354 Words
Rayven started preparing food in the kitchen while Alex sat on the couch, watching TV. Suddenly, Rayven began to undress, taking off his shirt. Alex caught sight of him out of the corner of her eye and quickly looked away, trying to focus on the TV instead. But her curiosity got the better of her, and she couldn't help sneaking another glance. Rayven was tying an apron around his waist, protecting his toned abs from any splatters while cooking. Alex's eyes widened slightly as she took in the sight of Rayven's chiseled physique. Alex felt a sudden surge of attraction and tried to compose herself, but it was too late. She was already feeling flustered.
"Rayven, excuse me for a minute. I need to use the restroom," Alex said, quickly getting up from the couch.
Rayven looked up from the stove, slightly surprised. "Oh, sure. The bathroom is right over there," Rayven said, nodding towards the bathroom door located within the unit.
As Alex walked towards the bathroom, Rayven couldn't help but notice her reaction. A smirk played on his lips as he thought to himself, "Looks like she's not as immune to my charm as I thought."
Alex nodded hastily and made her way to the bathroom, trying to calm herself down. She splashed some water on her face, taking deep breaths to compose herself.
My god! My illness is attacking again, please not now, just calm down, calm down, calm down--
Knock knock.
" Alex? I'm done preparing the snack, I cooked carbonara, are you ready? " Rayven's sweet voice sounding like he's tempting me.
Shit! Just his voice alone is already attracting me? Please not now, my body's reacting differently.
"I- I just need a little more time. "
" Is your stomach hurting? I have some medicine in the cabinet if you need it. "
"N-no, it's fine, ugh... "
" Alex?! "
" Rayven, help please... "
Silence. Quietness filled the space between us while I was inside the comfort room and he was outside.
"What will I do? Tell me, " he said.
" f**k me," I whispered.
