The Darkest Bliss

Chapter Four

I held his hand and pull him closer. My world had almost collapsed and I had found Grace in this war, he was my grace. He was my hideaway.
Our lips touch and for the first time in a while I smiled.

"Nothing knew my Heart like LOVE. It knew I had no strength to run, no weight to not fall... " -Writer.

The wind blew swiftly as we float in each others warmth and love. He made circles on my cheek with his thumb as he kiss me, in depth.

The sun has set talking about nothing, just swaying with the wind as we kiss and cuddle.
It was already Six:Ten when we stood to leave.
"We will come back and get married here" he promised.
I smiled unsure if promises were worth keeping.
We drove silently until his car stoped at my extra protected gate.
"Thankyou Rusk" I said.
"Thankyou heart for being there today"he replies.
"Goodnight" I said as I planted a kiss on his lips.
He says nothing but smile as he watch me disappear in the nearest inn.

"Boooo"
*Screams*
"Caught ya! " Mel says as she laugh at my reaction.
"You are a devil. The most evil devil" I say irritated.
Mel still laughing -"you needed this"
"Why are you here? " I ask.
"We are having a Day out tomorrow so I needed to tell you the dos and donts"
She have this habit of executing things and demanding for cooperation.
"Day out? With?" I ask
"You.. me... your car" she tell me.
"What are we doing? Do we really..... "
She interrupted even before I could finish.
"We need this girl. You need this. All I want is some new clothes"
"So we are going shopping " I laugh.
Mel was never a shopper. She in no angle looked like any of us, all she had in her wardrobe was a few pair of jeans, tees of the same design with different colours and a few pair of Animax.
"Yes. Shopping where I buy all the stuff you ask me to buy" she say teasingly.
I realised she was trying to give me company, she was trying to help me become what I used to be.
I hugged her the tightest.
"Zia stop. I am not that jerk Matt. You didn't take bath after a long day out" she say as she push me away from her.
"You're hotter than Matt. I feel erotic. " I say teasingly.

"Lets eat, I'm hungry as F*** " I suggest.
"Why? Rusk didn't spent a penny? Did he?"
She asked.
"Well we were in the middle of now where." I defended.
"Whats with you and Rusk? "
"Nothings with me and Rusk" I reply.
"I smell lies. I smell love. "
"Well maybe. " I say as I undress to put on my night suit.
"You know Zia, I'm happy as long as you're happy. But remember that what happens to your heart is not my business. I can't help you with that. Be careful of whom you're giving yourself to" she advices me for the first time in my entire life with her.
I felt genuineness in her tone and I knew she did mean something that she couldn't explain.
"I will be careful" I said.
"Now lets eat please mel"
"Ready to dig" Mel jokes.

"So when are you leaving? " I ask Mel as we take a walk at the backyard.
"Leave where? Was i supposed to go somewhere?" She replies.
We both exchange weird faces and laugh.
We didn't have to say everything, we understood each other better than the rest.
"Don't fart" I tell her
"Die Bitch".

It was night. The time I abhor the most. It was my fight to begin and another long restless night as I fight between a tear and a smile.
"It wasn't the pain that hurt me, but the space that became a barrier between my pain and the happiness around me"

"GoodMorning Bitch" Mel greets as she bring me my breakfast.
"GoodMorning Biaaatchhh" I greet back smirking.
"Have this and we will dress up"
"Okay" I reply obeying her.
"I took out your jeans and your UCB tee. " she tells me.
"What? Why? Ooookayyy so this is not my day but yours" I interrogate shocked.
"Its our day. But since I'll buy the clothes you choose for me, you'll wear the clothes I choose for you"
"You wicked" I call as I throw my pillow on her face.

We drove off twenty miles down to south, Havana clothing, my favorite pick a dress shop.
"Show me that pink dress please" I ask the shop keeper who instantly recognised me.
"Right away Miss Williams" she politely replies.
I never liked people using my surname to address me. It was rude, i felt, it reminded me of whose legitimate yet abandoned daughter I was.
Mel looked at me in shock.
"I am gonna kill you Zia"
"I'm gonna fix you" I shot back.
She Knew exactly what I was doing. But advantage is for taking ehhh!.

She came out dressed in a Baby pink strapless dress and a suited pair of aldo shoes.
"Oh my God!" I whispered.
She was a beauty beyond anything, her curves depicted gracefulness and she was no other but an art of the Almighty.
"Did you never realise you were beautiful? " I ask her.
She laughed but sounding flattered and nervous at the same time.
"Your tees covered everything that a man would die for. Darling you are a lady. Oh my tommy! " I tell her in whispers, all amazed and overwhelmed myself.
"I am just lost of words zia. Stop doing that" she complains unable to take in too much of sugar.

"Happiness is not always in the gains. Little things that makes you smile and of which you aren't even aware of are in fact the greatest of all gifts: of all Happy."
