“Don’t tell me you’re going to swim wearing that.”

Huh?

You looked down at your body to see that you were wearing a normal-looking bikini. You were confused. You turned around to see that you were in what looked like a secluded beach. 

“Well what do you want me to wear? Jeans and sweatshirt?” you gave a smartass reply.

You moved your head to see that person, and you felt yourself rooted right on the spot.

'OH. MY. FREAKING. .'

You couldn’t believe what you were seeing now. You couldn’t stop yourself from drooling at such pleasurable sight. You unconsciously raised your hand to wipe the corners of your mouth.

Damn it! This is official! There could never be a more beautiful sight than a shirtless Zhang Yi Xing, with only swim trunks on.

You couldn’t help but eye him thoroughly; your eyes wandering to his steel for an and his *clears throat*.

'Oh .'

Your eyes travelled to his well-toned abs, and bit your lip when you eyed his chest.

If you were to be asked right now as to what your favourite body part of Lay was… it would definitely be his chest. His chest was so manly, and you were having naughty thoughts about what you wanted to do with it and his y collar bone.

Oh if Luhan could only hear your thoughts… he would’ve pulled your eyes from their sockets with no second thoughts.

You trailed your eyes to his biceps and triceps. Though they were not too muscular, they were toned just enough to fit your liking. They were perfect for you.

You looked at his face and felt your heart beat a mile a minute.

He was looking so damn delectable showing off his dimple, and was currently looking like a fallen angel you wanted to get down and dirty with.

Oh heavens. You’ve never been this hot for him.

You were about to go over and get a taste of some of his loving, when another voice called your attention.

“Well, my hands are too lazy. I think I’m going to need a little help.”

You saw a fully clothed Mei Hua trying to look y.

Lay went over to her and gave her y smirk.

“I’m feeling lazy too, sweetheart. What are we going to do about it?”

He then his lips.

Mei Hua gave him a y pout. “Lay…” she whined.

Lay pulled Mei Hua’s body to his, and put his hand just above Mei Hua’s . He lifted her shirt a little, and sensually rubbed her exposed skin.

“How about you reward your well-behaved boyfriend with a show, huh?” he leaned in and blew on Mei Hua’s earlobe. She obviously shivered and placed a hand on his chest. She pulled away from him and started taking off her clothes while exchanging heated looks with Lay.

When she was left with only her bra and knickers on, she went back to him and kissed him.

'MEI HUA YOU EFFING !'

The kiss got even more heated, and they were practically making out right in front of you.

You were so damn mad that you walked your murderous self to them, and grabbed Mei Hua on her hair; effectively stopping the two from any more vomit-worthy sight.

“Hey, you bitter Ex! Get your claws off my hair! Ugh! You !”

She tried to remove your hand from her hair, but you were one damn scornful and dangerous woman.

You were unstoppable.

You dragged her on the shoreline and let go of her hair, only to slap her face into oblivion. You were insatiable, and you punched her repetitively on any part of her body that you could reach.

You looked at her and saw dark bruises starting to form, and you couldn’t help but smirk.

“Take that, you home wrecker!”

You were about to attack her again when Lay encircled his arms on your waist, and lifted you off the ground, throwing you into the water.

You woke up with a gasp, feeling literally soaked with water.

You bolted upright and looked at your wet shirt, and saw the end of your hair dripping with excess water.

You looked to your left and let out a yelp.

Standing in front of you was a frightening-looking Luhan, with an empty bucket on his hand. His usual smiling face was gone, and was replaced by a blank and chilly look instead.

“D-did you p-pour water over m-me?”

He ignored you and kept looking at you.

“W-what? Why a-are you looking l-like that?”

“I woke up, ____... I woke up to your noises and thought you were having a nightmare.” He stepped closer to the bed. “Being a good brother, I came to check up on you… Only to find out that I seemed to have gotten it wrong…”

You gulped. Luhan was scaring the hell out of you. You couldn’t even get mad at him for drenching you.

“Your guy better be good at dodging, ____. Better tell him to be faster than my punches or bullets if he values his life…” he whispered slowly and murderously.

He just looked into your eyes, making you want to piss your pants.

“And better lock your door so I can’t strangle you to death the next time you get loud enough to let everyone know about your wet dreams.”

Your jaw has never dropped this low. You felt the blood drain from your face.

Luhan saw your horrified look and slowly left your room; leaving the door open.

----------------------------------------------

“Yiiiiiiiiiin…” You whined and hugged her arm as you were walking towards the Library.

You told her about the WET incident with Luhan, and she ended up bursting out in laughter.

She was laughing so hard that her face was all red, and she had to stop walking.

“You… you’re the best, you know that?” she said in between laughter.

“Yin, it’s not funny. And for the record, it wasn’t even a wet dream. If it was, then it should’ve been Lay and me making out and going at it like bunnies in the sand,” you firmly reasoned out.

“Well you were and god knows what else you did to make your obsessed brother get riled up like that. So it must be something, right?” she teasingly smiled at you and winked.

“Whatever. This is my body so I ought to know better, Yin,” you said as you rolled your eyes.

You resumed walking and she followed your lead.

“Okay, okay. You can lie to me, but you can never lie to yourself, ____. Who knows? You might’ve been secretly to see your ex and his girl performing for you.” She laughed.

You glared at her but decided to keep your mouth shut.

This was hopeless. She was hopeless. You didn’t want to talk about it anymore.

When she realized that you were ignoring her, she forced herself to stop laughing and cleared .

“So are you done with being in denial about wanting Lay back?”

“I told you I really don’t want him back, Yin. If I do, I would’ve done something about it now.”

She raised her eyebrow in disbelief and shook her head.

“Hello! You just practically prevented him from getting any with Mei Hua just days ago. Does any sane ex-girlfriend do that?! Oh, and by the way, I have to congratulate you for keeping your face. No one can act as if nothing happened after being busted in a compromising situation like that.” She pursed her lips and gave you a mock salute.

“Yin. I’m trying to forget it ever happened, okay? So please do the same. I’ve never been there and you’ve never been there. We stayed at home that night and we saw nothing we wouldn’t want to see.” You gave her a serious look.

She sighed. “So how about Lay? Did he call you up again?”

“After that one call, he didn’t try to contact me again.”

You were talking about the call Lay attempted to make the day after the cinema incident. You rejected the call ‘cause seriously, you didn’t have the balls to hear what he wanted to tell you. Besides the fact that you hated his guts for setting the moves on another woman, you were downright ashamed of being caught spying and throwing popcorn at him. He might be assuming the same thing that Yin did, and you just couldn’t let that conversation happen.

It was dark when you went out of the library, since you decided to do a little research besides checking out the book that you and Yin needed for your term paper.

Yin left hours ago to catch up on her date with Xiumin, leaving you alone and focused on working on your school work.

And just your luck, it was raining and you forgot to bring your umbrella.

You could run from here to your college where Luhan was waiting for you, but it was a 15-minute walk. And even if it was alright for you to get soaked, you were sure that the librarians wouldn’t appreciate you getting their book drenched.

You waited in front of the library for a few minutes, before your attention drifted to the person exiting the said building.

The first thing you saw was his shirt, which looked very familiar.

Your eyes searched for his face, and was met with the surprised expression of Lay.

'Oh dear. Why is the world seem to be conspiring against me?'

You didn’t know what to do. You didn’t want to talk to him, but you didn’t want him to ignore you.

'Do I just greet him like nothing happened, or run away from him? Take that back. You can’t run away. There’s nowhere else to go unless I want to suffer the librarian’s wrath, and pay for the fine.'

Lay looked away from you and into the pouring rain.

He originally wanted to talk to you. He wanted to sort out the misunderstandings between you. He wanted to confess everything to you now, and plead for you to accept him back. But now that you were here in front of him, he didn’t even know what to do, how to act around you and what to say to you. He felt his hands getting clammy.

He took a few steps and opened his bag to check if he had an umbrella. Fortunately, he was wise enough to bring one. He took it out. As he was about to open it, he looked at you and saw that you didn’t seem to be getting ready to leave. You looked as if you were waiting for the rain to stop.

'She must have forgotten to bring her umbrella again.'

You heard footsteps heading towards your direction, and turned to see Lay in front of you.

He gave you an uncertain smile and you couldn’t help but smile back.

You missed being this close to him, you missed seeing him smile at you. You felt your heart getting warm, especially when you got to see his adorable dimple.

“Here,” he moved to hand you his umbrella. “Go ahead. Take it. It’s getting late.”

“What about you?”

“Don’t worry about me. Worry about yourself. It’s dark already and it’s even raining,” he smiled and scratched the back of his ear with his index finger.

“Luhan is back at my college building, waiting for me. So I can wait up a little while until it stops.”

“What if it won’t stop anytime soon? C’mon. Take it.” He pushed his umbrella into your hand then.

 You have no choice but to take it when you saw his eyes begging for you to do it.

“Only because you insist,” you smiled at him, “Thank you, Lay. Are you really sure about this?” you asked him one last time, and he only nodded at you.

You opened the umbrella and stepped out into the rain.

After a few steps, you turned to look at him again and had an inner debate.

Lay was staring at his phone, checking the time, when he heard your voice.
