Se connecterCHAPTER 7
Her eyes bulged open, staring right back at him, she replied.
"What did you just say? I, I should go on a date with you?"
To say she was stunned was an understatement, this was the first time a boy, an handsome one at that and one she really liked was asking her out, she was dumbfounded and tempted to accept his request immediately, but something in her compelled her to hold back and give him a tough time.
Looking up shyly, she opened her lips to say something when he countered her by raising his large strong hands up in a bid to silence her.
"Yes, and i am not taking no for an answer, love." he said again cutting her off unexpectedly.
"And what if I say no, yes I do not want to go on a date with you, what are you going to do about it, ayyyy?"
**********
Christian's heart leaped a notch when she said no, did he hear her correctly, she had to be joking, cause he was convinced she also felt this magnetic pull of attraction to each other, which he also felt.
She couldn't deny the fact that there was a spark whenever she saw him, he could feel it, he knew she felt it too.
Left with no options whatsoever, and not wanting to say this but having no other options, he dropped the bombshell in answer to her question earlier.
"I will have no option than to reconsider your friend's employment, mind you that she is not qualified." He said not putting into her mind her reaction to what he had said.
And true to his thoughts, her reaction to what he said was unexpected, as she began to laugh so hard, it cracked his ribs up too.
What did she take him for, a clown that made people laugh or a comedian?
He had a mean temper, as he was quick to get angered, not wanting her to be the cause of a temper now, he frowned and asked-
"What's so funny, eh?"
"Nothing, nothing." She replied while using her hands to cover her lush lips.
"Nothing, and you are throwing a fit laughing, you just hurt my feelings, love, or is my manner of approach so poor?" he asked putting on a serious face.
Crinkling her eyebrows in amusement she started to speak "I'm just laughing at how how pathetic you are, like seriously, so you had it in mind all along to give my friend this job, so you could use it against me or even blackmail me right?, and here I was thinking I finally had someone, who would tell me that he or she would do something for me just as you said earlier on, and actually mean it, break my heart, tchhhhh. That's just so crude." she replied while straightening her composure and smiling proudly.
Damn it, she was so fine, even her laughter and mischievous attitude was enough to cool his temper down.
"You could have outright asked me out, and I wouldn't have minded accepting your offer, cause to be sincerely honest, I do want to go on a date with you, like I would love to, but using this as an excellent opportunity to do so, just does not sit well with me." she said again and he blinked twice.
"Okay I get you, I'm sorry so how do I go about this." he muttered.
Propping his chin on his arms, he mimicked a babyish look deciding to look cute, and began talking.
"Mmmmn, Sara love, please would you mind going out in a date with me, i promise you would have a lovely time."
*********
Sara smiled looking up at the most adorable boy in front of her, asking her out in such a sweet way, she was lost and didn't even know when she muttered.
"Yes, Christian, yes I would surely go on a date with you."
CHAPTER 22They finally landed on the sea shore, the imminent storm approaching told them that they had to get home early or else they would be soaked in the beach.Guiding Sara down from the engine boat, Christian carefully removed her helmet and his own too, placing them carefully on the boat, he took her hands and led her to a nearby tent on the beach."What's going to happen to the boat, are you going to just keep it there?" She asked him looking back at the sea longingly."I already told the boat lender to come pick it up at this exact spot, nothing's going to happen to it love, don't you worry." He replied and continued dragging her eagerly to the tent, so the rain won't affect them.The weather had other plans for them though, no sooner had they reached the tent the clouds opened and they were blasted wi
CHAPTER 21Christian couldn't stop kissing her, the feel of her lips on his was an unmatched experience, he couldn't describe it.Coaxing her gently, feeling her stiff around him, he wrapped his hands around her neck, softly kneading them and bit her lips gently, the action made her gasp in surprise and pleasure and he used the opportunity to slide his tongue in.He was kissing those pert rosebud lips of hers, so succulent and soft, Christian hummed in satisfaction.Drawing her closer, he removed his lips from here gently so he could see her reaction, but was stunned when she agressively wound her arms around his neck also and kissed him passionately to.********Sara couldn't believe she was kissing him back more fiercely and enthusiastic than before, she couldn't explain what she had felt ever since he had placed his lips on hers.
CHAPTER 20"So what do you want to know about me?" asked Christian."I want to know everything about you, your parents too, your siblings, how you work in a construction site and at the store at the same time, just simple basic things about you also the place you school, and other important stuffs I guess." Sara said feeling more relaxed now that she had told him everything about her and he had not condemned or rejected her.Ed Sheeran's perfect kept playing in the background of the restaurant making the atmosphere more romantic, friendly and soothing.Christian sipped more of his wine and then placed the glass on the dinner table, carefully wiping his lips with the napkin placed for them, he cleared his throat and said-"I'll surely tell you everything about myself okay. Let's not rush into all these talks headfirst, so let
Sara could not believe her ears as she sat at the dimly candle lit table, he wanted to be her everything if only she could give him a chance, she was stunned, she still could not believe her ears.He had accepted her, he did not flinch when she had told him she was an orphan, he had not looked surprised, angry or shocked, he had gently taken her hand in his, drawn little circles all over her fingers and had asked her to be his.Dumbfounded she blinked twice, shaked her head a little so as not to draw attention to herself from onlookers nearby and cleared her throat so she could say something."Sara love, did you hear what I just said?" he asked her slowly, his voice wavering as if he was scared of how she was going to react.Staring straight at him, she answered "I heard you perfectly well, I just...." trailing off she was lost for words, she di
CHAPTER 18The waiter brought their meal for the night, Sara had ordered some grilled chicken, mushrooms, rigatoni, roasted pepper cream alongside pasta dipped in red tomato sauce, Christian had chosen the same with her and they had ordered a bottle of wine.Sara looked around her, the Italian restaurant Christian had brought her to was a nice one, the candle lit atmosphere making everywhere look enchanting, lovers talking, enjoying their meal, taking pictures, kissing, and doing all sort of things the place was definitely a couple's favorite.With the meal placed before her, she didn't know where to start from. The food she had ordered was much, and she was embarrassed at not being able to finish the meal."What's wrong Sara?" he asked her, and she nodded her head indicating nothing was wrong but he persisted."Tell me the
CHAPTER 17Sara stood under the cherry blossom tree, the chilly atmosphere bringing goosebumps all over her skin, the cool breeze whipped through her curly hair, working its way and successfully making the packed bun look greasly.Becoming frustrated at having to wait for Christian for so long, she wanked of the ribbon and the tight bun fell down her back in a pile of long tresses.***********Christian saw her, he saw the angel of his dreams, she was so pretty under the cherry blossom tree, her hair so long and curly was currently being whipped different ways by the wind.The atmosphere was so cool, he had come late he knew that, he had been held by traffic and had gotten a sunflower and some chocolates (her favorite, as Ariel had told him) on his way to her, to apologise.Revving his bike fas
