Devilishly handsome

Next morning...

Maru woke up in a daze.

Slightly opening her eyes she saw a man laying next to her. The man was so attractive and Maru couldn't help but to raise her hand and touch his face.

" So handsome...is this the true definition of the word devilishly handsome?" Maru whispered to herself.

Her fingers trailed through the man's thick dark brows down to his perfect high-bridged nose. His strong jaw made him look very manly and he has full lips and angular chin.

But the most attractive part of his face were his eyes. He had his eyes closed yet one can see that it was beautiful with a long ang upturned lashes.

The beautiful sight made Maru think that she was still in a dream. She couldn't get enough of what's infront of her.

Her fingers continued to trail down to his adam's apple, feeling his broad chest and biceps. It was hard and firm. Maru thought that the man was very masculine.

Seemingly enjoying what she was doing, her hand began to drift down to his abdomen, hoping she could have a touch of his abs too. It's rare for her to have a dream like this. And it felt so real.

" What do you think you're doing?.." a man's gruffy voice was heard and her hand was abruptly caught by a large one.

Maru thought that it was just a part of her dream so she took advantage of the opportunity and groped around the man's body.

She was was so shocked that her eyes opened widely in horror. A realization dawned on her.

A few seconds later, she let out a piercing shriek.

She pulled back her hand and immediately scoot backwards until she fell on the floor.

"aarghh,...that hurts."

And as if it wasn't bad enough to wake up in a stranger's bed, she realized that she was only wearing her underwears.

Maru grabbed the bed covers and wrapped herself at a very fast speed.

There was nothing weird she can feel in her body but she still asked him to be sure.

"Did we?.."

The man raised his brows and asked back in an amused tone.

" What do you think?.."

Maru heave a sigh of relief and tried her best to calm down. She should act like a mature woman and act like this isn't new to her. She had read a lot about situations like this in novels. And the women would usually tell the stranger to forget what happened and to go on with their lives like they've never met. And the guy would also agree. They call it a "one night stand".

But they haven't even done that thing, so what do they call it? She thought maybe she should still do the same.

That's right. That's what i should do. Maru nodded to herself while gripping the cover on her body. She said.

" Mister,. I don't know what happened last night. I must have been too drunk. Since nothing really happened between us, how about we forget about this incident and think that we've never met?.." Maru said in embarrassment.

"You mean...nothing happened to you." the man said coldly.

" Ah??...Wh..what do you mean? Did something happen to you? you seem fine though.." Maru looked up and down on his well toned body and gulped as she asked nervously. He was only wearing his boxers. And since Maru got the covers to herself his body was exposed.

" Why don't you try to recall what you did last night, plus, have you forgotten what you were doing to me just a moment ago?" the man was still lying in bed looking at her intently.

Maru felt her face burned upon hearing what he said. Remembering what she has done just a moment ago she was so ashamed.

" I didn't mean it. I thought I was dreaming." she said embarrassedly as she looked down and bit on her lip. Each word becoming softer and softer.

" But why am I here? and where are my clothes?"

" I saw you walking on the street with no clothes on last night, I thought I'd be a gentleman and brought you back." he said seriously.

" What???,No!!!! Really? don't lie to me.." Maru was stupefied by his words her face paled.

The man let out a chuckle. He was about to roll out of bed when Maru grabbed a pillow and hit him.

"You dare to make fun of me?.." she was going crazy by the mix of emotions she was in.

What did she get herself into?

Maru turned around and headed to the bathroom in anger.

It's all Vivi's fault. I shouldn't have let her drag me last night. I'm such a good girl now I'm shamelessly taking a shower in a stranger's bathroom without his permission.

She stood under the shower in daze. After a moment of thinking so hard, scenes of what happened from the previous night flashed back.

She stumbled to the wrong lounge and when she saw the man she pounced on him cried while hugging him, never wanting to let go. She even remembered that she mistakenly thought that he was Pipo. Her long lost childhood sweetheart.

After that, When they reached his place she took off her clothes on her own saying that it was too hot.

She didn't want to part with him that she even waited for him outside the bathroom while he was taking a shower. And after that, she was the one who pulled him to the bed and hugged him to sleep.

Oh my god! Oh my god! What have I done? Is that what they say the alcohol could give you spirit? It only gave me spirit to be shameless. How am I supposed to face that man? Argghh..!!!!

Maru didn't know what to do and stayed in the bathroom for a long time. She was thinking about what to tell him and how to apologize to him when she heard a knock on the door followed by the man's words.

" Open up, I brought you clothes.." his voice was cold.

She hurriedly walked to the door and slighty opened it sticking only her hand out. Soon her hand was stuffed with a paperbag.

There was medium sized white shirt, jeans and underwears all in the right sizes.

She didn't think much about it and began to put on the clothes.

And then, she was in a dilemma again.

She really didn't know how to face that man.
