The Bad Boy Next Room (Charlie and Taylor)

Charlie was nervous, but becuase her sister said so, she went back. She turned

on the lights and observed Taylor. So far, he has not moved. Charlie quickly took another photo of him, and while she was doing it, Taylor turned around and laid on his back.

Through the video call, Freya was silently screaming. She mouthed, 'Take a picture! Oooh. He is handsome!'

Charlie's hands trembled as she took another shot.

"Get a close-up. Get a close-up," Freya whispered.

"Sshh. Quiet," Charlie scolded. She moved closer and took more photos of Taylor.

Charlie was ready to leave. She had turned on her heels when Taylor suddenly grabbed her arm! The next thing she knew, her entire body landed on the sheets, and she was lying next to Taylor!

"Aahhh!" Charlie and Freya screamed at the same time.

"What are you doing?" Taylor asked, his eyes still slightly shut, and his voice was hoarse.

Before Charlie could answer, Taylor took her phone, and when he saw Freya, he asked, "Who are you?"noveldrama

“Oh, hi, Taylor. I'm Charlie's sister, Freya. Charlie was just introducing you to me while you were sleeping!" Freya awkwardly answered.

Taylor frowned. Then, he smirked. He turned to Charlie, who was completely still in his arm, slightly shaking from the shock. He said, "Let me help you, Babe."

Posing next to Charlie, he took photos of them together. He made sure to get a good shot. Afterward, he smiled at Freya on the video call, saying, "Nice to meet you, Freya. Hope to meet you in person."

Then, Taylor gave Charlie the phone, asking, "Are you going to sleep here or what?"

"What?" Charlie frantically got off the bed, saying, "No. No!"

Very quickly, Charlie returned to her room. She closed the door and scolded Freya, "I told you we should not have turned on the lights!"

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry," Freya said. "Well, I have seen him, and I conclude that, indeed, he is trouble... in a different way."

"Oh, my god! He is so hot! Charlie, you have stumbled into a marvelous creation!" Freya exclaimed.

"So, Freya? What should I do?" Charlie asked.

"I don't know. I don't know how to help you, Baby Sister!" Freya said. "Now, I wish you had not told me about this. That way, I don't have to lie to Dad, but it's already there."

"Charlie, Dad will be angry for sure, but you'll always be my baby sister, and I love you," Freya declared. "Ultimately, it's your decision. But you don't have to worry. As your sister, I'll set up a private trust fund for you."

“Are you saying I should go with it?" Charlie asked.

"I'm not saying that." Freya reacted. "I'm saying I'll set up a private trust fund for you, you know, in case Dad disowns you! I gotta go, Charlie. You can figure this out all by yourself. And oh, please use protection -"

"Freya!"

Hours later, Charlie was drinking coffee at seven in the morning. She was already ready for school. Taylor walked out, freshly bathed and looking dashing. He poured himself a coffee, asking, "You did not sleep?"

Charlie narrowed her eyes at him and gave him the finger. She said, "Thanks to you."

Taylor laughed. He said, "How is that my fault?"

"It was your -" Charlie quoted with her fingers, saying, "Leave my door open" offer that kept me awake."

"Charlie, if you had accepted my invitation, you would have slept well in my arms," Taylor suggested with a wink.

When Charlie frowned, Taylor laughed again. He said, "Okay, I'm sorry. Tonight, I'll close my door. I hope it helps you sleep."

Later, evening came again, but despite Taylor closing his door, Charlie still could not sleep a wink. Her mind was constantly drifting to the person in the next room.

In her thoughts, she saw her Inner Devil throw a hundred arrows at her Guardian Angel.

Yep, it was an overkill.

"Fuck it." She got up and texted her sister: [Freya, better be ready with my trust fund!]

Freya: [I already initiated it this morning.]

Charlie grabbed her favorite plushie and marched out of her room. In front of Taylor's door, she wavered. His door was closed, but did he lock it? She grabbed the doorknob and turned it.

She gasped, her heart fluttering altogether!
