Somewhere inside the Grafity Hotel- two woman in their twenties were talking to each other.
"Hmm, how about this one?"
"Hey, isn't that too revealing?"
"Eleanor, stop being too innocent. You'll never get a boyfriend in that state."
Eleanor who heard this, lowered her head out of embarrassment. She then retorted, "Mmm, what about you? What do you think will Athan think about your indecent-"
"This is called bikinis, Ellie."
Before Eleanor could even add something, Athan's girlfriend continued, "Besides, you should worry about yourself more. I mean, it's important for you to show some of your bare body to your boyfriend." She grinned teasingly.
At that moment, Eleanor suddenly stopped herself from talking after having a quick flash back about the time she and Lucius did 'something'.
Her face became bright red at the process, as she promptly looked away to the other direction after noticing the lads gaze.
"Dianne, you shouldn't say something like that. Also, Lucius isn't my boyfriend... yet."
"Yet?"
Hearing this, it took Dianne a few minutes before she could process what Eleanor said. And when she did, placing her hands to cover her mouth, she tried her hardest not to laugh.
"Dianne..."
Eleanor pouted her lips turned her head cutely to the side.
Seeing her action, Dianne suddenly remembered something and decided to ask, "Ellie... You're not a virgin anymore, aren't you?"
"..."
"..."
The whole room became silent because of this.
"...Why do you ask?"
Breaking the silence, Eleanor slowly turned her head to face her and looked at her in the eyes. She unconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva when she saw Dianne hiding her grin by covering her mouth with both of her hands.
Looking at her body up and down, Dianne was still making a teasing grin when she replied, "Well, back when we're still living at the dormitory, I saw you one night staggering alone in the hallway a couple of weeks ago."
"..."
Due to the fact that Eleanor didn't gave her a reply after what she said, Dianne managed to confirm her suspicion.
Patting her shoulders, Dianne heaved out a exasperated sigh before smiling gently. "Take care of that idiot for me, Ellie." She said, "Although that idiot may be rough at times, he's a good person if you ignored some of his messed-up personality."
Upon hearing this, Eleanor tilted her head innocently as she stared at the girl in confusion. She was about to ask her what she meant when Dianne suddenly pulled out dozens of swimsuit out of her luggage and placed them all in bed.
Turning her head towards Eleanor, she closed her eyes as her smile widened. Although she hasn't said a thing, Eleanor felt cold chills from her back. She didn't know why, but all of the sudden, her body unconsciously moved by itself.
She tried to ran away but Dianne caught arms, prompting her to stop.
"You should try them yourself."
***
It has been an hour since after we reached out destination.
Right now, after we finished putting on our swimsuit, Athan and I were currently waiting for the two to come out.
"Holy shit, Lucius! Why do you look frail on the outside, yet muscular on the inside?" Asked Athan, pointing his finger towards my bare body.
I took a brief glance at him before looking down to my bare chest. I then replied, "Genetics... I guess?"
What I said is indeed the truth.
The first time I saw Lucius father, I was shocked to see that he was the same as Athan.
What I meant to say is that his body was almost literally the same as him.
Even if he had a toned-looking muscle, he was weak.
Similar to Lucius, who's body looked toned and muscular, without a doubt, I could probably flick them away with just two of my fingers if I were still using my real body.
*Tsk!*
After thinking about this, I suddenly heard a clicking sound inside my head.... I just hit the spot, didn't I, Lucius?
"Uh hu, There's literally no way that I'll believe that?"
"...Are you calling me a liar?"
Breaking me from thoughts, when I heard him say that, I turned my head towards his direction and gave him a glare. If gazes could kill he would have been dead the moment my eyes caught him.
"W-wait! That's not what I meant!"
After I saw him panicking, I realized what I just did and promptly took a deep breath to calm my nerves down.
𝘐𝘵 𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘴 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘢𝘭𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳... 𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘬 𝘎𝘰𝘥 𝘐 𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘢𝘨𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘮 𝘥𝘰𝘸𝘯.
One of the things that Lucius hate is being called a liar.
Like some, he could be violent at times. Actually, there's one time when I was scrolling through the dark web, although I'm not sure what the story was about, I found some photos and videos about him stabbing some dudes or kids. Not only that, those photos and videos was from a couple of years ago when he was still 10 years old!!
If someone were to calm him liar what's the worse that could have happened?
...I'm afraid to find out.
I sighed.
Turning my head back to his direction, I spoke, "Athan, they must've went on ahead and left us. Let just-"
*Ring! Ring!*
Just when I was about to finish my last sentence, my phone suddenly rang.
Taking my phone out of pocket my turtle-neck jacket, I placed it to my ear and spoke, "...Hey. What's with the call?"
It was then...
[It's almost done.]
"...."
***
Thirty minutes zipped by.
After Eleanor and Dianne left the hotel to go to the beach, they immediately encountered Athan and Lucius on their way.
"You guys are already here too, huh." Dianne smiled as she pulled Eleanor to her side. She looked at Lucius and asked, "So Lucius, what do you think of Eleanor?"
Dianne lightly pushed Eleanor forward as she waited for Lucius to reply.
Surprisingly, Lucius doesn't seem to be paying attention to them at all, only lost deeply in his thoughts, pondering about something.
"... Lucius."
Athan decided to call out for him after seeing his torpor.
The moment he realized what's going on, Lucius turned his attention to them and apologized.
"Sorry, I'm just thinking... about something..."
When his eyes landed on Eleanor, his eyes slowly travelled to her posterior. With her fairly large bossom; it became quite hard for Dianne to choose a proper swimsuit that wouldn't let her melons shout hello to people.
And so, she was currently wearing a sort of two-piece pink bikini, with the frills that had been cover half of her torso- revealing her smooth and slightly toned shoulders. Not to mention, her skin was very flawless, not even a hint of scar or marks anywhere. Accompanied by her slender and alluring body, her curves and finely shaped bottom further increased her... To say the least, it was more erotic than they meant to be.
After seeing her body, Athan suddenly frozed up before dropping his phone to the ground.
"Oh, that's a nice reaction~"
Athan patted Lucius shoulder and covered his mouth, trying his best to suppress himself not to laugh.
When Eleanor heard his comment, she promptly placed her arms to her bossom, that though to cover them, and lowered her head with a flustered face.
"..."
"Ey, still shocked from what you're seeing, aren't you?"
Athan nudged his shoulder lightly as he began to teased him.
But unfortunately for him, Lucius didn't budged. He only removed his eyes from her when Dianne went to his side and smacked him.
"You idiot. She'll melt if you keep on staring at her like that, dumbass."
"...Sorry."
And after that, the four of them spent and enjoyed the whole day together at the beach without any problem.
...
....
.....
Somewhere at an unknown location.
"Is it almost done?"
Danica spoke as she turned her head to look at one of the people wearing a white coat.
"Yes." The man replied, "After some rough examination, we managed to confirm that it would be around next month before the machine could be completed."
When Danica heard his reply, she sighed.
After a few moments, she said to him, "That's good to know, then... I shall be taking my leave."
"Wait!"
Before Danica could turn her back to him, the man lightly grabbed her shoulder and asked, "Are you sure that you don't want to turn this into public? I mean, this is one of the greatest scientific discovery!"
He said those to her patiently for her reply.
Heaving out a deep, but short sigh, Danica took a glance at him and replied, "No. This is one of the most crucial information can't be turn to the public. If this information were to be leaked outside, it could cause a massive uproar to the public- Those troublesome people would force us into a dire situation."
Upon hearing her reply, the man nodded and said "As you wish" before leaving and going back to his position.
*Step step step*
After she got outside, Danica looked at the sunset one last time before mumbling.
"It's getting near..."
