My Precious

EIGHT

Michael stopped but didn't step back, he waited for her reaction and he got it.
She also so bad wants to be locked up in those lips of his and she reached for his lips eagerly and kissed him so passionately. He took charge and led on with the kiss. His hands  slipping to her waist and nape simultaneously. He rode on as he took his hands from her nape and held her chin.

Grace was so enjoying this. Some hours ago she thought she was a novice but look at her now rocking his lips. She placed her hands on his shoulders. Suddenly, Michael's phone beeped, they were startled and they broke off. He cleared his throat.

"Excuse me." He said and took out his phone. He pecked her on the cheek before he went outside to attend to his phone.

Grace cupped her face as she smiled. She was blushing real hard that she could feel her cheek come off. She fell on the chair where she had earlier dropped her purse. She laughed out a little. She hit her chest lightly as she felt her heart racing fast. This was the best kiss of her life.

"Hey." Michael said as he entered. Grace stood up abruptly.

"Hey."

"Uhm, I, I uhm. He stuttered.

" Don't worry. I mean I enjoyed it, I liked it. Didn't you?" Grace rushed her words. He smiled and came closer to her.

He brushed his hands over her face and rested his gaze on her eyes.

"I loved it and enjoyed every bit of it, your lips. I would have loved to see iced cream melting on your lips and me licking them off." He said and pecked her again. This time on her lips.

Grace smiled. "You can. If only we can still go out and get one. I mean, I can go and change if you want." She said shyly.

"Awesome idea. Why don't you stay back and shower or something and I'll get it for you? How about that?" He said stepping back.

Grace nodded. "Sounds like an awesome idea."

"Okay?"

"Okay."

"Give me thirty minutes and I'll be back." He said and left the house.

Grace screamed when she was sure he was out of sight. She quickly ran to the room, undressed and entered the bathroom. Under the shower, she massaged her lips and replayed the whole kissing scene in her head. She smiled. With all what's going on she really wants to tell him about baby. She felt it was okay for him to step into her world, to know she grew up an orphan and she did a great work in becoming this beautiful and intelligent woman he adores. Even when she lacked food and all in the orphanage home, she till made it through. Then it struck her! Orphanage! Children! Limited supply! The public!

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" She exclaimed and ran out of the bathroom. She quickly threw on a simple home wear and ran to her study at the living room, writing out her idea.

"You did not lock your door." Michael said and entered closing the door behind him. He dropped the nylon bag he was crying on the table.

"Oh. I forgot. Besides, I was expecting you."

"Oh. Come over. Let's melt this ice in our mouth." He said and grinned.

She stood up and joined him at the table. They sat on the floor and began their journey into the big Supreme plate iced cream.

"What were you doing when I came in. You looked busy, hope I didn't disturb anything?" He said putting down his spoon.

" You won't believe it. While I was having my shower, the ultimate idea to bring O'Connell company out of the mud came to me." She said excitedly.

"Really, wow. C'mon, tell me." He said eagerly.

She was about to then she stopped.

"I'll share it with you when I tell the whole team." She said plainly.

"You want me to wait till Monday?"

She nodded.

"Grace, C'mon tell me. Let me know what that smart head of yours cooked up already." He said and touched her laps.

"Well, you know it's the rule that we shouldn't share until the team is together. So, I don't want to break the rule. You know how that makes me feel." Grace told him. She was being completely honest.

He groaned. "Grace." He pulled closer to her and held her hands.
"I just want to know. To appreciate you." He said and kissed her lips. He shifted back. "But it's okay if you don't wanna tell. I guess you are still trying to warm up to me. Take your time." He scooped another iced cream in his mouth.

Grace felt bad shutting him out. He's just trying to be supportive, Grace what's wrong with you? She went closer to him.

"I'm sorry. Just trying to follow rules but you know what I think I need your help in some aspect." She said and stood up to her study table. She came back with the book she was working on earlier and gave it to him.

"Wow! Grace, this is brilliant." He looked at her. She smiled. "Come here." He said and pulled her to himself, he kissed her and she reciprocated.

"The orphanage is the most pitiful public item and O'Connell being a beneficiary is great. Reality shows with the children, it's awesome. How did you think of this?"

"The orphanage is where I always go to so I just thought why not bring them to picture." Grace replied.

"You did well, baby."

Baby.

"Uhm, Michael. Are we now a thing? I mean, are we dating?" She asked not looking at him.

Michael was startled but he's not losing out.

"Uh yeah. Sure. If that's what makes you happy." He said. Grace smiled.

Grace nodded and kissed him again. She was so elated. She felt so divine with multiple blessings. They finished up the iced cream and Michael set out to leave.

"Babe. I was thinking, the plan is still in rough work. I don't want you stressing yourself. I hate my girls to be stressed. So why don't you give me, then I'll help you type, print and bind it. It would be ready on Monday for the whole team." Michael said fiddling her hair.

She gave it little or no thoughts.
"Okay. That's sweet of you. Thank you." She hugged him. She ran inside and handed the book to him.

"Goodnight, luv." He called it in a romantic way and kissed her.

Grace smiled as she entered her house. She jumped on her bed and hugged her pillow for long. Love is great, the feeling is awesome.
