Angel of Mine (Completed)

Chapter 4

4 freaking o’clock couldn’t come fast enough.  I finished my Saturday chores and promised my dad I’ll be home in a decent hour.  I know he’s just worried about me like any good father.  Though I feel the strictness stifling, I can only try to patiently understand what a normal parent would feel.

I dressed in jean shorts and a red button down shirt over a black tank top and my red Vans.  Lathan said comfortable so I felt this was perfect.  He will be here any minute now.

Suddenly, I heard the roar of a powerful engine out front that was turned off as I peeped into the window.  My jaw dropped at the sight of Lathan getting off a silver and black Ducati bike.  

A Ducati?! Really?! How? I was turned on at the sight of him with his sleek black helmet on and as he took it out, my breath hitched at his beautiful face.  He was wearing a plain white muscle shirt that was giving me a glimpse of well toned muscles down the abdominal region and Levi’s jeans that shaped his butt.  Finishing off with a pair of black Converse.  I think I am drooling at the moment.  Snap out of it girl.  You need to get the door.

 

I tried to compose myself before opening the door.  As I did, I beamed at his very presence in my doorstep and said “Hi Lathan!  Wow, I didn’t know you have one of those” as I pointed to the bike. 

He sheepishly ran his hand through his cropped hair and just smiled at me.

“I hope you’re not too scared to ride a bike with me,” he asked me pensively.  He seemed to be nervous all of a sudden. 

  “Are you kidding?  That is just so cool! So if you’re ready, we should get going.”  I quickly locked the door behind me and trailed behind him.  He handed me a black helmet and jumped at the back.

“Ready?” he asks.  And I excitedly nodded and grinned, showing off my teeth.  He shook his head in amusement and turned on the ignition then sped off at a reasonable speed.  Man, this is going to be loads of fun.

 

 

This girl is really a knock out.  I think my jaw literally dropped as soon as I saw her show off those finely shaped legs.  She is just breathtakingly beautiful.  I could hardly concentrate on my driving as I feel her hands holding on to my waist.  I was feeling warm and tingly.  This is going to cap my night after a not so great afternoon.  4’o clock could not come fast enough.  But I’m here with her now where I always wanted to be.  I was going to take her to walk along the beach in Samua and show her the abandoned lighthouse not too far.  I packed some light snacks and hopefully we could just sit and watch the sunset.  Every day I only feel my love grow that I feel my heart would burst.  I fully intend to make this moment last.  If only…

It was only about a 45 minute drive out the city proper and I almost think we are heading to the beach.  I took in all the serenity surrounding me and this warm body I was holding on to.  I guess I can no longer deny it.  I am falling fast in love with Lathan.  I know I told him we’ll take it slow and he respected that, which made me appreciate him more.  We pulled up at the parking lot not too far from the beach proper.  The sound of seagulls and the rush of the ocean waves are calling to us to bask in the feel of being with someone special.  As he stowed our helmets back into the compartment, I was staring at the sea when I felt him lightly nudge me at the small of my back.  He clasped his hand into mine and we walked towards--- a lighthouse!!! Oh my, though it looks abandoned, I feel an excitement bubbling over me because for some reason I love lighthouses and the symbol they carry, to guide ships from losing their way into the blackness of the sea.
