"Good evening, everybody," he greeted, "I wanted to take this moment to thank everyone for coming and celebrating the end of the decade. I hope you all have a great time, we have an hour till midnight, LET'S PARTY!"
And everyone cheers. The DJ turns it up and we all have an even better time. The drinks were flowing, the vibes were electric, and my family was having fun.
I lost track of time and then asked, "hey Lando, what time is it?"
"10 to midnight," he answered.
"Ohh shit," I said, "I have to go look for Lewis."
"Midnight kiss?" He asked.
"Don't know yet," I smirked.
"Get it, girl," Zan said.
I laughed at them both and walked away. First I went to the bar to get a glass of champagne and then proceeded to go look for him.
I wandered through the crowd of people and asked some if they had seen Lewis. To my surprise no one had. Until I got to his sister, Nicola.
"Hey, have you seen Lewis?" I asked, " he told me to look for him at midnight."
"Ohh yeah," she said, "he told me to tell you to go to the balcony in the house."
She led me outside the tent and pointed at the balcony she was referring to. I went inside the house and made my way up the stairs. The moment I got to the top, a trail of rose petals was laid against the wooden floors to guide me.
I followed them to the balcony where he was standing with a single rose on hand.
"You took too long," he said.
"I lost track of time," I admitted, "your fault for throwing such a great party."
"Touché'" he said and extend the rose.
I got closer to him and received it, "thank you, Lew."
"My pleasure," he said, "I got you here for two reasons. One, better view of the fireworks."
"Thank you for that," I responded kindly, "what's the second reason?"
"Well," he began explaining but got cut off by the crowd of people counting down the New Year. They were on the outside of the tent facing the gardens.
We joined the count down, yelling out, "5, 4, 3, 2, 1, HAPPY NEW YEAR!"
Immediately the fireworks show began. There was immense coordination between the fireworks and the song playing. The colours were glorious and everything complimented each other. I was at ahh of it all.
As my eyes were fixated on the show, I felt Lewis take my hand and he said, "the second reason is this."
He put his hand on my face, leaned in closer and kissed me. His lips were soft and cold from standing outside. I moved in closer and put my arms resting on his shoulders, while he placed his hands on my waist, never breaking apart from the kiss.
We broke the kiss, looked at each other and started giggling. It was a moment of pure joy that this finally happened in a special way, I was blushing and we leaned our foreheads against each other.
"I like the second reason," I said with a smile and biting my bottom lip.
"You do?" He asked and giggled, " I do too."
I went in for a little peck on his lips and asked, "shall we join the party before our absence is noticed?"
"I really don't leave this moment right here," he admitted, "but for one more kiss I just might."
I laughed, put down the glass of champagne and rose I had in my hand down, and gently place both of my hands on the back of his neck to kiss him. This time it was more filled with passion and fire. His tongue slipped into my mouth and I craved him completely. My feelings for him grew deeper all I wanted to flourish for him, show him how I felt for him.
But unfortunately, we had to partway from the kiss and get ready to rejoin the party.
"You have some lipstick on your lips," I mentioned.
"Really?" He asked and rushed to the bathroom to see, " should I really take it off?"
"Yes please," I said, "I don't want my mom doing her 'I told you so' speech tonight."
He laughed and took it off, soon after we rejoined the party.
"Where were you?" Zan asked.
"I'll tell you later," I said.
"She was with him," Lando said wiggling his eyebrows.
"Can we un-adopt you?" I jokily asked.
"No," Zan said, "We all like him."
I laughed and we all continued to celebrate the rest of the evening. Later came the time to leave, and everyone went their separate ways. Oliver and Zan took mom to their house and when they offered me a ride, Lewis quickly said that he would gladly drop me off.
"Have fun and text me when you get home," Zan said.
"Of course," I responded, "drive safe guys."
The party was finally empty and the cleanup crew got straight to work. Lewis and I then hopped on this car and made our way to my apartment.
We arrived and he went into the parking garage to drop me off.
"Thank you for coming tonight," he said.
"Thank you for inviting me," I replied, " I really had a great time."
"I'm glad," he responded.
I smiled and finally said, " how long are we gonna pretend like your not gonna come up?"
He looked at me shocked and laughed, "well, your wish is my command."
He parked the car and we both made our way up. The moment I closed the door behind us. It was on. He quickly pinned me against the wall and proceeded to kiss me on my lips then my neck. I immediately took off my shoes and started exploring his body with my hands.
Then he carried me by my thighs and I wrapped my legs around his waist. He carefully walked to the bedroom while still kissing me. When we arrived, he gently placed me on the bed and I slowly unbuttoned his shirt, while he unzipped my dress.
The moment these items of clothing were out of the way our hands explored each other while we made out. I felt every inch of his chest and back.
Before we got any further he paused, looked at me and asked, "are you sure?"
"Certain," I replied as soon as he asked me. He wanted to know and I needed him to know that I did, completely.
From then it all went downhill slowly, everything happened as of it were choreographed. Our energy matched and not for a second I had a doubt in my mind about this moment. He gave me every feeling I craved, along with a night I would never forget.
Ohh he'll be the death of me.
