"Yes? "

"Dance with me"

Eh?

Did I heard it right?

"Eh? "

I asked just to make sure I wasn't hearing it wrong.

He sighed and grabbed my hand. And before I could even react,  he was already dragging me in the middle of the crowd.

My eyes swept across the people until it met Maxwell-sama's.

He was looking at us,  silently and I averted my gaze.

Oi.

I'm not feeling guilty okay?

Why should I be?

This is isn't cheating right!

Ah mou~

Left with no choice,  and since I don't want to appear rude in front of these people and Lomiere-sama by rejecting him,  I obediently dance with him in silence.

His other hand ran through my arm and reached for my hand. His other hand gently slided around my waist.

I gulped my saliva down feeling a little nervous inside.

For some reason.

The thing inside me kept beating.

It was fast.

It was loud that I am afraid he can hear it.

However,  it was warm.

It was comforting.

As if, it waited for this moment to come by.

Everything went in slow motion as Lomiere-sama took the lead and starts to dance slowly.

His hand was big.

And warm.

If feels really nice to touch.

As this thing kept beating,  I cannot bare to raise my head and look at him in his eyes.

Even though I couldn't see it,  I can sense he was looking at me.

"Why are you so tense? "

Without realizing it,  his face went close to my ear as he said those words.

Tensed as I already am,  feeling the hot sensation crawl across my body,  I became more tensed.

"Uhh.. This.. "

He moved his face away and look at me as I was still staring at his chest,  not wanting to look at him in the eyes.

"Raise your head"

I didn't answer.

"Raise it and look at me"

He once again spoke.

I bit my lower lip and didn't answer him.

"Bettina"

Shocked,  I abruptly raised my head.

His face was so close to mine that he almost had kissed my forehead.

I blinked continuously.

"Pardon? "

He raised his brow.

"What? "

"Did..did you just call me.. "

"Bettina? "

Cutting me off,  he answered very quickly.

It's not like it's a big deal for him to call me that but..

Oh My, BETTINA-SAMA! Where stories live. Discover now
