Chapter 60 - 60. A good dream

Who doesn't have fun in this life, everyone does even those who lives in the forest away from civilization do have fun. They chased some wild animals where they are also chased by wild animals. We all have fun, don't we?

Vincent and Emelia had already ordered their drinks and having fun. They've drunk two shot of the schnapps and they've already began their journey of drinking.

Emelia signaled the bartender to bring more drinks but Vincent had to paused because he can't get drunk while there is girl he has to protect from who knows what inside this bar.

While Vincent and Emelia were drinking to their heart content, the manager spoke. "We are about to have a game, those who will win will be awarded with one litre of a Jagermeister and a bouquet of flowers for their loved ones.

Emelia lit up upon hearing the announcement the manager had just made. "Oooh, Vincent let's go join them" she said. Vincent turned to look at the stage and back at Emelia "no, I don't think so. Besides we don't know the type of game they are to play" he rejected her idea but Emelia wasn't backing down.

She managed to convince Vincent which he agreed to the game they were about to play but he had no idea what the game was about.

Four couples including Vincent and Emelia walked up to the stage waiting for the game to began. The manager began explaining what the game was about but the first challenge will be a dance battle between couples and those who will manage to capture the audience heart wins the first challenge.

The moment the manger said dance, Vincent turned to look at Emelia with there is no way I can fucking dance look written on his face but Emelia was so happy it was a dance battle for the first challenge. In fact, she is an extrovert plus the alcohol she had taken all combined.

Yes, there is not a 0.000001 percentage of shyness left in her. The moment the challenge started, Emelia untied her hair as he roll and wine her waist like a spring even Vincent stopped dancing just watching her.

The audience applauded while they began walking to stand in front of the stage cheering on her. The other couple tried to dance but didn't come close to Emelia.

Emelia's went ahead to wine on top of Vincent who was stunned just stood there while Emelia won then their fist challenge.

The rest of the challenge were more manly so Vincent had to take care of it. At the end of game they won the challenge and got the Jagermeister and bouquet of flowers.

Vincent gave the flowers to Emelia "this is for you pretty" Emelia received it while she blushed the hell out of her face making it obvious even the dog passing by could sense it.

But some weird reason, Vincent thought of Jae Won receiving this bouquet of flowers and he hoped the two of them were in this challenge in the beginning.

He threw the thought away as they went back to sit in on their table. Emelia didn't hesitate to open the Jagermeister they had just won just to celebrate their win "here is to us winning, cheers" she said as she raise the glass waiting for Vincent to raise his.

"Clang" the sound of the two glasses greeting each other. Emelia gulped down the whole glass while Vincent sip it slowly as if it will choke him.

After a while, Emelia couldn't put this thought that was bothering her. The fact that they won the challenge as a couple made her think it would be nice to be a real couple so she cleared her throat catching the attention of Vincent whose mind was far away from earth.

"Are you okay" Vincent asked while Emelia had lowered her head like a scolded kid. "Yes, uuurm I couldn't help but.." she waited for a while "but?" Vincent asked.

"Urrm, I really really love you. Can't you please reconsider to be my boyfriend? I mean we were good up there I couldn't help overheard the audience cheering us on a sweet couple. I would love it to be real" she finally said.

Vincent kept quiet for a while with Jae Won all over his mind "what's wrong with me?" He asked but Emelia thought the question was meant for her "nothing, I think is the feelings you are having for me" she said, her confidence level shot up to the highest degree.

Vincent shook his head in denial to what Emelia had said. But the more he thought of Jae Won the more his heart beat faster than usual.

'Am I having feelings for Jae Won? No it can't be' he thought on the other hand Emelia kept on talking to gain some points not knowing she was talking to a deaf ear.

"No it can be, it can be" he said it out loud confusing Emelia who was talking as if she was presenting her ideas in front of the board. Vincent stood up while Emelia did the same.

"Are you okay?" Emelia asked genuinely "I am okay. I'm fine. Let's go back" he said as he started to walk away as he he could think of was Jae Won but his wrist was held stopping him from moving forward. He turned to gaze at his wrist which was held and trace it back to the source of it.

"What about what I was saying earlier? What do you think?" Emelia asked hoping this time her confession would be accepted.

Vincent stood there for a while before he spoke "Eme, you know that can't happen. I appreciate the feelings you have for me but I only consider you as my sister and nothing more" he said.

Vincent started walking but he was pulled back and the next thing he realized was his lips being sealed by a warm sweet lips that tasted sour from the Jagermeister.

Vincent froze at that moment and a memory of Jae Won kissing him flashed in his mind. He was surprised because he thought he kissed him first but vice versa.

Vincent now came back to reality as he pushed Emelia back with his face open wide. "What in the na…." he stop as he began to walk away from her. What he couldn't understand was the fact he kept thinking about Jae Won in this moment.

After walking for a while, he didn't feel Emelia's presence as he turned back and he was right. He went back to the bar only to find Emelia seated at the table drinking the rest of the alcohol.

"Eme, it's late. Come on, let me take you home" he said after he walked up to her. Emelia shook her head in denial meaning she wasn't going back now "get the fuck out of my face. I can take care of myself. I'm not a fuckin child" she said as she took the glass heading straight for her mouth but it was taken out of her hands.

She looked up as she glared at Vincent to give back her drink but Vincent drank it. He managed to walked Emelia back to his hostel after a long struggle and many arguments about unnecessary things Emelia kept on blabbing.

After they got to her hostel, Emelia paused in her tracks as she turned to face Vincent, their lips an inch away "won't you still consider my feelings. I'm a good girl and I can take care of you" she said as tears began to run down her cheeks.

Before Vincent can answer, she kissed him passionately which Vincent responded to her but all he could think of was Jae Won. In fact, he wished he was kissing him as he remembered the kiss they shared the night before they came and couldn't help but want to feel his lips again.

This time, he was not drunk but a little tipsy which was encouraging him to go for it. He pushed Emelia away as he cleared his throat. "Emelia, I know you are a good girl and any man would love to be with you, but not me" he said it without filter.

Thank God Emelia was drunk, she wouldn't have talk to him and made sure ignored him whenever their paths crossed.

Emelia walked to her room, tears running down her cheeks as she sworn to stop loving Vincent. She has finally accepted the fact Vincent wouldn't see her as a woman ever in this life.

As Vincent stumbled back to his place, the lighting on the hallway as he navigated to his room. His mind was elsewhere consumed by thoughts of Jae Won.

He came back even though his friend had made it clear she was interested in him but all he could think of was Jae Won.

He got to his room and couldn't open the door as his thought was jumbled up making him forget the password.

The door was open and the person standing right of him was none other than the person who has taken over his mind. He kept staring at him as their eyes locked together and then back to his lips that kissed him back at home.

This made him wanted to taste more of it as he leaned in and kissed the soft lips that has been begging him and he didn't want to stop.

Now back at the present, they laid in each other arm while they cuddle themselves every single time through the night.

With smiles plastered on their face as the dream they both were having was a good one.
