CHAPTER 20* CRINGEY STEVEN
ERICA'S POV
Is it already dawn? Darn it! I barely even slept yesterday, thanks to Steven.
His snores kept me up all night and now I have dark circles under my eyes. Great! What a pleasant way to start my morning routine. Yesterday's club idea was bad. My indecisive decisions always gets me into trouble. They are super unreliable.
Nonetheless i should cherish today's morning since the sun is pretty much aesthetic. Might as well post some sunkissed pics on Instagram later. Sometimes I envy those little doves. All they do is eat, sleep & fly high in the sky And ofcourse by performing their morning chirping ritual. I wish I could be one of them.But I have to fulfill my duty as a human being. Speaking of which, steven isn't up yet. I should wake him up.
What the fudge? He was literally dozing like a pig a few minutes ago and he's gone already? Nevertheless i should make myself some breakfast.
Sometimes I pity Steven's luck. He can't even have my heartwarming breakfast. Anyways let's get back to breakfast. Which reminds me what should I make for breakfast today?Hold up, am I hearing things now? Is someone humming? Where is the humming coming from? Let me take a stroll all over my room. I roved my eyes everywhere but i couldn't get a hold of it.
The only place which was yet to stroll now was the bathroom. Now that I have strolled everywhere it won't harm to take a look at my bathroom too right? I mean what possibly could be there in the bathroom? It's not like I am going to find a box of treasure or something like that huh!
"Ahhhhhhhhh...
"You startled me, what are you even doing here?" For a moment my heart was throbbing so fast that i placed my hand on it. After running a hand through my hair & exhaling out my fear I was finally back to square one.
"Me? I startled you? Why would you even get scared? It's morning not night ," claimed Steven. Half- naked with only towel wrapped around his waist, his six pack abs, his hair drenched with water, his triceps were like cherry on cake and there he was standing midway outside the bathroom with mini face towel hung on his neck. He sure is a definition of chocolate- boy. If it weren't for his narcissistic & self eccentric personality I would have made him mine.
Are you insane Erica? What are you even dreaming of? That's nearly impossible. You & him? Lmao. What has happened to your taste Erica? Don't settle for less when you can get yourself perfect guys with no drama. Okay let's cut to the chase for now.
"Were you just drooling right now Miss nerd?" He smirked, leaned sideways against the wall flexing his super bulky biceps.
"First off no and secondly i ain't a nerd alright?" I flipped my hair out of pride & crossed my arms to show him i ain't what I look like.
"Are you sure miss nerdy?" He moved three steps closer to me and pushed my hair back behind my ears making me super mousy to even look at him.
" Yes I am so sure of it and stop being such an ass," i bit my lower lip and looked anywhere but at him. I shouldn't have called me him an ass.
"What did you just call me now?" He pressed me against the wall with his hands above my head and lifted up my chin by his index finger making me unable to escape from his undeniable wrath. His eyes were bored into mine making me unable to speak, more like making me mum by his undeniable charms.
He was so close to me almost like inches between us. As a matter of fact I closed my eyes. Let's face it, i don't have any clue on how to respond to these kind of interactions because i have never been into these kind of circumstances alright? Soon silence filled in the room and that silence was consuming me to be precise. I was waiting for his response but as soon as I didn't feel anything I just opened my eyes only to find out that the towel which was wrapped around his waist was lying on the floor And the view was so spectacular for sure.
"Pftttttt... Hahaha... I couldn't hold my laughter any further and i was uncontrollable at that moment.
"W-what are you laughing at huh? What's there to laugh?" He cleared his throat and quickly grabbed his towel & wrapped it around his waist as it was before.
"Well I didn't know that you liked SpongeBob boxers." And again i chuckled for a while until i couldn't laugh anymore.
"S-so what's wrong with SpongeBob?"
He stammered, trying to hide his face which was filled with immense shyness.
"There's nothing wrong with uh SpongeBob it's just a bit funny for a thirty year old guy to wear it." I placed my fingers on my temples incase I loose control over myself again & laugh like an insane person.
"What? Did you just mock me? In that case, i would recommend you to mind your own business." He planted a fake smile, trying his best not to go overboard although he did.
"I didn't even mock you and besides why are you even getting so worked up? I watched him as he was also looking at me while putting his trousers on.
"Why do I even talk to you? I am so naive to actually have a conversation with you." He sighed as he rolled his eyes while trying to set his hair with water and hairbrush.
"Well then suite yourself, you probably won't even remember what actually happened yesterday," i smirked toying with my lips. Placed my hands in the pockets of my shorts.
"What happened yesterday? Am I missing out on something?" He forced his eyebrows to form a frown and came to a halt from what he was doing.
"Something? You sure are missing out on tons of things." I pulled out my phone from my shorts and showed him in what state he was in yesterday.
"No way in hell did you do that. Give that to me now," he widened his eyes trying his best to snatch away my phone.
"What's done has already been done. Your picture has already been sensational over a night. Don't worry about it; credits are already given to you by tagging you." I bluffed. To be honest i didn't post his adorable tipsy pictures anywhere since they will do me tons of favour by using against him.
"You-u just wait and watch. I will definitely pay back the favour back to you," He gritted his teeth and was so baffled; alarming me that he won't let me have a good time working under him. I did go overboard though didn't i?
In the meantime Steven got ready & packed his stuff ready to leave for his work. Glaring at me as if his eyes whispered that he wants me back at work as soon as possible. Letting me know that he won't be going easy on me today in every possible way.
I should have seen it coming. Now I am deeply regretting my decision. I should have posted those pictures of him letting the whole world know of his little tricks. Might as well get ready for work if I don't want to get fired. God knows for what storm is forming getting prepared to make it's way at me!
