The Heartless Billionaire (EBS 3) [UNEDITED]

Chapter 9: Loving you secretly..

"I keep thinking of how much I love watching you from afar or close, how good you look when you smile. How much I love your laugh.

I day-dream about you off and on, replaying pieces of our conversation, or argument, laughing at funny things that you said or did. I've memorized your face and the way that you look at me. I catch myself smiling again at what I imagine. I wonder what will happen the next time we are together and even though nothing will come out of this, I know one thing for sure... I don't care, I cherish every moment I have with you." - Unknown

Lauren's POV

Zandros!..

His eyes was locked on mine and I felt like the world just stopped. The people on my peripheral vision dissipated and there's only us.

The love I've been trying to bury, rushed through me like a lighting and it's burning inside of me intensely. My chest was pumping so hard that I thought my heart would leapt out of my chest any moment. It was overwhelming feelings. I just realized how much I have missed him. I wanted to launched myself onto him and just hold him and feel him.

He still looks devastatingly gorgeous. His god-like jawline, heart melting smirk that I missed so much. His buttery smooth skin, his bone structure of his face, that was undeniably perfect. The heavenly composition of his nose, eyes, mouth, and chin are just too hard to ignore. He is beyond irresistible.

I could feel, my legs are turning jelly with how he stared at me. His presence really affects me that no other man does. I felt that burning sensation runs through my body with the intensity of his gaze. Undressing me with his eyes.

I like how he made me feel. That look that make me feel like, I'm the most beautiful girl in the world. And it's only him who can ignite that passion within me.

We are staring at each other with the same intensity. Just our eyes talks. I could feel my eyes starting to welled up with the mixed emotions, that was too much to bear.

Yes, It's always been him and he will always be.

God I missed him so badly. Did he ever miss me too?

His eyes was showing no emotions. It hurts to see him that he wasn't even happy to see me. He was just staring at me blankly. Does he even remember me? The thought made me cringed inwardly.

Damn him, he was the one who left without talking to me, not even a single word if when he's coming back or where on earth did he go??

"Are you ok?" Mario whispered close to my ears, and I realized he was holding my waist and was almost carrying me. He followed my eyes and now he was looking at him.

"Ye..yeah.!" I stammered, with my voice faltered.

"You're shaking! Let's seat. Explain it to me later why are you staring at Zandros Mailov.." He continued watching me closely, with his curious eyes gazing at me. He assisted me until I got settled to our respective chairs. I'm just glad that we are not sharing the same tables with Zandros. Although, theirs was next to ours and I have a good view of him. I looked at Mario when his last words sunk in my head. I was lost in my thoughts that I didn't realized he was referring to Zandros.

Oh no!! I have no plans of sharing it yet, not now.

I could feel Zandros eyes boring into me. I was trying so hard to composed myself, and not be affected with his presence. But my resolve is getting weaker each seconds. I hate it when he made me feel weak. My whole system is in a riot. My head was a blur. Clouded with just the thought of him. The memories of our kiss that night, flashed in my head. I could still feel his soft yet firm lips on mine. That kiss that I dreamed of every night. It just felt like yesterday.
