Twisted Love

Chapter 24

As I walked towards my desk, I don't know why but my heartbeat was so fast that I could hear it in my ears.
I feel wierd. I mean yes we are in a relationship but what I feel today is so different it's like I want to see Mason and hug him tightly but on the other hand I want to run away and never want to come in front of him.
Moreover I don't know how he will react when I will tell him this.
'Do I want to tell him this?' I thought.
'Of Course you do.' My subconciousness replied.
'Infact you want to go to him right now.
'You don't speak.'
'You stop thinking about him then.' Arghh. I accidently bumped into someone.
"Ouch. Sorry I..' I stopped because I lost in those blue eyes yet again and then his dimpled smile.
'Facepalm yourself Edwards.' My subconciousness said.
"Why are you so lost?" Mason asked me but for some reason I could not comprehend his sentence. My mind stopped working.
"Huh?" I asked him.
'Love. You are in love.' It was my subconciousness again.
"Elena, are you okay?" He looked worried.
I was feeling those butterflies again.
"Yeah. Yeah. I'm great." I smiled at him showing my whole teeth.
'Dumb. What are you doing?'
"I mean I'm absolutely fine."
He came near me and whispered in my ear.
"If we were alone here, I would have taken you in my arms."
His voice was so husky that I got goosebumps on my arms.
But I composed myself and pushed him away.
"Go to your cabin, Anderson." I said to him.
"You come with me." He interlaced our fingers.
"Stop it. Someone will see us." I tried to pull my hand away but he wasn't giving in.
"Let them see then. I don't want to keep it a secret anymore."
"What?" I got shocked. I never thought that he will say this. I mean we are just going to complete one month in two days. But. Oh no. Wait, just two days. Damn I need to think of something.
"Yeah. We like each other, so what? It's none of their business."
I laughed and he looked at me so seriously that I tried to shut myself.
What? It's not my fault, he only said it so cutely that I couldn't control myself.
"Ok but don't you think that if they will be aware about us then they all will start bitching about us especially me."
"I'll just fire them then."
He said it as if that was so obvious.
"I know it's your company but you can't just fire your employess without any reason."
"Yes I can and who says I don't have any reason?" Mason said.
I rolled my eyes. "Fine we will talk about this later. I should go to my desk now or that Manager of yours will give me the looks and I will say something to her."
"Does she say anything to you?"
"Not exactly because I'm not actually under her. I'm under you. I only get instructions fro.. "
"Are you?" He said mischievously but I couldn't understand his meaning.
"What?" I asked confused.
"Under me?" He looked at me straight in the eyes.
"Huh?" And then my light bulb lit.
"Fuck you Mason." I shivered a little
"I didn't mean it like that."
He laughed. "I havn't even touched you and you are shivering already." He shook his head.
"Bye." I started to walk away feeling embarassed but obviously he stopped me and turned me around.
"You know it's actually like a record for me that I'm with a girl and I have not even touched her yet, wait, forget touching, I have not even kissed you yet." He touched my cheek and I closed my eyes.
"Why?" Wait where did that come from? Did I actually said that? I immediately opened my eyes.
There was a smile on Mason's lips obviously he understood what has just happened.
"I mean.."
"Shhh." Mason stopped me.
"It's because I don't want to run. I want to be with you and want to take everything slow. I'm waiting for a perfect monent."
I was feeling so overwhelmed right now. Mason saying all this is so strange. It's like he is talking in some foreign language. If someone would have told me that Mason can say all this, I would have laughed at that person but now I am just speechless that's it.
"You don't have to say anything. I can see it in your eyes." I am just hoping that I wouldn't start crying.
I wanted to tell him how much I love him but no words were coming out.
"Let's get back to the work, shall we?"
I nodded. "Yeah." I said softly.
He looked around and then kissed me on my forehead
"I don't want to lose you." His eyes were closed.
"Me too Mason. Me too."
I said.
He smiled at me.
"I will drop you home today."
"Okay. I will go to my seat now."
He nodded.
I started walking towards my desk with just one thought in my mind,
'I love you Mason' and I will tell you about this on our one month anniversary.
