Chereads / The Arranged Rings / Chapter 18 - 18. Kiss

Chapter 18 - 18. Kiss

My wedding was in a week. Everything was

falling into place. I was a bit nervous, even if I

really don't love this guy I was forced into it, but maybe it won't be as bad as it seemed.

"You do know you have to kiss him right?" Isha said. "What?!" I asked in shock. "What do you mean you have to kiss you husband on your wedding day!" Isha pointed out. I sighed. I completely forgot about that. Ughhh!!!

How was I going to kiss him?? It would be so

awkward! I groaned again. Great now I have

a headache. "Ian!!" I yelled in a whiny voice. "What is it?" He ran to the kitchen. "Can you reach the medicine for me?" I asked. He

looked at me and reached for the medicine on the highest shelf. He took out a pill and gave it to me, putting the bottle back onto the high shelf I was about to reach for the glass when I felt a warm slight weight behind me. And a hand brush against mine as he took the glass down from making the me shelf. shiver. I felt his hot breath on my neck

"T-thanks...." I stuttered like an idiot. "Your

Welcome." He tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. I softly smiled at the gesture, and looked up to meet his eyes. We stood there for a moment staring at each other. Locked in each other's gaze.

I felt so paralyzed by him, I didn't know why. I soon realized he was slowly leaning in I wanted to move away but I couldn't. I felt so

drawn to him, as I found myslelf leaning in as

well! We were centimeters apart. I felt his hot

breath against my lips...

Just then his phone began to ring. I moved away as I felt a wave of disappointment over me. He slightly groaned in annoyance before fishing his phone out. "What is it Rome!'" He huffed before walking out of the kitchen.

I clutched my chest. You were about to kiss

him Gaeun!!! What is wrong with you?!?! Ugh! But he was leaning in first! No. No no no. He's just messing with your mind Gaeun!

My wedding was now in two days. I had to stay at my parents house the day before the wedding which is tomorrow. Since it's 'bad luck' for the groom to see the bride before the wedding.

"Ok I'm leaving!" I yelled from the foyer. He rushed to where I was, earning a giggle from me. I couldn't help but think two months ago

when I was leaving and he never showed. But

today he did. "I'll see you on Saturday ok?" I

smiled. He nodded, and moved away a strand of hair from my face. "'Get there safe ok." He spoke softly with his hand still lingering on my cheek.

"Mmhmm." I replied with a small smile.I arrived at my parents house. My sister flew in

from London with her husband for my wedding they had to leave their son home with Ivan's parents, since he had school. I really wanted to see my nephew. This is an arranged marriage I told her she didn't need to come but she insisted.I sighed. "I'm home!" I yelled from my door.

The next day flew by quickly and it was now my bridal shower. "Come on its your last day as a single person!" Mia said. "I am not wearing that." I folded my arms. "Why not! It's hot don't you wanna look hot??" She inquired. I rolled my eyes. "Yeah Gaeun! Just do it we have so much planned!" Isha squealed. "Fine." I gave in and grabbed the skin tight black mini dress.
