Chapter 36: Chapter 36

**Zion's POV**

"Happy Birthday to you!

Happy Birthday dear Nathan,

Happy Birthday to you," we all sing in a same voice and melody.

So, finally the guy is going to be sixteen. The age when I met Nancy for the first time in my life.

If it wasn't for my dad's transfer I wouldn't have been able to meet her ever in my life. Isn't it good thing that I met her? She is the most beautiful thing that has ever happened to me.

"Nancy, where's my gift?" he lays his both hands in front of her without even thinking. Nancy had been in hospital and she hasn't been able to buy any gifts to him.

'You already got PS5 dude," she says as she throws some strands of hair behind her shoulders.

"Come on! That was given to by Zion not by you. I want something else from you now?" he insists.

'Okay! Fine. Tell me what do you want?" she asks him.

"I want you to get married with Zion," he says.

What? What did he say?

What kind of silly wish is that?

"Do you even know what does getting married means? It's simple I can't fulfil your wish. At least not now," I shrug.

"Are you hurrying to get married or what? I didn't mean to say now," he replies.

Zion gazes back at me with a playful look. He must be dancing right now after hearing what Nathan had said.

"No...No... What are you thinking? I don't mean that? I mean I want to get married at least after getting my formula so much popular here. I want to be damn famous and damn rich brother," I say as I pat my own shoulders showcasing them how great and big dreams I have for the future.

"Argh... You will get old in that way. How about getting married first and then doing the things later on," Zion suggests me.

What's wrong with these two? Are they teaming up against me? Two versus one?

"I'm into it," dad adds.

"What? Dad why are you with them too? Wait! How do you guys know about us?" I ask them?

Isn't that more curious thing? How did they know about us? I haven't even told them about us?

Both of them roll their eyes to to every direction, they could but not exactly on my eyes.

Is there something that I have missed or something they have hidden from me?

"I think I have something on the oven. Let me go and check it!" Dad says.

"Wait! Dad! We haven't even cut the cake? Where are you going to?" I shout at him? He is trying to walk away from there.

"It's fine. I will be here just in some minutes," he smirks at me and gallops quickly to the kitchen.

"Nathan you have something to answer?" I turn to Nathan.

"I suddenly remember, we haven't brought the knife to cut the cake," he says and follows dad.

What's so wrong with them?

"What's with them?" I turn to Zion to ask about my confusion on them. Are they even my relatives? What are they hiding from me?

Zion rolls his eyes and tries to look at other directions as well. Just like them.

"Zion! Will you please tell me what is going on?" I growl at him but no, he does the same thing. He walks away from there and I simply follow him madly trying to know what is going on.

"Are you even listening to me?" I say as I follow him towards my store room.

He doesn't day anything and suddenly whole light of the house gets off.

What the shit?

Why would light go like this? Do we have black out or is it something?

I am thinking about the possible reasons of black out and try to walk away from there to the main switch so I can see what is actually problem in there?

But as soon as I tread just double steps, someone pulls me inside the store room.

My eyes bulges out like I have seen some ghost. It scares me to hell.

I try to hit the door with hands but my hand gets caught before I even try.

"Who the hell are you?" I ask. Do we have bandits on our home?

"Shhh... Why are you always fast to react?" I hear his voice. By his I mean, Zion.

"What the hell are you doing? " I ask. He snakes his hands around my stomach and rests his chin on my shoulder.

"Is it a crime that I want to have some romance with you?" he says and I chuckle.

Is there even any moment when he doesn't want to be so romantic?

"Ohh! You're in mood. I have to go and check the switch. Can you please let me go?" I ask.

He snuggles more on my shoulders and say," I can't. It's just some minutes time. So I need to utilize it with my benefits."

"How do you even know its some minutes?" I ask.

He sniggers and I can clearly guess that it is all his plan.

"You organized this party, didn't you?" I ask and he nods on my shoulders.

"Such a tricky man. I am just so sick of your tricks," I say.

"So, should I stop tricking you?" he asks and tickles on my stomach.

I try to laugh not loud with his tickles and turn towards me.

I lift both of my hands and try to touch his face. I want to feel the things that I completely neglect when I have eyes to see.

I mean when your one sense organs doesn't work then your another one gets more active. My eyes are quite active and wise enough to find him but I want to sense him even without seeing.

I want to sense his skin, sense his smell and see him even without seeing him. I want to know him without even without my eyes.

I try to map out his every parts. His skin is rough. I can feel the small bristles on his jaw and on his cheeks. I can even map the area up to which I can find those bristles.

His nose is sharp. I measure the length of his nose, length of his forehead on my mind.

And his like feels so much plumpy. The upper one is thin and the lower one is filled. They are perfect.

"Can you recognise me now?" he asks.

How can I forget the smell of his body? Natural smell of his body wash and his perfume.

"Are you ever going to change your perfume?" I ask.

"What do you think? Should I? " he asks.

"Make sure to send a sample of it to me," I chuckle and lean on his chest. I rest my head over there.

He holds my face gently and then lights him flashlight of his phone on his face.

"I will be like this always on your mind. Even when I will be ugly and even when I don't have any teeth to chew the bacon. Are you fine with it?" he asks.

I nod my head.

I will love him the way I loved him always. No! I will love him more in the future. More than he could even imagine.

"And, this face is always going to be in my mind. Whatever will happen in the future, I will always have this face of you engraved in my heart and I am going to love you more than you have ever loved me," he says as he flashes the light on my face and my eyes flutter because of light.

I am struggling to see him and then I suddenly feel his like crashing on mine.

I feel an eternity in his kiss. It's the most beautiful thing I can ever imagine.

The scent of his body, the taste of his lips, the way his tongue keeps dancing on my mouth and makes me sync with his steps makes me crazy every time he holds me in his arms and presses his magical lips on mine.

I can find my whole world completely different when he does that. In that world, nothing exists.

Nothing, not my dad, not my brother, neither any of my friends.

Just him and me.

Just we exist in that world and I feel so much elated with him.
