Chapter 7
Ichigo sat near the stage when Orihime climbed on it. All the lights went off except for the spotlight that is focused on the stage. He watched, fascinated, as she stepped into the light, in white dress, under the stars. All the guys went screaming.
When the tropical dance beat started to play he didn't have a choice but to gawk while Orihime's body is in sync with the music. She was graceful, boneless, sexy, and incredibly beautiful.
He didn't dare to take his eyes off of her not when she is slowly removing her sarong (A long piece of cloth worn wrapped around the body and tucked in either at the waist or arms). She was giving them a "preview" until her sarong was gone, showing off her body clothed with just her bikini. Her sarong was like a extension of her arms- it was like a ribbon of a gymnast and a cape. The boys were going wild.
Ichigo, on the other hand, was just mesmerized and hard.
Orihime's hands moved over her skin sensually as if she loved what she felt. She was teasing them, making him imagine how she would feel in his hands. He would bet her skin would be damn soft… like silk.
When she turned while swinging her hips, a realization hit Ichigo; and he didn't know wether to be happy or be annoyed.
He was going to travel cross- country with a flagpole on his pants.
Orihime is catching her breath when she finished her dance. She loved dancing. It was exhilarating. It made her feel good. She didn't need to see the face of her audience to know if they enjoyed the show. She could hear then onstage, cheering, making cat calls. She was not offended. It was an entertainer's job to entertain. The groups reaction, made her glad that she entertained them well. And she didn't even have to take off all her clothes.
She looked for Ichigo right after she descends the stage. She was curious about his reaction. He stretched his hand towards her. When their eyes met she momentarily zoned out. He was looking at her like he wanted to haul her over his shoulder and carry her to his cave. And for some reason, she wanted him to.
"Is my performance okay?" she asked. Thank kami, my voice was normal. I don't want him to realize the butterflies in my stomach just because of his intense stare.
"I'm nearly on the verge of spontaneous combustion."
The way he was looking at her melts her insides. She wished the butterflies there would melt off, too. They didn't. Damn him. "Really."
"Hmm…"
She smiled teasingly. "Are you flirting with me again?"
He grasped her side causing her to jump. She felt like she was being electrocuted.
"What do you think?"
She licked her lower lip. She can't formulate a reply, her mind was blank. They stayed in that position before he focused his attention to Keigo. Ichigo removed his hands and allowed her to talk to him.
"Wow!" He said, his eyes are full of admiration. "I can't say a word."
"Thanks." She noticed his friends behind him.
"My friends wanted to meet you. I hope you don't mind."
She simply secured her sarong around her waist. She felt like some of these men would devour her. If she was any other girl and was not the daughter of Barragan Louisenbairn, she is sure that these men would do what they please to her. But she knew how to handle men like these. Joke, flirt, smile, and laugh. Make them think you're enjoying the attention but let them know you have the right to choose who you want to be with.
She danced with the few of them because she was expected to. "No touching or grabbing" was the rule. Keigo also emphasized it to the group. She received indecent proposals, business cards, and tips while dancing.
She kept on glancing at Ichigo drinking beer at their table. Even if she can't see his eyes, she knows that his looking at her. For some reason it made her more… sexier. She wanted to dance with him. For him. To find if she can bring out the Ichigo she met at Tokyo.
Keigo lead her to his cottage after one hour of dancing. Ichigo stayed at the door, preventing her to go inside. She noticed his darkening aura even if he didn't speak.
"I'm fine." She whispered in his ear before following Keigo inside his cottage.
When the door closed he took the box with an envelope attached on it from his drawer. "Here."
She accepted it with a smile."Thanks."
"My number is inside the envelope. Call me if you have time."
She smiled and nodded before leaving the cottage. He only glanced at her when she stepped outside the cottage. His face was still void of any emotions. "Let's go." He started walking.
She quickly followed.
