Chapter 101 - Seal It With A Kiss (1/1)
Simple things in life are the most beautiful ones. Simple spelled backward is 'extraordinary.' Really, IT IS! Extraordinary can never be simple but simple things have that charm to become extraordinary in life. Because extraordinary often end up losing the 'extra' in it and becomes just plain old 'ordinary.' However, simple is meant to be meaningful and it never loses its meaning or l.u.s.ter.
And that's why a simple YES is quite meaningful.
It's called a simple yes. But that yes can change so many things. A yes holds so many unsaid promises of the unseen future. A simple yes had changed their relationship's meaning entirely. A simple yes that could lead to a million things.
It was a simple YES that was meant to change their entire life.
”Aical. The girl who was so bold to ask him about dating was being so shy now. It made him curious to know which one of her persona was real. Bold one or shy one?
”I don't think she said anything wrong though,” said Darren without a hint of amus.e.m.e.nt in his voice. He sounded really serious as his eyes bore into her as if searching for her soul.
”Huh? What do you mean?” Xiu was completely clueless about what he meant but not for long.
Darren extended his long legs to cross the distance between them and Xiu had only gotten the chance to quirk her eyebrows slightly and before she knew it, his arms were around her; sure and hard as could it be.
”Deals are often sealed with a handshake, but dates are sealed with a kiss.”
Xiu felt a rush of helplessness within hearing his smooth velvety voice so close to her that it could make her whole body feel tingly. The warmth of his hands had made her feel a surging tide of warmth all over. She was shocked to realize that just his hands made her feel so much. Was it because she's completely sober that she felt everything heightened?
His eyes were beckoning her towards himself as if there was a magnetic pull between them that made his eyes want her to incline towards him. And she did ever so willingly under the spell of his eyes.
She felt every single pore of her body awaken when he bent his head and kissed her lips. It was soft at first as if he was hesitating because of something. However, slowly, there was swift graduation in the intensity of the kiss which made Xiu feel dizzy.
Darren had just planned to tease her to see whether she was fl.u.s.tered by his touch or not? But even he became defenseless before the feelings. He was astonished to realize that his heart didn't want to let go. He didn't want to pull away at all. If anything, he wanted to deepen the kiss and delve into her mouth as deep as he could to taste her.
She oddly tasted like warm honey, he was in amazement at how he always found her eyes to be the warmest one and now, even she tasted like honey. A feeling that reminded him of being at home. Being at a place where he belonged.
Her body fitted perfectly in his arms just like their lips. It was obvious that he was the one controlling the kiss since Xiu had long lost her senses. As for Darren, he was entirely acting upon the feeling she surged within him. His body wasn't under his own control at all.
Just as Xiu's hands lifted to pull him closer if it was even possible, her cellphone rang breaking the most amazing kiss of her life. She wanted to ignore it and she did, but the person on the other side was really a stubborn one.
Darren pulled away from her and said, ”I think you should pick that up.”
”Sorry,” said Xiu and rummaged out her phone to see the caller id. Her face twitched to see who was calling.
Seeing the obvious displeasure on her face, Darren craned his neck to see the caller id, he almost laughed when he read, 'Uncle Crazy Bitch' flashing on her screen. He pressed his lips together to stifle his laughter. That was a really unique name for someone. But the question was who spoiled their kiss?
