Chapter 281 - I really dont know (2/2)
But even then, for her, those things didn't stir her heart. Lyn just assumed that things were supposed to be like that naturally. Since she is his fiance, Lyn assumed that he had to act that way; otherwise, people would start rumors about him.
Her thoughts broke off when Kazuya brushed his hands on her cheek. ”I don't know how to feel when you're thinking about another guy.”
”You don't have to get so jealous,” she mumbled. ”Right now, I'm here with you.”
Kazuya smiled, ”I wonder if that is enough to reassure me.”
Lyn sighed, ”What else do you want me to do?”
At that comment, the remaining distance between her and Kazuya vanished. Lyn could feel his face so close to hers; she could feel his breath, his warmth lingering against her lips. ”I think you have the wrong idea about me, Lyn. I'm really not as kind as you think I am.”
”If you're trying to scare me away, it won't work.”
”I won't do such a thing. I just want you to understand that I am not a good person. Your eldest brother, your second brother, the General, and Pupillam all have good reasons why you ought to be wary of me.”
”Even if you're like that, it doesn't matter to me.”
Kazuya laughed, ”Your really something.” After kissing her forehead, he lets her go and walked over to the other couch and picked up a cup. Lyn noticed the color of the cup and frowned. He's drinking in front of her now, is he that stressed out? Then again, before she came here he was doing work.
For a split moment, Lyn just stood there frozen and watched him take out a book. Gradually, she made her way over and sat on the couch too.
”You know, they say that the distance you sit away from the person usually shows the degree of likeness,” he said rather calmly. After that comment, Lyn moved a bit closer.
”Your nervous, aren't you?”
Lyn whipped her head to look over at him, and she knew he could see she was blushing.
”Well, no matter. Come closer, Lyn.”
The second he said those words, he pulled her arm and pulled her into arms. ”See? This is much better.
Due to the closeness, Lyn knew that Kazuya could feel her heartbeat. Ah, she meant what she said earlier. Kazuya suddenly wrapped his arms around her and buried his face in her neck.
”What are you?”
”Ssh don't say anything,” he murmured. ” Me too. I was relieved you know when you said you were happy that I said something like that to you. It just proves your feelings right there. Do you remember what old man said to us before? About us being strangely connected to each other by fate?”
Ah, 'You two are connected by the red string of fate.”
”To me, at the time, I didn't believe in fate at all. I couldn't see it. It was something that wasn't part of my world at all. Regardless of that, somehow when I met you that started to change, it became part of my reality. I understood straight afterward that everything in my small world became only parts of you. I was glad when you said you'd go out with me. Because I really have always loved you. Though this entire time, I'll admit I've been denying it and saying crap like she's too far from my reach. Even now, I do still think that when I see you with guys other than me. However, along the way, I began to realize that I couldn't do it anymore. Screw the rules I just want to tell you.”
T--tell her what? Lyn thought she could keep calm around Kazuya. But right now he is saying some pretty outrageous sounding things.
