Freya snuggled against the warm body she was resting against wanting to sleep more, but then her eyes flew open when she realized she was resting on Luke. They have fallen asleep last night while watching movies, and she saw that the TV was still on playing another movie. She rose up, but her body was jerked back down. She saw that Luke's arms were wrapped around her waist locking her in place.
Freya looked up at his handsome face, his eyes were closed and his lips were slightly parted. His muscular chest rose and fell as he slept soundly. His lips looked even more pink and plump up close, they enticed her and she raised her fingers to his lips and traced it once, twice-
His eyes flew open and his brown eyes locked onto hers. Her fingers paused on his lips after being caught, he kissed them while against his lips and she shivered delightfully. She pulled her fingers away and broke their locked gaze, but he smiled at her and didn't look away.
"Did you sleep well? I know seeing me first thing in the morning will make up your day." He murmured playfully as she kept her gaze on the TV.
"I slept okay, what will make up my day will be you releasing your hold on me, so that I can get up, and I can't believe you can be this cocky so early." She said hotly as she was aware of the rise and fall of his chest and his thighs against hers while he stared at her.
"You know you want this as much as I do. I know your ex hurt you badly, but I am not him, and I want to take care of you. Just let me in and I will treat you as a Queen, and I am only being cocky to amuse you." He drew circles on her clothed back and she felt a shiver go through her yet again. His gaze heated up as he felt her shiver and his eyes dropped to her lips as his arms drew her closer to his body.
"I am trying to be as comfortable as I can be with you, Luke. I know am attracted to you and you are to me, but we still need to take things slowly." He unwrapped his arms from around her body and let her up. She stood up while he sat on the couch facing her.
"I understand baby, I will wait for you until you are ready to take things further."
She smiled thankfully at him, "I will be going to shower, if you want to shower before you leave, there's a bathroom just down the hall with soap, toothpaste, a new brush and a towel."
"Why don't I join you in your shower?"
Her eyes widened as she exclaimed, "Luke!"
"I know, I know. Just kidding, we'll take things slowly."
She grabbed the remote that fell on the floor the night before, turned off the TV and walked to her room to get ready. His gaze followed her every movement until she disappeared up the stairs.
Freya looked in the mirror to make sure everything was in place after showering and getting ready. She was wearing a light green dress with earrings, bangles and a white purse on her arm. Her hair was in a long braid falling to the middle of her spine. She was wearing light makeup with a dab of lip gloss.
She walked out of her room and down the stairs to the living room where she found Luke showered and waiting on the couch. He was wearing a different set of clothes, a white shirt and brown slacks. She was surprised at his change of clothes since they didn't plan that he will be sleeping over.
"How comes you are wearing different clothes?"
"I got them from my car, I always keep two pairs of clothes in my car in case I need them because I usually travel for business and I don't always know when a meeting will end." He said standing up.
"Are you always this organized?" She asked in awe.
He only smiled and got up from the couch, "Do you have anything planned for the day?"
"I thought we should go out on our second date since you are already here. We planned it to be tomorrow, but today's Saturday, and I currently don't have any food here, so we might as well go out for breakfast."
"That's a great idea, I thought about that too, not the breakfast part anyway, and I can see why you are dressed up. You look beautiful."
"Thank you, you look great too, and sorry about not giving you any food except for last night's pizza." She said sheepishly.
"Don't worry, let's go."
They both walked to the door and Luke opened it, Freya let out a gasp while Luke drew in a breath. There was Freya's bedsheets neatly folded on the porch with a piece of folded paper on top.
She didn't realize her bedsheets were gone because she took her clothes from her drawers, got ready in the bathroom, put on her makeup in front of the mirror and went out the door without having anything to do with her bed. Her mind was also on Luke and the effect he had on her. How did her bedsheets get out here? Who brought them out?
Luke unfolded the piece of paper and read, "Next time, sleep on the bed."
"Oh God, these are my sheets, and who would do this?" Freya asked shocked at the turn of events. That was when she noticed Dr. David staring at her from his lawn, Luke noticed her gaze and followed it to Dr. David. He glared at Dr. David, his hands closing into fists.
Freya ran back inside to her room to check and make sure those really were her bedsheets. The mattress was bare. She turned around to see Luke had followed her inside and he had dropped the bedsheets on the floor.
"That bastard came in here and stole my bedsheets, when did he get in? Was it while I was in the shower or while we were sleeping? It can't be last night because I saw them here then." She ran a hand through her hair, feeling frustrated and angry at what Dr. David did. What riled her up even more was that he wasn't even ashamed. He was just standing there waiting for them to come out and see it.
"Freya calm down, when he came in doesn't matter. What matters right now is that he got in and he can come in at anytime he wants. You can't stay here, you need to leave before he tries doing worse." He approached her and removed her hands from her hair. He put a few disheveled strands behind her ear.
"I am so angry right now that I want to go there and beat him up, but I know that I need to protect you first and get you as far away from that psycho as I can." He wrapped his arms around her and rubbed her back gently.
He released her from his hug, but still held her right hand with his left hand, "Where can you stay before you're able to get another house on sale?"
