He is taller than me and I am sure even if I stand on my toes I won't reach him so I grabbed his collar and pulled him down to my eye level. Our gang including Ken gasped at my action. I was flustered momentarily to do what I was about to do in front of them thinking they realized what I was about to do but I understood they thought I was gonna slap him. How absurd does that sound? Why would I slap him? Gouenji at that? After my drunken spree they somehow think I a violent person huh?

I looked into his eyes directly and looked back slightly confused. I was so scared and embarrassed that I want to run right away but I can't. I can't keep running forever. This is no big deal Destiny! You can do it! He is no stranger but your very own fiance whom you love with your  life and who needs reassurance. I want him to be able to trust me and be comfortable. I want him to know that nothing or none can sway me. I don't mind him showing these jealous actions but somehow I have a feeling that he is still scared that I will leave him. May be I didn't reassure him properly that night.

I gave myself small pep talk for what seemed like hours but I know in reality it was for seconds and with determination I moved forward and my lips touched his. I could feel him freeze on spot which again started a mini panic in me. I forced myself to calm down and slowly started moving my lips against his. I moved closer to him and deepened the kiss but he still remained frozen. I started to panic. May be he doesn't want to kiss me after what happened?

After all I did scold him unreasonably! It's normal to get injured in sports especially in sports like kick boxing and I wanted him to take easy on Ken when they were competing. May be it sounded like I didn't care about Gouenji and he is angry with me? I was about to move away when his hands slowly and delicately rested on waist. Feeling relieved I moved my hands to his nape playing with the hair there and tugging it,  traced his lips for entrance and he opened immediately almost like in a trance. I slipped my tongue in kissing him even more deeply, pouring all the passion and love. My lips moved urgently against his, a fire igniting inside me like it always does when he kisses me passionately but the one difference now is that I am the one who initiated the kiss.

I moved back after what felt like eternity because I am not an alien or some sort of supernatural creature so I needed to breathe. We were both panting heavily and I can see our gang from the corner of my eye gaping at us or me in particular. Of course they would! You don't get to see me sucking someone's face so boldly but no matter what I found myself doing things to make Gouenji happy. The things people do for love.

"I..." I panted trying to take in oxygen as much as I can and get my breathing to regular. "I ..I  am..sorry.." I looked up at him and was about about to continue but stopped abruptly. "Wait! Are you.....blushing?" I asked incredulously

I mean how absurd does that sound? I mean Gouenji, the prodigy blushing? But as ridiculous as that sounds I can't deny that if you look at his cheeks closely they look pink in the slightest. He looked shocked but there is a slight pinkish tint to his cheeks. As soon as the words left my mouth he used his hand to shield his face leaving me shocked. That means he is really blushing?

"You..." I started but before I could say anything he took hold of my wrist and dragged me to his car ignoring whatever our friends could be shouting, opening the door he gently but firmly pushed me into the passenger seat, closed the door rounded to the driver seat and before I knew we were going home, I assume, in utter silence. It was very awkward to me. 

"Nice weather."

I cringed as soon as those words left my mouth. Nice weather? What the hell am I talking about? That is the word which practically establishes the awkwardness of the situation. How many times have I read about such a situation or seen in T.V and practically face palmed myself saying couldn't they come up with something better and here am I saying the exact words. I am a hypocrite I say. From the corner of my eye I could see Goeunji looking at me as if I have gone crazy and  agree with him absolutely. It is especially hot and sweaty today for some reason and here I am saying that the weather is nice.

 I didn't even choose a day with nice weather to say such awkward words. I turner myself to the window completely and closed my eyes cringing wishing the earth to swallow me. Before long I could hear the car slowing down and I opened my eyes to see that we indeed area at home. Gouenji got off fast and opening the door he took my hand and again practically dragged me along with him. I had to powerwalk to keep up with his pace and he didn't once stop or slow down till we reached his room or our room since I am sleeping with every day. 

Locking the door he sat on the bed leaving me to stand and look at him awkwardly. He buried his face in his hands which are resting on his knees making me even more awkward. Luckily before I could open my awkward mouth and sprout some more nonsense he dropped the stance and looked at me fiercely startling me.

"I am sorry." He stated leaving me confused.

"Wait! Wait! No I am sorry. I really didn't mean to make you jealous or uncomfortable. I knew Ken from my childhood and he was really close to me. He always maintains some sort of physical contact with me and it was normal." Apparently that was the wrong thing to say because the temperature dropped several degrees and I could feel a murderous aura around him. "No, no, no that's not what you think. He is liberal with touching people and never crosses the limits. He doesn't harbor any feeling about me and is like my sister. He is an immature guy but sweet. He might have tried to get on your nerves but that is a form of entertainment to him. And he definitely doesn't mean any harm. He is harmless in all ways. And I should have noticed you are feeling uncomfortable right away. I understand completely. If there was some girl behaving in the same way with you I would definitely be angry at you so I should have known or may be I didn't give you more reassurance, shown my feeling more so that you could trust me more, you know..."

"Wait!" He raised his hand in stop motion stopping me from the word vomit. "He was like your sister?"

"Yeah." I answered firmly. Is that all he got? I am trying desperately to convey my feelings here.

"Not brother?"

"Oh! That's how I feel like and that is how he prefers too. And yeah he has a boyfriend too. That's a major factor I forgot to tell and they are in a committed relationship for years so you need not worry about it. I will give it a day before he comes here because he can't stay away from Ken for long so you can know I am telling the absolute truth and also..."

"Still I don't like you being close with others." It almost looked like he was pouting.

"Yup! That is what I was saying. Since you are not comfortable I will make sure that doesn't happen. It has been a long four years so that happened, he wasn't normally like that and he won't have a chance too because his boyfriend will be with him. You can say they are like Fidio and Lillian pair in a way, very close. The relationship which I envied, not in a bad way though, but in I wish my boyfriend was like that."

As soon as I said that I was yanked onto the bed lying flat down and in the next second Gouenji was hovering over me surprisingly.

"What about now? You have me. Do you still feel that way?"

"No." I replied immediately though I wanted to say yes and see what he would do then.

"Good." I did observe that he slowly lowering himself onto me and now his lips are brushing against mine lightly when he is speaking. The way his breathe is hitting my lips, the low husky way in which he is speaking has me almost close my eyes in dizziness. "Even if you said yes you wouldn't get a relationship like them because you are with me. Being with me will be different."

"I know. You are different but I won't have you any other way." Yeah why would want to. Thinking about him fills my heart with a warm feeling, a overwhelming love and passion. If he starts doing things like other couples I think my heart would explode with love overload.

Giving me a small smile his lips finally touched mine and my eyes closed automatically relishing the feel of him. That is such a sweet feeling and that is how the kiss is. Slow and sweet. Very innocent just conveying the sweet love and a mild apology. Feeling each other's presence, treasuring each other and loving each other.  Slowly parting from me he gave a one last peck to me and it took me a second before I can open my eyes.

"Sleep you are tired and tomorrow is the Graduation day so you will need your energy." He ordered with a kiss to my forehead. As soon as he said that I realized that I am indeed tired. We stayed well into the morning hours because of the bachelor party yesterday night. Lying down beside me he gathered me into his arms and the warmth of his body and his steady heart beat lulled me into sleep before I knew it.

^^Graduation Day Morning^^

Yawning I woke up lightly stretching, my eyes closed still to enjoy a few seconds of calmness.. Since I slept rather early yesterday I had long hours of sleep and am feeling quiet refreshed. I registered my brain that the bed texture felt slightly different. Blindly touching it, it felt different. Like flower petals? Opening my eyes I had to close it again because I was dreaming. I mean that was definitely not where I slept. Rubbing my eyes I opened them again to find the same scenario. What the  hell? I pinched myself confirming that I am not dreaming but this is reality.

The entire room is red. Bed, floor and whatever surface is there is covered with red rose petal thickly. Every where you see there is rose petal no inch of space. I guess glitters were also sprinkled along with the rose petal since I could see them glittering. And that's not the only thing. There are red love shaped balloons everywhere. The ceiling has red roses woven intricately and beautifully into it.

So all in all the room looked like cupid threw up everywhere. I stayed paralyzed taking in the beauty of the room not a word coming out. How did it happen with me still sleeping in the room? And not to mention in one night?

"Good morning." A voice greeted me and I turned to find Gouenji standing with a smile increasing the beauty of the room. He stood dressed and ready to go to college. His button up shirt and pant a deep black color, a complete contrast to the room making him stand out even more. His hair tumbled in a messy way like usual and with the smile on his face he looked good than any model.

"Do you like it?" He said obviously referring to the room and I was tongue tied because how can you explain the beauty of this room? It's so beautiful that words can't even describe it. I agree whenever I saw a romantic scene in movies where the room is covered with flowers I wished it happened to me and here it really happened and not just that but the room is so beautiful that I never saw in any movie. It's simply breathe-taking. 

"You are tongue-tied huh?" He started walking towards me. "So I take it that you like this." He bent down and kissed me delicately on my lips. It was a little more than a peck and slow but the love he conveyed in it was unmistakable.

"I love it." I finally replied. I was awarded with another one of his lovely grin. I agree that with everyday passing I am getting more of those grins but still every grin catches me off guard like the first one and the effect it has on me doesn't decrease.

"I am glad."

"What is this for?"

"Your graduation gift."

My eyes widened at that. "I didn't prepare anything for you." I really didn't. It did cross my mind but I absolutely didn't know what to get him. So I didn't bother because I am sure he graduated at least thrice by now.

"I don't mind. This is also an apology for yesterday."

"But you don't..."

"Ssh! I don't want to hear anything. Also who told you that I am not taking anything from you for graduation. I am going to." The glint in his eyes made me shut up and blush. I don't know what he planning but I have an idea of what kind of gift he plans to take from me.

***************************************************************************************I hope you like this chapter. And that the description of the room is enough. I tried to include pictures but none even came close to what I imagined. We are slowly nearing the end of the book but I am not sure how many more chapters are there and I can't estimate because I never imagined IAA would be these many chapters and by the time Aram problem was solved I thought it would be over by 75 chapters and here we are in 78th chapter so I don't know how many more chapters. And yeah today is graduation means the next day would be their marriage!!!!!!! Any one excited for it????

So please vote, comment and share! Till next update! Have a nice time!
