Chapter 34: Chapter 34

Grayson's demeanor returned to normal. From the moment the attitude was breathed out he became even more open to showing how he really felt for Kendall.

"Where are we going? This is not the way home?" he asked the driving girl as they were on their way home from UP.

"We're going to have dinner," Kendall replied as he looked down the road.

"I don't remember having a dinner appointment. Are you going to treat me?" astonished he said.

Kendall didn't answer and just continued driving quietly.

From time to time, Grayson glanced at the person next to him. Despite all the admissions here, he did not even see the slightest sign of being affected or even moved by what he said. In fact, it seemed that his dealings with her were even colder. But it doesn't matter. He expected no replacement from the woman. Just staying by his side even as a bodyguard was enough for him.

Arriving at the restaurant, Kendall let him down first.

"Grayson you go inside first. I'll just call someone at headquarters."

"Let's go together. I'll wait for you until you're done talking."

"I can't. We'll talk confidentially. You go inside and just wait for me."

Grayson was forced to comply. He got out of the car and calmly walked into the restaurant. Touching the glassdoor he was stunned at the sight. Cady. It was sitting alone at the table and obviously someone was waiting.

He immediately got into the situation. He returned to the car and saw that no one was talking on the phone.

"What are you doing Kendall?" meet eyebrows he asked.

"Make arrangements with Cady," she said coldly but sharply.

He was suddenly taken aback by what he heard but he suppressed the emotion. "You don't have to do this. I'll decide on this matter."

"If I don't do this, can I ask when you plan to fix your girlfriend's problem?"

"Kendall she's not my girlfriend anymore. I broke up with her."

"Why? Because you sympathized with him for being angry with me, didn't you?" the woman's eyebrow raised.

"No. Not only that. I told you that I-"

Kendall didn't finish what the man was going to say. He avoided hearing the next words come out of its mouth.

"Grayson don't make me an excuse for you and Cady to break up. I don't want a broken relationship because of me. Don't waste everything between the two of you. Remember you have a promise to keep to your grandfather ... Cady is the one a woman who can help you keep that promise. Your girlfriend loves you and I know you love her too so don't throw everything away like that Grayson. "

Grayson fell silent. Think for a moment, sigh and look seriously at the speaker. "Is this what you want?"

Kendall didn't answer.

Grayson stared at the girl for a long time while waiting for what she would say. He was looking for the real answer in its eyes. "I'm asking you if this is what you want?"

Kendall disappeared from the man's gaze. "Don't ask me if this is what I want. Do it because it's right for you."

"Answer me or else I won't go inside. If I do this will you be happy?" the man said sternly.

Kendall didn't answer again. Grayson leaned back in his chair and took a deep breath.

"Let's go home," the man commanded loudly.

Grayson waited for Kendall to operate the car but the girl did not move. It just kept holding on tightly to the steering wheel while looking straight ahead.

"Yes. This is what I want," it said suddenly.

Grayson was stunned. He stared at the woman seriously again. "Say it again."

"Yes. This is what I want."

"Say it again ... while looking into my eyes."

Kendall was forced to look to the side. "S-I said this is what I want," the face was hard but swallowed he said.

The man grinned and rolled his eyes at the woman. "Okay, if you said so then I'll do it. But bear in your mind, the only reason why I'm doing this is because I'm willing to do anything that will make you happy," its sarcastic tone.

Grayson got out of the car and slammed the door shut. After he came out, Kendall was immediately grabbed by his chest. He took several deep breaths. He was already struggling with his stubbornness but this was the only way he could think of so that Grayson would not fall in love with him again. He didn’t want to expect it because no matter what happened, he knew he had nothing else to offer it other than fulfilling his responsibility to take care of its safety.

While waiting for Grayson and Cady's conversation to end, Kendall couldn't understand the strange feeling that was slowly emerging. He was restless. What was running through his mind. Someone suddenly objected inwardly to the conversation the two were having. It was as if someone was stabbing her in the chest while thinking that maybe in those moments they were happy to exchange smiles again. She was nervous that the two might be like before again, talking happily while having sex.

He repeatedly looked at the watch. He has been waiting a long time. Did he immediately disappear from Grayson's brain so that it forgot he was waiting? He repeatedly bit his lips in impatience. He wanted to hit the horn ... but in a flash he suddenly woke up.

He laughed to himself. Why is he acting like this when he is the one who initiated the two to get along?

He patted his chest several times. He opened the window so that air could enter his chest, which seemed to be tightening. And punched himself to remind himself that he had no right to be affected by such a thing. He got out of the car when he felt as if he could no longer breathe inside.

Thirty minutes later Cady and Grayson came out. The two hold hands. Kendall's chest squeezed at the sight but he forced a smile. Cady's smile reached her ears. It immediately approached and hugged him tightly.

"Thank you Kendall."

He smiled wistfully and patted the woman on the back. "Don't thank me Cady. I've thought maybe Grayson was right and realized his mistake," she said softly to avoid hearing it from the man. She glanced at Grayson. It looked blank staring at him.

They drove Cady home. From time to time Kendall looks in the mirror. He sees Cady caressing Grayson while the man just smiles. The tone of their conversation was happy but there was not much physical tenderness other than holding hands.

He became serious about driving again and when he accidentally looked in the mirror, he was the last one in the act of Cady kissing Grayson. He was suddenly braked hard. The two riders in the back almost sank.

"What happened ?!" Grayson's startled words.

Kendall blushed and was suddenly confused at what to answer. "I-A cat crossed over. I-I almost ran over. I'm sorry ...."

"Be careful in driving," the man's tone was concerned.

"Y-Yeah."

After delivering Cady Grayson sat down in front again. The inside of the car was quiet during the ride. Nothing happened even a brief question and answer. But arriving at the garage Grayson broke the silence before descending.

"Are you happy now?" its serious utterance.

Kendall didn't say a word immediately. With great difficulty he ordered himself to nod and smile.

"Are you happy I'm in a relationship with a woman I no longer love?"

"You love Cady, Grayson. You're just confused again. It's just like what you went through when you were confused between her and Abigail," the woman said with a smile.

"I'm not confused Kendall."

Kendall looked serious and gently looked at the man. "I beg you Grayson. Don't include me among the women crammed there in your heart. You can't infer anything from me. I can't give you anything but keep you away from any harm. I'm here because of my job so if you want me stay by your side you stop the nonsense you are saying .... "

"... If you fell in love with Hailey that's over. Hailey is gone, someone else is in front of you now and I keep apologizing to you for the sins I've committed. I beg you Grayson don't when you confuse yourself because I can no longer see you hurt because of Hailey ... "

Grayson's face hardened and the eyes staring at him protested. "Kendall or Hailey .... It is still you, isn't it? It is the same person who carries the same heart and soul .... I love you for who you are no matter what your name is."

"G-Grayson-"

Grayson got out of the car and never spoke again. They quietly walked down the hall. Both feel until they reach the door of their respective rooms.

Grayson's lips stopped turning the door knob. Earlier he had been reluctant to show rebellious feelings. He couldn't accept all of Kendall's answers to him. Her whole being seemed to fade whenever she thought she couldn't love him.

Kendall's knees weaken as he opens his door. He felt tired of dealing with his own feelings all day. She hurts every time she rejects Grayson. Her heart breaks with every hard word she utters for the man.

Not on his own and slumped on his shoulders he entered the room. But he suddenly straightened up when Grayson appeared next to him and without saying a word he accompanied him into the room. He locked the door and faced her with a blushing face.

"I know you can defend yourself but I don't care. Hit me as much as you can I'll take all of it!"

Kendall was temporarily speechless in shock. She couldn't believe how bravely Grayson had entered her room. It pushed him and leaned against the wall. She stared at the face of the man engulfed in mixed emotions. It pressed both his hands against the wall and gave him scorching stares.

"There are no more women crammed into my heart Kendall. You've kicked everyone out. You're the only one left here! And I'll do everything to make you love me too!"

"B-Grayson ... what are you talking about? Are you losing yourself? Do you know what you're doing right now?" kabadong ika ng lalaki.

"Yes I know what I'm doing. I'm harassing you right now. I'm not losing myself. You can fight if you want to but you can't stop me."

Grayson bravely pressed a kiss to the woman's lips.

Kendall's eyes widened and suddenly he was unable to move his entire body. Like ice born of fire melted all the dwelling courage in his chest. Gradually his knees softened. He suddenly ran away with the strength to fight back and evade.

She was just stunned as Grayson freely abused her lips. He tried to open his closed lips but he remained stumped. Her eyes widened and there was no reaction while kissing.

Grayson did not give up. It released the pressure on his hands. It turned his waist and aggressively pressed him to its body. He turned around and accidentally opened his mouth. And at that moment he felt Grayson's tongue enter. Its violent kiss gradually became soft.

He wrapped one hand around his waist while holding one hand around his neck. He’s still not moving. He tries himself. He wanted to know how far he could tolerate and fight the floating emotion.

Until he gradually accepted in himself the reason why he let Grayson do this to him. Why he doesn't avoid. Why isn't she fighting ... because she also has feelings for the man. All the caring and concern he does is a result of how he really feels for it. She didn't mean to ... but she learned to love Grayson. He really loves it too.

He began to reciprocate the kiss. One by one the suppressed emotions were released from his chest. He closed his eyes and slowly followed every movement of Grayson's lips. As much as it oppressed him with a kiss before, he also oppressed him with a kiss. He hugged it and eagerly caressed its back.

Grayson's hands crawled up. He just let it go. There was no resistance left from him. The man's lips traveled. He kissed her behind her ear down to her neck. He gave up wholeheartedly.

Until Grayson himself came to his senses. Her eyes widened as she stared at him and couldn't believe her willingness to tolerate.

"W-What is this all about Kendall?"

He did not answer instead he calmly adjusted himself. He avoided looking into Grayson's eyes.

"Y-You're telling me something, right?"

"I-I was just carried away," he replied softly and swallowed without looking at the person he was talking to. He walked to the door and opened it. "Come out Grayson," was the blank reaction he uttered.

Stunned, Grayson walked out the door. And when the girl was about to close the door she suddenly blocked it with her hand. He stared at Kendall very seriously. "You're kiss is telling me differently ... And I will hold on to what it says."

Kendall seemed to hear nothing. Even with his chest tight, he tried not to show it. Even swallowing is difficult for him to do. She was in tears at the discovered weakness. Is Don Arthur's fear really happening?

-------

The next morning Grayson came out of the room in a hurry. The joy on his face could not be hidden. Her chest was full of hope that Kendall would love her too. From this day on, he has no intention of doing anything but prove to the woman that he will stand by his love for her. He was willing to do all sorts of dryness. He didn’t care how hard he went through. He wants to start right so he will talk to Cady and tell her the whole truth.

He went to Kendall's door and knocked to invite him to breakfast. No one opened the door. He thought it might have come down to him first. When he reached the chin his eyes immediately searched for the maiden but the first thing he saw was a burly man who seemed to be waiting for him. It settled when we saw him.

"Who are you?" wrinkled when he asked.

"I'm SPO2 Rodriguez. From today, I'll be watching over you Mr. Hoffman."

It was as if hot water had been sprinkled on him. Immediately the throbbing of his chest intensified. "Where is Kendall?" his questioning eyes widened.

"They have agreed with Chief Spencer that he will be temporarily assigned to another place."

Her eyes widened even more. Her chest felt like it would explode at what she found out. "No! That can't happen!"

He hurriedly ran to the garage. He was going to Kendall's headquarters. The police followed him.

"Where are you going, Mr. Hoffman.?"

"Where is she now ?!" he asked confused.

"I can't say. His transfer is confidential."

"NO! THAT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN! I DON'T AGREE YET! THEY ARE NOT ALLOWED TO REPLACE MY BODYGUARD UNTIL I SAY YES!"

Grayson approached the man and held him on both shoulders. He repeatedly shook his shoulder to force him to speak. His face turned red. Her lips trembled with nervousness. Her tears were rolling down her cheeks. Her knees are weakening. He looks like he's going crazy. He didn't want to believe that the woman in his arms last night would not be with him the next morning.

"WHERE IS SHE? WHERE IS SHEEEE !!!"

"I'm sorry but I can't really say."
