The Enemy

Chapter 9

he lips worked with mine. i could feel my body go soft and tingly. my heads rested on his chest, feeling his heart warm and fastened. the kiss wasn't with tongue. it was just soft and tender.

i pull away from him, my cheeks were hot and flushed. "i like you too, ella." he words were like music to my ears, my body felt so put together like puzzle. i let out an exhale of relief. all i've been worrying and stressing about just left my side.

i stutter against my words, my heart still racing. he soothes my thoughts be rubbing my cheek with his thumb. "i-i don't know what to say."

he shakes his head with a cheeky smile. "you don't have to say a single thing."
i fall into his chest and sink in almost drowning in his warmth. his big arms wrap around me like a bear holding me with his grip. the smell of him, the sound of his heartbeat, even the feeling of the grass beneath us all just fits perfectly.

i feel myself drifting off even it being the middle of the day. he lifts me up and walks me over to my hut, laying me down onto my bed. he crawls next to me, brushing through my hair whilst i get a euphoric sleep i've been craving for ages.

i wake up at night to find him not beside me but at the bonfire. i rub my eyes walking out of my hut, unaware of what i'm about to see.

jenna had moved from gally to minho, they were laughing with slightly flirting with each other. i moved up close to get a better picture until i see chloe look into my direction. she gives me a look before she approached me. "hey you."

i put out a forced grin. i've never been jealous before especially not over a boy.

"you sleep well with minho?" her brow raised at me as she coursed closer and closer as she mimicked thrusting. i push her away, giggling. "it's not like that."
"oh?" i nudges my shoulder.

i clear my throat, laying my eyes back upon minho and jenna, clearly having a good time.
"we kissed and cuddled. it was sweet. until i saw him getting along with jenna."

she hums softly, looking over to them. "doesn't look like minhos having the greatest time."
her attempt to cheer me up striked her as a sweet girl.

i shrug and yawned. "i think i'm going to head off to bed now. it's been a long day."
she glared at me through her lashes, groaning and grabbing my arm, leading me to the bonfire. "you just slept. plus! if you really want to make a man jealous, especially one who's getting a girls attention, you need to play it out."

her hands crossed mine, leading us to the centre of everybody's attention. she grabbed my hips, swaying me across the floor, i quirk a brow. she whispers. "just play along."

i could feel the boys leering all over us, as well as their whistles and chants. dancing with chloe was so fun much and it felt incredible to have someone a girl especially so close in a friendship to be with.

minho stood up, pulling me to the side away from the crowd, leaving chloe to dance with the boys, she winked at me before i switched my attention to minho.
"hey, you sleep well?" he spoke in a gentlemen manner.
i fold my arms and narrow my eyes. "i did actually."
"you having fun with jenna?"

minho chuckled, stepping closer to me. "not as much fun as when i'm with you."
i raise a brow, unfolding my arms. "oh yeah? are you sure?"
"are you jealous?" he hand caressed my waist, i quiver with adrenaline.

i immediately shake my head. he nods his head. the tension in the air was so thick i wish i could just kiss him right in front of jenna to show her.
"i'm quite certain you're jealous."
i shrug. "no. why would i be jealous? unless you're giving me a reason to be jealous, are you?"

my sarcastic responses as a question cause minho to softly chuckle, he pulls me until i'm inches away from his lips. everything in my power was keeping me from leaving a sign on his tongue.
his eyes looked from my eyes to my lips repeatedly. until he finally pulled me in by my chin against his lips.

his soft skin grazed mine. i could hear chloe screaming in the background, but i was too distracted with the muffler from minhos tongue.

fuck. it felt euphoric.

i pull apart from the kiss out of breath. his fingers slid from my chin to my hand, grasping it and kissing it gently.

the late night continued on as usual. i was laying on the ground with my head on minhos stomach, he was resting his hand in mine, caressing my hand with his thumb.

my hand still held his tightly as alby called in a night. minho offered to go to his hut but i really didn't want to be alone. "stay with me." i offered. "you sure?" he queries.
i nodded my head, i see chloe in the background with her sly winking and smirking.

i close the door behind us. i'm not sure if it was awkward or i'm just an awkward person in general.

he began to remove his shirt and i just watched his every move like a spy. he turned to face in with confusion. "you okay?"
i nod my head, gulping.
i slowly crawl onto my bed and pulling myself under my covers.
he rolls over to me, he moves his hand to grab mine. he holds it onto his chest so i could feel his heart race.

he then uses his free hand to gently brush my cheek then slowly pressing his lips to mine. the passion between the small kisses was everything and more.

he begins to toss himself above me gently. his lips pepper kisses against my cheek and towards my neck then to my collarbone.

i groan slightly, he looks up at me. "you alright?"
i shook my head, nervously.
"i don't think i'm ready, i'm sorry."

he smiles softly, the world fell into my heart. "it's okay. we can wait."
