100 Days to Seduce the Devil



Day Fifty-Eight…

~~*****~~

Since Nathan, Stephen, and Aiden were having their drinking session, they didn't join Jane's group during dinner. Jane, Abigail, Dave, Cherry, Tatsumi, and Ethan ate dinner together. Cherry felt relieved since Aiden was not around. She didn't know how she would interact with him after rejecting him and running away from him.

"Miss Jane, can I sleep in your cabin again tonight?" Ethan made another request. His father was bonding with his Uncles so he wanted to stay with Jane and Abigail tonight.

"Of course, you can," Jane responded, caressing his cheeks.

"Thank you!" Ethan's mood brightened up because of her. He decided to forget what he heard in Stephen's cabin a while ago.

Jane glanced at Cherry and she noticed that her friend didn't touch her food yet. It looked like she didn't have any appetite at all. Jane approached Cherry and whispered something to her.

"Come to our cabin later. We should talk. I feel like you are troubled by something."

"Okay, sis." Cherry agreed. Besides, she needed a piece of advice from her.

After dinner, Jane, Ethan, and Cherry proceeded to Jane's cabin while Dave and Abigail headed to the camping site first. They decided to spend more time together and watched the night sky.

Tatsumi, on the other hand, was summoned by Mr. Hiroshi through a phone call. He went to report an update regarding the trip.

Upon arriving at the cabin, Jane made sure to talk to Cherry. Ethan also stayed there to listen.

"What is bothering you?" Jane settled down on the couch together with Ethan and Cherry.

Cherry bit her lower lip. She didn't know how she would tell Jane about Aiden. She felt embarrassed.

"Come on. You can tell me everything. What is troubling you?" Jane urged her to speak up.

Jane and Ethan looked at her, waiting for Cherry to speak up.

"It's Aiden."

Ethan and Jane exchanged glances with one another when they heard his name. "What did he do to you?"

"Nothing. He confessed his feelings in the view deck. He asked me to be his girlfriend."

Jane: "..."

Ethan: "..."

"And I rejected him," Cherry added.

Jane pursed her lips, trying to hold her laughter. But Ethan's giggle bubbled up, making her laugh with him. 

Cherry looked at them with confusion. 'Eh, Why are they laughing?'

"I knew it. It will be hard for Aiden to catch your attention. He needs to work hard." Jane said as if she had already expected this to happen.

Ethan bobbed his head in agreement. "My Uncle sucks when wooing a woman for real."

Cherry blinked her eyes in disbelief. "Both of you knew?"

Jane and Ethan nodded their heads. "Isn't it obvious? He likes you. Only you didn't notice it."

Cherry frowned. "How did you know, sis? You only met him not long ago?"

'Oops. I forgot. I was in Abigail's body when I started noticing Aiden's crush on Cherry.'I think you should take a look at

Fortunately, Ethan butted in to save Jane. "Miss Cherry, even I can see that my Uncle Aiden likes you. Your sister Jane is very observant. She can easily tell by just observing him."

Cherry could only sigh in defeat. "Am I that harsh? I rejected him right away. I ran away in the middle of his confession, leaving him alone. I got nervous. I don't know I would handle the situation. The only thing that came to my mind was to run away."

Ethan held Cherry's hand and said, "Don't worry, Miss Cherry. Uncle Aiden can handle it. Besides, he just tasted his own medicine. This will make him a better man. Don't pity him nor feel guilty for him."

"Ethan is right. You just became true to yourself. You don't have to force yourself to like someone." Jane patted Cherry's back.

Cherry took another deep sigh. She could understand Ethan and Jane's words. But she didn't know why she was still bothered by what happened in the view deck. She couldn't explain it.

"Just act as if nothing happened. Just treat him as usual," Ethan added. "If Uncle Aiden truly likes you then he shouldn't bear a grudge against you. He should accept and respect your decision."

"Okay. I will do my best to act naturally in front of him," Cherry said, motivating herself.

"Good. You can sleep here tonight. We can have a movie marathon with Ethan and my sister." Jane invited her.

"Yey. I would love that, sis!" Cherry's mood brightened up.

Meanwhile, at the camping site, Dave and Abigail were still watching the night sky while sitting next to each other outside their tent. There were lots of stars tonight. 

"Why did you do it?" Dave asked Abigail.

"Did what?" She turned to him, giving him a questioning gaze.

Dave had to admit that he saw through her actions a while ago. The Abigail he knew acted strangely this afternoon. She never initiated once to make out with him in an outdoor place. They were not alone in that place so others might see them.

"Be honest with me, Abi. I just want to understand you." Dave sounded serious.

"Do I need a reason to kiss my boyfriend? I missed you so much."

"Did you intentionally do it so that Nathan would see us?" Dave saw a glimpse of Nathan's figure a while ago. He immediately stopped before they ended up removing all their clothes.

Abigail lowered her gaze. She was guilty. Dave had seen through her. "I'm sorry. I just want him to know that I love you. Not him."

Dave's eyebrow twitched in a frown. He was a little bit disappointed. "You don't have to hurt him like that, Abi. He is already hurting because you can't remember him. I know how it felt to be forgotten by the woman I love."

Abigail was at a loss for words. She didn't know how Dave suffered when she didn't remember him.

"I'm sorry. I have forgotten you because of my accident… I didn't mean to fall for someone. I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings… It's all my fault." Abigail apologized despite the fact she had no idea about the soul swap.

Abigail began to cry. Dave panicked. He didn't mean to blame her. It's just that he was sorry for Nathan and he empathized with him.

"No, don't cry. It's not your fault," Dave cupped her face, wiping her tears away. He caressed her cheeks as he tried to comfort her.

"My sister likes Nathan. I'm just trying to make him realize that he and I can't be together so that my Sister Jane can get a chance." Abigail revealed to Dave. She sniffed while holding her tears.

"Oh. I understand now. I'm sorry. Stop crying…" Dave softly mumbled. He leaned closer to her, his lips kissing away her tears. He softly kissed her eyes down her cheeks. And later on, he captured her lips, kissing her passionately.

His lips nibbled on her lower and upper lip, trying to coax her. Abigail just closed her eyes, savoring his kisses. She felt his tongue parting her lips and entered her mouth. He captured her tongue and began sucking it. His kiss awakened her desire. 

"I want you," Abigail mumbled in between the kiss, her hands clutching on his shirt.

"I want you too…" Dave whispered back sensually.
