Together Forever

Ethan's POV

I wouldn't say I am not disappointed. I want to know what she actually feels for me and for heaven's sake, I want her to kiss me herself. I need her to confess the swirling emotions I can always see in her enticing eyes that she's trying to hide. I wanted a little more but the moment I look at her and see her face so sad like a baby failing to draw unicorns, a smile replaces the disappointment.

She is so cute. The first time I saw her, she seemed cold to me just like myself. But now that I know her well, I understand that coldness is just a barrier she puts around her but inwardly, she's an angel who can even pout like she's doing now.

I swear I never saw someone looking so damn cute when they pout.

I chuckle and kiss her forehead.

"It's ok. I will wait." I smile and pull her face to place on my shoulder. Relief washes over me when she hugs me back.

For the first time, she hugged me willingly. She didn't pull back when I touched her. She didn't try to stop me. It feels great.

I told her how I feel for her. And I don't regret it because that's just the truth. What scared me was how she would react. She didn't say anything but she didn't let me down either. I understand she needs time. And I am okay with no matter how much time she takes, as long as she's not going away from me, I am alright.

We sit there in each other's warm embrace as time passes but we are too oblivious to pay this time any attention for now. Time is important and doesn't wait for anyone but this moment is valueless to me, overcoming the worth of everything else. Who knows if I would ever have her this close again or not?

Her hands are wrapped around my neck while her head is slightly tilted, resting on my shoulder. Her hair is flowing over my hand that is around her back keeping her close and the feverish scent of the brown locks reaching my nose. A dead silence is enclosing the room but still, it feels so peaceful.

I never felt like this in anyone's embrace ever. The more we wait for something, our attraction towards it gets stronger. And when finally the thing is gained, it gives the feeling of conquering the world and that's what I'm feeling right now since she's my long yearned gem.

"So… we missed office today." She says, raising her head looking at me.

I budge my head, smirking, "Yeah. Your health is more important than work and don't worry, from now on, we will miss office quite often." I wink at her.

She narrows her eyes as she asks, confused, "Why? What will we do if we don't go to the office?"

"Uhm…" I point at us as I say haughtily, "The thing we're doing now."

She gets my hint and looks down embarrassed and then I see something on her face that I didn't see ever. A slightly rosy tinting glow appears on her cheeks under her big magical eyes and slowly spreads across her white skin, making her look the most beautiful human being I have ever seen. She's blushing. I made her blush for the first time.

God. That blush is divine.

If she looks beautiful all the time, now with that blush and those locks of brown hair falling across her face, she's looking…speechless.

Looking down at her hands for some time, she looks up with a crease on her forehead.

"Ethan?" She calls me in a confused tone.

"Yeah?"

"You're blushing."
