Chapter My favourite meal is you

I drove back to the mansion with a gloomy look, I walked inside, it was big and empty, my mother will be home late today, she texted me saying there were businesses she has to attend to.

I walked over to the kitchen, taking a bottle of water from the fridge. I drowned it.

My thoughts turned back to Ivana walking away and I sighed. "She loves practice more than she loves me." I sighed.

I glanced down at my wristwatch, she must still be practising right now, I have no idea when she would be done either and I didn’t check on her before returning home, she didn’t want me to be clingy, perhaps that's a bad sign of dating.

I walked back to the living room and turned on the music show. I rarely watch any show, but I have no one to call right now and don't have anything fun to see on my phone and in order not to call Ivana I have to keep it far from me.

The show was lovely but I can't stop thinking of Ivana even when I enjoy the music they sang.

Honestly, this Anniversary party didn't catch my attention so much, what was more important was Ivana, but she had a dream to stand on stage, that was more important.

I ran my hand through my forehead as I glanced up at the wall clock. It was past seven in the evening, it was getting late and she still wasn't back.

I got up to my feet, I know she doesn't want me to act clingy, but she was getting me worried.

I took my phone and dialled her number but it couldn’t connect, now that was my call. I grabbed my coat and car keys as I turned to head out back to school but the moment I stepped out of the mansion I saw a car drive into the driveway and I stopped to see who it was.

The headlight was on and I couldn't make out the person who was in the car. My mother would drive into the parking lot and the car didn't look like hers nor did it look like Hinn Carlos' car.

I watched Ivana step out of the car, the headlight was turned off and I looked at the driver’s side of the car, the door opened and Henry stepped out, just seeing him made my eyes darken.

What the heck was he doing with her?

"Robin," Ivana said when she saw me and I walked over to her and she turned to Henry who looked stunned and I don’t know why he was this way but I crossed my hand over Ivana’s shoulder and kissed her forehead even when I was angry at her.

"You are home, I was worried," I said softly before turning my eyes to look at Henry. "Thank you for taking her here."

"You both live together?" Henry raised his brows and just hearing that made me smirk.

I thought I had made it clear to him before now, perhaps he didn't get it at that time.

"Yes, I have been staying with Robin’s family for a while now," Ivana told him and I didn’t like how relaxed she was with this guy. I don't feel threatened by him staying with Ivana but I feel uneasy since I know he likes her.

"Oh, I have no idea, so, you two date and also live together?"

"Yes, just as you can see," I said these words in a sharp tone since he knew he should just leave already. "Baby, let's go in, I prepared dinner already," I told Ivana sweetly.

"Thank you for the ride Henry, good night," Ivana told him as I took her inside not after looking back to see Henry's face fall.

I am sure he had realised that he can't get into her heart since I occupy there right now.

As soon as I shut the door Ivana pulled away from me and I turned to her tucking my hand into my trouser pocket.

"I have nothing to do with Henry, why do you always act up when you see him?" Ivana asked me and I just knew the perfect answer to give to her.

"Just as you don't like me being with other girls like Katherine and Ava," I didn’t mean to mention her name either but I wanted her to get the message. "That's the same way I don't like you being with Henry, it's so obvious he likes you and who knows what he would do or say to you."

Ivana scoffed at my words and I don't know why she doesn't understand what I mean. "You are scared he would act like you and brush his lips against my lips right?" She raised my brows and I knew she was trying to provoke me.

"I will kill him if he does that." I gnashed my teeth and I watched her pupils grow wide, was she expecting me to say I will hug him? "You are my girlfriend now Ivana, all part of your body belongs to me just as mine belongs to you, so guard it with care," I saw how shocked she looked when I said this, but that was the absolute truth.

"I just hope Henry gets the message and back off from you." I walked into the living room, I was at ease now at the very least she was okay and back home safely.

Ivana walked into the living room and turned to me. "Robin," I looked at her, staring at her as she looked away from my eyes. "I thought you said you prepared dinner, I can't perceive any aroma coming from the kitchen." She points in the direction of the kitchen.

"I lied about that." I sat on the sofa and she frowned at me.

"You are unbelievable!" She walked close to me. "Why would you lie about something like that?" She rubs her stomach.

"Are you hungry?" I asked her.

"Yes, I am, I ate a light breakfast and couldn't even eat lunch..."

"I was about to take you out for lunch but got turned down, so, it's not my fault, whereas I am also hungry," I told her as I folded my arms across my chest and she groaned at me, it was good to get her angry once in a while.

"Then let's order take out." She took out her phone, as if she knew my mother would be home late and she can't cook, whereas my mom would be too exhausted to prepare dinner for us and I didn’t want to make dinner since I was not in the mood and it could ruin the meal.

She placed her order before looking at me. "It will be delivered soon." She said to me before turning. "I should change."

She was about to leave but I quickly held her hand and pulled her, making her sit on my lap as she looked at my face with that startled gaze.

"What now?"

"While we wait for the take out, how about I eat something else right now..." I looked into her confused gaze.

"What are you talking about?" She pouted her lips and my eyes flickered down to her lips.

"I want to eat my new favourite meal." I leaned in and kissed her lips softly, I watched her eyes widened but caressing her face as I deepened the kiss made her close her eyes and I closed mine too as I sucked, bite and thrust my tongue kissing her deeply.

I can't describe where my other hand made their ways to, all I knew was I was enjoying this, her warmth, her kiss, and she looped her hand around my neck as we let our desire for each other be our rhythm.
