My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

After being absent-minded for a while, I realized that Hendrix hadn't answered my question. I turned around and saw as lost in his thoughts as I was. "Why aren't you talking?" I asked.

Hendrix came around and said, "I was thinking about getting Aurelia's admission procedures done as soon as possible so that she won't fall behind and not be able to fit in with society in the future."

I pursed my lips and chuckled, exposing his thoughts by saying, "You're worried that Aurelia will come into contact with too few people and that she will fall for Neal. Be honest - you don't fancy Neal at all, do you?"

A hint of imperceptible contempt flashed across Hendrix's eyes as he said arrogantly, "I don't fancy anyone!"

Before I could react, he turned over and covered us with the quilt.

"What are you doing?" I pressed my hand against his chest, shocked. How could men think of that at any give time?

"I've lost, so you'll have to punish me." Hendrix frowned looking... sincere and expectant?

"Punish you? Then why are you pressing against me..." My words trailed off.
