"Are you drunk?", it was the first thing sensible that had flew over my mouth, it wasn't at the same time impossible that Marco could've been drinking.
He was rather a rebel himself.
His eyes narrowed with anger, absolutely fumed with ruining his 'scene'. "Way to ruin the mood Butterfly, you wouldn't know that here I am gaining courage and you decide to ruin everything".
I blinked, my mouth mouthed an 'o'. "Really? Well--I guess, u-uh I don't know!", I screeched in irritation, my head aching with his questions that doesn't seem relevant.
"How would I know if this is just a joke or your sadistic way of toying my feelings?", I countered, clutching to my chest as I fear for what he had planned.
"Tell me Butterfly, do you like me or love me?", he said on impulse, leaming his tall frame against my comfort zone, making me fidget by the seat.
"What do you want to get from all of this?", I squeezed a question, my heart couldn't handle the closeness of his face towards mine--despite us kissing countless of times.
"I want sincerity from you".
"Tell me how you feel, everything towards me", desperation waved through his hazel eyes.
Then I drew a sharp breath. "I thought it was easy to forget liking someone, I never liked you in the first place--I was fooling myself and everyone that I was since my heart was damaged so badly by Tom", I confessed, my throat getting heavier all the while the room began to turn dark.
"It was the only way to forget him, then karma bit me and I eventually found myself chasing for you", I looked at him with sincerity.
"I thought this was just a stupid like, but it got worse and even if you were this horrible, jerk, sadistic person, I always knew that you were never one and so I forced myself upon you, waiting that somehow you'll be true to yourself".
"I wanted to see the real you, not this façade that shoves away people because he is afraid of being hurt if somehow he learns to love someone, so I tried to help you discreetly and in the process I had learned to love you".
"I love you Marco, you don't know how much I've endured from your brash ways, how much I've tried to give up on you but I was almost there".
"And I did reached it, you let me", I smiled faintly, his face morphed into confusion.
"So you were annoying me because you wanted me to show my real self? Staring at my window, forcing me, talking to me so that I'll open up?".
I nodded. "I knew you moved because your friends had betrayed you, you entrusted them so much that when you got hurt you became this mean person to avoid being hurt again".
"But I can see you beneath it, Marco, do you love me back? I-I don't want to hide these feelings any longer".
"I've waited long enough and my heart can't handle it", tears pooled at the side of my eyes as I cupped his cheek softly.
"You don't need to wait any longer", he murmured softly.
"Prove it to me, show it to me that you love me and I'll repay you", he challenged me and confusion masked over my mind.
"H-how can I prove it to you?", I quiver in fear, my voice shrinking as his face was unreadable.
"Kiss me", he said without any hesitation. "--kiss me tenderly", he rephrased.
My cheeks boiled hot, butterflies errupted in my stomach as I supressed the urge to turn jelly and lose my thinking. "M-Marco--"
"Star", he muttered my name like it was the only word he knew.
I gulped, my heart drumming so fast that I could feel my mind turning static. "C-close you eyes".
I was losing touch with reality, my sweaty hand still cupped his cheek as I leant in forward step by step, my eyes staring at his face. Anxiety splashed through me as I felt myself tremble by our lips merely touching.
I took one last glance at his luscious lips before submerging into him.
Everything went loose, I feel weightless, everything felt so blissful--so surreal that I kissed him deeply, pressing my lips harder against his as my attraction heightened.
We reluctant moved in sync, our lips moving against harmony. I pressed my body on his chest for steady position as he snakes his arms around my waist our lips kissing hungrily--the need to quench our desire for each other.
I've been waiting for so long, I could tell he waited too.
His lips on mine clouding every thought I had in mind, my heart pounding furiously by every second, my ears defeaned by any sound that could ruin this moment.
It was only me and him, finally finding our way towards one another.
And when he pulled apart, his eyes glowered to my lips before flicking them to my own eyes. His breath hitch over my skin, I could feel his scent and warmth as he rested his forehead with mine, deeply breathing as I stared breathlessly with his face leaning on mine.
"Star, will you do the honor of being my girlfriend?", he opened his eyes, an amused smile spreaded on his lips as he awaited for my response.
I caved in, a wide smile spreading by my cheeks. "Didn't need to ask".
"What now?".
"Just for awhile, let us stay like this Marco".
"Star".
"Yeah?".
"I love you too".
