Falling for My Ex's Roommate

Chapter 5

The volcano erupted, then calmed down.

But soon, it was on the verge of erupting again.

However, Simon gently pushed me away and pulled me to stand up.

I just felt that his expression was very strange.

There was also a very unfamiliar smell permeating the air.

I couldn't help but ask, "Simon, what happened to you just now?"

His ears were red as blood.

The usually cold and aloof man now had eyes full of deep desire.

"I'm going to take a shower."

He stood up, lowered his eyes and pulled down the hem of my messy hoodie.

"You sleep first."

Before I could say anything, Simon had already quickly entered the bathroom.

When the sound of water started, I lay on Simon's bed and rolled over.

Then I cooled my burning face with the back of my hand.

I seemed to have vaguely guessed something.

But Simon was tall and often exercised, with lean muscles all over.

He had a high, straight nose bridge and a sharp jawline.

His fingers were also very long, with strong knuckles.

No matter how you look at it, he doesn't seem like the type of guy who would... um, finish so quickly.

Could it be that he hadn't had a girlfriend before?

And had never been intimate with a girl?

Thinking this way, my heart started to fill with sweet bubbles.

I lay on Simon's pillow and accidentally felt a pearl earring under his pillow.

The earring looked very familiar.

It was one of a pair that I loved to wear daily.

Once when I came to Zack's dorm, I accidentally lost one and couldn't find it no matter how hard I looked.

So it turns out Simon had picked it up.

I suddenly remembered.

In those previous dreams, Simon seemed to have kept this earring with him all the time.

After being dazed for a while, I put the earring back under his pillow.

The sound of the hair dryer stopped.

When Simon came out, he was wearing a set of navy blue pajamas.

After the steam, his skin looked as white as jade.

With his hair falling neatly, that sharp coldness from before faded a bit.

Somehow, I felt Simon looked a bit cute at this moment.

Just as I was about to call out to him, there was suddenly a faint sound of people talking outside the door.

My expression changed, and I froze completely.

One of the voices outside was clearly Zack's.

Simon's face also darkened, but he obviously reacted faster than me.

By the time Zack pushed open the door, Simon had already stuffed my clothes into the closet.

My shoes were hidden in the deepest part under the bed.

And Simon was just lifting the blanket to get into bed.

Only one night light was on in the dorm, the light dim.

I was hidden under Simon's blanket.

There was only a slight, inconspicuous bulge.

Even if Zack came closer, he wouldn't notice anything unusual unless he looked carefully.

"Why did you turn off the lights so early?"

Zack asked curiously.

"Got caught in the rain. My head hurts a bit."

As Simon spoke, he gently gripped my restless wrist under the blanket.

The bed was only about 4 feet wide, and Simon was tall with long legs, taking up a lot of space.

My whole body was almost pressed against him.

My breath faintly brushed against his waist.
