Bi-stressed

CHAPTER 18

It's Sunday.

Zac and me go for 9 am mass...

"Oh Happy Wedding Anniversary!" I wish Halsey and Louis after breakfast.

"Oh thanks for remembering." Halsey teases.

Zac stays over the whole day. The whole day goes by in making Christmas sweets. Evening comes and I begin to get dressed for the Christmas Carnival. Aunt Steph, Halsey and Louis leave for evening mass.

I insist Zac to go for a bath since I'm already ready and he hasn't even started. I practically end up dragging him to the bathroom.
Like he said, he actually comes out in less than 10 mins, shirtless, wearing only dress pants.

As I stand there staring, he jerks his head to move his wet hair aside. His hair is jet black followed by his dark brown skin adonis look going on. His russet brown eyes making me weak as  we share an eye contact. The cut in one of his brow is more noticeable now and his full, plumpy lips are eager to kiss mine. His skin is velvety and his broad muscles makes him look more attractive.

He puts his shirt on and says in a serious tone. "Stop staring like that."
"You're eyeing me." He smirks.

"Whatever." I roll my eyes and turn around, blushing.

"What the hell? Did you just roll your eyes at me."

"Yes, why?" I stick out my tongue.

He walks towards me and grabs my neck. "Don't ever do that again." He warns seriously then presses his lips against mine, kissing me.

I pull away soon and move towards the mirror, straightening the remainder of my curls. He takes the flat iron from my hand, when he sees me struggling with the back hair and begins to straighten them.

Cute-things-a-boyfriend-can-do  I smile to myself and he catches me smiling through the mirror.

"I know you like me doing it."

Of course I do but I am not going to admit it.

...

We had a good time tonight at the Christmas Carnival and then at Halsey and Louis' wedding anniversary dinner.

As I reached home, I changed into my night pajamas and lay on the bed with my phone.

Loads of notifications appeared in which I spotted a message from Luna. At first I felt like just ignoring it but then I couldn't help it, I was dying to talk to her anyway.

The message said, *"We need to talk."*

*"Yeah say."* My heart is pounding as I send the reply.

*"Cause I can't lie, I love you still for all my life. I always will, even though I know how this story ends. I'd do it all again."*

I feel my heart sinking at this message...
