"What are you- wow." She paused and I turned, seeing her freshly showered and in a silk night gown.

"What?" I asked.

Her eyes were definitely not on my face and I smiled.

"Uhm- off guard but I'm back. What're you making?" She returned to normal like she never paused.

"Cheesecake." I returned to what I was doing.

"You bake?" She came by me, looking at what I was doing.

"More than I cook." I looked down at her and she hummed.

God I bet her body was perfect under the silk.

I returned to my baking.

"Do you like cheesecake?" I asked.

"A lot." She nodded.

"Ugh, how can you be so perfect?" I gasped, being over dramatic and she laughed, sitting herself on the island.

"I don't know. It's pretty easy though." She chuckled.

I poured the mixture into the pan with the graham cracker crust before putting it in the oven.

I walked to her, my hands going on either side of her thighs.

I could smell the vanilla lotion oozing off her.

"Now about earlier, that was uncalled for." I looked at her and she smirked, not backing up like I anticipated, but getting even closer to me.

"Yeah? Do you want me to apologize?" She faked a pout and I chewed my lip, feeling my boldness falter.

"No." I cleared my throat and she pressed a cold hand to my bare chest, not pushing me, but to just have the contact.

"Then what?" She asked.

I inhaled, smiling to myself.

"Can I kiss you?" I asked.

She smiled, licking her lips as her face got really close to mine.

I closed my eyes, not knowing what to prepare for.

Her tongue traced my upper lip and before I could get her she had moved back, her hand leaving my chest.

I laughed, defeated and embarrassed.

Her hands settled behind her as she leaned on them.

"No." She smirked.

"And why not?" I licked my upper lip, the absence of her sad.

"Because, when I said ask, I really meant beg." She whispered the last bit.

"And why would I do that?" I looked at her, her brown eyes glistening under the dim orangish lighting.

"Because I want you to. You're not as big and bad as everyone thinks you are. Well, you are but not with me." She smiled, and I took a moment to look wholly at her. She was stunning.

"I'm not submissive Reid. In every aspect of myself. I'm confident and I know what I want. But I can wait till I get it. I'm not desperate." She put her head back, and when she lifted it again, her damp bangs framed her face in the most attractive way.

"Please don't fuck with me Victoria." I shook my head and she leaned forward, grabbing my chin.

"I'm not fucking with you babe, I'm telling you." She smiled.

"The cheesecake is done." She whispered softly, letting go of my face aggressively as if to gently push me away.

I grabbed a cloth, pulling it out and putting it into the fridge.

"Would you like some tonight?" I mumbled.

"No thank you, I'll definitely have some tomorrow though." She hopped off the counter.

"Eat. You haven't eaten today." I turned and she frowned.

"Are you not hungry lately?" I asked.

"No I'm just indecisive." She sighed.

"I can order in if Chinese or pizza sounds good." I offered and she smiled.

"Which one?" I asked.

"I'd say both butttt Chinese for sure." She nodded.

"Both it is." I grabbed my phone and she giggled like a little kid.
