Feels Like Heaven

Chapter 17 : I'd Do Anything For Love

 At Sarah's Garden....

They didn't know how long they stayed standing at the garden in each other's arm. When they both felt tiredness, they both decided to settle at the couch in the living room. They were unseparable and still entangled at each other's arms. They sat silently while Sarah's tears were unstoppable. She was confused. It's overwhelming that Gerald Anderson loves her too. She couldn't believe how open he was with his feelings.

She liked this Gerald better. She like the sweet and loving Gerald. He has now become transparent and his eyes only shows passion, and love. It made her feel giddy and she couldn't help but feel special on how he is treating her now.

But even though her heart is bursting with happiness, she couldn't help but feel guilty. Her conscience is telling her this so wrong but being in Gerald's arms made her feel safe and secure. She started to let the tiredness she had been feeling all day overtake her. She closed her eyes and fell into a deep slumber.

Sarah woke up stiff and sore. Her eyes burned from all the crying she had done. The couch was comfortable but sharing it with another person made her feel stiff and sore all over her body. She was still in daze but she slowly regained the memories of what happened last night. She sat up and rubbed her eyes. She looked around only to feel disappointment as she was alone in the couch she was lying at.

She started to wonder if last night was just a dream. There were no sign of Gerald. It was as if last night didn't happen at all. She sighed and stood up to go to her room and continue sleeping. It was her rest day after all. She was about to go to the stairs when noticed a shirt hanging at one of the chairs of their dining are. She grabbed the shirt.

He's still here. She thought to herself. Just as if everything is on cue, she heard someone whistling. 

She smiled and excitedly walked towards where the whistling is coming from -- the kitchen. She smiled at view before her. Gerald Anderson was wearing an apron over his undershirt, busy cooking some omelet while whistling a familiar tune. She stared at him for a while, admiring the sight before her. She knew she could get used to this. She decided to let him know her presence, and what best to do that by singing with his whistling.

And I would do anything for love,

I'd run right into hell and back.

I would do anything for love,

I'll never lie to you and that's a fact.

Gerald looked at her and smiled brightly at her, "Good morning, babe" he greeted, then he gave her a peck on the lips.

"Morning!" she smiled shyly but she reached for his face and gave him a kiss as well.

He smiled and continued whistling while cooking breakfast.  She smiled contentedly before singing again.

But I'll never forget the way you feel right now, oh no, no way.

And I would do anything for love,

Oh I would do anything for love,

I would do anything for love,

But I won't do that,

No I won't do that.

Gerald transferred their breakfast at their respective plates and placed them at the dining area. He returned at the kitchen and removed the apron he was wearing.  He went to go near Sarah, who was leaning on the kitchen counter, smiling, but she turned around and grabbed one of the spoons. She used it as a microphone and she started singing like a rockstar. He raised his eyebrows but laughed at her hyperness. He knew he could get used to  this. He joined her crazyness and grabbed a pan and danced like a crazy rockstar.
