Erin suddenly felt like someone had snapped him out of a dream. Using all the strength he had left to push Marc away.
"What are you doing?"
"If you're going to act as my girlfriend in front of my Dad. You will need to be more convincing than that." it meant his disguise. Still with its body entangled in him.
"We didn't agree on this."
"Isn't it a given?" It's back to being its jerk self again. "Don't force yourself if you're not up to it. You'll only end up ruining my plans."
"I'll be waiting for you to come home," he remembered Lucas's words.
If only he could go back. If only that was easy.
"I'll do it," he said closing his eyes firmly.
Marc's face lit up with certain gladness as it turned to ravish his lips once more.
***
Erin could hardly catch his own breath when Marc decided to let go of his lips.
When Marc told him that they had to practice. It didn't make clear that he will have his lips swollen. For a long time of kissing.
"C-can we stop for a while? I may not be able to eat at this rate if we continue on doing it."
Marc let out a wicked grin.
"This is just basic. How would you react if we ever proceed to the next step?"
"Next-step?" now he's really blushing hard.
A silent knock on the door both got their attention.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
"Dinner's ready." It was Dylan.
They both looked at the clock on top of the bed.
"It's already dinner time?" even Marc was surprised to see it himself.
How long had they been locked in the room anyway? No wonder his lips hurt so badly.
This bastard. Did he enjoy torturing him?
***
Everyone seemed suspiciously silent in front of the table. A bunch of dishes aligned, and everything looked delicious. But Erin could only look at them. He needed to be careful not to make known what they were doing earlier.
"Didn't you like what we ordered?" asked Dylan when he didn't dare lift his spoon.
"I-it's not that." even a basic lip movement hurts.
"What's the matter? Your lips hurt?"
Andrei started spitting the food he had just eaten. Coughing violently as if it just choked from it.
He threw a darting look in Marc's direction. This bastard! It's not even enough that he violated his rights. He's even having so much fun teasing him in front of its bodyguards. What a complete jack-ass.
But as he tends to stare longer at its face. His eyes automatically fell on its lips. Those things actually felt good on his mouth while they kiss.
"Would you rather eat something else?" Dylan's question was like a slight kick on the butt. What was he thinking earlier?.
That's when he realized that Marc was also starting at him.
He immediately withdrew his eyes and away from the latter.
Having not eaten much, he decided to go back to his room.
Marc followed from behind him. And as he stopped at the doorway, so did Marc.
"I'd prefer to eat you more."
Out of fear that Marc would actually do as it said. He hurriedly went inside his room and locked the door.
"You do realize that I have keys for that right?"
"Jerk." the next he heard was Marc's loud chuckle outside his door.
How can he possibly sleep with ease? Knowing that this pervert might take advantage of him anytime?

"Let go of me, I will sure to kick that jerk's ass when I see him," Lizzy shouted as Erin and Reese tried to stop her from stepping out of the door. They were at Lizzy's house at the moment.
"Calm yourself down, will you?" Reese uttered. "We barely ate anything, yet you're taking up most of our strength."
"He's right. It's just a kiss, it's not like he took my virginity or anything."
"Just a kiss? Your lips looked like a group of bees had feasted on them."
His being flustered meant that Lizzy was right. Marc definitely feasted on his lips the other day. And it still hurts up to now.
"Don't tell me," Lizzy gave him a suspicious stare. "That you liked it?"
"Of course not." his cheeks tells otherwise.
Even Reese's reaction did not believe him either.
"Have you already had feelings for him?" asked the latter.
He did not know how to answer. It can't be that. He just confirmed a few days ago after seeing Lucas. That he still has feelings for the latter. Otherwise, he would have taken Lucas's advice to go home. And not take Marc's offer instead.
