Love at First Night - Chapter 142

The pasta was so delicious that we ended up eating two big dishes each of them. Then we watched a movie and went straight to bed.

The next morning a message woke me up, it was Cameron who wished me a good morning and then asked me to have breakfast with him in the same cafeteria nearer to his place.

I dressed up and reached the place where Cameron already waited for me there. My heart didn’t disappoint in reminding me what I was keeping from him since it began hammering in my chest as soon as my gaze fell on him. Pushing me to tell him about Madison before it was too late.

“Hi,” I said before kissing him.

He held my hand and then locked our lips back together in a long kiss.

“I have something to tell you,” I told him straight away because I felt like every second I passed without telling him the guilty grew inside me making my nerves tense a bit more.

My stomach clenched when he gazed at me and fear of losing him invaded my heart, making my hand tremble and my gaze flinch away.

“What happened?” He asked probably reading the signs.

The words got stuck in my throat, worrying the dimness I saw in his eyes would fade away once I tell him the truth. Or that his grip in holding my hand would release a bit and I would stop feeling so undefeatable when with him.

“Lily you’re worrying me.” He said stopping his way to the cafeteria to look at me intensely.

I released a loud breath, “Madison called me last night. She wanted to know why you fell in love with me and not with her.”

His jaw tensed up, just like I thought and his forehead creased. He swallowed down but the sparkle in his eyes was still there and the grip of his hand was still tight.

“She continued to insist about wanting to know more, she sounded very desperate. She asked my address to speak in person so I gave it to her.”

His forehead creased even more as if he was confused, “why would you give her your address and how did she even find your number?”

I entwined my fingers with him, brushing on his smooth skin with the tip of my thumb. I hoped neither this nor anything in the entire world would allow our hands from departing.

“I don’t know, I thought if I saw her maybe she would eventually stop harassing me. She said she called someone on the company pretending to be a client who wanted to speak with me to get my number.”

He nodded, still confused and unable to understand why I did those things, to be honest, I couldn’t understand either. It just happened so fast and I got caught in the spur of the moment.

He refound his compose and nodded, his hand was still glued on mine so I got reassured by his touch.

“Alright. So she left and didn’t do anything else?” He asked.

I shook my head, “no, nothing else.”

“If he contacts you again please ignore her and let me deal with her. She has to stop this immature insane behavior.”

I took a breath of relief and when my muscles relaxed he smiled.

“Why do you look so relieved?” He turned around and began walking to the cafeteria again.

” Because I was very worried you would be mad and eventually broke up with me.” As soon as my thoughts turned into speaking words I realized how pathetic my thought was and that it was insane to think he would break up with me and ruin our relationship just because of his ex’s visit.

“what?” He laughed out amused and he shook his head. I smiled too, luckily he didn’t get mad. My heart lost the pondering weight of preoccupation and his fingers cupped my chin.

“You need something much more serious than this to drive me mad, Lily. I was nervous she bothered you too much but I am glad you’re fine. I told you that I won’t let anyone get in the middle of our fairytale do you remember? I wouldn’t let this little complication either.”

“I do remember.”

I smiled so happily and was excited to hear those words leave his mouth. I couldn’t believe he wasn’t even scolding me or getting angry at all. He was a good man who knew how to treat a woman even if he had never dated anyone before.

“Then remember it forever Lily because I will never change my mind.” His thumb pressed on my chin, and his lips brushed gently on mine. He kissed me tenderly as if he needed to let the words pass through my lips to make me believe it.

“I will.” I smiled, traveling my gaze to his lips and then back to his big brown eyes.

“I will remember it and never doubt it ever again.” My eyes sparkled. “Promise,” I whispered.

“Good.” and after that, he kissed me, more passionately, his hand set on my hips, and with a gentle push, our bodies collided together. His hands moved down my hips and my body vibrated in his call. How good his touch feels on me. I could feel it penetrating in my bones recognizing it as if his hands were made to touch me.

His touch was secure and the kiss felt gentle and sweet, freeing me with all the doubts that occurred to me before seeing him. Now those were all useless, powerless, and didn’t have any effect on me. He forgave me once again, proving another time the truthfulness of his feelings for me. I had to stop worrying and overthinking, I had to focus on my feelings for him and trust him more. He wasn’t like other men so he didn’t deserve to be treated like other men.. If with others I could get anxious and stressed for the potential chance of them misbehaving or cheating on me, I had to remind myself Cameron would never do those things. Because just simply as it is, he isn’t like other men
