They could totally be at ease here and enjoy their love. Shirley released her inner child and acted like her true self for once. The trip came to an end on the third day. They returned to town and took an evening flight back to their home country.
Shirley and Zacharias had confirmed their relationship on the way home. Even though Shirley was still Zachariasâ intern bodyguard, she was treated like his wife in his residence. When Zachariasâ car came to Flintstone Residence, Royâs men opened the door for him. Sheepishly, Shirley said, âI can do this myself.â
The bodyguards stood beside her, protecting her out of habit. Shirley felt at ease after returning to the Flintstone Residence. Later that night, Roy handed a sealed item to Zacharias.
Shirley was coming downstairs. Seeing that, she curiously asked, âWhatâs that youâre holding?â
Zacharias quickly hid the item behind him, looking nervous. Shirley had strong observation skills. Even though Zacharias tried his best to act natural, she saw through his stiffness. âI canât see it?â Shirley crossed her arms.
âYou wonât be interested in this,â said Zacharias, and he tried to leave. Suddenly, Shirley darted ahead and took the item away. Smugly, she said, âSomeoneâs suspicious.â
Since Shirley had taken the item away, Zacharias felt like laughing, but he held it back. âIf youâre that interested, you can open up and check what it is.â
Hm, heâs giving me permission. She opened up the package, and ten boxes of a certain item fell to the ground. Shirley felt petrified seeing the boxes of condoms, and her face turned red. âW-Why did you get so many condoms?â Shirley was feeling dizzy.
Zacharias went down and picked the condoms up. âI couldnât possibly buy these myself, so I told Roy to get me a ton of it.â
Oh, right. Most people can just go into a convenience store and get a box of it if they need to have some sexy time, but if this guy goes into a convenience store to get a box of condoms, heâs going to make it to the headlines. That means Iâll be on the headline too. âYou can ask me to get it next time.â
Shirley was still blushing. Royâs going to be embarrassed buying this stuff after all.
âWill you do it?â Zacharias smiled.
âOf course. I need this too, so why canât I buy it?â Shirley realized she could be more open about bedroom matters now. That night, Shirley took a shower in the guest room. Zacharias was still working, so Shirley didnât disturb him.
Instead, she waited for him in her room.
Zacharias went into the master bedroom at eleven. When he realized it was empty, he was surprised.
Sheâs too scared to sleep with me again? Zacharias picked up his pajamas and went to the guest room on the second floor. He opened up Shirleyâs room and went inside, holding his pajamas. âYouâre sleeping here tonight?â
Shirley liked her own room, and she nodded. âYes. Iâm sleeping here tonight.â
Spring was coming soon, but the weather was getting colder. Shirley thought it was a blessing she could sleep in a warm embrace. Zacharias went for a shower while Shirley lay on the bed, watching some news.
Zacharias came out with nothing but a towel on. He didnât wear his pajamas. Shirley rested her chin on her hand and joked, âYou look the hottest when youâre not wearing anything.â
Zacharias narrowed his eyes and turned off the lights, plunging the room into darkness. Shirley heard something getting tossed onto the couch. She felt the blanket flying in the air for a moment, and then Zacharias got into the bed.
