After breaking down in the bathroom, I simply decided to just lay down next to Felix and pretend like nothing happened. It wasn't the best way to cope with the situation yet I couldn't help myself but think of San's looks, body and scent
The man was unforgettable. I couldn't help myself. Every scenario in my head was only about him. Every little detail my eyes captured reminded me of him. He confused me kn every single way possible. It was simply the effect he had on people.
"I wanted to apologize, Wooyoung." I heard a voice behind me. My heart almost jumped when I heard these words. In my mind I imagined San walking towards me, getting closer and closer. His eyes would be glued on me as he'd walk towards me, like they always were.
I turned around, my eyes met Felix's, which didn't surprise me at first but it caught me quite off guard. I took a deep breath and tried to act as normal and casual as possible in front of him. Despite the fact that I kissed his cousin yesterday, I smiled at him as if everything was fine
"It's fine please don't apologize" I said and showed him the most loving and innocent smile I could possibly pull off whilst I whisked the pancake butter in front of me.
Felix had told his parents that I was a great cook and now I stood in the kitchen making breakfast for everyone because Felix's sister claimed she would die for some American pancakes
Cooking was my hobby. I liked it so much that I was able to forget everything whilst I was cooking. But now that Felix stepped into the kitchen, I knew exactly that I couldn't focus on my cooking anymore but was stuck with a wave of guilt rushing through my entire body
"You sure?" he asked me nicely and suddenly wrapped and arm around my waist, which caught me off guard because I flinched pretty heavily when his hand met my waist.
There was no electricity, no ticklish feeling, no heat. My body was fine. I was fine. And that was my personal sign that what I had with San was a once in a god damn lifetime.
Felix kissed my cheek and smiled at me, happy about the fact that I forgave him for his behavior yesterday. Of course I forgave him. I did, simply because I had no right to be mad after what I did myself. Something Felix would find out one day but not for now.
"You're the best" he whispered with a grin on his face and dunked his finger into the batter just to get a little taste of it. I giggled and slapped him jokingly. Felix only smiled and sat down on the barstool right in front of the cooking island.
I already placed blueberries, bananas and strawberries on the table as well as Sirup and butter. I also made some omelette that was already placed on the table right next to some bacon stripes. For some reason, I really wanted to impress Felix's family.
The kitchen already smelled of vanilla and freshly baked pie. I heated the pan and immediately poured some of my batter into the pan in order to create my first pancake. "Looks so good" Felix only commented before another person entered the kitchen, which turned out to be Felix's mother
Her eyes got big when she saw the movie like breakfast on the table. She looked at me in shock. "Wooyoung, you didn't have to cook so early! That's so nice of you!" She said and placed her palm on my back. I only smiled at her
I loved Felix's mother. She was so kind and loving. In her eyes I could see that everything she said was true and came from her heart. She was one of the kindest women I ever met.
"Lia said she'd die for some pancakes so I decided to cook breakfast today" I explained whereupon Felix's father and Lia entered the kitchen with bright smiles. Lia almost began to make a little dance when she saw the pancakes.
She ran up to me and looked into the pan like an inspector. "Finally pancakes!" she yelled at showed me her brightest smile. That moment I realized that getting up early just to cook some breakfast was actually worth it. Lia's smile was everything.
I laughed and showed her the perfect pancake flip in order to make her smile even brighter. Felix and the others already sat down on the big round table that was so big ten people could sit around it. In general, the hut we stayed in was a living dream. Everything was modern but had its own charm.
Lia also tried a little bit of the pancake batter with a spoon and immediately grinned when she tasted the sweetness on her tongue. It was lovely to see her so cheerful.
Her eyes widened and they suddenly traveled to the door frame, glued on the figure that stood right in the door frame, observing the scene in front of him.
My eyes traveled to the person Lia's eyes were glued on. Choi San himself stood in the kitchen, dressed in a sinful suit that looked even more attractive in him since the tight was loose and his white shirt slightly unbuttoned.
His hair looked messy but still perfect. His scent filled the kitchen even though many different sweet scents lingered in the air. I took a deep breath. His skin looked flawless, as always the man didn't put on any makeup. San probably had the best bare skin I had ever seen in my life.
I bit my lip, unintentionally yet obviously. Why do you have to look so perfect in you suit, San? "San? Are you really joining us today?" Lia suddenly broke the silence with a big smile on her face. It was nice to see that at least Lia had a good relationship to San.
She ran up to San and gave him a little hug from the side. San ran his fingers over her hair and also smile at her. His soft spot for his cousin made me feel warm. It was nice to see such scene when San was usually very cold
"Yes, I have some time today" San eyes suddenly traveled to me. His eyes met mine. My skin immediately heated up and I tried to look away but I simply couldn't. I couldn't stop staring at his undone tie and his messy hair that made him look effortlessly sexy
The man hugged his cousin, in his eyes a warmth and soft spot I haven't seen before. After Lia let go of the taller, I looked right into Felix's angry eyes that were glued on his successful and beloved cousin, who now slowly went up to me
My pulse got higher and a ticklish feeling in my stomach told me that the closer San got to me, the more nervous I got. I needed to stay calm and act like San's presence didn't do anything to me - but it was harder than expected since the other made me feel so dizzy and sick that I suddenly dropped the spoon I just grabbed
I flinched and San suddenly smirked before he suddenly bend down, grabbing the spoon for me, his hand suddenly touching my leg in a soft way. I bit my lip. He purposely let his flat hand touch my leg with
"Careful, Baby" he suddenly whispered in my ear so that only I could hear him right behind me. His minty warm breath met my ear. My breath hitched as soon as I heard his low raspy voice and the nickname he just called me.
A warm feeling made me realize that my cheeks were probably heating up, so I decided to just turn around and start to wash the bowl I just used for my dough
"Sit down, will you?" Felix suddenly said in a rough tone. I flinched, stop hypnotized by San's low voice, I prayed that he didn't hear him saying such thing. Don't look at me San. I can feel your eyes on me. I want to look at you too.
Felix's parents seemed to be surprised by his sudden change of tone. I bet they knew that Felix disliked his cousin yet they were still shocked about the atmosphere that suddenly lingered in the ear. It felt uncomfortable.
My heart skipped a beat when I felt San's presence behind me. He still didn't move an inch especially not since Felix opened his mouth and commented on his appearance.
"Not in front of Wooyoung please!" his mother started to scold Felix with thin eyes and slapped his arm playfully. I gulped heavily when San suddenly placed his hand next to my body casually leaning against the counter.
He smirked as if his cousin's comment was a blessing to him and only grinned at the other trying to provoke him. My eyes were glued on San and I couldn't help but get nervous standing right next to him especially when his family was watching.
San provocatively waited for me to finish the pancakes just to carry the plate for me. He was a gentleman yet I knew that he also wanted to pull some jokes on his beloved cousin that looked at him as if he just stole what belonged to him
I followed San and tried to figure out which seats were already taken. There were only two options: taking the empty seat right next to Lia or sit next to San, who suddenly grabbed the empty chair and pulled it a few inches back implying that I should've sat down on the chair
I looked at San with worry in my eyes. Of course, I knew that I should've taken the empty seat next to Lia. But the way everyone looked at me and the way San just moved the chair for me like a gentleman made me feel a kind of pressure I didn't like
"I'll sit next to Lia" I just smiled at San and hectically walked over to the empty chair next to Lia, who was already smiling at me with bright eyes and a happy facial expression. You did the right thing, Wooyoung. San wouldn't keep his hands to himself and if his family would've noticed that, you'd be a dead man.
I tried to not look at San, I really tried but failed because of my curiosity. My eyes traveled to the other trying to see his reaction to my sudden decision. He looked frightening, angry.
His eyes darkened and he suddenly acted like he wouldn't care at all but his body language revealed that his blood was boiling.
Felix suddenly giggled as if he just saw the most entertaining scene of all time. Of course he liked the sight of San being coldly rejected after he just got a little too close to me. Both men seemed to fight out a battle with their eyes and body language
Their eyes were glued on each other as if they tried to murder the other with a glance. "It's very delicious, Wooyoung. How did you learn how to cook?" Felix's mother suddenly started a conversation, probably to warm up the mood.
She was great. A woman you just had to like. I almost felt bad for her because she had to lighten the mood for everyone, but I knew that she was probably actually interested in me and thus I happily smiled at her.
