Emma's POV
I can't believe I lose in a drinking match to that Asian Mutt! But I mean, a deal's a deal and I heard he hauled my drunken ass back to my room from the dining hall. I pack an overnight back and I start to head up the boy's wing in the order. I see the mutt's room and I knock on the door.
"Come in!" I hear him respond. I slowly open the door and I see the Mutt standing in the middle of his room with no shirt on. I slam the door shut and stand outside in the hallway. I feel my face go bright red. I just saw an 18-year-old teenager half-naked. I hear the door open behind me, and he's standing in the doorway, wearing a shirt.
"What, have you never seen a shirtless guy before?" the Mutt questions. I pout.
"No I actually haven't." I confess. He moves out of the doorway to let me in. I walk in and I start to look around his room. It's nothing special. There was one bed and a small kitchen attached. I found a door and I assume that it's the bathroom. I also see a couch.
"I assume I'll be sleeping on the couch?" I state, even though I probably already know the answer.
"No! You're sleeping in bed with me! That was part of the bet!" the Mutt beamed. I sigh.
"I know. But I thought you would forget about that part." I reply.
"Oh please! How could I forget that the most beautiful girl at the order is sleeping in my bed with me!" He states. He was a total flirt. But I can't help it. I feel my face flush.
"I-I'm gonna go change." I stutter. I head towards the door and close it. I see a sink, shower, and toilet. I go through my bag and I pull out my toothbrush and toothpaste and I start to brush my teeth. After about 2 minutes I rinse off my toothbrush and I undo my hair. I watch as it falls down to my lower back. I slowly start to brush my hair as I look at it in the mirror. I take out my earrings and put them in the container I brought. I then change into my nightgown. I take one look at myself in the mirror and I head out of the bathroom. I look and I see the Mutt reading a book in bed. He looks up and stares at me.
"W-what?" I stutter.
"N-nothing…" He whispers. I slowly walk up to the bed. I get into bed and pull the blankets over me. I hear the Mutt put the book on the counter and he turns off the light. I hear him move around again and I can feel his back against mine. "Goodnight."
"Goodnight." I reply. I close my eyes and I fall into a blissful sleep.
I feel warm. Like someone is really close to me. I slowly open my eyes and I see a white shirt in front of me. I look up and I see the Mutt sleeping. I try to move, but his arms are wrapped around my waist. I look up at his face. He looks so peaceful. I move stray hair out of his face. He starts to groan and he opens his eye. I instantly close mine and pretend to be asleep. I feel him play with my hair.
"She looks so peaceful." I hear the Mutt say. I feel him move closer and he places his head in the crook of my neck. "I just want to stay like this. Forever." I pretend to groan and I open my eyes. I look at him with anger in my eyes
"You, you..." I rage. He sits up. .
"Listen Emma, it's just a misunderstanding!" Lavi stutters.
"You perv!" I state. I slap him across the face and I get out of bed to the bathroom to change. I tie my hair back and put on my earrings and clothes and walk out of the bathroom towards the kitchen unit. I look at the Mutt reading in bed again with a big red hand mark on his face. I rummage through his fridge. I think I'll make an omelet. I turn on the oven and grab a pan out of the cupboard. I place it on the burner and I crack and egg. I hear him start to get out of bed and walk towards the kitchen.
"Alright, alright. It'll take a while so go get changed or something!" I reply.
"Fine!" He complains. He walks away and I can hear him getting changed. I add all of the stuff that the Mutt asked for in his omelet. By the time the omelet's done, the Mutt's already come back to bug me. "Is it done yet?" Lavi questions.
"Just about." I reply. I take the pan off the oven and I slide the omelet onto the plate. I see him sitting on the edge of his bed as I walk over with his omelet. "There you go!" He digs right in and he starts to eat the omelet.
"Emma this is delicious! It's even better than Jerry's!" The Mutt compliments.
"Oh come on! I'm not that good." I state.
"Where did you learn to cook like this?" He questions.
"Before I went to live in England with my cousin, I lived with my aunt and uncle. The two of them ran a pub that I helped cook at." I explain.
"I'd love to meet your aunt and uncle! I wanna taste what they can cook up!" the Mutt yells. He finishes off his omelet and puts the plate in the kitchen sink. I go back into the bathroom to clean up all of my stuff and put it all in my overnight bag. I head out of the bathroom.
"You know what, this wasn't so bad." I state.
"I glad." The Mutt replies.
"Well. I'll see you later. Lavi." I state. I reach for the door handle, open the door, and I walk back to my room.
