It was an ordinary weekend day when you finally had time for yourself to relax and rest. That's why you had the right to be dissatisfied when, while you were doing self-treat for yourself, someone started knocking on your door.

However, when you approached them and looked through the peephole, you didn't see anyone. Eh, neighborhood kids were probably playing pranks.

You were about to leave the entrance when the knocking sounded again. Another peek through the viewfinder - still no one in sight. Confused, you opened the door and that was all it took for a hand to grab your arm and pull, dragging you out of the house.

Before you could react, you were already in someone's arms. Someone's. Oooh no, you knew that smell of hibiscus.

"Hey babe, did you miss me?" The hoarse purr you are equally familiar with. And when you looked up, the same green eyes you knew so well. Maverick. Your ex whom you broke up with a year ago when he beat up your workmate out of jealousy. Shit, what was he doing here after all this time?

"Aww, where does that frown come from? Come on, give me smile, my pretty kitty~" Maverick obviously didn't care about your annoyance at the sight of him, because he continued to raise your blood pressure by tickling you under your chin with his index finger.

"You're probably wondering why I came here. You know, I woke up in an empty bed today and decided I'm fed up with you not being there. So tonight I'm inviting myself to stay with you for the night." The man said this in a casual tone, but something told you he wasn't joking at all.
