Secretly Married

18

Zanaya's POV

"This should be okay, right?" I told to myself after checking my reflection on the mirror.

I just took a bath and the fact that my husband was waiting outside isn't helping.

I was wearing my usual sleeping attire: a loose shirt and shorts underneath. I mean, I should be acting normal under these circumstances, right?

I will die in embarrassment if I went out of the bathroom in a very seductive outfit.

This wasn't the case when we just got married. We hated each other's guts and I cringed after remembering how I asked him to sleep on the couch that night.

He didn't even bother lowering down his voice when he cursed and I was damn sure he wanted me to hear.

Realizing that this will be technically our first night as a couple, I felt a big lump on my throat.

I don't know what to do or how to act especially that we're married.

"Oh my God." I bit my fingers as I pace back and forth inside the bathroom.

What should I do?  Should I just lay down on the bed and wait for him? But that would be weird.

Should I ask him to sleep on the couch again?  But I was sure his back will hurt like last time.

Should I sleep with Ji Hyun?  But that would be weird either.

Plus, Mom and Dad will definitely ask some questions.

"Arggggghhh!" I grunt as I mess my hair.

My eyes snapped to the direction of the door when I heard a knock.

"Zaya, are you done?" he asked softly.

I was sure he had been waiting for a long time outside because I can make out his silhouette outside.

Of course, he hadn't taken a shower yet.

"I'm, ahmm, I'm coming out." I puffed.

"Whatever," I told myself as I opened the door, getting startled after realizing how close his face is to mine since he's leaning just right outside.

"Ahm, you can-you---"

Shit.

My face flushed as I saw him smirk.

"Hmmm?" he said as his finger brushed one side of my face sending a tingling sensation through my body.

What the hell?

"You-ahhm, go shower!" I told him as I pushed him a little and run all the way to the other side of the room.

I closed my eyes as I heard him chuckle before he enters the bathroom.

What am I suppose to do with him?

My hands landed on my chest.

Calm down, missy. He's just your husband. No big deal. I told to myself.

And then my eyes landed on his bag opened at the top of my bed.

I should be preparing his things, right?

Well, that should be the right thing to do since I'm his wife.

I was contemplating if I would be preparing his clothes or not since I don't know if he's okay with me meddling with his stuff.

"Ah, whatever. What can he do anyway?" I told to myself as I move closer to his bag and decided to pull out his things.

"Let's see." I unzipped his bag and pulled out his clothes so I can put them in the closet in the meantime.

"He really has a good fashion sense, huh," I said to myself as I pulled out his pants and shirts.

"Oh God!" I closed my eyes as I saw his briefs and boxers at the bottom part of his bag but I was startled upon seeing one particular cloth.

I pulled it out scanning it carefully.

In no time, I started giggling after I realize that I was actually holding a red boxer with iron man prints.

"Zaya, do you have an ex-" the door from the restroom swung open and he stopped midway at the sight of me holding his ironman boxer like it was some dirty clothing.

He immediately went and grabbed it from my hands and I can't help but laugh.

"Really?  Ironman?  Are you Grey or what?" I teased him and he looked damn cute when his cheeks started blushing.

"I swear I'm going to kill that kid," I heard him whispered.

I covered my face as I can't stop laughing.

"Hey, stop laughing. It wasn't me who put the clothes in the bag. Grey must have put it in." he said his voice getting a little impatient and I turned to look at him and I laughed hysterically as I see him pouting, his cheeks still tomato red.

"Where are the towels?" he asked seriously and I pointed at the lower shelve, still laughing.

I was clutching my stomach when he rolled his eyes and went to grab a towel before getting back inside the bathroom.

Was I too mean for laughing so hard?

I swear he looked really so cute, I wanted to pinch his cheeks.

He really is a mochi.

I was wiping the tears at the corner of my eyes when I heard my phone ringing.

My feet moved slowly towards the side table where my phone was resting.

I checked who was it and a smile escaped at the corner of my lips after realizing that it was Tokyo video calling me.

These girls are clingy sometimes.

"You guys are missing me this early?" I cooed as I answer the video call, smiling to my girls on the screen.

I knew Tokyo just came back from Thailand while Max and California just stayed in the dorm. They just visited their family for the holidays.

"Zaya!!!!!" Tokyo greeted me with too much cutesy voice and I grinned at the sight of Max and Cali covering her mouth.

"You really are noisy, Tokie." Max rolled her eyes.

"By the way, how's your family?" California smiled at me.

"They're good!" I said a little too excited. "And Ji Hyun had gotten taller. She looks really so adorable!" I cooed on my natural sweet voice.

"I should have come with you." Max pouted.

"I told you that before but you said you wanted to watch the fireworks in river." Cali rolled her eyes.

I chuckled at how they diss each other.

To be honest, we don't really have the same interests most of the times but we just seemed to really click with each other.

We don't judge whatever one wanted but instead, we tend to support them all the way.

I guess it's actually our differences that make us be a better team. We balance each other.

"Oh, I almost forgot," Cali exclaimed. "Your flight back had been rescheduled to the day after tomorrow so that means you only have one day to stay at home." she looked sad.

"Oh, right." Tokyo clapped her hands together. "That's one of the reasons why we actually contacted you. We have a change of schedule."

"Sorry, you have to cut your vacation short." Max grimaced.

I pouted.

I'm a little sad but that's okay. At least I was able to spend time with my family for three days.

"I'm okay. Don't worry about me." I tried to smile at them.

I was so busy chatting with my girls that Seth being inside the bathroom slipped my mind.

"Ohh!"

"Ahhhhh!!!"

I was startled when I heard the girls scream while they cover each other's eyes.

"Hey, why?" I asked in a panic, my fingers landing on my lips, a habit I just really can't get rid of.

"Shit."

My eyes went wide open after I heard someone curse behind me and I automatically turn which I'm not sure I am regretting that I did or not.

Because standing behind me is a half-naked demi-god with just a towel on his torso, drops of water still dripping on his body.

"What.the.f----" I said in a trance but before I can even finish, Seth cut me off.

"Language, my lady." his eyes squinted as he moved away from the vision of my camera's phone.

"And you might wanna hold that phone properly unless you'd like your friends to see me like this," he added, his smirk still visible on his very handsome face.

And then my eyes landed on his abs making me almost choke on my saliva.

What the actual f**k. I said, this time, on my mind so Seth won't hear me.

I gulped as my eyes unable to refrain from appreciating his wonderful body.

I knew it. He still has those abs as he had during his Awards performance.

Yep. I watched it. IN REPLAY.

And then I saw him placing both of his hands on his hips.

"You liking what you see?" he said a little amused which seemed to get me back from that trance.

I grunt internally.

Great, Zanaya. You just really can't keep it to yourself, huh?

And then I remember the bigger problem that I have now.

My eyes landed back to my phone screen where three pairs of orbits staring at me expectantly.

"You never told us that you have your boyfriend with you." Cali started.

"Yup!  And inside your room." Max added.

"On just your towel." Tokyo Sethed in.

I bite the bottom of my lips.

How do I explain this situation?

"Ahm,," I started, unable to think of what to say.

"Zip it." Cali cut me off. "Spill the beans once you're home. In the meantime, just enjoy being together. We know you were upset these past few days." she said meaningfully.

"That's right!" Cali said excitedly, clapping her hands.

"We'll cut this call now.  Send me a message later!" Max exclaimed.

"By the way, don't do things we wouldn't do okay?" Cali added and I covered my face in embarrassment.

"Yah!!!!" I grunted.

"Or use protection?" At that, Max smacked Tokyo's shoulder.

"Yah!  Where do you hear those kinds of words," Max exclaimed and I laughed a little.

My girls are really weird.

"Goodbye, Zaya! We love you!"

"Lovelots!"

"Mwuah!"

"Enjoy!"

"Wait!" I tried to stop them. They can't cut this call at this time.

I don't know how I will be facing Seth after he caught me ogling at his goodies.

"Bye Seth!" they also screamed and before I can even respond, the video ended making my eyes stay wide open.

A long sigh escaped my lips.

My back felt so stiff and I don't think I'm ready to look back in case Seth is still only on his towels.

Then I heard him chuckle.

"I'm wearing my clothes now. You can now look," he said and I was so damn sure his voice was teasing me.

Shoot. Can someone kill me now?
