SOPHIA CASTILLO
I wasn't angry with Adrian. I was just hurt. Firstly I didn't like the tone he spoke to me and how dismissive he sounded and secondly, I wanted to know why he said topics about his parents should never be brought up.
He knows a lot about me but I do not know much about it and it's sad. If we wanted our relationship to work out, we needed to know about each other.
It would have been better if he had told me nicely that he didn't want to talk about his parents the way he told me and it hurt my feelings.
I guess he doesn't care about me as much as he claims.
I had refused to go out with Ozge today as I wasn't in the mood and all I did was text Evelyn but I didn't tell her about the issues between Adrian and me.
I heard the sound of the door opening and I knew Adrian was back. Instantly I acted as if I was sleeping on the couch because I didn't want to speak to him.
"Sophia, where are you?" I heard Adrian say d his footsteps became louder. I knew he was fast approaching where I was.
"Oh, she's asleep." I heard him sigh.
I felt his lips on my cheek. He ran his finger through my hair. "Thanks so much for everything, Sophia. I promise to make it right to you," he whispered.
As soon as I felt his presence tone, I opened my eyes.
I began to wonder what happened to his parents. I did not get up from the couch immediately as I didn't want him to know that I wasn't sleeping.
After some minutes, I walked into the room. Adrian was shirtless with a towel wrapped around his waist and he seemed to be talking on the phone.
I couldn't help but admire his body. I swallowed the lump in my throat as I stared at his well-structured and built body. I wonder if he works out because the only thing I know he does is run every morning.
Adrian noticed my presence and he smiled at me.
"Can I talk to you later? Just do as I have told you. That's fine by me." Adrian said before ending the call.
"Hey," I called.
"Hi. I came earlier but you were asleep and I didn't want to wake you up," he said, walking closer to me.
"It's no problem," I told him.
He was now towering over my small frame with his height. He tucks a strand of hair behind my ear. "We will be going out for dinner soon. Get ready and I promise we will talk," he said.
"That's fine," I replied to him.
He placed his hands on my waist, pulling me closer to him and I rested my palm on his chest, feeling his perfectly structured body in my hands.
"Are you still mad at me?" He asked, staring deep into my eyes.
"Do you want me to be?" I asked him.
"No. Not at all," he answered.
"I'm sorry for the way I had spoken to you last night. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings. It's just that talking about my parents is something I do not like. It's..."
"It's fine Adrian. I get it. If you do not want to talk about them then it's fine. We can talk about then whenever you are comfortable," I assured him.
He heaved a sigh of relief.
"Thanks so much, Sophia. I'm glad you have told me to talk about them when I am comfortable but I must let you know I want to talk about them with you tonight. It's just I don't really trust people but now that I want you in my life, I want to tell you a lot about me," he said.
I wonder what could have happened as he sounded hurt from the way he spoke.
"That's no problem," I smiled at him.
He trailed his thumb on my lips and I shivered from his touch. He locked eyes with me for some seconds before glancing at my lips and then at my eye as if asking me for permission.
"Can I kiss you?" He asked and I felt a jolt of electricity run down my spine.
His voice sounded husky yet hot.
"Yes," I answered and in a nanosecond, he claimed my lips, leaving me short of breath.
I stood on my tippy toes so that I could give him better access. He pulled me impossibly closer to him as his lips glided mine. The feeling I felt was powerful and magical.
I moaned into the kiss. The kiss was slow as if he was taking his time. He bit the bottom of my lips and I gasped. During the process I gasped, he shove his tongue inside of me and I moaned.
I felt a pool of heat in-between my legs and my knees became weak.
He tightened his hold on my waist while the other of his hands guided my face.
I was getting better at it, the more we kiss. Unlike the other times we kissed, I was kissing him back, matching his movement.
He tasted divine. I felt my stomach rumble in joy from the kiss. In one word, pure bliss.
Adrian pulled back from the kiss and rested his forehead against mine and we both tried to catch our breath.
Adrian kissed my forehead and then he kissed my cheek, and then my ear lobe, and I felt a tantalizing feeling in the pit of my stomach.
He trailed kisses from my neck to my collar bone and I bit my lips to stifle my moan.
"Don't do that Sophia. I want to hear you moan," he whispered in my ears and I shivered.
"You don't know how bad I want you right now. It takes a lot from me to not do the bad things I have in my head to you," he said and I felt shivers run down my spine.
My eyes locked with his and I shivered for the umpteenth time. His eyes were dark and alluring at the same time.
"We will take one step at a time," he said to me before placing a small kiss on my lips.
