We reached the hospital in no time and I helped him up to the consultation room where he got looked after for the treatment. Since he didn't have anyone with him I stayed back because when I asked him about calling anyone from his family he didn't say anything and just told me he would manage alone.
His injuries seemed worse than they were and he can be discharged after a night into the observation. I offered to stay but he refused to allow me to stay. So I bid him goodbye and went out of the ward.
I pitied him because I can relate with him somehow. I have always been alone on every important occasion of my life. It has been me, against everyone else. It had been so long, that I have learnt to rely only on myself.
I craned my neck to the side , massaging it while waiting for the elevator to arrive.
I was lost in my thoughts that I didn't realise that it did until the clearing of throat got me to snap out of it and I looked up as I moved inside and stopped instantly. The doors closed behind me. But I stood staring at the man in front of me.
Wearing a black buisness coat with a white shirt inside and sleek black suit pant , got me to take a big gulp of air as I felt the elevator quite small.
I stepped aside and turned facing the elevator doors. I try to avoid him and his scorching gaze to ignore him but it is impossible to ignore the magnanimity of this man. Just to take my mind off him I glided my hand across my neck, pressing the knots away when I felt his eerie presence looming over me.
I looked sideways and then glided my eyes up to meet his deep brown eyes looking at me with such intensity that I felt a tremor shoot straight down to my core.
I gulped and straightened my neck , which was still tilted to the side and I felt his eyes caressing my face. I felt my surroundings growing more hot, iff that was even possible.
He opened his mouth to say something but a ding sounded and the elevator doors opened and a couple got inside talking joyously about something.
Since they were so excited and not being quite , I couldn't help but overhear things and a blush bloomed on my face hearing their conversation.
Their conversation went a little like....
The guy said holding the women's hand in his , "Baby , I couldn't wait anymore. Tonight we have got to try it. We have waited so long before this test result came through. The waiting nearly killed me. I have dreamed of this moment and the way you would react to it. I knew it would be the best I have had in my life." He exclaimed , excitement pouring from his words.
"I can't wait too. I have been feeling anxious this entire time but knowing it's you I am more than relieved. We can finally be a couple more than in name. " She replied back to him.
And they acted all goofy around each other. I couldn't help feeling a flush covering my face as I finally realised the meaning of their conversation.
I looked at Si Yihan from the corner of my eyes and saw him already looking at me. I flicked my gaze back to the front as I felt there was a meaning in his gaze which I should probably not dwell over.
The elevator arrived at ground floor with a ding and the couple hurried out of it, as if their house is on fire . But knowing the reason behind it I know it is more than that on fire. I would bet my survival skills that it is more like, they themselves are on fire.
Taking my cue , I scurry out as well knowing my being may get burned as well if I don't hurry along. But my clumsy self got the best of me as my shrug got stuck on the latch outside just around the corner of the elevator.
With shaking fingers I try to unhook it but it only got knot harder around it.
A long finger slid over and ever with so much grace uncoiled the knot and held the part in his hands. I refused to look at him , as he moved the hand towards me to take it. He could have easily dropped it but I know he wouldn't because this is his way of making me submit.
He is wanting me to look at his eyes which I know I won't be able to bare looking at. So while still casting me eyes down I took it from his hand and mumbled a small , "Thank you". The brief contact with his hand send electricity shooting through me.
I shivered at the contact and I knew he saw it as a small smirk pulled up on his face. I didn't dare look more upwards than that because I know I won't be able to ignore it and I might do something which may very well doom me.
So I nodded and turned around to move along when a strong grip clasped around my elbow and he jolted me back to him, my back to his front. I can feel the entire length of him , my body in tune with his every move.
I felt him gazing at me from his height and running his eyes along every corner of my body making me feel almost naked to his eyes. I stood still , not able to move an inch as my legs felt jell-o and too disoriented to do anything than to stay still.
So I just stood at his mercy waiting for him to do something. Anything because this tension is killing me , making me a wreck from inside.
Thank God that we are not in the visibility of anyone. Atleast that's the relief because I would have died of shame had anyone else seen us. Though we are not doing anything , but this grazing and holding and all that I am feeling is so much more intimate to me than anything else.
We stood still just around the elevator , partially hidden by the building pillar and by the obscured wall from the other side.
A second later , I felt his soft lips on my shoulder. And then another on the side , at the curve of my neck.
I stopped breathing for a second as the feel of his lips on my skin got me biting down on my lips hard to stop a moan from falling out of my lips.
