Deal with the Devil
I returned with his clothes to find Hayden standing completely naked in the middle of my living room. My eyes blinked a couple of times at the sight that I was being treated to. Hayden really likes to walk around naked in his house. I closed my eyes and thrusted the clothes in my hand forward towards him.
“Why are you closing your eyes?” Hayden asked with hint of annoyance in his voice.
Isn’t it obvious?
“Why are you…naked…?” I asked with my eyes still closed.
“Why? I’m about to take a bath. You didn’t expect me to take a bath with my clothes on, did you?” Hayden replied a little sarcastically.
That wasn’t what I meant, and he knows it.
“Here are your clothes,” I said, choosing to ignore his sarcastic remarks.
My hands remained stretched out to offer his clothes to him, but Hayden didn’t take them away from my hands.
“Open your eyes, Malissa,” Hayden commanded.
“Umm…it’s ok…” I said, meaning it.
