Storm's POV

"Storm. Wake up. "

"hmm." I hummed in response and pulled Haze closer and wrapping my arms around his waist. As our naked bodies touched I sighed on feeling his warm skin against mine.

"Storm. "

"five more minutes. "

"Storm. It's bathroom emergency and if you don't let me go now-"

"okay, fine. But come back quickly. " I said and let go of him and he rushed to the bathroom. Laughing to myself, I reached for my phone to know if there's any news about my birth mother.

There was no new notifications from Marcus, I placed my phone back on the side table as Haze came out of the bathroom.

"work?"

"No. I was checking if Marcus left a message or something. But there are none. So, we got the day to ourselves. Anything you wanna do before you finally turn eighteen?" I asked and saw his face lit up as he walked to me and climbed on the bed and hovered over me.

"I have something in mind. " he said smiling and leaned down playing his lips on mine for a peck. "Remember when I promised to making a painting of you. I want to do that today. And since-- we got this day to ourselves, I want you to be my model for the day. "

"And my reward?" I asked him sitting up and pulling him down on my lap. He placed his arms on my shoulder and placed my hands on his thighs to pull him closer.

"I'm making you a painting. " he said while smiling but I wanted more than that.

"and?"

"a kiss" he said with a thinking face while I shook my head. "kisses? Then what?"

"let's have a bath together. Like the last time. "

"like the last? When you pretended to not know how I feel about you and made me do stuff that were too much embarrassing. Now remembering that-- were you laughing at me then? "

"No, I was not. I just wanted to spend some time with you. " I told him and kissed his cheek, pulling him close to me by his nape and kissing his lips.

"while you acted all perverted?" he said breaking the breaking the kiss with a cute frown and I smirked.

"it was you who jerked off thinking about me, remember? But you are calling me a pervert. That's-" he placed his hand on my mouth with a dark blush spreading to his cheeks.

"we both did pretty embarrassing things in the past. " he said with an embarrassed face making me smile at his shyness. Removing his hand from my mouth he placed his head on my shoulder.

"so now you agree?"

"hush now. "

I chuckled at him and heard him laugh too.

"let's wash up first and get your things ready. And let's bath together after the painting is done. "

He agreed as we both took a shower and changed into comfortable clothes.

After the breakfast, we walked to an empty room in the mansion, that I told the maids to prepare for Haze so he can paint. The room was painted black with wall to ceiling window and white curtains easing the blinding light from the outside.

"this room is amazing. " he said looking around then walking to the art stuff I asked the maids to place in the room. I hope everything is there cause I really don't know anything about painting and all that.

"is everything there? I can ask them to buy more if you want. " I asked as he went through many boxes of colours and templates.

"are you kidding me? Everything I need is here. Well it's actually too much but everything is here. "

"that's good then. " I sighed and walked to him, wrapping my arms around his waist I placed my chin over his shoulder and watched him open a few boxes and place them neatly to a side.

"Are these all different? I mean I know difference between painting and crayons but these are too many don't you think so. How do you remember all these stuff? What kind of colour to use and what kind of brush?" I asked and saw him smile as he opened a few brushes.

"it's kind of easy if you ask me. I mean it depends on what kind of texture and gradient you need for the certain kind of shade, shadow or highlights. "

"You know what- I think I'm better with my tools for now. " he laughed at my comment and turned in my arms and leaning close to my face.

"Don't worry. We have all the time to ourselves, I'll teach you everything I know and I'll make sure you remember everything by heart. " His voice was hushed but I'm that only made it seductive as his breath fanned over my lips and his eyes stared down on my lips.

I licked my lips watching his stare and pulled him closer by the waist, letting him know that he's affecting me and closed my eyes, kissing him.

He returned the kiss with the same need and started to grind his hips over mine making me grunt and grope his ass, creating friction between our clothed members.

Forgetting what we were actually going to do we started to deepen the kiss, as I let him take over the kiss I heard him moan. Hearing the sexy voice from him I reached my hand into his trouser and groped his bare ass while his hands were pulling me in for more deeper kiss that I don't think was even possible.

"Haze. We should stop, we were here to paint. "

"says the one who can't even control his hands from groping my ass. "

"I'm sorry that I couldn't help myself from touching your cute and sexy ass that you yourself plated for me. And by the way. You're getting better at kissing. "

"thank you for your compliment. I learned from the best. " I chuckled at him as he started pulling on my shirt.

"don't you have patience? Tomorrow is you birthday and I know you want me to do the dirty stuff with you but you don't have to be so desperate. "

"take it off and stand in the center of the room. And believe me, as much as I want to pounce on you right now, I really want to make this painting of you. " he said while glaring playfully into my eyes and pushing me toward the center of the room.
