Chapter 662 - Six Hundred And Sixty-Two: Blood Lust

The third point of view:

"Who -?!" Ailee was agitated that someone had dared to snatch away her cigarette - even though she was scared of being discovered - and turned to face the expressionless Neon.

She gulped, nobody knew about her smoking, all except him. Neon was the only one who knew of her bad habit and has been keeping it a secret all along.

"You said you were going to stop," He said and then tossed the cigarette to the ground, flattening it with his feet.

Ailee almost cried inwardly, that was the last cigarette she had left, and was hoping that would mark the last smoke she would ever take in her lifetime. She was prepared to savor the feeling but that was not going to happen any longer.

"It was the last stick," she said.

"That\'s no excuse," Neon scolded her, "A promise is a promise,"

"Fine, I\'m sorry," Ailee had no choice but to apologize knowing that Neon had a strong code of honor.

She lowered her head, "I just craved a little...." she trailed off meeting his gaze. He wouldn\'t understand anyway since he was the perfect son and saint.

With a sigh, Neon reached into his bag and brought out a lollipop, unwrapped its wrapper, and gave it to her.

"Take," He said.

"What?" She was confused at the lollipop in front of her and her brows raised questioningly, "What should I do with - mmh," she was still talking when Neon took the lollipop and pushed it into her mouth.

"Anytime you feel the urge to smoke, just pick up a lollipop, it\'s sweeter than smoking anyway and it\'s not addictive nor does it pose a danger to health -"

"You forget diabetes," She reminded him.

"I have never heard anybody develop diabetes because of lollipops, so stop being a baby and lick that instead. In Fact...." Neon trailed off and opened his backpack and Ailee\'s eyes almost bulged out of her socket.

"What the hell?" Ailee muttered as she stared at sachets of sweets in Neon\'s bag that were of different makes, and flavors.

"Who did you get all this for?" She was dumbfounded knowing that her brother never hit her as someone who enjoyed sweets - at least not by this much.

"We are what we repeatedly do and it takes twenty-one days to form a habit. I knew your craving might act up anytime so I prepared myself for that," He explained to the stunned Ailee, "I didn\'t know what makes you love, so I bought every product I could find. You indeed love the Apple flavor, but it wouldn\'t be so bad to explore other flavors… " He grinned at her sheepishly, "So I bought every flavor I could find," Neon then waited for her to compliment him for his hard work.

"God, Neon!" Ailee was overwhelmed by his gesture, "This is so stupid..." she said, causing Neon\'s lips to twitch, and his face almost fell but Ailee added immediately, "Yet so sweet. Thank you so much,"

She engulfed him in a hug and?Neon hugged her back, a smile crossing his features. Without Ailee even knowing, he sniffed her hair, savoring the strawberry-scented shampoo she had used, before burying his face into her hair.

It felt nice, this moment. If only it could last forever, he wished. However, at that same time, the strange message he had received on his phone crossed his mind and he stiffened. Unfortunately, Ailee noticed his reaction and pulled away at once.

"Hey, is everything alright?" she asked, brows drawn together.

"Of course, I\'m fine," He lied through his teeth. Neon wondered if he should tell Ailee the truth since she was the closest to him, however, what if he was making a huge deal out of nothing. His mother was in a safe mental asylum and if she did escape, the hospital would have notified them already.

Perhaps, he was worrying too much and whoever sent that message must have been to the wrong person. Yes, that must be it. There was no cause for alarm.

"Why do you ask?" he asked, making up his mind to keep the secret from her.

"I don\'t know, just thought you trembled all of a sudden," Ailee couldn\'t explain it.

"Is nothing," Neon smiled at her, his eyes fixed on the way she sucked the lollipop. The sweet moved freely inside her mouth while her lips held the stick still even as she talked.

Her lips...

Neon gulped, clenching his fist tight by his side. Right now, he looked like a vampire unable to control his blood lust any longer. Yeah, that was how crazy Ailee was driving him.

His heart pounded hard in his chest and he imagined pushing her against the nearest wall and kissing the life out of her. God, he felt a reaction down there and he groaned inwardly. He had to control himself, he couldn\'t scare her with his feelings.

Ailee was innocently exploring the coconut flavored lollipop Neon had given her when she glanced up and her eyes connected with his darkened eyes.

Her heart skipped a beat, it was that look again - the one he had given her that day when they fell. Unfortunately, this one was more intense, and sincerely, it scared her.

"Why are you staring at me that way?" Ailee was beginning to feel uncomfortable.

"How does it taste?" he asked back.

"What?" Ailee was still asking when he snatched the lollipop from her mouth and put it in his, beginning to lick it without even wiping off her saliva on it. She shivered, does he even know that was an indirect kiss?

"Mmm, delicious," Neon moaned, shutting his eyes close as he tasted the lollipop.

For some strange reason, Ailee found that innocent move by Neon was quite sexy and her cheeks burned. She felt like the air around them had dwindled. God, why was this place suddenly hot?

"Do you want it back?" Neon asked, pulling the sweet out of his mouth after a while.

"No," Ailee said immediately. Was she crazy? She\'d be tasting his saliva then? God, this was crazy, she had to leave.

"See you in class," Ailee quickly hurried out of the place.

"Hey, wait for me!" Neon went after the girl who hightailed it out of there.

However, none of them get to see Allen come out of his hiding place with his brows furrowed at them.
