30 Chapter 30: Sleep? Together? The three of us?s (2/2)
Laurice wanted to dug a hole for herself.
...
A certain man was quite enjoying the sight of her but was a little distracted by her now red lips that looks rather luscious enough to eat. Sid's gaze deepened.
...
Laurice tried to calm herself down before facing her sudden misfortune. But more unfortunately than that, she has to face the verdict of two men who somehow oddly kept silent.
'Dead. She's dead inside. And she's probably about to die another ugly death.'
She can feel someone's glaring at her from one side while another's burning gaze was somehow making her feel uncomfortable. She was feeling both hot and cold at the same freaking time.
Laurice did not waste another minute and decided to settle the score at once.
'Act like nothing happened. Act natural.'
She thought it was best to neutralize both parties at once.
...
Ignoring the two man, she glanced at the wall clock from behind her and said, ”Oh! Just look at the time, it's getting late already. How about we all head to bed now and sleep altogether?”
Sid: ” ... ”
Dylan: ” ... ”
What settling scores? She did nothing but only made a fool out of herself. She was so awkward that she could not come up with a better excuse.
”Sleep? Together? The three of us?”
That was Sid.
Laurice can feel the animosity from behind her.
The temperature inside dropped a few degrees.
It was unknowingly coming from Sid who was now visibly frowning.
'This man's words are as twisted as ever.'
Laurice thought.
How did he came up with such a dumb assumption?
Laurice felt horrified with the thought and felt helpess at the same time.
She was about to scold him when Dylan, who was leaning at the back of her door suddenly spoke with a menacing tone and said, ”That's not a bad idea.”
Laurice was shocked.
'Brother, don't make it worse! It's a bad idea, alright? And i did not mean it that way. Don't misunderstand!'
...
Dylan does not trust the man to allow him to sleep by himself. Who knows if the man would do something like intrude to Laurice's room and molest her without him noticing. So he thought that his arrangement is most suitable for all of them. He did planned on staying for the night in the first place.
Laurice gawked at both men.
Laurice: ”I'm not sleeping with the two of you!”
Sid: ” ... ?”
Dylan: ” ... ? ”
What now? Did she say something wrong? The two men were looking at her with a complicated expression.
Laurice was out of her wits again.
'Somebody help me!'
...
Amidst the ruckus,
A pair of pajamas lying around was completely forgotten.
