EXES III

A good friend of mine was getting married and I decided to invite Rio with me as my date. The wedding took place in Malta, so it was like a holiday for us.

We were sitting at our table, taking full advantage of the open bar when a slow song started playing and the newlyweds made their way up to the dance floor.

It had been six months since Rio and I had officially started dating and everything was perfect. It was like we hadn't spent all that time apart; we had also grown as people. He was emotionally intelligent enough to fully understand where things went wrong last time and I had trusted that things wouldn't go left again.

We were in our own little world all night. We were being so clingy with each other and I didn't feel bad about it for one second.

"That's gonna be us one day," Rio whispered in my ear and I blushed beyond comprehension. He smiled to himself and placed his hand on my lap.

Before I could respond, the rest of the guests were invited onto the dance floor to join the bride and groom. He stood up and held his hand out for me to take which I did. He led us to the floor and placed his hands on my waist. I rested my forearms on his shoulders and looked up at him.

It felt like it was just us in the room and I was fighting everything within me to not kiss him. The atmosphere was just so romantic and I loved it.

Rio and I swayed slowly in time to the music as we looked into each other's eyes.

"Did I mention, you look beautiful tonight," he whispered in my ear after leaning forward and I smiled. He had. So many times that I had lost count but his compliments were more than welcome. There was this sexual tension that we had to put up with until we were alone. I couldn't wait to have him to myself.

"Thank you," I whispered in his ear and rested my head on his chest. "I'm glad you're with me again," I said quietly. I felt a gentle kiss on my head and I shut my eyes softly.

The song came to an end and an upbeat song played. I felt Rio's laugh and leaned up head up to look at him.

"You wanna take a walk?" He asked and I nodded. We stopped by the bar once more before leaving to go outside. He held me by my waist and led us out of the hotel where the party was being held.

The warm summer breeze blew gently and being able to see the stars brought me joy beyond belief. The sound of the sea was calming and it made me even more aware of the fact that I was tipsy.

We walked and walked until we came across a bench. I stopped and sat down and took a sip of my drink. I had a smile on my face that I couldn't shake; what Rio said played in my mind. Over and over again. He sat beside me and his eyes met mine.

"You're cute," he smiled and pecked my lips before taking a sip of his drink. He matched my smile and pulled me closer to him.

We sat on the bench talking about everything and nothing. Time flew when I was with him. I was comfortable enough to be my true self with him which was something that couldn't be said for my other exes.

"Rio, we better head back inside," I sighed and began to stand up. I suddenly felt Rio's hand hold onto my wrist; he pulled me back down and kissed me deeply. I didn't stop him from letting the kiss become steamier and more heated. There was passion behind it and as much as I didn't want it to end, we needed to go back inside. "Rio," I whispered in between kisses.

He smiled against my lips and bit my bottom lip softly as he pulled away. I smiled and opened my eyes slowly. He licked his lips and stood up. He held my hand as we walked back inside the hotel. We returned to the banquet hall to see guests leaving. We didn't realise how long we had spent outside.
