The Bodyguard

Chapter Seven: Fiancée!

"Ren, sorry." Len said and grabbed my hand.

"Why were you so spacing out for?" I asked. He didn't answered. "It's about that Kim girl, right?"

"Yes, no, I don't know. My head is confuse." Len said. I put my hand at his shoulder.

"Tell me everything." I said.

"It's about the girl I danced with at the Halloween Dance." Len said. I blushed when I remembered the kiss we share. "She's not from the high society. The way she moves and talk aren't elegant, but somehow she fascinate me." Len said.

"And have you tried to look for her?" I asked.

"Yeah I tried. Since she's a commoner, she must be scholar, there is no way she snuck. The security here is tight, but then I met up with all the scholars, but there wasn't any girl with same black hair and her eyes..." Len said and deeply sigh.

"Don't worry, maybe she's too try to reach you someway." I said. "And what will you do about Kim?" I asked.

"I'll call off the engagement, because she's not the girl that I like." Len said and I flushed. "Ren? Are you feverish?" Len leaned to me and I leaned back.

"I-I'm fine, don't come any closer!" I said. Len really want to see Rina... I think I should let him see her once more time.

"Ren, can you stay here with me for the night?" Len asked.

"Sure, as long as you won't tease me." I said. Len smile widely.

"No promise." Len said. I scoffed.

"Forget it then." I said, he quickly grabbed my arm.

"Wait, I was joking. I'll... I'll try not to tease you." Len said. I blushed and looked turned away from him.

"Fine I'll stay, but you have to give me the card access to the kitchen." I said. He quickly threw it in my hands. I looked at the card as if it a big pizza. Len chuckled.

"Ren, you are drooling." Len said, I quickly wiped it.

Later that day. Henry prepared a room for me, Emma knocked the door. "Come in." I said.

"Oh young mistress, how can I help you?" I said.

"What's going on?" Emma asked.

"I'm staying here for the night. Don't worry I made sure that I'm separate from Len." I said and showed her the kitchen card. "Look, Len gave me the card to access to the kitchen. Now I'll eat whenever I want."

"Rina--" Emma said.

"At work I'm Ren." I said.

"Ren, this card access you to the whole mansion." Emma said.

"What? Why Len gave me something like that?" I asked. Emma sadly sighed.

"... Because he trusts you." Emma sadly said. Part of me was happy, but the other one was sad.

"Oh I'm honored." I said.

"Well good night." Emma said.

"Wait!" I said.

"What?" Emma asked.

"About the date with Ran... It's going to be tomorrow at five pm." I said. Emma happily smiled a wide smile. "Now goodnight." I pushed her outside the room, suddenly someone knocked the door. Wow, did she from joy forgot. "I told you--" suddenly a hand grabbed my arm and slammed me to the wall. When I looked at who, it was Len.

"What do you think you are doing?" Len said.

"I-I... uhm..." I was completely speechless. He grabbed my arm.
