Chapter 160 Let me sleep with you (1/2)
Rachel was confused when she heard what Alex said. At first she thought he must be joking, then she remembered that this was Alex. The guy who was basically the poster boy of seriousness. Obviously he wasn't kidding around. If he wasn't joking, then what did he mean by what he said?
'Live with him? Did the idea of losing me, scare him so much? We haven't even gone on a date yet! Now we're skipping a bunch of steps and heading near the finish line! Does he want to do ecchi things? Is that it? Is that what he wants? Is it really?'
Rachel couldn't understand what was happening, and as her thoughts was going deeper and deeper into uncharted territory, she felt a bit dizzy. Kumiko on the other hand was quick to act. She pushed her confused daughter in front of Alex.
”She's all yours Alex. I hope you treat her well.” Kumiko and her three sons bowed in front of Alex presenting Rachel to him. Rachel who heard what her family members said made her face look redder than before, she practically looked like a tomato.
”What are you guys saying! Why are you giving your one and only daughter away! Even you guys! Aren't brothers suppose to be like, 'We wont hand over our sister to you. First you must beat us in a fight.' or some other cliche like that! How about that deadbeat father, I'm a hundred percent sure he wont allow this!”
Rachel spoke in such a quick manner that it was making some of her words sound weird to those who were listening. The more she spoke the more embarrassed she felt. Alex noticed how red she was getting, and was starting to get worried. He approached Rachel and now stood face to face with her.
Rachel who saw Alex suddenly approach her, tried to take some distance away from him. Yet before she could even move, Alex got a hold of her hand.
”W-w-w-what do you want?! W-w-w-why are you holding my hands?! What's happening! Why did you suddenly got more assertive after fighting?! Did you get hit on the head or something? Huh? Huh? Say something damnit!”
Rachel was getting even more confused as to what was happening. Everything was going way too fast for her. She couldn't comprehend why Alex was being so aggressive now.
Alex on the other hand wasn't listening to Rachel's questioning, he was fully focused on checking her pulse on her wrist.
'Her heart rate is on the rise. Did she get hit by some kind of poison? No that can't be it... Hmm well for now I need to check her temperature first then I'll decide what to do next.'
”Why aren't you talking Alex? Why aren't you answering my questions? Huh? Wait, Wait a minute! Why are you closing in on me? Wai- time out, time out, I'm not ready for this! Wait! Not in front of my family.”
Alex's head was slowly getting closer and closer to Rachel's face. Rachel who was still under a stat of confusion was now focusing on the nearing lips of Alex. kumiko, Joseph, Roland, and Gabby were getting super excited, as they watch. It was great to see that they will be able to witness Rachel's first kiss.
As Alex's head got closer and closer, Rachel gave in and was ready to kiss, but Alex didn't head for her lips. Instead Alex placed his forehead directly against Rachel's forehead.
”It seems like you might have a slight fever. We'll head to my place tomorrow. For now you need to rest immediately. Also you don't need to worry about enemy attacks. I'll be sleeping on the floor in your room just in case something else happens.” Alex carried Rachel who was still confused as to what was happening.
