Chapter 12 - My Secret Keeper

Jen

I was recalled the things just happened. It made my stomach ticklish. I closed my face with blanket. Soon I heard my phone ring. Oh dear I left phone in my room and I didn't realise it at all. I uncover my blanket and take my phone to check the caller. Bella's name appeared on my phone screen. I answered the call immediately remembering that we supposed to have a conversation tonight but I totally forgot that. Once I answered the call I herd her saying,"Girl where have you been all this long. I was looking for you for hours. Finally Thressa said that you followed Marion to his apartment. Don't tell me that you put your phone in silent mode. I have been calling you every 15 minutes." "I left the phone in my room Bella. I'm sorry, I didn't know that Ms Melinda will come up with this thing. Why don't you just come to my room", I said. Then, we hung up the phone. After awhile she came in my room and looked at me suspiciously and asked "You just came back?". I nodded my head with a smile. She open her eyes widely with a smile and said, " Tell me everything girl. I'm listening.. Come on, what's going on between both of you". I hold her hands nervously and said "I like him Bella. I don't know how it happened but I'm very sure he is the one. We started a small conversation, we had dinner together in his apartment, he hugged me and kissed my neck in his kitchen, he gave me good night kisses with hugs and we made out in my room. It just happened!". She was very surprised when she heard this. "That's unbelievable! You guys are flirting with each other but I want him to say those three words to you because I can see how important this thing to you. I hope he can protect you from the media people. You have to be very careful Jen. You're still a student and it will effect your studies. I'm really happy for you. I mean it but don't get yourself into the trouble. Let him say the three words I first. I know Marion is a nice man and I have never seen him flirting around with other females but he will have girl fans who will stalk him and flirt with him when they get his autographs. You have to handle the situation maturely. Trust plays a big role in here. I believe that you can handle it. I always will be here for you," she said while holding my hands tightly. I felt so relieved after talking to Bella. We hugged and I thanked her for keeping my secret with her. "Marion said he asked me to meet him every night before I go to bed because he wants to see my face before the day ends," I said happily. "He's such a Romeo," said Bella and we chuckled happily while tickling each other. It's 1am at the midnight and we decided to end our conversation and go to bed. I said good night to her and walked her until my bedroom entrance and wait for her to leave. Once she left, I closed the door and take my pyjamas to the bathroom to change. I take off my uniform and changed to pyjamas. I saw myself in the mirror for a long time with a smile. My eyes moved towards my lips and I get so nervous when I noticed my side lips are slightly bleeding because of Marion's wild kiss. I washed my lips with cold water and put some vaseline. I don't have any other cream in my bag. So I was hoping that my lips won't be so obvious. After awhile I realised that Bella must have noticed my lips. I felt so embarrassed at that moment knowing thaf she will know how wildly we kissed each other. I run to my bed, hopped and tugged myself under the blanket. My brain started to play tricks. I started to think some crazy stuff like how if his lips are bleeding too. How if he tease me the way I kissed him. I got so nervous to face him. My eyelids slowly get weaker and weaker until I fell asleep.
