Chapter 12 Help Me Grah My Underwear
“Are you here to watch me make a fool of myself?” Vivian snapped..
Arther shook her head. “Not at all. I just thought that someone as beautiful as you wouldn’t he short on admirers. You shouldn’t waste your tears on someone who do deserve them.”
Vivian blushed and lifted her chin with haughty pride. “What class are you from?”
“Class F. My name’s Arther.”
“casian looked at Aether disdainfully. “No wonder you’re trying to get in my good graces How typical of your class. Let me guess you’re hoping to get close to me, ride my mattails, and climb the social ladder, aren’t you?”
“I jant noticed that your makeup was smudged, and I happened to have a wet wipe. That’s all.”
Vivian scoffed. “I’ve seen plenty of guys like you who try to live off women only date someone better than me. But you? You’re beneath me. You’ll never catch my eye no matter what tricks you puli!–
without saying a single word, Aether walked around her and left.
Vivian placed her hands on her hips. “Did thit a nervelorving up so soon?”
Aether stopped in her tracks and turned accend. “I’m into men. I’m not interested in you. I I gave you the wet wipe because I thought you needed it.” with that, she
retumed to her dorm
This time, Vivian just clutched the wet wipe without saying anything
As soon as Arther stepped into the dorm, Zachary, who was in the bathroom, heard her and called out, “Can you grab me a pair of underwear?”
Aether was dumbstruck. Her face instantly flushed crimson. “Why can’t you get them yourself?“.
“I’m in the shower 1 can’t do it on my own,” he responded matter–of–factly. “Just grab any pair.”
Aether hesitated but ultimately went to his wardrobe, picked out a pair, and walked to the bathroom door. She knocked on it and said, “Here.” She stood with her back to the door, holding the underwear behind her
However, instead of taking it, Zachary said, “The door’s not locked just bring it in.”
“Why do I have to go in
Why are you being so shy? You’re a grown man as well,” Zachary said, perplexed. “My hands are covered in shampoo, and I can’t open my eyes”
“Then, I’ll leave it by the door. You can grab it once you rinse off.”
Zachary was at a loss. He couldn’t believe it. After all, it’s not like he was going to eat the guyalive. Technically, Aether was the one who was gay, so why was he acting shy? It was almost as if their roles were reversed.
Zachry stored out of the bathroom. Meanwhile, Aather had just picked up a small stool to set the underwear on when she turned and saw him standing there, completely naked. He swappered up to Aether and stretched out his hand. “Give it to me!
Ather smeked, dropping both the stool and the underwear. Her hands flew to coverber eyes, and she trembled. “Why did you come out naked?
“Don’t you see the shampoo in my hair?”
“That doesn’t mean you can just walk out like that!” Her cheeks were flaming, and she couldn’t bring herself to look at him. Her voice grew smaller as she continued, “I was going to leave it outside for you! Why didn’t you say something before barging okti
Zachary picked up the underwear and walled past her. He was confused when he noticed her tightly shut eyes. “I don’t get it. You’re a grown man, too. Why are you acting so shy? Don’t you use urinals? Have you never seen a guy’s
Can you not be so crude?
“Aw, what’s wrong? Have you never watched porn before?” he teased, growing more curious.
Arthur’s face turned scarlet “A–Are you going to finish your shower or not?”
Zachary’s hean fluttered when he took in Aether’s shy demeanor. It unsettled him. After all, the person in front of him was a guy who liked men! He felt like he had to be out of his mind to feel this owiwlerining urge to dominate Aether.

Zachary buried back into the bathroom and stood under the shower, trying to clearhis head and extinguish whatever feeling that was. Aether only went in and sat on the toilet to relieve hitself after he finished and walked out
Right then, she heard the doorknob turning. Aether knew that the person couldn’t enter, so she didn’t think much of it. Then, she heard a key tum in the lock, and Zachary walked right in

“I forgot my phone.”
“You couldn’t wait until I was done!”
“oh, please. I haven’t complained, yet you’re yelling at me?” Zachary asked as he walked over to the shelf above the toilet to grab his phone. Before leaving, he glanced at her and asked, “Are you constipated?!
“Do you also feel possessive over other people’s poo?” Aether shot back.

Zachary was caught off guard. He’d seen plenty of women ery, but never a man. It was a first for him. But he hadn’t done anything except go into the bathroom while Arther was on the toilet. 11 he didn’t know any better, he’d think that he’d dose something terrible to Aether

“How could you balge into the bathroom without asking for my permission?” she demanded.
Zachury was at a loss for words. It felt like they had been going in circles. He ultimately raised both his hands in surrender, okay, okay. From now on, if you’re in the bathroom. I never go in without your permission. Happy?
Kether walked up to him and beld up her pinky. “Pinky promise.”

She hooked his pink away. “There, you pinky promised. From now on, whoever enters the bathroom without the other’s permission is a pig!” Then, she stamped bus thumb withhers to seal the deal.

Cactuary stiffened, and Aether looked like she’d just rouched alive wire. Their eyes locked in stunned silence.
Dimmediately released her grip Zachary, on the other hand, got his awet. Aether’s hand wasn’t something he could hold onto.
Aether burnedly turned away, flustered. “W–What was I doing again? Oh, right, dinner! Do you want to have diner together, Zachary? – you do, I’ll make an
