Where It Leads

Chapter Fourteen

When I remember what he does to me, I feel warmth run down my stomach. Once he asked to come visit me in Sweden but I had declined. Though he had told me that he needed to share important information with me before I resume work. I am glad with how far our relationship has come, now he is all that feels my mind as I stare at endless clouds from the window. 'when I get you under my bed, I would make you forget all names but mine'. Those were his exact words. I could visibly feel and see myself shiver in anticipation. Even I can't wait to be in his arms.

I can hear some speaking but my mind is somewhere, I guess the words weren't meant for me. I can picture him touching me in my most intimate places whispering things meant for just me. I couldn't help but shut my eyes briefly and inhale deeply but then I feel someone tap me gently on my shoulder making me snap out of it and face him.

"hey! I have been trying to get your attention for some time now. You seem to be lost in your own world"

"am sorry, am listening now"

"I said, you must be anxious to meet someone"

"you have no idea" I draw my words and I don't know if he can, but I can feel the huskiness of my voice.

"your lover?"

"yes"

"I thought as much"

"excuse me, what!"

"I have been watching you. Have seen you stare dreamingly plus the smiles that light up your face and the shudders. He is really a lucky man"

"thanks"

"since I can't ask you out, do you perhaps have a sister? Cousin? I want to date one of them."

I couldn't help but chuckle. "why?"

"isn't it obvious? I can't have you Cos you are in love so your sister would have the same quality as you. I want someone who would think of me the same way you are thinking about that guy"

"who told you am in love?"

"it's written all over you"

I now have a full blown smile now. This guy is funny and has a way of making me comfortable with him. I take in his appearance; he is fair and handsome so to speak, and that gold wrist watch which I don't know the make screams of wealth. I discreetly check him out, even his shoe must be worth a fortune. I look around, maybe I would see some bodyguards, but I see none, he looks carefree and I just stare at him.

"you seem to like what you see" he says with a beautiful smirk

"never" I believe this guy needs to have his ego tamed

"just admit it, am way hotter than your boyfriend"

"not even close"

"oh, that's a first" he says looking surprised

"I bet you have girls running to you"

"it's refreshing to see that you don't feel that way. The more reason for me to meet a sister of yours. Though I would have preferred you" smiling

"cut it out"

He gives me his hand to shake and I just stare at him like he has grown two heads.

"I am Phinehas and you?"

Now I get it "oh, call me Peace"

"we would be landing soon. why don't I get your contact, we can talk more about the sister of yours" he says with a mischievous glint in his eyes.

"I don't think so"

"fine, guess I would have to find it my way then. See you when I see you"

"funny you"
