'I quickly reach up to him with the moon as our witness and peck his lips.'
"Good morning baby," I say running out of the kitchen at Kai when I see him walking down the stairs all dressed up for a workout.
"Hey." He smiles when I reach at him pulls me closer to his chest and crashes his lips on mine.
He pulls back and smiles down at me.
"Good morning." He says pecking my lips again.
I smile when he pulls back.
"You are up early?" I nod my head.
"Yeah I don't think I have told you, I am pulling my examination day forward because am no longer starting college in winter but this summer."
"Why is that?" I smile bringing my hands up behind his neck.
"It was a surprise for me too, remember Lucas right?" I saw his jaw clench. "What about him?" I smile big, God I think I will reach the end of the day with my cheeks hurting from all the smiling but I would take such a pain any day.
"He was admitted here at UCLA and he is starting this summer?" He frowned at my words.
"You are not happy about it?"
"No, I just did not realize you pushed it forward for him, I mean Samantha you know this may affect your grades?" I shrug my shoulders at his words.
"High school is easy Kai, I got this okay? I just was happy to hear the news, he will be coming with Leila too can you believe it?" He looks down and shrugs.
I can not believe he is not a little tiny excited for them as I am. Since Leila broke the news to me I have been going crazy, what were the chances of us getting together again?
"As long as you are happy darling, I am satisfied." He leans in and steals another kiss but I will give him whatever kisses he would like to steal from me.
He pulls back and lets go of my waist. "Just be careful to not fail and mess up your normal grades because if you do I am sorry but I will have to make you retake." I scowl at him. "You are not serious, Kai I was already admitted to college already, it doesn't even matter."
"Please, it matters to me, everything around you matters for me, do not make it sound like it's simple or nothing because your future, your grades, even your breath you take in and take out matters to me Samantha. Do not ever disregard anything regarding you because they matter and am always going to fight for what's best for you."
I look at him wanting to decide if this should be another fight or a little argument but I stop myself when my thoughts start wandering there.
Why should I condemn someone who is only caring for me?
I shrug. "Okay, rest assured because I was not planning to fail anyway, okay?"
He smiles. "That would be better." I nod. "Okay then be happy with me about my friends who would be joining me here in a few weeks. Am so excited that I started canceling days till they will get here." He smiles and grows. "I can tell you are." I nod, I have been dying inwardly not sharing my happiness with everyone around me ever since I got the news from Leila about their coming but now I feel good that I can finally share it with Kai.
"So why are you up earlier? I think you did not answer me?" I frown remembering that I am making breakfast.
"Shoot, I forgot I was making you breakfast. Oh, and to answer your question I will be studying earlier and end up studying so late due to the pushed-forward exams hence why I never answered your calls last night."
"Do I have to hire another helper?"
I quickly shake my head.
"No Angel is fine and I got it, just go and add up to those muscles." He laughs and when I turn to walk back in the kitchen he pulls me back by the arm.
"Don't you think you are forgetting something?" He pulls me back closer to him and crashes his lips alongside mine again in a dirty teasing kiss.
I smile when we pull away.
"Have a good time working out."
"I miss coaching you."
"You will get back the honors soon," I say back to him with a teasing smile.
We separate and I go to finish making breakfast and then have a quick one myself.
By 7:30 Tiffany is with me and we are going at it again.
Angel comes over suddenly to help with the cleaning and cooking because studying goes so tense that we even take the weekends of those two weeks that I only have left.
Every time I see the work Tiffany is putting in for me makes me appreciate and like her even more, I know she didn't have to suffer with me during my studies given am even the one who called for it but she did without a complaint.
Things between me and Kai are back to normal though I rarely get to see him because if am not already in books then am taking naps before I wake to go back to studying.
I suddenly find myself thinking about how Kai might be taking it but he assures me that he doesn't mind when I ask him if my studying too much bothers him or makes him feel neglected somehow.
These two weeks are so tense that on some level I feel like pulling the hairs off of my head knowing it's Leila and Lucas on the other end.
I keep my sufferings knowing they are guaranteed.
I mean things we do for our friends?
On the last day of the exam, I wanted to surprise Kai at his office but he called me telling me to get ready and wear nicely because he would be taking me somewhere special to celebrate the end of high school.
That settling feels quite right with even better if you asked me.
I go home and find everything cleaned, my God am a high school graduate. I know I won't be attending any graduation party but college graduation it's there to fill the gap.
It's still early to get ready because Kai told me he would pick me up at seven and it was still four in the afternoon.
I tried to fly time by watching a movie but my excitement would not let me.
So I decided to use the time fueling my body in the gym and seems to help.
I wrap up at five something and go up to mine and Kai's room to get ready.
I take my time in the shower I even end up shaving my legs and every part of me that requires a haircut.
Am on a full spirit feeling, that when I finish I go and sit in front of my makeup table and do my makeup.
Tonight is on archiving an adult look, so I apply mixed foundations and conceals on my face before I decide to wear the same nude red lipstick I wore the very first time I met Kai wearing, I apply red eye shadow and white eyeliner because I have realized they make my eyes bigger and pop out giving me an adult gorgeous vibe that I want.
On the corners of my eyes, I put on small red pearls on each of my eyes.
Oh my God by the end of my look, I also can't recognize myself I know Kai will be bummed either way. I hope he loves it as much as I do.
With that thought in my mind, I stand up amusedly to go pick out what to wear and I end up with a small Fashion Nova red dress.
Oh my God, tonight am so Mrs Red but I don't mind.
The dress is short only reaching mid-thighs with smooth soft skin, it's a long-sleeved dress that has my back open and covering just below my ass and hugs my body nicely lightning my curves perfectly, there is always nothing to boast a woman's confidence like fine clothing on her body, for example like fashion Nova's clothes, they do it for me.
I end my look with beige heels and by the end of my look, I realize, I should do this more often.
I feel good, sexy, and grown up, I need to dress up more often if not for me but for Kai.
I walk back to the makeup table to put on jewels and to retrieve my phone to text Kai, only to realize he texted me about eight minutes ago.
Kai.
Downstairs waiting for you darling,
Whenever you are ready.
I swear my heart jumps out of its place, whenever I am ready. Gosh.
I stop myself from grinning like I am even though I fail miserably.
I quickly grab a purse and throw necessities I will be needing and my phone, I spray perfumes on my body to smell as ravishing as I look before I walk in closer and retrieve a beige purse to pass with my heels and walk out of the room to meet Kai.
I find him waiting at the end of the stairs, he is busy on his phone but when he hears my heels clicking on the floor he pulls away from his phone and stares at me.
I hold his gaze and offer him a huge smile before I start descending the stairs to him.
Before I get to him, I twirl in front of him giving him the full view of me.
He shakes his head and blinks. "Wow." I smile feeling proud of the disbelief look on his face.
"You look so breathtaking darling, I love everything you wore, from the make-up, dress, shoes, and hair. Give me another turn sweetheart." I laugh but stop as he holds my hand and turns me in front of him.
I feel so good having this reaction from him. He pulls me closer to his chest and breathes me in.
"I feel like I...I want to cancel everything and take you back upstairs to devour your little tight entrance mercilessly with every fiber of my being but unfortunately, I have other plans for us. What do you prefer?" His words take the breath out of my lungs. What? Does he want to kill me? He pulls me back a little to learn of my answer.
I hold his cheek before I smile up at him. "Tempting but no, I did not dress up for nothing but maybe when we come back. I could consider your offer." He leans in to kiss me slowly and so tenderly like his lips are in search of something.
But I give him all I have to give in the kiss before we withdraw.
"I love you so much, Samantha." My heart swells as I remove lipstick from his lips. "Now you are making me want to change the decision I just took a minute ago."
He chuckles, causing his chest to vibrate within me. "No, don't. We can't let the night go to waste when there is so much to do. We should even be hitting the road, let's go." He leans down to kiss my cheek before he reaches for my hand and starts leading me out of the house.
We reach outside and stop him from walking further.
"I think I forgot something," I say.
"What?" He asks turning to me. I quickly reach up to him with the moon as our witness and peck his lips.
"I love you too, Mr Royal." I pull back and smile at him, he smiles down at me before he pulls me closer to his chest as we walk to his car.
