Vulnerable

Chapter 18

**Warning: A few matured contents in this chapter**

I didn't know what to say or feel about his confession.

So, I just placed my hands on his thigh as I gave him a smile.

I felt that wasn't intimate enough to let him know I felt the same way.

So, I stood up from my bed.

Placed my half finished meal beside the bedside drawer and took his hands in a bid to make him stand.

When he stood up, I enveloped him in a hug and gave a deep breath hoping he could hear my heart beat in the same rhythm as his.

I let us stay that way till he finally hugged me back with his hands around my waist, making me feel that same chill run up my spine.

"Can I kiss you?" He asked

And I nodded my head in affirmative as I looked up to him with a smile.

Slowly he drew closer to me till his lips finally met mine and we kissed for long with me relishing on everything I felt. The minty masculine taste, the thrilling feeling gushing my entire system, the enveloping smell of his cologne and the picturesque view of my inner eye followed by the strange sound we both exchanged, making me believe he was enjoying this as much as I was.

I felt his hands slowly trail my ribs region. His hands beneath my clothes and the ecstasy of it all throwing me off guard as my body involuntarily let him feel more of me.

My back arching in a bid to make my breast be in contact with his skin.

And then I felt it, the one thing that drove my entire system to a frenzy. He cupped my breast which fitted his huge masculine hands, his fingers teasing my n*****s.

I stifled a moan as my body seemed to want more

I felt so out of control in my own body. I just wanted more of the pleasure I was feeling.

This felt so new and exciting to me.

I loved it

But then, we were interrupted by the sound of his iPhone ringing.

He made a groaning sound as he didn't seem to want to let go. I didn't want to let go either but it was probably an important call.

So, I let myself get off him hesitantly as he brought out his phone from his back pocket.

His hands were leveled to my height and I could see the incoming call was from Julian.

He saved her name, Julian with a heart emoji and I felt this pang in my heart.

He must have noticed my look as he declined the call and gave me a look.

"I heard what happened in school today and that was one of the reasons why I was calling you. Don't listen to her. Julian means nothing to me " He stated.

" She seemed very confident in claiming you as her's." I said in a voice that I couldn't even recognize as mine.

"Well, I'm not her's" he said with a smug look and I squeezed my face with a narrowed eye gaze.

"Sure?" I asked

"A 100 percent. I'm all yours baby" he said with a crooked smile as he licked his lips.

I couldn't help the smile from creeping up my face.

"Really?" I asked

"Yeah. That means you are officially my girlfriend and I'm your boo" he said, giving me a wink.

Oh my

I have a boyfriend.

He didn't even ask me first.

I don't mind either ways.

The only thing I could do was hug him as tight as I could in excitement as I felt a certain kind of peace from the little label.

Derrick Osunde is my Boo

The Mysterious Malaysian Burger like they all call him is my boyfriend.

I woke up the next day, feeling a whole new level of refreshed.

Derrick and I slept on the same bed. We cuddled ourselves to sleep.

I love this feeling

I feel so at peace and excited about my future.

I just can't help but smile every time I think about the kiss, last night.

I'm still on the bed. My eyes on the ceiling as I involuntarily bite my lower lips with a smile.

Plus, Derrick told me he loved me.

We are now boyfriend and girlfriend.

I feel so excited

I have never had a boyfriend, I hope I make a good girlfriend and how the hell do I be a good girlfriend.

I would just work with the flow, I don't want to overthink this.

Derrick seems to be awake now as he moved and wrapped his hands around me.

Bringing me closer to his masculine body only to feel poked in my thigh region.

I don't want to start thinking about what poked me as he smiled at me with so much spark in his eyes.

"Hey baby" he said.

My heart fluttered.

"Hey..." I said, not knowing what pet name to give him.

He gave me a smile as he just kept looking at me.

I was beginning to feel weird about it, so I asked.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"It just feels good knowing you are mine"he replied and a blush crept my cheek

I couldn't help smiling too.

We took our bath, separately of course and dressed up for school.

Derrick said he would attend school today but he isn't putting on that ugly school uniform.

"But the school doesn't tolerate wearing casuals to class" I informed him

"I'm Derrick Osunde, they have no choice but to tolerate it" he said smugly.

Derrick seems to be the kind of guy who is full of himself or is that just an attitude that comes with having wealth?

I don't think I like that attitude.

I don't like rules getting broken for no reason and I prefer avoiding unnecessary drama.

Or perhaps I'm just overthinking things again.

Derrick and I drove in his black car to school. I don't know what the car is called. I should ask him

But it has L written at it's behind.

On arriving school, we stepped out of the car and the next thing I saw was a running Julian heading towards Derrick

She hugged him in her usual, legs wrapped on his waist as she said

"Baby, I have missed you"

Then, she kissed him.
