The Sassy Virgin (English) [on hold]

03. Selfish and Jealous

"Oh my God, Erin! Is that Bryce? The Bryce Kreuger?! Mister Nerd?"

I sighed and took me eyes off Bryce who was getting me some punch from the buffet table. Paige and Gelu, another one of my close friends, were ogling him right now. It was obvious they couldn't believe the transformation, the dramatic transformation! As I've said before, Bryce Kreuger was Clark Kent turned Superman.

'And he was supposed to be all mine!' I thought, irritated, as I continued to watch my friends drool at him.

"Can you two quit it?" i snapped at them and sulked. I really didn't want to be rude. They were my friends and all but it irritates the hell out of me to see them paying close attention on my conquest.

"What's wrong with you, girl? You've been frowning ever since we entered the ballroom," Gelu said when she finally decided to tear her gaze away from Bryce and focused on me.

"What's wrong?" I said and narrowed my eyes at the pair with Paige still gazing at Bryce, "What's wrong is that you two can't seem to get a hold of yourselves!"

Paige frowned and finally turned her attention on me, "What do you mean?"

"Have you forgotten that Bryce Kreuger is mine?" I told them through clenched teeth.

They stared at me for a full three seconds before bursting into laughter. My frown only deepened at their reaction.

"There's nothing funny about it,"

"You can't blame us for admiring such an impressive hunk of specimen of the male order, Erin!" Paige said when she was done with her bout of giggles.

"Now we understand why you've been panting over him like a love struck puppy!" Gelu acknowledged then leaned towards me, "If I only knew of his secret then, I would've been right along with you in stalking him!"

It seemed like the frown on my face was permanent. I couldn't jive in their fun 'cause I wasn't amused, not a single bit.

"You're both so annoying!" I snapped out, stood up and walked away from our table.

"Oh, come on! Can't you take a joke? Erin!"

I knew they were joking, I just don't find it funny. This was the first time I didn't laught at their joke. And it wasn't like me at all.

I saw Bryce walking towards me with a slight crease on his forehead and two paper cups, probably containing punch, in his hands.

"What's wrong?" he asked when I stopped in front of him and took a sip from the punch he handed to me.

Before I replied, I noticed that most of the other girls were looking our way, particularly at Bryce. It just annoyed me more. So instead of answering, I grabbed his tie, pulled him to me and kissed the daylights out of him. I don't care if there were any instructors around monitoring our behavior. I just need to make a point her to all the females [young and old]. Bryce Kreuger is M . I . N . E, mine!

After that PDA, I dragged him towards the dance floor after disposing of our drinks.

"Dance with me," I told him and wrapped my arms around his neck holding him so close that not even a needle could pass through.

He chuckled, "Do I have a choice?" and pulled me even closer to him, "Why are you pouting?" he asked but when he saw me glaring at the other girls, there was no need for further explanation. Then I felt him squeeze me lightly on the rump before whispering in my ear, "You're being possessive again. I love it,"

His voice was so arousing that my lady parts started to quiver. But as erotic as that felt, I couldn't help but pout even more.

"Why did you have to go and transform into this hot guy? Why'd you have to let the others see you this way?" I complained. I knew I sounded whiny but just didn't care! "You should've remained with your nerdy look!" I looked up at him with a don't-mess-with-me look, "I don't want to share,"

He raised his eyebrows looking surprised but then he smiled and gave me a chaste kiss on the forehead.

"That's the most selfish thing anyone's ever said to me," he whispered, his lips still touching my skin, "But I wouldn't want to hear it from anyone else but you. You're making me fall deeper for you every second we're together."

And in an instant, all the annoyance, the irritation, and okay I'll admit, the jealousy dispersed. Not only can he make me tremble helplessly in pleasure, but he could also melt my heart with his words.

When I looked up, there he was staring at me. I can't help but be mesmerized by his gaze. The soft music was drowned out by the loud beating of my heart as we continued to stare at each other. His hand touched my cheek and caressed it with his thumb.

"You don't have to worry about anything, babe." He said, "No one else can claim me now but you,"

I have no care about what others say as Bryce bridged the gap between our faces and kissed me in the middle of the dance floor.
