CHAPTER THREE

When you are a child, you dream of tales you never thought they would ever come true. My father never made it easier for me too, he had always told me about a certain prince charming that would most

likely sweep me off my feet. I always thought that was just one of the Disney tales and there was no way such could ever happen. God was I a fool? At the age of 17, I found myself in love with Adryan

Cannon. Fully and utterly in-love with him. It sounded insane, considering it was a very short time but that was never important. Our love was. Laughter boomed through the whole corridor as we made our way inside the Adryan's. It was very refreshing watching Adryan laugh so loudly, his laughter was very rich and full, it was like a blossoming flower. Mine colliding with his seemed so strange until I couldn't hear his laughter, I stopped and found him looking at me.

''What?'' I asked still smiling.

''You're beautiful,'' he reached out to tug a hair behind my ear causing my cheeks to redden. Little things made me look so stupid in front of Adryan but I was more comfortable with him than everyone in a very long time.

''Thank you,'' I uttered. We both made our way inside, closing the door behind us. I gasped when Adryan pushed me against the door, placing his hands on my hips as I closed the gap between us almost immediately, yearning for his touch. His tongue swept across my lower lips, eyes falling on my parted ones.

''What are you doing?'' I asked, already out of breath. Her eyes dart to his lips as she too, licks her lower lips then looked up meeting his eyes.

''I want to kiss you so bad...'' he whispered.

''Adryan, we're at your house. Your mom could be anywhere.'' I hushed pushing him a little. I laughed at his frown but he could only smile. We made our way to his bedroom. Once we closed the door, I

threw myself on Adryan's bed. It was very comfortable, saying it for the hundredth time didn't matter. Adryan came to the other side and snuggled himself closer to me, we stayed like that for a while.

''I think we should tell the others about us,'' I suggested causing Adryan to freeze. I really wanted everyone to know about us.

''Are you sure you want everyone to know? I really don't mind taking it a lot more slowly.'' I heard him say though I knew otherwise. It was because of Mica. It had to be.

''I think we should let them know Adryan, I hate this sneaking around like we're doing something wrong.'' I said to him and it went silence.

''Fine but lets enjoy this little time together, we can tell everyone after a week or two.'' I nodded to that. It was not much important anyways. We spent the rest of the night snuggling together, talking half

of it.

The following day quickly went by just as much. The next one was beautiful, the rain pouring beautiful just as how I loved it. I had just finished getting ready for the day when a knock came from

from downstairs. I huffed walking towards the door. My smile widening at the sight of Adryan, he had lilies on his hand. My favorite.

''Good morning, I was not expecting you.''

''Well, it was meant to be a surprise,'' he said to me, handing the flowers over. ''This are yours.''

''Thank you,'' I sniffed them. They smelled amazing. ''They're beautiful.''

''Not more than you,'' he fluttered me as he followed me inside. I was bright red from blushing, I changed the old flowers from the kitchen to the new ones. They were extremely beautiful.

''I wanted to take you out for breakfast. I hope you didn't have one.'' I shook my head.

''Perfect. Shall we?'' he reached out for her hand and she gladly took it. Adryan lead me out of the house as we made our way to his car. Comfortable silence settled upon us as we approached the car. He
