FELIN
Control your breathing. Felly! Do NOT act like a weirdo,
But....... my face feels like it’s filling with blond. | can feel it rushing up from under my chin. It’s making my
tongue thick, and my jaw ache. Now is not an ideal tforto use my feet. Because he is still staring at me
and if he watcheswalk toward him, | will undoubtedly walk crooked! Just look somewhere else!
And... I've ne
never kissed anyone 1 liked before. Not ever. Or con, Felt He's probably not even trying to kiss you!
He sighs heavily, tipping his head back and chuckling at the ceiling. “Con,” he chortles, with his head tipped
back.
“Alright!” 1 snap, walking slowly around the counter and into the kitchen, just to stand there awkward as fuck
He grins, tipping his head back down and his back off of the fridge. He simply stares at me, slowly losing his
smile as his eyes travel down my body.
“Now that I'm here,” | remind him. “Just like you askedto be. What am | doing... here?”
He starts laughing again, this tquite a bit harder and now I'm wondering if he’s laughing withor at me?
Like... what if he’s getting a kick out of pretending that be... that he what, Felix? He never said he is interested in
you.
Almost too suddenly, his laughter cuts out and he reaches out his hand, Con, chere.”
Releasing a breath of air, | cock up a suspicious eyebrow and step closer, allowing him to take my hand. He
smiles brilliantly, then with one swift bug he pullsin front of him, turningso that | am now facing the
cutting board and his vegetables.
But... he’s standing so close behindthat | can feel his face against my hair. And... he’s holding both of my
wrists so gently that it almost feels like he’s stroking them.
“We're going to make dinner.” he says softly, his lips so close that | can smell the mint of his breath. “Do you
know how to cut vegetables?
1 snicker, “Unfortunately,”
He laughs shortly, the sound dark and undeniably male. “Okay. Then st
step up to the plate.”
| step forward, feeling somewhat like an idiot as he steps with me, his hands still on my wrists. | eye the
ingredients on the counter and they are just a little weird. Potatoes, sweet peppers,on the cob, onion,
carrots, and radish
“What are we making?” | ask, grabbing the knife to pick up where he left off and slice the potatoes.
“Hmm?” he murmurs absently. “Uh...”
His hands rest on
on the counter now. One on each side of me. | have no idea what exactly he is doing while | ans slicing, but
whatever it is,
“What are we cooking? ask again, laughing.
He chuckles, “Honestly? | don’t know. | didn’t really have a plan beyond this part.”
This part? | tense a bit, my face heating again, but | continue to slice the potatoes faithfully. “Is there any chicken

“Letsee,” he says, turning around.
The moment he is gone my body damn near panics. It felt really nice hiving him nearlike that. What if he
grates the ingredients and decides to do something else? Like... stand somewhere else? Felix... really?
| finish the potatoes and toss them in a bowl, covering them in hot water before setting them aside. Then I start
on the carrots.
“We have boneless chicken thighs and jasmine rice,” he says walking back toward me.
“That's perfect,” | say.
“Is there anything that you
you needto do while you chop those?”
Hino. You could be topless... “Chop the chicken into strips and get a scop pot boiling with about four quarts of
water in it. And if you want, you can start the rice too. Great job, Fell Wish granted. Now he will be standing
somewhere else, Damn.
“Yes ma'am,” he says, closing his hands over each side of my waist and squeezingplayfully. His fingers come
away so slowly that | could swear they stroke, rather than slide off Get a grip. Your're like a twelve year old.
| shake myself and continue to chop as | listen to him cut chicken in such a way that forcesto turn around.
He is slicing through every piece with absolute precision, and if he were any faster at it | might think he wasn’t
human. The muscles of his arms flex and shift as he deftly butchers each and every piece. Before | know it, he’s
done and I'm... hot. He looks over at me, with something like a hidden smile on
his face.
what's next?” he grins.
| bite my lip, when I notice him staring at it and | could swear he makes a sound. “Rinse the chicken and then
throw it in the pot. Don’t forget to add garlic salt!”
“Okay,” he says.
Smiling like a fool | turn back around. Compared to him, | am way behind. | don’t possess and super ninja knife
skills and I'm still on carrots. When | finally finish them, I grab for the onion, knowing this is about to be a mess.
Shit. At least | don’t have any make-up on.
“Wait a minute,” he says from over my shoulder. “Why don’t you letdo this one? | don’t want to you to cut
yourself because you've been blinded by the onion.”
| nod my agreement, preparing to step back, but his arms caroundlike before and his body presses into
knife is perfectly executed. And every single the flexes his arms, 1 feel them around me. Sweet Jesus.
“Is the onion getting to you?” he asks. “Just turn your face into my shoulder. Right into my shirt.”
| don’t say anything. | can’t. And my eyes aren't bothering me, but I do. Turning my head, | press into his shirt
and suddenly I'm overcwith the delicious scent of vanilla boubon. It smells so delightful that I think | hear
myself moan. A minute later, my head is still turned away and he’s not moving. At.. all.
“Oh,” | giggle, tuming back toward the cutting board. “I didn’t realize you were done.”
He nods, his arms frozen for a long quiet moment. Clearing throat, he dips his nose into my hair by my ear and
asks, “Is that all the vegetables?” And 1 feel the slightest touch of his lips as they trace over the shell of my ear,
“Yes,” answer softly. But | wish there were more!
Get to it then,” he whispers, his arms closing aroundfor a quick, incredibly tight and delicious hug. When he
lets go, he steps the kitchen with a smirk and says, “The sun is about to go down. I'm going to jump in the water
right quick.”
