Chapter 107: Routine
Sunday had passed breezily as a day where the both of them were busy with either work or studies and by the time they went to bed, they had just held each other and fell asleep. The following week had gone as it usually went as they both seemed to have built a routine where Jen would wake up with Lucas and make him breakfast before he went to work leaving her ample time to go to school.
They had effortlessly be a part of each others routines and they hadn''t even noticed it.
However, on Wednesday the moment Jen hade back home from the library she hadpletely ignored Lucas and went to his study to do somest minute revision.
Lucas was just finishing with dinner when Jen walked into the house in a rush, haphazardly removing her shoes and carrying her bag upstairs. She paused half way up and went back downstairs to the kitchen and gave him a peck on his lips and rushed back up the stairs towards his study.
Lucas speechlessly looked at her go and chuckled from disbelief. He hadn''t thought that he woulde to see the day where he would be treated as air.
Fortunately he had not gone all out with dinner and used the grilled chicken he made to make sandwiches since he had no hopes for her toe down for dinner.
He had never had a hard time in school as he had good retention. He only needed to listen to lectures and if there was something that was not discussed he just had to read it once.
The only other people who he could say were equally smart were his brothers since Jason only relied on the ss lectures he got in highschool to maintain his grades and James who was also ridiculously smart.
The only other person he had hopes for was Michael who seemed to also be very smart and his diligence especially shone through when he was doing something he was interested in.
He knew he was in university because he was bored and he could have pursued any career he had wanted to pursue, he would have probably been just like him if James had decided to take over Lewis & Co.
Lucas quickly made a te full of sandwiches and cut them up into smaller pieces for better handling before he poured a ss of orange juice and took it to her.
If anyone had told that he would be diligently serving his girlfriend a year ago he would have thought they were insane, but here he was, happily making her something to eat as she studied.
Lucas opened the door to his study and saw Jen looking at a textbook with a frown. Lucas set the tray on the side of the huge desk and walked around to see what was giving her problems.
He saw that it was something that had a lot to do with ounting. He remembered that Jen had previously told him that she did not have a knack for that topic
"Do you need some help?" Lucas asked startling her out of her reverie.
"Can you please?" Jen asked. She was going through a bank reconciliation question and the subject annoyed her to death. Lucas smiled as he lifted her up and sat on thefortable chair before sitting her on hisp. Jen did not care and let him do whatever he wanted to do.
She had been trying to understand and solving questions but without understanding the concepts she would end up understanding one question but when it was slightly tweaked she would be lost once more.
"What''s the problem?" Lucas asked and watched her face frown in contemtion.
"Everything, just teach me everything cause they are all entwined" Jen said in frustration.
"You at least know why you need to reconcile the ounts right?" Lucas asked and smiled when Jen nodded.
Lucas then turned into her tutor and started patiently borating the different concepts and mechanisms involved in detail.
Fortunately Jen quickly picked up on what he was teaching her, she was very good with theory than she was with numbers but Lucas simplified the whole thing for her and after she sessfully solved three questions she happily hugged him and gave him a big kiss.
Lucas was strangely proud of himself and smiled at her when he saw she was happy.
"I would probably understand this better if you were my lecturer. Will you consider changing careers?" Jen asked as she leaned against him.
"To what?" Lucas asked as he slightly lifted his face to look at her.
"To my professor of course" Jen said jokingly with augh.
"Don''t tempt me" Lucas said and pulled her in for a proper kiss. Jen responded enthusiastically holding his face in her hands and unabashedly tangled her tongue with his. Before things got too heated, Lucas separated their lips and looked at Jen with a smile.
"That is how you should be greeting me" Lucas said making Jen smile and nod.
"Alright Mr. Lewis" Jen replied and rested her arms on his shoulders. Lucas found himself pulling her in for another kiss. When they separated, Jen''s lips were slightly swollen from his kisses.
"Eat" Lucas said and pulled the tray of food closer to her.
Jen leaned against him and continued studying while nibbling on the sandwiches he prepared. She kept offering him bites of the sandwiches and by the time she was done he was also rtively full.
He had wrapped his arms around her waist to hold her in ce but as Jen continued studying, she noticed that the weight on her back increased.
When she turned to look, she saw that he had fallen asleep leaning against her. She smiled helplessly and finished up with her revision. An hourter she woke him up prompting him to go sleep first.
Lucas leaned back on his chair and looked at Jen who was still settled on hisp. His legs were feeling slightly numb so he could not stand up immediately, so he watched her arrange the te and ss on the te and take them to the kitchen.
After ten minutes he too stood up and went to his room and fell asleep on his bed. Jen quickly washed the dishes and went to her room to shower before she snuck into Lucas'' room in one of his t-shirts and slipped into his bed.
As if he could sense her presence, he immediately pulled her against his body and wrapped his arms around her while he was still half asleep. Jen rested her head on his bare shoulder and fell asleep almost immediately since she was so warm.
