The sun shone through the curtains n made the room light up with beautiful colors. Last night...well technically this morning was perfection. Stephen and I had the most amazing and relaxed time ever, but he still didn't want to open up to me. We sat by the pool, on lounge chairs with a mini table between us. On the table there was around 10 joints which he had just rolled a few minutes before I arrived n a half bottle of Jack Daniels. His beats by Dre speaker sat on the floor by his side, while the music 'Simple things' by Miguel, Future n Chris Brown played softly.
'Light one!' He commanded a few minutes after silence had fallen upon us. I chose a joint at random and lit it up, to my surprise he lit one up himself, he laid back n enjoyed his joint. I did the same, n soon the effects was burning on my body like a sensation, everything slowed down as if time had frozen.
'Are you ok?!' He asked sitting up.
'Yeah, I feel way better now.' I replied and continued to lay back.
'Ok, let's play a game.' He said
'Which one?!' I answered curiously.
'20 questions, you can ask me whatever 10 questions you want and I must answer, and I can ask u 10 question which you must answer. Deal!' He replied n reached out his hand for a hand shake.
'Deal!' I answered n sat up completely ready to interrogate the most mysterious person I know.
'I go, then you, in that order. So first question, are you a virgin?!' He asked.
'Yes.' I answered straight n forward.
'Your turn!' He said
'Why is it so difficult for you to talk to me?!'
'Honestly, I don't want to loose you! My turn, what scares you the most?!'
'Hmmm...I'm scared of being alone, left all alone with no one to pull me together.'
'You?'
'What do you think will make you loose me?!'
'Because of the things I have done, because of who I am.'
'Your turn!' I said and took a sip of the whiskey on the table not reflecting on his answers yet.
'Do you fancy Danny?!' He asked and lit another joint.
'No, we kissed once... That's it! What have you done Steph?!'
'Bad and horrible things. What do you want Bliss?!'
'What do you mean?!' I asked
'That was a question! You wasted one and now we both have one left.' He said with a cheeky look on his face.
'Answer me!' I commanded and took the joint from his hand.
'What's your wildest dream?!' He asked.
'Your out of questions! Ha...well I want to be my own person, I don't want be known as the daughter of so and so, I don't want to be a twin...I just want to be me!'
I answered.
'Final question...make it worth it!' He said.
'Why do you always tell people that I'm yours?!' I asked.
'Because that's my wildest dream! Game over...' He said, chuckled and stared at me.
'Back to reality now!' I said and resumed to my previous position.
My eyes felt heavy as I stared at the stars, he took a sip of the whiskey then stood up and removed his shirt.
'What are you doing?!' I asked
'Going for a swim, wanna join?!' He offered, but I refused. He jumped in n almost splashed water all over me.
'Come on...don't be a party pooper Desai!' He said and ran his fingers through his hair, he looked so sexy, I couldn't resist,I removed the dress I was wearing so that I was only in my undies, and slowly walked over to the pool. He came closer, eying my every move, watching me like a predator watches its prey. His eyes were dark, he helped me into the pool, the water was warm. We stood together only inches away from each other, I took his hands and placed it around my waist, then I wrapped my legs around his waist and pulled him close. His eyes grew even darker, he pulled me closer and tightened his grip. We were closer enough that I could feel his breath on my face, his heart beat was off the hook and so was mine. He held me there for a while and rested his head on my shoulder, now I could feel his breath on my neck, it felt so painful yet so beautiful. Suddenly,his lips connected with my neck, I moaned slowly and softly.
Gosh! The feeling was sensational, he continued to place soft kisses everywhere under my neck. Fuck! I wanted him, now, I didn't care what he had done. I just wanted him to make me feel like this forever. His touch was so good making me never want to leave. He stopped, pulled me away from him so he could see my face, and now it was my turn to show him how bad this sensation was burning inside of me. I placed on kiss on his cheek, he twitched, I placed another kiss lower, on his jaw line, he breathed harder, another one lower on his neck, he pulled me away.
'Stop!' He commanded.
I removed my legs from around him, and as I was about to walk away from him, he pulled me in and started to kiss me, hard, passionately, with one hand on my waist and the other on my face. I kissed him back, pulling him closer, I wrapped my legs around his waist again, it was like fireworks blowing up inside of me. My hands were on his back, I felt a scar, I slowly traced it, and he pulled away again.
'What's that?!' I asked
'Nothing, don't touch it.' He answered.
'Let me in!' I said I turned him around so that I could see the scar better. It was all the way from his neck to half way down his spine. I traced it slowly with kisses, and with each kiss Stephen relaxed and let out a sigh of relief. I was glad that he felt at ease and that he might finally let me in. He quickly turned around, lift me in his arms and carried me out of the pool, not one second did his gaze leave mine. He placed me carefully on one of the lounge chairs, then he was on top of me, kissing every inch of me from my ears to my neck, to my fingers tips, my tummy to my toes. Not once did he remove my bra or my panties. I sat there feeling each kiss he placed on my skin, running my hands through his hair n moaning softly. I wanted him to be the one, I wanted Stephen to be my first because I will never love another the way I love Stephen.
He kissed my forehead once more before he said
'I will only have you once your completely mine!' He smiled and kissed me on the lips, it was a long and hard kiss, as if it was going was to  be the last.

We fell asleep outside, I was laying my head on his chest, I could hear his heart beat, I think I dozed off because I woke up in his bed and he wasn't there. I checked the clock and it was noon already, gosh that was some good sleep.
I grabbed on of his t.shirts n threw it over my head, I couldn't believe that I fell asleep next to him only in a bra and my panties.
I rushed to the kitchen, I could smell waffles, Stephen made the most amazing chocolate chip waffles and I was starving.
'Morning beautiful!' He said as I peeped through the kitchen.
'Morning you!' I said and rushed to his side, he bend over to kiss me?! I was surprised but I kissed him back.
He wanted to show me how to make the waffles, he placed one hand on my waist and the other guided my hand to make the waffle.
'Flip it babe!' He said
'Babe?!' I asked curiously.
'Sorry, it slipped!' He apologized
'No, its fine babe!' I replied and he smiled, it was so beautiful.
After breakfast was ready we sat outside by the pool and ate in silence, we kept sneaking glances at each other.
'What?!' I said sipping my coffee.
'Do you remember what happened last night?!' He asked smiling.
'Its hard not too, I had fun with you!' I replied
'I did too,' he sighed
'Don't shut me out again. What's wrong?!' I asked.
'I'm going baby shopping today, with Chloe!' He said and a frown filled his face, but he quickly forced it away.
'Really?!' I replied, trying not to sound irritated.
'Will you do me the honor?!' He asked
'Of being your bride?! Sure!' I replied jokingly.
'Really?!' He said and his face lit up.
'Urhmm...yeah!' I replied n blushed.
'Do you want to get married? Like someday?!' He asked
'Well, yeah..' I replied not wanting to look at him.
'Anyways, why can't she shop on her own?!' I asked quickly to change the subject.
His expression changed in a matter of seconds.
'I don't know!' He answered.
After those weird conversations, I went to take a shower, at my place of course, and when I got there, a girl with blond hair was on my front porch. I didn't notice at first who it was but walking towards her made me realize that it was Stephen's baby momma; Chloe.

Words can not begin to explain how annoyed and irritated I was to see her face, she was probably one of the reasons why Stephen couldn't move on.
'Bliss, thank god you're here. I wanted to have a word with you!' She said when I approached her, her hands were on her tummy, which was big and....well huge!
'What is it?!' I asked a nicely as possible.
'I was wondering if maybe you would like to attend my baby shower...you know it's going to be all girls and your so close to Stephen that it would be an honor to have you there.' She stated.
'Urhm....well...I don't think that's such a good idea...' I replied feeling guilty.
'Well, think about it.' She said and suddenly Stephen burst through the front door.
'Ladies! Shall we?!' He said looking rather confident.
'She's coming with us?' Asked Chloe with a little hunt of disappointment on her face.
'Yes Chloe...she is my girlfriend!' He replied then quickly had one arm around my waist...I turned as red as a tomato as he led the way to the car. Such a gentleman he could be, he opened my door then helped me into his Jeep, then helped Chloe onto the backseat. Honestly, I was rather shocked by the fact that I was sitting next to him! I wasn't  expecting it, Chloe turned red and I think that was what Stephen had wanted in the first place. We drove to the mall, and Stephen made small talk in the car with me as if everything was perfect. She tried so hard to get Stephen to give an opinion about the things she wanted to get, but all Stephen did was talk about having a baby with me, "A baby boy, his name would be Ethan...he would have your beautiful eyes, your smile.." he said and stroked my cheek, Chloe stormed away from us and Stephen laughed his head out.I tried to help her pick out pink outfits for the baby but she barely acknowledge my existence.

"Pick whatever you want, I'll pay!" he ordered then took my hand and led me out of the shop. We didn't go far from the shop, we stopped but a smoothie stall and bought two mango smoothies, and stood in a position where we could not see her.

"Did you ever take acting classes in college?" I asked as I took a sip of my smoothie.

"Honestly, I should have.." he said and chuckled. I was terrified about these past few days, Stephen had been super nice, super sweet, super amazing, the perfect gentleman, i surely didn't want it to stop but eventually, I knew it would end. Each day we spent together just proved in so many ways how much I was falling for him all over again, how I was in love with every inch of his face, body, soul. I had a glimpse of how we would be in the future, but it was only for a second. The fact remains that every good thing must comes to an end!
