"Fuck!"

"Oh my god! Trijan I'm so sorry" I raced towards him and rubbed his head but his hands were already there so it was like a twiddle of hands on his head. His hair was so soft and lustrous and i felt heat on my cheeks before I moved away and tried to hide an incoming blush

"I'm really sorry Trijan I was scared that it was a burglar and i thought everyone had gone out.. I am really sorry" i apologized just before our eyes met

His silver eyes shone as he looked at me and my face felt hot avoiding his gaze i walked to the other side of the island. I had made up my mind to be far away from him as possible but it seemed like i was destined to not do that so i tried to break the silence "ummm what you doing?"

He suddenly looked away as though he had forgotten he was doing something then remembered, he gave a nervous laugh "I'm trying to fix something to eat"

I looked at the sauce pan and saw that he wasn't trying to do anything because what was in the pan looked delicious and delicately made, I almost salivated at the colours and smell but I had to keep my cool " Wow it looks really nice" I complimented being completely honest as I relaxed on the island stool

He smiled exposing his teeth a little making him look more handsome, I swallowed "thank you courtesy of Mr. Bran"

"Wait Mr. Bran taught you to cook?" I asked surprised at how close they were before he could teach him

He nodded "Yeah, I pratically grew up with him right there, you might find this weird but he's my best friend"

My eyes widened as amusement engulfed me and i giggled as I imagined both of them do normal best friend stuff like shopping, playing video games and some other stuffs "so what are you cooking?"

"Lean meat and vegetables"

"I have never heard of that before"

"Well there's a first time for everything Ivy" my eyes widened as my cheeks flushed at how he said my name. My name had never sounded so nice before. I watched him as he turned the content with ease one last time before he turned of the gas, I suddenly remembered Mr. Bran "I kind of miss Mr. Bran"

His silver eyes met mine and I couldn't hold on to his gaze so i looked down at my hands instead then he cleared his throat "Mr Bran would be here with us tomorrow I can assure you"

I smiled at his words before he set a plate before me, I looked at the serving it looked delicious but then my cautiousness kicked in and i had to ask "Thank you Trijan but if you don't mind what are the ingredients again?"

"Lean beef, tomatoes, onions, green pepper, baked beans, brocollo and olive oil serves with white rice" he grinned causing me to smile back at him and smile at the fact that I'm not allergic to any of those things he mentioned.

I ate a spoon and closed my eyes at his deliciousness, tenderness and mix of flavours" this is delicious trijan" I complimented with food in my mouth

He laughed "didn't they teach you not to talk with food in your mouth?"

"I know but then this is really amazing Trijan" I spoke again before falling silent to finish my food. I was too engrossed in eating the food that I didn't notice him staring at me "why are you looking at me like that?"

"You've got something on your lips" I froze from embarrassment as I felt  but then I recovered just as he stretched his hands across and touched the end of my lips with his thumb. He wiped the sauce stain of my mouth a little too much that it started sending vibes down my spine. I moved away and thanked him for the meal

"You welcome, I'm glad you enjoyed it" he said while I cleared my plate to the sink. I washed my hands abscent mindedly as I thought of how touch then I bumped into him

"Sorry" i spoke lowly and it sounded like a whisper although he heard me and nodded, we still stood there looking at each other. There was just a small distance between us and i could feel his breath but I prayed he didn't hear my fast beating her then the kitchen door opened.
