"Jack Attack"

Owen's Pov:

Feeling something soft rubbing on my hand, I tried to push it away but it wouldn't budge. I was tired and refused to be awaken by god knows what. Actually that idea is kind of startling , God knows what is rubbing on my hand and would not stop purring? What the actual hell! What can be so furry, soft and stubbornly rubbing on my hand. Pushing the intruder , I woke up fast. Beaming sunlight nearly blinded me. I blinked rapidly till I got used to the light. After so , all started to make sense.

I was not asleep in my manor but in a small house. I already  visited such tiny place twice before. The location looked a bit messy. The same as last time,  cat toys were thrown here and there. A cup of water and some pills were put on the small table beside me. The furry creature you may ask? Is that deep brownish cat of Taytum. Jack , as I remember its name, is now looking at me with big green eyes filled with malice. His claws a bit shown and clearly angered.

"You took his spot." Taytum's statement surprised me even more.

I actually thought that she is still asleep as no voice was made to announce her presence. Turning to face her, I found her standing in her kitchen. Both living-room and kitchen were opened on one another and from where I stood I saw her clearly by her small kitchen island. Sipping some coffee, she was dressed in fading pink t-shirt. The shirt had a yawning kitty on it and few words were written above it  " Take me to bed" they said. Her hair like usual flowed down her back like a dark waterfall and a small smile graced her pale face. Onyx eyes looked right at me and I found a great ease in them. 

"I ended up here?" I asked feeling a  crushing headache that came so suddenly. It made me want to pace about, I couldn't sit or relax anymore. Shutting my eyes tightly I tried to calm such caging pain but I was left helpless. Images of last night flashed in front of me and the name of Briana popped in my head again...What happened? 

"You and a Briana" Taytum answered but her tone was clearly sarcastic

"A Briana?" I questioned again not being able to put yesterday's events in total order

"Yep" she easily replied and I opened my eyes to see her walking my way. From her huge pink  t-shirt my eyes fell on long uncovered legs. Whenever in her house, she never seems to put some shorts on. Her legs are always offered for any watcher. I , myself, did not mind such show and no one will. They were not as thin as Briana's but looked thicker however so smooth and graceful in steps. Her shirt rose a bit , as she moved showing more of her thighs and it amazed me how this shy introverted girl can be so outgoing when it comes to her outfits in front of a basic stranger? 

"What happened?" I uttered trying to shake all my lustful ideas about her.

"You brought a blondie here claiming that you found Bri. I found you sucking her face off and decided to leave you to be someone else's problem however the girl saw me and you started to babble about Bri. I feeling burdened again with your shenanigans decided to just stop you from sleeping with an imaginary Bri. That girl was not even nice." She mocked sitting on the very edge of sofa and crossing her legs. In that process the shirt rose higher and all my ideas were fogged up. It is been a while since I have been with a girl. I couldn't score last night. So all is pilling. 

"Thanks and sorry." I echoed clearing my throat and trying to focus on anything but Taytum and my lustful ideas of her.

"It is okay. I made you some coffee and you better drink those pills. I am going to get ready since Nelly won't leave me alone." she brushed of easily then stood picking up Jack and placed him where she was sat. "Be nice to him will you" she cooed at him as if getting her he purred loud and offered her his tummy to rub it.

"You don't seem that excited about your plans with Nelly." I noted 

"She is bringing all four of her cousins with her and I tend to get socially awkward around strangers." she clarified and a blush erupted coloring her cheeks in a faint pink color.

"An introvert." I replied and she nodded and some stubborn black hairs fell upon her face making her huff at them. Unconsciously , I smiled big regardless of my killer headache. 

"Been one since I started high school. Being invisible is my weapon of choice in that hell hole." she informed her tone turning sorrowful. Her onyx eyes shinned as if she remembered something painful and I stood feeling an overwhelming urge to hug her. 

"I am sorry because you felt like so." I calmly said and she instantly smiled putting on her strong girl mask

"It is all in the past. The now is calling for me and it is not that bad." She concluded with a smile and all I felt is positive energy radiating from her. 

Can humans cure headaches with energy? Because Taytum is actually easing mine!

"I can save you from Nelly." I suddenly offered without much of a thought and saw Taytum's eyes double in size

"How?!" She asked fully surprised 

"Wait." I ordered. Fishing for my phone, I searched the name Nelly and sent her a short message. The reply came three minutes later and it made me beam at it.

"What are you doing ?" Taytum asked coming closer to me and the smell of vanilla became stronger. It filled my lungs and I couldn't but savor it. It calmed me and drew a smile on my face. God only knows what this girl is doing to me.

"Nelly agreed." I smiled saying and showed her my phone. I texted Nelly asking to take Taytum out for breakfast and she agreed. 

"You don't have to do so and Nelly would think that..." Taytum froze before finishing her sentence and her eyes for a second connected with mine making me shiver. This girl, dear god!

"Would think what?" I asked trying to fill the blank spaces left by her

"How did  you get her number?" She asked back ignoring me

"How do you think?" I teased answering her with a question and copying her shocked tone

"She gave it to you. I need to talk to her." Taytum impressively echoed reaching for her own phone.

"Talk to her and enjoy your day with all of her group." I pointed out with a nonchalantly tone 

"I am not going out with you alone either." she pointed back in the same manner

"Why? We are friends, aren't we?" I asked in a surprising hurt tone

"Are we?" she started again 

Without considering my next move, I just caught her hand as she stood close by and pulled her closer. She stumbled , in surprise, hitting my chest. Seeing her losing her balance, my hands moved to her waist wanting to balance her. However, I being hangover stumbled backwards falling on the sofa with her on top of me. The distance between our faces was of inches. I for the first time was able to see the grey specks in her eyes. A gasp echoes from her and my vision suddenly fell upon her full pink lips. I felt her struggling to escape my arms but my body was unwilling to let go and my mind clearly was fazed by such proximity and physical contact.

"We are." I finally uttered as she once again tried to push herself away

"Let go." she yelled hitting my chest 

"I won't until you agree to breakfast." I dared 

"Jack attack him." she yelled at her cat and I couldn't but laugh loud at her command. Her fist tried to serve more punches but at last she started to get tired, I guess.

"Breakfast?" I once again asked seeing how red her cheeks have turned and a wide smile appeared on my face.

"I hate you." she yelled again 

"That's not an answer" I teased seeing her huff and puff

"Okay just let go." she finally agreed and my hands allowed her to escape. Seemingly unfazed she walked to her room saying how stupid I am but I on the other hand  missed her warmth.
