Chapter 5 - Liquor's Sweetness

Tristan's Pov

*Door opens

"I'm Home!" I entered the house as I stumble over nothing and fell over.

"Hss~ that hurts.." I massage my knees and dusts my pants.

"Where's my baby?" I blurted out. And knew the answer right away because of the sound of the utensils and running water.

I walked more carefully as passed through the doorway to the kitchen where the noise came from.

I saw the figure and smiled happily as I hugged it tight almost squeezing it.

"Hi baby~"

"Meow~"

Hehe, Sunny is so cute.

"Did I disturb your sleep?" I giggled as I continue giving kisses and headpats on her after sitting on a nearby couch.

Not until a shadow covers the light that illuminates us.

And as I look up, I saw a tall and handsome man wearing a cute apron while both hands are on his waist. Looking at us or I mean me with those cold eyes.

Shivers~

"Are you drunk?"

It's my honey, sugar, cupcake, blueberry pie!!

"No~" I said as I smile at him brightly hoping that he will let me off.

But that reply makes him frown even more. He leans close on me and sniffs near my neck.

"Tsk! Lie on my face ever again I swear to you."

"Hehe~" I just put my head down avoiding his gaze and continue giving headpats on Sunny.

"How many bottles did you drink?"

Shit.

"Uh.. umm.. I forgot."

"How. Many?"

Cold sweats.

Cold swea-

Cold sw-

Cold~

(• ▽ •;)

"Just thr-

"Tristan!!?"

"Six.." I think I've lost my soul.

Silence...

.....

...

..

"You sleep on the couch tonight."

No!!!

"No! Please, I'm sorry~" I hugged his thighs not letting go, never.

"I won't drink anymore, promise!" I'm now using my ultimate pitiful eyes.

"I doubt you wont drink anymore but nice try though. Now let me go!"

"No! I wont let go until you forgive me, dont let me sleep on the couch! It's small and cold without you!" I'm in the verge of crying here!!

"You wont change my mind! Now let go off me! I got some dishes to wash!" He tried many things to get me off of him but nothing works, I'm stuck here like a gum. Heh.

He pants and sweats after pulling of his last strategy, he looks annoyed but gave up after.

"Suit yourself then." He slowly drags me to the kitchen sink.

"Ah!" But still, I kept holding on while he begins to wash the dishes.

"Hey, forgive me please?"

"No."

"Please? Pretty please?"

"No."

That's it!

I stand up and hugs him tight from behind.

"Are you sure you dont want me there with you tonight?" Plants small kisses on neck and cheeks.

"Yep."

"Really?" More kisses.

"Yes."

"You wont regret it?" Need more.

"Absolutely."

Dumbfounded. (─∆─|||)

"Babe!!!??"

Cries*

"O-okay, you d-dont want me anymore. I-I u-understand. "

"I'll just take a shower a-and sleep on the cold c-couch."

Mission Miserably Failed.

I left and goes straight to the bathroom.

Took a bath.

Wear pajamas.

Two pillows and a blanket on hands.

Goes straight to the couch.

Lay down and stares quietly at the ceiling.

Silence.

.....

....

...

My life is miserable.

Hansel's Pov

Sighs*

That dumb man.

My head aches!

It's like taking care of a big baby.

Nevermind.

I finish up cleaning the kitchen and was about to take a shower too when i got startled by him.

Because who wouldn't be!?

He's like a dead body with eyes wide open! And the single lighted lamp near the couch is the spotlight presenting the cold like lifeless body.

He will be the death of me!

"Hey?"

No answer.

"Tristan?"

No answer.

I slowly walk to him. He did decide to sleep on the couch and he even barely fits.

I quietly laughs at him, he looks like a messily wrapped burrito and notices that..

He's already sleeping.

Wait.. huh?

With eyes wide open!!?

Oh Jes--

"Tristan! Wake up!" I shook his shoulder.

"W-what?" He sits up, rubs his eyes and I sighed deeply.

"Go sleep to the bed."

He suddenly looks up to me.

"Really?!!" His eyes just sparkled or is it me drinking too much coffee lately. So bright I might go blind!

"Just go or I'll change my mind."

"I'm going! I'm going!" He's about to go when he stops and suddenly kisses me on the lips.

"Hehe~ I love you~"

Blushes*

"Ugh.. uh! Just go!!" I pushed him away, rushed to the bathroom and locked the door.

"Hey! Where's my I love you too??"

He is really gonna be the death of me.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Liquor is deadly to one's mind...

And to one's heart.

Yet..

It's also intoxicatingly sweet.
