Chapter 22

I Sat on the couch after taking a refreshing bath sipping my lippe  tea .. It's so quiet here ... If lucas is here, his keyboard  typing sound can be constantly heard.. I sometimes just sit in his room and  watch him working... The way  his fingers move so fast on the keyboard, his eyes glued to the screen.. He sometimes get rid of his contacts and wear glasses and would still Look so handsome.. Or else he would be sleeping like a log..or would be  playing video games with cabel in the living room or he would just sit along with me and read a book but end up falling asleep every time he reads a book or we would just sit on the rooftop chatting

It would be so good if he came back soon... I started reading a book to distract myself from thinking about him  only to get reminded of him more....

I walked upstairs and stood on the rooftop staring at the waves playing tag with the  shore in the distance ... The cold  breeze  caressing my skin make me get goosebumps as it played a sweet tone with the wind chymes I hanged in the  rooftop.. It's is so Comforting.. I turned on my playlist and Sat in the couch staring at the dark night sky.. It's cold still.. I felt I like I need  it... Not only this song.. Every song I hear.. Every romantic lines I read..every lovely scenes I watch in drama.. Everything reminds me of him... I thought  of him when I was running for my life that time.. I thought about how I feel safe around him when I leaned on dad's shoulder and realised  he is the only person other than dad who can make me feel safe... I thought of him when I eat brownies alone..

I..  got  rewinded  of  helly's words  when I was singing that song..

"Love is.. Something you get aware anytime... It's a feeling that you at one moment realise  .. 'oh.. This is love..'  like that.."

I felt overwhelmed with emotions.. I love lucas so much... I can't tell for sure I am OK now  but I realised  I can't live on my own without him..

When I was sitting there dazed my head and heart   full  of thoughts about him.. I heard his voice...

" sia..." 

That voice which call my name sweetly.. make my heart skip a beat every single time .. I looked up  and saw him standing there smiling at me... That gorgeous smile.. Am I even hallucinating his image now...? I am so good at this...he feels so real..!!

.......

2 hours ago..

"hey lucas check helly 's ig" cabel said.

Lucas stared at his mobile with a bright smile... It's the video of athy singing  surrounded by her friends... As he is hearing the song.. His heart thumped faster

"my baby sings like an angel... Haah... I miss her so much.. I want to see her right now.."

he said with a sad smile. Cabel stared  at him with a 'you are unbelievable ' look..

" Haah..dude we are literally waiting for your flight  for jeju island ... You worked like a maniac and finished the work fucking four days ahead and  now going to meet your girlfriend... Stop acting lovesick .. I was the one who have to go to seoul and hand  over the files to uncle..ohh...it's finally your time.. Go go.. "he said pushing lucas ahead.

Lucas turned back and smiled at  him.

" thanks caby.. You are the best "he said smiling.. Cabel giggled as he waved bye.

" Yeah.. Yeah.. What can you do without me.? Bye lucas .."

he said waving as he walked outside. Lucas reached  jeju  and hurried back    home..

Lucas..p.o.v.

Huh.. Is she still not home...? It's so late at night what is she doing outside .? Should I call her.? Haah..but I want to surprise her... Ok I will just refresh first then I will go and found where she is..

I went to my room and took a warm shower... Haah.. I am exhausted  from travelling for almost 15 hrs.. But I can't wait to see her..i weared my shirt and walked towards the kitchen.. I drank some water and saw the tea set is on the dining table and it's hot..? Is she home.? From When.?  I rushed to the living room and she isn't there.. also not in her room.. Where the hell is she.?  I was about to go out to  the garden but I reminded of another possible place and walked upstairs...like I thought she is sitting on the couch on  rooftop dazed.. Haah.. This girl.. she never listen to others.. It's freezing cold here. What is she doing alone..? She didn't even realised I was home.. If only I didn't put strong security system around the house..

"sia.."

I called and she stared at me dazed.. Hmm.? I kinda feel sad... Her reaction is too simple.. But it's only a little, I can't define in words how happy I was  seeing her again.. I walked towards her and leaned as I cupped her face and she stared at me with her doe eyes  wide  ..

" what are you doing here in this cold.? See. You are freezing.. Let's go inside" I said  caressing her cheek and she stared at me totally confused

She Placed her hand above mine and stared  at me..

"lucas..?" she mumbled in a low voice

"hmm.?" I hummed tilting my head smiling.

" are you really here..?"she asked in a surprised tone

" pfft.. Of course then am I a hologram..? I came back as soon as I can.."

I said and smiled. Her eyes which are staring at me wide in surprise got pooled with tears..

She got up and  tackled me with a hug  and I hugged her back... Haah.. I missed her scent so much.. I tightened the hug and buried my face on her neck.. Taking in her scent as much as i can..

She parted from the hug and stared at me with  tears dripping down her face smiling so brightly..

"why are you smiling and crying at the same time..?" I asked as I wiped her tears...

"cause I am happy you are finally back.. I missed you so much.."

she said and I felt my heart thumping  faster  and warmth spread all over my body  and I finally felt alive again...

It's you who keep me alive sia...

"hmm.. I missed you too.." I said and  smiled.. She smiled back and hugged me again tight..

So warm..

"lucas..."

she called me parting from the hug and looking  up at me  straight   in the eyes ..those beautiful blue eyes.. Hold so many emotions

"hmm..?" I hummed..

" I love you..."

she said and I was in daze.. Wait.. Is this really  happening?  May be I am hallucinating.. I thought and she Continued  to speak when I can't even process the first line  properly in my head ..

"I love you so much that I can't live  without you.."

Now I feel dizzy from happiness ..what if  I faint from  happines..? I stared at her smiling and she smiled at me with... Love.. So much love, happiness..i took a step towards her closing our gap and leaned closer

Athy's P. O. V.

He leaned closer and kissed me on the lips.. My first kiss... It can't be more special than this since it's lucas.. I felt butterflies fluttering in my stomach and warmth rushing every nook and corner of my body.. He deepened  the kiss as he slid his tongue inside and I felt like my heart would come out of my chest..i parted from the kiss to catch my breath and I stared  at  him panting.. Those red eyes felt overwhelming.. His gaze.. It's like he want to devour me.. He kissed me all over the face and my neck behind my ear and I felt an electrifying sensation all over my body when left his mark on the curve of  my neck and  my legs gave out.

I was about to fall down  but he lifted me up and made me sit on the rooftop railing and kissed me hard, his one hand hugging my waist and other holding my nape .. As we parted from the kiss panting saliva  threading and bridging from our lips.. He said 

" so.. No faking anymore.. You are my real  girlfriend .." he said smiling in a sweet tone..

"hmm.. Yeah.. Your real girlfriend.." I  said and he smiled so beautifully ..

" thanks for coming back soon .. I really missed you so much.." I  said cupping his face and he smiled.

" I also missed you that's why I flew  back to you... It was so tiring but now I feel like it's all worth it..." he said and  smiled.

" hm.. It would have been easier if we can able talk to each other.. I wanted to tell you first" I  mumbled

"huh.. Tell me what...?" he asked. I  smiled as I  sit straight on the railing and lucas holded my waist  carefully so I won't fall  .

P. O. V.. Ends. - - - - -

She  stared at him straight in the eyes and smiled

"lucas.. I and dad reconciled.. Dad was with me when you are gone he only went back to seoul few hours ago" she said and lucas stared at her frozen like a statue..

"hey.. Lucas .?" she called him poking his cheek..

"wait..it's too much surprises for me.. First your confession now this... When.? How.?  Haah.. I should have been here to see that" he said and she giggled

She then explained everything to him.

"what..? Someone tried to kidnap you.? " he asked in a low menacing tone.. The atmosphere  got heavy and she smiled trying to ease his mood..

"are you okay sia ..?" he asked caressing her cheek and she smiled nodding a yes

"to my surprise I am really OK.. I composed myself  and called dad  and he saved me on time." 

she said and smiled... He stared at her silently and leaned closer until thier foreheads touched.

" Haah.. I shouldn't have left you.. What if you didn't called uncle.? "he said in a worried tone..

" it's really OK.. Other than I kept missing you 24/7... I am really alright.. I am doing well.. I  hanged out with my friends and had fun  "

she said cupping his face and caressed his cheek with her thumb.

" hmm.. I saw you singing " he said as he took her hand in his and kissed it..

" huh.. How..? "she asked blushing tilting her head

" helena posted it "he said and she smiled ..

" then.. Is your work done.? You don't have to go back right.? "

she asked and he nodded a yes as he smoothly lifted her from the rail and she giggled as her  legs hugged   his waist firmly with her hands around his neck. He walked down to her room and  lied her down on  the bed gently.

"hey.. I am not sleepy.. "

she said as she tried to get up but lucas pushed her down making her lie down again.. He smirked as he leaned closer to her ear and whispered

" baby... We didn't came down so that you can sleep.. You might not be able to sleep today.. "he said and she flinched..

He moved away and stared at her Intensely like  digging a hole inside her soul  and she felt completely defenseless as she give in to those deep red  rubies glowing with desire ..

'those.. Red eyes...this jerk.. Why even his voice is so sexy when he whisper..?  Haah.. I can tell from that gaze.. He is gonna devour me alive...' she thought and gulped..

Lucas kissed her gently on her lips and the kiss got intense as he caressed her waist and stomach his hand sliding  inside her crop top and caressed her bossoms as he left a hickey on her neck.. She let out a soft moan which only ignited the fire inside him as he slid his hand down her waist and slowly unbuttoned her jean shorts..

She grabbed his hand and he stopped, staring deep in  her eyes.

" should I stop here..?" he asked in a low whispering voice she was silent for a while

" it's just.. I am nervous.." she mumbled and he giggled.

"sia.. It's my first time also.. Don't worry.." he said caressing her cheek..

'yeah..I totally forgot I am his first too...'she thought and that made her so happy as she pulled him for  a kiss... He smiled as he kissed her back as he slid his hand under her  panties...
