C10 Chapter 10

Ivy moved up close to him and propped herself up with her elbow. She touched his lashes. Aaron's lashes were thick. Ivy held his face with her small hands.

"I love you, Aaron. I love you in the same way that girl loved that boy." Claiming that Ivy kissed him on the lips. She gave him a smile and laid down on his chest once again.

[Present]

I stared up at the ceiling.

That was my first kiss. I gave you my first kiss. However, you have always denied this, claiming that you are my uncle and that I am a kid. However, I am no longer a child. I'm curious about how you will really reject me. I'll make you fall in love with me.

But there's a thing: does he have a girlfriend? No, I don't think so. If he has, it doesn't bother me.

I got out of bed and walked to my balcony. I took a glance at my uncle's balcony. He hadn't slept yet.

Maybe he's reading or working. I looked around.

Should I go?

My balcony was attached to him. Between these two balconies, there was a one-finger space. After crossing the balcony railing, I came to my uncle's balcony. The door to his balcony was locked. I glanced through the window at him. He was typing something on his laptop. He had no shirt on. His physique is too sexy to handle. I bit my lower lip as I saw his physique.

‘Ivy, you are a sex-craving pervert. If a hot guy is near your room, you will lose control.’ My inner self spoke out. I don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight.

Aaron abruptly rose and approached the bed. I had to go, as it's too risky.

If Aaron sees me here, he'll think I'm secretly watching him.

I was planning to move, but I was hit by a flowerpot.

"Ahh!" I whined in agony.

I fixed my gaze on him. Aaron's gaze was diverted to the balcony's door.

Shit! He was about to come, but his phone unexpectedly rang. I immediately climbed the railing and made my way to my room.

Thank you, God! Otherwise, he'll find me today.

Then I heard the door to his room opening. He opened his door. I took a glance. I noticed a hot, wide-chested dude approaching the balcony. He gazed up at the sky.

Oh, Aaron! I want to hold you in my arms. How can a man be so alluring? You can be a model.

Aaron stared at the sky for a moment before looking down.

Is he thinking of something?

But then he turned to face my balcony. I took a step back. Because my room's light was turned off, he couldn't see my shadow.

Aaron stared at my balcony for a long time. Then he instantly smiled. I widened my eyes to glimpse his smile.

Does he know how to put a smile on his face?

Aaron went to his bedroom. I sat down quietly on my bed. I can't let go of you, Aaron. My destiny has given me a second chance. I feared you'd never come back, but you did. I have to give it my all.

[The next morning]

I opened my eyes as I heard the stupid alarm. It just woke me up from my dream with Aaron. I turned off the alarm and tried to sleep once again.

But, suddenly, I opened my eyes and grumbled, "Damn!"

I leapt from my bed and dashed towards the bathroom. After 5 minutes, I changed into seductive shorts and a fitness bra and glanced in the mirror. I looked pretty damn hot.

My uncle would always get up early and go to the gym or for a walk. So, I set the alarm last night. I went to the balcony to check where he was. He was in the garden when I found him. He might come back home. When I came into the garden, I noticed Aaron doing push ups.

He came to a halt and turned back as he heard my approach. When I saw his physique, my jaw literally dropped. I gave him a wide-eyed stare. He was soaked in sweat. I took a deep breath when I saw him.

Aaron said, "Good morning, Ivy." I was too busy checking on him.

‘What exactly is she doing here? I knew she was a night owl, but today? Is she a gym member?’ Aaron thought.

"Good morning, Ivy," I said once more.

"Good morning," I mumbled as I moved my gaze toward Aaron.

"What are you doing here? Are you planning on going to the gym?" Aaron asked.

I have a gym at my house. I have everything. But I've rarely touched an item of fitness equipment. And you're asking if I'm going to the gym.

I answered with a smile, "No, not today. I am a bit late."

He said, "So, are you here to walk?"

"I do some workouts here every day," I said, nodding. I began to perform crossover lunges.

Crap! I've done nothing like this before; I just saw it and, expectantly, fell to the ground.

Shit! I will not admit to him. I don't know what to do. First, I must balance myself. Aaron abruptly pulled off his sleeveless t-shirt. Wow, I was so enamored with his abs and chest.

He is now even hotter than before.

Aaron was drinking a bottle of water. He put water on his hair and face after drinking. The water rolled down his chest and into his navel.

Oh my goodness! I bit my lower lip. I'd want to lick the water, Aaron. Please don't kill me with your seductiveness, Aaron. I'm already longing for you. I jerked my body to the back and turned around. I could feel my ears and cheeks getting hotter.

"Are you all right?" Aaron abruptly spoke up.

"Yes, I'm OK," I answered after clearing my throat. Then I started on the fire hydrant exercise. Aaron took a seat next to me.
