His Equal

Meet My Boyfriend

After figuring who that his first name was Ren, he began clinging to me like a freaking puppy. Don't get me wrong, it'll help convince to my father that I am dating this guy, but it does get annoying really quick. Besides, I can see through him, and he isn't too bad of a guy.

He watched his father flirt with other women in his life, and he gained that ability to flirt with other women easily. From my understanding though, his father is married to another woman that isn't his biological mother.

Not sure what happened to his mother, but it seems like he has a interesting home life at the very least.

"Asuka, I have a question to ask."

I stared at Ren in surprise, not used to seeing him acting seriously. It's kind of a pleasant surprise to see, seeing him being serious.

"What's up, Ren?"

"Is Gakushu enjoying himself around you? I have noticed that the two of you have gotten close, but he just seems, different somehow."

"You noticed that huh?"

"Yes, I did."

I looked away from him, smiling to myself. I guess I did manage to do that for Gakushu, he even lets me call him by his first name now. It's like we're best friends, somehow.

"I'd like to think that he finally is showing bits of the real, authentic Gakushu Asano. If I can do that for him, then I've been doing something right."

I didn't hear anything from Ren for a little bit, so I turned to look at him, to see him smiling at me. He began chuckling, shaking his head.

"Now I see it."

"See what?"

"Nothing, now don't I have to get to know you better for this dinner that is happening soon?"

"I suppose so, let's just get this over with, shall we?"

I opened the door, seeing a formally dressed up Ren on the other side of the door. I smiled at him, letting him inside. He wrapped an arm around my waist, while I nodded my head at him.

"Ready to meet my wretched father?"

"Let's go, princess."

I groaned, already hating the nickname that we chose for the evening. We walked into the dining room, where my mother sat with my father. She looked up and she immediately began smiling.

"My, you are certainly a looker! I can't believe that my baby girl has a boyfriend! It feels like it was only yesterday when I saw you taking pictures of ladybugs."

I felt my cheeks turning red, and I glared at my mother, while I felt Ren kiss my forehead. I glanced up at him, just to see his charming smile on his face. He really can act natural when he needs to, I'll give him that much.

"Please sit down! Dinner will be out very soon! I have been dying to meet her boyfriend ever since she told her father about you!"
