345 She belonged to him... him alone (2/2)

He did not have to wait long for Ryn to stir herself. He smiled as he watched her eyes blinked a few times sleepily. ”Wake up, sleepyhead. Let's go home.”

Ryn rubbed her eyes with one head as she nodded dumbly. She let him take the bag off her and stood up. ”Bye, everyone.”

Harry was shocked still. He did not react until the two of them leaving the building. Once he realized the two were no longer there, he lowered his head and looked at his fists. Why he couldn't move just now? Why didn't he stop her from leaving? What did she take that man for? Were they already together? But… it did not seem like they were lovers. Even though there was chemistry between Ryn and that man when moving but Harry did not believe both of them were boyfriend and girlfriend. They could not be. If they do… what about him, then?

His shoulders dropped. He could not think more. If he did, he would reach a conclusion that he did not like. No. He would not think about those two.

*~*~*~*

Jeremy did not speak when they got into the car. He simply watched as Ryn adjusted her seating after she put on the safety belt, preparing to continue her sleep. Pursing his lips, he turned to focus on starting the engine and driving the car away. But his heart was still uneasy. He could still remember how close that man was to his Ryn and the way the man looking at him when he realized who he was.

It was several kilometres away from the modelling agency before he turned back to look at the sleeping Ryn. He could not accept the fact that his Ryn was close to another man. She should only be close to him and him alone. There was nothing he could not provide for her. She could ask him for anything and he would give her without question. Why did she need to have another male friend?

Jeremy did not know about her friends on the island or he would get even angrier. No one knew about the boys except for her parents.

He sighed. It seemed like he had so many things to discuss with Ryn. He needed to make her understand that she belonged to him and she must not get too close to any man because she already has him by her side.

He gripped the steering and tried not to think much. Besides, she was deep in her sleep and he did not want to disturb her resting time.

Instead of going straight home, he went through a drive-through to get them dinner. He did not plan to bring her to any restaurant, seeing how exhausted she was. They could just have dinner at home and then, he would coax her to spend the night in his arms. It has been so long for them to spend the night together in the same bed. He missed hugging her to sleep. He did not ask her what she wanted. He simply ordered twice the menu and put the paper bag to the back. Then, he continued the journey toward home.

Instead of going to his place like he wanted, he stopped at her apartment. It was quite hard when she still refused to reveal their relationship to the world. He could not ask her to move into his place so they could cohabit together. He shook his head to clear his mind and pasted a charming smile. And then, he woke her up with a kiss.

She stirred and blinked her eyes sleepily. A smile curled on her face when she realized who was the person who kept kissing her. ”You,” she whispered.

”Yes, me,” he acknowledged with a leer.

”Have we arrived?” she asked. She forgot to scold him for kissing her in the public again. She stretched her arms and yawned. ”What time is it now?”

”Almost 6.30 p.m.” he nodded at the clock. He still did not shut off the engine so the number was still clear to their eyes.

”Was the traffic bad?” she asked absentmindedly. Usually, it would not take that long to reach home from the modelling agency unless the traffic was bad.

”Not really. I bought us dinner,” he pointed at the food behind.

”No wonder I smell something good. Let's go,” she took her bag and opened the door.

Seeing how she did not tell him off for deciding for himself and she did not mind of him following into her home, he smiled widely and shut off the engine. He quickly grabbed their food and followed him to the elevator. Now, he only needed to push a little bit more before they could spend the night together… in bed.
