Ellipsis

Chapter 14

I was staring at the man's back as we ride downtown on his big bike. Despite the cold air brushing upon my cheeks, I am well aware of the crimson tint over my face right now. Well, who wouldn't blush like that? I'm gay and one hell of a hot guy just popped up in front of me, declaring that I'm his boyfriend!

This is one of my dreams, alright but this is too sudden and seems too good to be true.

"You know, if you feel really cold, you can hug me." I heard him say. "Besides, I'm your boyfriend." He added with a chuckle.

I gaped at him and if my eyes were lasers, it probably made a hole in his head. "I'm okay." I replied awkwardly. The feeling inside me towards him is a little disturbing. I have been really affected by his looks right away and he's got this scent that I cannot stop my nose from sniffing him-discreetly that is. But there is also something inside me which tells me to get away. Perhaps it's one of my instincts telling me not to trust someone immediately especially a guy as handsome as him who claims that he's my boyfriend that I don't even remember!

He may be hot but I guess, I'm going to trust my instincts on this one.

"You can stop by the intersection." I told him.

"But your turn is on the next one." He said.

He seemed to know a lot about me and he does know where I live. Now this is definitely disturbing. "I-uh-I need to buy something first."

"Well, I can just come with you and we'll go together to your place."

"No!" I exclaimed and cleared my throat after realizing that I sounded too scared. "I mean, I can manage and besides, I really feel like walking home from here."

"Okay. If that's what you want." He said and pulled over.

I hastily hopped off the bike. "Uh, thanks for the ride." I said and put on the best smile I could. And then I handed him the jacket he lent me.

"Keep it." He said.

"No, you need this more than I do. Plus, you are just wearing a shirt." A thin one, I might have to add because your pecks are too clear.

Wow, for real Allen? You are still checking him out? I glared at myself-in my head.

He chuckled. "I don't feel cold." He said.

"If you don't then you are not human." I said.

He laughed which in turn made me laugh too-an awkward one that is. "Just keep it okay. It will keep you warm in my absence." He said. And there he goes again with that smooth mouth of his.

"Okay." I muttered and started to walk away.

"Allen." He called so I have to turn and face him. "Can I have a good night kiss from my boyfriend?"

I stared at him, stunned by the words that came out of his mouth. And after a moment of silence, he burst out laughing. "You should see your face."

I just rolled my eyes and in that short moment, a flicker of some image came to me. This man, who is laughing in front of me now is the same man I was laughing with before. But the more I tried to grasp it, the more it drifted into nothingness.

I smiled, this time, it's more genuine. I walked towards him, pulled him up close and gave him a small kiss in his cheeks. And that silenced him.

"Give me time and I will ponder all of this." With that, I took my leave in haste. It just occurred to me that I kissed a guy I barely know. The only consolation is he is undeniably hot!
