CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX ;
Eleanor sat at Grants kitchen counter, she had gotten off the phone with Helena a few hours ago, and couldn't go back to sleep, so after a few hours of scrolling through Instagram and Twitter, she decided to wake Grant up with a cup of coffee.
With his coffee cup in hand, she strolled back to the bedroom, by the time she had gotten back to the door, Grant was already awake and looking for her.
"Good morning." Eleanor smiled leading against the threshold, coffee mug in her hand
Grant looked over at her, then to the clock on the side table, "Why are you up at 8:30?" He asked, laying back down, shoving his face into the pillow
Ellie laughed, walking over to the bed, sitting down next to him, "Is your memory OK? I had to call Helena, remember?"
Grant raised his head then nodded, "Right," he looked at her coffee mug, pointing at the cup, "did you make me any?"
She nodded her head, "This is for you actually." she handed him the mug, "I can't cook breakfast like a good house guest, but I can make coffee." she smiled
He raised an eyebrow, taking the mug from her, "You don't know how to cook?" He asked, taking a sip of the coffee
"I mean I can cook, if you fancy food poisoning." She laughed, laying her head back down on the pillow
Grant took another sip of the coffee, then placed it down on his side table, his head right next to hers, "So, how long have you been up for?"
"Uh, probably since about 4:30?" she replied
He shook his head, "Let me guess, you're the type of person to call someone on the exact time of their birth." He laughed
Eleanor smiled, "Absolutely I am, is that a problem?" she asked raising an eyebrow
"No," he let out a laugh, "I think it's cute, in a way."
Eleanor scoffed, rolling to the other side so her back was facing Grant, "You think it's weird. Fine I guess somebody won't be getting a birthday call."
Grant let out a groan, then scooted closer, wrapping his arm around Ellies waist, "I said it was cute," he put his face in her neck, "7:43"
Ellie turned her face, they were so close their noses almost touched, "7:43?"
"It's the time I was born." he replied, "For my birthday call."
She smiled, turning her body around, Grants' arms still around her, with their heads even closer, "Thank you for telling me."
Grant gave her a smile, "So watcha wanna do today?"
Eleanor gave him a smirk, looking from his eyes to his lips, "I have an idea."
"Do tell?" Grant raised an eyebrow
"You're gonna teach me how to cook!" She responded, kissing he corner of Grants mouth before jumping out of bed and rushing towards the kitchen
Grant watched her run away in shock, bring his hand up to the corner of his mouth with a smile before racing after her.
