Ginny Green, an aromantic nerd, accidentally slept with the infamous campus Princess, Persephone Campbell, but she can't remember. ** Ginny Green is an aromantic nerd who only believes that love only exists in movies and novels, but still wishes to find that special someone even though she's thinking that it's impossible. After she got drunk at a party, she found herself tangled in bed with the infamous campus Princess, Persephone Campbell. Persephone Campbell is an extremely attractive, charismatic, misjudged individual due to her wealthy background. Deemed by the people as coldhearted and a snob, but she's totally the opposite. She fell in love with Ginny after their faithful night together and would love to start a relationship with her. But there is a problem, Ginny is aromantic and doesn't want to be in a relationship with anyone. Now, Persephone is on a mission to make the aromantic nerd fall in love with her. ** "You're not going to run away and walk out of this room and pretend that this didn't happen, are you?" In every accidental one-night stand, of course, that thought is not an option anymore. Embrace each other at night like long-time lovers, and in the morning, shrug off every memory like it never happened. That's always been the case. And of course, that was Ginny's initial plan after assessing the situation. But looking at Persephone's threatening, yet smiling face, she knows well how screwed up she was. Let's just laugh first. "N-no, I wasn't thinking of that at all." "Good." Persephone smiled, satisfied with her answer. She gingerly moves closer to Ginny, wrapping both of her arms around her waist. Ginny can't seem to utter a single word. Seeing a naked Persephone in front of her was... was... was - she doesn't even have any words to describe it. ** This story is slowburn that contains fluff and will contain some mature scenes soon.
"I didn't agree with this."
Was Ginny's first statement to Persephone after three days of avoiding her throughout the campus. Persephone was in the middle of the hallway, stuffing some things into her locker.
"What do you mean?" She faced Ginny, looking oblivious but with a trace of mischievousness on her gorgeous face.
Ginny believed that Persephone's beauty had the power to make people speechless. Not to sound dramatic, but it is without a doubt. But Ginny is not like anyone else. Persephone doesn't faze her.
"Just because something happened between us doesn't mean we need to date," she simply states matter of factly.
Persephone just stared at her, seemingly subtly judging her with gentle eyes, "That's quite new. I always deemed you to be the old-fashioned one, but I guess I'm wrong."
"What do you mean?"
"And isn't it obvious for two people who shagged one another to be responsible for one another?" Persephone said the words like it was the most obvious thing, "You snogged my face off, and you're saying you don't want to take responsibility?" Persephone matched her gaze, a hint of playfulness glimmering in her eyes.
Did I really kiss her? Ginny ponders, utterly shocked by the information, mentally slapping herself in between. She composes herself, subtly unfazed.
"It's just that — I can't seem to remember such a thing. And if it did ever happen, I apologise. I wasn't in the right state of mind."
Persephone was silent for a while, staring profoundly at her like a predator waiting to pound her prey.
"Ginny Green, are you perhaps interested in someone right now?" She asked gradually.
Ginny ponders. She couldn't fathom why she asked such a random thing. Is this some kind of trickery? She thinks yet again, carefully analysing her opponent.
"No. I don't — fancy anyone at the moment," she honestly replied. She matched Persephone's intense gaze, not breaking eye contact.
She doesn't want to pretend that she likes someone because lying can only lead to misunderstandings. What she wanted to express to Persephone was just simple, she doesn't want to be in a relationship, and she must respect that.
"Great. So am I."
Ginny was waiting to hear if she was going to say something rational (like breaking their recent predicament or announcing her as her girlfriend to everyone was an utter mistake). She urged her to say more.
"I'm not seeing anyone either, so we can go on a date," was Persephone's simple reply.
Bloody hell. Ginny silently mutters.
There was no sign that Persephone was backing down from her decision. She already said what needed to be said, but it seemed like Persephone acted like she didn't hear anything.
This is the highly edited version of the story. Expect that this will be different from before, and also expect that this will be updated starting from now.
Toodles!
