Chapter 27
{Valentine's POV}
I hugged 'Aunt Hilda', kissed 'Uncle Thomas'on the cheek, shook hands with other people who I have never met in my life, and to top it all off.. Hunter's Aunt from Spain kissed me full on the lips (well just a peck, but c'mon! It was still gross!). That's basically how everything was going in our engagement party. It was more like a business party to me because there were a lot of well-paying clients, regular clients, investors, and all those other people who I never even bothered to know more than their names (and I forgot most of their names too.)
"How are you holding up?" Hunter asked me, his mouth against my temples.
"Not so good, you?"
"Me neither. Your third cousins are hitting on me endlessly." He laughed.
I shot him an icy glare. "Who?"
He jabbed his thumb behind him. And sure, there were petty blondes who were drinking shots like they're gulping on water and their dresses were too short on both ends for my liking. They waved their hands as soon as they saw Hunter turn around and look at them with me.
"I don't even know them!" I say, out ragged.
"Calm down, Val. You know I'll only have eyes for one person in this room." He snaked his arms around my waist.
"Oh yeah? Who?" I asked lightly.
"You," he whispered and kissed me.
His kisses tasted so good, but this time it tastes better. Now that those skanks were looking at me with envy. He licked my bottom lip for entrance, which I happily granted him. Our tongues fought for dominance and in the end, I let him win.
"Get a room, you guys! There's kinds here," a voice from far away said.
Then someone grabbed me and pulled me out of Hunter's arms. I felt the coldness right away, "what do you want?" I demanded.
"There's kids, keep it PG!" Farrah said.
"Hey, wanna get out of here?" Hunter asked me.
"Get out, what?"
"Not you Farrah, just me and my fiancee." Hunter said, holding my hand. "What do you say, Val?"
"Yeah, of course!" I say breathlessly.
"Tell everyone that we left and we'll be back home no later than 1 am." Hunter said to Farrah and pulled me out.
"Where're we going?" I asked, my lips still feeling the tingling sensation.
"To my favorite spot in the world," he replied.
"Don't tell me you're bringing me to your room because that's boring."
"Not if you wanted to, but no. It's not my favorite spot."
"Then where?" I asked again.
"Just be patient it's fifteen minutes away from here."
We drove for a long time and once we arrived, I was in shock.
"So do you like it?" He asked, guiding me to take a seat next to him.
"Yes," I whisper.
We were on the top of a hill. It over-looked the whole city and it was magnificent. The city was full of lights and cars were driving around you could see their head lights from up here. The wind was chilly and the skies were clear. You could see the moon and the stars. One particular star was shining, and that caught my eye.
"Look, it's the second star to the right," I giggled.
"And we're off to Neverland," Hunter laughed.
"How did you find this place?"
"I was just driving around to think and I stumbled across this place. I haven't brought anyone here yet except you."
"Does that make me special then?" I beamed at him.
"You'' always be special to me, Valentine." He whispered and pulled me against his chest.
Hmm, i liked this spot. Where we are now, in Hunter's arms, over-looking the city..
"It's nearly 1 am," he suddenly said.
I groaned inwardly. I was just beginning to like this place.
"Don't worry, we'll come back." He said.
"Alright," I pouted and stood up dusting my dress. He opened the car door for me, like a gentleman. We drove back home and he dropped me off. He gave me a light peck on the cheek and drove off. I stood outside the front door, unmoving and grinning like a maniac by myself. Yes, I am truly madly and deeply in love with Hunter Olivander Blakewood. And there was no denying it.
