"What Are You Waiting For?" || ORIGINAL STORY.

Chapter Sixty-Two.

Tanya's POV.

"Are you really going to stick to me like glue, Love?" I whispered to Darren, who wouldn't let me go..

I was just spending the night here 'cause Derrick, Claire, and Miriam all wanted to watch a movie together, but Darren then scooped me out and took me to his room..

And now.. yeah.

Darren chuckled, wrapping his strong arms around my waist and pulling me even closer.

"You're not getting away from me, Sweetheart." 

He leaned in, his lips brushing against my ear as he spoke.

A shiver ran down my spine as his breath tickled my skin, sending tingles down my neck.

Despite my initial playful protests, I found myself melting into his embrace.

"You're so clingy," I chided softly, but there was no real resistance in my voice.

He just smiled and gave me a kiss on the forehead, making a mwah sound.

I couldn't help but giggle at his affection, feeling a mix of amusement and affection in my chest.

I leaned into his chest, wrapping my arms around his waist and snuggling closer.

"The AC is making the room too cold.." I said quietly against his chest.

Darren chuckled at my comment but immediately tightened his arms around me.

"Don't worry, I'll keep you warm," He replied, nuzzling his face into my hair.

He held me close against his warm body, creating a cosy cocoon.

The heat from his body quickly seeped into my own, effectively cancelling out the chill from the AC.

I hummed contentedly, enjoying the comfort of being in his arms.

"You're like my own personal heater," I teased, gently poking him in the ribs.

He let out a huff, pretending to be annoyed by my jab.

"Hey, I'm not just a heater," He protested, though the playful tone in his voice gave him away.

He then placed a kiss on my forehead again.

"But I'll gladly be your personal heater anytime, Sweetheart."

I giggled at his mock protest, knowing full well that he enjoyed being my heat source.

"I know, I know. You're more than just a heater," I said, looking up at him with a playful smile.

As he leaned in to kiss my forehead again, I lifted my face, catching his lips in a surprise kiss.

Darren seemed surprised for a moment, but then he pulled me even closer and deepened the kiss, his arms wrapping firmly around my waist.

As we kissed, I could feel the heat radiating from his body mixing with my own, creating an addictive mixture of warmth and desire.

After what seemed like an eternity, we finally pulled apart, both of us slightly breathless.

Darren's eyes were bright as he looked down at me, a mixture of love and possessiveness in his gaze.

He gently brushed a strand of hair away from my face, his touch sending an electric thrill down my spine.

"You caught me off guard there, Sweetheart," He said, his voice slightly gravelly.

He nuzzled his face into the crook of my neck, placing soft kisses along my skin and savouring my scent.

I couldn't help but shiver at his touch, my body responding to his affection involuntarily.
