They continued to eat and drink some more amidst the awkwardness with their thoughts all over the place. After a while, Rosaline excused herself to go to the washroom.William took this chance to open the windows and breathe the much-needed fresh air to calm himself down. Rosaline was the first and only person he was attracted to in his entire life.He had never thought about romance or even sex. His best friend, Albert, often teased him that he had a physiological problem or maybe he was asexual. William had never paid attention to it.But Rosaline was driving him insane.When she bit her lips, as she subconsciously tended to do quite often, it took all of his restraint to resist the urge to kiss her and maybe bite those lips until they became red and swollen. He could not take his eyes off her when she walked in today.The tattoo on her fair shoulders was tempting.He wanted to trace them with his tongue. Move up to Rosaline’s slender neck and touch and kiss every inch of her ski

Rosaline and William filled Tessa with what they had planned so far.When they had just about finished, food also arrived.Tessa started eating like a hungry ghost and did not talk at all.Rosaline and William had known her for a long time and knew her well. They let her be and started chatting on their own. “How did you guys become friends?” William enquired.Rosaline explained. “She stole my food, and I poured water on her head. I got thirsty later on and stole her water. She got cold and stole the jacket that I had taken off. We somehow became friends after that, and the rest is, as you can see.” William could not help but smile. “This reminds me of how Pete and I became friends.”“How?”“We were in 1st grade at that time. I saw Pete was about to kiss Ria, so I punched him and gave him a split lip. Unexpectedly, Ria kicked me instead. She had a bet with her classmates that she could get Pete to kiss her in front of everyone. She had spent an entire day harassing him, and when she

Rosaline woke up when she heard the relentless doorbell ringing and dragged herself groggily to check who was there through the peephole.“What the hell is wrong with you? Who wakes up this early?” Rosaline shouted as soon as she opened the door to a stunned William.“Good afternoon to you too.”“Huh?”“It’s 1 pm already, sleepyhead,” William said as he knocked on her forehead. “Annoying!” Rosaline murmured as she led him to the living room. William’s mouth twitched as she directly jumped on the sofa and continued to sleep, forgetting him completely.He sat on the ground on the sofa as he examined her. She looked so adorable and so damn kissable in her half-awake state. He held down his impulse, leaned in, and blew on her ear, neck, and face until she couldn't take the itch anymore and woke up with an alarm.“Now you are awake,” William snickered. Rosaline was speechless. She scratched her hair to make sense of what happened while William handed her a glass of warm water.She took

Three days went by in a flash.They had completed creating fake life for “Alexia Rosy Hill” and fortified all the security measures around their respective houses and hotel while installing several secret surveillance cameras everywhere.Albert had flown to Apex City and settled in William’s house without contacting anyone, including William.Chandler was already in Apex City, and he was communicating with William via encrypted messages.Rosaline has gotten a new hairdo with the bottom two inches of her hair dyed Blue. Finally, it was time to lower the bait and wait for the fish to catch it. William dressed neatly and drove his BMW straight to the LTR shopping complex. The car was his 16th birthday gift from his family. He had not used it all that much since he did not stay in the city.After parking his car, he quickly rushed to entrance D, where he had decided to meet Rosaline. It was to be their first official fake date. William stooped in his tracks when he saw Rosaline in a on

Rosaline stared at William’s speechlessness and mumbled quietly.“You asked.”“How do you like it?”“Don’t mean to blow my trumpets, but in a way, it has helped me understand what the designers wanted the buildings to look like, so I try to incorporate that while doing interiors based on my gut feeling. However, most of the time, I’m completely off base.”“That’s nice!”“What about you?”“I like creating things. It started with software and games when I was in school. Then one time, I lost a bet with Evan and was tasked to build a dog house for him.”Rosaline intently listened as he explained.“As in designing it and building it all by myself from scratch. I surprisingly enjoyed it quite a lot. So, I started to note the designs and would draft something in my leisure time.”“When it came to choosing a major, I chose both since I was already interested in both.”Rosaline could not believe how he expressed his geniuses that simply.“You have been designing software since you were in sch
