Sweet Creature | The Suprise

the most beautiful part is,

I wasn't even looking when

I found you .

- Unknown

Serenity

"You want to know what I noticed" I question suddenly, my eyes peering past the pages of my book, and into the bearing of Kai's eyes, that sweep mine.

"That you're absolutely stunning when you read" Kai answers, his long finger tips brushing the side of my cheek, as he pulls back a loose string of my hair behind my ear, swiftly. His mesmerizing eyes seeing past my eyes, and looking directly into my soul.

My heart does a back flip at the grain of his touch. My cheeks blush Scarlett red.

"No" I say, looking away to hide the grin that covered my face.

"Well you are" Kai states matter-of-factually.

"Thank you, but what I was going to say was I don't think that you've ever met my mom before"

I watch as Kai's eyes turn to a quick realization, before flickering back to mine.

"You're right" He says, " In fact, I don't believe I've ever actually met any girls parents before."

This stunned me. Was I really going to be the first girl to ever introduce Kai to meet my mother in the entirety of his life? It was odd and inconceivable - yet,still something deep down inside of me made me feel special. Delighted that I would be the first at this too.

"Well, my mom will totally love you, she's a lot like me, but better"

"Impossible" Kai counters, moving closer to me.

"There's nobody on this planet earth that can compare to the likes of you Serenity Hale" And in that same breath, he presses his lips gracefully onto mine. I close my eyes. Taking in his scent as it invades my mouth. I kiss him back without a second thought and in an instant our lips move in sync with one another. Slow paced, and intimate. Was I ever going to get sick of kissing his sweet soft lips? Was I ever going to get enough of Kai Carson? I knew the answer to both of those questions before it even pondered into my mind. No, I wasn't. The passionate intimacy began to make my head spin. All of my thoughts were quickly lost in the enchantment of our kiss, only the sudden absence of the feeling broke me out of the spell that consumed me.

I frowned, disappointed that the kiss was over, but quickly covering the selfish emotion with a light smile.

I hated when our kisses ended. It always felt like my whole life was ending as well. Foolish, I know - but I craved Kai in the most innocent way. Craved him, like I craved air in my lungs. Without it, lifeless. Without it - pointless. Without him I wanted nothing else. No air, no sun, no water. He was all of that for me and more. I watch as the smile spread across his beautiful face. The action causing my heart to beat at a million miles per hour. Metaphorically speaking, of course. Yet, every time I saw his glorious smile my fragile heart skipped several beats.

"I think meeting your mom would be great," Kai says "When were you thinking?"

"Now." I say, and then the realization made me feel stupid. We weren't exactly in any position to leave now. It was only Thursday - and the middle of a school day. How idiotic of me. Loss track of time was one of the many side effects of kissing Kai.
