The details of our hideout had probably been given by Sam but who could've attacked, and where did they manage to get a bomb?

We were running behind Omar, the distant sound of gunfire was quieting as we went further down the corridor into the secret tunnel that no one had heard about.

Within seconds we were back outside, the sky darkening as the air grew colder. We had exited through a back door and there was a van with a strange cleaning logo emblazoned on the side.
I looked at Omar and he flashed me a knowing grin before continuing.

"I was planning on using the secret door so I told them to park in this area."

The door slid open and we all went through, taking the seats that were empty.

There was no windows so it was less likely that we would get caught. The men in the front were dressed up as cleaners and they drove slowly, like we weren't people who were running away from a hideout that was now being destroyed as a war took place inside it.
And the wall in front of us separated the space with us and the front passengers.

"You can carry on, we need to know as much as possible."

I nodded my head and closed my eyes, reminding myself of where I had stopped at before sinking into the huge seat and calming my nerves.

He came closer to me and I could see tears in his eyes. I never knew guys cried, I was surprised to see him in that state.

"I've been having dreams about you, as soon as I set my eyes on you... that's never happened to me before. Ever." He choked those exact words through the sob that had escaped.

I was having that weird feeling again, making my stomach do somersaults and I lowered my head, embarrassed, shocked.

The next words shocked me even more, I've never heard those words being said to me ever. They were strange, but it stirred something inside of me.

"I love you." He had tears in his eyes, I thought he didn't know how old I was so I decided to break it to him.

"I'm only a kid. I'm fourteen and how old are you? How do you even know that you actually love me?"

He looked deep into my eyes, I was mesmerised by those gems, looking back at me.

"Age is just a number. You're not a kid if you're mature and you are much better than any other fourteen year old, you managed to make a sixteen year old swoon over you."He gave a gorgeous smile before telling me the rest.

"I'm eighteen now. And how I know it's love? Let me tell you, love is a feeling that you can't explain. You get it out of nowhere and sometimes, it scares you, makes you angry or confused till you cry you're heart out. It makes you cry like a child. You don't know why you feel that way until one day... you just understand.

You can't explain it but it makes sense. You feel it and know it. Love will only reveal itself if you have finally met your soulmate, the one you are destined to be with. And there can only be one true love.

I know you're the only girl I've ever loved. I've went mad after not seeing you and I hated it. You just kept coming back to me in my dreams and they lead me to this place."

I knew he meant it, he was crying at the same time as speaking and he held me so tightly, like I was going to run away.

I feel myself reacting to his touch as he slides his hand down my arm, sending sparks into my body and I shiver, it's a weird feeling I've never felt before.

When I look up at him, deep into his eyes, concentrating and trying to decipher his emotions and figuring out whether he's lying or not, I sigh. A beautiful feeling washed over me and I smile to myself.

'He's telling the truth', I say to myself mentally.

When I look back up he's also smiling, I wrap my arms around his waist and hide my face in his chest as he wraps his own arms around my waist and pulls me closer, resting his cheek on the top of my head, taking in my scent and sighing in relief.

"I love you, Yulia. I love you so much." He was happy now but something else was visible in his voice... fear. I don't know why he was scared. But his grip on my waist tightened.
When I looked up at him, he didn't even bother stopping himself, he crashed his lips onto mine, making me gasp in surprise at the unpredictable action. His tongue slid into my mouth and began to fight my own, I completely forgot about the world around us as I began to fight him for dominance.

Our tongues massaged each other and fought and clashed and eventually, I gave in, allowing him to explore my mouth. His lips were so soft and warm and perfectly shaped, they fitted perfectly against my own lips as they moved in sync.

His hands moved to cup my face as my own trailed to the back of his neck and into his beautiful locks of straight silken hair. I tugged at the gorgeous strands hard enough to make him groan in pleasure. I felt him smirk against my lips before biting gently at my bottom lip, making me moan.

He broke the kiss to look at me, both of us panting for breath with swollen lips, my uniform was a mess as well as his hair.

He smirked at me and I couldn't resist the urge to pounce back and crash my lips onto his this time. I heard him chuckle quietly before lifting me off the ground slightly to deepen the kiss.

That was my first kiss ever and now I knew that what I had been feeling this whole time, was love.

I heard a tooting sound, probably someone blowing their nose and instantly I snapped my eyes open, sitting up.

"Oh shit! Did I just...say that... out loud?" My eyes widened as I begged for it to have been a dream.

"Yep. Too much detail. I don't want that much." Liam was laughing uncomfortably now as I sunk into the seat, covering my face with my hands.

"It's alright. We all have those moments. Once Liam accidentally said some shit out loud and it lasted months. 'When we say "eat shit" to a stupid person, would they actually do it?' Once we all started laughing, then he came back to life. Man! What the fuck do you be talking about?" With that, Omar began to roar with insane laughter, I've never heard a laugh worse than his.

Whilst Liam glared at him, I couldn't help the small smile tug at my lips.
