A Chance

7

I woke up the next morning to soft snoring, Rishi’s arm was still over my body and our body’s still pressed together. I glanced at the clock it was just after 10am.

I lifted up his arm, trying not to wake him. I slipped into the bathroom and saw a new toothbrush by the sink. I opened up the packet and brushed my teeth. I walked back out into the room and headed downstairs.

I walked into the kitchen, the tilled floor cold on my feet. The kitchen was beautiful, the big black island in the centre of the kitchen looked like it had never been used. I looked in the fridge and there wasn’t much there. Some fruit and I found a jar of Nutella. I pulled out some ingredients to make pancakes, I started mixing the batter and about 20 minutes later I had finished cooking.

I plated up the food and took it upstairs, I set the plates down on the small table and walked over to Rishi. I brushed his hair away from his eye and his eyes fluttered open.

“Good morning beautiful” he smiled he pulled me down to the bed and snuggled me.

“Get up lazy I made breakfast” I laughed

“10 more minutes” he grumbled

“Nope get up now” he groaned and sat up rubbing his eyes. He stood up, and my eyes dropped down to his shorts. I quickly averted my eyes and he walked into the bathroom. He looked big. I shook my head.

I sat at the little table and he joined me after brushing his teeth.

“I hope its ok I cooked I should of asked first” I mumbled.

“No no it’s fine thank you. You didn’t have to make breakfast. This is your house too now you can come whenever you want” he tucked into his pancakes and we ate quietly. I finished off my food and stood to take the plates down.

“It’s fine I’ll do it since you cooked” he pecked my lips.

I cleaned the counters and he washed up.

“You really need to go shopping you have hardly any food here” I spoke

“I know I usually just eat at home with mom and dad, I don’t really cook that often” I sat on the counter watching him wash up. He had such a broad muscly back ugh he was so fit.

He turned around and caught me staring, “Do you need a tissue” he laughed “Got a bit of drool there” I wacked him with the tea towel and he grabbed it from my hand. He was standing between my legs. “It’s ok you can stare, I’m all yours and you are all mine” his lips found mine and I wrapped my arms around his neck. He lifted me up in one quick motion my legs wrapping around his waist. He walked upstairs depositing me on the bed and I laughed.

“Damn your strong” he rolled his eyes

“Your light”

“I’m not” I laughed

“You honestly are” his lips found my neck his head buried there, his hand brushed my thigh and travelled furfur down my leg. I shivered and moaned as his lips tugged at my lip.

I jumped at the sound of his phone and he groaned. He glanced over at it and sighed.

“I have to go to the office” he stood up. “I’ll drop you off home before I go”

“Is everything ok” I asked quietly he seemed irritated.

“It’s fine just work as usual. Don’t worry about it love” my heart jumped at the word.

I grabbed my clothes and slipped on the shorts he gave me last night. He changed quickly and left. The drive was quiet we were both just humming to the song. He stopped in front of my house and I got out of the car.

“I’ll text you tonight” he spoke I said bye and watched his car zoom down the street. I walked straight upstairs and slipped on some clothes.

I spent the rest of the day at home, I filled my parents in about the weekend.

“Your sister is coming for dinner tonight and so is your brother he has a couple days off of Uni and is coming home” my sister was married and lived about two hours away. As much as we didn’t get on I loved her and she was my sister and I missed her. I was excited for her to meet Rishi. My brother was in his last year of Uni he was about to turn 21 soon and I couldn’t wait. He was so strong and had grown so much.

“Invite Rishi for dinner” Dad suggested. He seemed stressed from that call this morning but I will give it a go. I took my phone out and quickly sent him a text.

Rosie – Hi I hope you’re ok. My sister and brother are coming home tonight for dinner and I was wondering if you would come. Its fine if you can’t I know you have a lot of work. Xxx

I set my phone down nervous for his reply. A few minutes later my phone chimed and I quickly picked it up.

Rishi – of course I will come be there at 7pm?

Rosie – Perfect see you soon

Rishi – See you tonight beautiful Xxx
