My heart beats faster from the minute he asked me about 'us'. Did I hear it right, he's talking about 'me' not his ex?
"You sure, you're not talking about your ex?" I asked him.
"No. 'Us' babe, us. You and I... I am serious this time."
That left me speechless. I shyly looked away as I am running out of words.
"Is it possible for us to happen?" he asked me again.
Gosh, why is it that everything is so romantic this time? He's asking me this in front of a beautiful sunset and all of these is making me blush.
I looked at him and he's waiting eagerly for my answer. What can I say?
"It depends on you," I softly answered. He looked at me smiling and instantly I felt my heart melted.
"What can I do to make you like me?" he asked.
Isn't it obvious that I like you fool?
"You know what, before you think of 'us', get well first... finish your fish," I said pointing at his food.
"Please, tell me," he begs.
"I've noticed that after you've seen me with just my undies, you started acting like that. Let's get real, you're just saying that because you want to taste me, do you?" I bravely asked him.
"At first, I felt the lust but then I realized it's more than that. I am interested to get to know you and sex would be great but I wonder, what if my 'forever' is you?"
I laughed a little, so there is a man believing in 'forever' too. I am amused.
"What if the rescuers found us and we get back to the real complicated world, would you still want me? For sure you have many girls out there waiting for you."
"What if yeah, there are many girls waiting for me, what would you feel? Would you feel jealous?" he teased narrowing his look on me.
"No," I immediately responded even if the answer is yes.
"Really?" he raised his brow not wanting to believe me.
I nodded smiling.
"I will feel bad if you didn't feel jealous. I want you to want me babe," he said.
Gosh his words are making me weak.
He suddenly leaned closer to my side and smiled saying, "Thank you for taking care of me."
We then quietly watched the sunset and I am just so glad that it's clearer to me now that he really likes me for what I am even if he doesn't still know me enough. Though it seems that he looks alright right now I bet his leg is still hurting.
"How are you feeling right now?" I asked him as we prepare to lie down under the shelter.
"Cold," he said.
