Eyes Behold

34. His Angel Eyes

Rose could not believe her eyes . She was finally witnessing the awaited moment .

Ryder was standing right in front of the wall , holding both of Amelia's hands in his and looking at her lovingly. Amelia was stunned to silence. She couldn't believe what she had heard just now.

" Believe me Amelia . I really really like you. Will you be my girlfriend?"

Rose chuckled at her dumbfounded friend who was still staring at him eyes wide open and mouth agape . He had already repeated it and she still couldn't come to terms with the situation.

For the first time Ryder was really hating this silence. He loved listening to her speak but he liked the silent talks between them too . The silent looks they shared . He knew she had feelings for him too but now as the seconds ticked by , he was second guessing his decision.

Today had been overwhelming. Amelia was the happiest he had ever seen . She truly loved this place and not even once did that smile that he loved had slipped from her face until now. He was very happy and now when he was standing here surrounded by ' I love yous' he couldn't hold himself back .

Finally Amelia broke out of her trance . Her wide open mouth turned into a wide grin as she nodded continuously with tears brimming her eyes. Ryder let out a sigh of relief and held onto her head to stop her from nodding while softly chuckling . She just couldn't stop nodding . She was so happy that she squealed and launched herself on Ryder who caught her in time and hugged her back tightly .

Now this was the reaction he was waiting for.

Claire who had been shooting this all the while rotated the camera around to capture an awstruck Stephanie , a jumping Catherine, a blushing Carlos.

'Wait , why is he blushing ?' she thought ' This lad is something else.' she shook her head amused .

She then focused the camera on a sobbing Rose . She was expecting this but Jordan wasn't and Claire was more than happy to record his expressions . He was truly perplexed and worried about her .

' Why is she crying ? Does she like Ryder ? Is she jealous?' he thought.

He was broken out of his thoughts by a highly amused Claire who was clearly enjoying this .

" Don't worry Jordi-boy , these tears are that of happiness. She is happy for them ." she whispered

Jordan relaxed inwardly but never showed it on his face . This was the second time he was talking to her . Although he didn't know her personally but he knew her well enough from Rose. He cocked an eyebrow putting his hands in his pockets and straightening a bit.

" Jordi-boy?"

Claire chuckled and was about to say something when she saw a flustered Rose now completely red and turning her face away from the couple . Confused she glanced over and saw the duo kissing each other passionately.

She was full on laughing now. This brought her attention she always managed to draw.

" Oh Mels ! You completely destroyed our Rose's innocent eyes . " she said clutching her stomach as she saw a mortified Rose glaring at her.

Jordan was beyond shocked .

" You have never kissed before ?" he asked still shocked.

Rose's eyes shifted to him and grew as wide as saucers .

' This detail wasn't necessary at all!!' she thought .

She groaned as her face was set on fire with the amount of blushing . She shifted on her feet glancing everywhere while the whole group laughed at her expense.
