70-The last time
Ashley Walters pov
We all were shocked when Sarah hit Keith. First, she had disbelief on her face when she looked at me getting off the car along with Justin.
After she slapped Keith, we all gasped. The snake man was about to say something when Keith did not let him.
He just told everyone, it was no one’s business but Sarah’s and his.
Crazy girl and a crazy dude.
I did not know what got into her.
Before heading inside, the snake man told me while hugging me again that his name was Marwick, and he was Sarah’s brother.
Woah! Like I mean… small world. He was nothing like Sarah.
I had almost forgotten that he had become cold and distant when he was taking his leave in Arguli beach before dropping me at my cottage. But here when he lifted me and twisted me, making me laugh, he seemed almost like some other man.
A friendlier one.
“What are you so happy about?” Justin kissed my temple in the maid’s presence who was placing my things back in my wardrobe.
“Nothing. It’s just that I was not expecting such a warm welcome.” I sat down on the stool before the
dresser.
“You are talking about Marwick.” I did not know if Justin was asking me or just stating it.
“Marwick is a unique name,” I said and started brushing my hair. Justin stood behind me, looking into my eyes through the mirror.
Holding my shoulder, he leaned down and kissed my ear lobe causing a light tingle in the pit of my stomach, “The only name you should be liking is mine, kitten.” He whispered and his amber eyes were burning my soul.
“But I can make friends, Justin. Right? Or would I be needing your permission for that too?” He smiled because he knew I wanted to judge him by his answer,
The maid left the room silently giving us some privacy.
This time he kissed my cheek soundly making me smile, “Do whatever you want, love.” He whispered, “As long as you are not ignoring me.”
I did not know why my heart missed a beat. Why would he think that I would ignore him?
“I might ignore you ifffff …” I paused for a moment.
“IFFFFFF…?” He rested his cheek on my shoulder.
“If
you
“And?”
will keep supplying Doritos to me!” I told him mischievously still looking in the mirror.
“And if you will keep wiping my nose with your t–shirts…” When he made a face, I giggled.
“Anything else?”
“Yes,” I turned my head and brushed my lips to his cheek, “but I won’t tell you because you don’t want to do it for six months.” I pouted and he chuckled.
“Then how about we do it tonight?”
“Umm. I need to go Ice cream Heaven tonight. Remember?” When I reminded him, he leaned his forehead on my shoulder,
“Crap! How can I forget that?” Turning to him, I hugged him and kissed his cheek.
