Two Gals and One Guy = Tease

"Yes!! My ship has finally sailed!" Selina clapped her hands together like a child watching her favorite cartoon. Ever since Celinda shared her feelings about Bryan to her, she's been waiting for them to become a couple.

Currently, Aaron was sitting leisurely with a slice of orange in his hands while listening to the girl's talk. Celinda had just finished describing how she and Bryan became a couple. Immediately after their cheers settled, Aaron asked. "You two wouldn't sneak to my room at three in the morning just to share how Celinda became Bryan's girlfriend, right? Come on. What is it?"

He rests his chin in his palm as his eyes scanned the girl's expressions.

Selina's smile broadened at his inquiry because she was about to explain her intentions for sneaking out of her room. "Aaron, you've been working with Jason for a while now, right?" Her long eyelashes fluttered like a butterfly's baby step in flapping its wings.

"Yes. I worked with him for around five years." Aaron revealed a lopsided smile as he had plentiful ideas of what she was trying to ask.

"And Celinda has been his younger sister since birth. So~ I was wondering if you two could give me some hints on what he dislikes or is afraid of." Selina let out a chuckle as she recalled how Jason had frightened her about the graveyard many years ago. Till today, she still can't walk pass a graveyard alone.

"That's easy. You." Celinda and Aaron replied in unison and gave each other a high five.

Pointing to herself, Selina turned her head sideways multiple times. "Me? Since when was he ever scared of me?" She remembered the failed attempt from last time when she had tried jumping onto him from behind. He ended up catching her wrists above her head and punishing her lips in his room.

Aaron swallowed a mouthful of water before nodding to her inquiry. "Yeah. You make his heart sky dive without the safety equipment. He is afraid of losing you and dislikes when people around you take your attention away from him."

"Huh? How come I never noticed that? He always smiles around me." Selina scratched her head cluelessly.

"Pffft, my brother would never let us off if he knows what we're telling you. He's been looking for you ever since he was capable of handling documents and contracts for our family business. My parents tried introducing many ladies to him but they were all turned down. He didn't even show up to the dinners."

Celinda spread her ten fingers apart and wiggled them in the air to indicate the countless times Jason rejected girls in the past.

"Oh? Even though he found me after many years later, I still can't let him get away easily for scaring me with that scary graveyard story! Hehe. Does anyone have an idea that I could use?" She rubbed her chin mischievously as she thought of giving Jason a scare.

"I do have one trick and it worked like a charm on Michael. Actually, I use it when Michael gets mad at me. If we have small arguments and I run out of words to say, I stay quiet and look away from him. Oh, of course, you'll also have to pick out some words he said and reply with a comeback to make this idea work. At the very least, this idea should make him feel anxious." Aaron raised his eyebrows three times as he looked at them with an amused smile.

'Heh. This is my low-key way of avenging for my overtime works! Boss~' He laughed wickedly in his mind as he taught Selina extra tips on tricking Jason during different occasions. Meanwhile, Celinda took notes on the side as if she was in the middle of a very interesting lesson.

"Oh! By the way!" Selina grinned.

"Michael might look very reliable and independent, but he also has some weaknesses! He can't cook and would use any reasons to not enter the kitchen unless it is for drinks. And he really likes giving people makeovers. Hehe~ This is just some tips to keep the heat everywhere in your home." Selina elbowed him and tapped the area on her porcelain skin.

Seeing her gesture, he immediately cleared his throat. "Ahem, those annoying mosquitoes sure knows where to bite."

Nodding along, the girls giggled. "Uh huh! The mosquito sure knows where to leave its mark."

As their teasing intensified, Aaron changed the discussion to Bryan. "Ah, right. Since we've already spoken about Jason and Michael, we should talk about Bryan too. You two just started dating, but I'm sure Selina would have some things to tell you."

"Ah! I actually do! Don't look at Bryan and think he is all buff. He might sound strict in words, but he is easier to coax than a five-year-old who wants a new laptop. If he ever gets mad, all you need to do is buy him a lot of panda chocolate cookies. Oh, he also has a sweet tooth. Of course, the sweetest is you after all. If you two get..."

Selina's purposely let her voice trail off and lean forward towards Celinda with pursed lips. Sticking the tip of her tongue out, Selina licked the corner of her bottom lip. Though it was a small action, Aaron caught the meaning behind it.

"You two are definitely siblings. No doubt." Aaron mumbled, interrupting Selina's words.

Turning around, Selina's excited gaze met his. "What did you just say? Future brother-in-law, does this mean you and my big brother did something with sweets before? You know, like the you take a bite and then he takes a bite kind of thing? Or~ Maybe even better.."

Aaron cupped his reddened cheeks shyly. "I have no idea what you're talking about. Hahahaha. What whip cream? What chocolate fountain? What baking a cake?"

"Heh. When have I ever mentioned any of those whip cream, chocolate fountain and culinary skills? Oh~~ See? We should learn from them. More excitement!" Selina almost squealed as she tugged Aaron's sleeve.

Meanwhile, Celinda was wondering how the world become so complicated. Before entering this room, her mind was pure. At least before, she would think of whip cream as its literal meaning. Now, her mind is filled with naughty thoughts!

Listening closely to Selina's advice and Aaron's experience, Celinda felt like she has a lot to learn. 'Where do they get all these ideas from???' She wondered silently as she continued jotting down notes.

After sharing various thoughts and ideas in teasing their partners, the girls snuck back to their room without anyone noticing.

Upon entering her room, Selina revealed a playful smirk. With dimples on both cheeks, she bit her bottom lip. "Hehe~ I've got a great idea. Hehe~ Darling, teasing you will become my forte soon. Who says I have to scare you? Hehe. Making your heart dance the tango is more exciting."

Aaron's words repeated her mind as she climbed back to bed and fell into slumber.
