"This is not the way to my apartment" Dara protested as she observed the streets. He must have paved his way to his apartment. Lothian Road has never been crossed by Nicholas. The only way leads to his apartment, where Nicholas was once chastised by some drunken young men there.
"Indeed I won't take you there, '" chuckled Nicholas. His facial expression was naughty, making Dara resentful instead of playing.
"Hey, you have to tell me the truth, Dara. What did my mom tell you?"
Dara grumbling. "Are you not eavesdropping?"
"Eavesdropping? Am I lacking a job?"
Dara's lips pursed. He glanced at Nicholas. What was on the young man's mind now. To be taken to his apartment which is.
"So?" urged Nicholas.
"Your mother .. doesn't forbid me from being friends with you. But, you'll still be betrothed to the girl who's worth your family." What Portia conveyed was more or less like this, although it had to be with words that belittled her.
Nicholas. "Geez, that woman is really a colossus."
"Who wants to be your wife? His son forced his will on me. There's-there's only your mother," grumbled Dara.
"Hey .. You've accepted me to be your girlfriend. You remember?"
Dara narrowed her eyes to look at Nicholas. He disagreed with the young man's statement. "You're not making this up, Nic. When did I accept you to be my girlfriend?"
"What was your kiss last night not the answer?"
"Damn it!" maki Dara made Nicholas harden his laughter. "See?"
Dara twists both eyeballs. He hated his weak self. Nicholas seemed to have desperately cast a charm before him last night, until his defense collapsed.
"Already, Dara. Just accept the reality. You like me and you're my girlfriend now."
"Pffmhh! Unilateral claim. Again," said Dara. He doesn't like to be in this situation. If Nicholas was a commoner, like Braden, for example, maybe Dara would just accept the taste that the young man had to offer. Unfortunately, Nicholas' background is so terrible. He cannot fall in love with Nicholas.
"You know, Thomas had a wife from a modest family. Portia disagrees. But, he doesn't care" Nicholas told me.
"Oh yeah? How then?"
"He chose to get out of the mansion and build his own life. But, that was five years ago. His relationship with Portia has improved. You saw for yourself that she didn't come to visit my mother."
Dara nodded. But then he looked at Nicholas. "You're in big trouble" he said.
"What do you mean?" nicholas did not understand.
"Your mother won't let you repeat what Thomas did."
Nicholas. "Why do you think that?"
"How many brothers are you?"
"Three people. Thomas, my arch-enemy Alexandra, and me."
Dara threesome. "Your mother can't bother Thomas anymore. Alexandra, she's your mother's accomplice. So, he's not a problem. While you, the youngest son your mother will keep from repeating your brother's mistakes."
"Is that?"
Dara nodded. He could deduce it from Portia's words at dinner. The woman was so keen that Nicholas would be the successor to their family tradition-married to an equal girl.
"Unfortunately I've been following in my brother's footsteps."
Dara took a deep breath. "Later you'll lose your inheritance if you dispute your mother's wishes."
"Fuck that."
Dara sneers. "I doubt you can live a simple life."
Nicholas chuckles. "Well with you I can."
"Omong empty!" dara Spray. He doubted that very much. There's no way a Nicholas would let go of it all for his sake.
"Do I have to stay here again?" ask Dara lazily.
"Yes. If you need to stay here with me," sniffed Nicholas as he rushed out, then circled the car and opened the door for Dara.

Dara could not close her eyes. The clock shows twelve o'clock at night. He was still at home sitting in a chair by the window, occasionally looking at Nicholas who was sound asleep on the bed.
The spacious room was so quiet. Only Nicholas' breathing was regular. Lately, he has been unable to resist all of Nicholas' wishes - except for that one. He did not want if he began to get used to the presence of Nicholas, until someday he would be difficult to escape.
"Why not sleep?" nicholas asked Dara to gasp.
"Eitherway. I'm not sleepy."
"Dry!"
"don't want. I'm just here."
Nicholas clucked. He wanted Dara beside him so that he could hug the girl. "Hurry now!" his orders.
"I said I didn't want to."
Nicholas snarling. He lifted the blanket and got off the bed and approached Dara. "Come ...." He extended a hand.
"No way!" Dara brushed off Nicholas' hand. "Eh! Nic! lower it!" he strangled as the young man lifted him up by force and carried him to the bed.
"Shut up here, don't go anywhere!" he said while holding Dara tightly, so that the girl had trouble releasing herself.
"Gee! Nic! Why do you always do this. Force your will!" gerutu Dara.
"Don't be noisy!" Nicholas flinching. He did not intend to let go of the girl just like that.
Dara grunted in annoyance. The young man who was lying next to him, while his hands clenched himself tightly this was really annoying. And the most annoying thing is, Nicholas looks very handsome with his messy hair. Dara really has to be careful with her feelings.
"Nic ...," call Dara a moment later the silence again hit the room room.
"Hmmm ...."
"You're asleep?"
"Almost. Why?"
"I'm restless. I can't sleep."
Nicholas opened his eyes. He released his arms to Dara. Then raise your head and support it with your palms. "What are you thinking?"
"I don't know. I'm confused."
Nicholas breathed slowly. His hands slowly tidied up the children's hair Dara covered part of the girl's forehead.
"Do you like me, Dara?" nicholas asked pleased with the hoarse voice.
"I don't know."
Nicholas smiled broadly. "Ah, your answer is better. You used to be so assertive that you didn't like me. Yea! Level up!" cheers happy.
Dara tried to hold back her laughter. Nicholas is like a child who is excited when he gets a new toy. His hand moved to grab a handful of Nicholas's hair and pulled him slowly. "Basic freak!" skink.
"Without realizing you've started liking me, Dara. In your mind this ...." Nicholas tapped Dara's forehead with his index finger. "It's full of my shadow."
"You're overconfident" said Dara. However, he half confirmed the young man's speech. Lately he had been so agitated at the thought of his strange feelings for Nicholas. The young man always haunts his mind.
"Receive and enjoy" Nicholas said in a soft voice. His eyes were already heavily resisting the drowsiness.
Accept and enjoy. Does it have to be. What if he really fell in love with this crazy young man.
