The Charmer and the Beast 46. The Bidding
"Why?" I quickly asked. "Why the hell would I bid for you? I don't even have money!" I glared at Flint, while he just grinned. What now? He finds my reaction amusing? The hell, I would never bid on him! God, even if I am a millionaire, I won't spend money on him. What was he thinking? "Hey, you're panicking," he murmured. "Why wouldn't I? You're giving me reasons to panic!" I almost yelled. I saw people look our way but that's the least of my concern now. "Okay, listen..." he mumbled in his calm voice. How could he stay calm right now? What is this? "You're just bidding for me. I will give the money. Just... save me from anyone who tries to bid for me." That kind of calmed me down. But I still gave it a moment to think. So I'm just going to bid for him. I don't have to spend even a coin from my own pocket. So basically, he's paying for himself, just so he could get away from whoever tries to bid on him. But as far as I remember, he was kissing someone else, according t
The Charmer and the Beast 47. The Man and The Confession
After the bidding event, Flint had to roam around to speak with some people in their organization, while I was left there alone at our table. Looking around, I could see how close these people are. They are already talking and laughing with each other. I’m actually the only one who is not talking to anyone. I looked out of place. But I guess I like it better that way. At least no one’s trying to disturb me and the peace that I currently have. Maybe I’ll just sort the information I have gathered today so I could start writing my piece later. As I was busy doing my stuff, I heard the chair in front of mine move. I thought it was Flint so I quickly looked up. But it wasn’t him. “How can I help you?” I asked, a little confused. He was wearing an all-black suit and was also wearing a black shades. He looked like he was on his 30s. My forehead creased upon seeing him. It’s already night time and there’s no need to wear shades. Also, I don’t know this person and I can’t think of any r
The Charmer and the Beast 48. The First Kiss
I was expecting to just attend an event tonight and go home feeling tired from all the social activity. But to hear Flint say he likes me? That's something I never thought would happen tonight. Hell, I didn't even think we'll be back to being kind of close again like how we used to before I break the 'we shouldn't be friends' thing. And right now, I just don't know what to do. I don't know what to say. I don't know how to react. I just don't know how to respond because I'm scared I might say the wrong things. And at this very moment, that's something I don't want to do. I don't want Flint to get the wrong idea. But does that mean I should also tell him what I really feel towards him? Why did I think we shouldn't be friends? He's right in front of me now. Should I just let it out in the open so I wouldn't have to suppress every feeling and every thought I have inside? "I didn't mean to say it as early as now. I was trying to find the right time," I heard him say. "But hiding it just
The Charmer and the Beast 49. The First Breakfast
I entered our room with a smile on my face and a memory to play over and over before I go to sleep. If I'm seeing myself right now, I would say I look like a fool. But whatever. At least I know I'm happy. "Hey. Something good happened?" Taylor asked. She was on her study table and is now doing some illustration sketches on her iPad. I've seen her do it every time she's not doing anything. I've seen her works and they are really good. I even thought that if in the future I'll be publishing a book, I'll let her do the cover of my book. If everything goes well. "Huh?" I murmured. I hurriedly wiped away the smile on my face and tried to look neutral. I'm not sure if I should tell Taylor right now. I'll think about that. I walked away from the door as I took off the shoes. I remember I just borrowed this from a dormmate so I carefully picked it up and looked for its box. I should be very careful with this. And then I thought, why wouldn't I share it with Taylor? She helped me look so
The Charmer and the Beast 50. The Official Label
I think the entire school knows already. I don't even have to tell it to anyone else. Those who have seen Flint kissing me at the cafe already did the talking. And well, it spread just like a disease.It has been days and our relationship is kind of out in the open. I mean, we're not yet official but some think we are, some think we're still dating, which we are, and some think we're just using each other. What the hell is that? How dare they assume things like that? I even heard people talking about how good it must be to be with Flint because he's hot and smart and rich. Huh, it was good! I'd like to tell them the wonders of being with Flint. But I'd rather keep it to myself. I'd rather keep him to myself.We hang out almost everyday. Sometimes, it's with Taylor and Sean, which is hilarious. The two talk to me separately just to tell me how they feel towards each other. I sometimes just laugh because they're with each other all the time but they never tell each other what they real
The Charmer and the Beast 51. The Intimate Night
Flint stared at me. He just stared at me and let his eyes do the talking.I can see the sincerity and the happiness.I am happy. To be with him. To be his girlfriend.As Flint was leaning closer to me, I took that moment to close my eyes and expect his lips. First, I felt it on my forehead, then on my nose. I didn't realize I was waiting for it so when his lips finally touched mine, it's like 'ah, finally, there it is'.His kiss was slow at first but as seconds passed by, it turned aggressive. His hands were now snaked around my waist while mine were holding the side of his head. I felt the force in my hips when he pulled me, making me sit on his lap, straddling.We continued to kiss, his tongue now playing with mine. We kissed like it was our last, until we had to part to breathe."I want you so much, JV," he whispered. Our foreheads are leaning on each other so I felt his minty breath on me.It was like electricity ran down my spine hearing what he just said.Because I want him too.
The Charmer and the Beast 52. The Shower
I can't remember what time we fell asleep last night. All I remember was the fun talk I had with Flint after the mind-blowing sex.After the deed, he cleaned me up and even carried me to the bathroom. He showered with me. Really just showered. I told him my body was sore and he was considerate about it. He did all the moves for me.After the shower, we went to bed together, just talking about random stuff. We talked about our plans after graduation. Although we already shared those plans before, I thought at this time, we had modified plans. In his case, he was planning to travel around Europe first before he would decide to work for his grandfather.We talked about his father and how dedicated he is in bringing money, and helping the poor. They're not just wealthy and influential, but apparently, his family was known for organizing various charities to help the community.How lucky was I?We also talked about how he would establish a publishing company in the future and that the very
The Charmer and the Beast 53. The Day After
We were eating at his dining table. We didn't have the energy to cook so we just ordered takeouts again. I think we've exhausted all our energy in the bathroom. God. Flint was just eating his tacos while talking about his plans for his thesis; while I just stayed silent, listening to him talk about it, and thinking about what he said to me earlier. He just said 'I love you'. He loves me. But I don't know if I should believe him because for all I know, he might have just said it because we were having sex and because he was in that magical moment and it was making his mind cloudy. Because at that moment, my mind was cloudy. So how would I know if he's telling the truth? 'I love you's' these days has become empty phrases to some. For me, it's not something you can just tell anyone without actually feeling it. If I ever say I love someone, that's because I love that someone. Not because that someone was giving me pleasure. Not because someone made my legs shake. "I'm sorry for grumb
