“I could eat you,” he retorts, making me blush.
“Bhodi,” I groan.
Seriously, how is it that during sex I think his dirty words are so hot, but the moment we’re done and he talks like that, I just want the ground to swallow me whole?
He laughs again and starts to unload breakfast from his backpack. I sit up and pull my clothes back on, too self-conscious to sit on the side of a mountain naked while eating breakfast. Bhodi doesn’t seem to care though. He lets it all hang out with zero shame. I sort of wish I could be more carefree like him sometimes. But then I remember that old Malia would never be on a date with a guy, let alone having sex out in the open air with multiple boyfriends.
Maybe I’m a little more carefree these days than I give myself credit for.
“What’s for breakfast then?” I ask.
“Only the breakfast of champions with this view.”
“English bacon sarnies?” I ask hopefully.
“Better.”
“Better than bacon? I don’t think so buddy. The sex must have addled your mind because nothing beats bacon, ever.”
Bhodi grins and passes me a bowl and spoon.
“Coco Pops?” I ask, staring down at the cereal he’s made for me.
“Coco Popswithsugar,” he clarifies.
“Umm, they’re chocolate flavoured, Bho. They don’t need sugar.”
“The sugar’s for you, not them. You need it. Besides, it tastes amazing.”
“Okay,” I reply dubiously, before deciding that eating chocolate cereal with extra sugar on isn’t the wildest thing I’ll have done today and trying it. “Fuck, that’s actually really good.”
He beams at me. “Told you!”
We sit in silence with just the crunch of our cereal providing the soundtrack to the magnificent view before us. It’s actually perfect.
When we’ve finished and Bhodi has bagged up the breakfast things to take home and wash, I turn to him.
“Do we need to be getting back for class?”
“Nope.”
I raise my brow at him. “Seriously? The professor will be pissed.”
“Malia, you’re not going to class anymore.”
“What? Why?”
“It’s not safe. Even when I was with you, you got taken. We’re not risking that again.”
“It was the police!”
“It doesn’t matter. We’re all in agreement with this.”
“But we’re out now. How is me being here on this cliff any different to me being in class with you beside me?”
“You need to lie low. This is secluded. A campus full of people isn’t.”
“This sucks.”
