The room went silent and we looked at each other, none wanting to say it. But I am the first to gag and spit out the very spicy and salty mac and cheese back into the bowl. F*ck. Was I food poisoned?
Xade rubs my back, grabbing a paper towel and dabbing my mouth with it. Xaden who was sitting across us winced and looked sheepish. “I may have added a bit too much salt and pepper.”
Xade shoots him an icy glare and asks him sarcastically. ” You added a bit too much of everything don’t you think?”
Xaden scratches his chin. I’m usually the better cl around J , you and Xade are to be blamed for this turn of events. You two killed my mojo,” he pointed an accusing finger at both Xade and me.
My lips part in disbelief. “How were we the ones-
You two had blessed the countertop. I should have bleached the area before using,” he wiggled his nose, teasing me with a smirk. I turn. instantly red, my cheeks hot and pushed the plate away. “I am not hungry anymore.”
“I’ll order us some pizza,” Xade suggested, still rubbing my back soothingly. Xaden looked between us and snorted.” Should I give you two some privacy?”
Xade stopped rubbing my back and shot him an irritated scowl. “Not that you know anything about privacy Xaden.”
Xaden smirked. “You’re right, I don’t,” he pushed off the stool and

took his plate. Dumping the food in the trash he says. “Order a large pineapple and sausage pizza, extra cheese”
I’m not ordering you shit a*shole,” Kade grumbled, obviously not serious about leaving his brother out of it. Xaden turned around, a mischievous glint in his eyes. “That pizza isn’t for me brother but for V. Heard the pineapple makes the women taste even better down there, you know what I mean,” he wiggled his eyebrows in suggestion.
Xade grabs the fork and flings it at him, Xaden ducks and the fork smacks against the cupboards. Xaden roars in laughter, running off before Xade could fly something else toward him. I buried my face in my hands, groaning. “Oh my God, please kill me now.”
Xade pulls me in his arms, hugging me and chuckling. “I love it when you get shy.”
I move my hands off my face and playfully glared a m. “SI you’re to be blamed for this. You just had to-” I stopped, flushing beet red.
He tugged the huge t shirt he gave me to wear, his eyes flickering down to my lips.” What can I say….Im always hungry when it comes to you.”
I swatted his hand away and got off the stool. “I’m going to order us some pizza.”
Xade licks his lips, grinning as his eyes flashed naughtily. “Are you buying the pineapple? You don’t need it since you already taste like heaven. Don’t order me any, I already have my meal that I intend to have later on.”
Yes, this would be the best time for the floor to open up and swallow me whole.

A loud chilling sound of bones cracking bounces in the air along with a painful grunt sound. Gary’s holding his very broken and bleeding nose. whining in pain. Xade takes a menacing step toward him. ” You so much as look in her direction or say something to her again and you’re dead. Got that p*ssy?”
Gary nodded and turned on his heel, scurrying away. Xade is still seething when he turns to me, his eyes shifting in concern. I now realize that my vision had gotten blurry. “V.” he whispered softly, reaching for me but I backed away and shook my head.
My throat felt like it was closing up. I was trying my best to hold in my tears. I turn around, heading for the kitchen. “Now you see what I had been dealing with the entire day today. I am labeled
