Alter Ego: His Sultry Lover

Chapter 291 - Jump Him

Chapter 291 - Jump Him

And here she thought they wanted to know about the championship. Her demographic was broad, with both men and women watching her and following her for her art and gaming streams. And the overwhelming number of men were also chiming in, asking about every aspect of the date.

One comment even asked if she was already pregnant with the guy's super s.p.e.r.m. That one really made her laugh. She could only wish for that type of action.

She quickly uploaded a couple of pictures onto Instagram and scrolled through the profiles of others who had participated in the championship.

She was wearing the same dress they had chosen and clearly someone had taken care to take her photographs. So they knew instantly that it was the guy she had been on a date with. The comments started to flood in.

[He took you to the store? What a dream!]

[Man's got game!]

[Do we get to see him?]

[I imagine all that videogame paraphernalia really got you hot and bothered.]

What a bunch of perves her followers were.

It would explain a lot. But whoever needed aphrodisiac when they were dating Cage?

"My dear perverts… as you know I have come back in one piece from the date. Thank you for all the speculation. And no, he is not here, not that it's any of your business. A perfect gentleman, that's what he is."

"I know you are curious about who he is, but it's just our first date and no way am I going to bring him onto the channel." She thought for a bit. "In a way, I have brought him into the picture by talking about him and he knows that. But I don't want to share him with all of you. At least, not anytime soon." She was lying blatantly. She wouldn't tell them unless Cage's PR team sent the statement out.

She started to talk about some random stuff, answering questions, telling people about her experience.

"I've been a fan of yours since I saw you play. I was here for Liam, but I stayed for you," a shy teenager said as he passed her a poster and asked her to sign it.

She was sitting at the table, her head bent as he drew on the poster and placed a signature on it.

"Thank you. It's what prompted me to start the channel, really. I was just playing games in my room up until then." She handed the poster back to the guy. "Why are you guys here anyways? All the bigshots are in the neighboring booths."

"You're our angel and way funnier than them," someone hollered. Katherine laughed.

"Well, I'm lucky you think so!" Another fan came up and chatted with her.

"Will you go out with that guy again?" the girl asked suddenly. "You're not going to the party for the vloggers, so… I figured." Katherine smiled.

"I don't like to dance and I barely socialize. So, I pulled out." She couldn't admit that she was going out or word would get around and people would find her on her date with Cage.

"Yeah, but you changed plans all of a sudden. You're going out with him again, right?" she asked, sounding hopeful.

While she wasn't anywhere close to famous like Cage, sometimes she understood the things that bothered him on a daily basis. She had released a tentative schedule about where she would be and hadn't known at the time that Cage would be in town. Of course she was not going to any of the events anymore.

She just hadn't expected someone to figure out that she had pulled out.

"Yeah, it's because of that guy," she said confidently, even though she didn't feel it. "Look, it's him." Her phone had chimed and she knew it was him.

"A text?" someone shouted from the end of the line. Was she really that loud?

"Yeah." She laughed.

"A s.e.xt?" someone prompted.

This time, Katherine blushed. She shook her head. She opened the text and smiled. It was a gaming meme. As usual, he was goofing it up.

Katherine explained to the crowd and things went as normal.

At the end of the signing event, she received a text from his number.

[In the parking lot, waiting for you. Tonight is going to be a long night.]

Promises, promises.

She looked down at her clothes. They were nice enough for any occasion, as long as he didn't take her to a really fancy place. But he wouldn't be that high-key, in her opinion.

He was sitting inside the car this time. It was for the best because people in the convention had a higher chance of recognizing him. She knocked on the window and waited for him to open. His eyes lit up when she entered and he reached out to take her hand.

"You look wonderful," he said.

"I've been signing all day long. I know I don't look that great." She stuck her tongue out at him. He gripped her hand harder.

"To think that so many people saw you look like this." He faked a growl, making her giggle. He swooped in to kiss her. God, his kisses… they were so intoxicating.

Her head swam and she resisted the urge to move over and place herself on his lap. Who cared about the date, when she could just jump him.

She shook her head and urged him, "Please start the car before I do something bad."

They pulled up in front of a bar and Katherine's eyes lit up with delight. "I've heard of this place," she whispered, almost reverently. "Doesn't it have an arcade?" she asked, knowing the answer.

Cage chuckled and urged her to go ahead. He was just going to park and be back. She stood in front of the front door and waited patiently, her excitement rising.

He knew exactly where to take her. It was not a huge town, in all honesty and there were about a handful of places that would suit them. Mostly, it would be easier for Cage to go around such places because less people would be there and fewer who would recognize him. Moreover, they would enjoy it further.
