~~ CARMELA'S POV ~~
I was awake and could tell my environment was quite but my eyes were just too heavy for me too open.
The familiar scent from zamiel intoxicated me and I didn't feel the need to get off bed instead I coiled into a ball and hugged him
" Seems you don't want to leave this bed today ? " I slowly opened my eyes and looked up to find Zamiel starring down at me , his eye looking more beautiful as ever and I wanted to drown in them
" Do I have something on my face or is it that you have never seen anyone more handsome than I am? " He smirk and I really had the urge to roll my eyes
I sat up trying to get off the bed but he pulled me back making me lie on his chest
" I have a surprise for you " he whispered in a husky voice which sent shivers down my spine and for a moment I was in a daze
" What surprise?" I asked coming back to my senses and rolled off him
" Close your eyes" he instructed and I complied, he took my hand in his and placed something on it
" Now you can open up "
I opened my eyes to find a paper in my hands I looked up at him and then brought the paper closer to have a good look at it and it was an admission form into a cooking academy.
Not just any academy it is the best academy in the country
" .... " I was at a lost of words I didn't know what to say , I didn't know if to cry or jump for joy
" Looks like you don't like me gift " I look up to find zamiel arch his eyes as if irritated
I just stood up and hugged him,I was at a lost of words and for some reason I felt special
" Thank you.. " I managed to say
" You make me feel special sometimes and.. sometimes like a fool " I said breaking the hug
" Hmm..just a thank you? I think I deserve more after hearing what I did " he boosted
" And what did you do? " I raised an eyebrow and he wrapped his hand around my waist
" I asked Raymond Milliard to become your personal coach "
" WHAT ?! " I screamed I'm shock, surprise and unable to contain my joy in a way
Raymond Milliard and I were class mates and the most cutest boy in high school back then .
Every girl wanted him to be their date but for some reason he had an interest in me , I even advised him to date Carlene instead since she also liked him but he bluntly refused.
Crazy I tell you.
He invited me to his birthday which I agreed to come to but I didn't since I over slept, but the next day I got to school news spread like wild fire saying I dished him because he was cheating and from that day I never wanted and evaded all means of coming in contact with him
" Why are you worried instead of being happy ?" Zamiel asked nothing my expression and I turned to look at the man who is vent on ruining my life
" You've just killed me " I said slamming myself on his body
" Meaning? "
" Well Raymond Milliard is going to burn me up instead of the dishes " I sighed
" And why do you say that ? " I could hear the confusion in his voice
" Because he thinks I dished him when he asked me to come to his birthday " I said worried sick but Zamiel suddenly started laughing
" Wait hold on were you both... "
" Childhood sweethearts HELL NO…" I said rolling my eyes
" He was just one guy that liked me in high school and invited me for his birthday but I failed to attend because I overslept.. " I tried explaining things to Zamiel but he didn't look as if he was understanding or taking it serious
*. *. *
We arrived at the entrance of the academy and I was reluctant on stepping out of the car
"Don't you want to become a chef anymore? " I turned to look at Zamiel who was busy on his phone
" C..can I skip today's class ?" I said nervously and he turned to look at me
he placed his hand on my forehead and then my neck with an unreadable expression
" You don't seem to look sick..seems I'll have to lock you in a room with some rats to bring you back to your sense " He said in a cold emotionless tone and from his expression he didn't seem to be joking
" I'll come tomorrow but I... "
" Get out of the car and don't let me repeat myself... if you skip today's class then same would happen tomorrow " He instructed and I did as he said.
He also came down with me and walked towards me beforepulled me towards the academy as if I planned on running away once he left and I could feel eyes on me
" Gkod morning Mr dean , Raymond Milliard has been waiting for you " a slight chubby man said with a smile but Zamiel didn't even spare him a glance
Rude I know okay..
We arrived at a class with a cooking gas , cooking utensils and different vegetables. And I spotted a familiar tall figure standing close to the cooking gas wearing an apron
" Mr Milliard " Zamiel called making his grip around my waist tighter
" Good morning Mr Dean " Raymond said with a smile which Zamiel didn't return
" My wife is a bit fragile and delicate so I want your absolutely guarantee that nothing would happen to her " Zamiel said and I could feel Raymond eyes on me.
The air suddenly tensed up and I suddenly became sweaty and I just wished mother earth could open up and swallow me
.
But taking a closer look at both men although Raymond is taller than I am ,he has to look up to meet Zamiel's eyes gaze .And when it comes to physic , zamiel is more built than Raymond and even more handsome than his
Not as if I'm comparing them okay
' Carmela are you drooling at your own husband in broad daylight ?' my subconscious mocked me and I suddenly felt nervous
" I'll come pick you after your classes" Zamiel said and pecked me
' boom boom boom '
my mind went up in flames
What the hell is this grumpy cute husband of mine trying to prove
" He won't be troubling you anytime soon so you owe me now " he wispered in my ear and gave me another peck before leaving.
" Hey Carmela or should I call you Mrs dean? " Raymond asked with a small smile
" Carmela would do " I said with an awkward smile
" Okay then so..we'll be commencing your classes immediately "He quickly placed a professional look on his face and I sighed in relief knowing that things weren't going to be that bad for me after all
