"Love is always undefined and the pride hidden at the back of its feelings are the drivers that take our loved ones away", Catherine said as she poured herself some milk. "So son saying sorry doesn't mean you were wrong, it means you are a gentleman and you care." She smiled at me and left.
I walked slowly from the kitchen processing what Catherine had told me and the same time figuring out the best way to apologize to Sharon. I headed direct to my small house bar, picked two glasses and poured wine into both of them then followed Sharon. She was sitting at one side of the swimming pool direct to the sun and with her legs inside the pool playing with the water. Her eyes were fixed inside the swimming pool. I walked slowly and sat beside her.
"If you told me four years ago that I will be single four year to come I would call you insane, but I guess he was true when he said we don't know what tomorrow holds for us", I started.
"Sometime we so occupied by people who made our past miserable that we forget the one who are holding our futures in their hands, I am sorry", I said as I handed her one wine glass.
She picked the glass and held it on her laps with both of her the shifted her eyes from the swimming pool to the glass.
"You know I have had a crush on you for more than a year", she began
"What?"
"I first saw you was at Tames birthday party", she continued
"Wait!, Are you serious right now?" I surprisingly asked her.
"So that's why I know so much about you, and I did not get mad because of you but because I know some of your ex-lovers and am not their type", she sipped her dink then sympathetically looked at me. "I witnessed everything that happened that day." She continued to surprise me.
"Wait, do you mean you agree to be my lover?" I asked with a smile all over my face
"You have to do that romantically and seriously'', she answered.
There was a moment of silence but that did not mean we were not engaged in a conversation. I could feel her answer my questions as we shared a lot about Tame's birthday party and the mistakes we did that day, may be mistakes we will never forget or may be the mistakes will never let us go.
"I am hosting a charity event tonight and I would like you to come", she broke the silence with some astonishing and dangerous news.
Dangerous because one, I had promised myself never to attend parties again since Tame's birthday party, two we met last night and even if we have shared some romantic moments I know nothing about her and three, her parents will be at the party she has just invited me and may be her ex. I had so many fears and she knew that.
"It's okay to have that fears but I want to make you a promise", she raised up her glass.
"Cheers", she said
"Cheers" I answered and had the second sip of my wine since I sat down beside her
"This will mark the rudiment of new mint trices between us, and I promise to always be there for you", she said then kissed me on my labiums.
"I do not know what to say but I kind like the last part of the kiss", I said. "Can you do it again?" I requested.
She looked at me smiling but a bit surprised by what I had just said. From the look of things she wanted to be with me but there were some forces pulling her back that's if she wasn't acting. I could do anything to kiss her more and more telling her how much I want to spent more time with her between kisses.
She sipped her wine, looked direct to my eyes romantically, pouted her own lips biting them in the most seductive way have ever seen. For a moment I reminisced our previous kissing episodes and how saccharine her lips tested and imagined how this one will be. My tarse betrayed my mind and imagination by knocking through the short I was wearing. I pretended nothing was happening with my short leg only to realize her eyes stabled and may be coitizing internally because of the push caused by my pintle.
She raked my hands with hers then came closer to find my lips. I closed my eyes and waited for the departure of this journey of an unknown destination but its fruits of unexplainable, stupefying, mystifying and wild joy and happiness. Her lips met mine, a trembling lovesome sensation declared war on my whole body sending my breath to a yelp for a moment.
Indeed she was a talented kisser, I was sure if I ever organize the kissing competition, she would be the winner but if only she did it with me. Our lips enjoyed each other's company and taste for minutes until I couldn't take it anymore. I could feel her torpedoes hardening more and more and pushing against my chest. That's when I realized that she was not wearing a brassiere. The more I felt their arousing squeeze to my chest as she proved my kissing skills wrong the more I could not resist the urge to touch them, but before I could make my move, the devil proved me wrong too.
"That's enough for now Zach", she said as she let me go.
"Is everything okay?" I forced myself to ask hiding my disappointment that she won't notice any signs.
"Everything is perfect dear, it's just that I have a busy day and I have to get going", she stood giving me a wonderful and heart pleasing smile that took away all the doubts I had about her.
"Can you hold this for me please?" she handed me her glass then tightened her long hair behind her head. "I'll make you a deal", she began catching my full attention, "If you catch up with me before I get to my room ill grant one of your wishes", she added.
Her words made me more surprised and suspicious. One, I was total percentage sure that there was no way she'll beat me in the race and two, why come up with such a competition. The explanations to my suspicion was only known to her.
"Are you ready?" I teased her
"Wait!" she bubbled. Before I could wait, she was already near the door running faster than I had imagined. She had tricked me. I put the glasses on my hand on the floor then began my bedroom race, little did I know that this was my unluckiest day ever than by the time I was at the sitting room, and Sharon was already done with the stairs.
"Unbelievable", I screamed as I stopped to look at her as she laughed at me
