Be My "Girlfriend"!

3rd Taste (part 2)

Yang Meng POV

He didn't seem to look like he was going to be getting me clothes anytime soon as I was trapped in his tight embrace. Although I was slightly outraged at his nonchalance to my love bites all over my neck, when he kissed me for the second time, I got swept up in it as he brushed his lips against mine and his tongue prodded my lips for entry which being helpless at the minute was granted quite quickly. His arm wrapped around my waist was stabilizing me and

Out of nowhere, my mind suddenly traced itself back to the conversation I had with the school nurse and so I turned away because I couldn't afford to fall in love with him any more than I had already.

When I had gone to the nurse, who just happened to be male and explained my symptoms of not being able to control myself in some situations, he had only replied with "you've fallen in love and I can't prescribe anything for that, but I can give you advice so long as you give me details" and then we honestly talked it out and I came to the realization that I was in love with the one who bullied me for weeks and shoved me into a wall more times than we had kissed.

Last night was just an exception since You Qi needed to get rid of a stalker so that serves as my excuse for initiating the kiss as well as I was genuinely curious as to what the coffee sweet tasted like as I'd never had one before. Besides, if he treasured it so much, He shouldn't have left it out on the table for anyone to eat. He probably would be preferred if it was a cute or hot girl who he would need to steal the sweet from and tease instead he ended up with me.

My parents, especially my father wanted a tough fighter of a man, someone like Bai Luo Yin or Gu Hai or even someone who is less muscular but loved by everyone with a "winning personality" and stunning smile, but instead, they ended up with me.

This sudden surge of sadness in me caused me to strongly push him away and as secure as his grip was with this newfound emotion coursing through my veins, not even his hold would've been able to keep me. I ran up the stairs into You Qi's bedroom and shut the door.

I couldn't lock it because I didn't know how so I just rushed and hid in his closet amongst the clothes. I was surrounded by the smell of You Qi and was like a giant hug from him, but it wasn't helping my issue since I already wanted to cry.

As much as I may have a bubbly and resilient personality, even when I was young there were times when I'd break down or fear would take over. My one of my fears were of lightning as when I was very small, I got caught out in a storm and while I was lucky not to have been struck by lightning, it blinded me temporarily and I remember stumbling around in the pouring rain trying to find my mother without the use of my eyes.

My only other fear was of falling in love because all my life I had been mistaken for a girl or told I was feminine, but with this came people pulling my cheeks to the point where it hurt and when I got older, it developed into some perverts molesting me and telling me I smell "seductive" and screaming at me that it was my fault, when they got caught. I didn't believe them for a second because I had done nothing wrong. So I grew to believe that people would only love me for what I smell like because I seemed to be the equivalent to catnip for cats, therefore, leading to a fear of falling in love for them falsely loving me back. My mother had created a weird concoction that suppressed the smell so it wouldn't bother anyone in daily life, but ultimately I couldn't wear it twenty-four/seven.

Pulled out of my thoughts by the sound of footsteps I froze. You Qi was coming towards my small haven I had last minute created.

He removed the t-shirt that was on top of my head and smiled so earnestly that I wanted to cry all over again. "When you look like that, It makes me want to bully you. Although right now I think what you need is a hug," he said as he pulled me up into his arms.
