Chapter 30: Chapter 30

“Are you a keyboard?”

“Why?” I ask, even though I already know this one.

“Because you’re just my type.” I already know these pickup lines, but shit, why am I getting giddy. Heck! Am I gay? Boys shouldn’t be acting like this.

“Are you this thing called darkness?”

“Why?”

“Because at the time that I saw you, I can’t see nobody else, Stephen.”

My heart beats even worse when she moves her face close to me.” Your lips look lonely. Would they like to meet mine?” She asks, then her eyes look down at my lips.

If she keeps on acting like this, she would look like a flirty girl and I hate this kind of woman, but why do I like it when she is the one who’s doing it? Sh*t, I think I’m going crazy!! God help me, I think I might lose my control if she keeps doing that.

“If I am hungry, and I need someone who can help me with my hunger, can I go to you and let me have a bite even just in your lips?”

I raise my hand and softly hold her face. I was about to kiss her, but she tilted her face.

“Ha ha ha! Sorry, I don’t really know how to ease you. All I know is just a simple pickup line.”

Simple? You call it simple? I nearly have a heart attack! I think you might also want to kill me! And then you call it simple! Is this woman insulting me!?

“Stephen, hey Stephen! Are my pickup lines okay? Is it too corny?”

“Y-Yes it’s corny, don’t do it again!” I acted as if I was annoyed.

“Oh, o-okay, I’m sorry. But wait, are your feet okay?” She pointed at my feet, and I look at my feet confusedly.

“My feet? Nope, why?”

“Because you were running on my head the whole day.” I was about to smile, but she covered her eyes and it looks like it hurt.

“Why? Are your eyes hurting?” I don’t know why, but I am worried about her.

Damn! I forget that she asked me to buy her eyeglasses. She told me her eyes were getting blurry. I think I really need to buy her glasses now… but the glasses don’t suit her. I mean, I know she would still look beautiful with it.

“Hey! Alyana, tell me where it hurts!”

“There must be something wrong with my eyes...” she looks at me.

“... I can’t take them off you.” She quickly covers her face with her other hand that was not injured.

“Why am I so corny?” She mutters and I laugh softly at her cuteness and at the same time, I felt relieved because she was not hurt. It was just one of her pickup lines.

I hold her hand and forcedly remove it from her face.

“Yeah, it’s really corny, but..” I place her hand in my chest

_

Alyana Perez’s Pov.

I can feel his heartbeat in my hand. It was so fast. I’m confused. Why is it beating so fast when we were just sitting?

“...you made my heart beat fast Alyana.”

My heart beats fast too in his sincere confession. I can feel my face heat up, so I tilt my head to avoid his gaze.

“M-Me too.” Then I also hold his hand and place it on my chest.

We look at each other’s eyes for a while, but my forehead creases when I feel his fingers touch my n*pple. The heck! I’m not wearing a bra!

“Stephen!”

“What?! You were the one who puts my hand there and then when I touch it you’ll get angry?” And he’s acting again, just like last night.

“Y-You’re really perverted, I haven’t eaten yet!”

“Just that? Okay, eat now.”

“Please take your hand away from my n*pple! I can’t focus on food if it’s there, it distracts me.”

“Did you know I’m punching a girl? You should say thank you to me because it looks like this fist of mine doesn’t want to punch you.” It was as if I was scared of what he said.

If I cry, what will he do? Will he be angry with me or will he be even angrier with me?

“Punch?” I asked and little by little, my tears started to flow. I could see that he seemed confused when he saw me crying.

“Sh*t! I was just joking. I can’t punch you. Shhh, don’t cry.” He hugged me and patted my back.

I cried even more. Why is he so sweet? I’m so confused right now why he’s like acting like that towards me!

“Oh my god, bro! Why did you make her cry, Stephen?”

“Yeah, my brother would really kill you, bro, he doesn’t want seeing Alyana crying.” Stephen slipped out of my embrace. I turned to my side and saw John and Flyn.

“Damn! What are you two doing here again?! You two really like annoying me, don’t you have jobs? Or you choose to go to my house than going to work.”

“Nothing, we’re just hanging out a bit and then we don’t have a love life like you, so we’ll just try to annoy and tease you.” They laugh at the same time.

“You’re really crazy John! We came here because we’re going to invite you to the club.” Club? Isn’t that where Sis Kelly went a lot with her friends? What does the club look like? I have never been to such a place like that. I only hear it from my Sis Kelly and students in the school I am going to.

“What are we going to do there?” Stephen asked. Yes, what are they going to do there?

“Mr. F**kboy stop acting so innocent. What do we do when we go there? Of course for the woman! Collecting them and taste them!” There was a mixture of teasing he said and smiled like crazy.

Taste them? Is what I am thinking right now is correct?

“I met someone yesterday in the club, she has a female friend who you really want to meet you. Promise she’s nice and sexy and f**k bro! You’ll never regret if you taste that wom---“ John didn’t finish what he was going to say when Flyn covered his mouth.

Nice and sexy as...f**k? does she seems to really want to meet Stephen?

I looked at Stephen who was now laughing at what the two of them doing right now.

“We noticed that you don’t seem to be coming out of your house much anymore. And your secretary misses you for a few days without coming into the office.” Flyn said.
