Ranking System-Chapter 110 A Date With Courtney (Part II)

With the arrival of my tuna sandwich and Charles's kid's meal, I began to take a bite of my food. The food I ate was better than I initially thought it would be. It wasn't something I would constantly eat, but it was better than I thought.

"Say ahh..."

Charles unexpectedly grabbed a stick of potato and placed it in front of my mouth. A kid's meal should have something easy to eat. With Charles feeding me, I opened my mouth and ate the whole piece.

I felt a slight embarrassment once he did this openly in public. Once I got to taste the stick of potato with the thick red sauce, it had a flavorful taste--the crunchiness with the salt blended in well. I couldn't get enough of it.

"Charles... Could you feed me more..."

"Of course." He replied, taking out another piece of potato.

Even if his actions were embarrassing, the taste of his stick was too good for me to resist. Asking for more, Charles did so willingly.

"Here."

Another piece was placed in front of me, but before I could take a bite, he took it back and ate it in front of me.

He gave me a smug smile, and I felt a tinge of annoyance. Luckily this was the only time he had done this.

"Disgusting couples..."

A voice leaked out from our neighboring seat. I saw a bitter man staring at us with a depressed aura around him.

Do we look that much like a couple? My body couldn't help but feel warm thinking about what the man had said.

Was this what it felt like to be in a relationship? This feeling... I had always imagined myself in this situation but was never in a relationship.

Even though I hadn't been in a relationship for that long, this feeling wasn't so bad. Time passed, and our lunch was finished. After Charles paid the bills, we went to our next destination.

[Charles POV]

With our lunch finished, I would say it was overwhelmingly successful. I got Courtney into a great mood, and the event should be even better.

"Charles... I'm afraid of monsters..."

Courtney and I had already arrived at a zoo full of animals from different worlds. Well, that was unexpected. I never thought Courtney would be scared of places like this.

"The monster's here won't be able to harm you. All you need to do is stick beside me. If you want, we could visit other places."

This was my first time going into a zoo. Since Courtney didn't seem to reject my idea, she stuck to me as a child would. If it doesn't work out, I will leave with her.

"Don't you think this animal is cute? Nothing to be scared of, see?" 𝐟𝙧ee𝔀e𝐛𝓃𝐨𝚟𝑒𝗹.c𝗼𝚖

"Read the description..."

Our first animal looked like a cotton ball. Cotton devourers may seem all nice and cute, but these creatures are incredibly aggressive. Being in the biting range, they will tear you apart and eat you from limb to limb.

Oh... No wonder why these creatures are in costly cages. This place would be a death zone if these cute creatures escaped.

"Courtney, no need to be afraid. What are they going to do? Escape? These glass panels are made so even people in the third-ranked world would have trouble breaking."

"You're right... I'm only being paranoid."

That was a step up from her previous attitude. For the next hour, we visited many of the inhabitants of these animals one would rarely see.

Animals to monsters. Underground creatures to creatures that could fly. Many of these beasts had quirks of their own. For the non hostile monsters, I got Courtney to touch one.

Once she approached it, she was like a scared animal, but with a little push, all her fears and worries disappeared.

After finishing a small tour at the zoo, we sat down on a bench. In this fine weather, a popsicle stick was the way to go. Courtney had her head leaned against my shoulder. She was slightly exhausted from the emotional excitement she had witnessed.

"It's not so bad, isn't it?"

"I didn't think a dinosaur would look so cute..."

Since we were resting, I stuck a watermelon popsicle in her mouth. The pure bliss that she was feeling was unimaginable.

"..."

It didn't take long before Courtney had eaten all of the popsicles, leaving none for me. I also wanted a taste of it.

"Don't you think you're being too unfair? You ate everything."

"Ah..."

In her joyful mood, she hadn't realized she had finished everything. Courtney gave a nervous chuckle and apologized.

"If you think about it, there's one way for me to have a taste."

"There is?"

I gave her a huge grin and stared at her lips. Once she saw where I set my eyes, she realized my intentions. Courtney shied away, but it made her imagine the scene.

Without any further, I took her lips and tasted the aftermath of the melon popsicle. The sweet taste made this kiss even better. After a few seconds, Courtney gave in to this sensation and kissed me back.

The passerby had either steered away from us or were flustered by our boldness. I couldn't taste the sweetness of the melon anymore and finished our kiss.

With our kiss over, Courtney looked dazed as she began to breathe heavily. I could feel both love and lust coming from her.

"Sorry, but our date ain't over yet."

What I said had snapped her back to reality. Her face heated up like never before. Courtney never would've thought of herself to be that type of person.

What a troublesome woman. I patted Courtney's head to calm her down. The results worked, and the flustered Courtney stared at me. f𝒓𝑒e𝙬𝒆𝚋𝘯૦𝘷𝐞𝑙.c𝑜𝐦

"We still have all day. It would be a shame to waste it now."

"Sorry..."

"Don't overthink it. We still have more places to visit. Let's go."

Taking Courtney's hand, the both of us left the zoo.
