Chapter 18 - Resisting The Temptation

Eric gulped. He wanted to pull me onto the bed and lavish me properly, with the right mindset and feelings for me. However, he didn't want me to be scared either. He didn't want to make me feel uncomfortable about him being in my house in any way. He then smiled at me and asked "Do you have any food? I'm a little hungry, despite all of the cake that we ate."

I nodded. "Sure, I'll fix something up for you and me right away! How does chicken goujons sound?" He smiled at that as I disappeared downstairs. The moment I did, he fell hopelessly onto my bed, blushing. When I said such sweet things, he could barely contain himself with the self-control that he had.

Since the next day was Sunday, and I had four early tutoring sessions in the morning, I left a note along with some breakfast to reheat on the counter and left Eric sleeping on my couch. After my long sessions and after countless questions that made my head hurt a little bit, I left the school grounds exhausted. I walked out of the main doors and down to the main gate, my head in the clouds wondering what I should get for dinner when I lifted my head. A dashingly handsome boy was waiting outside for me, his long black hair fastened in a loose man bun.

And of course, he was wearing his usual nonchalant expression. As he raised his head and saw me, he smiled and came off from leaning against the wall. He then put out his hand. "Good work today." I smiled and took his hand happily, walking beside him as we got back to my house quicker than expected. Little did I know that a figure from the shadows observed us, and then disappeared.

After setting out a cute meal for lunch, I ate it up heartily. I'm always starving after a study session. "Slow down, you're going to choke!" I smiled while I took a sip of water. "Sorry, I'm just starving. i can't eat during my sessions because it would look unprofessional. Perks of having a high metabolism! You never gain weight, no matter what you eat. Downside of having a high metabolism! You're constantly hungry!"

Eric smiled and then reached out, wiping some sauce from the corner of my mouth and proceeded to lick it off of his thumb. "You're right, it is tasty." I couldn't help but blush a little. He's such a tease sometimes...

While washing the dishes, Eric peeked through the door to the small kitchen and blushed when he saw my skirt and jumper were a little rolled up, revealing a little bit more of my leg and my thin waist. As I was washing away the dishes, he immediately imagined me on the counter, crying out his name as he made l*ve to me... he quickly dismissed those thoughts and came in from behind me, pulling at my jumper.

"E-Eric?" He smiled and asked "Can I help in any way? I still need to find out how I'm going to pay rent." I looked up at him and turned around, smiling sweetly. "Simple. Just don't go anywhere without telling me first. I want you to do that for the rest of your life!" He blushed at that request, glancing at me while I smiled at him so innocently. Then, he slowly advanced and leaned in closer to my lips.

Stopping before they landed, he said "You're welcome to pull away now. I don't want to scare you, Anna." He then caressed my bottom lip, making my heart jump up and down. I blushed like a fool, I didn't need a mirror to tell me that. Then, I said something very bold. "You don't have to ask for permission to have a kiss." And then, our lips touched and we started to kiss.

My arms went around the back of his neck while his went around my waist. He lifted me up onto the free counter, kissing me and coming on strong. Gosh, was this what it feels like to be kissed by the person that you like? If so... I never want it to end.
