When Edric took the professor out, he ordered the bouncer to hail a cab. Scarlett opened her eyes upon hearing the public transport arriving. She had Dylan's car keys but it would be only sensible to not drive when she was out of her box.
The boy bent forward and put down the girl on her feet. When she set her heels on the ground, a good few seconds were taken by the girl to maintain the balance and not trip while making a fool of herself. For that, she used the fit arms of the boy She wouldn't want to have an egg on her face in front of a seductive playboy.
"You", their arms were interlaced like strands of hair pleated in a fine braid. The bouncer rushed to the cab and held the door open for the girl to get in but she didn't.
"You are hot", she set her eyes at the boy whose hair was dishevelled, lips slightly swollen from the intimate session, stare bestowed to the girl in his arms. The top buttons of the shirt were also undone. Scarlett couldn't count how many but enough to give a decent view of his broad chest.
She held onto his arms to not fall and didn't have to tiptoe for what she was about to do since she was wearing high heels, making her reach the shoulders of the boy. So, she simply leaned close to his face and the next thing that the boy had already inferred was taking place but what he couldn't assume was the change in the territory where the pair of lips would be dropping. His cheek.
Scarlett pressed her lips gently to his cheek and smiled when she felt the boy tensing up under the touch of rosy petals. Her lips had barely brushed against his skin when she pulled back and gazed up into his face, still smiling.
"But not of the same age as me."
The boy who was appearing all cool could be seen losing his calm as he looked at the girl with puzzled expressions. With the facial expressions, she told him that he was hot would have anyone tricked into believing that she was indirectly telling the person to take her. But what emerged after that was entirely opposite.
No other girl had shut her eyes to the opportunity of kissing his lips but the girl simply went for his cheek instead. Over the night, after amassing her intense, constant gaze for hours, he had reached on the fact that the girl was desiring for her time with the boy like other girls.
Honestly, he was hoping for her to walk up to him anytime but when he saw her leaving, he pushed off the girl on his lap and followed the professor. He couldn't care less about her tumbling down the stairs but she was looking too hot in that black dress to be resisted by a playboy and perhaps, the boy had also imagined about the mere likelihood of taking her out. Perhaps. But he wasn't a low of a human to take advantage of someone who didn't seem in all senses so he simply decided to put her in a cab and get going.
He was still holding the girl in his eyes when she turned around and fumbled her way into the cab. The bouncer shut the door once she was inside but she rolled down the window and craned her face out.
"94027, West, Main Street, house number 8. Drop the car to this address", hurling the keys towards the boy, she flashed him a cheerful, harmless smile and plummeted on the seat.
How could she give the keys to a stranger? What if he stole it? It was very unlikely of a playboy to do such cheap stuff but let's say that the driver would never drive it to the real destination? Well, then that would be what Dylan deserved for leaving the girl on her own alone in a club. It was the plan all along but they never decided on parting ways in the middle of the night.
The car had droved away but Edric was standing in the same stance. The feeling of the professor's lips still lingering on his skin. He had never felt a touch lasting. If anything, it was him leaving his touches and marks over the bodies of girls, not the other way around. It had happened the first time with him.
"Since when the playboy has started sending drunkards to their homes?", after observing the whole scene from distance, Natalie finally marched forward to the boy.
"You are regretting that I should have also sent you to your home instead of taking you to the hotel?", breaking through the mysterious and spellbinding haze the girl had created around him, Edric welcomed his ex with a subtle smirk.
"I have never regretted any minute of that night", after her one-night stand with the boy, the paparazzi clicked some pictures of Edric exiting the hotel. Soon after Natalie was also captured leaving.
Many scandals broke out, rumours circulated for days as her agency didn't release any statement regarding the matter because the model had strictly abstained them from doing so. She planned to use the scandal to be together with Edric but that never happened. The boy didn't give any attention to whatever the media was writing about him. The rumours died down themselves after some days.
"As expected. But you should wake up now. It's long over", he gave the keys to the bouncer after telling him the address and walked away from the place, leaving Natalie clenching and unclenching her fists, mind filling with indignation.
She wasn't an ordinary girl but the most demanded model of the industry. If she wanted something, she would have it. If she couldn't, she would destroy it to not be owned by anyone else.
"It will be only over when I decide it to be."
