CH.9: Our house

The whole car ride was pretty quite,I stared out the window with my earphones plugged in and putting it on enough not to be able to hear anyone and blasting off Ariana Grande, cuz why not...'God Is A Woman'; nothing much actually happened except for occasional glances from the corner of my eyes and feeling his intense stares which were giving me shivers. We reached at a tall building, wait why aren't we going to his house? I scrunched my eyebrows and he noticed my confusion, took out my right earphone and said,"We are going to live at my/our penthouse, because the renovation was done day before yesterday and I had moved my stuff yesterday." 'Our' I thought, as he finished speaking, and we were at the underground parking, he got out first...'thanks gee' I rolled my eyes and got out as well, with my earphones while his bodyguards got my stuff. We got into elevator where he swiped a card and put a password, which I happen to notice and remember, probably he is letting me...I think. The elevator comes straight in the penthouse and I just froze for second because I was actually quite impressed a bit further there were sofas and a piano in the right corner, it was all very spacious. Long pillars with the windows giving the whole view of the city...

" Do you like it?" Kyle asked.

"Um,Yeah it's actually great...love the view here..."

"Wait till you see more" he smiled, 'okay, I don't know why but I get creeps whenever he smiles like that even when it shows small dimples on both side of his cheeks.I followed him and turned to left,...there was another 'living room' and towards a corner there was a small bar, opposite to it was the kitchen, but there was a staircase and he led me up stairs the whole was massive there were like four to five rooms and they also being quite big themselves. We stopped at door which could fir two people together.

"This is your room" he said

I twisted the door knob and...wow I have personal mini living room: it was creamy and white, but the thing in the corner caught my eye instantly.I walk towards it and asked Kyle,

"We can take that out if you want"

"No no no, I play as well,so there is no need to" he looked a bit surprised though.

Straight to the big piano, there was another door leading to the bedroom: its creamy and white like the living room,there is a queen size bed and big windows with side sofa, on the right side there is the walk-in closet with the bathroom as well. Hmm I actually like it.

"So my short term fiance, do you like your new room? If you don't that's okay, you can sleep with me" giving me a smirk, and I cringed over the term 'short-term'

"No it's okay, I like it a lot thank you. Now please excuse me so I can complete my sleep which you had interrupted." I gave him a blank expression.

"I can, but before that..."he took my left-hand and slipped a...ring? I gave him a questioning look and he said

"Because we will soon be announcing our engagement ,so this is for my fiance" he replied.

"Hm" and a nod was what I only gave him as I understood him

***************************

When I woke up, it was already noon and I was starving now and I was craving for pasta real badly.

I went downstairs, towards the kitchen when I saw...a real living God

"like what you see?" he smirked leaning towards the kitchen counter,shirtless. I gotta say even though I have seen hell lot of hot guys in my whole life...this is really something. That tanned body, toned and rock hard chest with perfectly shaped 8-pack abs...Before I start drooling for real I snapped out of it and his smirk got even bigger.

"I'll admit,they're good.But I have seen better" I gave a playful smile with a smirk and made my way past him. And he seemed to shake his head chuckling a bit.

I pulled my hair up into a messy bun and start going through the cupboards until I found what I was looking for and the fridge as well,taking out my ingredients.

"what are you doing?"

"what. do.you.think?" I retorted, "Well I am cooking myself red sauce Italian style pasta, do you want some?" I asked without looking up at him.

"I have maids for a reason, y'know"

"Yeah! I know, but I like cooking, and I cannot just demand someone anytime just because I'm hungry when I can cook myself." He just raised his eyebrow in disbelief and nodded in understanding or maybe not bothered to talk further on this.

"So, do you want some?" I asked again, he hummed in answer.

I thought to make some garlic bread with the pasta, I put pasta in a saucepan with salt and oil and left to boil where I started to make tomato and onion sauce with red capsicum, garlic etc. I got the frozen/ready-made garlic bread and put it in the oven.And I just love cooking with music on, so I put on 'The Vamps' and started humming to their beats. Ignoring anyone and everyone.

After what was like 10-15 minutes I almost finally done and oblivious to the fact that someone had been standing there and watching me the whole time.

I turned around to see Kyle standing there with a slight smile on his face and still no shirt on leaning against the door frame, and I had my eye wide and multiple thoughts running through my mind..

'How long has he been standing there for?'

'Did he see me dancing?'

'Was I too loud ?'

'Why was he standing there anyway?'

'Why the hell he didn't say anything??'

I composed myself and *coughed*. "The food is ready" I pointed at the plates in my hand eyed him to bring the other.

So embarrassing! I could feel my cheeks heat up, I walked really fast towards the dining area.I felt even more embarrassed when I heard Kyle's chuckle.
