Convincing her (Jen and Lucas)

Chapter 517: Belated Regrets.

The couple went through their indoor shoot and completed it in no time since they acted like no one else was around. Of course, the happiest person in the room was the photographer because their chemistry meant that he did not have to give much instruction and waste time trying to get them to be comfortable to become lovey-dovey in front of cameras. 

Lucas was naturally talented in this in the sense that if he was in the same room with Jen, then everyone else was an extra. He only had her in his eyes and this made the photographer happy because it meant he wouldn't get easily distracted by what everyone else was doing. 

After completing the indoor photoshoot, the couple got in the vans arranged and got their makeup redone. Lucas pouted as they left for the shoot as he was hoping to be in the same van as Jen. 

Everything had already been prepared and the two of them being in the same van would mean that they would have to move Jen's things out and some of the things Lucas would need into the van. 

The photographer's creative juices were already running, so he was unwilling to waste time on a task that he felt was very unnecessary. 

They had to go to four locations and when they were finally done with the shoot; the couple was feeling dog tired. 

"The photos will be ready in two days. Would you like me to develop large photos for you to frame?" The photographer asked Lucas, who had already changed into his clothes and was patiently waiting for Jen.

"Please do. We have a lot of places where they can be hung up," Lucas said with a smile. He knew that his mother would definitely want to hang one at home so she could brag about it with her friends and also pressure his brothers to get married.

The photographer smiled happily after hearing this and left while whistling a tune. He had taken photos for couples and met people who would become shy or awkward in front of the camera.

When he asked them to kiss, it would take forever for him to get a good shot and he would be so riled up his words would get harsher with every click of the shutter. So he was happy today that he had gotten clients who quickly captured the feeling he was looking for and were very willing to cooperate. 

Lucas looked at the slim middle-aged man as he gathered his crew to prepare to leave. When Jen walked out of her van, she found Lucas with a shallow smile on his face.

"What happened?" Jen asked as she stood at his side. 

"I have a feeling our photos will look very good," he said as he put his arm around her shoulders and pulled her closer to him. 

"It would be strange if they didn't look good. He is a renowned photographer," Jen said as she leaned against him. 

"Hungry?" Lucas asked abruptly, changing the subject, and Jen's stomach rumbled in a timely manner. 

"It looks like you are," Lucas said with a chuckle, and led her to the car. As the driver drove them out of the mountains, the two started talking about what they wanted to eat later. 

"You want steak today?" Lucas asked in surprise. Most of the food she had eaten during this period had a mild taste. 

"Mmh, I want steak," Jen said as she poked Lucas's dimple. 

What the lady wants, the lady gets," Lucas said happily. He had accompanied Jen to eat, so he was also tired of the light tasting food. He gave the driver instructions on where to take them before raising the partition. 

"What is it?" Jen asked, unconsciously whispering. 

"I had to restrain myself a lot today not to go overboard," Lucas said and effortlessly picked her up and put her on his lap. 

"I don't think you did," Jen said as she placed her hand on his chest to keep some distance between them. 

"Trust me, I think I fell for you a bit more today," Lucas said as he pulled her towards himself, not really caring about the hand she had placed on his chest. 

"Just a bit?" Jen teased when she heard his words. 

"Maybe a bit more than a bit. Let me show you exactly how much," Lucas said as he took her hand and pulled her so she fell on his chest. 

"You are acting like a rogue," Jen said with a smile. She only needed to move forward a bit for her to kiss him. 

"Whose fault is that?" Lucas said and leaned forward to playfully nibble on her lips. 

"You're making me want to skip lunch," Jen said teasingly, and she was immediately pulled in for a kiss. Lucas did not hold back at all, making her understand what he meant when he said that he had been restraining himself. 

Jen was kissed till she forgot how to breathe before Lucas started focusing on her neck. She gasped for breath as he did this, making the entire scene even more ambiguous. The car was completely silent, so the subtle noises that came from them making out were even more prominent. 

"Lucas, you should wait till we go back home," Jen said once she had recovered some of her senses. 

"I probably should," Lucas said with a chuckle as he playfully bit her ear. Jen closed her eyes in response to this action as she felt a tingling sensation go through her body. What business did he have to sound so sexy?! She secretly lamented. Before she could pull away from him, Lucas held her chin to raise her head. 

Her brown eyes met his hazel ones and met and whatever was on her mind was swept away with the intensity of his gaze. This time, she was the one who leaned forward and kissed his lips. 

She couldn't help herself from doing so. She had even forgotten that she was the one who was trying to stop him from taking things further. Who asked him to be so good looking? Looking at her the way he did, he was obviously asking for it. Lucas smiled as he deepened the kiss, his hand lightly teasing her thighs. 

This time, Jen was the one that was pressing Lucas against the back of the car seat, her legs straddling him. Since he wasn't going to stop, then she might as well enjoy herself. 

Lucas's hands had already slipped under her dress, and his fingers were fiddling with the edge of her panties. Before he could go further, the car stopped, taking Jen out of the trance she had found herself in. She pulled away from him and looked out the window, and realised that they have arrived at the restaurant already. 

Lucas, who had been excited, frowned as he too noticed that they arrived. Jen got off of him and fixed her clothes while Lucas tried to calm himself down. Maybe they should have just gone home instead.
