CHAPTER FOUR | CAUGHT KISS HANDED
ARTHUR
When our lips connect, I feel a tingle on my lips before it spreads all over my body, even to my tippy toes. My whole body feels electrified, like I touched a naked wire.
I never thought it was humanly possible for a person's heart to almost burst out of his chest but the crazy way my heart is beating cleared my doubts.
My heart feels like it's fighting to come out of my chest. I don't feel butterflies in my stomach like they say in movies because a whole zoo erupts in my stomach and the animals are all hungry…hungry for Luca Redington. Begging me to let them out so they could ravish him.
My whole body is shaking, both in excitement and fear. The adrenaline rush from the kiss almost driving me mad with need.
Luca freezes, his whole body tensing up. He doesn't kiss back but doesn't push me away either.
The fact that he doesn't push me away or try to stop me encourages me and I proceed by biting his lips softly.
Kissing his lips feels like having a taste of heaven. His mouth feels so soft and full. His lips feel divine against my mouth, even though they aren't moving with mine. Kissing Luca's lips reminds me of the fact that there are perfectly glorious things in this world and not only have I seen one, I've also tasted it too.
If I am to die now, I'll definitely die a happy man knowing that my lips have touched Luca's.
I feel complete while kissing him. Everything about our kiss feels right. He feels like home, my home.
A contented sigh leaves my lips before I try to deepen the kiss.
His lips taste like strawberry, the same strawberry lip gloss Ciara always carries with her. The taste of my sister's gloss on his lips snaps me out of whatever sugar rush I was in.
Jerking my head away from him, I blush beetroot red, avoiding the eyes of the boy I just molested with my lips at all cost. "Sorry…I didn't…I don't didn't know what I was thinking." I stutter, hastily turning around so I could go wallow in shame and rejection within the comfort of my bed.
"Arthur," Luca's voice rasp out, calling my name for the first time in his life.
The hotness of my name in his mouth stops me in my tracks and it took a whole lot of self fucking control for me not to run back and kiss him harder than I did before.
"Yes?" I look over my shoulder at him, expecting the worse to drop out from his mouth.
Before I can blink, he takes long strides across my overly spacious bedroom until he is at my back.
I look forward, still afraid of looking him in the eye and knowing the best thing for me would be to keep my head forward.
In a swift motion, Luca turns me around like I'm a person that weighs nothing. He looks down at me, his chest heaving up and down, hands shaking in an almost unnoticeable way. I notice it though and it forces me to look into his eyes to see his expression.
Unlike his usual blank expression, Luca, for the first time since I've known him, is wearing a heated look on his face. He looks like he wants me more than I want him and is trying to restrict himself from throwing me on my bed and fucking me senseless.
Luca's hands twitch by his side, his eyes heavy with need and…pride?
Am I seeing pride in his look? He is proud of me for making a move on him.
Before I have the chance to ask my question, Luca drags me to him by placing his hands on my head, and softly pulls me by the back of my head until my head is almost hitting his chest.
He bends a little, so that our eyes are at the same level. His breath mixes with mine as we silently gaze into each other's eyes, our passion and need for each other obvious in both our eyes.
There were no words passed, no words needed. He knew I desperately wanted him and I knew he desperately wanted me too.
Without further adieu, Luca places his lips on mine in a soft passionate kiss that completely knocks me off my feet…literally.
My feet become mush once Luca kisses me softly. Unlike the rushed kiss I stole from him earlier, this one is slow, deliberate, passionate and more than mind-blowing.
Luca takes his time exploring every inch of mouth, making sure he leaves a mark by biting my lips in a manner that almost makes me combust.
My legs give out and I rest on him, unable to hold myself up any longer. Taking my weakness as a cue to completely dominate me, Luca's 6 ft 4 form hoists my slim body up, helping my foggy mind to wrap my legs around his waist.
I almost go to heaven and come back when I feel him.
Almost as soon as it started, it is brought to an end by a scream that almost tore both our ears out of our body.
Luca lets go of me immediately, almost dropping my ass to the ground but I catch myself before my ass could hit the hard ground.
A sob comes from my door entrance, snapping me out of the dumbing spell Luca's cast on me when he kissed me.
Ciara points an accusing finger at us both, turning her furry filled eyes from her boyfriend to me, unsure of who to accuse first. "You! You! You kissed him and you kissed him." She cries.
Feeling awkward, embarrassed and guilty, I shuffle on my feet, unable to keep staying steady. "Sorry, Ciara. I couldn't help it." I say inaudibly, almost so that she wouldn't hear it.
She hears every single word I spoke though and it only succeeded in fueling her anger. "How could you? How could you do this to me? I swear I'm going to kill you. I swear on my last breath that I will make sure you suffer for the rest of your miserable, wretched, abomi…"
"That's enough, Ciara. That's enough!" Luca says, running his hands through his hair in frustration.
"Babe, Luca. Why would you cheat on me? I thought you love me." Angry tears flows down freely from her eyes, causing the guilt in my chest to increase to an almost unbearable level.
Luca rubs his hands over his face, mumbling curses under his breath for only me to hear. "I thought you were supposed to be taking violin lessons? Why are you back so fucking early?"
"I felt bad for blowing up on Arthur earlier so I came back early to apologize. I couldn't concentrate on my lesson. You know I can't play shit when something is on my mind. To think I have been feeling guilty all day for Arthur's supposedly harmless love letter. Who would have thought he has something greater under his sleeves. If I didn't show up, he would have hooked up with you."
The next words that leave Luca's mouth shatters my heart so badly that I physically drop to the ground in pain. "I promise, Ciara, the kiss was nothing. It meant nothing to me. It was just an experience. I just needed to taste how the lips of a boy would taste compared to girls. I felt nothing but disgust when I kissed him. If it wasn't for the pity I felt for him, I wouldn't have even thought about it in the first instance."
"Okay, you are forgiven, baby. You know I could never be mad at you. Come here love." She gestures for him to come over to give her a hug and after, they kiss deeply.
"Go to my room, boo. I need to have a chat with Arthy here then we can do some naughty things." She winks playfully.
With a mischievous smirk and a spank to Cia
ra's ass, Luca leaves me alone with my evil sister who looks like she'll rip me into shreds.
