THE WAY I LOVED YOU
ARJUN
She kissed me. I was kissing her back.
Ever since I saw Adira in the office that day, I wanted to know how her soft and curvy body would feel in my arms, how her plump lips would taste, what sounds she would make. When she kissed me finally, it was like a wet dream come true. She was so much better than all the fantasies I had of her.
The knowledge of Ayan's infidelity weighed heavily on my heart. I questioned whether I should even care anymore. After all, Ayan's actions had caused immense pain and heartbreak to Adira, the woman I loved. In that moment, the world around faded into insignificance. The opinions and expectations of others no longer held sway over my heart. All that mattered was love. So, in that precious moment, I decided to give in.
"Fuck it", I groaned.
I held her more tightly. Her mouth moved against mine as we both grabbed at any part of each other we can cling to. Kissing her felt like a beautiful dream, from which I never wish to wake up.
But she was definitely underneath my hard body, with her tongue swirling with my own and her breasts pressing to my chest. I took her bottom lip between my teeth and sucked it into my mouth. She moaned my name so perfectly again and again. Her taste was sweet and addictive, just like the whole of her.
Suddenly a loud lightning sound broke us apart. She let go in an instant and broke the kiss. Her cheeks flushed, pink lips swollen and her hair was messy. And she still looked beautiful in the aftermath.
It didn't take me much time to understand what was going through her mind right now. I could see it all over her face.
Regret. Shame. Guilt
But I knew she wanted this to happen as much as me. The dance at the club, the laughter, the karaoke, the whole five days- changed everything between us. Her performance had a profound effect on me. It wasn't just her voice or her stage presence that drew me in, but the way she bared her soul through her music. In that moment, I saw a glimpse of the beauty that lay within her. There was an undeniable pull that I couldn't ignore.
I felt myself falling for deeply, the woman who took my breath away.
In that karaoke bar, I realized that love had found me when I least expected it.
She could act like this can't happen but deep down I am aware that she's just fighting herself against the possibility of us.
“I have to go,” she murmurs.
I stepped back to let her go. “Don't. Just talk to me, Adira.”
