"Ele..." He looked at my perplexed state and continued "do you even have to ask?"
I wondered what he meant by those words, was he implying yes for my proposal or a yes for rejection?
"I don't understand, is that a yes?" I asked him.
He looked at me in amusement, closed the gap between our bodies and our lips, it was slow at first, reassuring the new relationship between us, my insecurities breaking into pieces. I melted into his hold.
We broke apart breathing heavily, "that should do" muttered Aiden, with a satisfied smile on his face.
"Was it too much for you to say it directly?" I enquired.
"Hmm, mmm maybe" he replied lazily and placed a kiss on my forehead, got up from the bed, and walked to the bathroom.
The sudden departure shocked me, successfully confusing my hijacked brain, an involuntary smile curved at the edges of my lips, with the no-nonsense attitude I walked near the bathroom and banged on the door.
"What the heck dude? Tell it to me!" I screamed, concealing my smile behind the uproar.
The door opened, Aiden walked out casually, took the food tray, and settled himself on the bed. He glanced at me, feigning innocence. I quirked my eyebrows up, his lips curved into a mischievous smirk, he gestured for me to come closer with his pointing finger.
I sat next to him, he lifted a forkful of toast, sausages, egg, and brought it near my mouth, I took a bite, chewed, and swallowed it methodically.
Eating from his hands brought more pleasure than my wild daydreams, Aiden was a guy of simple forehead kisses and food sharing, that was what I loved about him the most.
It may be only a few days since I met him but his caring nature and unavoidable sweet gestures can sway away robot, so why not me? But I wanted to know more about him.
"Earth to girly!" He cooed, shaking the fork in front of my face.
I snapped out of my reverie and glanced at him, shook my head, and swallowed the mouthful. I heard a clink and I knew we've got company, I turned to the door and looked at my embarrassed mom, her cheeks pink from the intrusion.
"Uhmm, sorry... I... I'll wait downstairs" she said, Aiden politely nodded at her and ignored the situation by concentrating on the food.
My mother mouthed the words "be late!", winked at me, and walked away. This was something I expected from my mother.
"Guess we should go down" Aiden started slowly.
"Nah, she asked me to be late" I informed him and looked at his quizzical expression.
