The tense and dangerous aura instantly dissipated when Jenna's eyes t with Theodore's hazel pupils.
Theodore's eyes were as soft as a pool of water, completely unlike that serious look that one would have associated with his hoarse voice, deeper than his usual lazy and casual tone.
The girl imdiately relaxed and put her guard down in front of the Theodore of right now, and truth be told, though Jenna didn't know, Theodore knew very well that he wasn't going to do anything to her.
He had absolutely no experience in dating, much less in being a playboy who could do whatever with whoever, whenever.
That just wasn't him.
Nor could he ever force himself to act so casually on such matters.
At this mont, Jenna was still pinned between Theodore and the wall behind her.
Though she was more relaxed at this mont, she still could feel so of the ambiguous atmosphere around stemd from the fact that Jenna didn't know of Theodore's situation.
And Theodore wasn't planning to let Jenna find out either.
After all, at this point, it would be a tad embarrassing.
He also had no questions that Jenna would make fun of him on such a matter in the future is revealed.
"So, have you thought about it?"
"Hm?"
Jenna snapped out of her daze.
Thought about it?
Thought about what?
Jenna looked like a confused little doe in a forest all alone, having t a human for the first ti and not knowing what it was, nor its dangers.
Jenna had already forgotten about the question and was now trying to recall, and seeing that Jenna couldn't even rember this, Theodore took a step back and smiled.
His seductive aura completely dissipated and the ambiguous aura along with it.
Theo then reached out his hand and flicked Jenna's forehead, right at the center.
"Want to go get dessert another day?"
At the ntion of the question that Jenna hadn't even processed the last ti, she instantly blushed.
"Ah-um."
She didn't know what to say.
Without the ambiguity, it just sounded like Theodore was asking her out on a date.
"There's a nice dessert shop maybe 20 minutes away but it's already late, so it's probably closed. Shouldn't you at least treat another day to that for all the drinks I drank for you?"
Theodore said rather shalessly, but that's what Jenna got for playing around with him and letting him drink her drinks when she clearly had an even higher alcohol tolerance than himself.
What would he have done without the alcohol cleansing pill?
Jenna was dumbfounded.
That was clearly not the original implication of his words, right?
Or was her mind just too dirty?
Maybe Theodore really just ant dessert dessert?
But it didn't sound like it at first…
Jenna was sowhat troubled, but in the end, she decided to not think so much about it.
Since the person was right in front of her, why didn't she just ask?
"Are you asking out?"
Jenna asked with a clear yet uncertain voice.
Theodore smiled gently, with a shadow of his younger, more innocent self, that of the one that resembled an angel.
"Are you agreeing?"
Such a smile made it hard for one to disagree or oppose, just as it was hard to punch a smiling man.
Theodore's whole aura made him instantly more likable at first sight and rejecting his words was simply inconceivable.
But that wasn't the reason why Jenna made the decision she made.
Instead… she wanted to learn more about this person in front of her.
This person who was most certainly better than her in so many aspects yet didn't really seem to put those things in his eyes.
Everything that she wanted, ca most naturally to him, so much so that it seed almost superfluous in his hands.
Theodore had never, not once, flaunted his superior grades as if they were worth sothing. Not once did they seem to an anything to him.
In fact, Jenna suspected that even with his grades, Theodore was still holding back during tests.
Sotis, what Theodore did show was that he was already way ahead of everyone else, even at this school of geniuses.
The people he was hacking, the codes he was using and programming, as well as his whole outlook in life.
They made one feel like he was from a different world compared to everyone else as if he could leave and drift away at any ti.
At least, that's how Jenna felt.
Yet at the sa ti that Theodore felt so distant, he nonetheless seed grounded.
Grounded with an anchor that prevented from becoming overly cocky and arrogant, and that sa anchor was also what made him stay at this college and learn among peers of his sa age rather than moving on to the new world.
She wanted to know why he was staying, but she never said it, not wanting her curiosity to inconvenience anyone, but maybe, if she knew him better, she would know if she could ask.
And though Jenna had said that she wasn't comparing herself to Theodore in the aspects that couldn't be helped, she didn't want to be left behind either.
How could she possibly keep up if she didn't even know of this world he was headed towards?
And what better way to do that, than to get to know this person nad Theodore Wei, better.
Jenna looked up at the person in front of her once again with a mysterious confidence and determination, not any different from the way she faced her academic goals.
It was at this ti, that she had set herself a new goal in life.
"Sure, dessert? Why not?"
Was he not the one who asked her out? Why should she reject the other's approach?
This ti, it was Jenna who closed into the male of great aesthetics.
Theodore's eyes widened as Jenna's face ca closer and closer to his view.
Her eyes were soft and watery, looking at him intently.
He lowered his body and head before he even knew what he was doing and suddenly, an unprecedented warmth descended upon Theo.
Her soft and warm lips t his own and Theodore instinctively moved along with her.
Though this ca completely unexpected, he adapted quickly.
Their lips connected and disconnected ti and ti again, each ti they disconnected, one or the other would seek the warmth of the other party.
They didn't seem to find this heat overbearing, even in the relatively hot weather.
Jenna's arms slung across Theodore's neck in the heat of the mont, closing their distance even further.
But soon, Theodore's inexperience prevented them from continuing any longer.
Their lips parted as they both found the need to take deep breaths.
Jenna's arms were still around Theodore's while his arms were around her waist, bringing them closer together as they breathed each other's breaths.
Their foreheads touched as Jenna was still on her tippy toes as Theodore's neck lowered to et her.
Jenna's eyes were focused on Theodore.
She hadn't planned to kiss him so… passionately.
But the mont her lips t Theodore's, she physically felt sothing being unleashed from the other party.
It was as if a beast that hadn't eaten in hundreds of years was finally let loose.
His kisses made her feel like he was going to be sucking her in, becoming more demanding and needy as they went on.
And though she was rather inexperienced, she could tell, he was even more so.
At first, he was really rather clumsy, yet as their lips t ti and ti again, he seed to get a hang of it.
It was baffling as Jenna had long expected that soone like Theodore, who had both and the looks and the brains, not even lacking EQ, at least not from what she could tell from their previous conversation, to have had dozens of girlfriends by the ti they ca to college.
At this ti, Theodore, who had caught his breath spoke.
"You should take responsibility for my first kiss," he said, giving her another peck, which involved only tilting his head a little.
Yet sohow, that simple peck once again turned into another make-out session.
And after they stopped, having to catch their breath again Jenna's eyes finally had the ti to widen, realizing the information Theodore had just revealed.
"First—First kiss?!"
Why did she suddenly feel like she had totally taken advantage of this man, who could very well be seen as a godly figure in so people's eyes?
Had she just defiled an angel?
But then, she recalled Theodore's needly kisses, and she was instantly at a loss.
What had she done?!
Had she just sinned?
"How is that even possible? It can't be!" Jenna nearly stuttered.
This couldn't be blad on her, after all, she wasn't oblivious to Theodore's popularity.
She felt like it wasn't unlikely that he would hook up with one of his admirers, but apparently not.
She had thought that she was rather reserved, having only had one boyfriend, but this man, he was sothing else altogether.
Theodore frowned as his brows furrowed.
She had broken the mood, but not only that, she even questioned his honesty.
This was his sincerity she was trampling on!
"How is it not possible? Are you going to kiss and agree to go out with without taking any responsibility after taking my first?"
***
AN:
There seems to be sothing seriously wrong with these calculations.
Hmm, 170 chapters and the FL and ML have barely t, while these two gave already gotten together in less than what? a dozen chapters?
Sothing should be done about this...
