Chapter 504 - I need to make a move (1/2)
”Everybody is here.”
Rhys emerges through the bedroom door and opens the shawl of the bed.
”Lyn, how about showing yourself at the very least?”
”No. ” She does want to see and speak with her mother. But she has nothing else left to say to the other two. ”Rather than that, let's talk. Preparations are almost complete aren't they? ”
Although it was something that only came to her attention last night, and by accident too. For once her bad waking up habits became useful, since she saw the letters on Rhys desk.
”Yeah.”
”So how come you can behave so normally?”
If this keeps up any longer then it won't be long before they are separated. Now she understood why he took her on this trip, this maybe the last time they meet for a while.
To think she allowed him to trick her again. If she knew this would happen, she would not have agreed to it.
Sumire glared harshly but only for a moment. When their eyes met, she found his soft gaze on hers. Sumire extended her hand out and he took it. The sensation of his fingers against her hands and she pulled him back on to the bed with her
She snuggled up against him.
”Hey Lyn, your family are here.”
”Leave them. Kazuya must still be nearby, he can keep them occupied. ”She couldn't mistake the loud voice that woke her up. Rhys nodded and pulled her closer. ”I didn't like it. I woke up without you beside me, and was afraid.”
It was a brief fear, it sent shivers down her spine. It made her tremble. No matter how many layers she wrapped around her, the cold did not disappear.
”Sorry. I had to speak to someone.”
From a woman. That woman who tried to sleep with him. She doesn't know who that person is, and she will not attempt to find out either. If it were in the past, she would have certainly done so. But it is different now. As his girlfriend she needs to act mature.
”I love you Rhys.”
He seemed surprised at her sudden declaration. Indeed there's nothing particular romantic about this moment, and she's the one who always spoke about that stuff.
But his gaze remained kind. ”You're so cute in the morning, do you want to be spoiled?” Rhys said, kissing her forehead gently.
”Does being spoiled mean you kissing me a lot?”
A chuckle escapes Yuhi's lips. ”Well, there are plenty other ways to spoil you. But you've always liked kissing huh Lyn?”
”Right now, I only want to cuddle. ”
”Hmm, I see.”
It still feels strange, being close like this. They have not known each other for long and their relationship was a mess at the start.
There is no longer anything 'innocent' and 'pure' about their relationship. Occasionally she felt embarrassed about his words and actions. But even then, she gets lost in the passion and desire of him holding her.
