Minutes passed but Yukihira's face was still on her neck. Her hands were still in his hair softly brushing it. She didn't know that his spiky red hair is this soft and silky. Brushing it with a little pressure, she can feel that Yukihira is liking it.

"Forget being God's Tongue and be my personal God of Massage." Yukihira smirks, proud of what he is suggesting.

Erina rolled her eyes and replied, "Get off me! I still hate you."

Yukihira holds her still and hugs her tighter. "Don't wanna."

"Can you just… Argh!" Erina pushes him and struggles for release. She was indeed mad still. "You think kissing me would make me forgive you, huh? In your dreams."

Yukihira looks at her, still holding and tightly pressing them together. He wipes some hair that falls to her gorgeous face. Like a kid memorising poems, he was looking at her cutely. He looks so cute with his smirks and thin eyes.

"As much as I love your voice, maybe I should kiss you again to shut you up." Erina blushes when the word love comes out from his mouth. Just a moment ago, she was so mad. But madness left her completely when Yukihira kissed her so passionately. "I'm sorry." Yukihira said with sincerity.

Erina can't fight Yikihira's gaze so she just buries her face on his bare chest. Deep down, she knew that she forgave him already but it was still painful. It won't change the fact that he said those. "The damage has been done." she said to guilt trip him.

Erina can feel him groan in frustration then he picks her up in bridal style all of a sudden. She yelped in surprise but remained still in his arms.

"I'm so tired." Yukihira said, placing them in bed. He pulled the mattress on top of them and buried himself in Nakiri's neck again. This may be the best position to sleep, since he could smell her closely from there. All his worries left him gradually when Erina's scent clouded his mind fully.

Erina wanted to ask what's wrong with him but decided to keep it all to herself. He needs to sleep and take some rest before his flight tomorrow. Knowing that Yukihira somewhat declared that she wants her to be his, she can't deprive him anymore of sleep. She just can't.

And deep down she knew as well that they will make this relationship clear sooner or later.

ERINA'S Point of View

I was still in my deep slumber when I felt soft kisses on my shoulder. It was so soft and featherly, like someone wasn't intended to wake me up totally but failed to do so. I sigh with pleasure when he licks the back of my ear. I never have imagined that being licked and kissed in the ear can be this good. I was still enjoying it when he suddenly stopped.

I look up and see my idiot companion's face smirking. "Morning, Nakiri." Hair still messy but looks so hot. His eyes were still sleepy but gave him extra points for being cuter. "Watcha sched for today?"

"Same old, same old." I responded to him. His bare chest is so inviting and I am having a hard time stopping myself from burying my face in it. "Why?"

"I was just thinking if you want to eat somewhere? There's this stall I want to try." His voice sounded like his usual self. "What time will you be free?"

"After lunch, I guess." I said. Is he asking me on a date? Is this a date? Wait. Are we even dating?

"Okay. I'll pick you up, then." "Wait. But you have a flight this morning, right?" I remember him telling me last night that he have an urgent flight early in the morning.

"Don't care. Let's just go to that stall." I was taken aback by that. He was supposed to be half way across the globe but chose to stay here with me. Just to visit some stall? A warm feeling gives me more hope for what we finnaly have right now.

"A-are you sure? I thought it was urgent?"

"Don't worry. Someone will take care of it and I'm hungry, by the way. Let's eat now before I'll eat you instead." I playfully slap his chest and blush. He laughed and rolled on his back. "You look like a dried tomato."

"Sh-shut up!" I said before getting up. My face felt so hot and I can't even look at him. We didn't do anything last night except kissing but my whole body aches for him.

"You'll cook breakfast for me, right?" He ask still laughing. "I promise, I'll eat this time."

I give my hair a tiny flip before saying, "You're lucky I'm in the mood to cook. You know my penthouse in the end of the hall, I'll go now." and with that, I left.

As I was walking in the hallway, Alice with Hisako came out from her penthouse door next to mine. They both look at me with silly smiles. Argh. Not now!

" Someone's in a good mood." Alice sing song. They both giggled. "Breakfast is ready. Where's Yukihira?"

"Akira told me he has an urgent flight so we cook breakfast early." Hisako said.

"It's fine. I'll go prepare something for him since he's begging me for some of my dishes." I said and quickly dismissed myself. I don't want to be their morning hot-seat.

Before I could close my door, Alice laughed louder and said, "Nice hickey, by the way!"

What the??!

YUKIHIRA!!!!!!
