CHAPTER 28
CHLOE'S POV
"Why would you think I have a girlfriend?"
" Are you kidding me? You literally said it yourself "
" When?"
" When I asked you if I was ever gonna meet your girlfriend and you said soon. Even the time you said you were in a good mood because of a certain someone. It explains it all", I sighed.
" Ok, first of all, when I said you were gonna meet my girlfriend soon, I said it because I didn't want you to think I'm lame for not having a girlfriend. And secondly, I was in a good mood because that certain someone was and is still you", his cheeks turned a brighter shade of pink.
" Really?"
" Yeah", he slammed our lips together, kissing me deeply, with passion and longing.
My fingers found their way into his hair as I tugged it softly, making him groan.
He nibbed at my bottom lip, asking for permission and I obliged. I was so engrossed in the kiss that I didn't realize, we were now in the middle of the pool.
Keith held me steady with his hands under my thighs, and I had my arms around his neck.
I was savouring the moment until he let go of me and I fell into the water with a big splash.
"Ahhhhh", I screamed, while he was laughing.
"Why did you do that?", I was fuming when I got up.
" I thought....it'd be....funny", he said between laughs.
" Oh, you thought it was gonna be funny?! What if I had drowned? Did you think of that?", I yelled, slapping his shoulder repeatedly.
" I didn't and I'm sorry", he held my hands and stared deep in my eyes.
" I don't care", I yanked my hands away from his and left the pool. I ran to my room and locked the door.
I changed clothes to a scarf tank top and jean shorts. I wasn't in the mood for watching tv so I stayed in the room doing absolutely nothing but staring at the ceiling.
I was about drifting off to sleep when the banging came.
"Chloe? I know you can hear me. Open the door let's talk. I'm sorry", Keith said, knocking rapidly.
I didn't reply at all.
"Chloe, I'm sorry. And I won't go anywhere until you open this door", he can't possibly be serious, right? Right?
I fell into a deep slumber and when I woke up, it was 4:24.
I got up and opened the door, only to find Keith, sleeping on the floor, by the door.
So, he was really serious.
I smiled, my cheeks tinted pink and butterflies dancing in my stomach.
I squatted down and tapped him lightly.
"Keith, wake up", he stirred a little bit but was still asleep.
"C'mon, Keith, wake up", this time he got up and pulled me for a hug.
"Hi", I said, stylishly sniffing him.
I love his cologne.
"Hey, I'm sorry", he apologized.
"It's fine, I forgive you", I broke the hug.
"Really?", his eyes lit up.
"Yeah", my eyes flickered to his lips.
He noticed and didn't think twice to connect our lips together. I giggled and kissed him back but soon pulled away. He groaned and I laughed.
"Someone might see", I reasoned.
"Let them"
"You can't be serious. I don't want my sister to find out"
"Fine, my room or yours"
"Yours", I giggled and he carried me like a baby into his room. He sat on the bed and placed me on his lap, so I was straddling him.
"Now, where were we?", he smirked and placed his lips on mine, his hands, undoing my bun and finding their way to my waist. I leaned in closer, deepening the kiss, my hands wrapped around his neck.
He left my lips and started placing peppered kisses from my neck down to my collarbone. I tried to stifle my moans so my sister wouldn't hear me.
Yeah, she has sharp hearing.
I felt him lick my collarbone before leaving a mark on it and finding his way back to my lips.
I pulled back shortly after, and asked
"Why'd you do that?"
"Do what?", he asked back, acting all innocent.
"This", I pointed to the hickey on my collarbone.
"I just couldn't resist marking you", he smiled sweetly at me.
" But it's obvious", I whined but he sealed my mouth shut with a breathtaking kiss. I responded like I wasn't about to scold him.
What has he done to me??!!!
This time he pulled away and stared at me, tucking a few strands of hair behind my ear.
" You are so beautiful"
" Thank you", my cheeks betrayed me when they went full-on red.
" I love when you blush. You look so damn cute", he kissed my forehead, then my nose, then my cheeks... basically every part of my face and placed a long kiss on my lips.
" I think we should watch a movie", he said out of the blue.
" Okay", I got up from his lap and left the room so he could change, while I waited for him downstairs.
"What movie do you wanna watch?", he asked, walking down the stairs and coming over to sit
next to me.
"Do revenge"
"Huh"
"It's like, highschool romance kind of stuff"
" Ok", and then the movie started.
I suggested we shouldn't get popcorn or any snacks as payback to what Keith did to me in the pool.
He kept whining but I didn't pay attention. My mind kept replaying our make out session, and then I remembered.
" Kay?"
" Yeah?"
" Is the hickey still obvious?"
" Not really, but I can give you another one", he teased with a mischievous smile.
" I'm good, thank you", I replied and he laughed.
============================
WEDNESDAY
I woke up very early with the intention of making breakfast for everyone so I didn't bother to shower first. I head downstairs in my cropped shirt and pajama pants.
I rummaged through the cupboards in the kitchen until I found all the ingredients I will be using.
I had pancakes in mind so I started with the batter and fried all the batches.
I also set all the plates on the dining table with some fruits and a bottle of syrup.
I was doing the dishes when I felt arms around my waist.
"Good morning, peanut", Keith kissed my cheeks and buried his face in my neck.
"Good morning, Keith. How'd you know I was here?"
"I checked your room and you weren't there so"
"Why were you in my room?"
"To do this", he spun me around to face him and kissed me.
Keith is the best!
I pulled back and smiled at him.
"So, you wanted to kiss me?", I asked.
"It's not just a kiss. It's a good morning kiss", he pecked my lips and I giggled.
" Well, as you can see, I'm busy", I continued with the dishes and he groaned.
" Why don't you pay any attention to me?", he whined, placing his hands on my hips.
"I do pay attention. It's just that I have to wash the dishes"
"Can't someone else do them?"
"Matt gave all his staff the week off so since I made breakfast, I have to do the dishes. But it would be fun if you help me"
"You're right. If I help you, I'll have you all to myself for the rest of the day", he giggled and that was one of the most amazing sounds I have ever heard.
"Stop acting like a child trying to get his momma's attention"
"I won't"
