Between Love and Mission

Chapter 37

Rey turns her lips from Vane's lips to her neck so they can both draw oxygen into her lungs. Vane's body feels warm in his arms and Rey wants to bury her body in that inviting warmth. Vanilla-flavored vane everywhere. Rey took a deep breath to keep the scent in her mind and locked it away.

An alarm in Rey's head, warning her to stop all this. She had just wanted to keep her body away from Vane when she felt Vane's fingers pull her hair out and pull her head back to her lips.

Rey refrained from growling when their lips touched for the umpteenth time. Kissing Vane was the biggest mistake she'd ever made in her entire life, but she couldn't stop.

Without Rey realizing it, her right hand had already lifted the T-shirt worn by Vane and she could touch Vane's abdominal skin even softer than her facial skin. His hand pulled Vane's waist closer to him. Vane did not reject this request. Rey still hugged Vane's body with her right hand and her lips still stuck to Vane's "Oh! So kissable."

Women like Vane shouldn't have lost control, even kissing her back and making provocative noises when she explores it. And with this realization Rey pulled her body away from Vane. With great difficulty he took five steps back away from Vane so that he would not be tempted to start again what he had just ended.

"I'm..." Rey started, but she couldn't finish the sentence because she herself didn't know what she wanted to say. Vane looked at him with anticipation.

"I want to..." And once again Rey could not continue her sentence. Does he have to apologize for his actions? But anyway Vane returned his kiss, it meant that he enjoyed it too right? Damn it!

Vane surprised him by walking towards him with definite steps. Automatic Rey back a few steps. For the first time in his life, he was afraid of a woman's touch. And now Vane looks like a stepmother ready to hit her stepdaughter.

"Stop!"rey said, raising her hand, asking Vane not to approach her again.

But Vane doesn't seem to be offended or concerned by Rey's rejection. Vane walks over to Rey, and manages to panic her. Rey gasps when Vane's hand hits her face and she's afraid that if Vane kisses her again and she won't take responsibility if anything happens more than a kiss.

Rey closed her eyes as Vane approached her face and seconds later Rey felt Vane's lips touch her face. Not on his lips but on his right cheek.

"Good night" Vane said softly and when Rey opened her eyes, she was greeted by a smile on Vane's face.

Before Rey could understand what was happening, Vane had already left the studio.

"WHAT THE HELL! THIS SHOULDN'T TO HAPPEN!!!"

Rey yelled in frustration while ruffling her hair even she occasionally hit innocent air altogether. STUPID MAN!

*****

As soon as Vane walked into her room, she locked herself in before falling to the floor behind the door. Burying his face on both hands he growled.

"Why does Rey have to kiss me? It will make things more complicated" Vane said.

"Okay, maybe it's not entirely his fault. But why did I bodo had to return her kiss. Aakkhhhh" yelled Vane hit his knee.

Not just reply but Vane seems enthusiastic if more specific. Oho! Suppose she didn't see Rey's red face that made her spill her whole heart on that kiss.

"NOO!!! What should I do tomorrow if I see Rey again?"asked Vane with his two eyebrows that were already intertwined.

"No way, should I pretend that the kiss didn't happen? Which stupid human will forget that!"earmarked.

Vane touches his lips with his fingers and the memory of the kiss comes back to haunt him. He can still even feel Rey on his tongue, he can get drunk with that feeling if he's not careful. What's he gonna do next? He seemed obviously very sorry after giving Vane the most terrible kiss he had ever felt in his entire life.

Vane forced himself to stand up and walk towards the dressing table. He smeared his night skincare as usual. Oh God why did you give Vane a near-perfect face. With a smooth white face, small and pursed lips, a pointed nose, and sharp brown eyes.

Vane laid her body on the bed trying to close her eyes. But it was hard for her, and she stared at the ceiling of her room as if she was counting sheep to help her sleep. Enveloped in darkness, Rey's song lyrics ring back in her ears. He had never seen someone so talented, as well as so miserable with his life.

Sarah was wrong to think Rey loved her more than her papa, because based on the emotions she poured into her song, Vane gets that Rey loves her papa more than anything and that's why her disappointment with her papa feels deeper.

He really wanted to help Rey solve her problem. Vane sighs when she realizes that a few months ago she tried to help Rey's career by agreeing to marry him. And now Vane is faced again with Rey's other life problems. Oh what problem is there with humans in Rey's life? The thought of it made Vane finally fall asleep just like that.

*****

And now Rey's crew has started to enter the studio. They have taken their own positions to play musical instruments. Then the vocal director was already sitting in front of the control table. Rey is already in the live room to start the sound test. When he started to sing he took the wrong tone, and it made him have to repeat from the beginning again.

"Rey, if you haven't been able to concentrate on training, you better take a short break and then we continue" said the vocal director.

Rey nodded then walked out of the live room and sat down on the sofa next to Reza who was currently also in his studio. Reza also participated in the preparation of the soundtrack song of this film, because Reza is good at playing guitar. So no wonder he is also good at seducing women.

"Lo why the hell? Doesn't seem like it's consent? You ate, right?"ask Reza casually.

Rey hasn't answered, she's still reminded of what happened 20 minutes ago in the studio before her band arrived.

"Lo's wife is not a chef, surely she loves four healthy foods five perfect dong?"reza asked again with a giggle and she immediately got a strange look from Rey.

"Oh it looks wrong, not four perfectly healthy five. But five healthy six full of love eeaakkk" said Reza laughing satisfied with raising his thick eyebrows.

Rey immediately hit Reza's stomach until the man stopped his insulting laughter at his best friend who became the newlywed.

"Whisper you, I swear! I asked you to make this song" Rey said.

"Niesel? But my services are still used until now"reza reply full of victory.

If Reza is not one of the talented artists in his entertainment company, it has been a long time since Rey decided to work with Reza. But unfortunately Reza's talent is never exhausted to be exploited.

"By the way, how does it feel to be a newlywed? Life is safe, peaceful, and perfect, right? Moreover, having a beautiful wife like an angel from the seventh sky. If I like that I also want to, but unfortunately already in the first place. And I'm also not the type of living creature that likes to snatch the property of others let alone my own friends" Reza said meaningfully.

Now Rey had looked at Reza with a look of admiration. Since when did the crocodile seal the axe so wise? Did he eat wrong? Or wrongly kiss a woman's lips? God, why is Rey thinking about kissing again?

"Rey, I as a normal man obviously can not stand the charm of your wife who is very forgiving. I don't see him every day. Moreover, you can say every day to see him in this house. So how you can handle yourself, when this woman always in front of your eyes and she will enter in your heart" Reza said as she pointed at Rey's chest with her index finger.

Rey looks at Reza's face which she can see from the eyes of her best friend there is a warning, if someday she will fall in love with the woman. And he could not anticipate anything. Reza then put his shoulder and got up from the couch grabbed the guitar and played a song that made Rey's heart beat.

If Rey's mood isn't fucked right now, he would throw Reza with drumsticks to stop her singing while playing the guitar because she was currently playing a song about someone falling in love.
