Yours, truly

Chapter 9

Serkan woke up the next day with an unknown sense of warmth surrounding him. He'd never felt such relaxed, good and comfortable. Opening his eyes, he spotted a peacefully sleeping Eda on his chest. One of his hands was around her waist, keeping her as close as possible to him. He's never been one to cuddle while sleeping, but for some reason, having her in his arms felt extremely good.

One of her hands was laying freely on the vast expanse of his chest whereas the other was tucked under her chin. She looked so beautiful while sleeping that he couldn't help but stare. He pressed his lips gently against her forehead and started to caress her hair.

Slowly, she started to wake up. Taking a deep breath, Eda felt that intoxicating scent filling up her nostrils. She tilted her head up to meet a beautiful green pair of eyes already staring at her.

"Good morning" She murmured as her hand went to caress that three-day beard, a small but beautiful smile on her face. "Good morning, love" Serkan answered, giving her a peck on her eyelid.

That was the most beautiful morning even though a few words were spoken. Not only their legs and hands were tangled, but now their hearts too. And they couldn't get enough of that feeling as they touched and kissed each other freely.

It was time for they to go now. Even though their three-day trip to Antalya sadly had come to an end, that place would forever hold a special spot in their hearts. That place marked the beginning of a beautiful relationship. That place meant a new beginning, a fresh start.

Given that their relationship was still new, she wished for some privacy and some time to get used to it and get to know Serkan better, but thanks to him and his impulses, now all the world has seen the pic of him shoving his tongue down her throat.

"I love seeing you in my shirt" Serkan whispered in her ear as he hugged her from behind, wrapping his hands around her while she stood in front of a mirror doing her makeup.

"Yaa, if you keep touching me we won't ever make it to breakfast." Eda protested as he buried his face in the crook of her neck, planting small kisses all around it. "Serkan!" she exclaimed in a firm voice, even though she didn't want him to stop what he was doing.

"Hm?" he hummed, biting her earlobe as a soft moan escaped from her mouth. She suddenly turned around to grab his face and crush their lips together, giving him a proper good morning as she sucked on his upper lip urgently.

"Come on, let's go now." Eda begged, trying to untangle his hands from her waist. Eventually, he gave in and finally went to have breakfast with the team.

"Good morning everyone!" Serkan said as he took his usual seat, this time Eda sitting right next to him.

"Good morning" Efe and Ceren answered, sitting in front of the new couple. Serkan, Efe and Engin started to talk and discuss work while Ceren and Eda had a silent conversation with each other with their eyes. Ceren winked her eye at her and tilted her head a little, asking her how it went as Eda took a deep breath, closed her eyes and smiled at her, letting her know that it went amazing.

"What are you doing after we land?" Eda whispered at him as he leaned back on his seat. "I'm going for lunch with my mom, she told me something about keeping up appearances so I kind of have to. What are you doing?" he asked.

"I will go out with my university friends for lunch. I was wondering if you were free to do something for dinner?" Eda suggested. "Yes. I'll call you as soon as I'm finished." He answered.

They quickly prepared their luggage and got on the plane to go to Istanbul. They arrived an hour later. Serkan headed immediately to the luxurious restaurant where he was supposed to meet his mother, Efe took Ceren home while Eda went out with her friends.
