"You're done right?" Lucas asked Jen who was still following him.

"I'm pretty much done" Jen said still feeling embarra.s.sed by how he suddenly ordered Lingerie for her in every colour. The girls at the shop must have totally misunderstood them.

"Pretty much?" Lucas asked

"Don't worry, i'll come with Nancy and Leanna later next week. Let's go for lunch" Jen said after catching up with him and holding on to his arm. The two of them made a lovely picture as they left the mall together.

The two of them went out on their lunch date, and since Jen wanted to eat pizza, they had to go to a place that served nice pizza.

Lucas watched Jen with amus.e.m.e.nt as she ordered her pizza and all the extra toppings she wanted. They were going to share the large pizza since Lucas would not eat much of it because he had abs to maintain. So Jen had decided to go all out since she will be eating more of it.

The two of them went to a window seat and sat down as they waited for their order. Lucas looked around them and most of the customers there were young people, as opposed to the customers they would normally see in the pricey restaurants he was used to.

"Isn't this refres.h.i.+ng? Even my mood has improved" Jen said and proceeded to smile brightly at Lucas who ended up laughing.

"It's not stuffy like the places you go to" Jen continued criticising.

"Did you hate them so much?" Lucas asked.

"I didn't, but being in a more relaxed setting is better right?" Jen said.

"You're right, if you hated it it would be strange, since your restaurants are the same" Lucas said trying to antagonise her and she lightly hit his arm when she heard that.

The two of them had their lunch as they continued with their banter and left after talking for a while.They then went to the supermarket to shop for groceries and other things they will need and then went back home.

Lucas automatically carried the heaviest things leaving a few light things for Jen to carry. She could even see his muscles flex through his s.h.i.+rt.

"I can carry more, you don't have to carry so much" Jen said as she was holding the bag with her lingerie and another with just vegetables.

"I'm alright, it's not that heavy" Lucas said as he let her go in the elevator before him.

"Suit yourself" Jen said with a laugh as she got on the elevator.

Lucas followed behind her before the elevator closed. Soon enough, the two of them were already in the house and sorting out the things they bought in the fridge. As they were packing the things, Jen couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Lucas, why do you think we didn't see Fiona at the hotel before?" Jen asked curiously as she was was.h.i.+ng the fruits they had bought.

"The plan for the penthouses was the privacy that they provide. So unless you go to more public areas like the spa, restaurant, public pool or other facilities, no one will see you." Lucas explained.

"Oh, how convenient!" Jen said as she teased Lucas.

"Mmh, My relations.h.i.+p with Fiona was very short, it was about the time we were finis.h.i.+ng high school, she asked me out on graduation and I didn't know how to say no infront of so many people so I just agreed. Before much could happen she went to study abroad so we broke up after about two months of the relations.h.i.+p." Lucas explained.

In his eyes, it was a relations.h.i.+p that did not have time to progress at all. At least he knew that he did not have time to develop feelings for her at that time.

"Oh, young love" Jen said with slight exaggeration but Lucas was abnormally quiet.

"Did else happen that I should know of?" Jen asked when she noticed his silence.

"Uhm, we had gotten together for a couple of weeks when I was in first year. She had returned for holidays and I can only say that I was bored so it was like we were keeping each other occupied I guess" Lucas continued.

"Oh, is this the round about way of saying that your relations.h.i.+p was physical?" Jen asked as she put the fruits on the side to let them drain and turned to look at Lucas who was surprisingly fl.u.s.tered.

He felt guilty for some reason and partially felt like he was being scolded, even though he knew that was not what was happening.

"I was young and-" Lucas started before Jen interrupted.

"Hey, you're still young. I'm not mad at you, because I was also in a relations.h.i.+p. I would be immature if I got upset since this happened years ago, before we even met. Besides, it's not like I wasn't in a relations.h.i.+p before. Wouldn't I be a hypocrite if I gave you a hard time for being in one previously?" Jen said as she held his face in her hands and pinched his cheeks making him frown.

"Besides, it's okay now as long as this belongs to me" Jen said as she placed her hand on his chest and looked up at him. "And if the only one your going to be physical with, is me" Jen said as an alluring smile appeared on her face.

Lucas felt his heart skip a beat before he was held in a trance. He wondered when she had gotten so possessive and open with him. He couldn't compare her now to when their relations.h.i.+p had just started. It was like she was a flower that bloomed more and more every day.

He would have never thought that what was hiding behind the slightly aloof personality she had before was a charming, understanding, playful woman. He can only say that he had hit jackpot. And the best decision he had ever made in his life was pursuing her in the first place.

Lucas wrapped her in his arms and hugged her suddenly. Jen was slightly surprised but she too placed her hands around his neck to hug him back.

"Jen" Lucas said his voice slightly m.u.f.fled, but she could hear him clearly since he was talking right next her ear.

"Hmm?" she responded in question.

"I think i'm falling in love with you" Lucas said.

"Me too" Jen replied reflexively before she froze for a moment when she realised what she had said to him.

However, now that he had caught her off guard, why would he give her the time to think?

Lucas immediately crushed his lips against hers and kissed her pa.s.sionately.
