Chapter 8: Settling down.
Sebestian Flitsberg. The man whom I met a few hours ago . The man that pisses me off more than anyone could ever do . The man who doesn't know how to smile , and is a real pain in the ass , was standing in front of me half-naked .
He was wrapped on a towel from the waist. Water dripping from his deal black hair , little water droplets all over his firm chest and light abs.
And he was hot. Very very hot .
WAIT !! WHAT ?
WHAT THE HELL AM I THINKING?
HOW COULD I THINK THAT SEBESTIAN FLITSBERG IS HOT ?
But .... the fact that he is hot stuck into my head from then on .
For a moment I went all silent and still . For some reason I couldn't take my eyes off him . Strangely all I wanted at that moment was to touch him . His little abs that were not so deeply cut like other body builders , his firm chest, his wet black hair - which has become a shade darker , everything. As I was looking at hime with eyes wide open , there was a moment of stillness in there.
As if everything stood still, even the air .
" What are you doing in my room ?" his deep husky male voice boomed into the moment of stillness. His voice shaked a little. Or was I wrong ?
" Uh-- Eh .. I .. I mean t-this is my room . So I ..... The door was open .... I thought.... I-it's my room .... right ? " Wow Lily wow! are you really stammering right now. Don't you know how much fun he'll make out of this ?
Sebestian sighed.
"It's my fault I should have closed the door properly. I lived alone till now so I forgot about it. Anyway your room is the right one. "
" Uh.... oh .. okay."
He started rubbing off the water from his body with another towel that was on the bed.
And God ! That's a scene to see.
My mouth was literally hanging open, accompanied with big eyes .
"What haven't seen a man shirtless before ?"
He smirked.
What ? oh god ! what am I doing.
I quickly arranged myself and said smirking
"As if ! Remember to lock the door next time ."
"Yeah sure " He said with a little smile .
I hurried out of the room as fast as I could. and went straight to the opposite room that was booked for me and closed the door .
Then j breathed . I realised now that o was holding my breath for so long .
But what was that ?
Anyways I shouldn't think about this kind of things now .
Gathering myself up I went to the bathroom too take a shower .
I turned the hot water on and let myself get soaked in it all.
A few places burned. I guess the wound was from the fight with the cops .
My thoughts drifted from one to another and soon I found myself crumbled up like a ball in one corner of the bathtub the shower still running as I cried .
After a few moments I thought now I should get up if I have to help Clary.
Then I dried myself up and went out. I saw a pair of track pants and a grey t-shirt neatly kept on the bed.
I wore them , but they were a little too big for me. Then I smelled something. Delicious, strong and beautiful that made my stomach grumble.
Hurriedly I went down the stairs with out even drying my hair.
The scene downstairs was like this - Sebestian was sitting on the couch reading a news paper , Adam was settling up the table for lunch and Agatha was doing something in the kitchen from where heavenly smell was directly entering my nose .
I went up to Adam and asked " Can I help with something?"
"Oh .. uh .. you can set the plates , oh god ! look at you you haven't even dried your hair , go and do that first ." He said .
" I bet she came down as fast she could because of the smell ." Sebestian said with a smirk .
I rolled my eyes at him .
"Oh wait ! "Saying so he put his newspaper down and came up to me to say
"Open you shirt "
"What ? " I was equally shocked like Adam who stood frozen with the spoon in his hand in mid air .
"What the hell! why are you wearing my shirt ? even my track pants ?" He said with the most dramatic expresion one could ever manage .
Is this man out of his head ?
"Oh Sebestian stop that. She had nothing to wear so I gave her this . Mine are too short for her and I'm not gonna give Adam's to her." Agatha emerged from the kitchen with a bowl full of steaming hot pasta.
And that smelled delicious. It made me forget all about Sebestian .
Agatha put the bowl down on the table and started serving.
"Let me help you ." I offered. She slapped my hand and said .
"Just sit down I'll do it . When was the last time you ate ?"
Yeah right ! when was the last time I ate ?
Two days ago ?
" I guess two days ago ."
" Oh god ! Really ? now sit sit .Eat a lot ."
"Thanks ."
She served a lot on my plate and then on others .
The food that smelled delicious now felt heavenly as it touched my tongue.
" Mmmm it's sooo tasty !" I remarked.
"Is it ? eat a lot ." She was happy to hear her praise.
" I'm gonna miss it " It came out of my mouth accidentally.
Oops! did a mistake.
" ' gonna miss it ' what are you saying where are you going to go ?" Agatha asked shocked .
I put my spoon down and answered her.
" Agatha .. well the thing is. How long am I gonna stay here ? like who knows when things will get better ? And then I should find a place for me . Or it'll be a burden for you all .Right ?"
" Are you really that sense or do you say this kind of things to get attention and sympathy?" Remarked Sebestian.
"I wasn't talking to you ." I said coldly
" That's not the point. Do you think you'll be able to find a new place on your own and be able to keep yourself hidden from the whole police force ?" Sebestian said .
Well that's right thing he said though.
" Exactly. And you are not a burden to us. so I'll not hear another word on this topic . Now eat ."Agatha commented.
" But I -"
"Not a word ."
"Alright ."
After we finished our lunch I was so full that I could barely manage to sit straight.
I was lying on the sofa when Sebestian came up to me and said .
" I need you to give statement on what happened that day and how things turned out to be like that. And everything you did . "
" Oh ... yeah sure let's do that ."
" Oh come one Sebs leave her now . Let her rest up , she went through a very crazy time this two days . She should rest now ro be able to work later." Adam said .
" Oh no it's not a big problem I can manage don't worry ." I said smiling. Because now what was more important is to cath the culprit than me resting.
" Ok then come up to my room I'll take the statement." Sebestian said .
" Hmm."
I followed him up to his room , he opened the door and went inside .
I stood at the entrance thinking of what happened a bit earlier, I was considering the two options of wheather I should go in or not when Sebestian said casually.
"Why are you standing there? come in ."
"Oh yeah sure ."
If he doesn't have any problem so shouldn't I .
He was setting up his laptop for some reason.
"What are you gonna do with that ?" I asked.
" Huh ? Oh .. I need to record the session , so I need this ."
"Oh."
He was busy setting up the laptop , I went up to his book shelf where there were my favourite authors books where.
" Are all this yours?" I asked .
"What ? oh those ..... uh yeah ." There was a bit of amusement in his voice .
"Really? Do you also like this author? You know this person is my favourite and the way he keeps himself secret makes it more thrilling. And also the contents are so good .I just love them !" I couldn't help my eagerness of how much I like the books and the author .
" Really ?" He came up to the shelf and picked up a book inspecting it .
He paused for a moment before replying.
" Do you know who's the real writer ?"
"What you know the Author ?"I exclaimed.
He nodded his head and smiled .
" Oh ... please tell me who it is ?"
" What If I say it's someone you know ?"
"What someone I know ?"
" Yeah ..... do you want to know who it is ?"
" Oh come one tell it already !"
" It's Agatha ."
"WHAT ?? AGATHA REALLY?"
" Yes off course. she's the one ."
" Oh god the world is really small . I'll ask for an autograph from her. "
God that was sooo exciting ti know who the author is .
Sebestian laughed at me and went to work on his laptop .
My eyelids were becoming really heavy . Sleep was inviting herself in my eyes . Tiered I went to the bed and sat down . Sebestian was still working on it , so I said to him.
" Sebestian I'm just resting for a while ...
call me when you are done ." I said
Sebestian just nodes his head .
I lied on my back and my eyes closed itself on it's own .
I could hear the pat-pat sound of Sebestian working on his laptop , it was quite soothing, and like a lullaby. Slowly.. slowly I felt the darkness coming in between the reality and my eyes .
And I welcomed it with much enthusiasm.
