Evelyn moaned lightly as her head throbbed but she felt comfortably warm and cozy. Groggily opening her eyes she blinked slowly as if coming alive. The girl furrowed at the unfamiliar wall. Wobbly she pushed her hair away from her face and realized she was drooling. She wiped the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand and checked the pillow, luckily the drool didn't get on the pillow. She plopped her head back on the pillow and sighed, closing her eyes. A little more sleep would do her good and the bed felt so warm. The warmth behind her moved away and her brows scrunched. Mumbling something incoherent she shifted back plastering her back to the warmth and then she wriggled back some more, snuggling in the cocoon only to hear a low grunt. She blinked open her eyes and attempted to gather her senses. The girl tried to shift but something heavy was restricting her movements, it was soothing except for the hard thing poking her asscheek. She hazily tucked her hand back and gra

She barely saved herself from falling on the floor face first. "Pfft," She abruptly turned around and he cupped his mouth to suppress the laughter but he couldn't as the whole room echoed with his booming laughter. Her face turned crimson. "Let me take a picture, you look adorable." He guffawed and opted to grab his phone. Her eyes widened and she gasped at his audacity as she clutched the shirt down, luckily it was big enough to cover her thighs. A clicking sound had her heart stumbling a couple of beats as she instantly pulled the pants up and made a bunch of extra before holding it on her belly. "Delete it!" She screeched charging towards the bed but he just stared at the picture and burst into another hearty laughter. The corner of his eyes crinkled as tears gathered in his eyes with all the laughing. He looked so young and beautiful. Wait, what? "Stop! Delete it," She gritted, getting in the bed she tried to snatch his phone with her free hand while holding her pants

She noticed as Daniel slipped away somewhere giving them the privacy to talk. Breathing in deeply she decided to talk to him properly. There were a few things that needed to be discussed. "I want to talk to you," She whispered and his ears perked before he stepped aside. "We can talk in my room," He said before urging her to step ahead of him. Once inside the room, he closed the door behind them as she faced him. She was nervous and scared. And amidst all this, she was scolding herself for melting in his arms like that in the morning. But it was like her body had a mind of its own. Maybe it was the warmth of his body or his scent, she didn't know. "About... About last night, I'm thankful that you saved me." She whispered in a mild tone. "You don't have to thank me, Evelyn. I had to save you no matter what. You might not believe me but you're important to me," His deep voice was thick with emotions and the sincerity in his voice had her lowering her gaze as she inhaled deeply.

Evelyn was tense as a board as she continued to prepare orders. She snuck a glance at him. He was dressed in a waiter's uniform which was too tight on him but he was garnering too much attention. The coffee shop was fully packed and almost all the customers were young girls who were gushing over him as soon as he brought their orders. "I never thought the shop would be fully packed one day," Chris commented, rubbing the nape of his neck as he went to the back room to get an extra change of cash. She was pouring the milk very cautiously to get the perfect heart when all of a sudden she stilled and the puff of hot breath on her ear had her flinching, the girl was about to ruin the coffee when a big calloused hand grabbed her small one and steadied it. "Table three is waiting for their orders, ma'am," He rasped and she shivered at how close his words had fallen on her skin. "T... Two minutes," She stuttered and took a step forward to create some distance between them. "Why are you

Evelyn knew what she was doing. Her despair was on one side and rationality on the other. She knew only Axel could keep her safe but she was being stubborn and it could've caused her Chris' life. She didn't want to lose him. He was her friend. He was there when she thought she'd be left all alone. Just as she expected, the news was all over the place about Axel working as a waiter in a coffee shop. At first, no one was believing this before a random picture of him went viral in which he was serving customers. Though Axel had tried to be subtle with casual clothes and bangs. But it seemed like someone had recognized him. In the afternoon he gave his statement to the press that his wife works in that coffee shop. It was her hobby. Her boss needed a hand so he just helped them out for a day. He further said that it was refreshing and he realized how much effort an employee makes, so this miniature work of a few hours had taught him the great importance of hard work. His statement was
