Angel blinked her eyes at him, she rummaged her fogged memory trying to remember what she did the other night. She ran her fingers through her hair in frustration of not remembering anything.
Elliot watched her expressions , seeing her lost in her own world, perhaps trying to remember what she did brought a subtle smile to his lips. He teased her further, " You look good in that" he said pointing to his shirt she was putting on, snapping her out of her thoughts.
Angel bent her head a little to check the cloth she was putting on, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment when she saw she was wearing an oversized shirt that stopped midways on her thighs. and her nipples were erect, kissing the shirt she was putting on due to the cold temperature of the room.
Fuck ! angel, you messed up big time ! she scolded herself inwardly and hissed.
Bringing her legs together she raised her head with an awkward smile on her lips. " Uhm---- , Mr Elliot, I am so sorry for the inconveniences I've caused you. i am willing to take responsibility " she said with a fake smile on her lips .
" Are you? " he asked and slanted his head
" I am "
" Marry me " he said nonchalantly and folded his arms below his chest.
" Are you kidding me! she asked with her eyes threatening to fall out of their sockets.
" Am not " he said in a matter of fact tone
" Listen, Mr Elliot, marriage isn't what you think it is , besides I seem to forget what transpired between us!, ok ? "
" You forgot?How about I jog your memory a little for you?'' he whispered in her ears and the hot air from his lips kissing her ears and sending shivers down her spine, she fidgeted a little. He loved how her body reacts to his advances.
Angel pushed him a little, after she realized their proximity.
Elliot smiled warily, and walked to the closest besides the vanity mirror, it occurred to her that her clothes are nowhere in sight , she rubbed her palms to gather awkwardly, " erm , I didn't see my clothes inside, any idea where they might be ?" she asked with her face down still not recovered from the awkward moment earlier.
Only one word fell out of his lips " Laundry "
" Laundry?" she asked confused
" Yeah"
But she was still confused, and didn't know how to probe him further cos he seems to be a man of few words. But he shocked her again with his reply.
" It was wet , I had to change it , so you wouldn't catch a cold, " he said and rummaged through the closet.
Angel coughed really hard , when he mentioned changing her clothes , she flushed red and her cheeks heated up .
" Why didn't you have another person change my clothes? " she uttered out of embarrassment .
Elliot's face turned dark, he turned and faced her " You prefer another man to touch you but not me ?" he asked, closing the distance between them. Angel sensed danger and took a step back " I didn't necessarily mean man ! you know, you can have a woman change me " she said trying to clear the misunderstanding not knowing she irritated him further , Elliot brows furrowed and he dragged her to himself.
Seeing how angry he was Angel pushed it further " Mr Elliot, considering how you keep your distance from ladies, I didn't think you would prefer--to do it by yourself, not with the rumors going about that you're gay ". she said and flashed him a cheeky smile
Elliot face squeezed with a frown , but he dismissed it real quick and replaced it with a mischievous look " How about you confirm it yourself Angel" Her name rolled out from his lips sexily, this was the first time he was calling her by her name and it sounded damn romantic to her ears.
