A Demon's Love

8)

***

"Hey mom" I called out to my mum who was cleaning the spare room I totally forgot about

"Yes honey" she answered not looking up from what she was doing

"Are we having someone over " I asked the obvious question

Before she could answer the doorbell ring

"I'll get it" I said after she gave me the look.

Still in my pajamas I walked downstairs to see Blake sitting on the couch not giving a care about the person who rung the bell

Seriously it's not that difficult to answer the damn door and that's saying something cause I'm doing it

I opened the door already in a grumpy mood. I'm not lazy I just hate the fact that he was right there. He could have answered it and save me some energy

"Hey" a masculine voice said buf I was too busy staring at his face to pay any attention to what he was saying

"You are Nivea right?" He asked with a smirk

"Um yeah. That's me. She's me. And you are? Sorry where are my manners, come in. Wait why do you have your suitcase? Are you the reason my mum is cleaning the guest room? How long would you be staying here? Oh my gosh I'm rambling. I'm so sorry I..."

"Sup dude I'm Blake" my stupid brother said after shoving a brownie in my mouth to shut me up

I would have spat it out if only it wasn't so delicious plus there's a hottie right in front of me. I wanna make a good first impression

"So that's the kitchen, your bedroom is upstairs second door on your left and you can explore the house if you want to just don't go to my room" he gave a brief introduction and left

"I see you've met Ben" my mum says coming down the stairs with a warm smile "He'll be staying here till school reopens" so that's like six months

So his name is Ben. I make a mental note

He returns the smile and walks in, taking in the serene of the house. It had a 'I'm not a billionaire but I'm super rich 'kinda vibe

"Nivea, help Ben with his stuff" my mum literally shoves me forward. I could almost see the gears moving in her head as she plans her matchmaking

This is going to be the most embarrassing six months of my life

After helping him carry his suitcases and some boxes, which were very heavy by the way. I ended up on his bed a panting mess

I saw his god-like figure walk in the room. He chuckled at my fatigue body and placed the last of the box on the floor with the others

"Thanks for the help, Nivea" he said . Honestly my name has never sounded better. I really hoped he didn't see me blush

"No problem" I said getting off his bed.

"If you need any help my room is right next to yours" I said with a smile

He nodded not before checking me out- well I think he was. I really hope he was. Oh no I'm turning into my mum. I think I'll actually support her matchmaking this time.

I quickly turned on my heel to leave,but me being me, tripped on a box. Ben being a gentleman tried to catch me but I fell on him knocking him off his feet

My breath hintched at our close proximity. His grey eyes turned darker as they wandered to my lips. I could feel his abs underneath me.

I just hope he can't feel how fast my heart is beating. I licked my lips nervously and I swear his eyes turned pitch black.

"Sorry" I apologized for knocking him off. His eyes snapped back to meet mine. He nodded then helped me up. I dusted the imaginary dust from my pajamas, only then did I realise how short the shorts are

My thighs are literally on display for him. At times like this is when I wish the ground would just swallow me up.

I looked up at his tall frame, his golden hair already messed up. I wish I could run my fingers in it without making it look awkward. I then looked up to his eyes which were already staring at me, it felt like he could see right through me.

I cleared my throat because the tension was getting a little too much for me

"I should go" I quickly left the room before I did anymore embarrassing things

These six months are definitely going to be embarrassing
