Kabanata 18

Tired

Queennie stiffened in his arms and her hands were ice cold against his shoulders.

Don't stop keep on movin'
And just know that in time it will pay off and you will just make it on out,
Make it alright
And you know, there's so much left to go,
So don't hold yourself back
Keep your mind on track
And you'll be on your way...

She maintained her eyes to his necktie. She was afraid to look up and meet his eyes because she might broke down to tears.

Her lips trembled and she could feel her eyes began to water.

Since that day I saw you walk away
not a moment has passed
That I haven't asked myself, oh why ...
Takin' all my time, and it hasn't left my mind
'cause that was the thing, thought I was your king
Hopin' that you would be my queen...

"My Queen," he whispered again but this time he tilted her chin to meet her gaze.

Even in her mask, the sadness in her eyes were evident. He clenched his teeth when he saw a tear ran down behind her mask.

He wiped the tears using his fingers. Until now, he was still confused as to why she suddenly avoided him.

He was going crazy thinking of the possible bad things that he did to her but he couldn't think of any.

He had been chasing her yet she always found a way of hiding.

He slowly leaned forward and kissed her both cheeks. He wanted to ease her pain but he didn't know how.

Maybe this would do...

He moved his lips towards her lips and kissed her like it was their first time. Her lips were pressed together but he tried to open her mouth by slightly biting her lip.

She gasped and it was his chance to fully kissed her on the lips. He didn't care if the students saw them. What was important to him right now was to make her feel how much he badly missed her.

He hid a smile when he could feel her kissing back. He pulled her closer and kissed her deeply. Her hands snaked on his neck for support like her life depended on it.

Her heartbeat doubled when his kiss became intense and passionate. Having him this close has lit the fire inside her.

She heard the gasped of the students but she didn't care anymore. Good thing they have masks on their faces. Their identity was safe for now.

She didn't know how long the kiss lasted. She just found herself dragging by him on the wrist as they went out in the gym.

They reached the parking lot and he opened to front seat for her. She couldn't utter any protest so she went inside silently. She was afraid to even speak a word. It might broke the magic.

Before Lutian started the engine, he took off his jacket and slid it behind her shoulders. She could smell his fragrance on the fabric and it warmth her chilled skin.

They rode silently. The awkward silence was disturbed by the soft music from the radio. She rested her head on the window and closed her eyes. She felt so tired suddenly.

Queennie was tired of everything ... tired of running away.

Maybe she could let things clear out to ease the heavy feeling she has been keeping in her heart all this time.

She wanted to listen to him.
She wanted to take risks and forget what happened.

She didn't want to fall for him but she just found herself falling for more.
