An inevitable smile flashed on Rhezi’s face when the unfamiliar ceiling greeted her sight. It was plain white but had an intricate design at the center. It’s a combination of white and black color of false ceiling with LED lights and a gold mini chandelier. It was luxurious and classy. A breathtakingly beautiful view.
Rhezi changed her position from lying down and examined the crumpled blanket next to the comforter she was using. Kraius used it the other night and when he also slept beside her while he hugged her from the back. Something that gave and tugged her heart of happiness.
She was overwhelmed by the memories with Kraius the other night. And she could still feel Kraius hug behind her. Even the scent of his body seemed to cling to her senses and spread throughout her whole system.
Rhezi took her phone under the pillow and swiped it to scan some messages. She smiled even more upon seeing her friends’ greetings in their group chat. They were just simply naughty and showered her with red heart emojis as a greeting.
Rhezi’s friends knew what had happened to her. And she does not intend to keep it a secret from them too. Starting with her having a crush and Kraius coming to her life. Even the slightest information about her idea of making Kraius her pretend boyfriend was revealed. She told them the truth and they supported her.
When Rhezi got tired of scrolling on Facebook and Instagram, she quickly got up. Then the smile crept on her lips again when she saw the dress she was wearing. She even smelled it on the side of her neck and seemed to be daydreaming while closing her eyes. It made her smile even more.
It was a white cotton shirt from Kraius. It looked like a dress on her because of its length that reached the middle of her snow white like thighs. Kraius gave it to her the other night to get her to change her clothes. While wearing a black Calvin Klein boy shorts.
Rhezi quickly moved away from the bed and stood at the foot of it. She stretched her arm and moved a bit for her reflexes. She felt a bit dizzy because of sleeping late, but it was okay for her. Nothing could beat her mood.
Rhezi was in that position when the door of the room where she was in had opened. Her gaze quickly turned to it while Kraius also stopped quickly intending to enter her room. He was stunned while looking at the not so sexy yet attractive girl at the center of his guestroom.
“Ah! Pervert! ” Rhezi shouted. She abruptly pulled the thin blanket on top of the bed and wrapped herself in it. She glared at Kraius again, who was still astonished by the sight of her.
“Get out of here!” Rhezi snarled on him. Her movements were quick to head to the bedside table. She took the small metallic alarm clock and faced Kraius, who was still looking at her intently. She frowned and because of that she threw it at Kraius direction unceremoniously.
Bulls eye.
Kraius was awakened from the sudden pain he felt in his forehead. He unconsciously felt it while still staring at Rhezi intently. He also did not mind the pain in his forehead and even the bulging eyes of Rhezi out of shock that seemed to ask for a fight. He walked directly to her like nothing could stop him.
“You stay there!” Rhezi tried to stop Kraius from what he was about to do. She stretched her arm in front of him and got shocked when the blanket fell.
Rhezi cursed inside her mind nonstop. She was devastated, and her heart was pounding hard. She felt like she was in a game where she’s about to lose. With a dropped shoulder, Rhezi faced Kraius who had already stopped approaching her with a few meters of distance. She pouted.
“Don’t look at me like that. It’s embarrassing. ”
Kraius smiled upon seeing Rhezi blushed and shook his head. He desperately wanted to shrug his unwanted thoughts. Surely, he has seen the sexiest women in town. But Rhezi’s voluptuous body has a different effect on him. His unadulterated desire was evident. She awakens the strange feelings within him. Something that made him even more confused.
“I wanted to hug you and get my morning kiss,” Kraius said out of nowhere.
Rhezi’s cheek blushed even more at what Kraius had said. She glared at him for a while and shook her head after. She also picked up the blanket and turned her back on him and just folded it neatly. She had nothing to cover now. Kraius had already seen what he shouldn’t have seen in her. She has nothing to hide anymore even though she felt a little bit ashamed.
Rhezi stopped what she was doing and widened her eyes. All the fibers in her body were awakened. The tiny hairs on her nape bristled because of a gentle kiss on it. Her heart throbbed but not in pain. It was because of the nervousness that she felt at that moment while Kraius hugged her from behind. She was breathless and obviously helpless.
“W-What are y-you doing?” she stuttered. She sneered when Kraius laughed softly behind her. She even felt him kiss her hair while swaying her body in a slow motion.
“I’m just claiming what’s mine,” Kraius whispered sensually. He also buried himself more in Rhezi’s shoulder.
Rhezi peeked at him even though their position was making it uneasy. “I’m serious, Kraius,” she said with conviction.
“I’m not joking either,” he replied, which made Rhezi’s heart pounded even more. “You looked perfect in my shirt, by the way.”
Rhezi suppressed her smile. She sighed and nodded. Even though she was not sure of what was Kraius and her label with each other. Everything seemed so fast for her. She wasn’t sure of herself either. All she knew was that she liked Kraius in the true sense of the word.
They ate their breakfast in silence. Kraius took her to his fancy kitchen on the first floor of his house. It was a modern style that was made of black and white interior. Fully equipped and full of modern kitchen tools and appliances. While there were small lights over the island counter.
“Are you serious?” Rhezi asked. She also looked at Kraius who did a cross-armed under his chest and made an observation beside her while she was busy washing the dishes.
“Yes!” Kraius answered her question. “Make it fast, Chubz. San Vicente is far away. ”
” B-But-”
” No buts, ” Kraius interrupted.
