BXBX NOVEL 162 Chapter 162
"I\'m back," Theo said as he walked through the orphanage\'s door.
"Welcome home!"
He was greeted by Shina dressed in a white apron, making her look like a newlywed wife. Seeing this, he could not help letting his imagination run wild, especially after all that he had "seen" with his Divine Sense in the Ravena City Lord\'s Mansion.
"I\'m back." Theo responded by hugging her shortly after.
"Kya~!"
Shina shouted in surprise, but that didn\'t mean that she didn\'t like it. In fact, at that moment, her heart sped up, and her stomach was full of butterflies.
"W-Why did you do that so suddenly?" Shina asked and said, "Not that I\'m complaining, I\'m just curious."
"Hrm. You\'re just so cute, and I couldn\'t help but want to hug you." Theo smiled.
"Oh!" Shina exclaimed in surprise at that answer, she didn\'t expect him to say such a thing to her. His already red face turned even redder, becoming as red as a ripe tomato.
Theo smiled at her adorable reaction and then kissed her cheek. He then walked toward the living room, leaving Shina planted in front of the door, standing there both surprised and happy.
She didn\'t know what change it took to make Theo\'s behaviour become like this, but she liked it. She put her hands on her heated, feverish face as a silly smile formed. Humming, she returned to the kitchen to help Nanda prepare dinner.
Upon arriving in the living room, Theo noticed that there was no one else there. Well, he used his Divine Sense and soon discovered that they were all in the workshop, most likely cultivating. After going to the kitchen, he found Nanda there, making their dinner. The cheerful Shina was humming happily along while helping her.
"Theo?! Welcome back." Nanda said with a gentle smile.
"Mmm." Theo nodded and asked, "Can I help you with anything? Do you need any help?"
"Oh, it\'s fine, Shina is already helping me, and almost everything is ready," Nanda replied.
Theo scratched his cheek and said, "Okay, then. If you need anything, call me, I\'ll be waiting in the living room in the meantime."
"Alright." She smiled.
Still embarrassed, Shina stole a few glances in Theo\'s direction. She had no experience with the opposite sex, and Theo was the first one she ever got so close to, so she didn\'t know what to do in this situation. She just kept stealing glances at Theo as he went to the living room.
When Theo got there, he sat on the couch as he waited for the food to be ready. He decided to leave doing things with the Magic Cores he had acquired until after dinner, as he did not want to be interrupted during the process.
Not having much to do, he decided to open up his System and look through his current Status.

"Actually, I\'ve managed quite a bit of improvement, but my Points… sigh~ anyway, at least now I can increase my Points with the Magic Cores I got from Naiana and Kauana." Theo thought before he closed his Status.
"Can I sit next to you?"
"Huh?" Theo stared straight ahead, and Shina was staring right at him. She seemed to still be embarrassed that he had hugged her and kissed her cheek. "Sure, feel free to sit here beside me." Theo smiled at her.
Shina, though still a little embarrassed, summoned up her courage and sat next to Theo, almost shoulder to shoulder with him.
Though she couldn\'t hide her embarrassment, she was glad she could spend her time with him like that. Besides, she knew that she would have to get used to this kind of physical contact since they are boyfriend and girlfriend.
"S-Some of the food is ready." Shina said, trying to change the subject.
"Oh, right." Theo nodded and said, "You\'re really restless today, is it because of what I did just now?"
Shina was surprised and wanted to deny it, but she knew it was true that it was all because of that. She just didn\'t know how to act because it was all so new to her, so she took a deep breath and said, "I-I\'m fine, I\'m just not used to it… b-but I liked it." She used both hands to cover her blushing face.
"So cute." Theo smiled.
"C-Cute?" Shina got even more embarrassed and muttered, "I-I\'m not cute, don\'t tease me like that…!"
"Oh, but you are cute!" Theo smiled and added, "Do you want me to kiss you until you believe me?"
"W-What? Are you serious?" Shina looked at him in astonishment. She didn\'t expect him to say that.
"Of course, I am." Theo nodded and asked, "Don\'t you believe me?"
"I… I…" Shina grew even more restless and flushed, but she made up her mind, looked deeply into his golden eyes with her own beautiful blue eyes, and closed her eyes shortly after, waiting for his kiss.
Theo didn\'t think she would agree so readily, but he knew that now that she gave him permission, he shouldn\'t keep her waiting. He came over and put his right hand lightly on her rose-red face.
Shina\'s body trembled a little at his touch as if a flow of electricity had passed through all the veins of her body, causing her body to shudder involuntarily, but she bravely stayed with her head up and eyes closed, waiting for him.
Theo brought his lips closer to Shina\'s small pink lips, just a few inches apart, to the point where they could feel and hear each other\'s breathing. Shina\'s heartbeat started to get faster and faster with each passing second. She even swore that if it took a little longer, her heart might jump out of her chest since it was beating so fast.
"Shame on him, he must be listening to my heart beating so hard…" Shina thought and tried to calm her troubled heart but was unsuccessful.
And then, at the moment when their lips touched, Shina felt weak. She shivered a little again, soon realizing that she should open her mouth. She then gradually parted her lips while Theo pressed his against hers, making her feel something entirely new!
Before she even knew it, her mouth was already open, and her lips were touching his. Then, she was surprised when Theo brought his tongue into her mouth. She didn\'t feel disgusted by it, but she just didn\'t know what to do at that moment. She soon noticed that he was searching for her tongue.
She moved her tongue a little to meet his, and soon they began to intermingle tongues with each other, while Shina clumsily tried to keep up with the onslaught.
"Mmm~~."
A muffled moan escaped her mouth, making her even more embarrassed. But after realizing that Theo didn\'t mind it at all, she boldly continued to follow his lead.
Shina wrapped both arms around Theo\'s neck. She never expected a kiss to be so great and magical, she had often fantasized about kissing Theo, but now she realized how shallow her imagination was.
Theo also began to get more and more excited in their kiss. He wrapped his hand around Shina\'s waist, pulling her closer to him and made her sit sideways on his lap while they kept kissing. Shina was a little surprised by this, but it was not bad at all, so she leaned her chest up against his and kissed him passionately.
The longer they kept kissing, the less awkward it became. Shina began to feel her whole body getting hot. She could even swear that her secret spot got a little wet down there.
She was embarrassed when she thought that Theo would notice it, but then she sighed with relief after seeing that he continued to kiss her and said nothing.
They continued to kiss for about 20 minutes. Just after parting, they were panting raggedly.
"Wow!" She exclaimed in surprise as they finished kissing. She was even more surprised by the changes around her. It was like a fairy tale, full of beautiful flowers, trees, even butterfly-winged fairies flying around.
Theo was glad to see her this surprised by the scene. "I thought your first kiss should be \'magical,\' what did you think?" He smiled as he waited for her answer.
"It\'s so beautiful! I love it!" Shina exclaimed excitedly.
Theo laughed and said, "I\'m glad you liked it."
"Wow, I love you so much, you know that, right?!" Shina said, hugging Theo tightly with a beautiful smile on her lovely face.
"Of course, I love you too." Theo said, hugging her back.
Soon a doubt came to Shina\'s mind, she soon realized that they had been there for a pretty long time, but strangely no one came to call out to them. She would be so ashamed if anyone saw them like that.
"Why didn\'t anyone come calling for us?" She asked, adding, "I think dinner should have been ready by now."
Theo laughed, "No need to worry about that, I used my illusion ability to make them think we were having dinner with them."
He smiled lovingly. "It wouldn\'t be good if someone disturbed our first kiss, right?"
"Yes." Shina nodded and found herself wondering if she could love him even more? She was really very happy right now and could tell that this was probably the happiest day of her life or at least one of the happiest days she\'s ever had. She was really enjoying this moment with just her and Theo together like this.
Even more, with the illusions made by Theo, it made everything even more magical and fantastic. She felt that there was just the two of them in the entire world, and she didn\'t want it to end. Sure, she understood that soon, they would have to leave, but while she was still in this place, she genuinely wanted to make the most of it.
Without saying a word, she approached Theo\'s beautiful pink lips and kissed him. It was the first time she had taken the initiative to kiss him, but she did it! Despite being embarrassed by her actions, she was extremely happy right now. Shina knew that with Theo, she could let her guard down, and she knew that he would take care of her for the rest of her life, just as she would do the same for him.
Theo, despite being a little surprised by her onslaught, returned her kiss and ran his fingers through Shina\'s beautiful ocean blue hair.
