Chapter 32: IG official

Did he just kiss me?

He did right?

I am not imagining it? Provided that it was just for a second but he did.

I WAS sleepy before but I am awake now.

Wide eyed I look at Gideon. I was trying to form some words but he leans down again and kiss me.

Tsup.

"Gid-"

Tsup. Another kiss.

"What ar-"

Yep you guessed it he kiss me again.

When he was leaning again I push his face away from me.

I sit up properly and face him. His face looks ridiculous like I kick his puppy.

"You don't like it?" The heck? Of course I do! I am not THAT crazy!

And what's with that tone? I've never heard him use that tone to me he sounds like a child who's going to cry.

Thankfully we arrive at his house and I remove my seatbelt. He is still sitting and staring at me with his teary eyes or is the light in the car just playing with my eyes? Maybe. Gideon teary eyed? Impossible.

I unbuckle his seatbelt and go around the car.

To his employees shock I drag him to our room. Yes OUR room. I already consider this house as my home.

I let him sit on the bed and he is looking at his hands now.

"Gideon look at me."

No response.

Tsk.

To his surprise I sat on his lap and grab his face between my hands and looks at him straight in the eyes.

Greyish blue to brown.

I kiss him. Just a peck.

He is wide eyed. Then I did not give him time to retort I kiss him in the lips again and again and again.

"Does that answer your question?"

He nodded.

He started to lean again but I push his face away.

"What love! I thought you like it." He protested.

"I do! but you know this is my first kiss and I am unexperience so we should slow down. I don't want to embarass myself when it turns out I am a bad kisser.

"Never."

I need to research on this. I'll go to the library on monday after work. I hope there is a book titled Kissing for dummies.

Maybe I'll ask the 3 musketeers "3M" for short. yep. I gave a nickname to Scott, Erick and Mark.

I don't want to embarass myself. I want to be ready when we go to the next stage of our relationship.

What is the next stage? We already hug, hold hands, kiss and what is next? I'll include it in my research too.

I kiss his cheeks and then get up to take a shower because I got exhausted with our date.

"Where are you going?"

"Getting ready for bed. You should too."

After showering I wear another set of my silky PJ's and went to the bed immediately.

This day was so fun but really tiring.

Sunday. I hate this day. You know why? Because the next day is monday.

I gotta work again.

Sigh.

Today I decided to go to my apartment to get my things. Not all. Just the important ones.

I dress casually a plain black hoodie courtesy of Gideon's closet and I partnered it with leggings.

Gideon is still sleeping. It is a miracle that I successfully untangle myself from his limbs without waking him up.

I went out of the house without anyone noticing me.

I wave goodbye at the guard at the gate. He just nods at me.

I walk for at least 25 minutes before I saw civilization. No kidding the area where Gideon lives is a little bit secluded. Heck 10 minutes of that is just walking past his property.

I call a cab and ask him to to take me to the nearest subway station. Thank God my burns are healed already I need to thank Dr. Congee next time.

I arrive at my apartment at exactly 8:45am. 45 minutes of travel time it is still early but I am tired already. No breakfast yet.

I went to the Apartment and it is unusual that the door is unlock. I opened it and what I witness shocks me.

Red cups everywhere. I am astonish that more than 10 people fit in this place.

I walk slowly so I will not step the bodies in the different state of undress lying on the floor.

I opened my room and there are two naked people on my bed.

Eew.

I open my closet and and just get my stash of money. I open the wrapper and thankfully the money is still there.

I place it inside my bra.

I went out of my room and leave the apartment completely.

I am not naive as Scarlet might think. I realize from Gideon's statement a few weeks ago that her boyfriend and possibly her is using illegal substance.

Even if she doesn't take it she still tolerated her boyfriend in using. She is enabling him.

I still consider her as a friend but she needs to fix her life first and I am still in the processing of fixing myself too.

Hopefully we will reunite in the near future.

I look at my apartment door one last time and went down to go back to Gideon's house. I am sure he is awake now.

I step out of the building and well well well! What do we have here.

A familiar black SUV was in front of the building and a gorgeous man is now coming out of the car.

I skip towards him.

"You're awake!"

In response he cross his arm to his chest and looks down at me.

I look up at him and as I roam my eyes in his sunglasses covered face. I concluded that he is a little bit mad.

He is wearing a black shirt and pants partnered with black boots. What a badbum look.

He opened the car door and I entered the car. He sat down beside me buckled my seatbelt for me then proceeded to ignored me.

I sat side ways and looks at him.

"Are you mad?"

Still not talking.

I shake his shoulder but still he is not paying attention.

I give up.

What should I do? I know why he got mad. I did not inform him that I am leaving for a while.

A bright idea comes to my mind.

I remove my seatbelt and

I peer between the seats of the two MIB and whisper to them my plan. They just nodded.

I look at Gideon who is now looking at his phone. I snatch his phone from his hand and throws it in front which one of the MIB catches flawlessly.

Since my seatbelt is already remove I stand up from my seat and sit on Gideon's lap. I am straddling him which is so intimate but this is needed.

I remove his annoying sunglasses and stare at his eyes. I can see that he is surprise by my moves.

I cup his face and bend his head down so I can reach him.

I kiss his forehead and then look at his reaction.

I kiss his cheeks nose, basically his whole face. Each time I will check his expression. I kiss his lips like a mama bird feeding her babies.

Bad analogy Ella stop it.

Whatever.

I kiss his lips repeatedly but still he is still stoic.

So I use my secret weapon. Even if I am a virgin in every sense of the word I am aware on how to do these seduction things. Highschool can teach you a lot of things especially hallways. Highschool couples littered my old school. They did some things that will probably scars me for life but It opened my eyes.

I kiss his neck.

I smirk when I heard his breath hitch.

Ha! Gotcha!

I kiss below his ear for good measure.

"I am sorry. Please forgive me."

I attempt to kiss his neck again but he stops me.

"Ok! Ok! I forgive you love."

SUCCESS! Mission completed.

Take note he called me Love so it means he is not mad anymore.

Since my mission is done I stand up from his lap or rather attempted to stand up from his lap.

"Where are you going?"

"Uhm. Going back to my seat?"

He smiles mischievously.

It is the first time I saw him smile like that and I became afraid.

VERY AFRAID.

"No Love. You'll stay right here on my lap until we reach our destination."

"Bu-But it is dangerous you know to sit in a moving car without any harness and- think Ella Think!- it is a violation if I am not wearing seatbelt. Mr. Police will arrest all of us!"

"Let them try Love. Let them try."

I grumble my protest but he still keep us in the same position. After a while we heard my stomach grumbles.

He 'tsk' and whisper "Just 5 minutes love."

5 minutes of what?

We stop in front of an unknown building.

MIB openened our door and Gideon went out with me still attach to him. Go figure.

This unknown building is a 5 star hotel. Thank God he allow me to walk and not just carry me wherever he plan to go. Gideon intertwine our hands and we went inside the hotel.

After passing many onlookers we arrive to a massive room.

My eyes automatically zooms at the buffet table. I remove my hand from Gideon's grasp without thinking and went towards the buffet.

I got one white plate from the stack on the side and open each dome.

I put some scrambled eggs, then this so called cornedbeef, 3 sausages then when I saw some garlic bread but my plate is full already.

Another plate appears on my side and it is carried by Gideon.

"What do you want love?"

"Garlic bread please." He nodded and proceeded to get the whole basket.

"Love why don't you hand that plate to the server so she can put it in our table."

A female server automatically materialize beside me. I hand my plate reluctantly.

No one's gonna take your food Ella.

Gideon place various fruits on the other plate. I though it is enough already but when we reach the end of the buffet there is a whole serving of fried rice.

I am a sucker for carbs mainly rice.

My eyes widen and I saw Gideon in my peripheral vision smirks.

Bless his heart he got another plate and put heaps of rice on it. It is good for 3-4 person.

We went back to our table and we have 4 plates in total 3 plate is for me.

Don't judge me okay. Food is life.

We sat down side by side then Gideon started to serve me portions of each food.

"Tell me love if you want more okay?" I nodded. My eyes are already focus on the scrambled egg that he was scooping.

As soon as he finish placing the food in my plate I pounce.

I look like a person who starve for months every time I eat.

Sometimes I get embarass especially in front of Gideon but he told me that he love seeing me eat. His opinion only matters so fudge other people.

Right now he is gazing at me with a fond smile on his lips.

"You'll fall for me if you keep staring at me like that."

"I already did."

Do you think that statement will stop me from devouring my food? Nope. Nothing will come between me and my food even the declaration of Gideon's undying love for me.

I'm gonna process that later. Preferrably after I eat.

"Eat Gideon and stop staring!"

"I love watching you eat Love."

I roll my eyes at him.

As usual we finish all the food.

I am so full.

That's what she says.

Fudge? Where did that come from? I swear I think I have schizophrenia. I keep arguing to myself and my other self is pervert and always contradicting or dissing me.

Why would I agree with you?

See?

I rest for a while after eating all this delicious meal. Gideon was doing something in his phone.

I peer at him and saw that my picture was plastered on his phone by the way it was an unflattering one.

I look like I just woke up my fave is bloated and I was staring into I don't know where. I have this blank look on my face.

"What the fudge Gideon!"

"You look beautiful in these shot Love."

"Beautiful? Are you blind?"

"You're always beautiful love. In fact I posted it on my IG account."

IG? what's that? He saw the baffled look on my face.

"Instagram love. It is a social network where you post pictures so that my followers can see it."

He open his profile and he has

30Million followers.

He is a celebrity?

"So many followers. Why?"

"Sue me. I don't know also."

"Because you are handsome and people are curious about you."

"Maybe." He shrugged his shoulders.

His recent post is my horrendous face and it has a caption.

"Waking up beside this beautiful woman is one of the highlights of my day"

Uhmm. Okay. No comment.

It has 2 million likes already and he posted it 30 minutes ago!

Is that why people are staring at us when we entered the hotel?

Ella even before people are already staring at you.

Yeah that's true.

"I thought you like your privacy?" I ask him.

"I do love but on only on IG they can get pictures of me. Paparazzi has no chance of taking my pictures. My pictures are release if I permitted it and I personally posted the pictures I like in IG."

Now I understand.

Wait.

He posted my pictures which is fine by me. I just don't like that he chose an unflattering photos of me.

What are the chances that Mark and Eric can see his post?

A big chance.

H-E double hockey stick!!
