He got on top of me. "I was going to just let it slide, but someone just had to take a peek at me just now. I felt bad for making that person wait for me.”
"I did not..." I was only able to get three words out before he shut me up with his lips.
The delicate and long kiss made me feel like I had gotten entangled with a viper.
When he finally let go of me, I had difficulty even regulating my breathing.
"It's okay. I already know everything you want to say, and I believe you know what I want too."
He leaned his lips closer to my ear once again. A tingling sensation spread throughout my body. I felt my body burning up, and our hands were tightly clasped together as I allowed myself to slowly melt into his flame.
Early the next morning, I woke up to a bright sunny day.
Theo was already up, and when I opened my bleary eyes, he came over to the bed to scratch my little nose.
"I'm going to work now. You and Munchkin can take your time. When I'm in the conference room seeing the exhibition, I’ll have Keith keep you company. Don’t ever leave his side, okay?" Theo urged.
"Okay," I replied with a grumpy tone like a child being rushed.
"I'll come to you as soon as the meeting ends." He took my hand as if he was feeling uneasy.
I wondered if it was because of work or the environment in a foreign country that made him start to get a little anxious.
"Don't worry, Munchkin and I will wait for your return.”
"Okay." Theo nodded. He then got up and left.
After Theo left, I slept for a little while longer. I thought that I was sleepy, but after sleeping for just 10 minutes, my battery was fully recharged.
