'I don't like to doze by the fire, I like adventures and I am going to find some.'
-jo March
The whole week it's so tortuous, am not even afraid to admit how moody I am,
Getting through the whole week days was torturous that at one point I was speaking with Samantha i almost told her to forget what I said and come back to me.
I know i refused her to work in this time because i know they are approaching the end of the semester and approaching the exams and I would hate for her to fail because she is busy working here or because am pushing her to spend much more time with me.
I think it's only right that I hold back on some things and let them solve themself out.
Samantha is young and I don't want to make her feel like am making her do things she doesn't want to.
I miss her a lot but am going to be patient maybe until she finishes the exams to tell her to meet again.
I would loved it if she was to make a miracle and come to me but as I said, I know that to happen is for it to only be a miracle.
I went through the first week, miserably than you would imagine that I don't want to think how I still got two others to go but am a man.
A man who will have to stand on his words and patiently wait for his girlfriend.
I've learned to use my muscles, body and heart to try and keep them busy with the pressures from the sport than ever so they don't get to thinking of my Samantha.
I finish the morning sport and walk back to my suite, the routine now feels much more robotically than it ever did before.
Now the life is sport, work, books and in bed.
I open the door and get in but I stop walking midway when I see the last person I thought to see today.
"Samantha?" I say still not believing it's her or just it's my desiring mind playing tricks on me.
I've desired to get a glimpse of her, I have wished to have her in front of me magically even for just a second for the past seven days that seeing her feels like it's my mind finally losing it.
"The one and only you've heard of," she says getting on her feet with a smile on her lips but I still can't believe it.
I blink my eyes for seconds and open it to see if am imagining her but she is now in front of me.
I wanted to see if I was to open my eyes and she would be nowhere to be found but she is now close to me that I can smell her ravishing sweet intoxicating smell of petals and roses.
I move one hand to her cheek and the other to her waist to pull her closer. She smiles at me before she gets on her toes and kisses me softly and innocently on the lips.
"Uhm, I have missed you so much Kai." She says and it's after the kiss that I know I have her.
I bring her lips back to mine and pour all my feelings, all my desires to her, all the missing, all the craving, all the craziness I felt while missing her into the kiss.
I devour her mouth devilishly that when we pull away, her soft pink lips are swollen.
"I missed you so much baby, to the point It almost drove me insanely crazy to not seeing you." I say and she smiles.
"Why didn't you tell me?" She asks and I sigh.
"I would have loved too," I chuckle at myself as I take a moment before saying. "You can't believe how many times I wanted to call to tell you to throw all the things I said out of the window and find some place to meet me?" I say and it's after I have said that that I realize how I don't sound me.
It can't be me because I can't be the same guy that had other opinions a few minutes ago.
"You did?" She asks looking surprised but at the same happy at my words.
I nod my head because even though I wanted to fool myself, I know pretty well that the second week I would have to do just that.
"I told you that day, it was bullshit. Kai I can take care of myself, I know am young but I know what's to be put first and when too." She says and I smile as I tighten my arms around her waist and push her backwards slowly.
"Uhm, and what is that?" I ask as I push her backwards into the suite until we reach the couch.
"At the moment it's you to be put first." She says and I smile as I lay her carefully on the couch with me as I lay on top of her but holding my weight with my one arm beside her and one leg on the floor.
"You are getting better at this." I say as I lean in closer to her lips and move mine at the top of hers teasingly.
"Well, am learning from the best technically."
"You think so?" I ask and she nods with my lips still teasing hers, she moves hers to reach mine but I pull mine away.
I am loving the desiring look in her eyes, maybe having her like this isn't that bad at all.
I lean in and kiss her on the left cheek and then the right.
"I will take a shower?" I say to her and it's like i have lightened a bulb in a dark room.
She growls inwardly and then starts pulling me away. "Oh my God, yes, you are sweaty and you leaking your sweaty on my hundred dollar perfume." She says and I smile.
"Oh, I am sorry for that, your highness." I say getting off top of her.
I walk around and make my way to my room but before I reach the door she says.
"Oh my God, you should be." She looks pleased with saying that and I smile.
"But with all seriousness I am sorry." I say to her but she waves it off with a wave.
Seeing her took me in the moment that I forget all the sweat that I had.
"It's no problem, so what are we doing after you have your shower?" She asks and i shrug my shoulders at her with a smile, I reply.
"That will be your assignment darling as I shower." I say to her and she whines.
"No, babe." She calls me that and it brings a foolishly grin on my face.
"But what's up with you today?" I ask as I walk back to her and she puffs her eyes and stares at me knowingly while widening them cutely.
"What? Am I cute than never?"
"Cute doesn't justify it, you are freely and sappy than never." I say as I get a hold of her chin in my hand.
"It's the influence of all the torture I went through while missing you, don't ever do me like that again." I smile because honestly am loving this side of her.
"We will see but unfortunately for you, am loving what this influence is bringing out in you so far." She pushes me away with a frown on her face.
"Bad boy, am not cooperating if you try it again for you information." She holds her arms closed to her chest with a frown and it just makes her look cute than ever.
I just shake my head with a grin on my face.'like I would want it myself?'
I move forward and kiss her on the forehead. "I will shower quickly and come back. Better be having the plan of today because am doing whatever you want me to do today darling." I say and that removes the frown from her pretty face and replaces it by a smile.
"Oh, i was hoping you would say that. Now go shower."
She says and I find myself frowning while wondering what she means by that but today am going to let her do me and do whatever she wants with me.
I don't obligate, I just get in my room and take one that will add to the list of some other quickest showers that I have took in my whole and get dressed before I walk back out to the living room.
Samantha is standing beside the floor to ceiling window that she loves to stand by at every time she is here but she turns to look at me when she heard me walk into the room.
"Babe, I almost came in there to drag your ass out, what were you doing in there? Making yourself up to look good for me?" She asks and I grin.
"What? Would you prefer me better for you with makeup?" She walks closer to me and I pull her much closer as I hold my arm over her shoulder.
She sneaks hers to my waist while she taps the other hand to my chest as she says. "We will have to glam you up to see what better kai looks like."
"Whatever you want baby." I say and she brings her face to the side to look at mine.
"Really?" She asks.
"You would really let me makeup your face?" She asks and I look down at her.
"You said it yourself, we will see."
Her face falls a little as she replies.
"Oh my God, sometimes you play mind tricks on me, but guess what now it's my time." She says and walks us out to the lobby.
She is still in my arm and the feeling feels much better than I thought.
She doesn't allow me to use any of my cars, she leads me to hers and when I fight with her to drive. She doesn't put on a little fight for me to win.
But I finally cave in and let her drive us.
"I can't believe you would want to deprive me of the pleasures of driving, kai I love driving cars especially those that looks like yours." She says sending a wink at me and I grin.
"Forgive me your highness, I didn't realize driving was one of the things you adored."
I say and she dramatically replies.
"Oh Charles, next time please do learn of my interest so we don't have to meet with another inconvenient like that one again." She says and I chuckle.
"Charles, really?" I ask and she shrugs her shoulders as she turns to smile at me for seconds before turning her attention back on the road.
"Feels like the name that can't be missed in the palace to me." She says truthfully like she is so sure of her sayings.
"You don't trust me?" She asks when I don't say anything back and I shake my head to her in reply.
"Poor you, we got not access to any of those but I would have loved to proved you wrong, what about movies about palace and royalties?" I just nod my head and let her have it and keep the conversation light and fun as she drives me to the same airport I drove her too last weekend.
"Are we heading at OO's?" I ask as we are getting out of the car.
"Well, i was hoping you would pretend to ask that when we got there at least to not ruin my effort of the surprise but hey, whatever." She says but she looks nothing of being offended. But I still reply.
"Consider me ignorant. Samantha where are heading?" I ask pretending to look around and she smiles as she says.
"Come, you will see."
She takes my big hand in her small one and pulls me to the helicopter waiting to take us there.
It's the same pilot that took us the last time.
We have a small greeting before he takes off and takes us to the one and only gorilla's nest.
I loved the place a lot since I've came here the first time with my boys but never once I considered it to make it my gateway place, but with Samantha it feels right.
The place has all kinds of feeling to it, it can be a home, it can be relaxing place, it can be a picnic place, it has a sense of making you feel like it can be anything you want it to be. So Samantha loving it too makes me feel good about doing what I did.
We land and she pulls me like she is been here a million times and not just once.
We have a quick breakfast before we are interrupted by Grace.
"Good morning Mr Royal, good morning Miss Adams." Samantha turns to her beaming happily to have gotten her presence.
"Good morning Grace." She replies and Grace nods with a smile on her face.
"Everything is set and in order like you requested Miss Adams." She says and I frown.
I turn to Samantha and ask.
"Are there other surprises?" I ask and she smiles knowingly at me.
"Well, you quite haven't seen anything yet." She says and claps her hands before getting on her feet.
"Is the car ready?" She asks grace and she nods before replying back.
"Yes ma'am."
"Grace." She calls whiningly and I can roughly guess what is coming.
"Grace, am younger than you but why do you keep addressing me as ma'am. You know my three names already, at least if calling me the first two is impossible. I wasn't complaining with Miss Adams."
"Am sorry ma'- Miss Adams, and yes the car is ready, Miss Adams."
She smiles at her before passing her a thumbs up.
"Great. Time to roll babe." She says and brings her hands in front of me for me to take and get on my feet.
Which I do, well I wasn't done with breakfast yet because it's not like we had the time to put a little in our belly and I doubt she had something too.
But the energetic and exciting smile on her face, it's not something am about to interrupt.
Whatever she is taking me, I will make sure we have an early lunch because I can't have her missing any meals a day.
We get on our feet and we follow Grace as she leads us to a picnic car waiting there is two men waiting for us.
We make a stop beside them and Grace stops too and turns to introduce us.
"This is Theo, the driver for you guys and that is Liam your tour guider."
We shake hands with them.
"Nice meeting you," i say to Liam and turn to say the same to Theo.
Samantha is doing the same and after we are done, we pull back and Grace says.
"They can take off as soon as you are ready to go."
Samantha cheers clapping excitedly.
"Oh we are ready, let's go guys." She walks to get in the car and I want to rush to get there first and have the door for her but Theo beats me to it.
I walk to the other side and he comes to get it for me too.
He walks back to driver's side and starts the car and takes us to God knows where.
It doesn't take me wrong to realize where we are heading at.
We are one in one of the mountains where I know the gorillas are found, I realize it's true when we reach there exactly.
It isn't my first time coming up here but coming with Samantha feels like a first time.
She asks a lot of questing to the tour guider and the animal keeper that I remember some answers too.
Seeing her meet the gorillas with so much adorably, love and care after she is learnt about them touches my heart.
She spends time with them that she doesn't let me pull her away for lunch even for a minute.
It gets even worse when it's time to leave but she doesn't allow me to take her away.
She is met a young female gorilla called Gwiza and they have bonded the whole afternoon that the young gorilla doesn't want to let her go and so neither her.
Me and the animal keeper have to work really hard on having to separate them, I have to promise her we will be coming back tomorrow to see the young gorilla to finally have her cave in.
They get separated but the young gorilla brings her saddened feelings out and growls around angry before she takes off to her mother.
Samantha stays behind crying at what just happened.
I walk to her and pull her close to my chest as I hold her closely.
"Please don't cry baby. Darling stop." She sobs on my chest and I don't even like the second of her crying for even a bit.
She is been happy enjoying herself with the bonding time she was having with the gorillas and the plays they had that I also enjoyed staring at her the whole day.
She has a big and giving heart, I guess she weren't joking when she told me she was an animal person.
I hold her head in my hands and raise her head to look at me.
"Please stop crying darling, I promised we will come back tomorrow." Saying that to her does nothing instead of making her cry even more.
It wrenches my heart to see the tears on her cheeks. It's the first thing I don't want to relive with her or ever bring in her life.
I wipe the tears away with my thumbs and when she doesn't stop.
I pull her up to me and kiss her a full mouthed kiss wanting to kiss her pain away and take her sorrows away.
It seems to work and have her to stop crying.
I pull away a little only to move my lips with hers and take my tongue inside her mouth and dance it in there with hers.
It calms her down that when we pull away to catch some breath.
She rests her hand on my one cheek as she says.
"I want to come back and meet Gwiza tomorrow." I nod my head.
"I will make it happen." I say back to her and I mean it.
We get back to the villa so late, when the sun has already set.
We walk in quietly because I could feel Samantha's mood had gone a one hundred eighty turn.
I walk her to the living room and sit her down on the sofa in there.
"I will order some quick dinner and request for the helicopter to take us back in the city." She holds my hand back when I turn to make the call.
"No, order for food but the helicopter don't bother, I want to stay the night with you." The words are those type of words you don't believe when you hear them at first and that is why I ask.
"What?"
