Chapter 4: Flirting and Talking
Eric
乁 ˘ o ˘ ㄏ Aishhh You really are impatient *puts hands in the air, with the bag of pudding in one hand and walks towards him* I mean no harm, I promise
Arthur
*as soon as Eric was in reachable distance, Arthur pins him down to the table* We'll see about that now, shall we?
Arthur
You better start talking
Eric
*this guy really is very hostile, guess I need to melt his heart*
Eric
Is this your usual interrogation technique? Not very original for a romance theme, but I'll admit it's giving me butterflies *winks*
Eric
Instead of this boring talk, why don't we have a very interesting talk, I mean the mood is right, the position is good, and I even brought a delicious pudding for dessert
Arthur
*Arthur's heart started hammering in his rib cage, but there was no way he would admit to it. He tried to calm his heart down and pushed Eric further down* Enough of your shameless flirtatious behavior, just tell---
Eric
*chuckles* Do you really think you can keep me down? Forgotten about my last time's escape so soon?
Eric
*huffs* I didn't want to say this, but it seems I need to remind you that I'm letting you pin me down because I want to talk. I could have killed you the minute I entered this room, but I didn't. Let's relax and have a normal chat, alright?
Arthur
*Arthur gives this a little thought and realizes that Eric was indeed right, his skills as an assassin were unmatched, and he could have indeed killed him right in the beginning. Although unsure, he decided to give Eric the benefit of doubt and loosened his grip on him, allowing him to stand normally* Fine, but I'm still on my guard...
Eric
*claps hand playfully* Glad to see you are in a good mood (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧ Now, this is some pudding I brought for you, enjoy it *puts the bag on the table*
Arthur
Ugh please skip this bullsh!t and get to the main talk, what brings you here all the way to my office? What do you want from me?
Eric
*puppy eyes* Aw I'm almost hurt, can't I visit you because I missed you?
Arthur
Yeah right, and I should believe that, coming from an assassin
Eric
I even brought a pudding to win over your trust y'know, but it's alright I can always chase you (ㆁωㆁ)
Eric
But seeing that you are so curious, how about a deal? Let me spend some time with you and I might answer one of your questions
Arthur
*skeptical* Alright, if that's what you wish.
Eric
Amazing!!! Now, have this pudding!!! *Eric opened the bag containing the pudding and shoved it right into Arthur's mouth before he could protest any further*
Arthur
*before he could even understand what Eric was doing, the pudding was shoved into his mouth*
Arthur
*Arthur's mind registered the sweet taste melting in his mouth as he unconsciously swallowed the pudding. Unknowingly, a soft smile formed on his lips, he really had been craving for something sweet under all that workload*
Arthur
*the words slipped out of his mouth without much thought*
T- thanks I really need that *smiles softly*
Eric
*Those words... Eric heard another voice ringing inside his head, saying the same words with the same sweet smile, closing his eyes as the memory resurfaced*
Aiden
T- thanks, I really needed that *smiles gently* you truly are the best......
Before the sentence could finish, the memory began fading away from Eric's mind as he watched in despair Aiden's figure disappearing
Eric
*Eric shook himself out of his memory and realized that tears were rolling down his eyes* Ah- n-no
Arthur
*Arthur saw Eric zoning out and was shocked on seeing the man's tears staining his face which screamed the expression of helplessness*
Arthur
*he didn't know why his heart hurt seeing Eric in pain, his hand unconsciously reached out to comfort him, wanting to make the assassin feel a little better*
