Simon and his flatmate have an interesting dynamic
He rubbed the sleep off his eyes, expecting you to still be sleeping next to him, though all that came to him was the smell of pancakes. So he decided to pull on his mask, this time not forgetting, and walk into the kitchen.
Where you were flipping pancakes with your gaze down and eyes closed. "Morning." Simon grumbled to you, and you simply nodded.
He walked over to the coffee machine, noticing how you were very obviously avoiding his gaze. He cleared his throat while the machine prepped his coffee.
"So. Why were you in my bed...? I'm not mad... just asking." Simon said as he looked towards you, seeing your cheeks brighten was quite a sight infact.
"I didn't know you were coming back so soon." You mumbled as you flipped another pancake. First normal sentence you had said in the past 12h.
"Were you... drunk?" Simon contiued.
Of course you were drunk, you had went out to try to forget about Simon. Obviously it hadn't worked if you ended up sleeping in his bed and sobbing yourself to sleep because he didn't even show light interest in you. Come on! You walked around the house essentially naked, and he didn't even look at you.
But whatever. "A bit." You finally squeezed out. Wincing at the memory of the night.
"And you were in my bed because...?" Simon continued. It was disturbing him why you had been in his bed, if he didn't know any better he would think you were attracted to him... but that's just outrageous... right? Who could love him.... especially... when....-
"I felt sick when I got home... your bedroom was closer." You lied through your teeth.
He hummed and grabbed his coffee, "Your bedroom is next to the front door." He stated and walked back to his room. You finally opened your eyes to stare at him, you were certain he has a stupid smirk on his face.
"Okay, so what if I wanted, to sleep in your bed, I didn't know you were gonna come back home." You spat at him. God, this man had audacity.
"... why would you wanna sleep in my bed? Your bed in completely fine, seems pretty comfortable." Simon said with a puzzled face.
Is this man seriously this stupid?
"Because I might be attracted to you, if you've noticed my several hints! If you don't like me you can just say that, not act stupid-" you grumbled before cutting yourself off. "You know, whatever, why am I even wasting energy on this if you're obviously gay."
Simon had been staring at you wideeyed this whole time what you obviously didn't notice through your rant. But what did wake him from his daze was you calling him gay. "I'm not gay- not that there's anything wrong with that, but i'm not.... I like women." He mumbled.
You sighed. "Yeah? You clearly don't like me though." You said as you turned off the stove and turned around to fully face him. "Every time you come back from your work, I walk around wearing no trousers. What do you think that means? The heating in this apartment in shit, i would not be freezing my ass off unless it was to show it off."
Simon continued to stare at you with a confused expression. "Your ass is nice." He finally said.
You shook your head. "Eat the pancakes." You said, god, this man was impossible. Truly so.
Meanwhile you were busy cursing him put in your head, his head was racing with what he should do... some part of him wanted to push you away, his job was too risky, his personality too rough, his skills... rusty, to say the least...
He didn't wanna disappoint you.
You deserved the best. And he felt as if he was the minimum.
"When I lose my headache I wanna fuck you." You retorted from the bathroom.
(You're very lucky @floatingintheshire, I almost made this angst, but then I decided it was too short)
