The Runaway Groom
Martin was staring at Lulu. “I’ll feed her.”
“No, it’s fine,” Lulu said, walking over to him and getting out of bed. “Give her to me.”
Martin pursed his lips and stared at her but Lulu kept her hands outstretched toward him without moving,
and both of them remained in that position for a while!
Zachary returned in a bad mood.
Irene did not ask him anything, while James was still bedridden.
The house was therefore gloomy, and only Erin would be moving around.
Since she had been learning to cook, she had to buy a lot of food ingredients.
Zachary was half-reclined on the couch when Erin left the kitchen with soup she just made, but he called
out to her just as she was about to bring it to James in his room. “Is James the only person living around
here?
There’s others here too, y’know?”
Erin shot him a look. “You’re nuts.”
Zachary chuckled. “Come on. I just wanted to try that soup you made.”
“There’s more in the kitchen,” Erin replied. “Get it yourself.”
“I want the one you’re holding,” Zachary said.
Erin ignored her and headed to James’s room, but Zachary rose to his feet and followed her.
Glaring at him, she asked, “What do you think you’re doing?”
“Just checking if you fattened up James,” Zachary said, keeping one hand in his pocket, while the other
reached for the doorknob. “Want me to open the door for you?”
Erin said nothing, but she was left wondering if the man forgot his meds.
“Well, you’re not saying anything, so I’ll consider your approval,” Zachary said and opened the door.
James was shirtless, as there were many interweaving cuts and bruises from being lashed.
He was trying to apply some ointment on it as well, but naturally could not reach his own back easily.
Zachary headed over and took the ointment. As a doctor, something like that could not be easier.
But just as he was doing it for James, James suddenly caught his wrist and murmured, “Erin…”
Both Erin and James were speechless.
James turned around then and saw that it was actually Zachary behind him.
He then looked down to see that he was holding Zachary’s hand and promptly flung it away as if it were
a cockroach!
“What are you doing here?!” James frowned.
Zachary glanced at his own hand and asked, “Was my hand that soft?”
“Get out!” James snapped, having every intention to be much harsher.
After all, only Erin ever came in, and he was surprised Zachary came in, and so quietly at that!
Erin would usually help him with applying ointment where he could not reach, and he thought it would be
her… only for it to turn out to be Zachary!
This was outrageous!
At the same time, Zachary blushed flirtily at James. “You always loved me, but you didn’t want to admit it,
did you?”
James was utterly speechless and would have kicked Zachary out if he did not have trouble getting up!
“Out!”
Zachary chuckled. “You’d never beat me in a fight right now.”
James glared at Zachary in turn-Zachary just came to mess with him, didn’t he?!
“Just you wait,” James huffed. “It’s a duel!”
Zachary knew that he would never win in a fair fight, so there was no way he would say yes. “Alright,
alright-l won’t bother you two flirting. That said, you’re still hurt…”
James’s expression turned very stern, while Zachary did not finish that sentence. “Take care of yourself.”
With that, Zachary turned towards Erin and smiled. “I’ll get the soup myself.”
She said nothing but closed the door after he left.
Then, she picked up a baggy shirt and helped James put it on. “Your friend’s a comedian.”
