Chapter 2

"So you really tried to seduce me?" he asked, laughing again, which made me feel embarrassed once more.

"Tsk!" I clicked my tongue before averting my gaze. I tried to hide my blushing face due to the embarrassment I felt.

Earlier, because of his persistent questioning about the real reason why I went to that bar, I accidentally revealed the truth – my true purpose for going there. And that's why the guy burst out laughing. He laughed so hard that his face looked like a fried fish!

"Can you shut up, you're so noisy!" I scolded him, but he just laughed even harder.

I just cringed and tried to control myself from stepping on his face. I might make it even uglier if I did so.

Actually, I've been irritated with this guy since earlier. I'm annoyed with him because he laughed at me when I told him that I seduced him. And I'm even more annoyed with him because he thinks I seduced him just because of my subtle seductive ways. He said I looked like a clown, trying to show him my chest when I don't even have any.

And what's more, I'm even more irritated with him because of his annoying laughter. His way of laughing is ruining my day. Instead of enjoying the beautiful ambiance of the place, it's been ruined because of his annoying laughter. Tsk.

I smiled widely when I thought of something. Let's see who'll be embarrassed now. Let's see who'll eat their own words.

I stood up from my seat and started my plan to make him stop his laughter.

"Hey, what are you doing?" he asked, puzzled as he stopped laughing.

Instead of answering his question, I continued what I was doing.

I stretched my arms in front of him, and since I was only wearing a crop top, he could clearly see my belly button.

I saw how he gulped at what I did, which made me smile even more.

Looks like he ate his own words!

I smiled to myself as I continued with my subtle seduction.

From stretching my arms, I sensually stroked my neck, giving it a sensual sensation. I did it while looking at him seductively in the eye.

And I guess, that's one of the reasons why he was more seduced.

I sensually bit my lower lip as I sensually stretched my neck, even moaning while looking into his eyes, which made him gulp even more.

"Oumm," I moaned softly while biting my lower lip.

He gulped again and stuttered, "W-what are you doing?"

Who's the one being seduced now? Huh? Dashiel?!

The guy was saying earlier that he couldn't be seduced by my subtle ways, but look at him now, drooling over the small glimpse of my body. How much more if I take off this top of mine?

Due to that thought, I smiled sadly before I made a dark plan forming in my mind.

I turned around with a smile, then slowly grabbed the end of my crop-top that I was wearing before I slowly took it off.

I could feel how he was affected by what I did, it quickly made him stand up and say, "H-ep hep! W-hat are you trying to do, honey?"

I looked at him, giving him a sarcastic smile in response to his question. He swallowed hard after seeing my expression.

I wanted to throw back at him the words he said about me looking like a clown with no breasts, but I kept it to myself since his reaction alone was enough to prove he had eaten his own words and I didn't need to mention it anyway.

Earlier, I said that I wouldn't do my Plan A, which is the seduction thing because if I did, he would surely catch on to it. But because of the annoyance I felt from what he said earlier, that he never got seduced by me because instead of looking attractive, I looked like a clown with no breasts, I became filled with anger. I was so filled with anger that I wanted to prove to him that he was wrong about what he said.

So, I stood up in front of him and did my subtle stretching, which ended up making him crazy.

"H-ey lady, I'm asking you," he said again when he got no response from me.

Instead of answering his question, I continued to undress until I was half-naked in front of him. The only clothes left on my body were my bra and shorts.

The cold breeze was the first thing that touched my skin as I finally removed my clothes. I shivered slightly because of the cold, but I didn't let him notice it since what was on my mind was seducing him, not letting him know that I was shivering.

I seductively looked at him, and he swallowed hard once again.

And I didn't expect that he would be even more shocked when I threw the clothes I took off at his face.

I smiled at him seductively again before turning away.

I stretched my arms sideways, feeling the cold breeze once again. I closed my eyes slightly to feel the moment more.

I was in the middle of enjoying the breeze when suddenly, I gasped because I felt something hot wrapping around me from behind.

I looked and saw his hand. I stood up straight because of it.

I forgot how to breathe and move when I felt him hugging me from behind. I looked like a mannequin in that moment.

I felt a chill run from my feet to my head earlier because of the wind, but this time, I felt hot. I could feel his muscular and hard chest pressing against my back.

"Stop it, honey, please," I heard him whisper behind my back, which made me stand up straight.

"S-top it, because you really are tempting me," I heard him add, which made me smile.

"No, I won't." I responded without hesitation, now used to his presence behind me.

"Why?" He lightly grazed my neck, causing me to swallow hard.

I took a deep breath before answering his question, "Because I want you to take back what you said--"

I didn't get to finish what I was about to say as he spoke, "You're beautiful, you're not a clown, you have an alluring beauty that can easily make me hard and yes, you're seducing me." His interruption was his way of making up for what he said to me earlier.

His words made my heart swell with joy, which caused me to smile.

"But nah, you don't have a boob—aww!" He couldn't continue what he was about to say as I pinched him.

I mean, everything was going fine until he insulted my boobs. He already knew they were small, but he had to insult them!

Like seriously, he won't ever get to touch them if they grow because of him. And how will he like that? It goes against my better judgment and caused me to react unexpectedly.

Like what the fuck? Should I massage my boobs to make them grow? Shit. It's Candice's fault; she always says the craziest things, which messes with my head!

"Let go!" I said as I removed his arms wrapped around me.

He clung to me like a gecko. He laughed immaturely and said, "Hehe, just kidding, honey," while still hugging me tightly.

I winced before deciding to push his arms away. I lost my mood because he insulted my boobs! He'll see how stupid he is if I pinch him!

"I said, let go--"

I didn't get to finish what I was about to say as I felt something cold drop onto my arm, causing me to shiver.

I looked up at the sky to find out what it was and then I realized it was raindrops. The drops kept falling and falling, so I quickly let go of his embrace and said, "Hey, let's go. Don't you plan on taking shelter? It's already raining." I asked again after a few seconds passed and he didn't move from where he was standing. "Hey! Let's go--" I couldn't continue what I was going to say because he suddenly hugged me tightly from behind and tickled me. The events happened so fast that I didn't even realize what had happened. I didn't even notice that he had turned around and ran away from me. I only noticed it when I felt his finger tickling my waist, which made me laugh uncontrollably.

I was going to say something, but I couldn't because of my laughter. "H-hey, let me go. If we don't, we'll get wet," I said struggling to speak while still laughing.

Instead of listening to what I said, he hugged me even tighter, causing me to stand up straight. I was stunned by what he suddenly did, and we remained in that position for a few seconds. I couldn't speak because of my surprise and his sudden embrace. We stayed in that position until we were both completely soaked by the rain.

"H-Hey, we're already wet," I stuttered.

"I know," he replied, "But can we stay like this for a while?" he asked, which made me wonder why.

"Why?" I asked.

"Because I miss you, I miss you so damn much," he answered, which made me gulp. "And I bet you don't even know how torturous it feels without you by my side, don't you?"

I nodded in response to his question, "Y-yeah, I know, but..." I answered, even though I wasn't really sure if what he said was true. I didn't know if he really missed me, especially since I saw him with another girl, and he didn't seem to care about my presence when we met at the mall.

"But?" he asked.

"B-But I'm getting cold," I replied.

He let go of his embrace, which made me wonder why, but I immediately got my answer when he took off his shirt, revealing his jaw-dropping six-pack abs. Oh my, he looked so yummy!

I couldn't help but drool when I saw the abs in front of me. It's a good thing it's raining because if not, it would have surely seen how my saliva drooled. Embarrassing as it may be to admit, but yes, my saliva really drooled because of him! Damn!

"Is it enough?" he asked as he hugged me. He was referring to the heat that our bodies were generating towards each other. Friction heat, so to speak.

"Or not?" he added.

"It is enough," I stuttered in response to his question. In fact, it was more than enough because my whole body was really heating up, heating up because of the thought of being naked with him while we were hugging each other.

"No, it's not," he suddenly said.

"Huh?"

"I said, the heat is still not enough since your chin is still trembling," he said while looking at my chin.

I was about to protest. I was about to protest that the reason my chin was trembling was due to my shock and not because of the cold, but I couldn't continue when I felt his lips on mine.

"There, that's just right," he said with a smile as he looked at my slightly parted lips caused by the surprise he gave me.

I looked at his lips when I heard him chuckle and I didn't expect to swallow when I saw how red they were, as if inviting me to kiss them.

Yes, it is pure temptation indeed, but before I could resist, I could only feel my lips on his while my hands were holding onto his neck, trying to deepen our kiss.
