Chapter 450 - Ten Centimeters Part 9 (1/2)
The sound of the door being slammed open disrupted this silence. Lyn glanced over, and a deep sigh passed her lips. Here comes the other one.
”Rhys.”
Rhys walked over, and she felt his arms wrap around her. ”Hey, are you alright?”
Despite his casual words and his rather bold actions. Lyn noticed something, 'He is trembling.' This person truly cares about her. He can't express his feelings as openly as Kazuya. But there is no doubt that he cares for her. Lyn leaned into his hold, and Rhys eyes widened.
”Come back with me?” Rhys asked. It was a simple question, but Lyn saw the look in his eyes.
Lyn nodded. ”I will.”
”Hold on--” Allen was about to protest.
Ralph chuckled. ”Well, indeed. If Rhys takes care of her, then we should have no more problems.”
Rhys clicked his tongue, clearly annoyed. ”And exactly where have you been hiding, master?”
”Oh my,” Ralph said. ”I thought you said you wouldn't call me that anymore.”
”The two of us need to talk. So don't you dare disappear.”
Lyn looked over at Rhys curiously. ”Talk?”
Rhys turned to her and scooped her up in his arms. ”After I take care of Lyn, drop by.”
'Ah, it's something private.' Well, even though Rhys tells her a lot more than Kazuya. Lyn knew he still had to keep secrets. She wonders why. It's okay to close the ten centimeters distance with Rhys. But with Kazuya, she can no longer do so. Even when they were dating, the distance between them…
Her thoughts broke of when Rhys suddenly placed her down. ”Rhys?”
”You have something you want to ask me, don't you?”
”Lately, you look a bit tired… And you're a bit distance too.”
Rhys eyes widened, but he chuckled. He brought his lips to her ear and started licking.
”Unngh.” A strange sound escaped her lips as Rhys continued his strange actions.
”Do you want me to pay more attention to you?”
Lyn lightly pulled away from him, her cheeks slightly red. ”Don't do that.”
”My bad.” Rhys nodded. ”I know we're not anything yet and that you're using me. But can you at least think about it properly? I am serious.”
”I know.”
But this is very difficult for her, all of this. Rhys kissed her lips lightly. ”Let me take you back. Stay in my room for a while.”
”Eh?”
”We have to make the act good, right?”
”Aren't you taking advantage of this too much?”
Rhys cupped her cheeks. ”I can't?”
”Well,” Lyn looked down. She doesn't know what to do about a man who is so direct with his feelings. It's very unusual. ”I guess you can.”
He nodded. ”I thought you would say that. Let's go back.”
When she saw how impatient he was, Lyn could only nod. He picked her up again, and they quietly walked through the hallway. How much longer can she continue this way?
