The Little Danger

Chapter 38: We are not lovers!

ALORA

Remembering being drunk like crazy was the least thing I have ever thought of myself. I was so embarrassed when I recalled everything that I did that night after waking up in the morning with a deadly headache.

And then the moments with Enzo- kiss me? Why would I ever want him to kiss me?

That was the most embarrassing memory for me from that night. Then in the morning when they stared at me- and the way Enzo gazed right into my soul- it took all my efforts to keep my glare low.

But luckily, he didn't ask anything nor did I give any reaction to him, so that he thinks that I remember nothing.

I had to pretend. Or what... should I have to complain to him that no, I remember that I wanted you to kiss me but you didn't and all? He would have mocked me till my death if he finds out the truth. Because he truly thinks that I don't know what happened between us.

When in reality, I remember every action of my crazy drunk side that I did... to him.

Today I spent the most refreshing time outside in between nature where there was no noise, no people around us, no stress and tension, just us and our inner child.

I must say that Enzo did think something good. We played, we ran, we had fun. I was so happy there.

But I didn't know that coming back here, I would find something more interesting or you can say unexpected.

"What?" I almost yelled at the revelation.

"You heard it right." Enzo shook his head, eye gesturing to the pair. "They are a couple."

I looked at Carlo and the beautiful girl standing in front of me, lurking their eyes left and right around us. Carlo seemed to be afraid of me. While the girl is looking frightened.

Alright, I am the one to be blamed for their condition- I mean I did scare both of them even though I was only meant to attack Carlo.

But that's also actually not my fault because I literally thought he was assaulting her. How would I know that they were... uhh... romancing like that.

Not my fault I have never seen anyone being romantic like that... in that position.

Max stepped up to me and said with a grin, "Pretty ladies. Let me introduce you both. Alora this is Stella, Carlo's girlfriend and Stella this is Alora, our one and only little miss." He completed his sentence with a gentle pat on my shoulder.

Then what happened was Enzo decently slid between me and Max, cleared his throat and looked ahead as if he didn't just divide the two of us.

I saw Stella's eyebrows hit her hair strands. "Are you two...?" She gestured between me and Enzo suspiciously and I instantly knew what she was trying to say.

I think I have started to read people's minds. Or then how did I get to know what she is thinking about, right?

"We are not lovers."

"We are not lovers!"

Enzo and I said at the same time. The only difference is he said that in a calm way, almost sounded bored. While I screamed the words out.

Before I could say something further, Enzo said, "We are not lovers." Again, sounded like he doesn't care at all.

That made all of us shut but then only I heard Enzo saying something again like 'not yet'.

Did I hear him right or was it my imagination?

"Yeah. That's right." I released a nervous laugh, immediately shook my head repeating the words.
