H.U.R.T
Deal

"You're awake apparently?" Isabell took his canteen out of Austin's grasp as soon as they were outside the supermarket.

Austin frowned, looking at Isabell with a puzzled grimace. "Your question is a little strange."

"Huh?"

"We talked inside, I even bought a pad for you and you just asked me if I was awake. Do you think I'm walking while sleeping here?"

"Eh?!" Isabell suddenly misbehaved. He talks a lot when he's in a panic. In normal situations he is not a good conversational friend.

"We'll meet at home. I'll follow you from behind" Austin stood in front of the car. Tempted to leave his car there to be able to drive Darren's car. Austin had previously asked Darren to sell the car to him. Darren doesn't want to. His brother has been eyeing the car since its release.

"Give me the key, I'll drive," in the end he really couldn't resist the temptation of the car.

"We go home together? What about your car?"

"I'll have someone pick him up. I wonder what it's like."

"That feels?"

"Yes, what's it like riding it."

"Who are you riding?" Isabell was wrong.

Austin looked back at him strangely as if Isabell was an alien species stranded on earth.

"We're talking about cars. I'm curious."

"Oh, yeah. Lu-remarkable. He's very dashing, nimble, and agile."

"However?" Austin thinned his lips. The dashing word suddenly sounded ridiculous if Isabell said it. "Easy and agile. Ouh, I'm getting curious. Ride on."

"Wow! Looks like you just wasted state money," Austin licked as he looked at Isabell's groceries that almost filled the car.

"I wasted my brother's money. Harry's." Harry."

"Well, I don't know if Harry's a very kind and understanding brother" Austin removed a paper bag from the steering wheel so he could land his ass there. "What are you spending?"

"Something worthless" said Isabell without any intention of being funny. For him branded goods that he bought were indeed worthless because of course he would not wear them.

Austin chuckled, just this time he found a woman who wastes money on items that Isabell thought were useless and so-called useless items that Austin knew were expensive items that many women dream of out there.

"So why are you buying so many things?" Austin started driving at an average speed. He did not go straight to the way home. There were some things he had to talk about with Isabell.

"As you said, I was squandering Harry's money for free."

"Well, you have this side as well apparently." Austin laughed again to show his neat and white rows of teeth. Isabell was stunned to see how charming Austin would be if he were laughing.

"Ishabell,"

Isabell. This is the first time Austin has ever mentioned his name correctly. But that's not what made him go down. Except for the heavy, slightly hoarse and pitched sound. His name sounds so special. Or because someone special called it?

"Yes!" Isabell responded with vigor. Very excited to the point that Austin snorted in shock.

"Did you know that the family intends to match us?''

Isabell was again made to flinch. This time it was not from being amazed by the man's voice, but rather being surprised by the unexpected question. What should he answer now? Why Austin suddenly talked about this. Will Austin refuse?

"I don't think you know that." Isabell links his fingers. He was nervous, panicked, unprepared to accept the rejection from Austin.

"Ah, so you already know." Austin nodded. Silent. Austin focused on looking ahead, looking like that. But he was actually putting the word in his mind.

"What do you think?" Austin is back.

If asked his opinion, of course Isabell would not refuse. His dream is to be with Austin. He loved everything that was in that man. His loitering, his brutality, his whimpering, his cuckoo, his voice and Isabell also love to see Austin's hand on the steering wheel. Looks solid and convincing. He believes if he hangs there, Austin will not have the slightest trouble holding his weight.

"You're refusing?"

"Huh? No!! I can't resist!" again, he replied in an overzealous tone.

"You shook your head, I thought you refused. So you agree to this engagement?"

"I'm..."

Asked like this he really became confused as to what to answer. If he was frank, he was afraid that Austin would actually refuse the engagement. Their rigid relationship will become increasingly rigid. In addition he will get embarrassed at Austin's refusal.

"What about you?"

"I'm asking you. You have to answer it first before you throw me a question."

"I don't know" Isabell gave a safe answer. "As you said, I grew up in an environment full of rules. If Daddy wants me to get engaged, I have no choice but to refuse. I'm sure Daddy's choice is the best."

Oh, Daddy, I'm sorry. I'm sorry I made you an excuse.

Although the answer is not completely wrong, but tucked a little lie there. This is not about rules, nor about proving that he is a obedient and devoted child. Because his father is not a man who will impose his will. Before his father offered his engagement to the Willsons, he was asked if he would be engaged to Austin. And clearly he agreed.

"Attraction occurs if both parties agree. If you don't agree, this engagement won't happen" Isabell said. It sounds very wise and the real feeling is also disguised.

Don't refuse me, please! his deepest heart voice cried out.

"So far, marriage is not on my list. I like the freedom. What if we make a deal, Isabell?"

"Deal?"

"Yes. Deal."

___

"My car's out of the garage. I wonder which one of you two has stolen it."

Austin and Isabell, who had just entered the house, were greeted with accusations from Darren, who was sitting casually on the sofa. On top of his lap was a laptop that lit up, displaying numbers that only he could understand. His gaze focused there, not looking at Austin and Isabell at all.

"I wear it" I'm Isabell. Darren was still unmoved, not looking at all.

"I'm just taking the origin of the hanging car keys."

"Hmm, I haven't tried it yet and you've unsealed it." Finally he tilted to her, turning his gaze from the square screen towards Isabell.

"Pardon me. I really don't know. Austin said it a while ago. I-I'm going to get it back to where it was." Isabell snatched the car keys out of Austin's hands and gave the man his sanitary pad.

Austin did not receive the object correctly so it was scattered to the floor.

Puk!

"What's that?" Darren asked.

"Slayers. Did I never see him?" Austin bent down to pick the object up and Isabell did the same thing that caused their heads to clash. Austin and Isabell compact grimaced.

"Sorry," Isabell picked up the damn thing. Why did it have to be scattered in front of the two men and why he had to give it to Austin. It was not only Austin who looked at him strangely, but also Darren the stiff face.

"I'm gonna put your car in the garage."

"Reverting it back to the garage will not make it holy again. He's been contaminated. Let it go."

"Holy? Contaminated? I didn't stain him, really. You can check it out. I'm also driving below average speed."

"Oh yeah?" Darren finally looked.
