Chaotic Romance

Times like this made Azarel regret a bit having the kind of personality that he currently has

It resulted in him not having a kind hearted friend. He can't blame Liza much as he was sure that if their situation was reversed, he would also act in the same way

He would make fun of his friend for acting like a love sick highschooler. I mean, birds of the same feathers flocks together, Liza and Azarel shared with each other

Most of the time, how Liza would react in a certain situation is also the same reaction that Azarel would have

"Good luck to you, my boy. But seeing how you freak out over just a simple feeding session, let's see if you can do what you had planned" Liza said with a laugh before pointing at a certain direction where Evren is walking on

Seeing that man, Azarel originally planned on running away again when Liza holds him in the wrist

"Azarel, do you want to be even more clicher than you already are? Running once is more than enough. Don't make me feel ashamed on your behalf more than I already do" Liza said with a sigh though she just wants to see how Azarel would react while interacting with Evren after realizing that he indeed might have romantic feelings for him

"You bitch, hitting my pride like that" Azarel grumbled. As to not make himself 'lower' that he is now thanks to actually having feelings for someone, Azarel can only be courageous and confront Evren

Since he already decided to divorce him then why not do it today, right?

"Az! Az! What happened to you back there?" Evren asks, his face riddled with question marks

He was completely confused at how Azarel reacted earlier. He runs as if his life fully depends on it

"Oh, that, h-hahaha. I-it's because..." Azarel wants to say that he wouls be divorcing Evren and that it would be better if they don't meet each other for the time being but his words seems to have been stuck at his throat, giving Evren a chance to speak again

"Here, I saved some roasted marshmallows for you. But they might not be as good as the ones that is fresh from the fire. Do you want me to roast some more for you?" Evren asks, his eyes seemingly pure

Although he wa a lover of luxuries, Evren also has many different sides of himself. He was not a one dimensional person

He likes expensive things but it seems like he also likes roastes marshmallows judging at how enthusiastic he was with it

"T-that..." Azarel stuttered like a teenage girl

The way Evren looks right now was so pure. It's like this person is just a sweet little kid and not the gold digger that he is

He even has such a caring side as he reserved some roasted marshmallows for Azarel and even asks if he wants freshly cooked ones

After realizing the sprouting feelings in his heart, Azarel also gained a rose tinted glass that always romanticized and make a big deal of every little thing that Evren does for him

With how 'caring' and 'sweet, Evren was, how can Azarel break the bad news for him?

Who would have thought that the merciless and cold hearted Azarel wouls one day be unable to hurt the feelings of another person?

"S-sure, p-please cook fresh ones for me" Azarel answered in a defeated voice and Evren nodded his head

"Alright! Just don't run away again lest the marshamallows turned cold again" He said before walking back to the front of the beach house where the griller is located

While watching Evren's retreating figure, Azarel slouched his back, feeling really defeated

"Pfft!! What was that? I thought you'll break the news for him?! Hahahaha!" Liza said while laughing loudly

Her womanly poise vanishes a bit at how hard she was laughing while holding her stomach

"Hahahaha! You should have seen your face earlier! You look extremely constipated! Hahahaha!" The woman comtinued her laughter, giving Azarel an urge to drag his friend into the sea and drown her in there

"I-It's just too much if I say it to him while we are still in the beach! I'll say it to him later when we returned!" Azarel justified himself, not admitting the fact that Evren's unexpected pureness has hit him in the heart

——-

After Azarel braced himself, he also returned with Liza and he was just in time when Evren finished roasting the marshamallows 

"Az, come here! It's done!" Evren said happily and he grab a stick with three marshm in it

He even carefully blew on it to lessen the heat before placing it in front of Azarel's lips

Azarel can feel his heart palpitating again but since this is not the first time anymore, he managed to defeat the urge to run away for the second time as he took a bite of the marshmallow 

He doesn't know whether it was an illusion or what but he feels like the marshmallow was really sweet this time. Seemingly forgetting the fact that marshamallows are naturally sweet and there's nothing new to it

"How is it? It tastes good, right?" Evren asks with twinkling eyes. It's not like he cooked a dish that is extremely hard to make for him to be this proud

However, Azarel's rose tinted glass just made him feel that Evren is cute in silly way

"Yes, yes, it's good" he replied while shaking his head helplessly 

As if it was a natural thing already, Azarel took another bite of the marshmallow while Evren was still holding it

However, he accidentally smeared some in the side of his lips

With a chuckle, Evren uses his thumb to wipe the marshmallow stain before licking the same thumb

Azarel watched that with a gulp and cursing inside him. Is Evren seducing him or what?

"Oh God, I cannot take this. This is just too disgusting" Liza said to himself after seeing the sickly sweet lovey dovey moment of those two

This is the type of scene that Liza never wants to see in her entire life!

As a result, she decided to retreat early lest these two feed her with even more dog food that she would just want to puke out

"Y-you..." Azarel mumbled, not really knowing what the things he wants to say is

"Hmm?" Evren hum as a response while staring at Azarel with an inquiring look

Azarel wants to curse himself at how he s acting right now. In the past, if his life is a drama series, the genre would be mature and sexual but now, it seems to he transforming into a teen drama where the protagonist would be shy 99% of the time

When seeing those kind of stories, Azarel always rolled his eyes at them. He did not expect that he would now realize why those heroines are acting like that

As to not make a fool of himself, Azarel made an excuse for calling Evren. "S-swim... do you want to swim?" He asks and Evren furrowed his brows

"It's already dark. Swimming right now wouldn't be fun and it's also dangerous" Evren answered, feeling that Azarel is reallt weird today

Who would even want to swim when the sea is already that dark? It's too scary since you wouldn be able to see anything

Realizing that his excuse was also kind of embarrassing, Azarel release an awkward cough before making another excuse

"I-I meant in the pool" he said and this time, it was Evren that thought that he was a pool

Indeed, the beachhouse also has a pool in it 

"Is it the ones that would glow with different lights?" Evren asks excitedly 

He have seen pools like that in the internet or tv series but he has never been in one before

"Well, yeah, it has those lights" Azarel answered. He wants to be as far away from Evren as possible throughout this whole trip but he just has to invite him to go swimming. Out of all the various excuses he could have made, he just has to use the one wherein he would be 'forced' to spend more time with Evren

"Alright! Let's go!" Evren readily agreed before looking at Azarel again

"Do you know how to swim?" He asks and the other man nodded his head

"Isn't that too late to ask after I invited you?" Azarel asks back with a chuckle

"Heheheh then how about we compete to see who can swim faster?" Evren suggested excitedly 

With his enthusiastic he was, Azarel do not have the heart to refuse the challenge and so, he can only accept it

"Great!"

With that, the two returned to the beack house and went to the pool connected to it

Since both of them were wearing beach shirt in the top and swimming trunks in the bottom, they don't have to change clothes anymore
