Isn’t the wannabe Villain too cute?

[Luna's POV:]

'I am nervous...'

The last time I felt nervous was when I first came to Austin's room after the Jungle expedition.

And that time too, when he came to meet me in Aurora.

And that too, when he kissed me...

And when he did this and that with me...

And when...

'Argh! Why am I getting nervous like this so often?!'

I facepalmed myself as I thought how I was getting highly strung by a single person in so little time.

Even though that single person is someone I adore, I think I am getting really sloppy these days, which I strangely don't feel much bad about.

Well, displaying my nervous self to the world would be unacceptable, but Austin would not mind this messy me who gets nervous just because of being invited on a date.

'Yeah, and maybe Austin would like this nervous side of mine…but he likes my domineering side too ...what if the perfect wifey aura disappears just because I won't be able to get myself together..'

I plopped down on the ground while thinking about the various possibilities.

It wasn't that I like to whine like this, but since I have fallen in love with Austin, I have become a woman who just couldn't control her emotions at all when it comes to the man I want to spend my life with.

'Will I end up ruining our first date like this...?'

A dark cloud emerged inside my mind as I slowly lifted my head and saw my face in the mirror I was sitting in front of.

My gaze fell at the place where still lingered the gel that Austin put on me. The sensation of his warm hand blended with the cool antiseptic made me warm from inside.

Before I could help, I was already missing him, so after exhaling deeply in determination, I got up from my place.

Walking toward my wardrobe, I resolved to make this date the best of our experience.

'Just wait for me, Austin. Your Luna will make this date memorable enough not to let you forget about it even in your sleep.'

______________ 

Despite promising and steeling her resolve for more than two hours, when Luna finally came to the place where she was meant to meet Austin, Luna became nervous again beyond belief.

The place where they decided to rendezvous was near the Library entrance around 4 in the noon. But Luna arrived at 2 and stood still with an invisibility shroud over herself to avoid unwanted gazes.

She wasn't sure why she was not nervous at this point when they already had sex, not once but twice now!

'Mm...what should I do...'

Sitting on a bench near the library backyard, Luna thought of the possibility that she might unintentionally do, which could ruin the date.

**Sigh** 

A long sigh left her lips as she drowned in her world, when suddenly a voice called out for her?

"Luna...you are here, right?"

She almost jumped to her feet when she heard a ridiculously familiar voice just beside her ear.

"Au-Austin? You can see me?!"

She subconsciously called for him, even though she found his eyes unfocused, signifying he really wasn't seeing her.

"No, I just caught your fragrance."

Luna didn't reply because she fell into a daze upon seeing Austin's current appearance.

He was wearing a long crimson coat that reached up to his upper thighs with a plain white shirt along with high waist black trousers. His hair, unlike usual, was combed neatly at one side with a slightly flushed face, signifying the healthy tone of skin that was affected by the sunlight.

The current Austin entirely mesmerized Luna. She loves the usual Austin, too, as he seems the most adorable person to her. But the present Austin looked more adult and charming.

"Luna? Are you there?"

As Austin sat on the bench, he asked with his gaze still, trying to perceive at least the silhouette of his date, but as expected of such a powerful mage. She doesn't leave any loopholes.

"W-why is Austin so early when we planned to meet at 4?"

Despite being in complete contemplation since she came here, Luna still had some sense of time left in her so she could prepare herself appropriately.

"Well, I believe it's rude to let a lady wait, so I arrived early. But what about you, Luna? Why are you sitting alone like this?"

Being asked so suddenly, Luna became flustered as she replied in a slight rush.

"I-I just wanted to take a summer bath."

Austin, even without seeing her face, was somehow sure that currently, Luna was blushing as her voice seemed to be forcing her false reasoning.

But he didn't point it out, since he knew it would make her angry.

Soon, silence fell between the two as the time passed.

For passersby, only a young, handsome boy was visible, who was sitting alone on the bench wordlessly. Some wanted to approach him, but something told those passers-by that approaching Austin would result in something ominous.

Austin, was the one who broke the silence in between as, while gawking toward his front, he muttered with a hazy voice.

"Are you nervous?"

If someone gets hit with something they were most concerned about, then getting flustered would be the least thing that could happen.

And Luna was the same...

"Hah! Me and nervous? Of course not. Why would I be?"

Luna crossed her arms under her bosom as she announced in a slightly shaky tone.

"Well, to be honest, I am really nervous right now. It's my first date, after all."

Luna's eyes went wide as she heard Austin's honest remark. In the chaos of her unsettling thoughts, she completely forgot about Austin.

"You know, choosing my clothes and thinking about what I should do to make this date perfect made me restless at the same time, so excited that I fought that urge to come here even earlier. Even though I am sitting with you right here, my heart is pounding like crazy to think that I am on a date with such a beautiful girl."

Luna, from start to end, was so flabbergasted that she even forgot to breathe. What she was feeling since morning was also felt by Austin, which made her delighted as well as idiotic, not to be honest with him.

Bringing her hand slowly on top of Austin's, she found him turning toward her before she undid her spell.

"To be honest with you, Austin, I am also at the edge right now. Just like you, I was also having trouble with what to wear or what to say. And right now, when I saw you looking so dashing, I felt my heart beating like crazy. So don't assume you are alone in this. I am equally nervous too."

As Austin saw Luna for the first time today, his sense of reasoning evaporated as with his mouth agape; he stared at her for quite a decent time when he finally realized his rude behavior.

Holding her hand back, Austin gave a bright smile before he muttered in a soft tone.

"Since we are feeling the same, then why not take things slowly and enjoy our date on our one way?"

Luna, upon hearing Austin's positive remark, smiled instantly as, with her eyes growing hazy, she nodded.

"Mm. Let's do that."
