Chapter 22 You want to take a shower with me?
In the car, Sion clenched Aurora’s phone which finally stopped ringing, looking coldly at the girl beside him.
She was drunk, and her face and neck were all red. But that made her look innocent and ingenuous.
Aurora didn’t care who was sitting next to her. She only felt a blur that seemed to make her swing in the wind and float in the water.
Sion was still angry at that point and didn’t want to talk to her.
But Aurora was restless and shifting uncomfortably on her seat. Feeling hot, she intended to open the window. Then she smiled contentedly as the wind poured into the car.
As if the wind were not strong enough, she put her head out of the car window and sang breathlessly in the wind, “We’ll be there… A wink and a smile and a… great old time! Yeah… we’ll be there!”
“…”
The chauffeur behind the wheel let out a low chuckle.
Sion raised his hand to pinch his forehead.
After a short while, he said, “Come back. Shut the window.”
It was too dangerous for Aurora since she poked her head out of the window.
Trying hard to be patient, Sion pulled her down and reached over to list most of the window, “If you feel dizzy, just open it a little.”
“No!”
Aurora pouted querulously, and then she turned her head and lowered the window again.
Sion felt there was a twitch in his eyelids.
He was furious now, but Aurora kept provoking him as if she was bolder than usual.
“If you stick your head out again, you’ll get your head flown off.”
“It won’t happen!” Aurora turned around and gave him a do-you-think-I’m-stupid look, then she reached her hand out of the window.
“Aurora!” Having no time to pay attention to the unquenchable rage in his mind, Sion took a deep breath and hold her arm, “Be careful.”
“Ah…”
With her hands over her ears, Aurora showed a proud expression, which revealed her former pampered character, “I don’t want to hear, shut up!”
“…”
Sion stopped speaking. He just gazed at her and pulled her back when she was about to fall or get a knock.
Finally, they arrived downstairs. Sion picked Aurora up since she was stumbling, and quickly stepped into the elevator.
Smelling a family scent on him, Aurora was strangely relieved and felt it was liked a dream.
She raised her hand to touch this man’s jaw and dimly felt his freshly shaved stubble.
Sion looked away. Aurora gave him a smirk and reached her hand to his bulging Adam’s apple.
She muttered softly as she felt the outline of his Adam’s apple, “You won’t let me touch your jaw, so you think I can’t touch it? But you do have a nice Adam’s apple… Ah, it can move!”
“… Don’t be silly.”
With both hands holding Aurora, he couldn’t stop her, but let her hands slide slowly from his Adam’s apple to his collarbone.
He felt that her touch tickled him and made him have a lot on his mind.
Drunk, Aurora had no idea she was teasing him. She just thought it was fun.
His skin was fine and smooth to the touch. And there must be a lot of girls admiring his beautiful collarbones, Aurora thought.
Finally, they got home. Sion set Aurora down and walked away to make her some sober-up tea.
Nobody knew what she was going to do when she was drunk like this.
“No!”
Suddenly, her arms were wrapped around his waist. Aurora stared at him with her moist eyes, “Where you wanna go?”
Sion sighed silently then said in a hoarse voice, “I’ll make you a cup of tea. Why don’t you go sit on the sofa?”Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“No!” Releasing one hand, she tugged at her clothes and said, “I feel so hot, can you help me take off my dress?”
Definitely no.
Seeing that her dress had become loose from her tearing, Sion hold her hands down and asked, “Are you really hot?”
“Yes!”
“Well, I’ll get the bath ready for you first.”
Helplessly, Sion held her hand to take her to the bathroom.
“You should take a shower first.” Said Sion.
Sitting still, Aurora gave him a sly blink, “You want me to take a shower, don’t you?”
“Yeah.”
“Well, you want to take a shower with me?”
“…”
Sion was lost for words.
Never did he expect her to be like this when she was drunk.
Drunk Aurora was bold and hard to deal with, which was quite similar to her a long time ago.
Aurora was a teenager when Sion first met her. She had been pampered by her father back then, sometimes behaving like a wilful child. She used to be so dynamic and carefree with her father around.
Since Professor Robertson passed away and they got married, it seemed that everything had changed.
Gradually, the girl became a little bit reticent, like a snail locking herself into a shell. Since then, never had Sion entered her world, nor had she gone out.
“Look at me!”
Aurora glared at him discontentedly and wondered how this man could keep his mind wandering while they were talking.
When Sion realized his inattention, his sight landed on her rosy face and asked, “What did you say?”
“What did I say?” Aurora curled her lip, “I asked did you want to take a shower with me!”
Sion paused for a second, and then he asked in a low voice, “You want me to… be with you?”
Aurora seemed to be thinking hard, and then she nodded and shook her head, “Yes, and no.”
Sion laughed with helplessness.
Looking down, he saw this girl reach up and pull his collar. Aurora looked up at him earnestly, her full lips shining seductively.
Some irresistible impulses came to his mind. At that moment, he bent down and kissed his target, Aurora’s lips.
“Hold on!”
However, Aurora suddenly covered her mouth with her hand and stared at him with eyes as innocent as Bambi’s, “Sion, have you thought it through?”
“Um?”
Sion didn’t understand.
“You have to think it through! I’m okay with it, but you, you…”
Frowning, Aurora thought seriously for a moment, then went on, “… If you want to be with me, you have to stop liking other girls, and you have to stop dating other girls.”
Staring at her, Sion didn’t answer for a moment.
But Aurora didn’t care that he didn’t answer her question, then she added with a smile, “Well, can you promise me something else?”
Sion said, “Say it.”
“Put on your uniform and show me!”
Aurora’s eyes were strangely bright and her voice couldn’t hide her excitement, “Please? You always look the best in your uniform!”
Sion gave her a quick black look and said in a cold voice, “Have your shower now.”
She seemed to pick a fight with him on purpose and crossed her arms over her chest, “I won’t take my shower until you show me your uniform!”
“…”
Feeling a dull pain in his temples, Sion thought she looked like a stubborn child now. She was not reasonable at all and was very insolent.
He sighed deeply and looked at that stubborn, unmoved girl, “Do you have to see it?”
