CHAPTER 31

THIRD PERSON POV

Jay was walking back and forth in
his office after his confession.

"Never thought that I will become
weak for someone.. damn," He said
while sighing loudly. A little of his
pride was hurt due to the attitude
Jungwon showed to him. Girls were dying to be with him and the person he
want to be with... never cared for his
feelings.

His trance broke when he heard a soft
knock on the door, saying a curt come
in. he settled himself on the chair...
maintaining his posture.

Doe eyes peeked in, trying to locate the
blonde in the office... catching Jay's
attention. When Jungwon's eyes caught
the person he was searching for, he
fully opened the door and entered the
office with a pout.

Jay was confused about his behavior but somehow he gestured for him to sit down. 5 minutes passed and both were still sitting in uncomfortable silence. One is on the verge of silence. Snapping while the other is on the verge of drowning in the other's gaze.

"Umm-" Jungwon cleared his throat but
nothing came out of his mouth as he
opened and closed his mouth but ops.
He quickly grabbed the bottle of water
placed on side of the table and gulped
down the whole bottle in one go..
panting afterward. Jay was just
watching him with his mouth opened
ajar.

Is he ok?

He thought when Jungwon started wiping his palm on his pants while inhaling and exhaling sharply.

"Are you ok?" Finally, Jay asked
Concerned about his condition.

"Um. yeah. I think.. I am" Jungwon's
words came out broken, oh boy, he was damn unsure about his condition.
Jay sensed his uneasiness and got up, slowly getting up from his chair, sitting in front of him on the table.

"It's ok. I know you must be surprised
by my sudden confession but I am not forcing you to feel the same.... and about your freedom, you are free to do
whatever you want. I won't stop you
from going- going anywhere." Sadness
was clear in his voice and Jungwon felt
that. He got the sudden urge to hug the
blonde in front of him.

"Were you serious?" Jungwon asked in
a low voice, looking directly into
Jay's eyes.

"Of course I am."

"Then prove it."

"What?" Jay raised a brow.

"I said.. prove it Jay." A sudden
confidence hit his soul and said it out
loud with a cooky expression. Jay
smirked, liking the change in his
attitude.

"Are you sure?" Smirk was still
lingering on his lips when he mocked
back. Jungwom nodded with a fierce
gaze... and in the next moment he got
up from the table, leaning forward,
grabbing both arms of the chair.

"How you want me to prove?" Jay
voice was deep.. low and Jungwon gulped in response, feeling hot with close
proximity, his cheeks started getting
a new wave of heat, making soft skin
pink.

Jay was definitely enjoying the view in front of him... his smirk widened satisfied. He slowly moved his fingers on Jungwon's cheeks, feeling the heat of the silk-like skin.

"Your skin is soft Jungwon-ah." Jay
breathed caressing the soft skin and in
turn, Jungwon closed his eyes.

Oh my God.. what is he doing? Am
I giving in? Not so easy. not so easy
Jungwon. you idiot do something.

Jungwon scolded himself and after slapping himself internally he suddenly opened his eyes and got up from the chair.

"Y- you are not allowed to touch me.
Don't invade my personal bubble!"" He
snapped at his boss.
