Meet the new Secretary

Chapter 10

'C'mon Clara, I was just surprised!'

'You laughed at me!' I shouted at my back. I was sitting at the swing at the back of Chase's house. We've been like this for 10 minutes now. 

'I'm sorry! I thought that people like you are already extinct. I mean some girls get laid at the age of 18. How old are you? 20?'

'I'm 25.'

'You're 25? You don't look like 25 , you look more like 20.'

'Don't try to sweet talk me cause I'm telling you it won't work right now.' I don't know why but Im really pissed that he laughed at me. I mean, what's wrong with being a virgin! I just don't wanna end up giving it to everyone. For me, it's the best gift I can give my husband on our wedding. It may sound so cheesy but it really matters to me. But this giant jerk stole my first kiss and laughed at me. 

I was surprised when Chase suddenly sat on the empty space on the swing.

'Hey! I  told you not to come near me' I tried pushing him away but he won't budge. 

'How am I supposed to apologize when you don't even want to face me. It's hard talking to your back you know.'

I hate it when he everything he says makes sense

'Ok, start talking.' I decided to give him a chance. I'm still not looking at him , I sat there staring at the ground, waiting for him to talk. 

'Clara, I want you to look at me while I explain.'

'There's no need for that. You can start talking now.' 

'Clara, don't be stubborn.' He said in a hard voice.

Ok, now I'm pissed. 

'I'm stubborn?! I'm probably the most reasonable person I know!' I shouted in front of his face.

I saw him nod. 'Ok, now that you're facing me , I'll start to defend my side.'

Crap, so it was a trap and I fell for it. I was about to turn my back again but he suddenly hold both of my shoulders. His hold was firm but gentle.

'Let go!'

'No.'

I started to wiggle from him but he still won't let go.

'Clara, If you don't stop this I'm gonna kiss you again.'

I abruptly stopped resisting. It was a threat. I sat there like a kindergarten student waiting for her teacher to spank her.

'Good. Now you behave. If you try to run I'm gonna french kiss you instead of just a smack.'

I looked at him wide-eyed. The giant has that annoying smirk again. I know I am now pouting but I can't help it. The situation is very unfair, he knows my weakness that's why he can threaten her.

'Now, stop pouting and listen. It was really not my intention to laugh at you. I didn't mean to offend you or insult you. I am actually flattered to know that I'm your first kiss. And I admire you...for sticking to your values. I'm really honored to pose as your boyfriend right now.'

'Pssh..you really should be honored. I mean, compared to that Lindsey bitch, I'm probably the purest girlfriend you can ever have.

He laughed so hard that the swing moved. I was surprised by the sudden movement of the swing, I instinctively leaned on him for balance. He protectively wrap his arms around me. We don't know what came to us but we just stayed there even though the rocking of the swing stopped already.

'I should probably move now right?' I am resting my head to his chest. He is so warm and he smells so good. 

Chase tightened his arms around me instead of letting me go. I felt him rest his cheeks on my head.
