Day Thirteen…
~~*****~~
Abigail could only grab Nathan's shoulders while he was holding her waist. They didn't even have the chance to change their clothes as Stephen already pushed them to the pool.
Abigail opened her eyes and turned in Stephen's direction. She glared at him because of that sudden push.
Stephen just gave her an apologetic smile before waving his hand. "I forgot. I have to go and see Kathleen. She needs a driver so I have to fetch her. Nate, please take care of Abigail. I can't divide myself to be their bodyguard. Enjoy swimming!"
After saying that, Stephen left without looking back. Abigail and Nathan just stared at his back with disbelief. He was the one who proposed to them to swim and enjoy the pool but he just left after pushing the two.
Nathan didn't know whether he should feel mad at his best friend or not. He was deceived by him. He thought Abigail and Stephen were going to swim so he ended up lying. He couldn't take his words back so he might as well do it for real.
"I think we should leave this pool. The staff said the guests should wear proper swimwear." Abigail said, looking at her wet clothes. She was wearing a plain white shirt and denim shorts.
She was about to get out of the water when Nathan pulled her back. "Don't worry about this. I will talk to the hotel management. Just enjoy this pool with your clothes on."
Nathan didn't want Abigail to wear another sexy bikini in a public place where many guys could see them. The pool area was open to all hotel guests so there might be other people who would come to the pool today.
Since Nathan wanted her to stay, Abigail didn't object. She just remained in the pool together with him. There was an awkward silence between them.
Nathan moved to the pool side and called a hotel staff stationed in that pool area. Nathan talked to the staff and gave him some instructions. Abigail wondered what they were talking about.
Little did she know, Nathan was using his power and influence to rent the pool today, not allowing other guests to come. If Abigail wanted to remove her clothes then he wouldn't stop her.
Abigail just dove, swimming around the pool. The cool water was relaxing for her. Since she was already there then she would seize this moment. Besides, Nathan was there with her and her rival was not around.
This was her perfect time to be with Nathan and started to build rapport with him. As she swam under the water, Abigail had this crazy idea of pulling Nathan's leg. She wanted to play with him in that pool.
Nathan had just finished talking to the hotel staff when he felt a hand pulling his leg under the water. Before he knew it, Abigail wrapped her hands around his waist, dragging him to the water.
Nathan fell back and Abigail continued to pull him down to the bottom as if she was trying to drown him. However, Nathan also did a tricky move. He grabbed Abigail's hands and tried to turn around. The two were like wrestling under the water.
When Abigail was losing her breath, she decided to go up and gasp some air. She pushed Nathan away from her and she swam up.
'Hmm. So this woman likes this kind of childish game.' Nathan thought to himself, his lips curling up in a cheeky smile.
Having a naughty thought in mind as he wanted to get even at her, Nathan swam in her direction. This time he was the one who caught her, dragging her down the water.
Abigail tried to struggle against him but Nathan was holding her waist tightly. He was typically hugging her from behind. He even locked Abigail's legs with his, immobilizing her.
The hotel staff who were still in the pool area couldn't help but watch the two. They didn't know if the two were making out in the water.
"No wonder, he wanted us to close this pool from the other guests. I think the two are still in the honeymoon stage." One staff member blurted out to his colleagues.
"I'm jealous. He is so handsome." A female employee also shared her opinion.
"Shall we leave too? We don't want to interrupt them, right?" Another staff member spoke up.
"Argh. I want to watch them but I feel like they will just feed us dog food… especially to a single person like me…"
The other staff let out a soft chuckle when they heard that. "Yes. I think we should leave to give them some privacy. This man is our VIP guest. I don't want to offend him."
The hotel staff already left the pool area while Abigail and Nathan were still wrestling under the water. Nathan was not going easy on her. Was he trying to drown her?
When Nathan sensed that Abigail was losing some oxygen, he finally let go of her. Abigail immediately rose from the water to catch some air. "Cough! Cough!" She glared at Nathan whom she heard laughing on the other side.
She turned around to face him. She was about to scold him but stopped when she saw how captivating Nathan was as he laughed. His husky laugh echoed in the pool.
Abigail blinked her eyes. She couldn't believe that she was seeing this wonderful sight. This was the first time she heard Nathan laugh genuinely. It was so refreshing in her ears.
'Damn! This devil is so handsome when he smiles… and laughs.' A blush subconsciously painted Abigail's cheeks. She couldn't take her eyes off him. She had to slap her face to get a hold of herself.
After a while, she decided to take revenge on him. She swam in his direction and chased after him. She wanted to punch him and ripped the smile off his face.
Figuring out her plan, Nathan tried to stay away from her. He swam to prevent her from getting closer to him. But Abigail was so persistent to catch him. She sped up and was able to catch up with him.
She immediately extended her hand to reach him but ended up touching something. Nathan stopped as soon as he felt something on his front.
'What does she think she is holding right now?' Nathan thought to himself, gulping hard. His eyes widened in surprise.
Meanwhile, Abigail hadn't realized yet that she grabbed something she was not supposed to touch. She just wondered why Nathan stopped moving away so she came out of the water to check on Nathan.
"Abigail, that's not my leg you are holding," Nathan uttered with a deep frown on his forehead.
"Huh?" Abigail didn't know what he meant. She followed his line of sight and saw that her hand was pressed on Nathan's private part.
Abigail's jaw dropped and she immediately took away her hand. Her face reddened like a tomato. "I-I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hold your little brother!"
Nathan's frown deepened further when he heard the word "Little."
"Little? Are you sure mine… is little?" Nathan lifted his eyebrow as he asked her. His eyes were looking at her sharply. He stepped forward to get closer to her.
Abigail looked at him blankly, unable to process his words. "You've already touched and served it a few days ago. Do you still consider it as my little brother? As in Little?"
,m Abigail's cheeks reddened further as she finally realized what Nathan was referring to. She recalled the moment she used her hands to serve the devil and helped him to relieve himself. That incident happened when Ethan drugged his own father with an aphrodisiac.
"Why, Abi? Do you miss touching it?" Nathan asked her again with an evil smirk on his face.
"Crazy! Of course not! You… Pervert!" Abigail raised her hand to hit Nathan's chest. He already closed their distance.
But before her fists landed on his sturdy chest, Nathan already grabbed her hands, holding them tightly.
"I'm not a pervert. You were the one who touched mine here."
"It was an accident!" Abigail retorted.
But Nathan just continued smirking at her. He pulled her hands down and asked her, "We are the only people here. Do you want to touch it again and serve me?" Nathan didn't know why he was saying this. He just felt like teasing her today. He found her so charming and pretty as she blushed right now.
Abigail's eyes widened and she felt alarmed when Nathan started bringing her hands closer to his lower body.
'What the hell is he trying to do here? Don't tell me he will make me touch his…' Abigail gulped hard and her heart began to race. Her eyes were looking down.
Abigail tried to pull her hands away from him. Just when she thought he was going to press her hands against his crotch, Nathan's crisp laughter erupted in the pool area.
He was not able to hold his laughter as he was able to see different reactions on Abigail's face. She felt embarrassed, anxious, and at the same time, annoyed.
'Damn it! This guy is such a tease!' Abigail lamented to herself, clenching her teeth.
"Haha! Do you really expect that I will let you touch me again?" Nathan said, provoking her.
Abigail glared at him sharply. "Don't laugh at me like that, otherwise, I will make you eat your words."
"Nathan Sparks… you never know… you might come to me again, begging me to touch you. Wanna bet?"
