Chapter 0305
I blanched. Where the hell did that come from?!
I shook my head, getting rid of every thought related to Aiden but who was I kidding? I was in his room.
Finally, I moved to sit on the bed and that was when I realized that since Aiden brought me to the room, while he cleared up stuff, I remained standing in that one position.
I closed my eyes and groaned. No wonder he looked like he couldn’t wait to leave the room. I must have really made him uncomfortable.
Losing myself in the plushness of the mattress as I laid in it, I admired the room from that point. Seems the interior design of all the rooms were the same.
Later, I removed my clothes and dragged myself to the bathroom where I had a long shower while 1 inspected some of his skincare products. They smelled nice as usual but different from the ones he used to use. I was really tempted to try some of them. He always picked the best skincare products. But I was stopped by the morbid imagination of him catching a whiff of one of them on me.
I didn’t think I could live through that embarrassment.
Dressed up in my night wear, I jumped into bed, exhausted from all the enthusiasm I had to keep up during dinner to wave off the incessant questions about the incident at the challenge.
Just as I closed my eyes, I heard a knock on the door.
I sat up with a frown. The knock came again.
“Ana, it’s Aiden.”
“Come in,” I piped up. When he entered, he glanced at the door.
“You didn’t lock the door?”
I shrugged, “Do I need to? It’s your room, you should be able to come in anytime.”
“Sorry. I just forgot something.” he explained with an apologetic smile as he moved toward the drawer and fished something from it.
All the while, he looked in a hurry and I couldn’t help but feel bad. It was so unfair. I was occupying his room and still making him uncomfortable.
“You can come sleep here,” I said, hoping to ease him up a bit.
He looked over at me and I could feel the tension in the air as he stared at the space beside me. Or on either side of me, because I was centred in the middle of the bed.
I blinked, realizing that he might have misunderstood my request.
“…I don’t mean here,” I flattened my palm on either side of me. “There,” I pointed to the only couch in the room few feet from the bed.
“It’s okay,” he smiled and shook my head.
“No, please, I wonder how that room is. Since it’s a spare room, a dark one at that, it’s probably not been

cleaned in a while. It’s not healthy to stay in a dusty room.”
Then with that, I laid back down and covered myseelf with the blanket from head to toes.
My eyes widened under the darkness of the blanket. Okay, what did I just do?! Why did I do that?!
