Emmett was taken aback when he saw that, the first thing she asked after waking up was why he had dark spots under his eyes.
It was contrary to his expectations, as he thought that she would be shocked at first and then start shouting, which was a common thing.
Anyways he was happy that she seemed to care about him. But recalling what happened yesterday, his mood dampened.
This woman was born to seduce him. Even in her sleep she didn't seem to have spared him.
Emmett just looked at her, without speaking.
That's when something clicked her, "Why are you sleeping on my bed?"
Jennifer immediately took a protective measure, as she crossed her hands near her chest.
Emmett amusedly stared at her. She was the one who had seduced him in her sleep and now was blaming him.
"Your sleeping habits are really bad. And if I wanted to take advantage of the fact that you were asleep, then don't you think that you would be in this condition. You would have been long eaten cleaned by me."
Jennifer stared at him wide eyes, "Did you just say that my sleeping habits were bad? Are you kidding me? I sleep steadily without moving around a lot and nor do I drool. So how come I have bad sleeping habits."
Jennifer actually blushed at his shameful remark when he said that she would be eaten clean by him.
But she argued to hide the blush. Internally she cursed the man hundred times in her mind, 'Shameless.'
"Does talking in sleep and sleeping like a pig considered having bad sleeping habits, huh?"
"You...you.." Jennifer was fuming, as she pointed at Emmett. But internally she wasn't sure if she had really done this. Before everything that had happened two years back, she really had a bad sleeping habits. But she had tried hard to change herself, which was possible after six months, including her bad sleeping posture.
And now she had her doubts, when Emmett pointed out her old habits. But her self esteem didn't allow her to back down, as she reasoned with him.
"You must have been hallucinating. Why will I sleep like that and what's more is that 'I don't sleep like a pig.'" She spoke the last line through her gritted teeths.
No one would like when they were being compared with a pig.
"I never said you look bad. You looked quite cute. So that makes you sleep like a cute pig."
Emmett didn't know if the redness on her fair cheeks was due to the fact that she was angry or was simply blushing. But he liked her look, that made him want to tease her more.
"Are you changing the topic?" Jennifer narrowed her beautiful blue eyes as she looked at him.
She had clearly asked him about the reason behind the dark spots below his eyes, but they had reached to a new topic, without her getting the answer of her question.
Emmett raised his beautiful eyebrows at this. It was true that he was trying to change the topic as he didn't want to remember what he had gone through yesterday, ever again.
Even though he had answered in a half manner, because she was the reason for him to have his sleep lost.
It had been four days since he had peacefully slept. In the morning he was busy with the inspection and at night he had to look through his company matters as well as some matters related to his- Lucifer's base.
He slept for three hours and though he had a strong body, he needed sleep. The dark spots which were faint for the last three days, were now even clear due to him lacking sleep.
Yesterday he thought that he would be able to sleep peacefully, as the girl he wanted had become his girlfriend and he had also finished a lot of his work.
But who knew that he would have to stay awake for the whole night, to only sleep at the wee hours. Just after sleeping for two hours, he had to wake up due to his ringing phone.
