[Chapter Nineteen]

Chapter Nineteen

The next morning I took a much needed cold shower and had some serious thinking to do. Now that he knows what's going on, I don't know what my next move should be. Sure I could walk around naked and stuff in that manner but it seemed just a little too trashy for me.

I wanted him to let me have my way with him but I wanted to do that the right way.

I put on a pair of shorts and a half tank top, something I would wear out normally and tied my wet hair up in a bun on the top of my head, I was hungry and wanted some food and I need to stop obsessing over all of this, whatever happen, happens.

I would just do what felt right in the moment and see where that got me, which would probably end up with me losing because he'll probably plan something, maybe I should? No, just no. I shook my head as I walked into the kitchen.

"What do you want to drink?" I asked

"Milk, please." I grabbed two cups and got me some orange juice and him some milk before hoping up on the island again, this was pretty much my favorite place to sit.

"What's for breakfast?" I asked keeping things completely normal.

"Pancakes."

"Yummy, my favorite!" I said excitedly

"Nope, pancakes aren't your favorite." He paused handing me a plate "Strawberry chocolate chip pancakes are." I looked down at them and smiled trying to contain the bubble of excitement that was threatening to burst. I seriously loved these.

"You are so the best!" I pulled him in for a big hug "Thank you." he squeezed my tight and we let go. He dished up his plate and we shared the syrup bottle.

"Did you like them?" he asked amused when I stuffed my face in a very unladylike way.

"They're amazing, want to watch a movie?" I asked and he looked at me curiously for a minute before nodding.

"No girly movies." He called when I went to go pick one

"Okay." I smirked and grabbed my new one; he said no girly movies, not no kid movies, though this movie is freaking amazing!

I put it on and pressed play while I waited for him. He sat and settled down beside me on the couch and out of instinct I turned to the side and put my feet in his lap then pressed play. He handed me a cup of cocoa and I watched his face out of the corner of my eye to see his reaction to this one.

As it started his face scrunched up slightly while he tried to figure out what this was exactly, as the beginning played he looked over at me confused

"What the hell is this?" he asked and I smiled

"Frozen." That seemed to ring a bell with him and he groaned

"A kids movie, really?" he asked

"It's an amazing movie, don't knock it until you watch it." I said, no one messes with this movie, it's the most amazing movie pretty much ever.

"I need to stop letting you pick the movies."

"Oh please, you secretly enjoy them." I scoffed. Like I didn't see the way he tried to hide his smile or fascination with them.

"Do not." He countered and I rolled my eyes and put my eyes back on the TV.

"Just watch the movie." I shushed him when he tried to talk but otherwise ignored him and eventually he shut up and watched the movie too.

He so liked it!

He smiled and laughed with it. Olaf was the cutest thing and everything about him cheered you up and made you laugh. He likes warm hugs!

At the end of the movie I looked at him expectantly and he sighed

"Okay, it was a cute movie and I liked it." he admitted and I gave him a smug smile

"That's what I thought." I sat up and stretched before grabbing the now empty mugs and going to wash them out. I saw hands latch onto the counter on either side of me before I felt him brush against me.

"What are you playing at?" he said lightly in my ear and I smiled, I was throwing him off by just acting normal, well not normal, more PG than normal.

"What do you mean?" I faked confused as I rinsed them and then stepped back to put them in the dishwasher, and actually accidently brushing against his private region.

He turned me around and stepped closer so our bodies were nearly pressed together.

"Nice try." He said and I raised an eye brow at him

"What do you mean nice try?" I asked confused, well half confused.

"I'll figure it out." He said sounding determined and I smirked, not in the challenging way like he took it, but because I wasn't playing really at anything. I didn't know what the hell I could do to get him where I wanted so I was acting more PG than normal so I could by time and so that he didn't have as much opportunity to win.

But I did like that it was driving him crazy trying to figure it out. I gave him a quick kiss and slid out from between him and the counter.

"I need to do laundry, if there's anything you need done just bring it in." I called behind me. It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be, not being all over each other. It was refreshing to not be jumping each other every second of the day.

With that, I had a new determination that I really could beat him at this. If I kept up that mentality then maybe it would be possible, maybe.
