I don't know why it took me this long to see that it has been years since I've updated this one; my bad _;
Chapter 11: New Day
Len's P.O.V.
11:35 a.m.
It honestly feels a little weird being able to dress in casual clothing for work. My dress code used to strictly be neutral colors, cardigans, slacks, nothing extra or expressive. So for me to wear my ripped-up high waisted jeans and my cropped hoodie is a little different.
"Did you need a ride home afterwards? I really don't mind if you do." The blunette snapped me out of my thoughts with the sound of his voice.
I broke my gaze away from the window and glanced over to him as he drove us down the streets.
"O-Oh, I mean if you don't mind then sure." I told him.
I kept my gaze onto the blunette as he continued to drive. For some odd reason he hasn't said much throughout the car ride. I even noticed that he hadn't really joked around with me either.
He kept the same monotone expression on his face.
It's not that I care like that, ... but it's not normal.' I thought inwardly to myself briefly before opening my mouth once more.
"Hey. Are you okay, Kaito?" I softly asked him.
For a split second his brows furrowed before he quickly shook it off. "... I honestly don't know. It's just one of those days I guess." He briefly explained.
"Whatever that's on your mind may not be my business, but ... I'm here to lend an ear too. After all, you've done it for me last night." I averted my gaze as I tried to reassure him.
To my surprise a deep chuckle escaped his lips along with the touch of his hand on top of my head.
"You're pretty damn cute when you care." He lowly said. "But it's nothing too much to talk about, it's just my family being annoying. I guess a journalist is investigating my dad because he brought up a question in a press conference of him having two sons. And because I'm a disappointment in my parents eyes, they want me to change my family name so they can't find me."
Right when he said that, he pulled into the back parking lot to the record shop and parked the car.
I took a small breath and eyed him, causing him to look over to me. "...Fuck them. Simple as that. I know they're into politics and shit, but you aren't a disappointment for choosing yourself instead of them" I started. "I-I'm not saying I care, but you're not a disappointment. You've became the best version of yourself the best way you could. Why? Because you did what you felt was right for yourself. So fuck them."
I kept my gaze onto the blunette. I may not know much about his family in depth except for what he tells me, but no matter what, he doesn't deserve something as severe as what they're trying to impose on him. ... I honestly don't blame him for running away.
His eyes softened before averting his eyes towards his lap, reaching over to undo his seatbelt.
"Hey..." He slowly started after a few seconds. "They were idiots for not letting you be a counselor." And it was then I caught a faint smirk creep onto his lips right before he decided to lift his gaze back up to me.
I eased a bit and allowed myself to smile a little myself.
"Yeah? I wish they saw that, but at least someone does..." I awkwardly laughed near the end as the car fell silent once more, just staring at one another.
Why do I feel ... shy?
With a single movement my body began to tense up rapidly as he moved his hand over to capture my chin, keeping my gaze onto him.
He's perverted. Sarcastic. Straightforward. Helpful. Sweet. Persistent. ... An enemy of those who don't deserve him, and yet he keeps it pushing.
I shifted uncomfortably as the temperature in the car became warm. Maybe it was me? It feels as though I'm going to start sweating any moment. Whatever it is ... please hurry already'
He carefully slid his thumb across my bottom lip and sighed. It was then that he allowed his hand to fall away from my face.
"... I think you should go inside." He finally said.
I blinked twice to snap myself out of it. "E-Eh?" I managed to question "W-What the hell was that about?-"
"If you want me to shove my tongue in your mouth and make out with you, you can stay. But I'm giving my all to hold back. Especially now." He cut me off immediately and gave a serious look.
Sh-Shove his tongue in my mouth?!
It was like my mind was torn right in the middle between keeping the door shut and placing my fingers on the door handle. And the more I froze, the more I knew where I was leaning more towards.
"I ... should go to work" I managed to utter out the closer he leaned towards me.
"Then why don't you.." He breathed out as his nose began to brush against mine.
My heart feels like it's about to scream. Like it's going to rip out of my chest or some shit-' My thoughts ran rampant along with my ears growing hot. The sound of a deep chuckle escaped his lips
And within a second, my body stiffened immediately at the sensation of his hot tongue slithering into my mouth as he placed his hand on the back of my head, crashing our lips together.
I'd be a sucky liar if I told myself that I didn't want this.
"Mm-!" I slightly whimpered as I tried to mentally pull myself together as his tongue explored inside hungrily, making my toes curl inside my sneakers.
Maybe I'm the hungry one?
With a slight tilt to our heads he began to suck on my tongue lightly, making me stick it out more for him to taste whatever I can offer.
His tongue tastes just as I would've thought. A hint of sweetness mixed with smoke.
Addictive.
Slowly he parted away to look down at me, showing the saliva string connecting to the both of our lips. I hazily gazed back at him with half-lidded eyes, trying to catch my breath.
"That ... felt good" he breathed out, with each wave of his voice entering my ears causing my core to ache for more.
"Y-Yeah" I automatically admitted. The more I eyed him, the more I was tempted to stay to keep going, but I couldn't. "*ahem*" I briefly coughed. "I-I should head inside."
"Er, yeah. I'll pick you afterwards if you still want me to." He then pressed the button to unlock the doors. "Just text me when you're about to be off and I'll be here."
I nodded my head and opened the door before saying goodbye.
"By the way, don't get used to that! U-Us kissing and shit" I clarified to the bluenette, catching him off guard.
He blinked twice before cooly saying, "Oh, I will" followed by a wink. "And so will you"
"Bite me" I retorted, followed by me giving him the middle finger.
"An invite? I mean sheesh, I can bite you, spank you-" And right when he was mid-sentence, I got out and slammed his door shut.
Despite me slamming his door, he rolled the passenger window down and began laughing. "Did you forget I can roll my window down?"
I continued to walk away and flip him off as I continued my way towards the shop entrance. But in truth, I was flustered.
Kaito's P.O.V.
I couldn't help but roam my tongue over my lips to try to savor whatever taste I had left on them.
I could only think of doing it again. Holding him closer. Smelling his sweet scent.
"I know I like him."
