My Sister's Fiance

Chapter twenty seven --- stolen times over

Cassandra.

The seminar ended, but not Jem and I. Our friendship and bond last, even on our way home. He still would cassually slip his hands on mine and play innocent. He would also snake his hands in my waist while pulling me closer to him just like what he had done now. Smiling, I look at the sleeping Jem who is embracing me sideways, he look peaceful and content at his post that looking at him makes me just wanna burst in tears of happiness. He look so perfect to me and his closeness and smell become so normal to me that I could sense him away even in my sleep.

My heart went flat with the thought of him leaving but as the memory of our swimming lessons played in my mind I can't help but believe in him.

"Now were alone" He said to himself very satisfied while I just look at him in panic.

"Your so evil. ." I tried pouting and pull some act just to get somewhere nearer in the shore or atleast to the part where my foot could feel the ground. But his merciless and would just smile at me, playfuly.

"You can't play that act anymore. Your not a teenager!" He laughed at me while pinching my right cheek.

I pout more wanting to feel the safer ground.

"No. No. .no." He said shaking his head and trying to stand his guard.

I keep my act. Pouting with a pleading look for shore!

He looked up and laugh more, knowing to himself that I would win this time if I keep on doing him this face.

I secretly grin despite my fear of drowning knowing I'll taste land in no time.

Jem look at me again, this time grinning to himself as he release his grip on me and hold my face in his two hands.
"I swear Im gonna kiss you If you don't stop that." He sounded so serious, and damn his serious!

Feeling all heat, I blushed instantly making me think that I may as well look as red as a tomato.

I open my mouth in protest but shut it again. Despite the horror and blush I know deep inside me that those words ignited thousands of cells in my body. Wanting him to do the thing he promised but not wanting to make him do something stupid too.

I tried to say something again but before I could even speak his lips were already claiming mine.

I was stunned and almost breathless with his act. He was too close that I could already feel his heat and his heart pounding just like mine. He was so warm and his sweet lips, his soft thick lips that pressed a little to mine had not taken much advantage of me like he was asking me for some permission to continue and press forward.

Denying logic and wanting him bad I found myself anchoring my arms in his neck as I respond to his kiss. I drew myself closer to him to feel him more.

The kiss went smooth, not passionate and hungry but sweet and kind. A kiss that gives your spine a chill and your heart a dancing pound. A kiss that reflects forever and - - - and love.

After the kiss we parted a little but still so close that our forehead were still connected to each other. I feel myself tugged a smile as he smile too and give my nose a soft peck.

We stayed silent for a moment not wanting to ruin anything by words and reality. We just stayed there contented as we are knowing we shared the same feeling and love.

The silence wasn't awkward, infact it had built tingling sensation in my body knowing the excitement of his closeness and the idea of his love. He was just beautiful himself and breathing the same air with him makes me want to stay here forever.
