312 Its Hot In Here (2/2)
”Okay,” he turned off the stove and came to stand before her. ”Anything else, Mademoiselle?”
Darren placed his hands on her knees and pulled them apart as he stepped in between her legs and leaned his head on her shoulder, ”My energy booster is right here, how can I be tired?”
Xiu's hand ran through his thick hair. ”When you're tired just say it that you're tired. Stop trying to be Mr. Perfect all the time.”
Darren looked at her, ”Are you saying I'm not your Mr. Perfect?”
Xiu brushed his hair off of his forehead and leaned a bit to press her lips against his forehead. Her lips lingered a bit longer against his skin while she said, ”You're my Mr. Perfect already. That's why I said, you don't have to try so hard to act like it 24/7.” Darren raised his brows at her in amusement while she added, ”If you kept this up, it'll become very hard for me to catch up to you.”
”Huh?”
”Because I can't be as perfect as you are. I have way too many flaws,” answered Xiu.
”I didn't fell in love with the perfect you,” said Darren while he held both sides of her face. ”I fell for this version of yours that is completely flawed. Because it made you become so real that I couldn't help myself from yearning for you.”
His hands slowly went down to her stomach and he pinched her hard making her squirm, ”Regan!” He laughed out before burying his face in her neck, ”Yes, Sweets?” Saying that he nipped her skin making her body tingle as his tongue slowly caressed her skin, she ended up giggling. His hands were still on her stomach making her laugh harder.
”Stop that! Stop tickling me!” Xiu screamed at him to stop in between her laughter but it only encouraged Darren. Tears were already brimming in her eyes from all that laughter and she had to stop this. She wrapped her legs around his waist and caged his body. Looking directly into his eyes, she whispered, ”This is not the way to play.”
”Oh, really?” challenged Darren with his eyes. His face came close to hers, only a breath away as he questioned, ”Why don't you tell me how to play then?” At the close proximity, she instinctively closed her eyes while he kissed her eyes softly before kissing the tip of her nose and just as his lips were about to touch hers, two annoying people disturbed him.
”Woah! It's hot in here!”
Darren and Xiu heard Ying's voice which startled Xiu while Darren was left rolling his eyes. They both turned to look at Ying who was fanning her face while looking anywhere but them. Meanwhile, Dylan was trying to make his presence smaller.
”I told you we'll get burned here,” chimed in Dylan with a heavy tone. He looked really annoyed by the fact that he had to witness yet another moment between Xiu and Darren. Why was he the one suffering today?
Ying laughed at his words but her eyes were now staring at Xiu and Darren.
