Tara felt she should've said no but some part of her wanted this stupid squabble to end.
"Okay".She affirmed
"Can we go to my place?".Julian asked
"What?!" Tara blushed."What do you mean we should go to your place?"
"Your mom's home so we can't go to yours".Julian said
She wondered how he knew her mom was home.
"Fine then,But no funny business".She warned
"What if you want it?".He smirked before walking ahead of her.
Tara could not stop blushing as they headed to his house.She totally forgot she was mad at him.
"Get it together Tara, you're supposed to be mad at him".She muttered
"Did you say something?". Julian turned
"Nope".She said quickly
"Well,here we are".Julian announced
Tara couldn't believe it.Her boyfriend lived in a freaking mansion!!
Well,she should've guessed when he brought that car to pick her up the other day.
"Welcome,Master Julian".A voice said
"Who said that?".Tara violently turned,she looked around for any sign of imminent danger.
"Relax".Julian laughed.He pointed to a speaker on the wall
"Ohh".Tara flushed
She couldn't keep her eyes on one spot.The courtyard was massive,They seemed to have every specie of ornamental flower.She spotted sunflowers, daffodils,lilies,and a large rose bush at the corner.The scent of flowers filled the air and seemed to put her in a good mood.
"This is amazing".She commented
"This way".Julian turned to the left
"The entrance is this way".Tara pointed to the house.
"Trust me".He winked
Tara obliged and he lead her into the servant's quarters.
"What are we doing here?".Tara asked
"Shhhh,Keep your voice down".Julian covered her mouth."Will you do that?".
"Yes".She nodded
Julian gingerly removed his palm from her mouth.
"Why did you do that?".Tara whispered
"I don't want them to hear".Julian replied as he continued walking
"Who's them?".Tara asked
"That".Julian pointed to a receiver mounted on the wall.
"Why?".
"I'll explain later, Let's go to my room".
"Okay,then why are we here?".
Julian gave no answer.He led Tara down the hallway and into a room.
"Is this your room?"
"Of course not". Julian refused
He opened a trap door behind the bed and crawled in.
"Are you sure this is your house?"Tara asked."Because it feels like we're breaking in"
"Positive".Julian affirmed
Tara noticed the tunnel was clean and airy.She wanted to ask why but didn't want to seem too nosy.
They crawled for a few minutes before Julian stopped.
"This is it".He opened the trap door and poked his head to see if anyone was around.He got out and offered Tara his hand
"It's your room,why are you acting like a criminal?".Tara took his hand.
"You have no idea" Julian sat on the bed. "Make yourself at home I guess".
"Thank you".Tara suddenly found herself getting flustered.She was in Julian's room alone
She sat at his study table.The books were arranged neatly at a corner of the table.She didn't know he was the orderly type.
His room was pretty big,as expected of someone who lived in a mansion.His bed was like twice the size of hers,The closet was to the left and above his bed hung a picture of some kid.
"Want something to drink or..?".Julian asked
"No,I'm good".Tara declined
