VegasPete : The Way You Taste

11 - Bring the demon out of me

Vegas POV

When a new song started, it seemed to describe my emotions as I was staring at Pete across the dance floor.

[...When my eyes are on u
Summakildeuthan jeonyul (a breathtaking shivers)
Oh you know you get me loose
Make me go biteulbiteul (staggering)

A dance floor made for 2
Dari bureuneun seonyul (a melody sung by the moon)
Oh it's only me and u
Make me go biteulbiteul (staggering)

You bring the demon out of me
Blame it all on your body
We might be an hour late
We ain't got no time to waste...]

(Author's Note: song: BTBT (Feat DeVita) – artist: B.I. I suggest listening to this song first to feel the mood of this part of the chapter)

We ain't got no time to waste, Pete! A few footsteps were keeping us apart from each other. Who would have the nerve to stop me from reaching Pete at this moment?! Besides all my cousins?!

Suddenly, as I took the first step, I felt someone tugging on my arm. What the hell! I turned to the person, frowning.

"What the...Mr Kim?"

"Aren't you going to dance, Khun Vegas? Come on! Mr. Gu has already joined his fiancé. They seem to be having fun. We could do the same."

I felt confused and turned quickly to where I was staring at Pete before being interrupted. Arm was with Pete, which eyes were closed. Arm was hugging Pete from behind. Their fingers were intertwined. I could notice their promise rings shining in their fingers. Both their hands were resting on Pete's waist. The music that was playing was slower and it sounded very sexy. Their bodies moved rhythmically to the beat of the music. Pete rested his head in Arms chest. I was shocked.

"This song is so sexy...it suits any lovebird couple a lot...haha" Mr. Kim pointed at Arm and Pete with a sly smile on his face. They should get a room. And maybe we could do the same, Khun Vegas..." Mr Kim ran his index finger across the neckline of my shirt in a provocative way.

I wanted to break every finger on that hand.

"Please go have some fun with my cousins, Mr. Kim" I smiled. Get the fuck out of my face before I kill you! You are pathetic!

I leaned against a pillar near the dance floor in self-penance, watching Pete dance with Arm. Arm rested his chin on Pete's shoulder, tightening the hug. I don't understand what's happening to me. Why don't I move? I would have punched Arm and dragged Pete out of there by now. But I was paralyzed.

When the music ended, Arm loosened his arms from around Pete's waist. Pete turned to face Arm, his eyes still closed. They brought their foreheads together and then Arm rested a kiss on Pete's forehead.

Wait a minute! Is it a romantic scene taken from some damn novel? The worst thing was seeing a bunch of girls around them, with teary eyes looking at Pete and Arm like they're rooting for a happy ending from their favorite couple! And among them was that asshole Tankhun. Maybe this was actually Tankhun's plan since the beginning, to separate me from Pete. He is the one to blame. I should have suspected earlier.

"Tankhun was right. This is more about acting than action after all. All those hours they spent watching TV series and movies with Tankhun were worth it." Porsche whispered to me, keeping an amazed look at Pete and Arm. I wanted to punch Porsche too. His amazed smile was bothering me.

I hope this is acting, because you're a hell of an actor, Pete. I can no longer tell whether I was angry or jealous. Probably both. But not just that. That uncomfortable feeling that was aching in my chest was fear. Is it possible that Pete and Arm are in love?
