First Date with the Goddess

It was a hot summer day.

Beep, beep, beep…

The ear-piercing chirping of cicadas mixed with the honking of passing cars reverberated through the streets filled with pedestrians. The scorching sun roasted the grayish-brown asphalt, and heat waves kept rising. The entire road seemed to distort.

"Aiden, it's not that I want to criticize you, but how can you ask a girl out for a picnic on such a hot day?" On the road, a young girl on a bicycle complained to the boy beside her. Dressed in a light blue dress, her smooth golden hair fluttered in the wind, revealing her slender neck like a swan. Under the sunlight, it emitted a dazzling luster.

"Hehe, it won't be so hot when we reach the wetland park later. Hang in there for a while." Beside the girl, Aiden Thomas, also riding a bicycle, smiled awkwardly and apologized profusely.

"Hmph, it better be." The young girl snorted and pouted. Her adorable appearance stunned Aiden, and his heartbeat quickened.

The girl's name was Lily Avril. She was the publicly acknowledged goddess of Lefa University, where Aiden was from. Not only was her face beautiful, but her figure was also enviable. As a member of the school's sprint club who constantly exercised, the muscles in her legs were tight and well-proportioned. There was not a trace of fat on her waist and abdomen. Every time she ran a sprint competition, she was the most beautiful thing on the field, and also the dream lover of many boys.

Aiden was no exception. To have more opportunities to meet his goddess, he even signed up for a fitness club to get to meet her more often.

Three days ago, under the influence of a few bad friends, he called Lily to confess to her. Aiden could not remember what he said that night. He only remembered that in class the next day, Lily in a white dress had a sweet smile on her face. She was like an angel as she held his arm under everyone's envious gaze.

At that moment, his heart was shaking like a comet hitting the earth. He spent the whole day smiling foolishly. Although he was handsome, compared to Lily and her pursuers, he was not outstanding.

As a result, when those bad friends found out that the two of them were together, they all complained that they had suffered a loss. They originally wanted to play tricks on him, but did not expect Aiden to win over the goddess. They were so regretful that they wanted to bang their heads against the wall, but there was nothing they could do. The matter was already set in stone. No matter how unwilling they were, they could only give their blessings.

Of course, all of this was not important to Aiden. What was important was that after dating for a week, the goddess finally agreed to accompany him for a picnic this weekend. This was the first time the two had gone out on a date alone, so Aiden naturally had to prepare well. Without even eating breakfast, he took his pocket money and ran out early in the morning. 

The picnic was to be in Wetland Park, a famous couple's park in Baeklander City. It was located in the northern suburbs of Baeklander, and many couples liked to go there on dates. However, Aiden didn't consider that the weather today wasn't suitable for cycling. Once they left the city with its tall buildings, the sun shone directly on their heads as if it wanted to roast them.

"How much longer?" Lily wailed after another moment. She dropped her bicycle, went straight behind Aiden, and slid into his backseat.

"I can't ride anymore. Give me a ride."

Her coquettish tone coupled with the faint fragrance from her body when she approached. Aiden didn't hesitate at all and immediately nodded in agreement.

"Okay, then sit tight."

Lily beamed with joy. Her big eyes narrowed into crescents as she agreed happily. She naturally wrapped her arms around Aiden's waist and rested her head gently on his back.

Aiden's body trembled imperceptibly. The soft touch on his back made his mouth go dry and he could barely concentrate. He swallowed and took a deep breath. He kept repeating in his heart, "Calm down, Aiden. You have to calm down. This is your girlfriend. These actions are natural. It's not worth getting excited about. It's not worth…"

Lily did not seem to notice his abnormality. Seeing that he did not move, she urged, "It's so hot. Let's go."

After saying that, he tightened his grip around Aiden's waist and pressed her entire body against his back. The astonishing softness of his chest kept rubbing against Aiden's back.

Hiss!

Aiden took a deep breath and almost lost his grip on the handle. To prevent the goddess from noticing anything amiss, he quickly collected his thoughts and rode his bicycle toward the park.

Along the way, Aiden cycled very slowly. Feeling the touch on his back and waist, his thoughts kept drifting away.

"The goddess is hugging me, the goddess is hugging me!"

There seemed to be a voice shouting loudly in his heart. Aiden felt as if his entire body was filled with energy, and he pedaled even harder.

After more than ten minutes, the two finally arrived at their destination, Wetland Park. Just as Lily had complained earlier, because the weather was too hot, there was almost no one in the park. There were only two or three couples, sitting under some big trees. They looked like couples who had come here for a date.

"We're finally here."

Lily jumped off the back seat and stretched. Aiden was relieved. The journey had been a different kind of "torture" for him. His beloved goddess was sitting in the back seat. Although it was against the wind, the faint fragrance kept drilling into his nose. Coupled with their bodies pressed together, it was difficult for him to be calm.

"Let's go first…" Just as he was about to find a place to park, he accidentally saw Lily stretching. Her curvaceous figure made Aiden's eyes widen as he stared blankly at Lily's chest.

The latter also noticed his abnormality and her pretty face turned pink. She rolled her eyes at him and said coquettishly, "Why are you in a daze? Go find a cool place to rest first."

"Oh, oh." Aiden came back to his senses and looked away in a panic. He locked the bicycle and brought the food and water he had prepared. The two of them went under a big tree.

"Let's do it here." Aiden took out a picnic mat and was about to lay it on the ground when a man and a woman came from behind. They also looked like a couple and sat not far from them.

Aiden frowned. To be honest, he didn't want outsiders to disturb his and his goddess' private time.

"Why don't we go somewhere else?" He started to put away the cushions, but Lily wasn't happy. She pouted and said reluctantly, "But I've already arranged everything. I don't want to clean up again."

"This… Alright, here it is then."

Seeing her aggrieved look, Aiden could only give up and lay down the picnic mat. Then the two of them lay down together and enjoyed the breeze and the food they had prepared. They were very comfortable, and the awkwardness from before seemed to dissipate with the breeze.

But the happy time didn't last long. Just as Aiden was wondering how to further develop his relationship with the goddess, a strange sound caught his attention.

When he turned around, it turned out that the couple from before had already hugged and kissed passionately, completely ignoring the two spectators not far away. The man's hand had even reached into the woman's clothes. Not only that but because his actions were rough, Aiden even saw the woman's proud breasts. He was dumbfounded at the sight.
