"We will talk about this later."He doesn"t meet my eyes and faces the mirror. The shower is still on. He is wet from the top to down. His face is red. I touch his forehead to check and find that it"s warm. Sure enough, he has a fever.
"You have a fever."
"So dumb..."
"I am." I sigh when I hear the familiar words. I never knew that he can see the ghosts. Not even in my past life. How much about his life that I don"t know? Was it because of the ghosts that he suddenly left me on that day in my past life?
He kisses me on my lips. "You are really dumb."
It takes me a while to understand what he means. We are in the shower. I am draped in a towel. I forgot about this because of that ghost kid and Sung Jun.
"Too late..." He presses me against the wall. The towel falls on the bathroom floor. The shower is still on. My protests are lost in his ravenous kisses. His fingers start touching me everywhere. I feel my legs weakening by his touch. This isn"t good. Will I lose my virginity again to this man?
"Stop, you pervert!"
"No." He licks my neck. "Be mine, Aisa."
When I hear the familiar words, I don"t feel anything other than emptiness.
"If you don"t stop, I will scream and call you a rapist."
He suddenly stops and let go. His eyes are like the wolf eyeing a prey. I ignore the twirling feeling in my stomach. I pick up and towel and cover myself. I am feeling sick.
"Do you hate my touch that much?" His voice is dangerously low. His jaw is clenched. There is only dark fury in his eyes. I have seen him like this before.
"I do." I step away from him in hurry. That ghost is right. This boy is evil. A demon.
"Liar." I hear him say before he walks out in long strides.
I don"t feel relieved. I turn off the shower first. I wear the clothes in hurry. Sung Jun isn"t there when I get out. A pair of clean clothes is on the bed. I take them and put them on the chair. I take the bowl full of fruits from the table and place it on the bed. I sit down and eat it while my mind wanders to the past.
It"s the day before the graduation day. The Cla.s.s B decides to organise a party at a hotel. Everyone is there including Sung Jun and I. I don"t feel good because of the loud noises. I leave Sung Jun with the boys and go to the washroom.
I hide in the bathroom stall for a while. My ankles hurt because of the heels. I am not used to wearing them. But Sung Jun keeps getting hit on by the girls. He is also taller than before while I am the same. I don"t want to look like an ugly midget next to him.
I look at the wrist.w.a.tch. It"s 9:10 PM. I want to leave this stupid party now. I hope that Sung Jun doesn"t find me annoying to leave early.
"Cla.s.s President is daring, isn"t she?" I hear a girl. "To actually mix aphrodisiac in Sung Jun"s drink."
"Looks are deceiving." I hear a second girl. "I don"t know where is that shameless girl hiding. Her boy is going to get eaten like this. Serve her right, doesn"t it?"
I push the door and step in front of the girls. They are horrified when they see me. Good! I like this effect on people.
"Tell me everything." I glare down the girls to their knees.
I rush to the second floor of the hotel and find the room. It"s unlocked. I find the cla.s.s president half naked on the floor and sobbing. Sung Jun is standing tall and upright while looking at the cla.s.s president with hate and disgust. His face is slightly red.
"Leave."
The cla.s.s president doesn"t forget to scream obscenities in my direction before running out of the room. I guess that the beauty doesn"t need any help to ward off perverts.
"Lock the door."
I accept the Emperor"s decree and lock the door. I don"t get close to him. I wipe my sweaty palms on my skirt.
"Why are you standing there?" He eyes me impatiently.
"Jun, let"s go to the hospital."
"No, I don"t like hospitals." He plops down on the bed. "I hate girls when they do this."
"I am sorry. I should have watched for it." I can guess that Sung Jun has gone through a lot because of his fangirls in Korea. n.o.body knows, but he hates girls who are obsessed with him. It"s also one of the reasons why he is with me. Because I can scare off his fangirls, he thinks that it"s better to keep me with him as his s.h.i.+eld.
At first, I thought that I was the one who forced myself on him. After a year, when I realise the truth and come to know his real personality, I didn"t mind. People are full of secrets. He has his own reasons. Perhaps, I am too blind. If I can stay with him like this, I am fine.
I sit down next to him and touch his forehead. "Jun, you have a fever."
"So dumb..." He clasps my hand. "Fang Aisa, do you love me?"
"I do," I say without any hesitation.
"Let"s get married after graduation day." He smirks at me
"You are serious?" I am surprised. This is the first time when he is saying anything like this.
"Yes." His voice is soft but firm.
"Do you love me?" I dare to ask the question.
"Idiot, do I have to say the words?" He suddenly pushes me down beneath him. He kisses me fervently. This is the first time when he is kissing me like this. I am surprised and happy. Did my love finally win? He finally sees me.
"I won"t say this again. So, hear this carefully." He pinches my cheek. "I love you. Only you, understand?"
My mouth is sealed with his lips before I can reply.
