"..."
"... I reckon that... It is ti for to leave your chambers, My Lady."
’... Yeah, Uhm... Please do.’ — eting his dithering gaze, the Lady nodded. — ’... I don’t think this is... good.’
"... But... Lady Marianne, I... There is this need I heed..."
’... "Need"?..... Kinky... please don’t start with those "needs" of yours...’
The look in her eyes transmitted the essence of her thoughts. And so, preventing her from stepping away, he added.
"Wait. It is not... I did not an... Haaah... I..."
"....."
"... May I... Embrace you?"
"!!!!????" — Scandalized she recoiled, eyes wide open. — ’WHAT?! "MAY I", WHAT?!?!’
"Ah, Lady..... !!... Wait, I didn’t–" — Seeing the deep red invade her the Prince realised.
’I-I-I may have let you french kiss b-but! I-I... I w-w-wouldn’t let you do THAT!! (?) Marriage!! Anne can only do THAT after Marriage!!! Huwuh?!?!’ – "n...!"
Covering herself the Lady stamred as she stepped back, dizzy at the blunt request, getting tangled in her own feet and ultimately falling on the near settee.
"Lady! It’s-!...." — Seeing her flinch at his approach, beet red at the mistaken aning she gave to his words, Zeleskiaz forced calmness to reign his actions as the blush also invaded him for how adorable even in this chaotic situation she appeared. — "Ahem... It is a misunderstanding... I... What I ant was to ask permission to bid you farewell... With a brief hold in my arms..."
’Oh..... Oooooh! S–So you ant a hug! (?)..... Talk properly, d*mn it! Even Marianne isn’t as misleading!!’
Understanding the real intention of his words she composed the disrupted heartbeat nacing to pierce her chest, and with the remaining fluster she struggled trying to stand and face him as she should.
Standing firmly before him she sent a dubious gaze at the man who had trouble controlling his hands.
’... That’s an awfully cute request coming from you, kinky... But. You can’t really bla for misunderstanding. Mind you, but d*mm right you deserve my suspicion...’
"... I reckon it is... difficult to grant this..."
’haaah... Man~... If you know, why a~sk! I’m telling you, it’s not worth the ri–’
"Yet I still wished to request it... It was worth the risk only by witnessing the shade that decorates you."
’... Oh... My... Goodness...’
His honesty and enchanted mind, heated by the sweet interaction Zeleskiaz only managed to experience when she was close, poured romantic pieces to the bewildered and inexperienced Lady. Causing the flutter in her stomach to intensify. Because even when the two were as ignorant of the source of their sentints... The truth of the root was certain.
*******
’Give a break, please... This way of talking is not good for our heart.’
Our body felt a teasing shiver go around as my cheeks felt feverish because I can’t get used to these changes.
His eyes were too brilliant for to ignore. The candles illuminating the room were also a detail I can’t seem to read as a normal ambience. This delicate scent my bedroom had and the warm lights of the lit candles mixed with his presence... It was tempting...
Just as it was when we hid in that passage.
"..."
Back then... Oh gosh... I can’t even rember clearly every second we stayed there...
It felt short but then I learned minutes must have passed by...
If not, then my jaw wouldn’t have hurt later... And I... My legs wouldn’t have given out while still hiding.
Rembering that we continued kissing even as I slowly fell down is...
Oh Gosh... I shouldn’t recall that right now...
"..!" — Lifting my gaze to pause my wandering thoughts, I found him pleasantly watching with eyes that seed to be of a misty pink, gleaming under his long lashes with that naturally sensual stare that useless, but genius in physical taste, Author gave him.
My eyes didn’t know where to look anymore. I can’t et such dangerous eyes. And... Granting his request is kind of...
’Can I be sure we... That we will leave it at that?.....’
Maybe I am placing too much thought into his request... Maybe if I... See it from a different perspective...
"... There is... No need for you to force yourself to agree, My Lady."
"....." — I had started to fiddle with my fingers trying to figure out what to do. Hearing him, I glanced at him cautiously for so reason. Only to find his confident expression watching fondly... Warmly.
’I would bite my inner lip if I could... It’s difficult if you look at as if reassuring that what I’m afraid of won’t happen...’
"It’s only another selfish need of mine."
"....." — ’Sigh... Let’s... Let’s trust him this ti.’
Sensing how Marianne also felt unsure of what to do when facing him like this after solving a misunderstanding that certainly troubled him (Enough to even make the confident Male Lead seem ridiculously incapable of how to solve the issue) I ended up suggesting my girl an option that if successful... The distress we felt at his different attitude might disappear completely as it should after using his chance to forgive him.
’Let’s see it as a make up hug friends give when reconciling... That way we might find peace and forget it even happened.’
Hugs are warm so... That coldness he treated us with should be proven false as he said it was... Right?
As I thought this I vainly searched for the post-it notes, finding them already in my hand.
I guess the confusion of the situation was affecting my perceptions, however, I didn’t lose ti cursing my stupidity.
Before he decided to leave at my lack of response, I wanted to tell him I was alright with granting his request. But...
’... How... What should I even say??’
A way to say it that won’t lead him to think he could do whatever "need" erged...
"....."
[ To seal our conciliation after this unfortunate misunderstanding... I agree to ]
’... "Hug"? "A brief hold" as he said before?..... I refuse to use "embrace" after thinking he ant sex when requesting it...’
Wow... This might be how adolescents feel when texting weird things... Getting the right words is difficult.
"..." — ’Ouf! Whatever! Not like I’m Theressa. Why care so much.’
Deciding to keep it simple, I added the last word and turned back to face him and hand him the ssage ready to kick his a** if he betrayed my trust.
*******
Zeleskiaz battled to maintain a calm expression once she turned to look at him.
His curiosity to know what she would say in those glorious sheets she carried and briefly couldn’t find as she had forgotten she had them in her possession made him peek over her delicate shoulder, aided by his height.
— I agree —
The pair of words that after the adorable hesitation she implied with the tilt of her crown filled his blood with the freshness elation could only bless on him.
The Lady’s dinky character when bewildered at his actions summoned ecstatic chuckling from his soul... Joy and idyll.
’Quickly turn so I can hold you, my Lady. I’m reaching my limit holding back this need to squeeze your tiny figure.’ — He passionately thought as she pondered.
Ultimately, it happened. She turned. And feigning to ignore her answer, a faltering breath left him as he noticed she did not find the courage to say what she agreed to.
[ I agree to it. ]
’Haah... How is it possible... Everything about her captivates like mad.’
Restraining the urge to kiss the words she had written, his eyes rolled to et her brazen ones, expectant to wrap her completely.
"Then... As I have your permission..." — Unfolding his arm so the stack would fall on the near couch, Zeleskiaz gave a tense step. — "Please excuse ..."
His huge physic felt as if a mountain was approaching. Making her waver the more he ca closer.
Gulp... — She swallowed nervously, trying to pretend calmness.
The woman’s hands were fiddling with each other as his arms surrounded her, sliding slowly over her waist, only touching her once he intertwined his fingers together, bringing her closer with careful force assembling his arms to beco the fortress holding her precious figure.
And... Eventually... the pressure on her back urged her to respond.
’Uhh... I guess we also...’
Dubious, her hands did as he had. Although unable to et properly around his back. And at her ignorant attempt, unaware of what it had caused, she ultimately desisted to do the sa.
Leaning on him with her head turned to the side where their eyes wouldn’t et, she tried grasping as much she could of him.
’Sorry, but... I can’t intertwine my hands without dislocating my shoulders..... Hugging a bear is not an easy deed, mate.’
Zeleskiaz’s chest trembled at her innocent intention to reciprocate his wide range. Bending lightly, his countenance rubbed dainty on her bushy crown, filled with her delightful fragrance, slightly damp... Teaching him that a bath had been drawn for her before he arrived.
It was her grasp on him that had brought their bodies together.
Only the thin gowns were separating their surfaces.
The heat of their bodies travelled through it, cruelly effortless. Therefore, to ensure the embrace would not et a sudden end once she beca conscious of it...
His hands dissolved their lock to leave no space available for distance.
