Love at First Night - Chapter 130
The doorbell rang but I was still cleaning my room so I screamed at Joanna to go to open the door for me.
I heard her light footsteps crossing the door and then the familiar masculine voice of Cameron.
I felt like I was Cinderella waiting for her prince to visit her. Except that he wasn’t a prince and I didn’t have two evil sisters.
Maybe writers should start writing a new tale with Cameron and me as the main characters of it.
Joanna told him I was upstairs in my room and she probably gestured him to the door since after a few minutes I heard his footsteps slowly approaching the room.
Unconsciously my hands went to brush through my hair and then fix the folds of my skirt before I marched to my desk.
The door opened so I smiled highly when I met his gaze.
“Hi,” I whispered.
“Hi.”
Seeing him made my heart roll over in my chest and jump in happiness and excitement. It had only been a few hours since I saw him last time yesterday yet I already missed him so much.
I departed from the kiss to sit at the edge of the bed while he walked closer to my desk. He stared at the pc and the orchid plant on my desk.
His gaze then traveled on the polaroid at the bottom of a shelf upon the desk. He took the polaroid and then walked closer to me.
“Let’s take a photo.” He turned the camera around and clicked on it when we both posed smiling.
He turned his face to the side to stare at me and then slowly leaned closer to kiss me again. When our lips touched he clicked again the camera taking a second photo.
And then again when we both slouched almost falling onto the bed. He left the Cameron down on the bed to pull his fingers on my hair and smile.
“If someone told me we would be here right now I wouldn’t have believed them.” He whispered.
“Me either, but instead look at us now,” I murmured.
“We will do it, Lily.”
Joanna knocked at the door so we stood up and went to open the door together.
“I am sorry to disturb you, I wanted to tell you that I baked a cake earlier and we can eat it all together.”
We went down to the kitchen, on the table, there was a cheesecake she already cut in slices and led us to the dishes.
“No call today?” I asked Joanna referring to her usual daily video call with Justin.
She shook her head, “since we are currently having a guest today I will call him tomorrow.”
“Are you talking about your lucky guy?” Cameron asked and Joanna shyly nodded.
“If he is free on the weekend we could have a dimmer out. Lily should invite her sister too.”
Joanna’s face lit up and she immediately gazed at me waiting for my approval.
“It sounds like an amazing idea!” I commented.
Joanna’s smile grew bigger, “It does! I will ask him then. You’re a good man Cameron. I am so glad Lily met you.”
Cameron smiled to her, then to me, “I am glad I met her too.”
I wondered why Cameron struggled to meet his date’s acquaintances to the point that he made a rule about it if he got along amazingly with everyone.
He always knew what to say and how to make everyone like him.
Maybe he thought every woman was like Madison or that other people would tell the magazines about his deepest secrets. Whatever reason he had, I knew that Joanna would never do anything to put him in trouble because she knew it could affect me too.
Joanna slouched forward with a smirk on her face, “so, any plan for the future? When will your company be ready? And how will you name it?” She flickered her gaze to meet mine and she asked curiously.
“I haven’t thought about a name yet.” I said, “it will take a few months to be ready.”
Cameron intervened, “you should hire some assistants to help you, you can’t do everything on your own.”
Joanna giggled under her breath hearing Cameron’s comment.
“She always wants to do everything on her own. I doubt she will ever ask anyone help.”
I glowered at Joanna who lifted her hands in a sign of surrender, “I was just saying.” She whispered.
“I can do everything on my own, you don’t need to worry.” I offered Cameron a grateful smile.
“I want everything accorded to my plans so I will take care of everything on my own,” I confirmed my decision.
Joanna bought us some cookies she baked.
“I have everything set already anyways,” I said as I bit a biscuit and drifted my attention back to Cameron.
“I will take tomorrow’s day off. Ask Justin and Evelyn if they are free so we can meet.” Cameron said.
“I will,” I said wrapping my hands around him in a sincere hug.
“Then I will introduce you to my friends. I guess it’s time.” He continued smiling at me and hugging my back.
My heart drummed in my chest in response, his friends? He was really taking our relationship seriously. I couldn’t be happier.
“I can’t wait,” I whispered, I closed my eyes when he leaned forward and kissed the tip of my nose gently.
“You guys are too sweet and I had never seen her obsessed this much with a man.” Joanna intervened.
She frowned her forehead and knitted her eyebrows down.
“Hurt her and I will kill you, alright?” She pretended to be a killer threatening him with a fork.
Cameron and I both laughed.
He raised his hands in a sign of surrender “I promise you I won’t hurt her.”
I wondered if I ever loved at all because I never loved enough as much as I loved him.. I cared about the others, and I surely was affectionated to them but none of the men I had moved the strings of my heart like he did.
