“C’mon,” I say.
She stares at it for a second as though she can’t believe I can be nice too.
But I don’t want her to hate me. I just want to know what makes her tick.
And a part of me couldn’t resist fooling her while she got out of bed and attempted to sneak up on me. It’s a shame she tried to touch me … I liked feeling her eyes on me.
Liked the idea of her exploring every inch of my skin.
Her eyes are still transfixed on me as her hand slowly reaches to take mine. When our fingers touch, electricity shoots up and down my body, but I ignore it as I lift her from the ground.
“Let’s go fix some breakfast,” I say, and I turn around and walk off to the freezer room.
“Wait … you’re not going to punish me?” she asks.
I look at her over my shoulder. “For what? Ogling?”
She gasps, brows drawing together. “I was not ogling.”
“Peeping. Stalking. Perving. Anything else you wanna call it?” I say, shrugging. “It’s all the same to me.”
“In your dreams,” she quips, her reaction making me laugh.
I smirk. “That’s my girl.”
Her pupils dilate, and right before I look away again, I could definitely see her cheeks flush with heat.
It’s always a thrill when she pushes back. I don’t know why, but it’s exhilarating, and it makes me feel alive. Like I could bring down the world and then some.
And I remember that feeling.
I remember it seeping into my bones every time I spoke with her way back when.
Back before my world was destroyed.
I sigh out loud and reach into the freezer to take out some of the meat I chopped up, and I bring it back to the kitchen.
“What … what are you going to do with that?” Jasmine asks as I throw it onto the table and grab myself a big butcher’s knife.
“Cutting our food.”
Her face turns white as snow. “I … I’m not eating that.”
Halfway through chopping up the meat into tinier pieces, I pause. “Why not?”
“Because … it’s a fucking deer.”
My eyes narrow. “So?”
“It’s a wild animal.”
“It’s dead,” I reply.
She looks like she’s about to vomit.
“You okay?” I ask.
She puts her hand over her mouth. “I’m fine. But I am not eating that.”
