142 Spending Night with Him
“Sleep here tonight,” Sean said as he tugged on my hand to keep me from leaving.
I turned towards him before glancing down, afraid to meet his pleading gaze. If I looked at him, I felt like my resolve would melt into thin air.
“No, I should go back...” I told him softly.
“You will sleep here with me tonight,” Sean insisted firmly.
As if he was scared that I would escape from him, Sean pulled me into his embrace and wrapped his arms around my body tightly. I could smell the smell of his soap along with his smell as I breathed him in. His hair was still damp from the shower that we shared, and he looked so homey and so different from the usual EROS that I was used to that it was hard for me to believe that this man was the same superstar that captured the hearts of millions in his hands.
“EROS...” I mumbled as I tried to push against his chest.
“Call me Sean...” Sean urged in a low whisper before he placed a soft and sweet kiss on my forehead.
Unlike the passionate kisses that we shared, that soft tender kiss made me feel all funny inside and a blush crept up into my cheeks.

.....
“You’re very...strange...” I mumbled before I gazed up at his mesmerizing amber eyes.
“I’m happy with being strange if that’ll make you stay over with me tonight,” Sean concluded before dragging me off to his bedroom.
Lying in bed next to Sean felt extremely bizarre but not in a bad way. Although we’ve done way more intimate things with each other just before this, it felt strange to be lying next to him on his bed while holding his hand in mine. I felt oddly nervous and out of place while Sean seemed as at home and as relaxed as ever.
“Do you...sleep with girls often?” I asked before I could stop myself.
I bit my own tongue. Why am I asking him that?
“I have sex with them often. This is the first time that I’m having one spend the night,” Sean replied so matter-of-factly that I was taken aback at first.
At least, he didn’t seem offended by my question at all.
“Am I supposed to feel special that I’m the first one sleeping with you?” I asked with a small laugh.
“No. I just wanted to try it out...” Sean replied flatly.
Well, it wasn’t like I had my hopes up for anything. I stared at Sean’s beautiful face and his straight nose in the dim orange warm light, and it made me realize that perhaps Sean was really trying to learn about relationships and about love.
What is love?
I wasn’t entirely certain that I understood it that well. Maybe, I was just as clueless as Sean is about it, but I just had the ability to pretend and act like I understood it better.
“Can I ask you a random question?” I asked.
Sean’s eyes shifted to my face before he nodded. This might be a little unexpected and out of the blue but, I really wanted to know if he knew anything that might be useful in easing my curiosity.
“You see, when your father...umm...got aggressive with me. He mentioned that I resembled someone that he knew ‘very very well’, so I was wondering if you have any idea who he could be referring to?” I asked before biting down on my lower lip anxiously.
Perhaps Simon was just going on about some nonsense. Perhaps it was just as I said, and my face was just a common one in the crowd. However, I didn’t think that it would hurt to ask.
Sean lifted his head and rested it on his hand as he stared down into my face as if trying to recall someone up from his memories. His eyes narrowed at me, and I felt my heart start to race at his intense gaze. After a while, Sean just shook his head.
“I don’t know what he was talking about. I don’t know anyone who resembles you...” Sean replied with a regretful grin.

“Don’t go near him again. My father has a bad habit of fucking women that work for him. It’s always been that way since I was young, and I guess old habits die hard. When he said you resemble someone, he was probably referring to one of his lovers in the past. Since you look nothing like my mum...” Sean replied followed by a sarcastic laugh.
“I see...” I mumbled.
“Let’s not talk about this anymore. Let me cuddle you so that we can go to sleep,” Sean coaxed as he wrapped his arms around my body.
“Wait...” I murmured in protest as my entire body stiffened.
“Lovers are supposed to do this before they go to bed, right?” Sean mumbled as he buried his face against the side of my neck.
I wondered where he read or heard about things like that. Since it was probably useless to resist him, I let him cuddle me and soon, I ended up falling asleep peacefully in his arms.

“How are things, girl?” Jason asked in his teasing drawl.
For some reason, Jason gave me a call bright and early in the morning. This never happened unless he’s got something to talk to me about. I gave him a vague reply while I waited for him to get to the main point of this phone call.
“The thing is...EROS’s agency requested for more of your time...” Jason divulged before giggling gleefully.
“Why would they do that?” I asked, pretending not to know the cause of this.
“Obviously because EROS asked for it,” Jason replied but his tone told me that he wanted some juicy explanation for this turn of events from me.
