chapter 30: Be Lazy
Autumn
Currently, we are sitting in Caf�� De Flore. I couldn't believe that only two days were left for us to go back.
I was feeling lazy today. Ian forcefully dragged me here. He bribed me with hot chocolate.
I took a sip of my hot chocolate and looked at the road. I wanted to sit and watch Netflix all day.
"What do you want to do today?" he asked. "You are awfully quiet."
"I just want to sit at one corner of the suite, watch Netflix, and be lazy." Ian listened to me while I continued, "You know, there are some days when you feel like doing nothing but be lazy. I am having that day today. I came to this caf�� because you bribed me with this." I pointed at the cup on my hand.
"Well, even I don't have anything planned for today. I thought I would ask you, but you already gave the answer beforehand. So today is 'feeling lazy day' for us."
"If you want to go out or do something, you can."
"No, wifey. Actually, even I was feeling lazy today. That's why I didn't plan anything."
I arched an eyebrow. "So, you plan everything in the morning?"
"Yes," I was amused by his answer. He plans everything within a short time and yet, it turns into the best one.
He paid the bill. "Let's go back to the hotel then," he mumbled.
Agreeing with him, we walked out of the beautiful place and went back to our suite.
After we freshened up, Ian was surfing through Netflix. I settled next to him on the bed and pulled the blanket over my legs.
"What are we gonna watch?" he asked me.
I remembered a series Isabel suggested while we were in the private jet. She recently watched and became a fan of that series. I suggested, "We can watch Love O2O. Al said that it was awesome!"
He chose another series. "Wrong! We are gonna watch Travelers."
I narrowed my eyes. "Why did you even ask me then?"
"I just wanted you to guess."
"Well, I am gonna watch Love O2O. You cannot choose! It's my day."
Ian deadpanned, "Wasn't it 'feeling lazy day' today? I never heard you say that it was a crazy day."
This man was infuriating!
My nose flared in anger. "Why do you always tease me? Ugh. What did I ever do to you? Since childhood, you have just destroyed my patience. People know me as an impatient person now, but they never asked me the reason behind that!" I crossed my arms.
Chuckling, he cupped my cheeks. "I just love teasing you. You turn red and your green eyes start burning with rage. Not to forget, your red hair makes you look angrier."
"I hate my hair. I will color it once we get back to Canada."
"And what color will you do? Green, like the Hulk?"
I roughly pushed his hands away and took a pillow. I started hitting him with it.
"Hey, you want to dye your hair, but I don't want to do plastic surgery. I want to keep my handsome fa��" I hit the pillow on his face. He groaned and said, "Well, if I need plastic surgery, you will need one too."
Hearing him, I got up from the bed and started running around it. He began throwing pillows at me, while I did the same.
I needed to take a breath, so I stopped near the couch.
"You can't run now," Ian whispered from behind and grabbed my waist, making a gasp escape from my lips.
I tried to wriggle myself free from his clutch, but he held me tighter than before. I kicked on his feet. He wheezed and dropped on the couch, pulling me over him.
I wanted to threaten him with my pocket knife. Before I could do that, he held a cold metal object under my chin and made me look at his blue irises with my green ones. When did he take my knife?
"When you look at me with these green eyes, my heartbeat fastens. It feels as if your gaze does something to me, to my heart." My heartbeat started increasing at our intimate position, while his words were giving me dej�� Vu. I just remained quiet, while he continued, "Your beautiful red hair... Do you know red is my favorite color? And I just love your hair. It makes you look hotter. I would be lying if I said it didn't turn me on."
"But my favorite color is black," I breathed out.
He smiled, not removing the knife under my chin. "Speaking of turn-ons, I love making you angry. Not only do you look the most beautiful girl but also you getting angry at me is my major turn on."
I felt my cheeks heating up. "Well... then turn yourself off," I murmured and tried to get up. This time, the knife went to my throat.
Was he planning to slice my throat?
"Wow. You can even get shy with my words apart from getting annoyed. Who knew that?" I averted my gaze and bit my lips. "I love chocolates." My eyes widened at his words. He chuckled. "Only when I kiss you, cause you taste like it."
I blurted out, "You are insanely crazy."
"For you." He removed the knife and pulled me into a kiss. The kiss was rough. While fighting for dominance, where I failed, he suddenly exchanged our position. Now, he was over me and I was on the couch.
He pulled back when he realized I was out of breath but didn't stop. He traveled downwards from my chin to my neck, leaving kisses everywhere.
When his lips found a way to my sweet spot, I couldn't help but let out a moan. He stopped and sucked the spot hard. I was sure that he left a love bite. I bit my lips, to prevent myself from making another sound.
He kissed the spot for the last time and made his way a little more downward. He again started sucking, intending to leave another hickey while I let out another moan. After he was done, he made eye contact with me again.
"Ian, you��" before I could say something, without waiting for another moment, he connected his lips with mine into another passionate kiss.
After our long make-out session, we were back on the bed, watching Love O2O. He finally agreed to watch that series. I was already drooling over the male lead. His name was Xiao Nai.
"This is why I hate to watch anything with you. You just drool over every damn male. Don't you ever realize you have a husband?" He mumbled, "Women cannot take their eyes off me, while my wife is eyeing someone else."
I laughed. "I just eye the actors, Ian. Besides, they are just imaginary for me, while you are my reality. And I don't hate it."
"Whatever. You just say that to make me feel better. Do you even care for me the way I do?"
I wanted to laugh again, but I controlled myself. He was really getting angry, which was rare. At least, he started expressing his emotions rather than being quiet and shuffling the Rubix cube.
"Fine, I will show it to you. Tomorrow is my day to plan everything. I will take you to wherever I want and prove it to you, that I really care for you like the way you do."
He arched an eyebrow in amusement. "You will?" I nodded while he heaved a sigh. "Okay, tomorrow is your day then."
I grinned. "Okay. Now let me watch Xiao Na�� I mean, the series."
He glared at me. I laughed and placed my head on his shoulder while we continued to watch the episodes together.
I had to plan something wonderful tomorrow. He really thought that I didn't care enough for him. I had to prove him wrong. Ian needed to know that he meant everything to me.
I just couldn't wait for tomorrow. What if I cannot prove it to him? If I cannot, what's the worst that could happen?
