Chapter 10: My New Life Stye

THIS CAPTER IS IN SAKU'S POINT OF VIEW!!!!

Saku leaned against the kitchen sink and took very deep breaths to calm herself down. She could feel the heat rush to her face... Her mind kept replaying her epic failure that led to her leaning against the very buff Kim Ji-Hoon's chest... To quickly get over the very recent events, Saku busied herself with looking for something to make for dinner

-She looks in his fridge and then glances at a nearby clock

-The clock says that it is half past 12

"Since it is still very early for dinner, I can make something that will take a while to cook..."

-She looked around for more ingrediants

"I'm going to have to get used to this..."

-She washes her hands

-A pot is now boiling for rice

"Well, its going to be very awkward living with Ji-Hoon... but... I still don't understand..."

-Cutting board out

"Why is he helping me?"

-Washing the vegetables

"I'm such a trouble maker for him and here he goes giving me a place to stay and food to eat..."

-Cutting the vegetables

"Tsuyoi was a great help... but even his money couldn't get me out of debt... so how the hell does Kim Ji-Hoon think he can help me?"

-Saku jumps when she feels a furry body bump into her legs

-She lets out a startled laugh and gives a Honjaui a playful shove with her foot

"You scared the living daylights out of me you adorable mutt!!!"

-Honjaui barks at Saku

"Hm... well, you have your dinner already, so go eat... I have to cook"

-Saku pats Honjaui on the head, washes her hands and gets back to cooking

 

After dinner, Saku has cleaned and put the children to bed... Saku is talking to Kim Ji-Hoon about something that popped up during dinner...

-Saku sighs

"I might end up working at the restaurant again... The manager has given me a really good offer that I don't think I should be refusing..."

"Which means you are going to be working late... and so am I..."

-Saku thinks

"I'll still be working at the school... so I can keep the children for a good 3 hours before having to switch to the restaurant... would you be able to handle them for about... another 3-4 hours at the local hangout?"

-Kim Ji-Hoon grimaces

"They caused a rucus last time..."

-Saku growls

"They were tired and bored... I can probably do something for them to keep them entertained, but if they give problems then you can call me at the restaurant... only call me if it is an emergency though... They won't like staying at the restaurant..."

"Well, they don't like staying at the local hangout either..."

-Saku stares at Ji-Hoon

"Well, I can keep them for as long as I can, but I can't supervise them if I work as a waitress and entertainment..."

"Fine then... go take a shower and come sleep..."

-Saku stands and stretches

"So... we are staying in the living room?"

"Yeah, you're on the floor..."

-Kim Ji-Hoon stretches out on the sofa

-Saku scoffs

"Aren't you supposed to stay on the floor?"

-She doesn't wait to see Kim Ji-Hoon's glare and she walks off to the bathroom to wash off

It is late and Saku is knocked out on the floor.She is shivering , using the one blanket she had to spread on the ground. Honjaui silently pads up to Saku and lies down beside Saku. Saku, noticing the extra body heat, shuffles her body over to Honjaui's fluffy body and snuggles close, using his side as a pillow...

Saku is still shivering, even with Honjaui's body heat... so, Honjaui takes matters into his own hands, er, paws... Honjaui gets up slowly and pads over to where Kim Ji-Hoon is sleeping on the sofa...

-Honjaui gently yanks on Kim Ji-Hoon's shirt, quietly whining

-Kim Ji-Hoon groans

"Go 'way Honjaui..."

-Honjaui yanks harder with another whine

"Honjaui... go to sleep..."

-Honjaui let's go of Ji-Hoon's shirt and growls loudly

-Kim Ji-Hoon gets up and stares at Honjaui

"You didn't just growl at me you fluffy mutt..."

-Honjaui growls again

-Ji-Hoon rubs his eyes

"What do you want Honjaui?"

-Honjaui barks and walks over to the shivering Saku Hana... he nudges her and points to the chair

-Kim Ji-Hoon tilts his head 

"What?"

-Honjaui pulls at the end of Saku's blanket

-Ji-Hoon stands up and walks over to Saku's sleeping form... he kneels down next to her

-After observing her shivering form for a few more minutes, he sighs

-Carefully and quietly, Kim Ji-Hoon picks up Saku Hana bridal style and carries her to the sofa

-Setting her down, Ji-Hoon wraps Saku with the blankets and positions her head comfortably on the pillow

"Happy Honjaui?"

-Honjaui rubs his head against Kim Ji-Hoon's leg

-With a sigh, Kim Ji-Hoon takes the blanket that Saku was originally using and sits down against the sofa, spreading the blanket over himself

-Honjaui lies down next to Ji-Hoon

Saku wakes up the next morning and realizes that she is sleeping on the couch instead of the floor... she spots Kim Ji-Hoon sleeping, sitting up against the sofa... she smiles when she realizes what he did... She lets out a sigh and lies back down... she gently runs a hand through his hair once and falls back asleep...
