Chapter 98: Public Reaction
The next morning after a night full of action Diana was resting her head on Jin's well-built chest. She had been awake for a while now. Her mind was currently in a mess and was thinking about her future with Jin.
After seeing the film yesterday Jin's talent in acting was quite apparent to her and to everyone else. It will not take long for Jin to become very famous. While this should be something to celebrate and feel happy about she couldn't help but feel anxious at the same time.
She felt quite inadequate when compared to Jin. He was already handsome, muscular, and hard-working but now in addition to that, he was also going to become a famous actor in the film industry.
Both men and women would come flocking just for his signature and a photograph in due time. Being beside such a talented man as his girlfriend…she was concerned… concerned that Jin would leave her because of her inadequacy.
"Hmm, what are you thinking?" Jin who had just opened his eyes felt Diana's presence on his chest and looked down to see her musing self.
"Ah…nothing, I was just thinking about how famous you're going to become because of this movie," Diana looked up to meet his eyes and said.
"Is that so?..." Jin's eyes lost focus when he saw Diana's face looking towards him from that position. She looked mesmerising even in her dishevelled state.
"Yes…in due time people are going to flock around you for autographs and a selfie…I might even need to get an appointment to meet you in the future because of how busy you're going to be," She said with a subtle hint of insecurity in both her voice and expression.
Since she was being this obvious how could Jin not notice? "So my Diana is jealous that I'll leave her for someone else?" He directly stated the gist of the matter revolving in her head.
"No, I didn't mean it-" Being caught so openly she immediately tried to refuse.
"Shhhh," Jin pressed a finger on Diana's supple lips and she swallowed the words she was about to say and looked blankly at Jin.
Jin grabbed Diana's waist with his other hand the next moment and pulled her towards him.
"Ah!" Diana cried out in surprise.
She was now face to face with Jin. Her whole body lying over his.
"You have a habit of thinking too much darling," Jin said in his low and raspy voice.
"...but isn't it true…you'll be meeting so many beautiful actresses and women because of your status…compared to them I'm just a nerdy girl who has fallen for you…" Diana voiced her feelings with great difficulty. Her heart was pounding rapidly the whole time.
"You're not just any nerdy girl," Jin commented with a smile.
"...Then?" Diana asked with confusion apparent in her eyes.
"You're my nerdy girl," Jin didn't give time for Diana to interpret his words and dived in for a kiss. Two bodies intertwined and played with each other while their lips were undergoing a passionate exchange. All feelings of doubt and insecurity in Diana's mind evaporated as she too became invested in the act.
A few moments later seeing that Jin wanted to go all the way Diana voiced out with a breathless voice, "...We already…did it…4 times last night…" in an attempt to make Jin rethink his decision.
However hearing this Jin only smirked while saying, "Who said there is a limit to it?"
Thus cries of love echoed in all corners of the hotel room as the two bodies in love lost themselves to pleasure.
A while later Diana walked out of the washroom only to see the room all tidied up and a warm breakfast ready to be served.
"It sure is convenient to live in a hotel," Diana commented.
"It indeed is, take a seat," Jin took out a chair and helped Diana to her seat.
"My Jinny being so romantic today," Diana commented in an infatuated manner as she took her seat.
"It's your first time being my guest so of course," Jin replied.
"Tch…I thought you'd give me some honeyed words instead," Diana clicked her tongue in a disappointed manner.
"You sucked all honey out of my mouth this morning don't you remember?" Jin teased.
"That's true. It was real sweet too," Diana said while smacking her lips. After a brief moment of silence, the two started laughing at their silly exchange just now.
"Alright, let's start otherwise you'll be late for your office," Jin said and the two started their breakfast. It felt quite fulfilling since the two of them had been starving after exerting themselves so much.
With the breakfast done Jin dropped Diana to her office and was soon back to his hotel room. Since he barely slept last night he felt tired and decided to take a short nap.
The short nap however ended up becoming a four-hour-long slumber.
When Jin woke up the first thing he did was was to check his phone. Plenty of missed calls were there from Dylan. Jin dialled him back as he placed the phone over his ears.
"Yes?..." Jin asked.
"Where have you been?!" Dylan asked the moment he heard Jin's voice.
"I was asleep. What happened?" Jin asked.
"You're famous!" Dylan replied.
"Huh? What do you mean?" Jin tried to shake the remaining drowsiness off him and concentrate more on Dylan's words.
"Your pictures are making a buzz all around the internet and everyone is talking about the film! I'll share a few screenshots wait!" Dylan hung up and the next moment Jin received a series of images from him.
Jin downloaded them and started going over them one by one.
The first image was from a famous internet application named 'Y' where people shared their thoughts
The movie's name 'Smile Please' was at the top position in its trending list. Jin's name was in the 2nd position!
The PR team had revealed everything about Jin after the film's premier thus attracting more and more crowd. Several forums were trending with titles like,
'A Hero Who Became a Villain: Jin Blaker!'
'From Superman to Supervillain!'
'From Stopping Crimes to Doing It!'
As Jin went over all the images Dylan had sent, a pleased expression formed on his face. Who doesn't like it when their hard work is appreciated?
It was the same with Jin. He felt that all the hard work he had put into his acting during all this time was finally bearing fruit. Wanting to get more dopamine release Jin searched the internet by himself to get the latest news.
A few recently published articles caught his eye,
'Jin Blaker, a star is born,'
'An acting prodigy'
'Explosive Debut!'
Seeing all these clickbait titles which always annoyed the heck out of him never felt so invigorating.
The next few hours were spent by Jin going over all the posts about him and also reading all the comments. He did this until he was fully satisfied.
