Accidental Love

23.

Alec's motorcycle was definately going above the speed limit. It wont take genius to notice.

I had my eyes shut tight as I felt the wind roughly hit against my body.

My arms tightened around Alec's waist and I felt him stiffen at the action.

After what felt like forever, he finally came to a stop and shut the bike off. "We're here."

I didn't move an inch.

"Uh Trish?" Alec called, gently touching my arms.

That seemed to snap me out of it as I flew up from the seat, wide eyed.

"Were you trying to kill me?!" I screamed swinging my arms frantically, trying to slap Alec wherever I could.

"Hey hey hey!" He grabbed my arms and pulled me forward.

This caused me to smack into his leg, pressed against his side as he was still on the motorcycle.

I stared into Alec's bright, beautiful dark brown orbs as he did mine.

His eyes drifted to my lips and his gaze lingered there.

My eyes went down to his at their own will and I found myself staring at his pink, luscious, kissable lips.

My breathing quickened at our close proximity and I could feel myself leaning in.

I couldn't bring myself to pull away no matter how badly I knew I should.

Alec was slowly leaning in also and it felt like years were passing by before our lips could meet in a sweet, tender kiss.

Right before they touched, two objects bumped together, stopping us at the worst time possible.

I snapped out from my daze as realisation hit me like a thousand bullets.

We were still wearing our helmets.

Ohmygosh. I almost kissed Alec!

My eyes widened at this realisation.

What was I thinking?! He's a player and doesn't feel anything for me.

He'll just use me like a napkin and throw me away right after he's done and satisfied.

"Uhhh" my gaze snapped in Alec's direction as I heard his voice. "Uh. Well we're um, we're here so" he muttered rubbing his neck awkwardly.

"Um yeah. I guess you're right." I played along as I realised he was trying to let our recent action slide as if it never happened.

I didn't feel like talking about it either but I couldn't help the pang of sadness in my chest.

I guess I was hoping the kiss did happen, but at the same time I'm relieved it didn't.

When my nerves finally calmed, I turned to look at my surroundings.

I gasped at the beautiful sight before me.

There was a small pond with the cleanest, most crystal clear and glistening water I had ever seen. There were trees with the most red, juiciest apples I've ever seen and hearts with initials were carved into the trees' trunks.

Swings, monkey bars and some exercising machines were also here and multiple flowers of different types and colours surrounded this entire scenery.

"Wow. This is beautiful." I inhaled the sweet smell from all the flowers that surrounded us.

"Yeah it is." I jumped at the sound of Alec's voice. I could feel his close proximity behind me due to his hot breath that blew against my neck. "I found this place when I was younger. My little sister and I would come here often, she loves this place so much. We're the only ones in our group of friends who knows about this place, well we, now you."
