Sometimes she hated it, sometimes she thought it was endearing. But when the attention wasn’t focused on her, she most definitely got jealous. Was this the sort of life he led outside of Shinra Inc. before she met him? Probably. It’s not like she knew. She watched him from a bench in the lobby as he traveled his way into the heart of a desk clerk. Why was she even swooned by his charm? His charm belonged to her and her only. But if she honestly and truly believed that, then why was she getting jealous?
Fine, two could most definitely play at that game. Sure she wasn’t completely and exactly confident considering well, flirting wasn’t her forte, but she would turn her jealously into determination. She kept her eye on the elevator, waiting for a victim to come out. Sure enough a young teenage boy emerged. She got up and approached him, talking to him… or making some sort of attempt to. Her words came out more like demanded than soft and seductive.
“I would like to compliment you on the shirt you are wearing. It… suits you.”
“Thanks…” was the shaky replied that she received.
“And your hair, it is nice.”
“Er- ”
Sure enough she got the attention she deserved. Her actions caught the eye of one male who casually walked over.
“Is there a problem?” The black haired male asked.
The no name guy looked up at the taller male. Actually, it looked if he was sort of relieved that he showed up.
“No,” she said, not even turning to him. She knew who it was and felt no need to turn a head.
“Good,” he said with a smile. But his eyes told a different story. They shot a glare to the male who just bowed and awkwardly left, almost stumbling over his own feet.
Once the room cleared a bit, he knelt down beside her.
“What’s going on, Shelke?” His voice was filled with concern.
“Like I said, it was nothing.” The male knew that tone all too well.
“Ah ha, you’re upset with me. You think I was flirting with the clerk weren’t you?”
“Y-No.” Why did she have to stumble over her words? Of course she thought that.
“Now that I have you, there’s nothing for you to worry about. I was asking her about the company’s new policies. She acting a bit nicer than I expected and I just played along. She asked me out to the lunch and I declined. Honest. You can go over there and ask her if you want.”
And the words coming out of his mouth sounded so true that she just had to believe him.
“My… apologizes,” Shelke said to him, looking Zack straight in the eye.
“Nah, don’t worry about it. I’ve got you to keep an eye on me.”
He smiled again and moved forward to place a kiss on her forehead and then on her lips. Blushing wasn’t something Shelke usually did, but considering they were in public…
“Zack…” She turned to the people who happened to be watching them. All he did was smile.
“Don’t mind us. I’m what they call a flirt, so I’m doing what I do best, flirting.”
