Take... take a shower?

After the kiss, Vera couldn't help but overthink when she heard him say this.

When Quill saw that she looked at him shockingly, with eyes filled with a strange expression, he knew that she had twisted his intention. He then softly explained.

"Go take a shower and calm down."

"Oh..." Vera nodded adorably, and then she walked off to the bathroom.

The bathroom was right where she could see it, so she walked toward it and closed the door behind her.

She then looked at herself in the mirror.

She looked at herself in the mirror and found that her face was rosy and her lips were red and plump from the kiss earlier. She merely stared at herself for a while before she lifted her hand to touch her lips with her fingers.

Was she hallucinating?

Quill kissed her just now? Moreover, it wasn't just a peck; it was...

As compared to when she secretly kissed him, this kiss was ten times more passionate than her secret kisses.

Was it fake? If she wasn't hallucinating, then she must be dreaming!

Vera suddenly pinched her cheek hard, causing her to shout in pain. Then she realized something and covered her mouth and widened her eyes.

Quill wasn't far away; could he have heard her shout?

Vera swallowed the pain, turned on the shower, and stood under the warm water.

All the filthy images had disappeared. Quill's kiss worked. Now all she could think about was that kiss.

Vera put her hands on her cheeks.

She didn't know how long she stayed in the shower when she heard a knock.
