CHANCE

"Did you really think I wouldn't recognize you? Did you really think I would forget you?"

His words snapped me out of the trance his eyes held me in. I couldn't comprehend what was going on. I blinked in confusion and a small smile played on his lips.

"You're still as beautiful as I remember. The same cute face, mesmerizing eyes, perfect eyelashes and pretty pink lips"

He smiled again and tucked a loose strand of my hair behind my ear. The moment his fingers touched my skin, fireworks exploded. I could feel the blush crawling up my face. While I was lost in the sensations, he spoke again

"I want to change everything wrong that I did and now that I have found you after such a long painful time, I'm not letting you go"

His words were sweet but left a nasty ache in my chest. All the anger and frustration that I carried for years, was convincing me to lash out on him but I took a hold of my thoughts before I do something that I might regret.

"What do you even mean?"

I scoffed

"It has been 7 yrs, and all of a sudden you barge in my life and say you remember me or never forgot me. Who are you trying to play? Huh? I'm not a fool; I know you were dating someone at that time. And please stop with all your sweet tactics. I can't take it anymore. It disgusts me"

I was raging in anger, I know I have feelings for him but he needs to know what I feel. He stood there quite, emitting a sad aura. I looked into his eyes and saw how vulnerable he looked at that moment; he had a fear in his eyes. I couldn't take that and averted my gaze from his.

"I'm sorry, really sorry"

I heard his low voice

"Please give me a chance to fix everything, there was a reason behind me not approaching you at that time, please am just asking for one chance. I promise you won't regret it"

He pleaded. His glistening eyes reflected the sincerity in his words. I was having a battle of my own, my head said to hell with him but my heart was beating the other way. At last my heart won. I decided I'll give him a chance, just one.

"I'll give you a chance but...... "

"But what?"

"I want to know the truth, the honest truth. Promise me"

The moment I said those words, he became the happiest person on this earth. His smile outshined the sun. Joy radiated from him. He pulled me in a tight hug and for minutes we stayed in that position, in each other's warm embrace. He was the one to pull back first. He stared in my eyes and then at my lips, his gaze flickering between my eyes and my lips

"Can I..... "

I blushed a deep shade of red and only nodded. Almost immediately I felt a soft pair of lips on mine. His lips moved slowly with mine, our lipped synced together. He felt so smooth and tasted like dark chocolate, I could get addicted to his taste. His tongue did wonders to me; damn he's got some killer skills. The kiss went deep. His hand snaked around my waist pushing me further against the wall, the other hand was tangled in my hair. I was pressed up against him. I could feel his firm chest under my hands, slowly my hands travelled up his chest and around his neck. The intensity of the kiss had me moaning. After god knows how long, we broke apart in heavy need of oxygen. He looked so hot with his messed up hair, drooped eyes, swollen lips and his naked chest rising up and down for air. I bit my own swollen lips and looked at him shyly. He smirks and leans in my ear to whisper something

"We'll take it slow baby, really slow
