I was breathless when I broke the kiss. I have never been kissed with so much intensity before. We kissed from standing to lying on the bed. Glenn held me as I catch my breath with my head on his chest. He gently combed my hair with his fingers, trapping me with his hold.

"Glenn, why me? Do you really like me from just one meeting in Starbucks? I don't believe." I hide my face, avoiding his eyes.

He lifted my face gently to meet his. He smiled and kissed my forehead. He hugged me closer to him, his chin on my head. "Yes, it's true. I fell for you at first sight. You are so beautiful when I first saw you. You were cold to me but wanted to protect me from the wrath of two guys. Your kind heart made me love you more. I needed to find you, I needed your love. And I still can't believe I'm here cuddling you. I love you so much, Harley."

His words are melting me. I feel... too loved. As if I'm already in a relationship with Glenn since I was a kid. He sat up against the headboard and lightly placed me on his lap. He grabbed my waist to hold me closer towards him. Immediately I put an arm's length distance from his chest and harshly pushed him away, still sitting on his leg.

"Ouch, Harley, what's that for?" He grabbed my hands before I fall backwards.

"You haven't told me your purpose of coming here. I shouldn't be cuddling you as if I'm your girlfriend. I don't even know you well enough. And I'm hungry." I wanted to jump out of my bed but I felt a strong arm on my waist pulling me back. He back-hugged me then turn me to face him.

"Don't leave me, please. You will be mine one day. I'm bringing you out the whole day. I have things planned for you. First time planning for me. I hired a stylist and a makeup artist, they are waiting downstairs. I bought a full dress set for you." He said while caressing my hands. He said you'll be mine one day. So shy.

"Your tux is crumpled. And I don't do makeup, it might harm my face. You've just insulted my natural beauty but I want to see the dress you got for me." I crossed my arms across my chest like a little girl throwing tantrums.

He laughed and put me down gently on my bed, away from his legs. He pecked on my lips, surprising me and jumped off my bed. He held out his hand. "I have an extra black tux in my car, don't worry silly. You shall not be putting on any makeup, but let her help out though. She woke up early for you. So, may I escort my lady down?"

I smacked his hand away. "I can't let my brother see me holding your hand. He will get a heart attack and you'll be interrogated as if you mass murdered everyone in the country."

He laughed and lifted me off my bed. Putting me down after pecking on my lips again. He opened the door gentlemanly, setting our hair properly as we walked out.

I walked down the stairs to see the stylist and make-up artist all ready. Their equipment were spread out all over the coffee table. They stood up from the sofa seats after seeing Glenn and I coming down the stairs.

"Mr. Xander." They said in unison.

He smiled at them and nodded his head once in approval. He gestures at them. "The stylist is Sandra and the makeup artist is Melissa. They will be helping you. Ladies, she is the one, Harley Levin."

"Ms. Levin." Said in unison. They sounded like robots.

I smiled awkwardly. Clark was sipping his coffee at the single sofa seat, obviously enjoying what was going on.

"Melissa, you will not be doing Harley's makeup. She does not require one. Instead, you'll be of Sandra's assistance." Glenn said while gently pushing me forward towards them. She nodded, "Yes, Mr. Xander."

We went up to my room while Glenn stayed behind and talked to my brother. Am I falling for Glenn's charisma? I'm rather touched by this. I feel like I'm treated like a princess.
