Chapter 228

I finished my explanation with a delighted grin in my eyes, happy that I had finally gotten this off my chest. I had been thinking of how our meetings were inexplicably linked at some point and I can't say that it hasn't really bothered me for some reason.

"If Clay and Eras are actually looking for a relationship with you, exactly who would you choose?" Scott asks practically flaring red. I wonder why he's asking this question but still I shrug because I had suggested the game in the first place.

"I don't really think I'm ready for a relationship at this point. I'm not ready to be in a relationship with anybody be it Clay, or Eras. I think it is fine how we are simply friends like this".

Both Oakley and Scott simply shrug their shoulders like I had given them a fair answer.

"okay, now both of you a game of rock-paper-scissors once more?" I ask and Oakley delightedly nods at this.

Scott looks unsure of it and that left me even the more insistent on it.

"I did it, it would be unfair if both of you didn't do it, and one of you would still get to talk anyways. What is the matter if you get to talk before she does?".

Scott gives me a sly smile, a sly smile which suggests that he knows my tricks. He knows what I am planning and I smile back at him because I am pretty sure Oakley will not lose.

"Okay, let's have one more go at this. Are you ready?" Scott asks her and Oakley practically nods enthusiastically.

"Alright, rock-paper-scissors again".

The short gasp that leaves Oakley's mouth makes me think that she is the one that had won, but when I look at Scott's face, when I look at his delicately handsome face, I see that he's wearing a look of triumph in there. He's wearing a look of triumph that makes Oakley pale in comparison to the excitement that is on his face.

I look to oakley and I see she's distraught at this point.

"Your-turn" Scott says to her and she practically wiped a tear away dramatically, looking at me and giving me something of an accusatory smile.

I laugh at this and I simply shrug my shoulders. 

"Exactly how was I supposed to know that Scott would end up defeating you again this time?".

"All right. What do you want me to tell you about?" She says. I can't really decide on it because I have been thinking about the same thing just a few minutes ago. What would I ask Oakley about, her relationship with this guy is something tricky, she is still indefinitely reeling from the effects of her relationship with him and me asking about het relationship would inevitably open some new sore.

"Exactly how much do you like it her?" I ask her and she shoots me something of a surprised look.

I look to Scott and he nods his head.

"Yes, exactly how much do you like it living with us?"
