They Don't Know About Us

21. Last First Kiss

When we hung up it was almost midnight. Everyone went off to sleep. I lay there on my bed staring at the ceiling and thinking about the day. I wanted to rewind time and again go back in his arms, when my phone rang suddenly.

"Hey, can I come in?"

"Where are you?"

"Look out your window."

I got up and went up to the window to see him standing in the lawn. I smiled ear to ear looking at him.

"You don't have to open the door just stay there I'm coming in."

"No, you'l--"

He hung up the phone and started climbing up and within a minute he was there on my window. I helped him come in.

"Why are you here at this time of night. What i--"

He cut me off by pulling me close and planting a kiss on my forehead.

"Because I was missing you."

I tried to hide my blush but failed miserably. He started stroking my cheeks and grinned cheekily, "I love to see you blush."

I pulled him in and hugged him tightly. "I missed you too."

He hugged me back gently, "let's go up to the terrace?"

"Okay!"

We tiptoed out of our room and sneaked to the terrace, careful not to wake anyone up.

We sat down on the floor and cuddled.

"How many stars in the sky?"

"Are You a baby Niall?" I laughed so hard at his pouting face.

He started poking my cheeks. I swat his hands away and cuddled on his side.

We were just sitting silently for a while staring at the clear night sky, at the twinkling stars. When he broke the silence and I turned towards him and leaned in closer to listen to him.

"You know its been four years that we're together and I love you so much. Everyday I fall in love with you over again. And I just don't wanna loose you ever. I would rather die than spend my life without you."

I didn't know what to say. I was pretty bad at expressing my feelings to anyone. Every time I opened my mouth to say something, I closed it again. And he waited for me to say something.

He leaned in closer and rested his palm against my cheeks and pulled up my face to make me look at him. He looked directly in my eyes. His ocean blue eyes were so deep and intense that I got lost in them. They were holding so much in them-- love, truthfulness, deep thoughts, pain, dreams......

They made me feel like I had so much more to know about him, to know him better, to love him better, and they made me realize how much I love him but I could still love him better. He deserved so much.

"I love you so much," he whispered, though there was no one, but only for me to hear.

"I love you," it just came out of my mouth without even thinking, without a second thought.

He leaned in even more and this time I did the same. We could feel each other's breath on our faces and eventually we closed our eyes just feeling each others presence. I could feel his breath on my lips.

And then.. Our lips met. His other hand moved up to my neck tilting my head slightly. I could feel butterflies flying around in my tummy and my heart beating faster than usual. It was so intense, I moved my hands up and wrapped them around his neck when he started stroking my hair gently.

Then we pulled back slightly when both of us were out of breath. Our hands stayed where they were and joined our foreheads. I could feel his heart beating fast against my chest.

I felt my lips quiver a bit and they pulled up in a big smile. I opened my eyes just to find him staring in my eyes already.

I glanced at them and looked down just to rewind what happened just now.

That was my first kiss and probably the best one.
