Chapter 14: Chapter 14

I continued to look at Michael's face, taking in every one of his features and I'm still in awe of how someone could be this good looking without making an effort.

He's better than Vincent in every way possible but I wouldn't tell him that since he has no idea who Vincent is.

I was still comparing Vincent to Michael in my head when something wet touched my lips and my eyes widened in shock when I realized what it was.

Michael's lips were on mine and his eyes looked as if he was asking for permission when I didn't respond immediately. I could feel my heart beating from excitement as his lips touched mine again. His lips tasted like honey,his face has the slightest bit of stubble and it rubs my skin but I don't care,I don't care at all….he feels wonderful.

This is far better than any imagination I've ever had all the times I thought of kissing him. His hand remained on my neck and it didn't go below that and I respected the fact that he was being a gentleman even though I knew it was kind of hard for him.

His lips moved gently against mine and I wrapped my hand around his neck as he brought me closer. This isn't my first kiss but it sure feels like it.

After what seemed like forever,his lips left mine and I remembered I had to breathe in order to stay alive. I missed his lips against mine immediately he separated us.

"That was nice." I said,with my head on his chest.

"Try f**king amazing." He whispered.

"Why did we wait this long if this is how it's going to feel each time you kiss me." I said,not sure where the boldness was coming from but I liked that I could tell him I wanted him.

"Don't give me ideas." I heard him say.

"You can have all the ideas you can think of,who says I mind?" I asked,and without warning I crushed my lips to his and it didn't take long before he responded as if he was waiting for me.

This time,the kiss was a little rough than the first one but it was perfect.

"This has to be my best kiss." He said. I was happy to hear that because I knew surely that I'm not the first girl he's kissing but I'm glad I'm the best….if that makes any sense.

We talked a little before he had to go in order to prepare for work.

"So what happened and before you say anything,I didn't eavesdrop on you." Comfort said when she came back in.

"We kissed,like a long kiss." I told her.

"How was it?" She asked excitedly.

"Seriously you want me to describe a kiss to you." I deadpanned.

"You owe me, remember? I had to listen to David talk about how beautiful you are as if I'm not aware and him wanting to know why I left the room for you." She added.

"Okay... it's the most exciting thing that has happened to me today and maybe in a while,and his lips were so soft and they tasted like honey….it was so good." I explained.

"Seems like you had fun…. lots of fun" She said when I was done.

"I did thanks for excusing us." I told her.

"I didn't want to watch the both of you make babies in my presence." She replied and I let out a laugh.

"We didn't go that far, trust me." I said.

"But you wanted to?" She asked.

"I'm scared,what if he finds out I'm an orphan and decides to walk away?" I asked,my voice a little low now.

"Being an orphan isn't a disease,and he looks matured enough to know that." She answered, giving me a little hope.

"And I think he already knows but is still here."she added, referring to the day I told her mistakenly said orphanage.

"I hope so." I said,and I started thinking about how good the kiss was and I fell asleep.

"You're glowing." Tracy said,the next day when I got to work.

"I might have kissed a certain someone yesterday." I told her.

"Tell me everything." She said,just like Comfort and I wondered what else was needed after I said I kissed someone.

"I didn't pay you to talk." A voice, which turned out to be that of the manager said and immediately, ran in different directions.

"That was close, I can't feel my heart." I whispered to myself.

I went around taking orders,but I still left the smile on my face and I think other usual customers noticed too because they wouldn't stop looking at me.

As I went on serving,my eyes fell on Michael who was sitting on his usual table with his friend,the one he came with the first day and when my eyes met his,he winked….. just unbelievable. I became shy all of a sudden and thankfully I was done serving the food I brought and I quickly ran into the kitchen.

"I won't concentrate if you keep staring at me like that." I sent to him the moment I excused myself to the restroom.

"Who says I want you to concentrate?" He replied with a smiling emoji…..is he serious right now.

"I'm going to stay in the kitchen till you leave." I wrote.

"Ok, sorry. Come take my order please." He said,and I felt butterflies in my stomach just from reading his message.

"Tracy would do that." I texted just to see his response.

"I already sent her back,I only want you." He said,and I totally read it in another way.

"What would you like to order sir?" I asked,when I finally came out of the restroom.

"Are you on the menu?" He asked with a wink and while my chest fluttered at this,his friend choked on his drink.

"jesus…. Michael,stop making her uncomfortable." He said.

"It's just a question,I don't know why you're both making a fuss out of it." Michael murmured.

Deciding to play along with his flirt,I was going to give him a dose of his own medicine.

"I'll let you know that I am on the menu,

would you like it hot or cold Mr Michael?" I asked,now my turn to laugh as he almost choked on saliva.

"You're good." His friend said, nodding in approval.

"Are you ready to order for real now because people are starting to stare?" I asked.

Nodding,they both told me what they wanted and I wrote it down before heading back to the kitchen.

"You were smiling with those guys,do you know them?" Tracy asked.

"I was, you're imagining things." I lied as I headed back to Michael's table with their order.

"Thanks Angel." He said and I blushed

He was having an effect on me and he knew it but I was also glad he did.
