She turned around to look at me "You may come on in- unless you'd like to stay outside?" she said and turned back around,
I stepped inside and closed the door behind me "Too late for that, you can't take back what you said" I answered with a small smile and a hint of my british accent.
She was heading forward and I went after it until we reached the kitchen, god, I was starving. I gulped down and looked around the room in search of food. She caught me staring at the cookies in the oven, I gave her a awkward smile.
"Don't get me wrong" I said without thinking much.
She gave me a salted gaze "Kinda too late " She grabbed a cookie and took a bite from it while looking straight at me in anticipation. My throat felt dry.
"So, umm" I lifted my eyes up to her and stopped talking to the cookie, "Can I have a bite? " she looked back and forth to me and back at the cookie, her eyebrows were brought together and amusement went all over her face.
"Oh I'm sorry, what do you mean? you're asking me or the cookie?" she smiled at me while holding in her laugh; my body moved closer to her.
She didn't notice me breaking down the distance and was taken by surprise when I next spoke next to her "I don't mind trying out both" I whispered in a low voice in her ear and sat down on the chair so our height level would be more even.
She blushed and gulped down the food in her mouth, I grabbed her arm to turn her around and look at me, "I don't normally do that, but today is kind of an exception" I cleared my throat and gulped in nervousness, "Can I have something to eat? I'm starving".
She laughed at my comment and waved her hands at me "Don't be ridiculous, come have a bite" She took out the cookies and put them on the table before us. I stared down at it, eyes wide open, I gasped and covered my mouth with my hand.
"You're a life savior, thank you" I took a cookie and bit it with my teeth, chocolate filled my mouth and I rolled my eyes in pleasure. "Amazing," I said and gave her a thumbs up.
"Would you like some water?" she got up and headed to the fridge and looked at me past its door, her hair fell in waves , I tried my best to not be rude and got up as well to stand next to her.
"I'll get it myself, thank you" I leaned next to her inside the fridge and took out a can of water, she handed me a cup and I poured water into my cup and her cup, I gave her her's and sat next to her and the cookies.
"My gosh, thank you, you're so sweet" She drank up and took another cookie, I did the same and gave her a small smile.
"Do you get hungry often?" she asked me and I coughed at her comment.
"How did you know?"
"Call it an instinct" she replied and I got lost in her eyes for a second. I smiled at her playfully and I leaned closer, our legs were tangled together and I could sense her body's warmness next to mine, she blushed and I might have gotten closer if the old man hadn't interrupted us.
" Ren. What are you doing?"
Just then an old man entered the room and started to move toward us. We instantly broke apart from each other and caught some distance, me standing by the table and she walking towards the old man, I took a glance at him and realized he was the one I talked with yesterday.
"Grandpa, how long have you been here?" I could hear the embarrassment in her voice and I found it cute, little Ren is nervous. She looked back at me and I glanced back at her lifting one eyebrow in question.
She turned back and clenched her teeth, I smiled to myself, one point for me. The old man came closer and stood by Florance.
"What are you talking about?" he sat down on the chair in front of me "this is my house, I can do whatever I want"
Florance laughed at that and sat next to him "Of course grandpa, I didn't mean anything by that"
The old man now looked at me and I gave him a bright smile "Hello sir, how are you doing?" I sat in the seat in front of him and took a little glance at Florance, she avoided my eyes.
"You're the one from yesterday, what was it ? The guy with the bikes"
I gave him a nod and smiled lightly "Thank you for looking after them, it was a great help'
"Don't mention that"
"Yes sir"
I looked at Florance but she stil avoided my eyes, I got up and grabbed a piece of paper from the table, I wrote down my number and gave it to her, she looked up at me and I glared at her with a smile.
"I should get going now, the cookies were delicious, thank you" I smiled at the old man and headed outside. I could hear them talking a I walked to the door.
"What is it?" he asked her in suspicious.
"Nothing, don't worry about it"
