The Devil’s love

"They are too big." Ning complained.

Placing his fork and knife down, Yichan gestured to her to come over. "Give it to me, let me slice it for you." ​​

Ning nodded her head and started walking towards him.

Taking the strawberries from her hand, Yichan started slicing them into easily eatable size before placing it on her plate.

Ning smiled and started eating the sliced strawberries. Yichan was becoming more and more cute day by day and was stirring up multiple emotions inside her. His protective and caring attitude was warming up her heart. Except for her grandpa, no one in her family genuinely cared about her but now when Yichan was, Ning felt very touched and happy.

Staying under the same roof for an entire month, Ning understood that Yichan was just a pretentious cold man but was actually a sweetheart. He would tuck her inside the blanket whenever she kicked it off, he would occasionally clean her dressing table and help her fold her clothes. She also realised that he was a hard core fan of pancakes and could eat them all day long without complaining but didn't know how to make one. Forget about making pancakes, he could hardly even boil water. She wondered why he was there and often felt a strong urge to ask him about his personal life but restrained herself because she was scared that he would detest her. But despite his pretentious cold personality, Yichan was slowly crawling his way into her heart and Ning was aware of it.

Looking at Ning who was continuously shoving strawberries into her mouth like a small baby, Yichan chuckled, "Eat slowly otherwise you will choke. It's not like anyone will take them away."

With lots and lots of strawberries pieces inside her mouth, Ning mumbled, "It's tasty and super sweet."

Wiping the corner of her lips with his thumb, Yichan licked it and frowned, "Too sweet for me."

*COUGH* *COUGH* *COUGH*

Ning widened her eyes in shock and started coughing vigorously. 'Did he just lick his thumb?' Ning thought. She almost choked when he wiped her lips with his thumb and she completely lost it when he casually licked it like it was his favoured candy.

Yichan fronwed and grumbled, "I told you to eat slowly." before rubbing her back.

Ning was wearing a sleeveless low back top and she could feel the heat his palm was emitting. The friction and the touch of their skin made her feel giddy and wobbly.

Grabbing her chin, Yichan lifted it up, "Look up."

Squatting down, Yichan kept on rubbing her back seriously but that seriousness lasted only for a few seconds. The moment he realised how close his face was to her chest, his throat felt dry and his palms started turning sweaty. He stopped rubbing her back and started caressing her bare back skin. Ning's skin was super soft and he didn't want to pull his hand away.

Ning felt goosebumps all over her body when the vigorous rubbing action turned into a gentle caressing one and when her gaze met his scorching one, Ning gulped in nervousness. He had never looked at her the way he was looking at her the very moment.

Looking down, Yichan closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths before getting up, "Y-you should be careful next time."

Getting up, Ning cleared her throat, "Okay."

Pausing for quite some time, Yichan asked, "We are still going for our evening walk right?"

" Ya definitely, I'll go change." Rushing towards the bedroom, Ning closed the door with a loud bang.

Running his fingers through his hair, Yichan knocked himself and murmured, "Stupud Yichan you scared her."

…..

Near the shore.

Walking alongside with almost an one arm distance between them, Yichan and Ning were contemplating within themselves whether to start a conversation or not.

"Ning" "Yichan" Both of them said unanimously.

Yichan awkwardly scratched his forehead and tried to make things normal between them, "That- I mean what happened that time was-"

"Weird?" Ning completed his sentence before awkwardly tucking her hair behind her ear.

"It just happened, it was just a small accident. It's nothing to be ashamed of right? I mean I am a straight guy and you are a beautiful attractive woman and you also have very soft skin so-." Yichan widened his eyes in shock. 'Soft skin? Seriously Yichan? Out of so many things, you had to say that?' He inwardly cursed himself.
