Dying Embers || BeckFreen [Completed]

Chapter 7: Fever

After the steamy kissing a while ago, Becca got tired and lie down on her bed. Her face was still red, so I grabbed a basin and a towel to wash her.

While wiping her face, I could feel the urge to kiss her lips again. I enjoyed what we did, but I couldn't get enough. It was like a drug to me.

I traced her lips using my finger, but she opened her eyes and bit it, causing me to whimper.

"What the heck?" I asked while looking at my poor index finger. It hurts.

Becca sat and pulled my neck to lean and gave me one satisfying short kiss. She then giggled and lay down again. I was left dumbfounded by what she did, and the knocks on the door pulled me from my thoughts.

"Who is it?" I asked.

"Room 101. Freen Sarocha and Becky Armstrong." I heard Heng from the outside, so I opened the door.

The headmaster and her servants entered the room and looked around. They saw Becca lying down and sleeping.

She was giggling a while ago, but now she was already sleeping. Nice actress.

"What happened to her?" the headmaster asked and checked her temperature. "She has a fever. Why don't you bring her to the infirmary?"

I sat beside Becca, and she clung to me. She shook her head multiple times, indicating she didn't want to go to the infirmary.

Who wants to go there after being drugged, right? If the boys found their way to fool the delivery boy, they could also control the nurses in the clinic.

"I can take care of her here, mistress. Thanks for worrying," I said and bowed a little.

Becca tried to sit, but the headmaster stopped her.

"It's fine, Becky. It would help if you took a rest." She smiled at her, and Becky nodded.

I was wondering why the headmaster looked like a docile lamb in front of Becky, but then I remembered that she was the wealthiest student here. She could get anything she wanted.

When the headmaster left, I looked at Becky, who was still clinging to me.

"Did you know that it was my first kiss?" I asked her.

"Did I make it memorable?" she sat and smiled at me without letting go of my arm.

"I told you, I don't like girls." I rolled my eyes.

Becky leaned on my shoulder and intertwined our fingers. I felt the electrifying feeling of being run down, but I managed not to flinch. If she found out that she affected me, she would tease me endlessly.

I looked around, plotting the escape in my mind. She needed a rest, and I hate being with someone this close. I could say I was allergic to people.

Becky held my chin and made me face her. Her eyes were telling me something I couldn't fathom. She then pressed her lips onto mine again, and I didn't know why I responded. I could feel her smile, but I ignored her. I wanted to taste her again. I wanted this feeling again.

Goodness gracious, am I a kissing addict?

I grabbed my arms from her and lay her on the bed without breaking the steamy kiss. When I finally got on top of her, she immediately pushed me and changed our position. This kid was competitive.

Becky tucked my hair behind my ears and planted kisses on my face. She giggled when I squinted at her, then kissed my eyes.

"Do you know that that was my first, too?" she asked and bit my lower lip. She wiped my lips using her fingers, then bit it again. She looked like a kid right now who was playing. What have I done to this child?

"And do you know you're heavy?" I asked.

Becky smiled but didn't move. Instead, she hugged me and closed her eyes. I bet she wanted to sleep on me.

I woke up in the middle of the night, still beside Becky, sleeping peacefully. I smiled when her fever went down, and she looked normal now. I tucked her hair behind her ear and gently caressed her cheek.

"Stay innocent, Becky. You're beautiful," I whispered.

I have hated her since I only saw her spoiled brat side. Maybe she grew up well. She grew up well-mannered and beautiful.

"Your parents must be very proud of you because you became like this." I chuckled and gently pinched her nose.

I was about to sit and transfer to my bed when Becky suddenly grabbed my arms. She slowly opened her eyes and smiled sweetly.

"Can you stay for the night? Tomorrow, I won't bother you."

"I don't think so. You're clingy," I retorted.

Becky pouted but didn't let go of my arms.

"Fine, only for tonight." I lay comfortable and faced her.

Becky caressed my cheek while looking into my eyes. How can someone be this ravishing? She's so perfect. In every angle and inside and out. Now, I know why Heng asked me why I hated someone precious like her.

Becky reached for my hands and kissed them. "Thank you for helping me. I owe you this one, Freenky."
