After giving up on Katarina, Nicole Ascart thought he would never get interested in anyone else ever again. Yet fate doesn't seem to agree when he ends up falling in love with
Y/n Claes.
Will the handsome quiet, young man finally conquer the heart...
Arriving at the Ascart estate, it took the H/c haired girl some courage before she eventually knocked on the door and waited for someone to open up. But while waiting, the girl nervously fidgeted with the sleeve of her dress
" Oh shoot" she stared down at her clothes " I forgot to change into my regular dress"
Right as she realized this, the door creaked open and there stood Sophia
" Lady Y/n? How can I help you?"
" Well...I..euhm need to talk to your brother" you nervously rubbed your upper arm
" He's not here right now but if you want you can come in and wait till he returns. I'm sure it won't take to long"
Accepting her proposition, you entered the mansion and followed your friend to the living room " May I ask why you want to meet my brother?" Sophia questioned while walking through a hallway
Gulping, you didn't know if it was a good idea to tell her about Nicole's engagement offer. Because if this was new to her, you didn't know what kind of reaction she would give
'But on the other hand..If she does know something...Then maybe she can clarify the situation' you thought and clapped your hands together in satisfaction
' Alright then, that settles it, I'll ask her '
" If it's something you would rather not tell me, then that's alright" the girl gave you a reassuring smile and opened the door to the living room " But know that I'm here for you "
Feeling touched by her kindness, you gently took her hands in yours " Thank you Sophia, but I don't mind telling you. In fact I was hoping you could maybe help me understand"
Tilting her head to the side, the petit girl waited for you to continue " As you know, I'm currently looking, well actually forced..." you corrected with a groan " To find a fiancee before my eighteen birthday"
" That's already in four days!" Sophia said making you nod your head
" Yes but so far I haven't found anyone that I like. And sadly enough I'm almost running out of opti-"
" Wait! Does that mean you're not interested in my brother?" The girl leaped slightly forward and gripped your hands tighter
" Hold up!" you vigorously blinked your eyelashes " You know about Nicole's offer?"
" Of course I do!"
" Then tell me why is he doing that?" you freed your hands from Sophia's grip and paced around the room in circles
Looking at you, dumbfounded, the young girl didn't know if you were serious or not " Isn't it obvious..."
Shrugging your shoulders, Sophia face palmed at how dense you were " It's because he likes you"
" Well I obviously like him to" you sighed with crossed arms " He's a good friend of mine"
" No! Not in that way!" the white haired girl could practically feel steam coming out of her ears at how frustrated her friend was making her
" What do you mean then?" you exclaimed, feeling as equally annoyed because of how confusion Sophia was
" Lady Y/n, I mean that my brother has romantic feelings for you!"
"..."
"..."
"He...what?"
Puffing out her cheeks, Sophia stomped your way until she was just a millimeter apart from you " He does, he truly loves you"
" B-but s-since w-when?" you stammered with a red face " I..c-can't recall h-him e-ever s-showing it"
Letting out a deep breath, Sophia regained her composure and looked at you calmly " I understand why it wasn't noticeable to you" she smiled " After all my brother isn't the type to show his emotions. "
" Well he will occasionally smile" you remarked to which your friend hummed in agreement " Indeed, and I'm well aware that he only does that with people he feels comfortable or happy with"
" And out of everyone in the group, you're the one he often does that with " Sophia said with a closed eyed smile just before someone entered the living room
" Lady Y/n? Sophia?" the sound of the familiar voice made you stiff in place like a statue
" Welcome home brother" The girl bounced to her sibling, giving him a hug " We were actually waiting for you"
" Really? "
" Yes. You see Lady Y/n had something she wanted to discuss with you. So I'll leave you two alone"
Pivoting on her heel, Sophia was about to exit the room when she realized she had forgotten to say something. Heading back to her brother, the girl went to stand on the tip of toes and whispered in his ear a 'good luck'
' What does she mean by that?' the boy curiously thought as he watched his sister leave the room
