Cornelia's POV
Last night was a terrible night. We kept fighting and fighting. First, he slept shirtless which made me yell, we fought about that. In the end, I let him slept shirtless. Second, about the bed and couch, at first I slept on the couch but he didn't let me. And then I asked him to sleep on the couch... but he didn't want to. So we both ended up sleeping on the bed. We separated our parts with a bolster. He slept on the right side and I slept on the left side. Thirdly, at midnight he crossed the bolster! I had to kick him away. Which made him fall of the bed... maybe I kicked too hard. I laughed remembering that accident. His face looked so priceless. Then we started a fight again... Not waiting too long. He began to fall asleep again.
I kept staring at him while he was sleeping. His face looked so cute and innocent, calm too. He looked so handsome and hot. He had a great six pack. Wait! How could I think like that? No. I couldn't fall for him.
I didn't understand him. Sometimes he was calm and supportive. But he could be an evil in an instant. Was he bipolar? While thinking about him, I fell asleep.
In the morning, when I woke up, I felt his hand on my waist. My back was facing him and I felt his chest is on my back. I liked this, It was warm. I liked this kind of feeling.
But I couldn't think like that. I quickly removed his arm and ran away to the bathroom. I saw him awake by my action and I heard him laugh, I thought he realized what he had done.
I met his family in the kitchen, they welcomed me very well. Yesterday was a good day except the night part. They took a good care of me, we started the morning with breakfast with everyone in the dining room.
"Good morning, Grace, Sophie, Anthony."
"Good morning, sweetheart." Sophie replied me. Grace and Anthony gave me a smile.
"How was the night here, Cornelia?" Anthony asked me.
"It was fine."
"I heard you and my son fighting a lot though." Grace said.
I was blushing. "Yeah. I just want us to keep our privacy." I heard all of them laughed.
"Good morning everyone" Anne and Colton walked down the stairs.
"Morning." We all replied.
"What are we going to do today?"
"Let's go shopping!" Anne said.
"Yeah. Let's go. It will be me, Mother, Anne, Cornelia and Colton."
"Me? I have to work. I have a meeting today."
"I have called the company that you will have a day off today. You need to accompany your girlfriend here." Anthony said.
I heard Colton's sighed. I wanted to laughed. We started to eat our breakfast. And had some chit-chat.
-------------------------------
We canceled our shopping plan because Anne need to do some business. Instead of shopping, I and Colton went to a market. I want to make a delicious homemade dinner for them. I promised them I will cook for them tonight, I wanted to give them my appreciation for letting me stay in their house.
"Are you sure you can cook?"
"Yeah. I'm 100% sure. I can cook."
"I don't want me and my family get sick because of your dishes."
"Don't worry. I can assure you, my dishes are delicious and healthy. You will not get sick."
We spent 15 minutes driving from Colton's house to the market. He gave me a ride.
When we arrived at the market. I asked him to take a trolley, and he did it. I had a 'what to buy' list already in my hand. So I asked him to help me to searched for what I'm looking for.
"Tomato?"
"Already."
"Potato?"
"Already."
"Shrimp?"
"Already."
"Pasta?"
"It's in your hand." I took a look at my hand. And I realized that I still hold the pasta. I put the pasta in the trolley. Now, why I was doing was double checking. I wanted to make sure, I have got all the ingredients.
After that, we went to the cashier. It's on me. I paid all these ingredients. I paid. If you were confused about my money. I have got it from Colton for the deal. So that explained where my money came from.
We went back home. I quickly prepared all the thing I need. I wanted to make beef burger steak, mushroom and shrimp spaghetti, and lasagna. Even though I was rich before, I always loved cooking. I never let the chef in my old mansion cooking for me. So when my parents were alive, I have taken a cooking lesson.
"Is there anything I can help you with?" I heard Colton say.
"Yeah. Can you help me cut the potato into a small dice."
"Sure." We fell in a silence.
Now I was in the process of making tomato sauce. Colton was still helping me. He was making a dough now.
Suddenly he poked me on my cheek. And he laughed, I knew there would be flour on my cheek now. While he was laughing, I took my revenge. I put so much flour on his face that he coughed, I laughed. We played for awhile, gave each other faces and hand with so much flour. We laughed. He was trying to get my face from my back. Suddenly I realized and froze. It felt like he gave me a back hug. I could felt that he froze too and pulled his hands back. After laughing so much, we got back to work again.
"Do you want oreo milkshake?"
"You can make it?"
"Of course. Want some?"
"Why I have a bad feeling about this?"
"Come on. I'm not going to kill you any way."
"Sure then. As long you don't poison me."
He made oreo milkshake while I was cooking. After 5 minutes, the milkshake was done. I took a sip of it and choked hard.
"Why?" He looked so innocent.
"Are you really going to poison me!"
"No, I'm not. I swear, I made it right. Without any poison."
"What do you put in it?"
"Just oreo, milk, ice cream, and chocolate syrup."
"Are you sure that you put chocolate syrup here? Not soya sauce?"
He looked confused and took a sip of his drink. And he choked too.
"It's soya sauce! I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. I promise this thing will not happen again."
I huffed. "I will not forgive you. My tongue felt dirty. I can't removed the taste. It's horrible!"
"Please forgive me."
"Nope. I'm going to tell your mom about your horrible skill."
"No. Not my mom. It's my first time being clumsy. Really. I usually make a good oreo milkshake."
"Oh! So make it horrible because you want to feed your girlfriend with horrible taste?" Girlfriend? Ops! I forget that I just his fake girlfriend.
"No. No. It's not like that. Really. Don't tell my mom. Please forgive me."
After that I continued my cooking. He still begged for forgiveness, actually I just played with him. I was playing a joke with him. But he was being serious. Of course I forgave him. I wanted to laugh, I was trying so hard to hide my smile. Who knew a billionaire was afraid of his mom?
"I will give you anything you want."
Anything? Wow! But I gave him no comment.
"Chocolate?"
"Flower?"
"Diamond?" I hit him.
"What makes you think I will forgive you if you give me a diamond?"
"Everyone loves diamonds"
"Not me."
"Okay. Okay. What do you want?"
"Umm.. You know.. There will be a carnival in the town. Can we go there?"
"Sure. If it makes you forgive me then I will do it."
"Yeay! I forgive you!" I laughed and yelled. He laughed too.
"So you just want a date with me huh?" He said, I hit him hard on his back. He laughed again and I hid my blush.
"Awww.. I love the two of you!! You two make a perfect couple!!" Anne said. Colton and I just smiled. Grace and Sophie laughed.
"We have watched you since you came back. I have recorded it! I really love you two." Grace said. Anthony, Anne and Sophie nodded. She recorded it? What! I blushed.
"The dinner is ready. Let's head to the dining room for the dinner." I said. I want to quickly get rid of this awkward moment.
We went to the dining room for dinner. And I prepared everything for them.
"These look good, Cornelia."
"Don't judge book by its cover, mom" Colton said. I whacked his head.
"Let's eat." Anthony said. They took a bite of each.
"It's very delicious, Cornelia."
"Thanks" I smiled.
"Where and when do you learn this cooking skill?"
"I took a cooking class when my parents were still alive. I have loved cooking since I was a kid."
"It's really good!" Colton said. He looked like he enjoyed his food.
I snatched his food away from him. "Sorry, Mr. But you seem to doubt my cooking skill. I can't let you eat my dishes."
"Oohhh... Come on. I'm hungry! Okay. I admit it. You have a great talent. And your cooking skill is amazing!"
"Thanks" I gave him his food back, everyone in the dining table laughed.
"Uugghh.. I'm jealous here. It's hard to be single." Anne wined, we all laughed at her words.
