..Keeping My Bestfreind's Heart.. (Lucky Aces) Book 1: For The Love Of AC

Part 36: Runaway

AC's POV

"AC, runaway...with me"

I don't know if I heard right. I looked at him straight to his eyes. I wanted to know if he's serious or what.

I didn't say anything. We're not dancing anymore, rather were only standing. Just when I'm about to asked him to repeat what he had said.

He grab my hands and pulled me along with him. We're running and pushing ourselves to the exit.

I heard someone screaming my name, but I didn't give a care. All I know Lucky is holding my hands tight and dragging me. Now I'm really thankful I'm not wearing heels, or else it will be impossible for me to run fast.

We are already out in the venue when we catch our breath. But still, he didn't let go of my hands.

After our breath back normally, we started to walked through the highway.

"Lucky where are we going?"

"Nothing in particular"

"You're not serious right?"

"Sadly, I am"

"We're in the Avenue and we're not yet familiar with our way"

"I'm willing to be astray, as long as you're with me" he said looking at me.

That made my heart skip so fast.

We continue walking and approaches a small Park. We headed to one of benches their and seated. Still, Lucky is holding my hands.

"Ahm..Lucky you can let go of my hands now"

"No, I wanted to be this way, for I can feel nobody will take you away from me"

I just let him, well, I love the feeling too.

After a moment, I felt the wind from the cold night touches my skin. I'm cold so I shake a little.

When Lucky notice it, he took off his suit and hang it on my shoulder.

"Here, feel better?" he asked after

"Yeah..thank you"

We were silence for a while when I decided to broke the silence.

"Why we're here, I mean why we're running away?"

It took him a while to answer, maybe his weighing his words.

"I want to be with you, even it means abducting you away from him"

"Hey, I go with you with my own will, nobody is pushing me"

He looked at me smile.

"And why you come with me, or should I say why you run along with me?"

"Hey! you dragged me along" and I let go of a little laugh.

We talked random things, no scratch that, we're catching the time we misses each other. Time passes by we barely notice. The night is getting late.

"I think we need to go home"

He look at his watched and let go of a smile. I think we talked to much, it's already 11. I'm about to stood up when he grab my hands back and embraces me tight..so tight..

By instinct I hug him back. We're in that position for a minute. I could hear his breathing near my shoulder. I'm about to pull back when he said.

"Stay still, I don't want to miss this, I want to feel you"

I don't know what his into, but I feel the obligation not to complain. I love the feeling underneath his arms.

We then let go of the hug.

"Sorry, I misses you a lot"

"I miss you too..so much"

We stood up, still our hands holding and trying to find our way to the cab parking. Goodthing we didn't had hard time finding it.

We were in the cab, thinking what's this all about. But I couldn't find a particular answer, so I just settle with the though of what happened tonight and will happen on the next day, will be according to our will.

I reach home first, I didn't let him to be out in the cab since it's already late, I just told him to drive directly home. He agree with it.

It's Mom who open up the door for me. She asked me what went through my night. I only told her the other half of the story. I can't afford to tell her that Lucky and I leave the Ball and went running away. I think she believe it. Oh great! when just I started to be a lier hah?!

I climb up my bed as soon as I change my clothed in my pj's. I remember the hug, it was the longest hug me and Lucky shared. I didn't notice I'm squeezing already my pillow. The feeling is still new.

I am about to turn off my light when I remembered my phone inside my purse. I get it and check if there's any message for me. And yeah! I have 10 messages and 13 misscalls.

I open the messages, 7 of it is from Brace asking me where I am. The other 2 is from Kezh, asking me thesame thing. The one left is from the guy who made my world upside down. Lucky!

I open my call logs, all from Brace. I felt guilty of what I've done. I left him alone in the Ball. But in the contrary I don't regret it. I got to patch out things with Lucky.

I decide to textback in Keziah's message first, I told her I suddenly don't feel well, so I hurriedly went off. Next to Brace, asking him apology of what had happened, and thesame alibi I said to Keziah.

Lastly, I textedback Lucky.

My message: on bed, ready for sleep.

Lucky's Message: Good, dream of me, okay.. 😘😚 (with kiss in the end of the message)

I rolled back. I feel so keyliiig.. I hug my pillow tight.

Everything happens all of a sudden, our sudden distance, sudden conflict and sudden get back.

Haaaayy..I wish we can settle things sooner.

I look at my phone again..to Lucky's last message.."Dream of me" I'll surely will.

And slumber my self.

Slowly, I know she begun to feel what I felt for her.

I rolled aside and get her picture.

I bring the frame on my lips and planted small kisses.
