Chapter 202 - Her Disposition His Preference

Chapter 202 - Her Disposition His Preference

*Chu* *Chu* *Chu*

Jerlina couldn't stop herself from kissing Jeremy.

*Clang*

Jerlina heard the plate getting thrown at the sink and the next moment she was lifted off the floor. She heard the pan getting thrown on the stove and his strong hands wrapped around her tush.

Before she could get an idea of what was going on, she ended up on the counter and he was standing in between her legs.

"What?" Jerlina was not fazed and wrapped her hand around his shoulders.

She found that no matter what she does to him, he'd only be gentle with her. And that made her act more playful than she is generally. Or maybe she was just happy and is doing whatever she pleases.

Who knows and who cares?

Jeremy's blue eyes that seemed like the deep, calm sea, were fixing on her. His lips were glistening and she could hear his breathing sound as he seemed a little out of breath.

"You're getting brazen..." he clenched his jaws as if he was holding something back.

Jerlina grinned ear to ear. "Do you prefer me hiding under the bed fearing you?"

"No, I love you like this," he leaned forward and kissed her lips. His hands held her waist and Jerlina kissed him deeper.

Jeremy indeed was hapy she's this open with him. She used to be so scared of him in the past and it made a deep impression on him. He is not someone who minds his friends pranking him or making fun of him.

If it is her, he wouldn't mind it if she sticks a knife in his heart as long as she is not scared of him.

But she doesn't hate him either. In fact, she loves him!

Why would he mind it if she teases him at times?

"Hey Jerlina..." he placed a peck on her lips and pulled her closer to him. Her thighs were around his waist and her face was close to his.

"I can do better than last night, you know..."

Jerlina saw his pouty face and felt bad for him. She didn't think that he'd get hung up on her words this much.

But then he's a man, isn't he? And it is his male pride on the line. He won't be able to let it go as such.

"Yesterday was amazing, Joel," she kissed him. "And if you did better than yesterday... I fear if I will be able to handle you?" She pouted and looked down as if she was worried.

She knew she can handle him but she lied to boost his ego she bruised by saying that yesterday was 'meh'.

"Yeah," he said.

Jerlina smiled in her heart seeing his face brighten up instantly.

Men and their egos!

"You're so frail... Your bones are sticking out and I fear if I might snap it accidentlly by holding you hard," he pressed his lips and his eyes were filled with concern.

He really means it!

"How much do you weigh anyway..? You're so light..." he hugged her close and his big hand grazed her along the spine making her close her eyes.

He was so gentle and soothing.

"You cannot ask a woman's age and weight, Joel. It's rude," she said although she didn't mind him asking that to her.

"It is?" Jeremy was surprised. He didn't know that.

"Yes, unless you're a doctor," Jerlina looked at him being a bit surprised. "Well, did you go around asking women-"

"No," he shook his head and Jerlina chuckled.

She figured that much. He probably didn't care about any woman enough to know their weight.

"You're a good guy, Joel... And I am not fragile to be broken by your touches, Joel. And you don't get violent with me anyway," she pressed her forehead on his. "And even if you want to be rough, I can handle you in your entirety."

"Oh, can you?" Jeremy smirked.

In my entirety? Is she saying this knowing my size? She has guts, I'd say.

Jeremy was indeed surprised. No woman has actually said that to him till now. They all didn't want him to go deeper.

Ah... maybe she is speaking without knowledge.

"Yes, I can," Jerlina nodded.

"Hmm," Jeremy bit his lips. He liked that determinant look on her face. And he was amazed to see her not hesitating to talk about these things.

Guess. She is not shy when she is not drunk either!

One of the things he loved about her when he met her was how she was very open and not shy to do what she wanted. Maybe there are some men in the world who like shy women, but he is not one.

"Did you remember what you were going to tell me?" he asked and he could watch her face getting beet-red. Her eyes became misty and her lips turned red as she bit them.

So... she gets shy about this... Isn't she adorable?

Poor Jeremy didn't even realize that Jerlina is not the one aligning with his preferences but rather than that, he likes everything Jerlina is, and her disposition has turned to his preference.

Jerlina's heart started to pound looking in his eyes. It would have been better if she had forgotten about it, but she didn't.

She had a sign of blind courage for some seconds last night, but then this guy ruined it. But now...

Ah, I can't do it now! My heart is pounding and...

How should I say it? He's so handsome and...

"No!" she pushed him and got down from the counter and ran out of the kitchen.

"Wait, you little..." Jeremy tried to catch her but she ran out at the speed of sound.

"What a speed! She really is a squirrel," Jeremy chuckled and went back to the kitchen.

His eyes widened realizing that she has left without eating a single bite.

He quickly packed her breakfast and picked up the packed lunch on the counter and ran outside. Her car just got out of the garage and he ran and blocked her.

Jerlina who was fleeing like a murderer fleeing a crime scene without knowing what she was doing, braked her car seeing Jeremy standing on her way with two bags in his hands.

He had perspiration on his forehead and he seemed a little out of breath.

Did he run here in a hurry to give me my lunch? Ugh! How can I not love him?

"You could have brought this to the office, you know?" she asked rolling down the window.

Yeah, I could have... We work in the same place...

Jerlina saw how confused he looked and smiled. Her hand reached her heart as she felt the tingling feeling in her heart.

He likes coming after me, huh? He does that without thinking.

"Thank you," she got the bags from his hand.

The slight graze of her fingers brought back Jeremy who was in a trance. But he quickly got on his feet.

"If I brought it to the office, I cannot do this," he said with a smirk.

Jerlina furrowed her brows wondering what he is doing.
