Chapter 37

I rubbed my eyes open in surprise only to find Ryan sitting on the chair beside me. He was in an uncomfortable position but seemed at peace. 

I slowly picked him and shifted him on the bed. I pulled over the duvet and let him rest. He smelled of alcohol. 

I stood up and went to his room only to find a bottle of drink empty. He is gonna have a hangover when he wakes up. Before leaving, I took a moment to watch him peacefully sleeping. I freshened up and rushed to the kitchen. I helped Anna in preparing breakfast and asked her to have some. I was superhungry. Yesterday went by fast, besides even Ryan must be hungry. 

I took the breakfast up in the room and placed it on the chair. He was still sleeping. Icrawled near him, thinking whether or not to wake him up and I realised my hair tracing their way on his face and he began to move. 

The moment he opened his eyes, I felt like a robber caught doing the crime. All though being close to a sexy guy in bed, isn't a crime..hahaha...I am nuts, totally. 

I jumped to move aside but he caught my hand and pulled me towards him. I was in his bed, next to him with my arm on his chest and my head on his arm and close proximity to his face. Oh God! I was having fluttering sensations in my stomach and the moment we locked in our stare, I couldn't help but turn into a tomato, blushing right away.

Me: Don't you wanna wake up?

Ryan: I would always love to wake up next to you!

Are my ears ringing or is Ryan actually being romantic? Has something happened overnight or is it the alcohol talking? Why do you do that to me? One moment being a possessive boyfriend and other moment kissing someone else. Damn that hurts, like a lot!

Ryan: Did you fall asleep?

Me: uhm..No. Me..an..Anna has prepared breakfast, its good if you have it. (Strangely, Ryan smelled minty. Did he just pop in some?)

Ryan turned towards me and held me tighter in an embrace. .

Me: Are you still in hangover? Is your head aching? Aren't you hungry because..

And he sealed my lips with a kiss... Kissing my upper lip ever so gently and then my lower lip and stopping in between to stare in my eyes... His pupils were dilated and I was at a loss of words.

Ryan's POV

She is so mesmerising... Somehow I couldn't get enough of her soft lips. The slower you savour them, the more it drives you crazy. We paused looking into each other eyes. My hand slowly to her hip and then to her butt.

 Her gaze lowered and she nervously bit her lower lip, the one move that is enough to throw me off balance. I grabbed it and slowly slapped it. And her eyes turned wide. I held her close and her cheeks began to flush red. I could stay like this forever with her coiled in my arms and on top of me. 

She smelled so fresh and her scent still lingering on me...was some kind of magic spell. Just then I heard a barking sound and saw her frightened as she held my shirt tight and tried to hide. As my reflex goes to protect her I quickly turned us over so she was below me and then I saw Marley pouncing up and licking me. 

Timing Marley.. Just great.. You had to spoil my moment. But I realised she was still holding tight onto me...guess he wasn't that bad to interrupt. 

I moved my hand on her head, and when she felt it was all good, she opened her eyes. When she saw Marley close to the face , she squeaked a little and then got up from the bed. She asked me to have breakfast and left the room quick. Didn't even say something... I guess its just us Marley. He went running away when he heard the bell ring. It was his food time. And I sat there all alone eating my breakfast. 

POV end.

A/N: What would I give to have a morning like that? :3 

Ryan is so romantic! I can imagine Riley's blushy face right now. And poor Marley entered at a wrong time or we have had some more action :P
