My cute little duck

Laura

As soon as I stepped inside the cottage, I was stunned. It wasn't at all what I expected. From the outside, it had looked like any an old, abandoned cabin, haunted even. That was why I was scared of coming in but seeing the interior. I was pleasantly surprised. The inside told a different story entirely. The floors were polished wood, the furniture was neatly arranged, and there was a cozy warmth that filled the space. It felt… homely, almost like someone had just left and could return at any moment.

"Wow," I muttered under my breath, my eyes scanning the room. "This is… not what I was expecting." I let out with a sweet smile while Jake looked at me and smiled too.

"I have good instincts. I would have probably found this place if you hadn't found the ugly one we're in." He let out while I rolled my eyes.

"I thought you said you wouldn't shift blames." I quizzed and he raised his hands in surrender.
