Chapter 176 - Sweet scent

"Let go." She said, still not looking at his eyes. "I am not a bastard." He whispered in her ears, in a threatening tone, ignoring all her struggles.

He finally let go of her, "Leave" he said turning his back away towards her. 

"Andrew…" she was worried about seeing him behaving strangely.

"I SAID LEAVE!!" Andrew yelled at her, before she could ask something.

Jennie was surprised by his sudden behavior, she started trembling in fear after his yelling at her.

"I will leave you alone then." She said taking her things and leaving. She didn't know what made him lose his tantrum like that. 

She went out of the building, it was raining heavily. But she was so lost in thought, that she didn't even notice when walking out. 

Rain pours out on her, hiding her tears. Even heaven was helping her today. She was a failure. No matter what she can't get him, he will never bloom feelings for her. 

She already knew that but after the makeover, she wanted to give it a try but she failed miserably.

After Jennie left, Andrew finally cooled down, he sat down on the chair close to him, and closed her eyes, placing his arms above his eyes.

Suddenly, he heard a loud bang, he immediately sat straight and looked outside, it was lighting and raining heavily. 

He suddenly remembered Jennie, she is scared of the sound of thunderstorms. 

He can't think of anything, before running out without thinking of himself. He searched for Jennie even though it was showering hard. 

He finally found squatting at the front of a closed store, all drenched in rain. She was looking up, hoping the rain would stop. He could see her trembling in fear because of the thunderstorm.

He sighed before running towards her. Jennie saw him, she was happy for a second thinking he cared for her but remembering what he said before, the sweet smile on her lips from before vanished. 

"What are you doing here?" Jennie asked him, trying to be cold and aloof. If she wants to stay friends with him, she should kill her feelings but everytime she sees her, her heart is stabbed into a thousand pieces. 

He didn't say anything, but pulled her into his arm instead. He didn't know why he did that but he felt he wanted to. He snuggled his head in her crook of the neck. 

Jennie stood still in her place, she didn't know what was going on with him suddenly.

"Sorry." He muttered under his breath, as he inhaled the sweet scent of her. The vanilla scent on her body was making her addicted to her. He felt his body getting attracted to her. He wanted to taste her, bite her, eat her.

Was he weird to feel like this to his friend? He muttered to himself in his mind,'She is your friend you can't.' the line repeated again and again. 

Yes, he can't like his bro, she already liked someone how can he? It was not good. She thought of him as a friend, how will she think of him, if he likes her more than a friend. He finally let go of her, no he should control himself. 

Jennie blinked her eyes, seeing his weird expressions on his face, he was not making any eye contact with her, not even looking at her.

'Was he shy?' Jennie thought but it was weird, he didn't love her then why would he be shy. 

It was not like they kissed or something, they just hugged. It's nothing wrong to hug your friend, but she can't deny that her heart fluttered when he pulled her into his arms. For a second she even thought he liked her but she remembered his words from before. 

For him she was just a bro, who cared about her but not loved her like a woman. She bit her lips and looked at him.

"I will leave since the storm stopped." She said taking her things and running away in the rain.

Andrew tried to stop her from leaving already but she ran away before that. He was contemplating, whether to follow her or let her go like that. 

He can't let her go like that, he felt as if he was letting go of something precious, he can't. He took a breath and ran and followed her. 

Jennie's house was not that far from there, she went to her apartment and closed the door. Keeping her things, she went to the bathroom to dry her hair and change her clothes. 

She usually wears shorts and her crop top if she is at home, she puts on her shorts and top before drying her hair. She was about to start drying her hair when she looked at herself in the mirror and remembered the hug from before, she can't stop blushing and smiling like a fool.

What was she thinking again, he didn't like her and here she was happy because of a hug. 

She shook his thoughts away, and was about to start drying her hair when she heard her door bell ringing. 

She was not sure who would come to her house so late. Still she went and opened the door and was amazed when she saw him standing in the doorway, all drenched in rain.

"Why did you come?" Jennie questioned looking at him. 

"I was just worried about you...Achoo!!" He said sneezing.

"Come in." Jennie said seeing him sneezing. She felt happy that he cared about her no matter who. A tiny smile appeared on her lips but it disappeared before he could notice. She asked him to send before she went inside to get him a towel.

Andrew nodded, sneezing again. He sat down on the couch, he opened his cuff and pulled up his sleeves, and some button of his c.h.e.s.t, showing his c.h.e.s.t.

Jennie came back and showed him, suddenly the atmosphere was getting hot around them.
