Chapter 46 - Love Rules

"You should explain to me better what those rules mean," I said as soon as we went out of the restaurant, my heart was about to explode in my chest. I was excited at the idea of dating him, I hadn't been this excited since my teenage years.

"As I said I usually date a woman because I don't like when women get too attached, I don't like jealousy scenes or any dramatic involvement. If you'll accept to be mine I will never give you any reason to doubt my loyalty and I will always prioritize you over everything." He said, and although those things shall be the normality I took a sigh of relief.

"I think houses are too intimate and would make our relationship take away too deep turn and I don't want that. I can come to your house and you can come to mine but we have to sleep in a hotel or somewhere else. I had never brought any girl in my room before." He continued with his explanation and my heart dwindled by discontent. That was such an odd thing, did he think women will fall in love only because they visit his room?

I ignored that rule and tilted my head to the side as I listened to him speaking, "I usually don't involve myself in sexual activities more than three times with the same woman and I usually do that not to be with that woman too long. But I guess we have to extend the rule for you." A smirk curved his lips and I couldn't stop a giggle from escaping from my mouth, "why?" I asked unable to hide the proud smile on my face.

I was glad not to be the only one to feel this intense attraction and connection.

"Because I had never been this into a woman like I am with you. This scares me but the urge to feed the craving I have for you is too powerful to be ignored."

I frowned my forehead as I mentally resumed his clauses, "so it's like if we are friends with benefits?"

He chuckled, "kind of. I'd like to call it an intimate attachment."

Friends with benefits but more professional, I nodded.

"And what do we... do when we don't..." I cleared my voice, "when we don't have intimate activities."

He smiled again as if he expected that question, "I get asked this question very often, as you said, we do what we had done the last weeks, just like special friends that are secretly dating."

I liked that, I didn't want other people to know about us, that would make lots of people speak and I also didn't want my mother to yell at me for replacing my ex-boyfriend too quickly. Maybe if we kept that relationship -or should I say friendship?- a secret we may end up lasting longer than I expected and who knew how the situation would turn.

Maybe he will give me a chance and we will end up happy together for the rest of our lives? It couldn't get worse than my last relationship so that kinda cheered me up.

"Secret dating, I like that." I smiled and he soon returned the smile. The wind blew his hair and he was so perfect and charming that I wanted to stare at him for my entire life.

"I like it too," he whispered, "and I like you." In a matter of a second, his hand went on my neck and he twirled me around to push me against the wall, I swallowed down. In the middle of the street is not what I considered doing it secretly.

He leaned forward, his hot breath tickling over my peachy lips, his massive body on mine, and my chest rising and lowering in a fast rhythm as my breath shortened.

"It will be so hard to resist you in public." He said, he leaned even closer, my whole body lusting for him. Every nerve on my body shivered passionately, longing for his kiss and his touch that I waited for so long to be on me.

But he let me go, and I knew that was the right thing to do since I didn't want to be seen either but I never wanted someone as much as I wanted him.

Silly me, to have thought Carl was my soulmate, he wasn't. not at all.

Cameron was, and my soul, heart, and body already knew it from the very first time I beheld him.

What did I put myself into?

I cleared my voice when I saw the old woman of my neighbor frown her forehead and scrutinize Cameron.

I waved at her, "miss Valerie."

"Tramp!" She whispered to me spitefully making me come back to reality.

I shook my head while Cameron giggled before sighing.

Secretly was a better idea.

"The tramp has to go home," I said, "We should talk about this tomorrow."

"Tomorrow?!" He asked widening his eyes, "I want to spend the night with you now." He complained, making my pride boost, did he like me that much?

I wanted to, but if he had a precise number of times to have sexual activities I didn't want to run off them too quickly.

"How many times can we spend the night together?" I asked raising my eyebrow letting him deduce the reason why I wanted to wait.

He seemed in difficulty as if for the first time he questioned his rules.

"If you promise me it won't get serious then how many times do you want." He finally said giving up to his heart probably for the first time in his entire life.

I opened the door of my car, and then looked up to him, "do you know any hotel in the vicinity?" I raised an eyebrow and I admired his face lit up and a cheerful facial expression grew on his face.

My heart drummed in my chest in excited and my smile never looked more joyfully than it was right now.

Eart to Lily, calm down this is just a night out, why are you so excited?!
