Extra's Descent-Chapter 236: That Night [2]

"Can you guess?"

Hearing his voice, and all of his implications, Amelia found herself flustered.

Really flustered.

"I'll give you two chances."

Ba… Thump! Ba… Thump!

Her face felt hot and her heart was pounding. All of the sound seemed to have drowned from the tremors of her heartbeat.

Ba… Thump! Ba… Thump!

'Guess….'

She was no fool.

It was blatantly obvious, the way he was looking at her right now.

The desire in his eyes.

The same went for her. Her thoughts were empty, and she couldn't deny the overwhelming feelings flooding her.

She felt her body tense and shaking, and she couldn't help but stare at only one specific spot.

His lips.

As if an invisible force was pulling her to press her own against his lips.

However, she refrained from doing so.

If Brandon was going to tease her like this, she had to play along.

Gathering her thoughts, she responded, stammering.

"I-is it a g-girl you've met r-recently…?"

"Wrong."

"...."

"One more chance. I'll give you a hint."

"....!"

All of a sudden, Brandon touched her shoulders and slowly laid her down on the couch. She didn't resist and allowed him on top of her.

Ba… Thump! Ba… Thump!

Her heart pounded immensely. At this moment, she wanted to pull him close.

Her eyes were fixed on the glistening of his lips, and seeing that the button on his top had come undone, Amelia swallowed and stared at his exposed collarbone.

Brandon lightly grabbed a strand of her blonde hair.

"She has blonde hair. Kind of the same color as this."

Ba… Thump! Ba… Thump!

Then, he brushed her bangs, revealing her smooth forehead. Amelia squinted her eyes closed.

"On top of that, she's beautiful." read more on NovelFiremp-yr

Ba… Thump! Ba… Thump!

Once again, Brandon leaned close and whispered in her ear. Feeling the warmth of his breath tickle her ear, Amelia felt goosebumps all over.

"Do you have any guesses now?"

"Ah…."

Yes, she could guess.

It was obvious.

Staring into his cold indifferent eyes, Amelia felt the rush of heat to her head.

Her head was filled with all sorts of thoughts.

As of the moment, she couldn't think clearly at all.

"I have a guess."

"Hmm?"

Amelia scruffed his collar and pulled him close.

Their faces inched close. If either of them moved just a little bit, their lips would seal.

"I should take this as a confession, right?"

Amelia asked.

"Who knows? I've never confirmed anything."

Brandon responded with a sly smirk on his face.

His confidence.

His nonchalance.

His demeanor.

For Amelia, it ticked all the checks.

"Do you want to know who I'm interested in?"

Amelia suddenly spoke. She felt as if she was drunk on something.

At the moment, she couldn't contain herself.

No filter.

No control.

"Who?"

Brandon asked.

Amelia extended her hand and held a strand of his hair, then responded.

"He has white hair. Kind of long actually."

"Long hair, huh? Shouldn't he cut it…?"

"No. I like it that way. Makes him seem even more attractive."

"Then it seems like he's never cutting his hair again.

Brandon smiled.

Then, she traced his neck, slowly moving down the buttons.

"He's wearing a collared shirt."

Amelia started unbuttoning his shirt, revealing his bare chest.

Then, her eyes shifted down.

"And his hands seem to be touching my waist—Oh? It seems like he's slowly moving down."

"Ha."

Brandon scoffed.

"Do I have your permission?"

Amelia raised her head and stared deep into his eyes. Her thoughts were all fuzzy. She couldn't even feel embarrassed anymore.

"You can do whatever you want."

She stated. Her eyes seemed to spiral, and her face was flushing red with heat.

Brandon's face was inching closer. Amelia closed her eyes and braced herself.

It was then.

Creaaaaak….

A door creaked open, and they flicked their heads towards the direction.

It was Aurelia's room.

"Bathroom… Bathroom…"

The little elven girl emerged from the dark room, mumbling 'bathroom'.

Then, she paused and blinked her eyes.

Amelia snapped out of her daze at that moment.

"Ah…!"

She pulled away from Brandon and sat up straight. Brandon—who sat beside her scoffed slightly.

'Does he have no shame?!'

She could admit they were equally to blame. After all, they had seduced each other.

However, Brandon seemed like he wasn't flustered at all when Aurelia caught them.

"Ah, Aurelia. Why are you up?"

The little elven girl rubbed her eyes and blinked. It seemed like she didn't see anything.

'Hopefully.'

"Bathroom."

"Ah, okay."

Amelia got up and walked towards the bathroom.

Opening the door, she flicked the lights on. Aurelia was short, so she couldn't turn the lights on by herself.

Closing the door, and waiting for Aurelia to finish her business, Amelia turned her head and looked at Brandon.

The mood was now awkward.

After all, they seemed like they were about to do the deed. But was halted as if some deity out there put a stop to it.

'Haaa… What the hell was that?! And in the living room?! I must be going crazy…!'

Amelia stumbled, covering her face.

Peeking through her fingers, she looked at Brandon—who was looking back at her.

There was a tentative silence that filled the room. However, unlike her, he was completely composed.

Amelia frowned and puffed her cheeks.

Creaaaak….

Then, Aurelia emerged from the bathroom.

"All done?"

"Un."

Aurelia nodded her head. Her eyes were squinted. Most probably, she was still sleepy.

She walked past Amelia and headed for her room.

"Thank you."

She voiced her appreciation.

"Good night."

And Amelia wished her a good night.

Clank—!

The door closed and Amelia headed for her own room. Before twisting the doorknob, she turned around slightly.

"Uhm… Do you want to stay in my room tonight?"

"...."

There was no response.

Amelia fixed her attention towards Brandon.

"Ah."

He fell asleep.

What sort of….

All of that, just for him to fall asleep in the end.

"...."

Amelia couldn't help but massage her temple.

Rubbing her shoulders, she realized how cold the room actually was.

Heading inside Brandon's room, she grabbed a blanket from his bed. Approaching Brandon, who laid on the couch inside the living room, asleep, Amelia gently draped the blanket all over him.

"Hehe."

She couldn't help but chuckle, seeing the sight of his vulnerability. If earlier, he was leaking with appeal, now he was nothing but a teenage boy sleeping soundly.

Realizing she should go to sleep herself, Amelia turned and walked away.

"Nmmh…"

"....!"

However, she paused. Brandon held her hand. Amelia turned around, but she could see that his eyes were still shut close.

But she could see the crease in his brows. As if he was uncomfortable.

"Mom…. Dad…. Sis….. Don't go…."

"...."
