“Shhh…Viel,” I whispered…
He looks like a very softie beast while he’s asleep, I can’t help but trace my fingers on his very defined jaw that looks so hot whenever he clenches It.
Damn…
I tried to wake him up again by lightly tapping his cheek, but I got no response nor movements from him. Absentmindedly, I let out a heartily laugh… It seems like I could only rule him whenever as slept but when he was conscious then, no way that would happen I guess…
“Viel, hey…wake up,” I softly whispered while staring at him and fingers run to his thick brows, down to his eyes to his nose…and to his lips, thin, red, and tempting lips.
He’s asleep KC! In case you forget…
The jokey voice lingers in my head.
“Hmm,”
I smiled when I heard him hmmed, he pursed his lips and he looks so cute and hot by doing that, his eyes were still closed as if no one could disturb his peaceful sleep right now.
I stared at him and a pang of guilt crawled on my chest, he looks exhausted and I hate myself for not noticing that in the first place. It was because I was busy missing and fantasizing about him mentally and he was oblivious about that. I didn’t try to wake him up again, I don’t want to disturb him, I will just watch him sleeping like a baby here on my side.
I closed my eyes tightly… I’m attracted to him---Oh, cut that, I think I’m falling. This is not good
This would be not a very nice feeling if ever he’ll know about it and doesn’t feel the same.
“Tss, don’t overthink Karina!” I scolded myself. “just let it be, just see…” I continued whispering to myself. Well, sometimes we could calm our rebellious thoughts by just talking to ourselves.
I was busy caressing Viel’s cheek, I leaned even closer until our faces were just inches away, and with that position when the door swung open without any knock.
“God gracious!” She hysterically exclaimed while her eyes widens looking at me and at this man beside me who was sleeping peacefully,
Immediately sit up straight as I gave her a cute smile…
She was still gapping while advancing a step toward the bed.
“What was that huh? Cassidy?!” She narrowed her eyes at me and lift her brows.
“What?” I asked innocently while giving her the I-don’t-know-what you are talking about look.
She rolled her eyes at me.
“Don’t me, Cassy… you’re my daughter and you can’t to me,” She stated undoubtedly.
“…And you… om my goodness, Kissed him?!” She asked with a wide gaze while glancing at sleeping, Viel.
“What the? Of course not…! I didn’t!” I defended and shook my head repeatedly, goodness! She just assumed right away just because we were inches away when she entered the room?!
Oh? as if You don’t have a plan to kiss him earlier then?
I pursed my lips with my thoughts, well… slightly, I was tempted but at least it didn’t happen! Sadly.
“Uh-huh? “My mom raised her brows at me saying ‘as if she’ll believe that crap’
“Oh, whatever mom,” I snorted.
“Hmm, I thought you wanted to have a brother, Cassidy? At least someone to treat like one?” She grinned.
I sighed. She’s still pushing it, I like Viel but hell, I won’t admit that to her of course, she’s a bit nosy so…
“We’re friends, mom,” I answered shortly.
She chuckled while examining my face.
“My, my, beautiful daughter,” She chanted softly followed by her chuckles.
Oh, it looks like my workaholic mother is having a good time, she’s in a good mood right now.
“By the way, you haven’t had a boyfriend, right sweetheart?... I mean It’s not that you have to have one, you’re young for that,” She stated and the topic just came from nowhere. Why are we talking about this anyway?
I shook my head as an answer,
“How about at your school?” She asked languidly,
“Hmm,” I paused.
Well, there’s so many guys in my school who’s showing me a motives that they want to persue me, I can say that he have the looks and wealth but… I don’t want to pay attention with that, I’m not interested. I’m a carefree one, and I don’t easily bored as long as I am with Crisha, we have a lot in our minds if ever we’re boring…
‘’ I don’t like guys my age, mom.” I answered lethargically.
All of the sudden, my mother just let out a heartily laugh and shook her head as if she just figured out something…
“Hmm, you don’t like guys your age? Why?” She asked interestedly.
I frowned, while looking at her, we seldom talks about this kind of stuffs because I know she doesn’t have time time for these, it’s like it doesn’t worth her time.
But right now, she looks… attentive?
And also, only the three of us here, I and her and Viel.
“Well, I want a mature one, isn’t that amazing?” I said and wiggled my brows at her.
Girls should be picky sometimes and there’s nothing wrong with that, we have the right to be choosy and we have our sets standard. We shouldn’t settle for less… well, I think girls have their different perception and understanding about ‘never settle for less,’ In my case, I won’t settle for someone if I don’t really like them, if I’m not comfortable with them and if they’re not the one my heart wish to have. If I did, then it means, I settled for less.
“Oh, yeah?” My mother looked at me.
“I want older than me, Mom.” I answered and I restrained myself glancing at Viel…
“Sweetheart, It’s not always about the age,’’ She stated and paused.
“It’s depend on the experienced sometimes,” She added…
“Well, I think so…” I responded lazily.
“There are youngsters out there who can preach someone older than them, It’s because they have been already in a hard and rough situation…” She stated.
She was right.
“But anyways, you like someone… ahead of… you huh?” She slowly uttered that while looking at me and afterward, it trailed down to Viel.
My cheeks heated up. I can sense that she has already a hint whom I like.
‘’Yeah, and let’s not open that topic, mom.” I lazily said as I rubbed the tip of my nose.
“If you say so, Melinda was still on the Kitchen, she’s preparing something for snacks but I think…” She paused and looked at this sleeping adorable man here snoring lowly, She shrugged.” Just don’t wake him up, he must be tired.” She stated.
I nodded…
One of these days, I’ll talk to them about Shawn…
Shawn is a good guy, and he was not at fault so I will talk to my parents to bring him back, he’s also a to me and I am not as heartless as f**k to not defending him, because it was really my fault.
