BEHIND OUR LOVE...

BEHIND OUR LOVE... CHAPTER 24
BY MIEMIEBEE

IZZY'S POV;

           As our lips touched each others, I was stunned, I felt my feet trembling, my heartbeat skyrocketed at the touch of his lips, my lungs couldn't function nomore, my mind was out of me. James Oh my God. Kissing James is the best experience that has ever happened to me. His lips were moist, soft, and sweet just as I imagined them or even more. It was like I was kissing some kind of fruits yes! I can sense strawberry and.. And gosh! Maybe pineapple yes definately. Strawberry and pineapple flavour. If I were to be granted a wish now its going to be James and I kissing forever.

     His smell, his taste, his touch combined all together made me forget where I was. I wanted to further the kiss but I was afraid, afraid maybe he'll pull out... I can't take it anymore even if he is going to pull out I must further the kiss, I want to taste you deep inside James just as I was about to further the kiss? He pulled out, I felt like slapping myself at that moment.

          I quickly averted my gaze to the floor avoiding his. As how our faces where close to each other, I can feel his warm breathe tickling the tip of my nose. I can't help but lick my lips as if I wanted chewing them off.

                The rising hail made us all stare at the clapping guests including my parents and his. They were all putting on a smile, a cheerful smile from the heart. They were all applauding cheerfully and optimistically wishing I and my fake fiancè the best in future.

My mom and Aunt Elena were  shedding tears of joy I didn't know the time I started crying too. As mom took her steps forward, James quickly averted his eyes to me and wiped off my tears so gentlemanly. His mom and mine arrived at thesame time pressing us both a tight warm hug and showering blessings upon us. So did our fathers...

And from then, all the guests, one by one started congratulating us dropping cards, and flowers.

       My engagement day is probably the best not even one of the, but the best day of my life. James didn't let go my hand even if it was for a minute. He held me possessively in his warm, fragrant body.

      “How I wish James will be like this forever, how I wish he'll realise just how much I love him someday and love me back. I'll wait, even if it'll take me a lifetime I'll wait for that day James” I state while stealing glances at his strikingly gorgeous face.

     The party ended an hour later, mom gathered all the gifts I've recieved from family and friends and put them in dad's car trunk.

We were about leaving when James came running, “uh mr Stewards if you'll permit me I would love to take Izzy somewhere.” he state scratching the back of his head.

“Oh nonsense” her dad state humourously. “She's all yours now. Izzy off you go.”

     I really don't want to follow James because I know what he has in store for me. I know I was going to pay for making him kneel infront of me.

“Yes? Or are you not going with him?” Mum questioned.

I protested the worried look on my face and nodded solemnly.

     James instantly grasp my hand smiling chivalrously at me. I smiled back and we walked off. On reaching to his car I turned around and saw no one was starring at us. I snatched my arm away from his grasp. He turned and looked at me with a questioning expression on his face.

      “I'm not following you” I say in a cracky voice.

   He looked at me with cold eyes and smirked evily “so you're not ready to pay for what you did, lol don't worry you'll pay eventually.”

       Not long enough dad's car came and passed by and some minutes afterwards I made my way out from James place. He called my name and I stopped, “sure you know I have to be the one to take you home right? Then get the f*ck in don't exasperate me the more, I'm already feeling like killing you now.”

       I calmly walked passed the bonnet side and shoved myself into his hot car. I prayed earnestly. A minute later he came in and starts the ignition. No one of us talked to each other and nothing came running into my mind than our kiss, I can't help but replay the image in my head. I didn't know when I started licking my lips all over again.

    “Get out.” He said in an angry tone. What! Is he going to drop me by the street? I glanced by the window only to see James has already parked infront of our house. Gosh! When did we arrive?

         Are you for real Izzy? the logical voice in my head questioned. How will you know we've arrived or not when all you do is to day dream. I disgracefully covered my face with my hand and opened the door.

         Just as I was about coming out, James pulled me by the arm I have to fall back to my chair again. “You won't get away with what you did today Izzy, I'll make sure you pay for it.” And he instantly let go off my arm. My eyes fill with moisture at that very instant I didn’t say anything or talked back at him I just silently walked into our house.

      On reaching inside, I saw no one in the living room I thanked god and rapidly winced to my room. I locked the door and laid flat on my bed. Tears won't stop from coming out of my eyes and rolling down my cheeks.

             For goodness sake why will I be crying on my engagement day? James why won't you see the good in me, what wrong have I ever done you? I rise up from my bed and wiped off my tears. All I did was love you

★★★★★

        And that was how my miserable life continued moving, hoping for James' love but never once did he called me again, never once did he visited me and never once did he texted me again. I know to him I don't even exist. I've come to realise thats its not even love am feeling towards James is more like an obsession is like am obsessed by him, I can't stop myself from falling for him...

3 months later...
      On a satutday morning, I was sitted on a chair alone in our backyard admiring the peaceful singing birds when I heard the sound of mom's car ignition.

       Okay, okay Izzy man up today and meet mom, will you?

    And I rise up from the chair and made it to the parking lot. Just as I arrived there, I saw her coming out of her car and I welcomed her warmly, she thanked me and then smiled. “Lets go in mom” I said. I brought her a glass of water before sitting next to her “uhm mom, there's this I've been wanting to tell you.”

     “Oh really sweetheart, and whats that?”

     Lemmi lie, time to lie great liar Izzy.

    “Uh you see James called me just some minutes ago..” I paused.

“Yes...” She said nodding

         “So it was about our wedding, he said since he was the one that brought up the idea of our engagement” I lied playing with my engagement ring I cherish morethan anything else. “I should be the one to talk to you guys now about our wedding.” I finished covering my face shyly.

      She laughed humourously “O nonsense! You guys are hilarious, well don't worry I'll call his mom and we'll talk about it.”

      I placed a kiss on her cheek “I love you mom.” I stood up in order to go to my room. Just as I was about to leave I remembered something I sat back again. “Uh mom I need to tell you this, please don't inform James mother that he has something to do with this 'cuz that was our bargain.”
 

     She chuckles, “sure dear I won't mention that part to her as she didn't mention your part in the engagement too am sure that was what you two did also for the engagement.” she giggled.

      I felt shy even though it was a lie and I squint. “You always read me like a book mom.” I winced to my room and laid flat on my bed.

       I can't wait to bear the name MRS PATRICKS (James' surname).
