Chapter 128 - One Hundred And Twenty-eight :Niklauss Brat (1/2)
Eden's POV
I meant to tease her not strip before her, what even happened? One moment I had the towel on, the next it was on the floor.
Maya screamed, her hands flying to her face as she turned around immediately.
Flustered, I gripped the towel with lightning speed and covered the view. A hot flush started in my neck and worked upward while my heart beat a million miles an hour. I couldn't believe this, I just flashed my Peekaboo at Maya, seriously Eden?
I couldn't tell if she was just agitated or crying cause I could makeout whimpering noises from her.
Well, what's done is done, the only thing left to do was to salvage the rest of my crumpled image.
This time she didn't even dare to turn back even when I entered my walk-in closet and dressed up.
”Alright, you can look now. I'm decent”
But she shook her head, ”How do I know you're not lying ”
I rolled my eyes, ”I'm not sexually deviant Maya ”
”That's rich coming from someone who asked me to watch him dress up moments ago ” She taunted.
”I did say that but that was just to mess with you. ”
”Well congratulations, your wish came to pass ” she attacked me.
”Hey, my towel wouldn't have fallen off if you hadn't hit it ” I defended myself.
”I wouldn't have hit your towel if you hadn't tried to make a silly move on me in the first place ”
”Fine” I sighed, ”Look or not, that's up to you ” the girl was quite difficult to convince.
I watched Maya turn around, her palm was still covering her face. Then she slowly peered between the space in her fingers before she finally glanced up at me.
I gave her a cheeky grin and even pirouetted for her to check me out fully, ”I'm good, not even a wardrobe malfunction is bound to happen ”
A faint flush spread across her features causing my expression to lit up, good to know that she was as affected as I was.
”By the way, what brought you to my room unannounced?” I asked, having a feeling that something must have happened for her to barge into my room like that.
”Yeah, that's right ” Maya hit get head as if chiding herself for forgetting her purpose of coming here, ”It's Isabella ”
Oh, that brat. What did she do this time or was Maya still angry about the face drawing.
”If you're here to ask me for the right to discipline the girl, then you're at the wrong place. Adam talk more Niklaus has never -”
”No that's not it ” She interrupted me.
My brow quirked up in confusion, ”That's not it, then what's it? ”
Maya took a deep breath and said, ”I think Isabella might be down with chickenpox”
For a moment I didn't say anything, just stared hard at her which obviously made her uncomfortable.
”Why are you looking at me that way? Is there something on my face?” The mystified Maya scratched the back of her head awkwardly while checking herself all over for any sign of a disorder.
I burst into laughter, ”That's impossible, Isabella can't have such disease. She's vaccinated and the Spencer's are known for their strong immune system ” came my explanation but she gave me the look.
”Come and confirm it with your eyes then” She suggested, opened my door and walked out without closing it, obviously urging me to follow after her.
I trailed after Maya with a bit of anticipation, it was strange Izzy contacting such an infection; all Spencer kids have a boosted immune system than normal due to the number of resources spent on their health.
We walked into the little girl's room and I watched as Maya stripped Off Isabella's polo, exposing her back invaded by the telltale red blisters.
I checked for her temperature by placing the back of my palm on her forehead and scrunched up my face at the hotness.
”So? ” Maya questioned with an I-told-you-so look.
I gave in, ”Yeah, you're right, she's having the chickenpox infection”
I quickly took out my phone, about to place a call when Maya gave me strange looks
”What are you doing? ” She asked.
”I need them to get the car ready, she has to be taken to the hospital” I answered.
