Three Perfect Days

Chapter 10

-Luke-

I watch her as she sleeps and I can't stop myself from smiling. Having her in my arms feels so right.

When she told me that she doesn't want to come here I feel sh!t. But when she asked me if she could still join the trip that sh!t feeling just disappear. At that very moment I thought that was my happiest moment in this trip but it wasn't.

When I kissed her and she kissed me back, that was the happiest moment.

I know she's thinking about our relationship. Me being her boss is not a good situation. People may think that she is plotting something bad.

It is people's nature to judge other people base with their appearance and specially with the social status.

Wait. We are not yet together. Why am I thinking these things? Are we?

"Hey," she said. Her eyes is looks so sleepy.

"Hey beautiful. Still sleepy?" I said and I kissed her temple.

I can't stop myself from kissing and touching her.

She nods and bury her head in my chest. Before we fell asleep here in the sofa she told me that she's sleepy but for some reason she can't find a comfortable position.

I thought she's not comfortable in my arms but when she buried her head in my chest she easily fell asleep.

I never find this position appealing but with her it's different. 

"For some reason I feel safe here." she said and kissed my chest

I smile. "Maybe that's where you really belong." 

She looks up at me and smile. And she gave me a peck.

"Sweet talker."

"Sweet lips." I said grinning at her.

She smiles and kisses me again. I can stay here forever with her.

I never experience love but I know that this feeling I'm feeling right now with her is so close to love. But not love.

From the definition of love in books it's not love. It more like lust. But there is something about this feeling that doesn't also fit with the definition of lust.

Something in between. 

"Anika?"

"Hmmm?"

"Do you believe in fairytales?" I ask her. I don't know why but I feel like asking.

"Nope! Fairytales are not real and I don't believe in something that is not real."

She don't believe in fairytales? That's new. Most of the girls I've talked with believes in fairytales and they also hope to have their own fairytale. 

"Most of the girls believe in fairytales.." She cuts me before I can finish

"Most. Not all."

"Why?" I furrowed

"Fairytales are too perfect. Too good to be true. Perfect prince. Perfect girl. Perfect love. Perfect sh!t. And as I said a while ago, I don't believe in things that are not real. And perfect things are not real."

Hearing those words coming out from her sweet lips is unbelievable. A girl with such beauty that doesn't believe in fairytales?

"Do you?" she asks

I look at her.

"No. I never believe with those stories. I'm living in the real world where princes and princess are old. Where magic is just an act. And a knight is just a piece in chess. Where curses is part of a horror movie~"

"And love?" she cuts me

"Love?" I ask and she nods

"Love is just part of a song. Love is a word that some people uses when they did something not right. Love is a word that complicates everything."

She smiles. A sad smile.

"I don't like complicated things~" she said almost a whisper

"But I always end up with a complicated situation. Maybe I should change my middle name to complicated." She jokes but with a hint of sadness

"I always run from those complications and now I'm here. With you. With a complicated feelings in a complicated situation."

She pressed herself with mine. She have feelings for me? A complicated feeling? 

"Anika~"

"But I can't stop this. I can't and I won't. I'm selfish. I don't want to end something that makes me happy. Being with you feels so good."

I was about to say something but she kissed me.

I know that this thing with us is not right. But she's right, it feels so fvcking good. And I don't even want to end this.

~>~>~>~>~>~>~>

The next morning, as I open my eyes a warm and sweet smile greets me.

She kissed me and smiled at me again.

How can you stop something if it is fvcking good? When it makes your day and make your heart races. I hate complicated things too but God, this.. she.. makes me happy. 

At this moment, I just want to kiss her, hug her and ~

"What are you thinking?" she asked

"Something illegal," I said and grinned at her

Her kissable lips formed a small "o" that makes me chuckle. I reached for her and hugged her.

"Thanks." 

"for what?"

"For yesterday, for today and for tomorrow." I kissed her shoulder that makes her shiver. I smile.

"Stop!"

"What? Why?" I asked

"Because you are not the only one who can think something illegal here so stop kissing my shoulder." she said and that makes my body shiver, excited and something inside me is building up. Now all I want to do is to kiss her shoulder and see what is she thinking when she say illegal.
