Chapter 11: Chapter 11
"would you like to come in for a cup of tea or coffee??" i asked him while pulling away from the hug.
"as long as you don't burn yourself this time round." he replied with a smile and i blushed.
I opened the door and we moved inside the house...we found Clare making some coffee and let me hope she wasn't eavesdropping cause it's fishy that she was preparing it at this time.
"guys sit down on the couch...let me serve you." she said.
We settled down and for the first time,i didn't feel uncomfortable sitting beside Carlton...today i was so at ease.
"ohh by the way we were coming from the store to fit in the gowns and we managed to make a good choice." I told him.
"ohhh really!!! that's good to know then i can't wait to see you walking down the aisle in that beautiful gown you selected." he replied with a warm smile.
"so who is your best man?? have you selected anyone yet??" I asked him.
"yah i did,my brother Carlos...i don't know if you have met him before??" he asked me.
"yah maybe once or twice at the company." i replied.
"ohh okay so i believe your friend over there is going to be your maid of honor right??" he asked.
"yah she is and it is going to be only the two of us cause i don't want any bridesmaids." i replied.
"anything you want am okay with it." he said.
Clare served us the coffee and it was truly amazing...Carlton also loved it and after finishing it,he wanted to take his leave so i decided to push him outside to his car but Clare couldn't stop grinning...i just ignored her ,i'll deal with her later.
We moved out with Carlton and when he reached his car,he turned and faced me then he looked in my eyes and said,
"i have really enjoyed this little quality time we have spent together."
"yah me too." i squeezed my lips together then looked away.
"So our wedding is in a few days and i can't wait to have you in my house as my wife...Ciara I l know all this happened so fast but i do treasure everything that is happening to us right now." he said.
I didn't know what to reply him so i just kept quiet.
"okay i will take my leave now but please reply my messages this time round when i text you...by the way are you into calls or texts??" he asked me.
"actually i hate calls but if you call,i promise to answer cause you are my soon to be husband and it will be so mean of me to ignore your calls again...am sorry i ignored them last time but it won't happen again." i assured him.
The moment i finished that statement,i felt his lips closing up with mine and he pulled more closer to him by placing his hands around my waist...i found myself falling on his chest and my hands snaked around his neck as we tilted our heads in opposite direction and gave each other access to conquer each other's lips.
The kiss was so passionate cause our lips and bodies were moving in a rhythm...he broke the kiss then he made me look into his eyes and he pecked on my forehead.
He cupped my face in his hands and I felt like a baby.
"okay i will be leaving now...please take care of yourself." he placed another kiss on my lips before stepping in the car.
Once his car was out of sight,i moved back in the house and Clare was sitting in the couch with her phone.
"so how does his lips taste??" she asked me.
I got a cushion and threw it at her even though she dodged it.
"mind your business you psycho." i told her.
"haha even if i want to,you guys won't let me cause your PDA's are all over the place...hurry up and get married please cause am so tired of bumping into your make out sessions." she said.
"haha you should even be grateful cause you are busy taking notes from us." I teased her.
"whatever....so you finally agreed that you two are slowly falling in love??" she asked me.
"well i don't know but today was kinda different cause we were able to talk without fighting and to be frank with you,his smile makes me weak and i think am slowly getting into this wedding moods." I replied her.
"wow!!! i think you have started falling for him and am happy that it's not only a crush,but also love is getting involved right now." she squeezed me so tight.
"eishh let go of me...and tomorrow we are going to get your dress cause you are my maid of honor,in case you didn't know." I told her.
"yah you had not told me before but of course am your best friend and you wouldn't dare to choose another one as your maid of honor cause i would kill you for betraying me." she sarcastically said.
My phone started ringing and after checking it,it was Carlton and i ran upstairs to pick it up cause i couldn't risk talking infront of this stupid girl.
"you guys should also involve the maid of honor in the wedding meetings..." she screamed at me.
"in your dreams sucker..." i screamed back.
I locked myself in the room and picked the call.
"hey i miss you." he said the moment i picked it.
"come back please...i think i miss you too." i managed to utter but it was more like a whisper.
"first thing tomorrow morning am going to be there and i can't wait to taste your lips one more time." he said in his husky voice.
"how about you taste something new other than my lips??" i asked him.
"as long as you are the one offering it to me,am down for it." he replied.
"uhm cutie i will call you back later on let me finish up with office work." he said.
He hung up and my body had started acting up like it already wanted him so badly.
