Eco's POV

"Eco, I... I'm sor..." Before Sky could finish his sorry, I move close to him and kiss him on his lips.

It wasn't passionate or anything. It's more like a peck. I just wanted the kiss and have a touch of him because he was about to kiss me but stopped as his secretary interrupted us. We were really so lost in each other's eyes and were so ready to kiss but we couldn't. And how can he keep me hanging after staring at me like he's going to eat me any second.

When I pull away, he just watches me in shock but the second I separated, I missed the feeling. I feel like wanting more. I just go with the feelings and move closer to Sky. I bring my hands up and wrap them around his neck. Our faces are inches away. I just stare at his eyes but he keeps his focus on my lips. I smirk internally, at least now I know he has some interest on my lips.

"Um..E-Eco." The way he whispered my name sent chills down my spin.

I lean my face forward and was ready to attach our lips again when he pulls his face back. I frown but don't let him go. It's not like we're strangers or flings or like cheating on our partners. We're partners for god's sake and it's extremely okay to kiss other. If he didn't want I'll let him go but I know he too wants to kiss me but I don't know why he is resisting it so much?

"Eco, let's n.." I cut him off.

"Why?" I ask him, "why are you resisting so much? I know you too want to kiss me. What's stopping you?"

He stays still without uttering a word for a minute. He then sighs and opens his mouth, "I think.. we still need... like to actually...you know."

With the way he's just blabbering some nonsense and his eyes focus on my lips, I know he actually has no reason as why he's resisting me. Maybe just that he's scared.

"Just shut up and kiss me!" I order him and wait for him.

How can I let him go when I know he's literally dying to kiss me but just don't know how? But at the same time, I don't want to take initiative. If he wants, he should take initiative as well. It's not like I'm the only one who wants the kiss. Until now it's been me who is trying, I also want Sky to show at least little interest in me. Since my health got sick, he took great care of me which made me believe he cares for me. I feel all he needs a little push and then he'll do it right.

I wait for him like a whole of 2 minutes and when I feel that's he's not going to kiss me anymore, I lose my hands around his neck and take a step back because I don't want to pressure him so much. If not now, maybe some other time. After all, we're husbands and are stuck together for whole life. We have a long way to go.

However, to my surprise, Sky wraps his hands around my waist and pulls me closer to him. I gasp and tighten my hold around his neck. Before I could even know what's happening, he connects his lips with that of mine in a kiss. He kisses me eagerly like a starved person which clearly indicates that he never kissed anyone before because the kiss is just so imperfect and sloppy. Not like I'm experienced but I at least know better than him since I watched in movies and read in books.

Without separating from him, I slowly bring our kiss to a pace, not so slow but not so fast as well. Just the right pace. He gradually gets it. He slowly brings one of his hand up to my neck and cups one of my cheek while the other hand is tightly wrapped around my waist. I gently suck on his lips for a while and then bite which makes him open them. Taking it as a chance, I push my tongue inside and savor the feeling of his breath. He follows my actions as he too nibbles on my lips before giving a light bite and then enters his tongue. I smile while kissing since he's such a fast learner and now doing it properly.

We get so lost in the kiss without separating and I only realise that when I couldn't breath properly and in need of oxygen. I try to pull away but he won't let me instead pulls me more closer to him. As a last resort, I slap on his shoulder and release my lips from his with a force.

"I need air!" I breath out while fanning myself, fanning because that was one hella of a kiss.

"S-sorry." He apologies as he worriedly checks me, "are you okay though?"

"I'm fine." I reply to which he nods.

We both move away from each other and take our time to get back to normal. A while later, I already breath fine and when I look at Sky, his face is red as he's rubbing his nape. I chuckle which makes him look at me.

"Is my baby shy?" I tease him while patting his hair, he's so cute, "the kiss was so good, right?"

He turns more red if that was possible and looks so shy at my words. I'm really enjoying this. I continue to laugh and he gives me looks. I go to continue to tease him more but then it becomes my turn to blush at his next words.

"Yeah, the kiss was good. I didn't expect my wife to be a good kisser." He grins while stressing the word wife.

"Who's your wife, huh?" I question him almost in scream which makes him grin even more.

"Of course, you. You're my wife." He replies and laughs when I glare at him.

"I'm not wife, we're both husbands." I state strongly.

"Oh, really? Then who said 'since it's my husband's success party as his wife, I should be a part of it.' " He repeats my words sarcastically.

"I was just helping you from that lady. Be thankful at least." I can't believe we're arguing right after our kiss.

"True, I was really saved from her because of you, thank you," He finally thanks me which slowly brings a smile on my face, "Eco, my wife."

He laughs as he finishes and I slap him on his shoulder before walking past him and towards the couch.

"Bring me lunch and feed me, I'm hungry." I order him while sitting.

"Aren't you supposed to be the one who brings me lunch?" He queries but walks to the door and picks up the lunch bags that his secretary has left.

He brings the lunch bags and sits next to me. He opens one bag first and starts feeding me. I eat because I'm hungry and also embarrassed with the wife thing. It's not like I hate it or dislike it but it just feels different, in a good way though however it's making me feel shy for reasons I don't know. It's making me feel that the relationship between us is more intimate, like we're already together. I kinda a like it, though I feel it'll also take time for me to get habituated, if at all he continues to tease me, to it and the feelings it's giving me.

"I'm full." I mumble with food in my mouth as I stop Sky from feeding me more.

"Okay." He nods and closes the box, "whatever wife says." He chuckles.

I can't help but stare at him because today has been the most he has smiled during this one month I spent with him. It makes me feel happy since I'm making him happy.

"What's wrong?" He waves his hand in front of my face and makes me snap out of thoughts.

"Huh! Nothing." I shake my head no.

He opens the next bag and starts eating his lunch. As I watch him, I get this feeling to help him eat. To feed him with my hands, just like how he does it to me.

"You're spacing again." His voice makes me stop my staring.

"Baby, I want to feed you like how you're doing to me." I tell him my feelings.

He stops for a moment and looks at me before continues to eat.

"Your hand is hurt, you can't even eat by yourself." He reasons out.

"Then is it okay if I help you once I recover?" I ask with expectations.

"Hmm...if you really want and if any such situations occur. You simply don't need to feed me when I can eat on my own." He shrugs.

"But baby what if I really really, like very really want to feed you?" I move closer to him as I ask.

"If you really really, like very really want then I guess you can." His answer brings a big smile on my face and I pout at his next words as he laughs, "after all as a husband, my duty is to make my wife happy."
