Castian's POV:

"Yes Master, Young Master is managing the company well...Nope, no troubles at all...Yes, will do Master, you can count on me...Take care." Ending the monthly report, I let out a deep breath of relief before walking back to the table where Xander and Celine sat. Celine was busy talking to him while Xander was just... making peace? In another term, plainly ignoring her. "So where were we?"

"Ideas for Xander to hook the Boss up?" Celine reminded, leading my thoughts back on track. Xander had ringed me up for advice and Celine happened to hear him on the phone and wanted to tag along so we ended up meeting one another on a Saturday afternoon. "So I'm suggesting that you bring the Boss on a hike in a forest in the night so when he freaks out, you can dash in like his hero and save him from his fears! Even better, he freaks out and clings against you!" Celine suggested eagerly, her eyes sparkling as she waited with anticipation for our comments. Cute...

"And how am I going to save him?" Xander stared at her in boredom, not liking her suggestion at all. Well.. it wasn't half-bad at least... but Young Master wouldn't be pleased to go on hikes with all the mud and mosquitoes around. Xander will end up having to carry him the whole way.

"With a torchlight!" She smirked proudly, making Xander and I sweat-drop at her answer.

"A torchlight." Xander deadpanned, rolling his eyes before turning to look at me instead. In case you're wondering, Celine is sitting by my side while Xander is opposite of us.

"Hey! Don't look down on a torchlight. If it's hardy enough, it can act as a weapon to fight of any beasts. It's a weapon in disguise." Celine smacked him on the arm before tugging hardly, trying to make him listen to her ideas which he did not give in to.

Noticing Xander's stare, I finally suggested what has been on my mind. "Just ask him to marry you." Almost immediately, two loud thuds were heard and I realised that their heads had smacked against the table hard, one slipping from the hand, another giving in to gravity. Weirdos... "You have to be straightforward to a dense monkey like him or else he would not catch on on what you're trying to say. That's why he had never managed to hook up with anyone previously."

"So basically, I have to tell him straight as hints wouldn't work." Xander double confirmed with me as I nodded in reply.

"Exactly. As for hooking him up, indoor date suits him the most. He's more of a homey and comfort first person. Set the mood right and then go for the asshole. I believe in you." I flexed my arm in hopes of motivating the beast. You know, the good luck sign.

"He's bottom?" Xander asked more like a confirmation than a question.

"I can never imagine my Young Master topping... unless he's riding you." I grinned, sending a wink to his direction to which he shook his head in disbelief. What? Am I wrong?

"Okay, that's not the main point now-"

"Just do it, Xander. You're designed for driving pleasure." I cut him off quickly. My game isn't going to end just like that. As if on cue, a faint blush appeared on his cheeks as he coughed to cover up his embarrassment. Hey, with a body like his, no one can deny my words.

Celine stared at me for a moment or two before grinning widely. Good. She picked it up. "Yeah Xandy, Boss will definitely melt in your mouth, not only in your hands." She purred, sending a cold shiver down Xander's spine as he stared at her with the don't-you-dare-continue look.

"And he'll be lovin it." We wriggled our brows at him suggestively, making him groan.

"Guys, stop-"

"Do you see what we mean?" Celine cut him off quickly, nudging me softly to back her up before Xander says another word.

"With the beauty outside and the beast inside, you'll find yourselves in the happiest place on earth." Man, I'm a genius. Praise me people.

"Remember Xandy, pleasure is the path to joy." She said with a straight-face. I swear I almost burst out laughing if I wasn't holding myself back.

"Okay, seriously just stop. We're going way off tracked." He finally snapped but not without looking embarrassed. Man, my goddess and I make a great team. Opening my hand under the table, Celine hi-fived me with a full-blown smile on her face. Seems like I wasn't the only one enjoying my time. "Thank you."

"Ok ok. Hmm... how about setting up a romantic candle-light dinner for the both of you and then have a movie marathon till the next morning. You know, the cliche stuffs." Celine sighed dreamily at her own suggestion as Xander thought about it. To be honest, it didn't sound that bad at all.

"But I can't cook." Xander voiced out honestly, earning a loud sigh from Celine.

"Take-out?"

"How can that be romantic?" Hmmm...

"I'll teach you his favourites then." I eventually suggested. Xander turned to me with gratefulness in his eyes as we started to brainstorm on what dishes are simple yet will not spoil the romantic mood.

After making all the arrangements, Xander swiftly said his thanks and bid his goodbyes before rushing back home to take over his nanny, not wanting to waste any more precious time which he can spend bonding with his son.

"Then I'll get going to-" She announced before grabbing her clutch.

"Celine." I quickly called out, placing my hand over hers to prevent her from leaving.

"Yes?" Okay Castian, think. Should you ask her for a date or just a casual hang out. Which will not freak her out or scare her away.

"Want to go to the ice cream place nearby? I hear they sell unique and awesome flavours with different bases like waffle or cereal."

"Are you asking me out on a date?"

"Only if you want it to be." i shrugged. Better than scaring her away.

"Sure. Let's go then. My treat." She agreed as we exit the building we were previously in. It was then I realised that she said that she was treating. How can I let her do that. I'm the one who's going to pay for her. I asked her out after all.

"Yes! Wait. What? No. I'm treating."

"No, I'm treating." She insisted, half-glaring at me from under her long lashes. Ooo. Hot...

"I can't let a woman pay for me-"

"Then think of me as a man or take it as thanks for the free lunches."

"But-"

"Say another word and you'll find ice-cream going up your ass." Kinky. I won't mind taking her up my ass if she asks for it. It's hot.

For people who did not get what Castian and Celine were playing around, they were playing with slogans. Some of which, I've changed a little so that it won't sound so weird:

"Just do it, Xander. You're designed for driving pleasure." - Nike (Just do it) & BMW (Designed for driving pleasure)

"Yeah Xandy, Boss will definitely melt in your mouth, not only in your hands." - M&M (Melts in your mouth, not in your hands)

"And he'll be lovin it." - McDonald's (I'm lovin it)

"Do you see what we mean?" - Canon (See what we mean.)

"With the beauty outside and the beast inside, you'll find yourselves in the happiest place on earth." - Mac Pro (Beauty outside. Beast Inside.) & Disneyland (The happiest place in earth)

"Remember Xandy, pleasure is the path to joy." - Haagen-Dazs (Pleasure is the path to joy)

Hope ya'll enjoyed this chapter though it's somewhat like a filler. Yes, I'm rushing through this book as I doubt school is gonna give me any free time lol.
