Chapter 486 - You want to be mine? (2/2)
He thought it was a mistake since people aren't used to Lyn yet. But sure enough the moment he exited the building, he spotted her from a distance.
”Lyn.”
Lyn turned to him and slowly walked over. ”So, I thought it through and I have to say. I like you Rhys.”
What is it with young girls these days. How can they say the words, 'I love' so easily? Then again, maybe he is just old fashioned. So after four hours this is the conclusion she comes up with? Give him a break, he was so dammed worried.
Rhys pulled her into his arms. ”So you're saying you want to be mine?”
”Yes.”
...
A few days later - Mist Kingdom Main Castle -
”Damn it, quit avoiding me.”
”I'm not avoiding you.” Lyn pointed to the long stack of doc.u.ments. ”As you can see I've been working this whole time.”
”Aren't you being too cold? You're the one who confessed to me.”
At that comment Lyn put the doc.u.ments down and walked over to him. He immediately pulled her onto the ground.
”I've been really frustrated not seeing you after that day. I won't let you escape.”
Lyn sighed. ”You're so unpleasant.”
”Lyn...”
She ran her hands through his hair. ”What are we doing?”
His gaze dimmed. ”You can't fool me. You're avoiding me because you overheard something after you confessed to me right? What did those people tell you?”
After Lyn confessed, he had to return for his belongings. It was awkward on the way in since people kept looking. He didn't get very far since Melissa stood at the edge of the stairwell with his stuff. She simply gave him the usual goodbye greeting and said. 'Don't forget our promise.'
When he returned outside, Rhys noticed that something was wrong with Lyn. The owner of the establishment was walking away from her. ”Did they tell you anything weird? Tell me right now.”
”The festival.” Lyn muttered. ”They told me about the promise you made her.”
”...”
”I thought I would stay out of your way until then. I apologize if you thought I was avoiding you intentionally.”
Rhys sighed when he heard those words from her. He figured it was something stupid like that.
”I thought you were going to kiss me.”
”I was until you looked like you were battling against something.”
Lyn pouted and his lips curve to a smile. What a cute little thing. Rhys brought his lips to hers. ”You want a kiss?”
...
”Say Lyn, can I bring you out tonight?”
”Tonight?”
”Yeah.”
”Mmm, sorry. I have to attend a ball with Allen.”
”I see.”
Lyn played with his hair. ”Is it important? I could cancel and go with you.”
Rhys shook his head. ”It's fine.” He wanted to bring her along to reassure himself. But if she is busy he won't bother her. He brushed his lips on her forehead and gave her a gentle kiss. ”You okay today?”
”Mm, I think I'm getting used to it.”
'Is that okay?'
Used to it huh? Rhys shifted their positions so he was on top again, he placed kisses down her neck again.
”Nnngh.... Rhys.”
'Such cute sounds.' Lyn really knows how to get him worked up. What will happen when he actually touches her? He is looking forward to finding out.
