Kill the Lights Chapter 20.2

Noah glanced at Mason, who was moving about with a blank look. Noah grinned lightly at his signature indifferent expression.

“You keep staring at Haley. -Do you like him that much?”

A female reporter, whose turn it was to interview, asked in a tone that said she was jealous. Noah bent his eyes and smiled at her.

“You are Reporter Sculley from Mild Type? The one who wrote a good article about me last time? Nice to see you again. Hm, what was the question again? Ah, do I like him that much-.”

He asked the female reporter, who was blus.h.i.+ng because of the fact that Noah recognized her.

“Right. It’s not easy to take my eyes off him. -I like it when he makes that expression.”

Noah stared at Mason again and the female reporter noted, “…It just looks like a sour expression,” as she stared at Haley too. If someone heard it, they would think he had a cute and lovely expression, but Haley was just listening to a producer’s explanation with an indifferent and sleepy face.

“Who knows? To my eyes, he looks-… a little bit in panic.”

The female reporter looked at Haley again after she heard Noah, but she seemed to have no clue. Noah had a bitter but sweet face.

What happened last night was out of Noah’s expectation. Though he himself had made it happen, it was not what he wanted. When he opened his eyes, there stood Mason and seeing that he was about to leave, Noah thought he should stop him.

Honestly, Noah didn’t desire Mason in a s.e.xual way. He had dreams of him ever since he was young, but he had never s.e.xually desired him. … ‘No. But did I really have not have it?’ Noah stared at Mason with a bit of a weird feeling.

To Noah, Mason was purely a desire. He always wanted to see him and touch him. He wanted to have him and wanted him to turn around and see him. He had never desired anything more or had wanted to do in the world, but Mason was the only one that sparkled.

He felt it every time he touched Mason. He realized it the moment he touched his skin that he was completely famished and didn’t even know he needed it. That the one whom he wanted to swallow was he.

It was the same Haley’s body that he never wanted to come in contact with, but when he thought he looked like him, when he thought he was Mason, his head got hot. He even thought of wanting to voraciously bite and swallow and consume him instantly.

The heat reached his head, and Noah wanted to hold Mason right away, ending up doing what happened yesterday…. Thanks to that, now everything was about to be over.

“Amidst the crew, they say Haley and Mr. Raycarlton aren’t dating, is that true?”

A reporter asked while checking his PDA. Noah answered lightly, “Ah, that’s true. Actually, because of that I wanted to avoid any sensitive questions.”

“I’m in a position of waiting for his reply.”

Noah smiled bitterly. Actually, he wasn’t about to wait for his answer. He was about to just grab him and announce in front of everyone that Mason was his, making it impossible for him to go anywhere. Everything was going well. -If it wasn’t for the small funny hope of wanting a piece of his heart.

Now the other party had the whole sword. Each of his word could kill him. Mason could even go far away, saying he didn’t want to see him at all. If he took Mason’s personality into consideration, he could very well say that they should live separately. Everything was about to end, but Noah wasn’t feeling that bad.

“Oh my gos.h.!.+ If it were me, I’ll shout, ‘

Yes!’ Um, so what kind of reply do you think will be given?”

‘What kind of an amazing answer do you think it will be?’ The reporter got mad saying, ‘how dare that Haley could make Noah wait’ and glanced at Haley. Noah just laughed a little–

“Who knows? Perhaps-…, it is a gentle rejection?”

Noah looked at Mason, who was glancing at towards him, with sweet eyes. The situation was over, but this kind of a thing was still good. Those panicked eyes and expressions were purely his. He made that happen by shaking him up.

I was afraid of the moment when he would leave me, even though I begged and begged such that I couldn’t even beg anymore. But now that it got to this point, no matter what happens, at least this moment will remain sweet. I was happy that Mason was thinking about me and was panicked and confused. The thought of Mason’s head being consumed by him at that moment made Noah excited.

As a result, even if everything ended with a gentle and a warm rejection, may it be so.

“What do you mean a rejection, are you being modest? Isn’t it a fact that Haley likes you? He’s staying at your house right now, what do you mean a rejection!”

‘How can you say that?’ All the reporters were talking, and Noah politely smiled at them. ‘Well, he had abandoned me twice already’, Noah thought, ‘this time isn’t any different.’

After everything ends, wouldn’t it be better to just commit suicide? If he just had a little bit of pity that will be fine too. Noah thought gloomily and looked at Mason again.

He was practicing a little bit of physical contact with an actress.

“Ah, I heard today they are going to film a kiss scene-…”

A reporter slurred his word and asked after seeing Noah’s expression.

“A kiss scene for a person you like. Since you are the sponsor, can’t you just tell them to take it out of the movie?”

Noah moved his eyes slightly and looked at the reporter who asked the question. “We are going to start! Please be quiet!” Gloria shouted, and Noah looked at Mason again.

With the queue sign from Vick, Mason acted like he became another person.

He said scary lines and pointed his gun at a person with a stony expression. The reporters, who were talking loudly about Haley, little by little started to shut up their mouths as if hypnotized and stared at him moving.

Haley was faster and shaper than what everyone thought about him. It was not the same person who was always sluggish because of drugs and alcohol abuse and the one who acted s.l.u.tty. ‘Sharp moves and expression.’ He looked coldhearted like a scary agent who worked for a brutal and secretive group.

“…-He, he looks like a different person.”

Someone murmured, who had apparently heard about Haley’s newly improved acting skills but didn’t realize it was to such an extent. ‘Black hair and eyes, and a pale face.’ He was completely different from the Haley they knew.

“A different person-…”

Noah mumbled what the reporter had said and laughed lowly. Just like he said, he was acting like a completely different person, but to Noah’s eyes, he looked like Mason without any question.

Haley held the actress’s cheek, as she sat on the ground and whispered something. She was s.h.i.+vering and soon tears started to fall. He wiped the tear with his thumb and looked startled for a moment.

“……”

He slightly lifted his head, and Noah stared into his black eyes.

He shortly clicked his tongue and pulled the actress’s long hair, causing her to extend the neck, before quickly connecting to her lips.

“…-,”

Noah chuckled. He could feel the conflict in Mason’s eyes. Well, with Mason’s personality, don’t know about the actress, but kissing with Noah would make him care too much.

Noah looked at the actress trembling as if she got electrocuted and mumbling, ‘Ahhhh.’ Sure enough, Vick called for a cut and said, “Let’s film only the kiss scene again! Lizzy, don’t react too much,” and the scene started. Mason held her cheek again and kissed her lips.

“….”

I shouldn’t have kissed with him. I shouldn’t have tried to bite, lick, and hold him. Noah wasn’t sure if he could completely give up on him now. If Mason gently rejects him, what if he goes crazy and rapes him and commits suicide? ‘His lips were very sweet.’ -Noah thought with a gentle expression and looked away.

“Um, Mr. Raycarlton?”

A big man wearing a blue jumper, who looked like he was waiting for Noah to look away, handed him a small note and said.

“A moment ago, one person asked me to give you this.”

‘Over there.’ That big man pointed towards the street corner, where there was a tree, with his eyes. ‘Is it a reporter?’ Noah opened the note indifferently.

“….-“

Noah, who saw the short note, lifted his head and stared at the tree.

[We have Alta’s safe.]

He couldn’t see the faces of those who sent him the note, but Noah definitely knew who they were.
