Bab 31: Book 1 : Chapter 31 Vestimentum Vetus

'An old dress'

October 23rd

The next morning, Leo wasn't by my side. In his place was the heavenly smell of bacon.

Like a possessed zombie I climbed out of the high squishy bed and headed straight for the food.

"How are you feeling Ella?" Leo asked, sensing me the second I entered the kitchen.

"Pretty good..." I replied, noticing a slight bruise on my wrist where Leo had accidentally held me maybe a little too hard last night.

"The aches will wear off with some breakfast," Leo said, handing me a plate with a slice of Greek bread, bacon and eggs.

"I know I've said this before, but you're just very..." I said. "Rough. And by no means is that a bad thing it's just... I'm a beginner and it's very intense. You've gotta go easy on me."

"I'm sorry," he said, kissing me on the head on his way to the table. "I'll be gentle next time."

I smiled and looked down at my breakfast.

"Do you forgive me then?" He asked.

"For what?" I asked.

"... whatever you were mad about," he grumbled.
