The Robin Hood Society

Chapter 35 - Day Off

J tried her best but she failed. In the end, she put a pillow in the middle of her queen size bed and lay down on the other side of the bed with her back facing Jacob. She pulled her blanket up till her neck and tried her best to fall asleep.

Jacob woke up with a smile on his lips. Why not? He opened his eyes with that view of J's beautiful face in front of him. He could get used to this. He removed some hair strands that covered her hair revealing her gorgeous face. Her long dark lashes, full pinkish lips. The last time he remembers her lips were pale. But her cheeks were as rosy as ever.

How did he manage to have a good sleep at someone's bed? He doesn't know. He just feels comfortable and more at home in J's apartment than his villa. He wanted to stay longer in bed but it's already eight in the morning. He has to get up and go back to the hospital.

After he's done taking a shower and changed in his usual hospital attire which is a dress shirt, jeans and white coat he saw J still lying in bed. She probably had a hard time falling asleep. He felt a little guilty. But then it's almost nine already, why isn't she awake? Doesn't she have a duty?

He made a call to Lance and found out that today is also J's day off. She usually works 13 days straight then take two days off.

"Cancel all my schedules today." Jacob canceled all his schedules when he found out that J is still on her day off. He wanted to find out what she will do today.

"Copy that." James instantly replied. He already has an idea why Jacob would suddenly cancel all his schedule.

Jacob takes off his dress shirt and changed into a plain white shirt. He went to the kitchen and look for something to cook for breakfast.

J woke up feeling tired probably because of being stiff the whole night. She didn't know how and when did she fell asleep after a couple of twists and turn in the bed.

Hmm... did she just smell pancakes? And bacon? That smells good. She suddenly felt hungry. She looks at the clock and saw that it's almost ten in the morning. Wait. Last night Jacob was beside her. Where could he be? She thinks for a while then rushed over the kitchen.

He saw a masculine man in a white shirt and jeans wearing an apron cooking in her kitchen barefoot. Urgh...what an early morning sight. Damn you, Jacob, how could I hate you forever! J thought to herself.

Jacob was done the cooking and was about to bring the plates in the dining table when he saw J standing in the kitchen door.

"Good morning. Did you sleep well?" Jacob smiled at her.

"Huh! How could I sleep well?" J said sarcastically.

"You'll get used to it," Jacob said then put down the plates in the table. "Let's eat."

J wanted to scream and shout. Ahh...this guy is so unbelievable! Why is he acting so casual while I'm almost like having a heart attack every minute in his presence?

J ignored Jacob the whole breakfast and went to her usual shower routine. She thought that maybe it is best to just ignore him and go with the flow.

She dressed in jeans and a white shirt and sneakers.
