" Are you placing the blame on me when all I did was voice out the truth. You really don't know how to be thankful." He snorted, rolled his eyes at her.
_ 'Did he roll his eyes at me?' _
As if he read her thoughts, he said, " And here you are, trying to commit suicide and you still have the gut to say you are fine. Look at you crying right now." He bowed slightly as he opened the glove compartment, retrieving a bottle of mineral water and passed it on to her.
" Here, this shall help. Next time don't bathe in a bucket of such chemicals. It is very harmful unless you want some health complications." He lectured her like an adult reprimanding his kindergarten kid.
" Alright alright, I understand Your Majesty King Jade, and thank you for considering this humble soul. I shall take your advice seriously, now let's get going or we are to be late. " She gave his thigh a pat as he was standing closer to her.
Jade shook his head helplessly as he closed the door and went to the driver's side. He hopped on, buckling his seat belt. Immediately he started the engine. He glanced at her without saying anything which made her uncomfortable and confused.
" What? Why would you stare at me like I somehow committed a crime. That's scary." Phoenix fidgeted on her seat. Her eyes moved about in every direction.
One, two, three... twelve
Twelve seconds flew by but Jade didn't shift his gaze from her face.
She looked back at him, tilting her head to the left and raised her eyebrows in a comical manner. Seeing that Jade had no intention to look away, she resorted to smiling. Of course it would turn out to be ugly given that she was like a rabbit in a lion's den.
" Keep on staring if you want me to kiss you." She blurted out, leaning forward. Unexpectedly, Jade leaned forward too. Their lips crushed. They stayed like that for a moment before Jade took the initiative and started moving his lips.
They were soft and silky as they pressed against Phoenix's. She could feel a ticklish sensation of his breath beneath her nose. He raised his left hand as he tangled his fingers and played with her hair as their breathe overlapped. They both shut their eyes as they got carried away by the beautiful feeling surging through their bodies.
The smell of her feminine perfume and the scent of her shampoo was making Jade dizzy. Warmth enveloped him as he leaned and delved deeper into the kiss. Phoenix's lips which tasted like buttermilk were impossibly soft against his own. Jade's right hand wasn't idle either as he undid his seat belt and started fondling with her breasts.
Phoenix could feel warmth build up within her chest as Jade leaned much closer. Their lips brushing against each other alternating between sucking, biting and pecking. This was their second time but Phoenix still felt butterflies tickling her insides.
