Can You Mend My Broken Heart? - 493 Back in the house

“What are you thinking?”

Raymond asked and gently unbuckled her seat belt.

Taking a deep breath, Akira replied,

“Nothing much. Too many memories. Everything is flooding in.”

Saying that she looked at Raymond and he could see her eyes brimming with tears. He wiped her tears gently and stroked her face lightly with his fingers and said,

“You promised me that you won’t cry anymore. All that we will have is happy memories together.”

Akira smiled and nodded her head vigorously as he cupped her face in his hands.

“Come let’s go.”

Saying that Raymond got out of the car and quickly went to the other side to escort his lady. Although deep down his soul was troubled, it was being soothed every single moment by her. Her profound love for him and her deep faith was something that he could read vividly from her eyes.

So pushing away his thoughts, holding her hand in his own, he opened the door and asked,

“Do you remember the first time you had come to my place?”

“Of course I do.”

Akira said and blushed all scarlet.

“By the way, I didn’t tell you a secret.”

“What? What? tell me now.”

“That day that you were supposed to come, I couldn’t sleep all night. I got up early and cleaned the entire house by myself. I even changed the sheets in my bedroom in case…”

“In case what mister? You were hoping to get lucky on day one itself? Huh?”

“Well, I was just hoping. I mean just in case…”

“You jerk…”

Saying that Akira pushed Raymond away.

“Oh come on Akira. I was just being frank. Don’t lie that you didn’t feel anything that day?”

Asking that Raymond sauntered close to her.

Holding her hand he placed it on his chest and asked,

“Didn’t you feel what I was feeling when we danced? Didn’t you feel like your heart was burning with desire?”

Akira looked up into his eyes, but he was looking at her so intently that she couldn’t stop her cheeks burning crimson red.

“What? Why are you blushing so bad? Is that a yes?”

“I am not saying anything.”

Saying that Akira quickly raced upstairs and Raymond followed right behind her after closing the main door.

“Where do you think you are trying to escape into?”

Saying that Raymond caught her from behind, encapsulating her waist with his slender long arms.

“Come with me.”

He said and pulled her into his bedroom.

“Why are we going into your bedroom?”

“It’s our bedroom Akira. Everything that is mine is yours now.”

“Do you know how much I waited for this day to happen. A day where everything is normal. A day where I don’t have to hide anymore. A day where I don’t have to worry about dodging a bullet. A day when I can touch you, kiss you the way my heart wants.”

Saying that she encompassed all the fire within her heart and tiptoed to enable her lips to reach the limits of his cheeks. She locked her arms around his neck and then let her tender lips touch his cheeks. The moment her tender lips brushed against the stubble of his cheek, she let out a faint gasp of air.

“God !!! I missed this so much.”

Saying that she moved to his left side and placed another warm kiss on his other cheek.

The touch of her lips had aroused the primal desire that was hidden deep in his heart. He looked into her eyes which were burning with want and leaned closer. Brushing her lips close to her ear he whispered?

“What else did you miss …. ?”

Before he could even add punctuation to his question, she turned towards him and gently placed her lips on his.

A sudden warmth splurged through their bodies and a sudden hunger resurfaced. In a split of a second that soft warm kiss turned into a passionate one, kindled with longing and craving. Their lips fit perfectly with each other, dancing in a symphony. They drowned themselves in the moist embrace, their bodies aching for more with every passing second.

But for her, she had reached her paramount. So she suddenly pulled herself apart, panting for breath. Wetting her lips, she gulped and said,

“Give me a moment, please !”

Clutching her chest with her hand, she slowly bent her head down, gasping for air. But he was in no mood for a break, not after when she had shown him such an intense preview that his mind was wandering for more. But seeing her trying hard to catch her breath, he passed. He paused and took deep breaths to get a hold of himself.

It was already dead in the night and from the looks of her, he could guess that even though her heart wanted something, her body wanted something else.

So he lifted her up and said,

“Come, rest in my arms.”

She didn’t know how he could understand her better than she did herself. She was literally tired with the entire jaunt that had lasted throughout the day but was too shy to speak about it to him. All that she wanted was to kiss him but also to curl up in her bed.

A smile etched on her lips and she asked while touching the corners of his lips with her index finger.

“How come you don’t look tired?”

He gently placed her on his bed and adjusted the pillow for her and said.

“I guess it’s a guy thing. I guess I can never get tired of ….”

“Of what Raymond?”
