Chapter 21 - K-I-S-S-I-N....

"But before anything else, you smell like her perfume. I don't want to smell her in you." she gestured at his clothes. lucas steoped back reaching for the hem of his shirt.

"If you wanted me shirtless, you should've just asked." he muttered smirking.

Yep he's still Lucas.

He removed his shirt throwing it away. He felt like it was stained. He took another shirt from hid bag. A white one which was an extra undershirt for his white uniform. It's against the dress code to wear a different colored shirt under the uniform.

Lucas knew that Areum was checking him out that he chuckled a little.

"Rude! Get dressed kid! That's not how you behave in front of a noona." she teased, recalling what Kun told her earlier.

It was cute, that Lucas didn't change even though he knew that she was older.

"Nae noona." he chuckled wearing his white shirt. The plain shirt surprisingly looked good on him. He has this 'white effect' Areum and her friends made up that term for people who extremely look good on a plain white shirt. No prints, no other colors just plain white and they already look extremely good.

"What's your sister like?" she found herself asking. Lucas fixed his hair that was messed by putting on his shirt then sat on the swing right next to areum again.

Areum noticed him suddenly put this serious face on, staring at the sky. "When the gossip of you being cheated on by Jaewon sunbae, I was so mad thinking you didn't deserve that. I slightly thought of my sister." he smiled.

"Why'd you hug him earlier? That's not how you greet the man who cheated on you." Lucas told her, looking int the pavement rather than look at her. The truth is, he didn't want to show his face because Areum would now know how he looks like when felt wronged.

Wait, what was the right feeling?

It isn't wronged.

Betrayed?

Betrayed might be too extreme.

Ahhhh,

Jealous.

This is jealousy.

"I hugged him when I caught him red handed." she admitted because it was the truth. "I had to."

Because I was hoping he would release me so I can come running towards you.

"Being with him was a mistake." she added.

Lucas was silent. That's not what he wanted to hear. What he wanted to hear was for Areum to say that it won't happen again.

Once again the two of them are silent. They were both staring at the skies. It was beautiful. You can see the stars shining brightly just like the night they both danced under the stars on the rooftop.

"I'll quit the pageant. You won't see me with Sujin that close ever again, in return I want you to take me seriously." he muttered out of the blue.

Areum sood up to protest. "You don't have to quit. You just have to draw the line. I'm not afraid that you would fall for Sujin." she said catching Lucas's attention. His eyes are focused on her.

The way the light coming from the moon was enough to make her face visible from the darkness. Her voice that was clear and sweet as honey.

"I mean you promised me. You told me you wouldn't leave. Do the pageant. But make it clear that YOU'RE MINE." the way she said it with authority Lucas kinda felt scared of her for a second, but it was cute. She knew what she wanted, and she's not sharing it.
