Undeniable Attraction novel Chapter 25

My pillow felt so comfortable, I turned to get more comfortable wrapping my hands around the pillow. Now I was cuddling with the pillow, seriously what's wrong with you Shayan? Maybe I'd need to buy a teddy bear or something. The pillow had a scent that filled my nostrils and then the pillow wrapped its hands around me. But my pillow doesn't even have hands, I stood up realising who the pillow was. Kel Adrios was on my bed!

"Adrios, get out of my bed," I shouted pushing him.

"For God's sake West, is there anything on the bed? " he said tiredly opening his eyes

"Yes, you. Now get up. " I ordered and he just rolled his eyes before closing them.

I was so hungry, I tried opening the door but it wasn't opened and just took a bath instead. I did all the necessaries and went back to the room to see Kel still sleeping.

"When he'd be texting instead of sleeping. Who knows who he's always texting." I scoffed saying.

I sat on the bed waiting for Evie to come to open the door and when she did I was so grateful.

"Good morning. How was your night? " she greeted smiling.

"It was okay. Yours? " I asked carrying her on the bed.

"Good. It wasn't bad sleeping with him was it?" she asked and I shook my head. It wasn't that bad.

"He's still sleeping, let's wake him up. " she excitedly said jumping on the bed.

"Great. Do your thing and make sure to jump very well." I said and she gladly obeyed.

Kel woke up a few minutes later raking his hands to improve his messy bed hair that was sexy by the way.

"What are you doing here princess? " he asked carrying her.

"Waking you up," she replied.

"Right. I have to get ready for work," he said and I sneezed.

"Good morning West, how was your night?" he asked and I rolled my eyes

"Let's go make breakfast Evie. " I took her hand and went downstairs. I was still very angry at him.

I kept on sneezing while trying to make coffee but just stopped.

"See what happens when you decide to take a nap in the bathtub." Kel mocked walking into the kitchen. He was dressed in a charcoal grey suit ready to go to work, looking good as always.

"Go away... " Sneeze. "Adrios. " I completed

"I'm not going anywhere babe," he smirked saying and I just rolled my eyes.

"Thank God cause I'm hungry." Evie chirped in.

"So let's make breakfast then," Kel said.

They started making breakfast keeping it simple while I just watched.

"Do you want peanut butter on your bread?" Kel asked and Evie made a disgusted face.

"I don't like peanut butter and I'm allergic to it," Evie answered

"Oh. " Kel said. "I'm allergic to it too, we have something in common."

Believe me, you have more than one thing in common. I started a sneezing fit trying to mumble excuse me as I did. Kel came with a blanket and wrapped it around me. "You know you're prone to cold yet you enjoy sleeping in the shower. "

What's with him and mentioning sleeping in the bathtub. "I'm not going to hear the last of this, am I? " I asked irritated and he shook his head chuckling.

We ate as soon as breakfast was over, I concluded I was going down with something.

"I'm going to the movie room. " Evie announced taking popcorn with her.

"I'm going upstairs. " I said standing up and he pulled me to sit.

"I apologized to you yesterday but I'm not sure you heard it," he said staring at me.

"Okay. Can I go now? " I asked dryly

"Not yet," he answered. " I didn't mean anything I said yesterday. "

"Really now Adrios?" I angrily asked.

"I know I wanted to annoy you but not like that."

"Really? So you were expecting me to smile, clap for you or give you an award?" I questioned angrily

"You're so hot-tempered West. I'm trying to apologize here."

"And what will you call yourself? I don't give a damn about your apology Adrios," saying that I went back to my room.

I wasn't feeling too well and just tucked myself to sleep, all the shouting was giving me a headache. There was a knock on the door, slowly I went to open it to see Kel. I was too tired to be angry at him except if he opens his mouth. Why hasn't he even gone to work?

"You left your phone downstairs ." he handed it to me and I collected it. "Gosh West, your hand."

I looked down at my hands, it was perfectly fine so what's the fuss? His hands went up to my head and he let out a sigh. "You're running temperature."

"Wow, since when did you become a doctor Adrios?" I sarcastically asked.

"Just go rest," he said softly pointing at the bed.

"Well, that's what I was doing before you knocked." I retorted.

I went back to the bed and laid down, Kel still hadn't left the room. What's his deal now?

"You've given me my phone Adrios, what are you still doing here? " I angrily asked after sneezing.

"To look after you, now keep quiet," he said. Keep quiet?

"You can't tell me what to do and I'm not a baby you should take care of. " I said angrily my throat getting dry. He's just making me talk too much.

"Well you are my baby," he said softly and I rolled my eyes. Baby indeed.

I sneezed continuously and he gave me a handkerchief that I used. It had the scent of his cologne which was driving my nose crazy in every way possible.

"Just rest okay. I don't want you getting worse than you are," he said calmly

"Wow, if I didn't know better I'd say you sound like you care. " I said looking at him in all seriousness. "Just get going to work already, your business needs you. "

"I care West and you are my business, I'm not going anywhere. " he softly said. Nice try, if he's trying to fool me that he cares, look who's grown now.

"I don't want to see you Adrios, you're making me sicker than I am and I don't need you to take care of me, I can perfectly take care of myself and if you feel like you can't leave me you can call up Linda or someone else, just leave. " I angrily said

"I'm not going anywhere West, you'd have to deal with that, I'm trying to help you here stop being so angry about it. "

"You don't get it. I DON'T NEED YOUR HELP. "I spelt out angrily. Now my head was hurting from all the shouting and I desperately needed water.

"I'm not going anywhere no matter how many times you tell me to. " he walked up towards me pulling the blanket around me since I was visibly shaking.

Why was he so persistent? I guess I'd just have to deal with him then.

"Do you have a hoodie somewhere?" he asked and I nodded too tired to speak.

He walked into the closet and came out with a red hoodie, he sat down on the bed and was about wearing it for me when I snatched it from him but he took it back from me. I opened my mouth to argue but he placed his finger on my lips and I don't know if it was because I was catching a cold but his touch had an impact on my lips, it was so warm.

"Shh, just let me take care of you." he softly said moving closer to me to wear the hoodie and I let him too tired to do anything or maybe because I liked his touch. I guess I'd just have to relax and let him take care of me.

"Do you need anything? Water?" he asked and I nodded too tired to speak and he got one for me.

"Do you need anything else? " he asked and I shook my head.

He left and I sighed in relief. I was finally free from him. I laid on the bed pulling the blanket around me. Now, what was I thinking staying in the shower for two hours? I relaxed and found myself sleeping a few minutes later.

I woke up to find Kel next to me. Gosh, I thought he was gone, what was he still doing here? Has he been watching me sleep? This was weird.

"You're awake," he stated, well duh

"I made soup for you," he said and I sneezed.

"I'm not interested in eating." I stubbornly said.

"I didn't ask if you were," he said smirking

He sat close to me, the soup on a tray beside him. "Open up babe."
