I thought it would be awkward between us after what happened earlier today so I avoided Kentrell as best as I could. Well I was planning to anyway because I been asleep since i showered which was three hours ago. I yawned getting out of bed subtly smiling. Why am I smiling? I don't know. I shrugged putting on my slides then walking out the room. My stomach growled. I was heading to the kitchen anyway.

I heard shuffling and clanging noises as I neared the kitchen. I frowned wondering what Kentrell is doing in there. Well we're the only ones here unless Nick came back. I was contemplating going back to my room if it was Kentrell. Like I said,I am tryna avoid the man.

The noise increased and curiosity got the best of me. Soon enough I was making my way towards the kitchen door. Kentrell was rummaging in the cabinets busy looking for something. Whatever he was looking for must be important because he seemed determined. A frustrated groan left his mouth as he shifted to the sink still not finding whatever he was looking for. He put the stirring spoon in his hand on the counter before moving to the fridge. He shook his head not finding it there. I walked fully into the kitchen just as he closed the fridge picking up the stirring spoon again. He moved to the pot on the stove taking off the lead staring at its contents with a frown.

"Where the fuck is it?"he mumbled looking around.

"What are you looking for?"I asked. He jumped clearly startled relaxing once he seen it was me.

"Uhm...uh the stirring spoon. I swear I had it righ' na but na' ion know where I put it."he huffed waving his hands in the air. I pursed my lips.

"You mean the stirring spoon with the red handle?"I asked narrowing my eyes at him.

"Yee I had it jus here slime."he pointed to the counter with the very same spoon he was supposedly looking for.

"Trellybear you okay? Are you high or something? Do you have a fever?"I asked cautiously my earlier thoughts of avoiding him gone. He frowned his head jerking back before a sheepish grin formed on his lips.

"Trellybear?"his grin widened. My eyes widened. That name sounded way better and cuter in my head. Shit it just slipped out.
Embarrassment washed over me.

"Aye don't try to distract me from the fact that the very spoon you looking for is in your hand."I pointed out. He looked at his hand before opening and closing his mouth. Yeah thats what I thought.

"See na' how did that get there?"he scratched the back of his neck genuinely confused. Gosh he was adorable! I chuckled watching him turn around to stir the pot. "Thanks Taybaby."he said as he continued to stir while whistling. I ignored the butterflies in my stomach as I made my way towards him.

"Whatchu cooking?"I stood beside him. He surprised me by pulling me against him by my waist.

"Food."he answered taking his attention from the food leaning slightly kissing the top of my head. I blushed looking down.

"I ain't know you know how to cook."I said sniffing the air. It smelled delicious.

"I don't. Well to be more specific I like to experiment around with ingredients trying to make something to eat."he said still holding me to his side. His scent hovered around me,a tint of wood and lemon. A weird combination but nice all the same. I reluctantly wrapped my arms around his torso leaning towards him. I basked in the warmth of his body a smile forming on my lips . Everything is happening so fast. I still can't wrap my head around all this.

"Sit at the table mamas. Lemme feed you."he turned winking at me.

"How you like it?"he watched me intently as I took a bite of whatever he cooked. It has no name. I moaned at the sweet taste my taste bud fully awakening.
