Chapter 345: Cabin.
Jen got bored after an hour of driving. All she could see was a long stretch of road in front of her and the occasional car passing by from the other lane. Lucas was still very focused on the road and was trying to resist the urge to drive in high speeds like he really wanted to.
There were no speedometers in this stretch of road and just the thought of him being able to drive there at high speeds was exciting enough for him to try to tamp down his urges.
The both of them were able to resist their own urges, but for Jen, she couldn't fall asleep because of the coffee she had earlier so she was wide awake for the whole drive.
"Are we close?" Jen asked after another two and a half hours.
"Mmh, about fifteen minutes away," Lucas answered. Jen had offered to help out but he had turned her down as he felt that he should be the one to drive since he was the one who had arranged the trip in the first place. Jen sighed in relief as she heavily leaned on her car seat.
"Tired?" Lucas asked as he briefly glanced in her direction.
"Not really, I'm just really bored," Jen answered as she looked at the white scenery outside. There were trees, but it seemed that it was very cold outside.
After another ten minutes, they arrived at what seemed to be a cabin-style mansion. Jen glanced at Lucas who was nonchalantly parking the car at the driveway.
"You have a house in the middle of nowhere?" Jen asked once she got over her surprise. Calling it a house was an understatement, but there wasn't any other word she could think of on the spot.
"If that's how you would describe it then yeah, we have a house in the middle of nowhere," Lucas said with an amused smile.
Lucas got out of the car and went to open the front door of the empty house. Jen got out after him and stood behind him while fidgeting as she rubbed her hands together and breathed into them. They were in the middle of what looked to be a forest, and everything was covered in white. From the ground, to the vegetation, to the house itself.
"Welcome," Lucas said and opened the door to the house. He let her go inside first before following her in. The whole floor was made of wood and certain areas were covered rugs.
"There's a fireplace!" Jen said and turned around to show Lucas as if it was not his place. Lucas played along and gave her a tour of the house.
After they finished going around, they went to get their things from the car and arranged them in the house. At least Lucas tried to help but was chased away by Jen and asked to go rest since he had been busy since morning.
Because of this, she ended up taking longer than she had intended to because she did not know where anything was. She didn't unpack everything in their luggage because they were only staying for two days and going back home.
After arranging some of the things they bought on their way to the house in the kitchen, Jen started making a simple dinner. She was also tired from the trip but she couldn't compare to Lucas who woke up to pack up their things and drove for four hours to get to the house. She would feel tired if she kept him busy, even after all that.
After she finished preparing a simple dinner, she went to the room that they were going to be sharing and saw that Lucas was already asleep. Rather than wake him up for dinner, she went to the bathroom and took a shower as well and changed her clothes before climbing on the gigantic bed to wake him up.
"Lucas," Jen called him softly, but as she expected, she did not receive a response from him. She called him again a bit louder, and she thought he was going to wake up, but instead of waking up, he actually shifted positions, so he was more comfortable.
Jen gently shook his shoulder to wake up. She had forgotten how difficult it had been to wake him up since he had recently asked her not to wake him up in the morning as he felt like he was tiring her out by doing so. So he always pushed himself to wake up on time. There were a few times he was late, but nothing too drastic since his boss was his father, anyway.
Jen who was still trying to wake Lucas up felt him grab her wrist before being pulled by a force that caused her to fall over him.
"You need to wake up Lucas," Jen whined as she felt him resume their normal sleeping position. She did not want to sleep. She had no intentions of sleeping while she was so hungry.
"Fine, I'll just go have dinner first before I join you. I'm too hungry to sleep," Jen said and pulled away from him, causing him to finally open his eyes.
"You cooked already?" Lucas as he closed his eyes again and covered his face with his hand.
"I did, so let's go eat," Jen answered, encouraging him to get out of bed now that he was awake.
"You should have called me to help, you must be exhausted," Lucas said and sat down on the bed. The blanket that was partially covering him sliding down to his lap.
"Get dressed first then come down for dinner," Jen said as she tried to avoid looking at his torso. Before Lucas could say anything, she had already fled the scene. She kept reminding herself that they were both too tired and lamenting how being with Lucas has turned her into a pervert.
