Chapter 40: Chapter 40

PRINCE ADRIAN

I was on my way to see Blue, last night's event still rolled in my eyes.

But I tried to kick it off, knowing it wasn't real

I wanted to tell Blue how much i love her so I ordered a diamond studded necklace for her.

She'll love it

I kept smiling to myself

I reached the beachhouse and parked.

Blue might have seen me coming in cause she ran to meet me when I stepped out of the car.

She hugged me and I must say, that hug was warm. It took me time to unlock

Blue : good morning

Me: my angel, how was your night?

Blue : so cool.

I smiled and kissed her cheek.

She was wearing a yellow shirt and black trousers.

Me: how's the moving in going

Blue : we're through

I held her hand as we walked inside.

We met her mother

Me: good morning ma'am

Nina : ohh, good morning my handsome prince. How are you

Me: I'm fine ma

Nina: come have breakfast with us.

Blue went behind me and began to push me to the dinning, playfully.

I laughed

We sat down and her mom served us.

Cakes and milk

Different types of cakes

I tasted them and wow, they were so good

Blue : my mother is so good at baking

Me: yeah, she's perfect. She could be a boss you know

She didn't hear me

Her mother came to sit down and I proposed something to her

Me: ma'am, I'm thinking of opening a bakery here in Aberdeen and I'll like you to help me see it through

Nina: huh, me?

Me: yes, I mean, you're really good at it. I want you to be the director

Her jaw dropped

Blue : do you mean it

Me: yes I do

I took my glass of milk and gulped down half of it.

I could see Blue smiling and staring at me.

When I dropped my glass, she removed her face and looked at her mother's face

Me: so what do you say

Nina : Blue and I will talk about it later.

I smiled as I saw Blue staring at me again.

Her mother went to the kitchen and I turned to her.

That's when I saw the bracelet

Me: what? I thought you left this in my house yesterday.

She looked at her hand

Blue : no I didn't. It's been with me

Me: I thought I saw it glow then disappear

Blue : huh? Are you okay? Did you drink last night?

She used that hand to hold my nose

I laughed and removed her hand.

I held it and she smiled.

She looked at our hands and her gaze moved to the whole of my body

Her face turned dreamy

I removed my hand and continued to eat.

I could still sense her eyes all over me.

I smiled inwardly

And when the smile was about showing physically, I took up my cup and drank from it while smiling so she wouldn't notice.

I know what I'm doing to her

I put a lot of effort into making myself look good today.

I now look like the boy of my age.

I know I look great today.

Let me just allow her to soak it in

BLUE

Gosh

Is this Adrian

He looks so different and young

He looks like a high school popstar.

His hair was well styled

And he was wearing a red with stripes long sleeve.

His trousers were black with chains around the pockets

He had a band around his wrist.

Gosh he's looking like an idol

He's so handsome

I can't stop staring

If he dresses like this everyday, he'll be every girl's prayer point

I was still staring at him when he turned to me

Adrian : do you like what you see?

I was taken aback

Me: huh

I turned to my food

Adrian : do you like what you see?

I smiled

Me: what? I didn't see anything

He smirked

Adrian : okay. But I love what I see

Me: the food right?

He laughed and looked at me

Adrian : I wanna take you somewhere

Me: where

Adrian : somewhere around the beach

Me: okay

Mother came back all dressed up for work

Mother : I'll be off now, take care dearies

She pecked me and I smiled.

She tapped Adrian's shoulder and left

Immediately she left Adrian stood up

Me: are you going somewhere

Adrian : no, I just want to have a good view of your face.

I smiled and finished my last cake.

Me: just help me clear the dishes, your highness

Adrian : hahaha, your wish is my command my queen

My heart dropped to my feet and I stood motionless.

What's happening to me?

Whenever he acts like this, I get this weird feeling

I saw him moving behind me.

I tried to turn but his hands brushed through my waist and he held me and kept his chin on my shoulder

I didn't know what to do

Adrian : I want to tell you something really special today

Me: what

He left me and took the plates

Adrian : later

We took the dishes to the kitchen and washed them

I was surprised at Adrian, he's not a lazy prince at all.

After all that, I went to shower up then came out with the red dress he got me.

He came with those things I forgot and I decided to wear the dress.

My hair was let loose and it was covering my weird birthmark.

I wore my shoes and came downstairs

Adrian : wow, color match

I laughed

I wore it because the shirt he wore was red

He came closer to me and pecked my forehead.

My mind went far

We might make a great couple

I laughed inwardly and he held my hand.

We went out of the house and went to the back yard.

Just a few walks from the house was the ocean.

The breeze was blowing my hair and his hair about.

It was really cool.

We talked and laughed as he led me to a place.

We soon got there, it was empty.

Just us

The forest was nearby and birds were singing.

The water there was so blue, it was different from the other beaches

Me: how did you find here

He smirked

I began to run around, jumping and dancing in the water.

I was laughing and shouting

He put his hands in his pocket and smiled

I remembered that he said he was going to tell me something

I moved to him

Me: you said, you were going to tell me something

Adrian : yeah, first turn and look towards the water

I turned to look at where he pointed to.

Just then, his left hand encircled me and the right one was in front of me.

Me: what

He opened the hand and revealed a sparkling necklace with tiny diamonds in it.

I gasped

Me: wow

Adrian : do you like it?

Me: I love it, it's beautiful

He smiled and used both hands to spread it.

It was really beautiful

He wore it for me and I smiled.

He turned me around to face him

Me: thank you so much Adrian

He didn't reply me

He just kept looking at my face

He wasn't smiling

Neither was he frowning

I wanted to ask what was wrong when I heard words that struck me like thunder

Adrian : I love you

My mouth opened

Did I hear well?

Me: huh

Adrian : Blue, I love you

My heart stopped beating and everything stopped working.

They was an awkward silence

His eyes moved from my eyes to my lips and back to my eyes

Adrian : I want you to love me too, can you?

I tried to speak but I was tongue tied

Is he asking me out?

He moved closer to me but I moved back.

He grabbed my hand and pulled me to himself.

I lost focus and mistakenly hit my leg against the other.

I fell and since he was holding me, he fell on me.

We didn't talk.

We just kept staring.

His eyes were too strong for me so I closed my eyes.

I abruptly opened them when I felt something on my lips.

Adrian

He's kissing me

My eyes were still widened

His hands interlocked with mine and I didn't know when I closed my eyes

And kissed him back
