World Domination Begins With Getting a System in a Modern World Chapter 112: Patty’s Suspicion

As Leslie’s lips touched Jas’, it was as if ti itself ground to a halt.

The world outside, even the muffled noise of the TV downstairs, all vanished in an instant.

It was like it was just them. Just Jas and Leslie. Frozen in a mont that neither had ever dared imagine would actually happen.

Jas stood perfectly still, his mind blank and his body rigid. He didn’t move. He couldn’t for so many reasons.

His heart hamred violently against his chest, the sound of it roaring in his ears louder than anything else. Every fiber of his being scread at him to do sothing — anything — but he couldn’t.

Shock. Awe. Fear. Need. Desire. They all crashed into him at once, like a tidal wave.

He felt the softness of Leslie’s lips against his — hesitant, trembling, as if she was terrified he would push her away — and it snapped sothing loose inside him and he finally stirred.

He reached up, his hand finding its way to the small of her back, pulling her closer.

He tilted his head slightly, angling himself, and kissed her back.

Gently at first. It was as if be was testing. Afraid to break her. Afraid to break this fragile thing between them.

But Leslie, emboldened by his response, pressed into him harder, with her fingers clutching at the front of his shirt, desperately needing to anchor herself to him.

And that was it. That was the push Jas needed, as the damn he had built inside himself — the one he had fortified for years — shattered completely, and his emotions gushed out freely.

Jas deepened the kiss instinctively, his hand sliding up from her back to cup the back of her head, tangling into her silky black hair.

He poured everything into that kiss — the years of longing, of denial, of suppressed emotions — all of it.

Leslie whimpered softly against him and he sound sending a jolt straight to his core. Her body lted into his, and he felt how soft and warm, and perfect it is.

Jas tasted salt, as a tear had slipped from Leslie’s eye and touched their lips — but neither of them cared.

They kissed like the world might end the next second. And maybe, in a way, it had — the old world where they pretended this wasn’t real had just crumbled away.

But they were interrupted by Patty’s voice.

"Jas! Leslie! What’s taking you so long? Lunch is getting cold!"

They jumped apart like guilty teenagers, breathing hard, faces flushed.

Leslie refused to et his gaze, staring down at her shoes, her hands twisting nervously.

Jas swallowed, trying to steady the racing of his heart.

"We should... we should go" he muttered, voice rougher than he intended.

Leslie just nodded quickly, and together, they made their way downstairs, to the dining area.

As they walked, the air between them was filled with lots of emotions. Leslie slowly turned her head and stole a glance at Jas, and when she saw him smiling at her, she quickly looked away.

Her face was beet red and sh felt like she should find a hole and jump inside it imdiately. She imdiately wanted to distance herself from Jas but he suddenly grabbed her wrist.

She turned to look at him shaking her head and with a pleading look on her face. She doesn’t want her mom to catch them like this.

Though, it looks like Jas wasn’t worried, she is. There are a lot of things that she’s aware of, that Jas might not know; and it’s the fact that all the woman around him feels sothing for him.

Her mother, her friends — Natasha, Selena, all of them feel sothing for Jas. And she feels that Jas also feel sothing for her mom.

But the actual reason Leslie doesn’t want her mother to find out, us because she doesn’t want to make feel like she doesn’t have any chance.

It might sound strange but Leslie doesn’t want her mom to be single forever. She want to her mom to find soone and who else would are approve other than Jas.

Leslie sighed and looked at Jas with a bright, cute and loving smile on her face.

"Jas, let’s not tell mom yet," she said, and Jas nodded.

The two of them straightened out the looks on the faces and walked to the dining area.

Jas saw Patty already seated and he gave her a quick peck, before taking his seat.

After Jas pecked her, Patty couldn’t help but notice sothing different. Jas has Leslie’s scent on him and his lips felt warm on her face.

She looked at him intently, studying him and she noticed that sothing was amiss. As a woman, her senses are sharp, and she could feel it — sothing was different.

Her eyes moved to Leslie and she saw how her head was lowered, as she ate her al. It was she was forcing herself not to look up, but Patty could see the faint smile on her face.

With this, she was sure that sothing definitely happened between the two of them and she was very curious to know what it is. But she was aware that if she ask now, none of them would probably give her an answer.

Patty smiled and continued eating her al. Though she has no idea what had happened between the both of them, she would find out soon enough. Maybe even sooner than she expect.

***

Jas ate his food quietly and after he was done, he stood and gave Patty a peck, before going up to his room.

Walking into his room, he sank into the single couch and sighed.

He sighed as the kiss replayed in his head, coupled with lots of emotions.

"Who knew Leslie felt that way too? If I did, I would had been the one to confess a long ti ago," Jas muttered.

He sank further into the couch and sighed. He has a dinner date with Natasha though and with had just happened between him and Leslie, he sort of found himself in a tough spot.

Leslie has feelings for him and it’s mutual, Natasha also has feelings for him and he...

He can’t say he doesn’t have even the tiniest of feeling for Natasha, but it’s just not as strong as what he feels for Leslie... and Patty.

"I guess that’s why I always feel very protective of them?..." Jas muttered.

He found himself at a lost but he can only hope that things fix itself soon.
