I didn't want him finding out that I was hiding something which could possibly send Maeve and Greg to their graves.
Neither did I want him to think that I was over what he did.
I held my towel tighter making the towel on my head fall flat to my feet.
I took a step away from where I was standing as he eyed me intensely seeming to give out no emotion at all.
"Why were you showering at three in the morning?" He asked in his deep accented voice.
For goodness sake talk nicely for once.
"Uumm it felt hot in here so I umm decided to take umm a shower." I said trying to hide the real reason but it surely wasn't working.
I knew that he could tell I was lying.
"Then why was you fan on and your air conditioner at the ending degree.
Your room was man freezing that I had to switch off the air conditioner but nothing changed the coldness in here
so you are telling me that you felt hot in a freezing room?" He asked arching one eyebrow as I eyed the raised eyebrow annoyingly.
That was one of the thing that could get on my last nerve because it was just too weird and non understandable.
"None of your business.
Now if you dont mind I need to dress up" I said dropping the towel.
I really did not give a fuck that he was in the room.
"Is this about your nightmares again Aviva?" He asked his voice becoming somehow soft at the end.
I didn't answer to his question.
I just felt my body starting to shake for no reason.
How dare he!
After one year of turturing me with insults.
Why care!
I was fuming.
"Come lay down Aviva you need to rest." He said gently leading me to the inviting bed as he slid down next to me.
"Dont touch me!" I said gritting my teeth.

When I woke up the first thing I noticed was the light sun kissed arm on my chest holding me tighter to their body.
I tilted my head looking for what was going on and that was when all the colour in my face drained.
My towel was down on the floor like three feet away from the bed.
I was butt naked in Mendel's arms while he slept like he had no care for the word his hair going in every direction.
Was it really bad that I wanted to run my hand in the messy looking hair that he had.
How did that happen.
How did my towel fly that far.
How did I even end up in bed with him.
I quickly removed his arm causing me to fall butt flat on the floor.
I wasn't fast enough to stand or take the towel because before I could even reach the towel to cover my naked my body he was wide awake looking at me with amusement filling his eyes.
How could he find this situation amusing.
He saw me naked again for goodness sake.
But this time I did not care.
"You know I have seen you naked before Aviva so what exactly are you trying to hide" he asked with a smirk on his face.
"I ain't hidding shit." I said rolling my eyes then walked to the bathroom.
I sighed looking in the mirror seeing how horrible I really looked.
I knew that my hair was dry because it wouldn't look that crazy while it was still wet.
I really did forget to wrap it up.
Did he see me like this.
"Aviva we have a brunch to attend in twenty minutes wear normally it is just a friendly brunch with a long time friend" he said loud enough for me to hear and walked out of my room.
Making sure he banged my door for some unknown reasons.
If it was casual lunch then I could wear anything comfortable enough.
I walked to the closet looking for what I could wear since Ellanor filled my closet according to her own fashion and as she said I needed to be a woman that men craved because I was with Jonas and being with Jonas came with a price.
That wasn't just me.
I didn't take advantages of a thing but what I did agree was that I needed to start dressing like a woman.
I walked to the closet and looked at the part of body suits with different colours.
I decided to go for the black transparent one that caught my attention.
To mix it up I took demin ripped shorts and knee length laced up boots from Franz Domlan.
To say I looked nice was understanding but I looked bomb.
I really did.
I combed my hair not in the mood to do anything special so I just threw it in an upper messy closed bun then applied some little makeup.
I was lucky that Ellanor brought more hair bands and hair ties thick enough for my hair.
When I was done
I walked downstairs to Jonas who was patiently waiting for me while typing on his phone.
When he heard me he looked up his eyes widening with something I couldn't read.
"Uumm... How do I look?" I asked for the third time all he did was started at me with his mouth open not uttering a word.
Talk about weird people.
I snapped my fingers Infront of his face seeming to bring him back from his imaginary wonder world.
"Uumm.. what did you say?" He asked composing himself.
Really.
I repeated the same question three times and he wanted me to repeat it for the fourth time.
"You know what never mind aren't we going to be late for this brunch you were talking about?" I asked taking my shoulder bag.
