Chapter 10: The Plan
I slept for hours and woke up by the ring of the doorbell. I got up and looked for my phone. There were missed calls. I checked it out. It was from Adam. Wait. Why do I have his number? The doorbell ringed again. Whoever that person, I’m sure I’m going to yell at him. He already disturbed my good sleep.
I walked towards the door and opened it partially. It was Adam. He was holding a bouquet of roses and a small box of chocolates.
“May I come in?” he asked smilingly. I stared at him. He was really handsome. I didn’t know how I got his attention. I opened the door widely and let him in. I rushed to my bedroom and arranged the cover. My room was still tidy as I left it clean the day I was robbed. He sat at the couch near my bed. He stared at me while I’m doing my stuff.
“What?” I asked.
“Nothing. It’s just you’re still look amazing.”
“Amazing, eh?” I smiled at him. “So, how are you going to fix all these things?” I continued.
“Why? Aren’t you happy I’m your boyfriend now?” he smirked.
“No.” I answered abruptly. I was happy at the thought but it was all lies. And in fact, I’m still in pain.
“Oh.” He said. His smiled had gone. His happy face changed into serious. “Umm.. Amy. . .”His voice trails off.
“Yes?” I answered.
“I don’t know how am I going to tell you this.” He continued to talk. “It was really hard for me.” I kept silent. I was waiting him to divulge things to me. I was curious to what he’s going to say. “Amy, will you be my girlfriend?” he asked finally.”
“What?” I exclaimed. I was shocked to what he had said. This guy kept me astounded with all his words and acts. It didn’t sink into me. I asked again. “What did you say?”
“Will you be my girlfriend?” he answered. Then it hit me. He wanted me to be his girlfriend. Why the hell he’s asking me like that?
“Are you in the right state of mind?” I walked closed to him. I held his arms and shook him.
“What are you doing?” he asked.
“Shaking you.” I answered.
“Stop that.” He giggled. “This is serious. I mean this would just be for fun.” Them, I sat beside him.
“What? Do you think being in a relationship would be fun?” I growled.
“No. Actually, Let us just pretend to be in a relationship. You see everyone knows you were my girlfriend.” He explained.
“You told me that you’re going to fix this.” I said with a slightly angst with my words.
“That is what I’m doing now. This is the best thing I’d ever come up with. You see, they’re going to ask why I lied. And so on so forth. Plus, they will think that you are seducing me.”
“What? Seducing you!?” I growled.
“Yes. You see, I’m a celebrity. Every girl would do everything to be with me. So if we don’t pretend we are in a relationship then they might think like that. Let them think that you got me because I fell in love you.” His last words left me hanging. I wanted to think that all of these were just illusions and it was not really happening. I didn’t know what to say. My thoughts were deranged. Then, I finally let out my voice.
“How?” it was kind of stupid word. But it was all I ever come out with.
“You okay with the idea?” he asked smilingly. His gaze was weakening me more. I kept silent but I nod. Then he continued to speak. “Okay. Let’s plan everything.” His lips touched my forehead. It was sweet of him. He always did that. But I never had a chance to resist it. Whenever he touched me by his hand, there was always electricity that makes me weak. I didn’t know how he made me feel like that. Whenever I am with him, I’m always at ease. I sighed then I listened to what he’s saying.

*Adam*
I kissed her forehead. I didn’t know why I did that. It was just I like doing it every time. She made me comfortable and at peace. The last time I had this feeling was when Olive and I were still dating. Yes. I was attracted at her. I think it was just lust. I distanced myself a little but I can still feel the warmth of her breath. She moved and looked intense. I moved again a little farther so she’ll be comfortable. Then, I spoke.
“So, as I was saying. Let’s plan.” I started again to talk. “Let’s pretend to be in a relationship.” She’s still didn’t speak. “Okay. You’ll be with all the time.”
“All the time?! How about sleeping and bathing?” she asked suddenly. It was kind of stupid questions but I smiled.
“Of course, you’ll be on your own. I’m not going to bathe you of course.” I grinned at the thought of bathing her. She blushed but he punched my arm.
“You are naughty eh! I think we should have some distance. Let me be the one to handle this. Okay?” she said. I smiled and nod at her. “Let’s just go with the flow to make it more realistic to them. And being in a relationship, there will be intimate moment. .“ Her voice faltered.
“Intimate moment? Like what?” I dared to ask more. I wanted to know how far she will go with the plan of us getting into a relationship.
“Kissing and holding hands. Just that. I’ll settle with that.” She smiled. I moved closer to her. Her eyes widened but didn’t move back.
“Kissing. Like this.” I kissed her at her forehead. She nodded. Then, I kissed her again in the cheek. “Like that.” I said. She nodded at me. She stared at me. I met her eyes. She was so beautiful then I couldn’t stop myself. I landed my lips to hers. She didn’t respond but I continued to kiss her. Then, she moved her lips in rhythm with mine. I cupped her face and continued to kiss her. I noticed her arms were on my neck now grabbing me closer. Our kissed got more intense and turned into passion. I slid my tongue into her mouth. I fought for dominance and I won. Her lips were so soft that I wanted to kiss her forever. Her kissed were addicting. I stopped for a second and leaned my forehead to her. I have to gain some air then I kissed her again.
