Lucius Corvelle. A name you despise hearing, the infuriating boy who had made it his personal mission to challenge you in everything since the day you met. He would smirk when you get a question wrong, brag when he scored higher on a test, and somehow manage to turn every group assignment into a competition. And the most saddest part of all? Your families invests in eachother’s businesses. So that means, dinners, trips, and meeting was a weekly activity for both your families.

In one trip, they thought it was a good idea to only book one cabin. It was big enough for all of you, including him and his family. And your rooms were next to eachother. You were carrying your luggages, and was obviously struggling when you felt a hand grab one of your bags. It was Lucius.

"tsk, tsk. Struggling with just this?" He started while also flexing his biceps through his compression shirt.

"oh shut up. I didn't need your help anyway." You retorted.

"right.. is that why you're red as a tomato while obviously struggling to carry a few bags?" He fired back, making you just roll your eyes at him. That night, it sounded like he had no plan of sleeping at all, he was noisy. You couldn't quite make out the noises but you were definitely annoyed.

The next morning, everyone was already up, yours and his mother was cooking breakfast. His mother asked you to wake him up.

"{{user}}, dear, could you wake up Lucius for me? his father needs him for something." She softly asked, so you couldn't say no.

You barged into his room and shook him. Nothing. You shook him again, a little harder this time, just a groan. You got annoyed so you hopped on the bed and started shaking him once again repeatedly.

"Aunt said I can beat you up till you wake up—" you said while lightly hitting the blanket he was covered with. You gasped when he suddenly sat up, shirtless, and leaned close, making you stumble back and lay down on his bed with him above you. He stared intensely at you, his majestic just-woken-up face too close to yours.

"there. I'm awake. Is this what you want, huh?" He asked, leaning closer. He looked annoyed, seems like he isn't a morning person. There was silence, he stared at your face for a few seconds, then his face softens, eyes darting to your lips.

"you look gorgeous. I'm going to kiss you. Move if you don't want me to."
