Scars On Her Soul

Chapter 11: Screw the bet!

Vienna's POV

"Ryan..." I called out walking out of the bathroom after taking a quick shower.

I frowned upon the empty room.

Where is he?

I wondered.

But just shrugged the thought away thinking that he must be out, somewhere in the house.

I walked into the walk-in closet, which had a glossy black and white colour combination and so did our room.

I smiled as I realized that my closet was set already, with all the clothes that Ryan bought for me when we went shopping together before I left.

I couldn't help but frown as my eyes fell on the unfamiliar clothes hanging along with my old ones.

Of course this guy bought a closet full of new clothes for me once again...which I didn't even need as I already have too many new clothes which were all untouched and even their tags were intact.

"Ryan, why did you get me all these new dresses..." I said as I heard Ryan entering the closet, I paused touching the soft fabric of one of the dresses.

Though they all were really, really pretty but still...I don't need them.

"I already have too many...remember the time when we went shopping and you bought so many clothes for me and that too without my knowledge" I continued, glancing back at him and suddenly my breath hitched and my mind went blank.

There he was, looking for something in his closet...standing with his back facing me, with a white towel hanging low on his hips, water droplets sliding down his back and disappearing right where the towel began.

He has showered it seems.

"Yeah I do remember and back then too you said that you didn't need anything" He replied snapping me out of the trance that I was in as I just cleared my throat and closed my eyes for a second feeling my cheeks heat up.

"Are you alright? Love" I opened my eyes upon hearing his question only to find him leaning against his closet with his arms folded and a smirk plastered on his face.

Of course now that he has seen me practically drooling over him, he's going to tease me to no ends!

Great!

"Yes I'm okay. Why would you ask that?" I asked back, turning around so he won't be able to see my blushing face anymore.

"Nothing...just that your face was all red..." He replied as I interrupted him.

"Um...it's just too hot in here I guess" I said trying to focus on finding some comfortable clothes.

"The AC is on, love and yet you are feeling hot?" He asked and I could feel him walking closer to me.

"Ahem...I don't know know I just..." I trailed off, forgetting what I was trying to say as he hugged me from behind, wrapping his strong arms around me while pinning mine down and resting his chin on my bare shoulder.

Yes bare...because I couldn't find a bathrobe in the bathroom so I had to walk out in nothing but a towel.

I somehow felt that he was saying something but I couldn't really focus on his words as the fact that his bare skin was in direct contact with mine, was more than enough to cloud my consciousness.

"What?" I mumbled asking him to repeat himself.

"I was saying don't you like it when I pamper you?" He asked, repeating himself as I mentally thanked him for changing the topic.
