Can You Mend My Broken Heart? - 533 Honeymoon begins

He had gone to such lengths to re-create the first meetup on her wedding night.

She couldn’t have asked for more.

Seeing that he had turned back after throwing the stuff in the bin, she quickly wiped away her tears and beamed in his direction. He came back and knelt in front of her. Gently lifting her legs, he buckled up her heels, and when he was done. he got up and said,

“Remove them as soon as we board, ok?”

With a delicate smile on her lips, she just nodded and fondly looked at him.

“What?” he asked, seeing her smiling like that.

“Nothing! Nothing Raymond Walker! You just…”

“I just, what?” he asked getting impatient.

“You just never cease to make me fall in love with you over and over again. Your sweetness is like vanilla ice-cream and you just keep topping it up day after day. Chocolate syrup, nuts, crunchies…. ooofff… I am gonna die someday. Your love will be the death of me someday,” and she let out a deep breath.

Narrowing his eyes Raymond looked at her with a question mark on his face. His jaws had become all taut.

“Never… As in ever… dare to talk about death in front of me. We just got together and I cannot let you talk or even think about parting away from me. Am I clear to you?”

“Hey! Hey! I was just saying. I mean just like that,” and saying that she tiptoed and kissed him on his lips. Angry that he was, he didn’t part his lips and stood there nonchalantly, still angry with the words that she had spoken.

But she didn’t give up.

She made a garland out of her hands and wrapped it around his neck. She kissed him a few more times but he didn’t move a muscle even though deep down he was in a state of haywire. So she looked up at him and met his eyes which were still angry.

But she was angry now for she didn’t get a reply to her kisses. Her lips were taut and she was breathing with her nose which flared a bit every now and then. Raymond was amused to see that look on her face but still smeared that poker-face look, on his to see what was that little birdie going to do next.

And the next second she hoisted herself up and bit his lips.

“Umm…. Aki… Akira!” retorted Raymond and it was then that she found the gap. Without wasting a single second she locked in his lips in the grasp of hers. She sucked them hard as if she had been hungry for ages, and why wouldn’t she? After all, it was he who had teased her, pushed her to the brink where her desires took control over her.

They didn’t care where they were, they didn’t care who was looking at them. The flame in their heart was burning everything down, inhibitions, shame, awareness, they had all been turned to rumbles.

“Ah… Ummhhh….. Ray….” she gasped and placed her feet back on the floor. Grabbing his shoulders tightly she closed her eyes and rested her face on his chest as she started gasping for air.

“I am… I think…” she tried to speak words but all that she could do was shudder in his arms.

He pulled her closer and caged her tightly in his arms as if he wanted to absorb every tremor that ran through her body. Kissing fondly on the top of her head he said,

“It’s ok… It’s ok… I am sorry. I took it too far. I am sorry.”

She hugged him back tightly as if she wanted to get absorbed into his body. Given a chance she would have. Their souls were already twined together even though they resided in different physical bodies.

“I am fine,” she said but her voice sounded a bit shaky. It was probably the tension that made her voice sound hoarse. So he rubbed her back for some time, till he could feel her haggard breath easing a bit on his chest.

“It’s time to board Akira!” he said and softly kissed on the side of her temple. “Go freshen up. I will be waiting for you here.”

It was then that she lifted her face which was burning red hot with embarrassment. She turned and walked towards the washroom, unable to even meet his eyes. So he caught her elbow and turned her around,

“Hey! It’s me. Look at me!” he said and lifted her chin up. But she still kept her eyes low.

“Akira look at me!” he said again and this time she complied and lifted her gaze up but then averted the next second.

“Man I would take you down this very moment, I swear Akira,” he said and kissed her lips gently and said,

“Don’t do this. Don’t ever hide from my eyes. Just don’t.”

“It’s us Akira. It’s you and me… Together and forever. No hiding!”

And then she lifted her gaze again. Her Bambi’s eyes and her fluttering flaps made his heart skip a beat.

“Off you go!” he said and gently nudged her towards the bathroom. As she walked away, he instantly regretted his plan of spending the night in the plane.

Because only he knew what demons lurked inside the body of his. It was going to be a very difficult night for him.
