Chapter 337 - Bed scene (1/2)
”Are you ready?”
Diana asked, as excitement coursed through her but she tried her best not to show it.
”Yeah,” Michael nodded.
Today, they were going to have a bed scene. She had not been any more excited.
Even though it was acting, he was going to touch her body, finally. It was meant to be just a kiss scene during Karl's birthday party, but the director changed it to a bed scene.
Diana liked the change, so she didn't even argue with him, but she did well to hide her excitement. When she told Michael, he just nodded.
Strangely, he didn't call to practice the scene as he would usually do. Diana waited but he didn't call, she wondered if he didn't want to practice the bed scene it in case it went out of hand. She had expected him to call.
Shaking off those thoughts checked back on her lines.
”Alright, get ready!” the director shouted to them and Diana exhaled sharply. She had not been more excited about any scene in her entire life.
They just finished the party scene and took a rest, the bed scene was the last scene for the day and normally most casts who didn't have any parts would have left, but strangely, every single person was still around.
Seems it wasn't only her anticipating the bed scene.
”And action!”
The director shouted, and they both got into character.

Karl placed the last set of dishes on the counter and walked back to the living room. His eyes fell on Caroline, who lay passed out on the couch, he had warned her not to drink too much since she didn't have any tolerance to alcohol but she wouldn't listen.
Heaving a sigh, he walked to her on the couch and squatted beside her.
How could one be so pretty?
Karl wondered as he lifted his hands and brushed the hair falling over her face, admiring her with a tender gaze.
A muffled sound escaped her lips as she sucked in her lower lip,
Karl smiled, she was damn cute.
He spent a little while just watching her sleep before he finally tapped her,
”Caroline, Hey, wake up.” He nudged her slightly but she didn't budge.
She was so passed out.
Thinking for a second, he stood up and carried her up from the couch.
Sensing a new body, her hands went around his neck as she nuzzled her face in the crook of his neck.
Karl stiffened.
And against his own will, he felt his body getting hot.
He had tried his best to quench this feeling he had for her, more especially now she had someone she loved.
Although it hurt him that she wasn't with him, he valued her happiness more and if she was happy with that person, then he was.
Shaking off the dirty thoughts in his head, he carried her into the guest room. Walking quietly to the bed, he placed her on the bed and tried to rise but her hands didn't leave his neck.
Karl furrowed his brows and tried to take her hands off but her grip on him became strong.
Suddenly she raised her eyes to look at him.
”Oh… Caroline, you're awake.”
Her eyes were dreamy as she watched his face as though trying to know who it was, a smile broadened her lips when she recognized him.
”Karl?”
”yeah it's me. You were passed out on the couch so I carried you to bed.”
She giggled, sliding down one of her hands around his neck, she touched his lips,
”Karl… ” she murmured.
Karl froze, what was she doing?
He held her hand and brought it down to her side,
”You're drunk, you need to sleep, okay?”
”pft, I'm not drunk.”
Karl blinked but before he could say another word, she leaned closer to him and kissed his lips.
He froze. His heart beat stopping.
What was she doing?
Instantly he jerked away from her.
”What are you doing?”
He asked, shocked, but Caroline didn't look like she did anything wrong.
A pout formed on her lips.
”What's wrong?” she asked, staring at him in surprise.
Karl's eyes turned to her in shock. Was she mistaking him for Jeffery?
”Sleep now, I'll go lock the doors.”
With that he turned and walked out of the room. Karl closed the door and leaned against the door. His eyes closing.
This was the first time she had kissed him and although it was unintentional, it made him happy, but he shouldn't dwell too much on it, it was a mistake and it won't happen again.
Going back to the living room, he shut the doors, after which, he turned off the lights and walked to his room, but just when he was about to open the door, his feet stopped.
In front of him was Caroline, she had taken off her clothes and was putting on a flannel over her lingerie and her eyes were filled with l.u.s.t.
”Caroline… ”
That was the only word he could say before she closed the gap between them and kissed him on his lips, this time she held him tight, prying his lips open with her tongue.
Karl tried to fight it, but damn, he loved this woman, all the suppressed emotions and want, pumped up to the surface and unable to resist, he shut the reasons within him and kissed her back.
