Chapter 15: The Breakfast

Adam Florenz's POV

I know that she was distressed because I was promised to her sister before she took off. oh, yes, I know all about that as I did some research on my own. hint: I got help from a person with a surname of the season.

"Hmm," was the only response that I need to get me back to the present moment as I was kissing Fauna and she was perfect in every way.

Mind.

Body.

Soul.

She was the one and I will do anything to protect what was mine.

"Adam, people are looking," she whispered as I broke the kiss that I shared with her just now. I smirked at that comment.

"Well, let them know that you belong to me and no one else," I said as I was pulling her for another kiss.

"Hmm-mmm," someone cleared their throat and when I looked, it was her mother, Stacy.

"Adam, Fauna. It seems that you were comfortable enough with each other," she said as Fauna was shielding her body against mine and I wrapped her tiny waist with my arm.

"Well, we have gotten to know each other quite well now," I said as I was looking at her. She was looking at the ground.

"Well, I hope in a very respectable way?" Her mother implies that we have been sleeping together.

Oh, how much I would love to taunt her with that. Or was it because I wanted so bad in real life to happened?

I never know which one was it that I wanted anymore.

Fauna's head turned sharply as she was looking at her mother with one emotion. Anger.

"We can assure you that whatever you have in your mind right now about us, mother, was not on the agenda. We merely go on lunch date and dinner," she said as she was trying to control her anger. I smiled at her temper.

My wild cat has fire in her.

I was looking at Stacy as she was trying to make sure that her daughter was telling the truth. She lingered on me for a second before nodding.

"Well, I think Adam is a gentleman and will never take advantage of you, my dear. Now come, we will eat now," she said before she went away. I caught her smirked at me as if knowing something that we both shared. My thoughts lingered on that.

Now that we were seated at the big table. It has several tables in the backyard as I looked at Faun who was sitting next to me. She was well-mannered as she was putting napkins on her laps. I touched her knee.

"What?" She asked as she looked at me with her big green eyes. Something stirred in my pants before I cleared my throat.

"Look, Fauna, I just wanted—"

"Okay, now why don't we call our groom to give some speech for today?" Scoot called me as I was about to confess my feelings to Fauna.

My real Feelings.

I looked at Scott before I smiled as I stood up and I looked around the backyard. It was vast with people and were staring at me. I cleared my throat before I took my champagne glass and spoke.

"A toast for our wedding this weekend and you all are invited!" I shouted as people were laughing.

"Cheers!" I said as I hold my glass

"Cheers!"

The next morning, it was Sunday so I have my parents' apartment to myself as I was telling the that Fauna would be coming today to mum and dad last night. suddenly, they have left to get something for my sister while she can't make it to the States as she has to fly the plane.

Typical of Aurora.

I was making some coffee and some breakfast as I just got up and showered. It was 9 AM and I don't think Fauna would be here any time soon. so, I was whistling around the kitchen when the doorbell rang.

"Just a minute," I said as I took off the apron that I wore over my black shirt and pants as I was rubbing my hands at the towel before I dumped it on the countertop. This apartment was modest, to say the least, if compare to Fauna's place. I opened the door and there she was, standing in front of me as she was smiling at me.

"Hi," Fauna said as she was tucking her hair behind her ear. I was blinking a few times before I pulled her for our kiss of the day. I cannot wait when I will wake up next to her every morning and devour her full, kissable lips.

"Hi to you too. You're early," I said as I was still holding her close as she licked her lower lips before looked into my eyes. I saw that emotion again but I don't want to point it out for her. She must figure it herself.

"Well, I thought I need to come early so that I can get this over with," she said as she went inside the house as I closed the door.

"What, you don't like my company?" I asked her as she turned to look at me. She smiled before she dropped her tote bag that she got from Walmart on the couch.

"You have not eaten yet?" She asked me as she saw my simple breakfast. Oatmeal that I despise but I think I can get by with fruit and orange just.

Lots of orange juice.

I rubbed my neck as Fauna was looking at me as I was smiling awkwardly at her.

"Well, I don't know my way around the kitchen," I said. Fauna chuckled before she makes her way into the kitchen. She pulled out some eggs, veggies and a pan. however, she knows everything at its place in that kitchen as if she was born there.

"You know your way?"

"Well, I cooked a lot myself so, yeah. I guess," she said as she went to the sink to wash the zucchini, tomatoes, some onions and bell peppers.

"Here let me help you," I said as I took the veggies from her hands and washed them. She thanked me before she went to get a knife and a chopping board.

"Here let me cut it," she said as she was putting out her hand. I gave her the zucchini first before she cut it and chopped at an intense speed. I was afraid that she would cut her fingers but I guess she has more experience with knives than me.

"Here you go," I said as I put the tomatoes, onions and bell peppers for her to cut.

"You got some meat?" She asked as she did not slow down.

"Yeah, we have some, I think,"

"Put it out, we will boil them and shred them," she said as she was finished with the veggies before she was washing the knife and cutting board. She worked fast.

"Here," I said as I took a pound of beef meat and gave it to her. She defrosted it in the microwave before she put into a pot and immerse it with water and put it to boil on the stove. She put some salt it in.

"For tendering the meat," she stated as she looked at me. I was amused by her skill right now.

"Okay, beat the eggs." She said as she handed me 6 eggs. 3 for each omelet. I cracked the eggs and I put it in the bowl before I took a whisk and I whisked it. It was mixing nicely before Fauna was putting some oil in the pan and asked me if I wanted an omelet or scrambled.

"Omelet, please," I said before she nodded and she was working to make the omelet before putting it on the plate. She asked me for the veggies and I gave it to her before she was cooking the veggies, she left it half out.

"For me," she said as I smiled at her. She was trying to have breakfast with me and I was happy at that.

She worked to out the hot cooked veggies into my omelet. I was to fold but she stopped me.

"Wait for the meat," she said as she checked on the meat. A few more minutes before she worked for her breakfast. She was making scrambled eggs and tossed the veggies in together.

"I like it scrambled. My nanny used to make it for me all the time.

"Nanny?" Was her mother never around.

"Yeah, my parents were busy with their started up company and my sister was, well, she got more attention as she was acing everything in elementary school," she said as she smiled sadly. She just felt alone at home.

"So, I asked my nanny to show me how it's done. I think I was 6 or maybe 7 years old at the time,"

"And you learned it at that moment?"

"Yeah, I have like a photogenic memory that I remembered all the steps immediately," she said as she took the scrambled eggs and put it on the plate as she washed the pan. Then, she moved to grab the meat and chopped it into a million shred before she put it on my omelet as well as her scrambled.

"I thought you're vegetarian?"

"Hey, no one can never be guilted with that statement and besides, I live for the meat. I never told you I was a vegetarian, you're assuming me to be one,"

"Well, yeah. You kind of like one of those hippies person," I said as I took the plates and she helped to get some coffee to go with breakfast before she laughed.

Genuinely.

"Yeah, I bet you did," she spoke with laughter as her eyes shine.

Yeah, I would like to hear that again.
