Lucius POV

I leaned on my door as I replayed it again in my mind. I kissed her I kissed her I kissed her it repeated in my brain like a broken cassette tape. I slumped on my bed.

Those thin lips of hers~ with just the right amount of flesh on the bottom lip and I got to bite them!!

And the way she looked after I kissed her. Her dazed eyes and flustered face with her lips swollen with this pink tint on them I did that!

I almost lost control and was about to take her.

That was the reason why I left with my self-control which was hanging on a very thin thread.

She didn't reject my kiss she even copied it. That must mean she feels something for me right?....

I thought as I drifted to sleep dreaming of what could have been if you get what I mean hehehe~

Brooke's POV

I woke up to the sound of my alarm. I sprung up

That wasn't a dream right?.....

Yesterday Lucius kissed me!! Oh~ my face is definitely red.

"Brooke quit acting like a pure maiden. You are a demon destined to rot in hell So suck it up" I recited my pep talk in the bathroom mirror as I washed my face.

I went down after I changed my clothes. I saw that he was eating so I sat down as well.

Please show me some sign that yesterday wasn't a dream.

We ate in silence. I was about to stand when- "I will drive you to college today as well" he said while I smiled subtly.

I waited for him to finish his tea then we made our way to his garage

Which was by the way bigger than my room in this mansion.

He picked a different car today I sat inside as he started the car.

We drove in silence as usual but something was different today there what's this tension...sexual tension?

NO! I scolded the prevy side of my brain. We arrived at the college I got out at once

I can finally breath~ he came out as well which he usually doesn't do.

I looked at him questioningly when he suddenly kissed the side of my lips and whispered "I will see you at the mansion".

He just got in the car and drove away. While I pulled the hood of my hoodie to cover my face.

I walked to class "So what happened?" asked Motherhen. "What?" I questioned him.

"I asked why your ears are red and don't even think of lying to me because the girls are saying that they saw senior Le'strange kissing a girl wearing a cat hoodie" he said pointing my hoodie.

"And you're the only idiot that wears cat print hoodies in our college and that is a fact" she stated. I just groaned.

Lucius POV

I came home a bit early today and waited for Brooke at home. I could have waited at her company but she just vanished from college today so...

Creak~ the door to the dinning hall opened. She came in clearly avoiding looking at me as she power walked to the stairs.

But I caged her to the wall with my hands on both sides of her shoulders. She just turned and said "Oh~ Lucius I didn't see you there" as she scratched her nape.

Still not looking at me.

"Why are you avoiding me?" I asked.

Did you not want that kiss yesterday? Or is she angry that I kissed her near the gate to our college.

"I am not avoiding you" she replied not looking at me.

I gripped her chin making her look at me. She blushed when she finally looked me in the eye. What...?

"Okay fine! I just feel embarrassed when I look at you. God I'm acting like a teenager~" she mumbled as she hid her face in her hands.

W-What i-is this development? This is too cute for Satan's sake I thought as I smiled.

"What are thinking about that made you blush so much" I teased her while smirking. She glared at me but then smirked

"You. I was thinking of you" she said.

Third person POV

We were still standing with her pinning against the wall with my hand on her chin as I gently brushed her jawline.

He was gentle which was not something she didn't expect from him when I first meet him....

I thought he was this dark and dominate mafia boss who could bring everyone to their knees by his glare.

Who would have known that he is actually gentle, a bit playful and a big tease at that with the most beautiful smile that I have seen in this life.

She was staring at me with her mouth curved up in a smile.

She was someone who was a loner but who am I to judge when I am the same way.

She was someone who didn't look at me with those eyes the eyes that would fear me or want to deceive me.

She was often the most straight forward person with a sarcastic attitude of course.

With eyes that held so much depth like the night sky and a smile that could lighten up a dull room.

"Okay stop that" she said covering my eyes. "Stop what?" I gave her a lopsided smile.

"Looking at me so intensely" she said as she let go and sat on the couch.

Looking at me so intensely making me feel this churning sensation in my stomach.

"Lucius" I said. He turned to me with a smile as he sat on the side of the couch. "What are we now?" I asked him.

When I was inquired by mother hen was when I realized that we didn't specify anything about if we are ...lovers or if it was just a fling. Tho it hurts to think like that I need to know.

"I...like you. So I was thinking if you would be my girlfriend" he whispered the last part.

I did hear it but I wanted to tease him so..."what was the last part?" I feigning cluelessness.

"I said doyouwanttobemygirlfriend" he mumbled. I cooed at how cute he was.

"Yes I will but first you need to be punished first" I said pointing my phone at him.

He looked at me questioningly.

I showed him the clip where he promised that he wanted me to stay with no strings attached.

You kissed me so that you have violated the no strings clause" she said as she sat with her legs on the couch.

"So what is my punishment then?" I said arching my brow. She then came close looked me in the eyes as she said

"Your punishment is to go on a date with me"
