Chapter 21: Chapter 21
Maxine's POV
It's been two weeks since Celine and I started dating and all those times, I'm at my happiest. We decided to keep our relationship in private but not as a secret. We did things together, I mean, were in the same circle of friends so that's not really a problem. Though, I had discovered that Celine was a very touchy person, which I am not but with her, I just can’t keep my hands off of her. Heck! We even make out at the girl's comfort room.
Who can you blame? We're teenagers! and it has been weeks since that frustrating day. Lmao Today is Friday but Celine and I parted ways for a while, she goes at her place first to clean up, we decided to have a sleepover at her apartment. I am at the mall to buy some ingredients for our dinner because Celine is one hella good cook. She makes delicious foods and that’s a plus! My phone rang and I answered it immediately "Babe.. Are you at the mall yet?"
Celine asked through the phone "Yes babe. Are you at home already?" "Yeah, I'll just take a shower after our call. Umm.. Can you buy butter, i'm planning to cook buttered chicken too" "Sure baby." "Thanks babe! Take care, I'll see you later" "Bye babe" I said as I ended the call "One last ingredient... butter.. there you are" I said while putting all the ingredients on the cart and make my way to the counter. ---- I hummed as I walk my way to ger apartment holding two bags on my hands.
I was too excited to spend the night or even weekend with her again. It’s just so comfortable to be with her. No doubt that I am falling for her every time. But I figured, I still can’t tell her that. It’s quiet too soon.
I was hoping to see Celine dancing her butt's off while cleaning and listening to some pop songs but as I opened the door, I gasped at what I saw. Celine and that Mark guy was kissing. Celine's back was on me that’s why I had identified that same guy at the mall. The guy who called last week. What did he tell Celine and her friends anyway? That she liked Celine?? My heart sank like a broken vessel. It couldn't sail anymore. I felt this stinging pain that only Celine could heal. It was like I am being stabbed painfully, excruciatingly.
My eyes are tearing up but I won't cry. I tried to stop my tears from coming out. I'm not into some sappy romantic novels to let them see I’m hurting. I just stand there for like an hour but in reality, it’s just second as they seemed to whisper something, I couldn't hear to each other before pulling away and laughed.
They really enjoyed it huh!? I then realized I should let them know my presence. "Here's the ingredients. Enjoy your dinner and sorry for interrupting." Is aid as I quickly as I can before my voice cracked and I run out the door I saw how Celine's eyes go wide looking a little confused for a while then was replaced by panicked. I heard her shout my name but I walk as fast as I can.
To my luck, it started raining. "MAX!!!! Wait!" Celine kept following me as I walked down her street. She's too slow for her athletic body. Yes, I am running away from her but i just wanted her to keep up. Isn’t it what we always do? We think it’s best for us to run away from someone we love but unconsciously, what we really want is for them to follow us behind and keep up.
To pursue us. A loud thunder came and I hear her squeal. I am mad at her but i should just listen to her explanation, right? I stopped, already drenched from the rain and she stumbled on me. She grabs my hand for me to face her. I can’t look at her eyes because if I do, I won't be angry anymore. I'll be just dam whipped again! "Max. It's not what you think it is, okay?!" she said trying to make me look at her eyes "I'm sorry, baby. Just let me explain please... Let's go back.. "
Again, I am not in some crappy movie scene. I should have listened to her explanation and know her side. But I really saw them kissing. We walked back to her apartment, thankfully without that Mark guy. "Listen," she speaks as soon as were inside her room with water still dripping from our bodies "I know we agreed to keep our relationship in private and I respect that. I only like you, Max. No one else. " she said looking at me "Then why were you two kissing!?" i hissed trying not to sound hurt. I see what i had seen. I’m not imagining things. She stifled a giggle but I saw it and glared at her. How dare she laugh about it!?? " We're not kissing, baby" she said so sweetly "Last time when he asked us to hang out, Mark come out. He's gay and some of our friends don’t really take it well and now was avoiding him. You know how toxic that mindset is, Max. I was the only one to accept him. I just gave him comfort because he's crying.. and I think what you saw is.. just me, wiping his tears off his face saying how ugly he is when he cries." she finished looking at me with sincerity I believed her. I know how coming out to friends and families was really hard and when people avoided you it just doubled the pain. Like wtf!? Its 2020 people!! Even way back 1800s theorists and artists already exhibited gayness!! "I'm sorry.." I finally replied looking at her eyes. She gave me a small smile and hug me. "I was just scared of.. losing.. you" "Max, baby.. I will never do such thing to you. You're my one and only. I am fully committed to you. I just want you and no one else, okay?" Celine said as she cupped my cheeks "I know.. And i feel the same way but.. the thought of you wanting.. someone else kills --" she sighs not letting me finished what i was saying and kissed me really hard but was sweet and gently at the same time. I can feel her emotions. I grab the back of her neck reciprocating the kiss.
I pull her closer to me as i put my hands on her waist and walked further until she reached the couch. Celine pulled away making me feel disappointed thinking she'll tell me to stop but thats not what happened next. She grabbed my hand as we head to her bedroom and she kissed me again while kicking the door close. Celine looked at me in the eye with a lot of passion and pulls her shirt off. I smirk and pushed her down the bed. We both make every piece of clothing that separates our bodies to touch, disappear in an instant. I take her in and I just can’t get tired looking at her, she's perfect! The way her hair loosens up its braid, the glimmer in her eyes and how plump her lips where was just too much. And i find myself worshiping her body by kissing every inch of her revealing in the warmth and the noises she's making as my warm breath and tongue trailed unto her body, from her neck down to her collarbone to her breast as i decided to stop there.
I let my tongue take its time as i swirl patterns to Celine's breast. I circled slowly to her nipple before sucking it with my mouth, leaving the other breast with my hands and then vice versa, biting softly against her hardened nipples. Celine, who’s been struggling my hips, move her things between my legs as I stay on her chest making me moan. "Aaaahhhh" The sound I make her groaned and I smirk through our kiss, glad that I have that effect on her. I hump mine unto hers, feeling her wetness. Celine gasped as I fasten my pace rocking my area on hers, moving up and down... grinding against it. "Maxine..." Celine whines grabbing my ass and pushing it more against hers.
Fck. I want her.
