56 I was head over heels on you (1/2)
”My little wife is jealous?” He suddenly asked while he was driving away from the bar. She cross her arms and gave him an annoyed look. ”We just have a fling.” He explained. ”I married you because you are you and… I was head over heels on you.”
She stop and suddenly her annoyance vanished. She gave him a sideways look. He reach her hand while driving and kisses it. She flushes like a teenage girl and then he keep kissing it.
”You still angry?” He glance at her. She shook her head and he smile charmingly. ”Wife, I suddenly felt like—I don't want to live in this life without you. I mean, it is rare for me to feel it. Back then, I live because I have a goal and now it seemed pointless, not until I found you. You are the best pillow in the world.”
She was taken aback from what he said. He's clearly confessing his love to her. He keep driving the car and they are both silent. She don't know why her heart is beating so loud and it always respond to him. Was this really love feels like? The mixed of emotions. The euphoria and she can feel the life.
Her world was dark and like an underworld for years, now he came and give a life on her comfort zone. She watch him drive while they are holding hands together. His handsome face has a little similarities from Greek Gods statues or maybe he was a God. A handsome one.
Gabriel drive carefully for that warm moment in the car. Silent but they both knew what they felt for each other. She had fallen asleep from one hour drive and there's no traffic along the way. He carried her to their bedroom. He had prepare their bed with scented candles and petals of roses on bed.
”We are home.” She shove her face on his neck. ”Was this your first time to celebrate Valentine?”
She nodded. He put her down but she don't want to let go so, he pull her up and he lay down with her on top of him. He caress her hair lovingly and on his way to comfort. Whatever she felt must be difficult, but there's no difficult thing that she couldn't handle. She just need a little comfort.
”I cook something, your favorite.” She lifted her face to him and she receive a warm kiss on her forehead. ”Ride on back, I'll prepare the foods.”
She did ride on his back like a real koala as he went downstairs where the butlers and maids are preparing the foods that he cook for their dinner. It looks fresh from casserole but he cook it one and a half hour before he pick her up.
”You can tell me anything. I am your husband now. Your companion for life. Your best friend. Your protector. Your legal guardian…”
”Feed me.” She mutter. He was stunned that she speak. He smile and kiss her lips. Though she talk too little, it was fine with him. As long as he could hear her voice. He did feed her until they finish the food on the table. It was all good for two.
