Chapter 17
Jayce
I don’t know why but I still can’t trust myself that Rachel is back with me and not only that, she loves me as much as I love her.
I hope this is not just me imagining things, but I know that is not the truth because when I turn my head I find her right beside me, with that smile on her face.
God, how much I have missed her and the sweet innocent genuine smile of hers. Not the one she plasters on her to fool others, but the one that comes right from her heart.
“Why are you staring at me?” asked Rachel.
“You’re beautiful,” I said, the first thing that came to mind while looking at her.
“Yeah, and you’re just a fool,” She replied, laughing out loud. “Stop buttering me up, and watch the screen.”
I turned my head to the screen of television, groaning out loud. “What so interesting about bunch of people sucking there faces in a setup lone island,”
Rachel turned her face, eyeing me in a weird manner. “First it is not sucking face kissing. Second, I’m bored. That’s why I’m watching a bunch of rubbish on the television.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
“You know normal people sleep by now,” I started staring at the watch on my phone, clearly at 1:00 am.
“I’m not sleepy, at all,” Rachel sighed.
“Then what do you want to do expect watching random peoples sucking faces,”
She laughed again hearing my words. “It’s kissing, not sucking face. And if you hate it so much then I’ll turn it off…….“ Rachel said, with a mischievous smile on face. “But it’s one condition.”
I guess I know what she wants. But I want to hear the words from her mouth. “What condition?”
“Kiss me,”
“So after watching random people’s faces, you want suck mine.” Rachel groans hearing my words, but on the other hand I was laughing looking at her like these.
“Stop with your sucking, It’s Kiss for God sake.”
‘I know very well what a kiss is,” I said, wrapping my arm around waist pulling her body closer to mine.
“Jayce,” Rachel mumbled, as her breath quickens.
“Are you nervous,” I asked, with our faces a mere inch away from each other. So, closing that one more moment can make our lips touch each other.
“No…,” she said, her voice sounding more like a mere whisper.
We stayed like for a few seconds at each other, with her eyes staring at mine. Rachel eyes like a mirror to her clearly shows the emission that’s running through her mind, the same eyes, that right now filled with so much love, but behind all the love I can also hear the sadness, the hollow part of her soul, the despair, the fear that resulted in our seperation. The pain that I want to fill by giving her all the love I have in life to her.
“Jayce…..,” Rachel mumbled, with her hand brushing gently on my cheek.
I grabbed her hand in mine before plastering my lips over hers. Grasping, Rachel parted her mouth slightly, and I slid the tip of my tongue between her inviting lips, teasing her tongue.
In the meantime my hands moved around her figure, hugging her tightly. I can barely breathe with my heart beating fast as Rachel’s hands move over my chest and inside my shirt.
I kissed down her jaw, I moved my left from around her figure to her hair, grabbing a handful of it tilting her head back, to her allowing my lips to freely explore over her neck.
Things were starting to get all hot all of sudden as Rachel ripped my open calling my name out loud. “Jayce…,”
I broke the kiss staring at her face, “Do you want to stop,” I said, breathing heavily.
“No,” She said, pulling my body up close, smashing her lips on mine, kissing passionately.
God, what am I doing, it was me who said, we continue our relationship with any sex fror few days, but now look us now. Its hasn’t even been 24hrs and we here savoring each other.
Things were just about to get hotter, but Rachel’s phone started ringing. Both of us tried our best to ignore the call but atlast we both sighed as Rachel grabbed her phone.
“Shit…,” She sighed and cursed, staring at the caller id.
“No you’re not disturbing,” Rachel said on the call, eyeing me.
Who the hell is she talking with so late, is it Daniel. And what she does by not disturbing these people clearly distrubed us.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be there in five,” She said, ending the call. And grabbed and started fixing her clothes and hair.
“Where are you going so late?” I asked, watching her rushing things.
“Today so hammering that I almost forget about my two babies,”
“Babies, What babies, whose babies.”
“I’ll tell you sometime later, I’ve really gone now.” she said, rushing towards the front door.
“You’re not going alone at this time.” I said, picking the keys of my car.
“Jayce, you’re worrying over nothing,”
“You’re not going alone, that’s final, either I drop you or you’re not going,” I said, opening the door for her.
“Fine,” She sighed, with anger, “But at least changed into something appropriate,”
I am looking at a shirt that now is hanging from my body, with all its buttons broken and torn in some place. “You’re right come with me,”
“Wait, why me? My dress is fine.” Rachel prostested.
“Well, you can’t see what I can do,” I said, staring at the back of her dress, with the button to be broken at any moment now. “Pick anyone you like,” I said, opening the one side of my closet that has been closed until now.
Rachel’s eyes popped iwde as her eyes scanned inside the closet. “Why do I still have them?”
“They are the same as you last left them,” I said, picking one random t-shirt and sliding it over my head. “Everything here is the same as you last left them,”
“BUt why…?”
“Maybe because I missed you, maybe because I want to cherish each and every memory we might spend in the house.”
“Jayce….,” Rachel mumbled.
“Are you not getting late now,” Rachel nodded with a smile, following me outside to the car.
I smiled at myself, shaking off the sad memories of the past. Because now is not the time to cry over our past, it is now time to rewrite our happy future together.
