CHAPTER THIRTY NINE: WHEN I FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU

I am drooling at how handsome Adam is, though he is majestically clothed, I can still see his well-defined curves flexing on his every move, I feel like melting when he caught me staring and just smirks that gorgeous smirk only Adam Levine can pull. This experience is very overwhelming, so overwhelming I really feel the urge to thank the man who made this unforgettable moments happen, but I'll deal with him later, right now I just want to indulge on how sexy Adam is!

After five songs, endless photo session and a few exchange of words with some people mostly with the bride and groom, they bid us goodbye and the party returned to its real program, but everybody are all smiles and are in good mood.

I made my way to the bar where I spotted him earlier while I am fantasizing about Adam, unfortunately he wasn't there anymore.Feeling suddenly sad, I walk my way back to our table; my serenade was moved in later in the program, for the bride and groom's first dance hasn't still happened. On my way back, I bump with the best man, though he still looks composed, I can smell he reeks of alcohol that he has already consume, I just smile politely at him and walk farther but he's too insistent that he totally blocked my way, he looks composed but the words he says are in blur.

"Guys meet my new girl, hey!" he says tipsily, I tried to dodge his upcoming arm but he succeed on landing it on my shoulder, I shrug him off and tried to move away but I am at the moment trap to his 'circle of friends'. They were all looking at me expectantly but then someone's voice shoot relief to me,

"Babe? There you are. I've been looking for you everywhere." Harold moves suave breaking the tension that I know he senses, but the drunken best man seems to really get the alcohol up to his head because he eyed Harold intimidating while the latter just look at him flat.

"You!? " Was the only word he said because gladly, Carlos seemed to sense that his brother went overboard again with alcohol. I walk silently beside Harold, who has his arm snaked protectively at my waist, when we are finally out of anyone's earshot,

"I just turned around and you're out mingling with another man." The level of accusation in his voice automatically sent me to be melodramatic,

"Excuse me Sir!" I emphasize the sarcasm on the salutation, "I am stopped and trapped in a circle of ill-willed men then here you are judging me as if I kissed any of those frogs?! That's how judgemental you are now?" I didn't mind the tear that just freely flow,

"I feel infringe, because there I was again, within a circle of people who has nothing good intentions for me and here you are, thinking you'll save me..."

"Isn't it what I always do? Saving you?" he looks at me defeated, I dab my cheeks with my hands and was about to walk away when he pulled me to an embrace, he taps my back lightly, the beat of his heart matches how hard he breathes,

"Sorry. I- I am just jealous... And only God knows how much I missed you." I embrace him back, we let ourselves indulge with each other, I miss being this physical with him, his familiar warmth that always calms me,

"But you should realize you still have a fault to fix." He breathe harder this time, but I just can't let it take too long for him and his mom to be finally be in good terms,

"He loves you. There was never a day that she didn't think of you..."

"That's too easy to say, I know I hurt her and her adopted."

"You know?" I asked too shocked,

"Stalker remembers?" I giggle at his way of emphasizing his special skill, finally a shy smile drawn at his lips,
