his futon on the floor and took his shoes off. He laid down with his head above his arms and stared blankly at the ceiling. He sighed again and slowly shook his head. "You're the one who's stupid, stupid," he mumbled.
Not long after, Kristina came back holding a large red shirt on her hand. She threw the piece of cloth on his face, again, and gently closed the door behind her. "I'll let you borrow dad's shirt, but I couldn't find his pyjamas anywhere, so you just wear those pants you're using right now."
Daniel took the red shirt off his face and sat up on the futon. "I'm wearing trousers underneath these pants--"
"NO." She quickly replied. Daniel took it off anyway. As he openly took off his uniform to change into Jonathan's shirt, Kristina winced and turned around. After he finished, she took a bar of chocolate out of her pocket and threw it on his futon. "Dinner."
"Seriously?" Daniel took the chocolate. "But I don't like dark chocolate."
"Me neither. That's why I'm giving it to you. because I know you hate it." She grinned, thinking that she won this time. Although, she did feel a bit guilty for only giving him a bar of chocolate for dinner while he cooked her a delicious burger steak earlier.
"I'd rather eat poop," Daniel stuck his tongue out and put the bar of chocolate away. Ever since he was a child, he despised dark chocolate because it made his tongue itch, his face get rashes and his cheeks puff. For short: he was allergic to dark chocolate, and Kristina knew that.
"Then go ahead and eat poop," she snapped back.
"Okay," he grinned. "Can I eat you?"
Kristina jumped on her mattress and threw him three fat pillows. "NO! STAY AWAY! STAY AWAY!"
Daniel caught the two pillows with his hands but the last one smacked his gorgeous face. Hard. He groaned and rubbed his nose. "Geez. I was just kidding. You take things way too seriously Poopy."
Kristina also stuck her tongue out. "No I don'! You keep on joking around and teasing me with the same exact expression on your face that I'm not so sure if you're serious or not anymore!" She hit her head on the pillow and tucked herself completely inside her blanket.
Daniel sighed. "Do you want me to be serious?"
That question silenced her. Did she? If Daniel really was serious, what difference will it make? She didn't reply and pretended to fall asleep.
"Poopy? Are you sleeping?" he asked. She didn't move one bit.
"But it's still too early," he said. She still ignored him. Daniel had a smug look on his face when another bright idea lit up in his head. He climbed up to her bed and shook her shoulders back and forth. "Poopy, Poopy, Poopy, stinky Poopy~" he sang.
Kristina cringed and tried to shake his hands off her. "GRAAAR! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING NOW?!"
"Oh how cute." He looked at her current position. She looked like a worm since she was tucked tightly inside her covers, and he imagined her face getting red right this instant. "A Poopy-sushi."
"WHAT?!" she roared. Daniel took both ends of her blanket and quickly pulled it. Kristina rolled in fast-motion inside the blanket like a top being spun, and when the entire blanket was off of her, she landed on his lap. He gave her a victorious grin. "Hah."
"S-STUPID!!!" her face was really, really red now. Daniel pinched her cheeks and stretched her face. "Wha a he?!" (What the hell?!)
"Hmm?" he smiled at her like a fool. "Did you say something?"
Kristina couldn't comprehend to what was happening. She was sitting on his lap for Pete's sake. His lap! And he was pinching her cheeks as if she was a baby. She couldn't get more aggravated with the thought. So she took her arms and began pulling his cheeks as well, only harder. "Le ooo!!!" she screamed. (Let go!)
"Yuu err!" Daniel too. (You first!)
"U-ed!!! Ah-ed!!!" (Stupid! Butthead!)
The wrestling match began. Kristina felt her face getting numb already but she wouldn't back down. She stretched Daniel's face as far as she could. "OW!!!"
As for the finale, because Daniel wanted to end now since it was getting kind of awkward, he flipped her over the bed, trapped her by laying on top of her, pinned both her arms above her head and pinched her nose. "You lose."
Kristina's eyes couldn't get any wider, and her face couldn't get any redder. She bit the insides of her mouth since it felt numb. She glared at him. "GET OFF ME YOU BUTTHEAD!!!"
Daniel chortled and drew his face closer to hers. "Ha-ha. Red Poopy."
"S-Stupid!"
She felt like her heart was going to explode at any moment now and her insides tied up into really tight knots. Why is he the only boy who ever made her feel this way? Well, who wouldn't feel this way when there's a boy on top of you, pinning your arms above your head and your faces are just, like, one inch apart?
Daniel laughed and let go of her. He sat on the side of her bed and glanced at her red face. She quickly sat up as soon as he let her go and kicked his butt down to his futon. "IDIOT! BUTTHEAD! STUPID! YOU... YOU... GAAA!!!"
"Ow." Daniel rubbed his behind. "You put too much force on your kick."
"You're impossible!" she let out a really deep, frustrated, audible breath and furiously hit her head on the pillow, her back facing him. "Let's just sleep okay?! We have class tomorrow. Just... Shut the lights and turn the lamp on."
"You sure you wanna turn off the lights? You never know what'll happen in the dark," he kept on teasing. Kristina growled and groaned.
"Just shut up and shut the lights!!!"
Daniel snorted and turned out the lights. He silently went to his futon, pulled on the covers and lied down in a comfortable position. He was a bit tired after that little match and his cheeks felt sore. For a girl, Kristina's strength was really admirable. He took the three pillows she threw at him earlier and placed them at his side.
Kristina, on the other hand, couldn't sleep. After a few minutes of staring at the ceiling, she called Daniel. "Hey, butthead, are you asleep?"
"I can't," he mumbled, but his voice sounded sleepy.
"Where's my blanket?" she asked. Daniel grinned. When he took her blanket earlier, he threw it toward his futon so he could use it instead. Her room was really cold, and there was only one blanket.
"I'm using it," he replied.
"But it's mine!"
"Then you get it."
"Just throw it at me!"
"No. You get it from me. I'm too tired right now."
Kristina bickered. "Stupid lazy butthead! Hurry up! My feet are freezing!"
"But if I give it to you, I'll freeze too." Daniel yawned.
"Then go find another blanket downstairs!"
"But I like this one."
"DANIEL!!!"
He held in his laughter. "Yes Poopy?"
She groaned again and jumped on his futon. She violently took her blanket off of him and went back to her bed. After about half an hour passed, she still couldn't sleep. She tossed and turned, she felt really tired and her eyes were getting droopy, but why couldn't she fall asleep?
She felt the atmosphere. The night was silent and cold. Which reminded her, did Daniel feel cold? He was only wearing a shirt and a pair of trousers, that butthead. He had no blanket on too. Did he feel cold or not? Because for Kristina, it was freezing.
She peeked from her bed and saw Daniel's back. Though it was dark, she could still see him because of her little lamp was on. He was really quiet, probably already asleep. She felt a bit guilty for not giving him a blanket. She wanted to go downstairs and take one of her mom's covers from the cabinet, but she was scared of the dark.
Reluctantly and unsure of what she was doing, she slowly climbed down her bed with the blanket on her hand and kneeled down on Daniel's futon. She carefully positioned herself beside him and covered the both of them with her blanket. She had no idea as to why she did that, but she just felt the need to.
She turned around so her back was facing his. It was a bit awkward for her but since he was asleep, it was alright. She'll just have to wake up really early tomorrow so Daniel won't find out about this. What she didn't know was that he was still awake, and felt her slip inside the blanket that covered the both of them. He smiled at himself and then pretended to toss and turn like he was really asleep.
He faced her back, rested his chin above her shoulder and hugged her from behind. Kristina winced and cringed from the shock. She shook her thoughts away and believed that he was unconscious of his actions and was just asleep. She silently exhaled all the nervousness she felt and after a short while, she felt warm and comfortable. Both of them fell asleep after a few minutes with small, warm smiles plastered on their faces.
