After selecting the dress, Zaid and Ziya walked towards the car. As they got
inside, Zaid pulled Ziya onto his lap.
Ziya: "Zaid," she said softly.
Zaid: "Shh. Just stay here for a while."
Ziya nodded her head and sat quietly while looking outside from the window. Zaid rested his chin on Ziya's neck, taking deep breaths. Every breath of Zaid touched Ziya's neck, making her shiver. Once they reached the resort, Zaid picked Ziya up like a koala and walked inside. Ziya stayed silent in Zaid's arms while the driver picked every bag from the car and placed them into the main hall.
Zaid took Ziya into one of the rooms and gently placed her on the bed. He removed Ziya's cute white shoes and placed them down. He removed his own jacket and walked near Ziya. Zaid grabbed Ziya's soft feet in his not-so-soft hands and kissed them gently while looking at Ziya, who closed her eyes at the touch.
Zaid: "Open your eyes, love," he said softly in his deep voice.
Ziya slowly opened her doe watery eyes, making them more beautiful, and looked at Zaid.
Zaid: "I love you. I love you so much. This love of yours is making me crazy, Ziya." He put his head on Ziya's feet while taking deep breaths. "I am so crazy for you. You don't even have an idea how much your every single thing makes me desperate."
Ziya was looking at Zaid silently; she didn't know how to respond. Her doe eyes were getting teary from what emotions she couldn't tell—maybe overwhelmed, maybe happiness, maybe love, maybe Zaid's desperation for her.
Ziya: "Zaid..." she said with a shaky breath.
Zaid didn't look up; his head was still in Ziya's feet, on which he was still giving soft kisses.
Ziya: "I am yours, Zaid. I am only yours. Please don't be like this," she said with so much difficulty, hiccupping and sobbing.
Zaid looked up to see Ziya. He walked towards her and kissed her on the forehead.
Zaid: "I am sorry, love," he said softly.
Ziya hummed softly while taking hiccups. Zaid looked at the crying girl and sighed.
Zaid: "You can't even take it when I express my love with words. How will you take it when I express it physically, dove?" he said in a teasing tone.
Ziya punched his chest with her small fist. Zaid lay besides her, taking Ziya in his embrace.
Zaid: "I love you," he said softly in his deep voice.
Ziya: "I love you too," she said in a slow voice.
Zaid looked down at his chest where his dove was snuggling him.
Zaid: "You are beautiful," he said softly.
Ziya looked up with her doe eyes.
Ziya: "Am I?" she asked in a soft voice.
Zaid tightened his arms around Ziya.
Zaid: "So much that I don't want anyone to see you. So much that I want to cage you in my arms like this forever, till I die."
Ziya kissed Zaid, making his mouth shut. Zaid kissed her back passionately, sucking Ziya's lips harshly. The mole underneath Ziya's lips got covered in saliva. After a few seconds, when Zaid left Ziya,
Ziya: "You want to leave me?" she asked while taking deep breaths.
Zaid: "Never," he said while hugging her tightly.
Ziya: "Then don't say this word again," she said softly.
Zaid: "Hummed."
After a few minutes of peaceful silence,
Zaid: "Everything is prepared, baby. So, are you ready to become mine tomorrow?" he asked in a slow but deep voice.
Ziya: "Hmm."
Ziya: "I am ready for the marriage, Zaid." Zaid kissed Ziya's lips softly.
Zaid: "I am excited," he said in a soft voice.
Ziya: "Me too," she said while making circles on Z's shirt.
