《Cupid's Arrow ✔》Chapter 30

Advertisement

Chase looked at me as if I'm some kind of an angel. His eyes soften and a small smile playing on his lips. He looks at me in awe. I flushed, ducking my head down to cover my face with my hair.

"You look beautiful." He said, smiling softly. I smiled at him shyly.

"Thanks." I muttered.

A throat cleared from beside me. We look at Liam who was smirking at us, but kept a stern look on his face. "I presume we have something to discuss." He said, looking pointly at Chase.

Chase shifted uncomfortably and nodded his head. "Sure."

"Liam," I began, but he didn't let me finish. He shook his head and pointed towards the kitchen. Chase followed him to the kitchen, giving me smile on the way. When he was out of sight, I sighed. Now, what does Liam want? I hope he doesn't scare him away. To think about it, I don't think Chase will let that happen.

After 10 minutes, both of them came out. Both had a different expression. I thought Chase will have a grim look while Liam will smile triumphantly. But what I saw was completely opposite. Chase was smiling triumphantly while Liam had a grim expression. This is confusing.

"What happened?" I asked both of them, standing up.

"Nothing," Liam grumbled. Okay..?

"Let's go, then." Chase offered me his hands which I happily took. I heard Liam curse under his breath.

"Language." I scolded.

"Yes, ma'am." He saluted, walking upstairs. "Don't do anything I won't like. If...use protection. I don't want to be an uncle yet."

My face went from happy to horror. My face felt so hot that you could fry an egg on it. My eyes wide and mouth ajar open. He did not just say that.

"Liam." I shouted. Chase chuckles from beside me. The moment he saw my face, he burst laughing.

"Don't worry. Our kids will have good looks like me." He tucked his collar upward, giving me a smirk and a wink.

I punched his arm and walked ahead of him, completely ignoring him. "I'm not going to talk to you the whole evening."

"Oh! Come on, Chloe. I was kidding." He trailed behind me.

"You shouldn't say anything like that," I snapped.

"Okay, fine. I'm sorry." He grabbed my arm and turned towards him. "The kids can have your looks."

I threw him a murderous look and yanked my arm out of his grasp. "I don't want to go anywhere with you."

Once again, he grabbed my hands and forced me into the car. "Like I'm giving you any choice." He snorted. The door closed behind him while he rounded the car and got in the driver's seat. I huff and crossed my arms, glaring out of the window. "Oh come on." He glanced at me. "I want this to be perfect."

"You should have thought about that before making sly comments," I snapped.

"But it's fun to see you all worked up."

"Fine." I said. He smiled at me. "Go to hell." His smile dropped. He stopped the car at the red light and turned to me. I tried to ignore him, but his stare was too intense. I look back at him to see that he was pouting like a child.

The wheel in his head was turning. One glance at his eyes and I know he was thinking something mischief. His eyes had that glint. I narrowed my eyes at him. He smirked at me, leaning closer. I leaned back, so I could create some distance between us.

"What are you doing?" I asked, cautiously.

His smirked widened. He grabbed the back of my neck and pulled me closer. I could feel his hot breath on my face. I couldn't move my eyes from him as he held me captive.

"Did I tell you how beautiful you look?" He asked huskily. My breath got caught in my throat and I swallowed hard.

Before I could say or do anything, I felt his lips on mine. My lips moved with his in sync. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him close. My fingers gripping the back of his hair. I played with his hair while he pulled me close by my waist. He rubbed circle on my waist as I pulled his hair around my finger, gripping while kissing him with everything I can. He growled lowly in my mouth. I smiled through the kiss, satisfied that I affected him. I don't think he liked it because his hand trailed down from my waist to my thigh. I gasped. He took advantage of that, as he slipped his tongue in my mouth. I moaned as his tongue meets mine.

Suddenly, he pulled away as I caught my breath. "I'll always affect you more. Don't challenge me." He whispered. I shudder at his voice– husky and breathless. "I hope you forgive me. I want to make it special."

I blushed and nodded. He wants to make it special. He's trying his best to make it perfect. I smiled as heat washed through my body. I touched my swollen lips from the previous kiss. He chuckled and began moving as the light turned green. "Uh.."

"You'll have that kiss more often, sweetheart." He said, grinning. I blushed yet again from his words. Damn, this boy affects me more than periods does. All the girls know how it feels to have our time of month.

Soon we reached a garden entrance. There was a narrow path that follows inside. Either side of path was covered in small trees and bushes. Chase took my hand and we went through the path. The trees on the side was covered with lights– beautiful, colorful lights. We walked through it as I watch in awe. The excitement in my heart was trying to burst open. He did this all for me. He makes me feel so special. As soon as we came to the end of the path, I couldn't believe what I saw.

There were few trees spread around near a table. The trees and my surrounding were covered with lights, all around. Small lights lightening the garden. The whole garden seems to be alive. It was so beautiful that my eyes would not tear away from the scene. My heart melts at the sight. Chase did this for me.

There was a table at the center of the garden. The table was in a white gazebo type place. It was covered with white cloth along with pink designing cloth on it. Two chair with a small vase like flower in between us. There were lights hanging around and slow music playing in the background.

A hand took hold of my own, squeezing it. I looked at our intertwine hand and back at Chase. A small smile playing on my lips. "It's so beautiful."

"You like it?"

"No," I shook my head. "I love it." I said, looking at him. He grinned ear to ear, happy with my answer.

"I'm happy you do." He kissed my cheeks and pulled me forward. "May I have this dance?" I nodded as we headed little towards our table. "Music." He said loudly, like ordering someone.

"Is there anyone else other than us?" I asked, confuse.

"You'll see." Was his only reply.

I heard some shuffling from behind. I turned around to see, Alec and Leah standing near the music player, grinning at us. I noticed that they were standing too close to each other, hands intertwined. My jaws dropped to the ground. They are together. They so are together. I'll have a talk with them later. For now, I just want to focus my attention on the person standing in front of me, pulling me close to him. I looked at him in eyes. That's when everything cleared in my head. I love him. I love Chase.

The music suddenly began, pulling me out of my thoughts.

Even though the first line is from the girl, Chase held his hand forwards for me to take.

Take my hand, take a breath

Pull me close and take one step

Keep your eyes locked on mine,

And let the music be your guide.

Chase pulled me close to him, staring down at me. We began swaying along with the music. When the chorus started, Chase twirled me around and pulled me flush to his chest.

It's like catching lightning the chances of finding someone like you

It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do

And with every step together, we just keep on getting better

So can I have this dance (can I have this dance)

Can I have this dance.

We continued dancing till the end of the song. I was dazed by just looking in his eyes. When the song ended, neither of us moved. I had a small smile on my face while Chase had a look of determination on his face. It confused me. Is there anything he wants to say?

"Chloe," he began. "I-I.." He was cut off, when someone cleared their throat. I snapped my head towards the source of disturbance, clearly annoyed. He was going to say something. And I knew it was important.

When I looked who cleared the throat, again, my jaws dropped. Ryan stood near the table, grinning like an idiot. Chase sighed and pulled me towards the table. We sat in front of each other while Ryan went back somewhere. He came back with our food. You won't believe what it was. It was my favorite white sauce pasta.

My face instantly lit up. A grin spread on my face. It's been so long since I had pasta. I glanced up at Chase to see him smiling at me.

"I made this, you know." He said. I raised an eyebrow at him.

"You did?"

He nodded his head. "Yeah. I know you love pasta so.."

I grinned at him. I wanted to hug him, but then thought against it. Ryan placed the pasta in front of us and gave us sneaky smile.

"If you want anything else just call me." Ryan said.

Laura came from behind, two drinks in her hand. "Me too." She smiled and winked at me. I blushed red, nodding. Ryan then sneaked an arm around her waist, smirking. I saw Laura blush, but didn't complain. Are they together too?

As they went, I turned my attention back at Chase. We talked and ate. Laughing and throwing playful jokes at each other, passing sassy comments and going red in face from my side. I have to agree, this is the best date ever. When we finished eating, I asked, "Now what..?"

He smirked at me and pulled me up. Then he clicked his fingers up. The lights went off.

"Relax. I have surprise for you," Chase whispered from behind. I turned around to face him, realizing how close he was standing. I stared at him and leaned a bit close to him. But before our lips could touch, I saw something unusual. There was light coming from my left side. I turned my head to see what it was when I realized, what exactly it is.

Small flies with yellow lights everywhere. It means.

Fireflies.

I jumped up and down in excitement. I ran towards them and tried to catch them.

I circled around them, looking at each of them. The grin not leaving my face for a minute. I love fireflies.

I turned and saw Chase standing where I left him. I beckoned him to come here. He shakes his hand, but I run towards him and pulled him. I dragged him behind me. Again, I reached for a firefly, but couldn't catch it. I felt Chase come behind me and held his hands out and a firefly came and sat on his palm. I pouted at how unfair the firefly was.

I looked behind at him for a few seconds and back at the fly. Then suddenly, the fly started flying again. I saw it fly with a smile with Chase behind me. I circled around the fireflies, again.

Chase came from behind me and turned me to face him. He snaked his arms around my waist and pulled me flush towards him. I placed my hands on his chest.

"I want to tell you something." He said lowly, staring at me.

"What?"

"I know we haven't known each other long. I mean we meet in New York, but didn't know each other and never expected to meet again. But here we are, together on a date. Now I have known you for nearly a year. Maybe, it's a long time, maybe not. But I really like you. And I want to know you more. I know you like chocolate. Your favorite movie is Twilight saga. You also love pasta. I know more than you think. You don't like people talking about you. You don't like attention. You keep your emotions to yourself. You don't want to hurt people by telling your problem." He said. I stared at him mouth hung open. How...how? This is not.. "Can't wrap your head around it?"

"No." I whispered.

He smiled. "Yeah. I know more than you think," he placed his hands on my cheeks. He leaned closer and whispered those words which I never thought I'll hear. "I Love You."

Before I could response, he turned me around, yet again. There was firework up around. I saw Ashley and Jason working with more fireworks. Chase came behind me and asked,

"Chloe. Will you be my girlfriend?"
