Forbidden Heat

Reiner - Just Like This

“Natalia…look this way,” Reiner said sternly.

Curiously, I turned around to see what he wanted. Water splashed onto my face and the front of my

shirt so fast that I didn’t have time to react. I silently thanked whoever invented waterproof eyeliner andnovelbin

mascara as I closed my eyes and felt the water run down my face.

“Reiner!” I yelled his name as I reached down into the stream and began splashing more water his way.

“What do they like to say? Something like…you started it?” Reiner said while laughing a little at me.

The water felt so much colder on my face and body than it did when I touched it with my hand in the

stream. The wind blowing against my face just made the water feel that much colder. I burst out

laughing at the situation that we found ourselves in. Splashing water one each other like we were

carefree children. It was so fun, and I felt so free just to be playing around with Reiner like this.

I couldn’t remember the last time that I laughed this hard. Even if it was only for a moment, I was glad

that my burdens seemed to have lifted. Reiner’s joyful laugh filled my ears, and I could feel my

heartache for him.

“R…” I called his name as I ran towards him and flung my arms around his neck.

He’s so tall I had to literally jump up on him to hug him like this. As expected, Reiner large hands held

my waist and carried me up so that I could reach. I kissed the side of his neck softly as I wrapped my

legs around his hips. The wind on my wet skin and clothes felt so cold but Reiner’s body made me feel

so warm.

“Your shirt is all see through now…” Reiner said with concern.

“You’re such a pervert…” I teased.

“Says the girl who’s pressing her breasts to my chest…” he teased me back.

I looked up into his handsome face and beautiful blue eyes before I started laughing like I was going

crazy. If only time would go on just like this, everyday would be so fun for the two of us.

“You’re so funny…” I whispered.

Pulling his head down towards me, I placed my lips softly on his. I kissed him softly and his hands

tightened around my waist. Letting out a sigh of satisfaction, I continued to kiss him as our kiss

deepened. I parted my lips invitingly and Reiner slipped his hot tongue into the depths of my mouth.

Oh…how I’ve been waiting for this…

The forest was peacefully quiet around us now that we had stopped laughing and playing around with

water. The atmosphere was so tranquil and thankfully, we were alone. As we kissed and his tongue

grinded along with mine, it truly felt like we were the only ones in our little world. How I wished that this

could be true.

“You should change before you catch a cold,” Reiner said after he broke our kiss.

“You’re always so worried about everything…” I replied but I couldn’t help smiling at him.

He put me back down on the ground before he turned to take out some clothes from the bag that he

had packed. It was amazing how prepared he was about everything. I started taking my wet shirt off

and realized that my bra is wet as well. Having a bra-free day wouldn’t be too bad once in a while. I

shrugged carefreely as I also took off my bra.

I glanced over at Reiner and saw that he had his back turned towards me. One of these days, I’m going

to come to understand his thought process. I didn’t understand why he had to turn his back when he’d

already seen me naked plenty of times.

“I’m done…” I said when I had finished changing.

Reiner was wet too. I wondered if he was going to change as well.

“R…you’re wet. Are you going to change too?” I asked.

“No. I’m fine. Let’s have lunch,” Reine replied.

I watched as Reiner placed a mat on the ground and started unpacking many lunch boxes. While I

stood awkwardly to the side, Reiner arranged everything professionally.

“Is there something that I can help out with?” I asked, not wanting to feel completely useless.

“No. Just…stand to the side…” Reiner said as he continued setting up everything.

When the food was laid out on the mat in front of me, I looked in wonder at the amount and variety of

food that was packed.

“Did you make this?” I asked in awe.

“No. The cooks did…” Reine replied.

His response made me feel better somehow. I mean, it would really be too over the top if he had

cooked all this as well. Being too amazing can be too much for my heart to take. Unknowingly, I had

started smiling a little to myself.

“What are you waiting for? Let’s eat,” Reiner said as he sat down and gestured for me to do the same.

I sat down and we began eating in silence. Since I had changed clothes, the wind didn’t feel so cold

anymore and the weather seemed pleasant. The food tasted amazing. I was sure that the food tasted

decent because the cooks cooked it, but it tasted outstandingly delicious right now because I was in a

great mood. Also, because I was eating it with Reiner.

“What are we doing after this?” I asked.

“Nothing. Today is your rest day so just rest and take it easy. The real thing starts tomorrow,” Reiner

replied casually.

“The real thing?” I asked, catching on to what he just said.

“I figured now that you’re here…I might as well teach you some things…” Reiner said a little hesitantly.

I wondered what it was what he was going to teach me. As long as I get to spend time with him, I guess

anything would be fine.

“Guess I’ll have to wait and see, right?” I asked, knowingly.

Reiner just smiled and nodded in response.

Just as Reiner suggested, I spent the rest of the afternoon doing absolutely nothing at all. We walked

around together in the forest while we enjoyed the scenery. We sat down when we needed to rest and

chatted. He read me a book while I used his lap as my pillow and drift off for a short nap.
