Still don't know my name

Chapter 13

LINA

I feel internally so happy, my insides are churning with giddiness. I am moving in with my girlfriend. Oh Gosh, it's a big step and I don't have any sort of insecurities, anxiety whatsoever. This feels right, like it's supposed to happen now or later, it feels so right.

I opened my eyes after a long night of peaceful and cuddly sleep. Zee is dreamingly beautiful, snuggled like a monkey to me and smiling so hard. I bet she is dreaming about us.

I dipped my head down and started kissing her jaw, trailing through her neck and collarbone, I returned to her neck and started sucking her smooth skin, I hear her breath hitching. I stopped and trained my eyes upwards and watched her watching me with so many heat her eyes.

"Morning, sweet bean. I love you." I declared.

She chuckled and hugged me so hard; I think I broke my ribs. Just kidding, I love her hugs, snuggling with her, kissing her, teasing her. I just want to kiss her face all day long, until she is swollen with my kisses.

I did as I pleased to do, I kissed them for I don't know, minutes, hours days, when I pulled back, her face is bamboozled and intimidating. I smiled calming my nerves.

"Baby, what happened, are you okay?" she asked.

I nodded, feeling self-conscious with my comportment. I blushed so hard; I can feel the heat gathered near my cheekbones. Zee chuckled. I kiss her first sometimes, but I am almost coy during PDA.

"I...I am so lucky to be able to say you are mine, so lucky to be the one who gets to hold and kiss you." I burst out.

Her eyes wide in surprise and then they sat up and dragged me up and kissed me so intense, I melted under their touch. She pulled me in again and hugged me again. She dragged my palm on top hers, braiding them together. I glanced down towards the criss-crossed mess of our hands and smiled with tons of emotions. I kissed her forehead and played the strands of her hairs. They are tangled after the night of sleep but still beautiful and enthralling.

"Cat, I love you so much, Sweetheart it hurts, why are you so Perfect?" she mumbled.

I tittered, "Sweet bean, you are so sweet, no one's perfect, I just am so glad you are mine; you are everything I have been searching since forever."

She shook her head and kept her head on my shoulder, "I spoke with Bran last night, about you moving in, and baby she is so fucking happy, she literally snorted when I carefully asked. Geez, she said she is having you for herself, while you teach her how to bake." She slurred.

I chinned up her head and grazed her beautiful green eyes, "Sweet bean, she is happy with me moving in? Oh god, I will happily teach her some baking tips, and I need to clearly learn how to cook." I kissed her swiftly.

She glared at me, "You are a perfect cook, honey. You are amazing baker. I wish I would have at least five percentage of the talent you possess." She grumbled.

I think about my plans, I have been meaning to tell Zee, how I want to open a bakery, I guess this is the time. I know she'll support me no matter what.

"So, you know I love baking." I paused and saw her reaction, she nodding furiously like I am talking nonsense. LOL. "Okay, yeah so, I am thinking, I should open my OWN BAKERY with my own creations. I talked to my dad, he'll help me with the initial investment, and I can use my internship money for working capital."

He is smiling intensely like radiating his inner sunlight. I am so relieved seeing her reaction to my new dream. "Damn, this is fucking fantastic Lina, oh my god, my girl will have her own bakery, I am so proud, baby." She stood up and picked me up and swinged me in the room.

I snorted when she laid me down, she kissed me everywhere on my face and then we heard footsteps approaching I jerked back, God we are still at her parents' house.

She chuckled and grabbed my hands and pulled me through the door towards the living room.

We reached the living; her mom is doing some sort of Zumba Yoga. I greeted her good morning and proceeded towards the Kitchen, my favourite place of any house but definitely their kitchen is one of the darlings.

I find out her dad lingering on the gas stove, his back towards me and I wonder what is he cooking? Because the aroma is breath-taking. I reached beside him and nudged his shoulder and asked, "What are you cooking? It smells absolutely delicious."

He smiled. Zee got her smile from his dad. Their smile is beautiful, lips stretching, and the heat gathered in their eyes.

"I am cooking something I always cook on Christmas morning, honey." He paused. "Merry Christmas, Sweetheart, did you sleep well?"

"Merry Christmas Draxx. Does this dish have a name?" I asked enthusiastically.

"Actually, I never named it, once after in college I was stuck at my hostel because of trainings and all, so I gathered some things from the canteen and requested the owner to cook me something, it turns out so sweet and delicious. I always cook this every Christmas. Zee in fact loves it. She says, she can taste Christmas. This is my secret recipe." He winked.

I chuckled and sniffed. It really smells amazing. I chatted a bit with his dad when he entered the room and hugged me from behind. I stiffened, in front of his father, I blushed so hard. She kissed my check and whispered, "Don't worry, darling, he is PDA king." But she withdrew and clutched my hand in a smooth grip.

"Pa, you know, Cat is going to open a bakery. I am so happy." She excitedly beamed.

I shifted sub consciously, remembering Draxx presence, I held his gaze and saw pure strength in them. He patted my shoulder and hugged me. "Oh, that's something you should definitely do. Your baking is amazing. If you ever need any help, financially, or something, you can always ask me, honey." He encouraged.

"Thank you so much, Draxx but my dad is helping me with initial investment, and I will be using my internship money for the working capital. I studied business, I will still help Zee compose our songs, but I love baking and opening a bakery will be absolute bliss." I beamed with excitement.

We spent the Christmas, laughing, watching Christmas movies, drinking hot coco, making love and dreaming of our coming future and the happiness waiting for us.
