Chapter 1
"Ishida, it's been a while since your last visit," the bartender greeted Matt when he took the seat at the bar.
Matt only nodded silently.
"The usual?"
"Yes, please," Matt answered quietly but the bartender already made his drink without waiting for him to finish his sentence. Matt drank his alcohol like it was nothing, although he would not drink regularly like he used to, he could still drink a lot.
Matt swirled his glass and looked at the golden colour of the drink under the dim light of the bar. It was a long day at work; he was exhausted.
He then felt someone's gaze on him. Looking through his shoulder slightly, he tried to make the person know he was aware of the staring but the person could care less about it.
Matt sighted and turned around completely only to meet the most intense gaze coming from a woman dressed in red. She did not seem to be embarrassed getting caught staring at him openly. Her red lips curved into a half-smile. She raised her glass and waited for him to do the same.
He awkwardly took his glass and raised it towards her. She locked her gaze with his while gulping down her drink. Putting the glass on the table, she left the place without saying anything.
Matt was left bewildered and slightly intrigued. He ran his hand through his soft blonde hair and shook his head ordering another drink from the bartender.
Matt dropped by Tai's department to make a transfer request for a patient when he saw him talking to a woman. He decided to come back later but Tai spotted him before he could leave.
"Matt, do you need anything?"
Matt stopped and turned around. His words were caught in his throat when he saw her face.
She was the same woman he had seen at the bar a few months ago. She was beautiful but it was the intensity of her eyes that created a deep impression on him.
"Hello," the woman smiled at him.
Matt could feel his heart skip a beat for a moment. His eyes widened for a split second before returning back to normal, acting like she did not affect him even the slightest bit.
"Why don't you come over and let me introduce you to Mimi.
Mimi, this is Yamato Ishida, "Matt" He's the best surgeon in this hospital," Tai rambled excitedly.
"I'll come back again later," Matt cut him short and walked away.
Matt could not concentrate on his work for the whole day. The image of her kept coming back to him. He closed his eyes and remembered seeing the woman in the Red Dress. The way the dress hung perfectly around her waist, highlighting her every curve, shaping her figure perfectly. The way her lips pouted like a petal when she put her drink down. The way her long brown locks swung when she walked away. Her honey coloured eyes, eyes that were piercing into his soul. A strong desire reflecting in her eyes and a shadow that reflected in his own. He was drawn to her intense gaze, but he knew she was trouble the minute he laid eyes on her. He could only compare her to the Scarlet Rose, beautiful yet forbidden, with immense beauty and desire, shield by the thorns around it.
She was driving him crazy.
After a long day of work, he packed up and left the hospital. His feet took him back to the bar where he first met her. He stood in front of the door and sighed. He hesitated to turn the doorknob. Heck, he did not even know why he ended up in front of that place.
"Aren't you going in?" a woman's voice asked behind his ear.
Matt jumped in surprise to see Mimi stand very close to him. Her soft breast brushed his arm slightly.
Mimi chuckled and her voice held that velvety quality to it, "What is it, Dr Ishida?"
Matt was flustered because of her closeness. He could see her cleavage through her low cut blouse. She still had not move away from him, disregarding completely how her body could tempt him in such a feminine way.
His face turned slightly pink. She waited patiently for him to answer.
"N-Nothing. I just thought I should probably not drink, have an early day tomorrow."
"You're such a workaholic. Come; accompany me for a glass of wine. It won't be too much for you I'm sure," she wrapped her arms around his and dragged him.
He was still rooted to his spot, considering if he should accept or refuse her offer. Mimi turned to check why he was not following her.
One look from her was all it took.
"Miss, you're very persistent, aren't you?"
"It's Mimi. Can I call you Matt?" she said with a smile.
Matt chewed his lips in nervousness. He was swept away by her pace, as he followed her inside the bar.
Mimi ordered drinks for both of them. She got some strong alcoholic drinks instead of the two glasses of wine that she promised earlier.
"That?" Matt asked looking at her surprised.
"Afraid you won't be able to handle that?" she smirked.
"Um…"
"Here, drink," she pushed one glass to him.
"Isn't it pretty strong?" he asked. "Are you okay with that?"
"I can handle my alcohol very well Thank you' Mimi said raising an eyebrow.
"Besides you'll be taking me home if it gets too much, won't you?" She asked slyly.
Matt was surprised by her boldness. An image formed in his head, which he quickly pushed away, Matt looked away feeling embarrassed by the direction his thoughts took him.
"I thought you could handle strong" she said taking a sip and looking at him innocently.
Matt locked his gaze with hers and drank his drink in one shot.
"Another" he told the bartender.
She looked at him in surprise and gulped down her own glass, signalling the bartender for a repeat, without taking her eyes off him.
"So, Matt, are doctor usually this busy everyday, or is it just you?" she asked after a while.
"Yeah…it gets busy," he nodded and drank his alcohol.
She asked him some more pointless questions but he always replied with monosyllable answers, sometimes two or three words before the silent crept back in between them.
He did not realize how many glasses he had already as he was thinking about what to say next.
"How long have you been friends with Tai?" she asked suddenly when the silent started to become unbearable.
"He's a childhood friend."
"Awww… how adorable! I want to see little Tai," she brought the end of the glass near her red lips.
Matt swallowed as he paid attention to how the liquid moved down her throat.
"What's wrong?" Mimi asked when she noticed he was looking at her.
"No. I was just…," he could not find the right explanation without making it sexual.
"Are you close with Tai?" Matt tried to change the topic, and the words that tumbled out of his mouth were something that he had been trying to ask her from the beginning.
Mimi was taken aback by his sudden question, as was he. But then, she smiled with the same expression she had the day they met for the first time and said, "What do you think?"
"Ah… I'm sorry for asking," Matt was embarrassed to ask such a question directly. She might tell him it's none of his business.
"Are you perhaps—?"
"I'm sorry. It's getting late, I think I need to leave, tell the bartender to put all the drinks on my tab," saying that he stood up and ran his hand over his hair. He began to walk past her when she reached to his hand and pulled him, taking him by surprise. She slowly turned to face him.
"You're not going to take me home?" She said as she bit her lower lip
Matt hesitated for a minute. He just looked at her. He could feel desire burning all through his body.
One look at her was all he needed.
He silently nodded. She quickly gulped down her drink and followed him out.
Matt hailed a cab and opened the door for her to get in. Mimi looked impressed as she got in.
"Where to?" Matt asked her as he slid in besides her…
Mimi smiled a coy smile and said "I somehow have a feeling we won't be going there.
He could see a flash of desire in her eyes, which reflected his own.
Matt directed the driver to a nearby lodge all the while locking his gaze with hers.
His hand kept caressing and fondling her as the elevator took them to their floor. Not a word had been exchanged between the two since they had got in the cab. Once inside the room, Matt's tongue was inside of Mimi's' mouth without them having a moment to breathe in another word. He pulled her close to him trying to absorb her completely. She pulled back a little and gave him fleeting little kisses, but he would not take a teasing right now as he kept pressing himself on her until her back hit the wall. His kisses were deep and passionate, like he couldn't wait for another second.
"You're more passionate than I thought, Matt," Mimi whispered as she kissed him back with equal passion. She slid her hand up and down his shirt and started to unbutton his shirt quickly, revealing his perfect hard abs.
Matt's hand did the same as her, roaming on top of her blouse to feel her body getting warm under his touch. The silk blouse moved so lightly against her skin; with one swift movement of his hand, he was able to slide it down easily. The sound of their pants filled the room as the heated urgency grew between them like a wildfire.
Matt buried his face in her neck as he started kissing her neck and collarbone. She tilted her head to the side, giving him full access to her throat. She moaned softly against his touch. Matt caressed her thighs with one hand as he lowered his kisses to her breasts. She ran her fingers up and down his abs, feeling his hard body as she slid his shirt to the floor. His other hand was on her waist, pulling her closer to him.
When his fingers found the band of her skirt, he stopped. He looked up towards her, his breathing was ragged and warm as his eyes searched for an approval from her. Mimi bit her lower lip and leaned to kiss his lips to give her consent. Her soft lips grazed the surface before he opened his mouth and let himself be drowned in her scent. Her tongue swirled inside him like the way she messed up with his mind. She drove him crazy and he did not know if he still had it in him after the incident that happened years ago. The thought hosed down his passion as quickly as their kiss ignited his manly needs.
Matt pulled away but Mimi was very eager as she continued to suck the sensitive skin on his neck.
He pushed her away quickly before he could not have a second thought about how he would regret it later.
"We need to stop."
Mimi studied his expression quietly. She took her hand to wipe the edge of her mouth, where the red lipstick smudged even more.
The contrast between her pale skin and the red lips made it looked like a painting of a Scarlet Rose on a white canvas. Matt wanted her. There was no denying that. He thought it over and over again and he wanted every part of her even after thinking about a lot of things. But he knew he had too much baggage.
Matt picked up his shirt and wore it as Mimi stood there watching him silently. He looked at her one more time. He lifted his hand and touched her cheek; he smudged her red lipstick further with his thumb. She closed her eyes, breathing heavily as he looked on. With great difficulty Matt pulled his hand and walked away from her, without turning back.
When Matt put the key down on top of its usual place, he covered his eyes and massaged his frowning temples. He could not believe he passed on the opportunity to make her his.
