Chapter sixteen : The partycopyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwkNKB3LW5
(Day 3)copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62uIMgbbDZ
Kristen's POV:copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqCT73CRY3
"This is unbelievable. I cannot believe this is happening to me right now. Why god? Why?copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHNSnkpFF7
How is it my fault that I have been dragged into this mess?! Huh? It's all my parents fault.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZ03a2RY69
First they force me to get married to a guy I don't even like, and let me mention it wasn't just that I didn't like him or love him, he's a damn nightmare!! I'm married to the guy I hate the most in the entire universe… I despise Richard so much!"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTHjqnxFgY
I sigh and rub my forehead, feeling sad and angry. I am finally turning into an actual psycho, thanks to my mom. I am talking to myself. Today is the third day of our trip, and I'm trying to keep myself busy by sleeping and reading The Host all day. It's 7 am now and the party Richard's parents are throwing him is about to start. The guests are invited for dinner and I am not really sure what else this evening will entail, since I was hyperventilating when Richard told me about the party. I sigh and remember my rant to God. Where was I… Oh!copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtJWZvMGc8
"Then I got married, I am dating Damon secretly, which is driving me crazy. This is all so fake. My life is all fake. A fake husband , a fake wedding, and right now I should fake my emotions just like Richard told me yesterday. We are supposed to give them a show." I chuckled sarcastically at my life.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTSV0ydopr
"I can't believe my life depends on acting now. I can't just go there and pretend that I am in love with RICHARD!" I didn't realize I was shouting until I saw my mirror image staring back at me.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvw7vicyDa
My eyes wide from anger, and my lips red.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEUCe3IkkS
My palms sweaty and I could feel my heart pounding very fast against my chest.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvuoAy0eV8
I sigh and closed my eyes, trying to calm down. I breath in and out and to my surprise it actually works.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡUo52M1QgTN
I am wearing the dress my so called 'mother-in-law' has given me to wear to this special occasion. Honestly it's very nice.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡRa3QFjczky
Okay, nice is an underestimate, it looks very sexy!copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡJb0615EQDx
And I was very uncomfortable with it. It was strapless and felt very soft to the touch, it felt good on my skin actually, but I was still uncomfortable because it showed too much skin. Also, it hugged my curves, which I didn't even know I had.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hSXhAvnPb
It was just the symbol of perfection.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3El8jt8oa4
But unfortunately it was short- no, too short. It was about ten centimeters above my knees.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡqekKAXl4XL
I curl my hair and put some light make up on. I didn't want to go in there and look like a slut, and most importantly I didn't want Richard to get embarrassed because of me.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0HEgXbh83
Since all his childhood friends and relatives are going to be there actually, to cut it short, every single person attending this party are invited because they know Richard.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdRrTIqwRf
And for a second just the thought of that made me feel anxious and nauseous, because I felt like an outsider.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGZajWKF7q
But I have Richard by my side right?!copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5SFemZE8u
And he is a good friend of mine, I'm glad we are friends again. And I really hope our friendship lasts forever, because I don't know what would do and have done without him.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pf9wPB2Ed
I smile to myself, he is doing everything for me and I can feel it.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfyqS9bK0n
I am so very grateful that I have friends that I can rely on.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZG0Sj8A1n
And Damon, god I miss him.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zmQYibSdc
We have been texting these last three days, but I can't stop thinking of him. I am madly in love with him and last night Richard had woken me up with a frown on his face.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNUmlIkvEP
When I asked him what was wrong he said I had been screaming Damon's name in my sleep. And he thought maybe I had had a nightmare.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5dEGA8Spe
Yep! This proved how much I missed him.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2TwskmmA6
I miss his face, his smile, his warm embrace, his kiss-copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡer8yDOlEbQ
"Mrs. Anderson, Everyone's downstairs waiting for you."copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjUbXTNlOS
Scott's voice snaps me back to reality and I take one last look at myself in the mirror.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡedRjBeAhip
"I will come in a minute Scott" I replied confidently, which made me surprised.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPwC8n4NFZ
I suddenly get a good feeling about tonight. All I have to do is stick to our plan: me and Richard's plan.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50vI3ebpk3
*Flashback*copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIUNfqS1Ra
"I can tell my parents that you're not comfortable with the party if you want me to Kristen" Richard said. Concern was obvious in his voice.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Kidh19SKn
He was staring at me so intensely that I felt like I was about to melt, I loved the way he looked at me, and I had no idea why.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWKc4qnzE9
It just calmed me.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpDTQB1s5a
"It's okay Richard , we can do this.. I can do this"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZYNKOSkps
Richard sighed and raised an eyebrow, he was clearly not convinced.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3RM9ALDII
"I mean it, just leave it be, besides we better appreciate everything they do for us, because they don't know about our secret. And they think this is the best for us."copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7K5guz0oA
Richard sighed again and nodded his head in agreement. He was so unlike himself, I knew just by the way he acted that there was so many thoughts running through his mind. Too many.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZIE242JmZ
He bit his bottom lip and stared up at me, then he smiled.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhfdeES8iF
"Are you sure?" When I didn't respond Richard held my hand in his and came closer so that his eyes were staring directly at mine.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoVIW1VYFY
I tensed up, and he felt it, so he let go of my hands and sighed for the third time today.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtHhqpa5TZ
"I can tell them that they're ruining our honeymoon, or I might tell them that- "copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡtB1v59ri0T
"Richard, I am sure" I interrupted whatever he wanted to say, and smiled at his surprised expression. He cleared his throat and smiled back at me. Which sliced my heart into pieces, no wonder why girls were attracted to him and were drooling over him all the time.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡOY981ZNFsP
Then I remembered, being the good actors we were we had to kiss, which made my smile go away and instead a frown took it's place.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBo1YH8oJb
"You can hold my hands and kiss me"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSNbr63Qfe
I will never ever forget how Richard reacted when I said that.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAYWZcZBht
I sigh and shake my head. This was not the right time to daydream, I made up my mind about us kissing and I don't regret it.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡEb2xxK1xn6
We have to do it.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsOyF5oD2B
I slip my high heels on and grab my purse in my right hand before leaving the room.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXjZvGixxA
Just as I close the door, I hear the soft music playing and people talking. I was suddenly get nervous again but I calm myself down soon enough.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHPPkb9svq
I take my time to get down on the stairs, because I don't want to trip and embarrass myself or Richard.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiwYr5LuRE
With my slow steps, I manage to get down the stairs without falling. I had been looking at my feet the entire time but when I know I have a few more steps to take, I look up and see the people my mother-in-law has invited.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeRELR9JBL
Their face and clothes scream "I am rich". I mentally roll my eyes, of course they are rich.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dcRnZ2GQk
My eyes scan the large room for Richard, but I can't find him. Suddenly I feel uneasy, very uneasy.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGvgLHz0z7
And self-conscious, not because I can't find Richard. Well okay fine, I badly want to find Richard.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLr17EZIjZ
It was actually because every single person in the room was staring at me.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ysaHiJ4Jg
Richard's POV:copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhwePbyETT
I pout for the hundredth time tonight, I feel very bored, about to explode from anger.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFUdmwhvO9
My parents have introduced everyone they've invited to me. As if I don't already know them, I was dying from boredom.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEIOSSNDPY
Where was Kristen when I needed her?!copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrqsHRGL0K
I sigh from frustration and run a hand through my hair.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1C4KRvnGl
What a great night!copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9c1usMnsB
Note the sarcasm.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiiRQncYrf
"Scott! … SCOTT" I yelled for Scoot to hear, he soon ran towards me and asked me what I wanted.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjH0uzq4JQ
"Go to Kristen's fucking room and get her out, I am losing my patience here. Tell her Richard is very bored-"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDH2ELW22P
I exclaim angrily. Scott smiles to himself, but soon recomposes himself.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4L8OQwhSJ
"-it's 7 am for fuck's sake, what is she doing? Putting make up on is not rocket science!"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMeLnrzAyO
"I will go sir" Scoot retreats away from me and to Kristen's room .copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡz07uvhk5B6
Ugh!! What is she doing? I am dying here. This is supposed to be a vacation for us, not a damn party for a bunch of idiots.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡUy5Y20037c
Hellooooo people! I need some time with my wife, can't they understand the true meaning of honeymoon? It's for a couple, I repeat for a couple, and not the entire population of Paris.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡtM11C9GROB
"You're so funny when you're angry Richard" That voice, where have I heard that voice? I turn to the owner of it and smile when I saw Rèmi grinning like the idiot he is.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZN8G9ayTR
I grin back immediately and relax a little, thank god at least one of my close friends is here.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhgp5tQOjt
"What's up man?" He says happily, we shake hands and smile at each other.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZsFJO9ltI
"Rèmi ! What are you doing here?" I ask excitedly. He chuckles and shakes his head.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhPHuVtLBP
"You are a weirdo as always. Your are parents invited me bro"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡeY93JkutvF
"Oh, well. I'm glad you are here"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4AxRJJHsl
"Yeah.. yeah .." Rèmi mumbles "So where is your other half?"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3KD7sQuj2
My what?! My eyebrows pull together in confusion and Rèmi just smiles at my expression.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWmo1j82Si
"My what?!" I ask him with a frown present on my forehead. Rèmi rolls his eyes and mutters something I can't quite hear.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCGHRcO9PF
"Your other half? Your wife? The love of your life? Your heart? Your –"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkY1mP9QpC
"Okay okay I get it"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CoGJO9gxJ
Rèmi chuckles and grins from ear to ear. Still the same goofballcopyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgJATL9VZC
"She is probably upstairs" I mumble, not used to talking about Kristen with others, especially when they think we have a perfect marriage and we are happily living ever after.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9n9XLCcqng
"Oh, so that's why you were shouting at that poor man. That's what love does to you man. You can't get away from her for just a minute ?" He says amusedly, I just shrug , I was very uncomfortable talking about Kristen.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLPZFr20LD
"So who was that girl you were talking to at the restaurant? " I change the subject. Rèmi's expression immediately changes from sadness to beaming.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWqELRCwMA
Guess I am not the only lover in this house.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQKxDoEkf4
"She is just a friend" Rèmi says. The way he said friend made me sure that he is madly in love with that girl, and the way he said that word , it held so much meaning, it was as if he thought that word was a sin , and I didn't blame him, considering the situation I am already: I think of that word the same as him.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4nggH5dPx
"Too afraid to ask her out?" I blurt out. His eyes widen at what I just said, he soon smiles. I guess he realized I have figured him out.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡSy8hvLOyX7
"I am afraid of losing her, even as a friend" He says sadly. Me tooRèmi, me too.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6N71be1B2
I am afraid of losing her!copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡUum176VLeh
I don't wanna lose our friendship, or whatever it is it's called that we have now.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYduoaHBXW
"Anyways, want some drinks?" I suggest playfully. His facial expression changes back to normal and we were laughing our asses out whe Rèmi held a glass with some ice cube, and I brought a bottle of vodka. I was pouring vodka, when I suddenly heard a gasp.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6ErDxnRkE
I look up and frown and notice people staring at the stairs, I blink twice, before finally recognizing the person coming down the stairs.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡt41eJfIAKs
It was Kristen!copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4DM207Vrd
And she was fucking pretty tonight.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡXM01CWHPI0
I can't think of words to describe her beauty, she looks like a princess. She is wearing an elegant black dress and she looks up from her feet and frowns, her eyes scanning the crowd.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡCT9hiNAMmb
"Earth to Richard! You poured the vodka on me, be careful man!" Rèmi exclaims.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdm4lUIgbk
I stare at the glass he's holding in his hand and sure enough, it was full to brim with the excess vodka on Rèmi's suit.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8PQr5TpOG
"You are really wasted Richard" I ignore him and apologize for what I have done. He just chuckles and excuses himself. Guess he's going to clean his suit, which I have ruined.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaOtrwxRV3
I stare at Rèmi 's retreating figure just to distract myself, I'm not ready to stare at her again.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUmilsmX3b
But I know I have to, one way or another, this is our party.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLe9Y3PF15
And god I am screwed.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvYyim4UJ9
I want to vanish, I want to run away in this instant. Call me weak but this is too much to take, I might think I am strong but in the end I am just a human being, and I am in love!copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡykcEEpm1tT
I take a deep breath to calm my nerves. This is not the right time to chicken out. I should man up and walk towards her, And that's what I'm going to do. I walk to where she is standing. She is talking to my mom, I try my best not to check her out.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1KCu811vv
I don't want her to feel uncomfortable, and I am successful. She smiles widely when she sees me walking towards them, and at that moment, I think… for a few seconds she checks me out too.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9Wi7ccfrb
But who am I kidding, it must be my own imagination, because that's my heart wants.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCWgNWFZhg
I want her to want me.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBJfEi0QG5
But it's not that easy, it has never been easy.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1BIh4HE37
I think it's better to be heartbroken than to see Kristen's heart break.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡI86xxsAefj
It's better this way, I can't endure seeing her in pain.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRuqzoReC6
"Hi" I say, my voice doesn't sound like my voice, so I clear my throat and try again.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡroLih6SEYB
"Hi" My mom chuckles and kisses my cheek.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyGIb5CdT3
"I will leave you two lovebirds, have fun!" Mom says and walks away.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQsF8uaf56
I just smile at her, then my eyes betray me and I find myself staring at Kristen, she was smiling at me.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uipAT5sVq
"Hi " She says.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvuiOzz3Ov
"You look breathtaking!" I blurt out, but I didn't regret saying that, my heart felt like it was about to rip, she said thank you and smiled at me.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmHaGiwyoi
She was smiling a lot today, which I think means she is having fun.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOlxXe3uIp
"You don't look bad yourself" She answers after a few seconds, with her hand finger pointing towards me and my tuxedo. She blushes when she realizes what she has just said.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUnHICaCz9
I just chuckle and smile at her.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89cQVv8Iuy
Scott soon invites all of us to the dining room, with me sitting between Rèmi and Kristen.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBHMd9eWJK
We are the only ones who here who are under thirty years old and are laughing and cracking joke.,Rèmi are a very fun person to be around. He makes funny jokes all the time and Kristen was laughing so hard. This was the best night of my entire life.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡIN8ZdAtRkR
"Alright ladies and gentlemen" My father stands up from where he was sitting and was tapping the side of his wine glass with a fork to get everyone's attention.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsKKcr4Yve
The guests soon quieted down and listened to my father.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CMQtn9Z9A
"Today.. we are here to celebrate this young couple's marriage.. Kristen and Richard..I am very happy that my son has finally gotten married to the best girl on the entire planet."copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSvoMVAJOL
"And I am glad that...well just by the look on their faces you can see how much they love each other…I wish them a happy life, and I wish someday I can see little Richards calling me grandpa …"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡffxXYn2uDA
Oh my god, please don't tell me this means they want us to have a baby, Kristen stiffens beside me, this is unforgivable. But remind myself that they don't know what happens between us. I stare at Kristen and I gulp, she is looking down at the table, her hands are on her lap. I reach for her hand and squeeze it, she stares at our interlinked hands with wide eyes .copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡwevmWdoDVd
But she soon relaxes, and smiles sadly at me. I take a deep breath and smile at her. I don't know what else my dad says, because I didn't listen and never let go of Kristen's hand. Even though I promise myself her not to touch her again.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡIU4N8aHGfQ
This is the second time I break my promise.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgaP6qNSyp
"…Cheers!" I hear my dad say, the guests all raise their glass of wines, including us and Rèmi .copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqnpc7DnQQ
"Cheers!"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡhS4UlAHCFf
We were soon in the living room, where soft music was playing and some of the guests were dancing while others were laughing and talking.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡQONGTMH7i6
They were clearly enjoying themselves. I could tell.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWqwcNrgAp
Kristen was talking to some old men, they were managers of the biggest companies in France.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6YXY8jRKu
She seems to really like what they were talking about. I smile to myself, She has always been smart.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTbjz7SjhR
"She is cute"Rèmi comments beside me.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3b1xFBvU2
"Yeah " I mumble, wait- "Why the hell are you spying on me Rèmi Albert!"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIyWg1dCIk
"I am not spying on you Richard Anderson!" He mimics me .copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡelHMlS0Txe
I roll my eyes and shake my head, he is a weirdo yet he doesn't admit it, and he tells me I am the weirdo one.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjcSjJo40G
"Richard?"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0kT6bdcTR
"Yes, Rèmi"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpT2ak3Vfr
"Do you mind if I have a dance with your wife?"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5IW6c9q2W
I stare at Rèmi, He seems to be thinking deeply, and he is dead serious. I am not sure what he is thinking of, I know Rèmi is not like other guys, but by other guys I mean Kyle!copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPpOTcbMYo
But ever since the event I trust no one with her, except for Damon of course.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpuFlewEZs
I sigh and shrug " Why not? "copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMeFTjloNZ
Rèmi grins and walks toward Kristen.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡvR6gPeApP0
"Hey Rèmi ?" I call after him before he is too far away.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkwXcqynx2
"Yeah?"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaHF3VDTif
"I got my eyes on you!"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIlXoAEjSU
He laughs and walks away.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNKeWIuEzJ
That asshole!copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TsGbTs0iX
Kristen seems to be surprised that Rèmi asks to dance, she hesitates and I feel her swallow, I don't blame her.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3puyBf6Jx
She then lays her eyes on me and frowns, as if asking me for permission. I smile and nod at her. Guess she trusts me. She smiles back and grasp Rèmi 's hand.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡE61ajDActw
A slow song is on and Rèmi and Kristen are dancing to the music.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6C5Z89Ryof
I watch every step they take.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71xeKH0vrV
Kristen is magnificent , I love every single thing about her.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3xndTpsYO
Rèmi and Kristen talk and laugh as they dance, I smile when I see them laugh.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡahQa71wvFc
They dance for about five minutes when I suddenly feel like dancing and decide to get my wife back from my friend.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1cVQnul4O
"May I have this dance with my wife please?"I ask Rèmi, he smiles and nods then holds Kristen's hand for me. I take it and put it on my shoulder.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFd193s1oZ
Kristen looks self-conscious but I know it's because people are staring at us. I ignore their glares and concentrate on the beauty in front of me.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KlPtSsz3y
Her hands are around my neck and we dance to the music. I stare at her gorgeous brown eyes, and she stares right back at me.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJbSaQbARu
It's like her eyes are fire, and I am a candle. She lights every part of me on fire.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6azjjmMJ4K
I don't know what happened, and how it happened.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUhoW4Au8I
But I was smiling when I felt Kristen's head rest on my shoulder.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGhc5geMZy
She soon pulls away and stares back at me.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xGkdB9eSq
"Kiss me" She whispers.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡPX9t5g254k
I am shocked when she says that, taken aback. I promised myself not to kiss her. And I am not gonna break that promise.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyaFHkXt7L
"K-Kristen, we can't" Oh god I am stuttering.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3CvSnLamK
"Richard, you do realize that people are staring, and you said you would kiss me"copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEbPaSDDFu
I bite my lips and stare at her, she was frowning, and I am the reason why she is frowning.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6MoV7hk8D
I shake that feeling of guilt away and try to think clearly.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡnV5OESALj7
What should I do?copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdc7LCaSft
Kiss her?copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOUCav0pVF
Or not ?copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86RkYjLOvO
If I kiss her, I don't know if I am ever gonna be able to stop.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NPpJjCXYy
And If I don't, people are watching, so I need to give proof that we are happily married.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiVojqNvtk
"Kiss me" Kristen whispers again, her words send a shiver down my spine.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvI9x9EYEg
I make up my mind and pull her closer to me. Our noses were touching, and there were millions of emotions in Kristen's eyes.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdzHUCIsIj
But I didn't understand any of them.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡgimrpdtSfj
I touch her lips gently with my right hand, she stiffens. And her breathing pace increases.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡsn7nzGE8I0
I lick my lips and gently press my lips on hers, My knees get weak as we kiss and I feel …well what's the word?copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOaMfy86J1
My body was on fire, My palms were sweating , was it hot here?copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfpAaXjllj
OH MY GOD! I feel fucking amazing.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡoN7bcxMHct
There were waves of electricity travelling through my body from my lips which were pressed on her lips to my toes, I am afraid I won't be able to stop.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLhL57XPm8
And I don't, I kiss her and kiss her.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡPS40CjuFV2
And surprisingly Kristen kisses me back.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKdMSTvYq1
This kiss was very different from my other kisses.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡHu2WP81quw
It was very gentle.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡNR5eir1hZT
Romantic.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxW3YOK65C
Passionate.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1lD6Lbugx
I show all my love in that kiss, if she notices then I am done.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLDJN0FaBV
I put all my feelings and my emotions in that kiss.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1oXIYnxMN

Love and anger, that's what I feel in the kiss.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡZt2KRaMU10
But I ignore it.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOj3fdQjsV
It's just a kiss right?!copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOdImfNEOW
No harm done.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡShk61ijgJo
Yes it's weird, I feel confused yet happy. Ughh I feel something else when Richard kisses me.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2kgNjANCh
I just don't know what is it.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCKNBqjKtm
I know this was wrong, I had a boyfriend and I was cheating on him.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqtFHF3xtn
But it felt so right, I didn't regret and I didn't feel guilty.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMezHfrBSD
I kiss Richard back.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyUXdeMoCT
It feels like no one is watching us, it was just the two of us, kissing.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVFduwTkej
I feel thousands of butterflies in my stomach.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMarZ03m8a
"What a romantic kiss!" That voice was so familiar, I wasn't the one who broke the kiss though.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2z2POTX67O
Richard pulls away gasping for air.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlhr4IBWM6
Or I thought he was gasping for air, but boy I was wrong.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡtg7T3yszuS
I turn around to look at the owner of the voice.copyright protection370ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7WXiAh21B
