Chapter 18




Does Charles really feel this way towards me? If he said it to his mother it has to be true..

I finally said my goodbyes to everyone in the office making sure to drop paperwork to my intern. I got out to my car and started to drive to Charles house, When I was at a stoplight I quickly texted Charles that I would be visiting him soon. I wasn’t to far from starbucks so I went through the drive through and got me and Charles some coffee. I checked my phone before the lady in the window gave my my drinks… No answer. I wonder what he’s doing?

When I arrive to his house I can see that some off his lights are off but I find the spare key under the mat at the front door. I feel like an intruder just doing this but I remember when he said I could come over any time I wanted to. When I opened the door I put the key back under the mat, I could hear Marleys paws tapping on the floor and I saw her come through the kitchen entrance and I petted her head and went to find Charles.

“Charles, You here?” I asked in a monotone. No answer.

As I walked through the kitchen I heard some light snoring coming from the bedroom. Being the idiot I am I stuck my head through the door opening and looked inside and saw Charles sleeping peacefully. Marley then came running in and jumped onto his bed causing him to wake up. Before I got to hide Charles saw me.

“Ana? What are you doing here?” He asks, his voice thick with sleep.

“Sorry I came to drop your camera off, You dropped it when you left.” He slowly got up and I showed him the camera and he took it out of my head smiling and mouthing a ‘Thank you’.

“And I may have went through your camera files” I say, hoping he wouldn’t be mad.

“Did you watch any of them?” He asked walking into the kitchen while I followed him.

“I did… The one where. Um. You were talking about me to your mother” I said awkwardly.

“Oh you saw that?” He clears his throat. “Sorry.”

“Don’t be… I thought it was sweet” His eyes went large at the sound of my words.

“You thought it was sweet? I was expecting you to be creeped out…” He says.

“Not as creepy as me coming into your house while you're sleeping and watching you” I laughed and he smiled.

“Yea you’re right, you’re a stalker” He jokes with me.

“Shut up” I push him slightly to push him back. He looked at me as if he were hurt.

“How dare you” He laughs. That laugh is gold…

“Oh, I’m sorry! Are you okay?” I laughed and put my hands on his face checking if he had any ‘bruising’

He looks to the coffee on the table “Is one mine?” He asks and I nod pointing to the one that is his. He quickly takes a sip and hums sweetly signaling me that he enjoys it.

“Thank you” He smiles.

“For being rudely woken up you’re in a good mood” I laughed lightly. Charles doesn't say anything but just stares at me. He quickly sets his coffee down and heads towards me, he puts a hand behind my neck and one on my cheek and our lips touch and move at the same time. I was very pulled back at his affection but eventually melted into him kissing him slowly.

His hands slowly made his way down to the small of my back and they stopped there not daring to go any lower.

“Charles” I stopped the kiss and looked up to him. “Why are you doing this?” I asked him and our foreheads touch.

“Ana, I love you…” He finally says after a moment of silence and I connect our lips at the sweet sound of him saying I love you… I know this is totally wrong but it feels so right. I can feel his smile into the kiss, the taste of coffee fading with every movement.

Charles ended the kiss before it could get any further…

“Ana, be my girlfriend” He says before our lips brush against each other.

“Charles I don’t know…” He pulls his head away at my response and gives me a confused look.

“I know I haven’t known you for a while but I believe we have a connection, ever since we met…” The way he says those words sends electricity through my body.

“I believe you because I feel it too. But you don’t know me…” I say and we let go of each other.
