246 Stay 100 metres away from ME!

Smiling, she decided to tease him a little by stretching her arms overhead, causing the back to arch. Stumbling, Wei got up halfway and pulled her on the bed instantly.

"I was feeling cold all by myself here and your body looks to be at just the right amount of temperature to warm me up," he smiled and nibbled her ear.

Wrapping his arms around her, he breathed her in before lowering his mouth one more time!

5 AM, Next morning

The tune from Disaster(Dave ft J Hus) rang loudly in room 3018, causing two sets of groans to emanate from the bed. Entangled limbs tried to extract themselves from each other.

Wei gained consciousness first, maybe on the account of an unfamiliar tune creating havoc on his pounding head. Trying to trace the source of the noise, he suddenly saw a naked leg slither up and brush his, uh, naked thigh? What? Where was he? Why was he naked? What was that noise?

His mind started playing 20-20 questions with him.

"Wait a minute. Is that Jia Li's … no it can't be," even before he could form the question fully in his head, his heart replied.

His body would have known instinctively had it been her lying next to him. Unwilling to face whosoever was under the pillow, he first reached for the offensive phone which was ringing non-stop.

"Mom" was on the display of the screen.

Worried about someone's mom trying to reach the person, he overcame his reluctance and shook the creamy shoulder which peeked out from under the blanket.

"Hey, uh… your mom is calling," he said awkwardly.

"What the hell did I do last night?" his mind was busy trying to remember, as a hand snaked out and took the phone from him.

A muffled voice answered the call from under the blanket. Wei suddenly scrambled to find at least his underpants if not more before the person came out of the covers.

He couldn't make out most of the conversation but it seemed monosyllabic at this end. Finally the call was disconnected and it was the time for reckoning.

Samantha was experiencing a similar feeling as Wei but she knew how to bluff it out. Gathering the covers around her chest, she sat up and looked at the man.

If Wei's face had been flooded with embarrassment earlier, now it turned white with fear and guilt.

"Oh God! Oh God!" he couldn't get another word out of his mouth.

"Hey Mister, are you having a heart attack or something?" Sam forgot all about modesty and lunged towards him.

"Get away… stay 100 metres away from me," he immediately backed off as soon as he saw her coming towards him.

Samantha gulped down the acute embarrassment at his behaviour. So what if she wasn't good enough to look at, he didn't have to give out such an extreme reaction. He was behaving as if she had stolen his virginity or something.

Finding his coat draped over the sofa, he quickly snatched it and gave it to her to wear.

"I don't know how… but I will take full responsibility. We will probably have to call the lawyers, the families. Are you, are you all right? I mean was I… did I?" Wei looked at the girl helplessly.

Sam thought that there was something wrong with the picture right now. He was saying the wrong things, wasn't he?

"I am absolutely alright. In fact, I enjoyed myself thoroughly last night. So thank you for that," she tried to brazen it out.

Looking at his ashen face losing every single gram of blood from it, Sam struggled to understand his reaction.

"Uh, may I ask why are you reacting so strongly? I can assure you that I contributed equally to the err, activities last night. It was completely consensual. So can you please come off the guilt trip that you are currently on!" she couldn't stop her eyes from rolling.

"You mean to say that I am over reacting. What is wrong with you kids these days?" he said, covering his face with his hands.

Sam walked up to him and took his hands in her own. She patted him gently, trying to reassure him.

Calming down slightly, he asked, "how old are you? Please don't say high school."

Samantha looked at him in astonishment.

"Wait a minute. He thinks that I am underage. No wonder he is freaking out," she thought, as a hysterical laugh bubbled up in her throat.

She got up and walked away, looking for her belongings which were now strewn all over the room. Finding her wallet, she pulled out her driving license and came back to sit next to him.

"I am a bona fide adult. So, stop hyperventilating," she handed over her card to him for inspection.
