Another Bad Boy Down

Since the water is only waist high, Neo easily got himself out of the water. Once he reached the grassy field he then tilted his head and banged his right ear into his right palm. Water must have entered his ears. He did the same with his left ear but by the way his scowl is deepening more and more by the second, I can conclude that it's not helping one bit. I gulped as I unconsciously stared at his dripping wet body. A puddle of water started forming underneath him. I can only imagine how uncomfortable he is right now, water must have entered his shoes as he bent his body to untie the knot of his shoelace.

He didn't say anything and only continued on taking off his shoe. I took it as a chance to slip away from the eminent danger. I slowly placed my headphone over my neck and quietly took a step towards my sketch pad which is innocently lying on the grass. I was about to lift it up when a cold dangerous voice sounded right behind me.

"What do you think you're doing?" Neo said in a cold and irritated tone of voice.

"Picking my stuff." I said in a matter-of-fact tone of voice. Honestly, my nerves are sending distress signals through out my whole body right this moment but I need to act calm and unaffected so that he won't sense how panicky I am right now.

After saying that, I nonchalantly picked up my sketch pad and pencil. I then calmly took a step forward but was abruptly stopped by Neo. He forcefully pulled my right arm, my body spun around in a 180° turn. I was not able to balance myself in time and due to the wet grass beneath our feet, I slipped and fell butt first.

Ugh... My tailbone hurts!! I wanted to massage my aching butt but the devil is still gripping my right arm! My arm feels like it will rip any minute now. "Let go of me." I said with indignation. I gritted my teeth and angrily yelled "FADJIE BAR! LET GO! NOW!!"

"No" Neo said, his voice livid.

I stubbornly pulled my hand free from his grip but his slender hand is like an iron rod coiled around my fragile flawless arm. I am sure that bruises will turn up on it later. I then tried kicking him using my right leg but he already figured out my plan and intercepted my move, he brutally pushed back to the ground my right leg. A frail 'thud' sounded followed by a shout of pain which came from my lips as I winced in pain.

I felt anxious and terrified when he suddenly knelt in front of me. Water droplets dripping from his body drenched my clothes and bare skin.

Since today is Wednesday, a no uniform day, I am currently wearing a pair of black shorts, white printed v-neck shirt and a cardigan. It feels awkward to see Neo kneeling near my legs when I am only wearing a pair short, his grip on my hand only worsened our position. I braced myself and bravely moved my legs sideward to gain more distance from him and my beautiful legs, but because of this my upper body is now closer to his body.

I can now clearly see the water sliding down that sexy adams apple of his. The sun shone over him making the water droplets sparkle over his pale white skin. My cheeks feels hot as I imagine our awkwardly intimate position at the moment.

Those black orbs of his studied my every movement. I told myself to focus and not get distracted by the devils assets. After my inner pep talk, I bravely glared straight into those bottomless black orbs of his, unwilling to admit defeat.

"Why did you push me into the water?" Neo said, his face inching closer to mine.

"You pervert! Why were you on my lap?" I spat back at him.

"I was sleeping." Neo said.

"What?! Do I look like a pillow to you?" I said in irritation.

He eyed me from head to toe before a sarcastic smile formed on his lips. "You won't pass as a pillow. You're too skinny for that." he said without any reservation.

"Then why were you sleeping on my lap then??!! You pervert!!" I yelled at him. Not minding if his eardrums gets damaged or not.

"I don't have a choice. You stole my spot." Neo nonchalantly said.

"Why didn't you wake me up then?! This is such a huge place! You could have chosen somewhere else to sleep." I said to him, irritated by his lousy excuses.

Due to my anger, I can't feel the soreness on my body anymore. All my senses are focused in making the demon king pay for hurting me and taking advantage of me as I slept like an angel earlier.

I read in novels tons of romantic scenes of two lovers under a huge tree living in their own worlds. The leaves would rustle above them following the direction of the wind as the two underneath it would happily converse about the life that they have shared and would share in the future. Leaning ones head over the shoulder of the other as they happily and comfortably intertwine their hands as they lean over the tree trunk staring at the clear blue sky.

A must have scene in every school romance novels, but what is this?!

Tree - ✓

cool wind - ✓

clear blue sky - ✓

wonderful weather - ✓

rustling of leaves - ✓

a beautiful and young maiden - ✓

a comfortable and sweet conversation - X

a handsome gentleman - XX

love - X X X X X X X X to the nth power!!

Ugh... I didn't expect my first under the tree romantic scene would be together with this devil and in such a weird and awkward situation too.

"Are you telling me to waste my time on waking up a log from its slumber? You looked like a gorilla who decided to sleep after exhausting itself, swinging from tree to tree." Neo sardonically said.

"A what?!" I exclaimed. I was about to retaliate but for some reason, Neo suddenly swayed and in seconds his heavy body is over my lap again. I also almost completely fell to the ground if it wasn't for my left hand supporting my upper body.

"Your hot--" I blurted out.
