Chapter 59: Unexpected Meeting

...

It was like my lips has it's own way of responding to his kiss. I immediately put my arms around his neck while his hands are traveling down to my waist. Our kiss got deeper and deeper and it makes me crazy. He then started walking until we got into my bed. He laid my head down on the pillow before he stared at me for seconds.

My heart was pounding so fast when he started kissing my cheeks down to my neck. I immediately opened my eyes when I felt discomfort. I realized where this will go and I figured I'm not yet ready. He then stopped and looked at me.

"Hey, what's wrong?" he softly asked but I don't know how to answer. "It's okay if you're not ready," he said with a small smile. He really knows the way I act. He kissed my forehead and was about to go away but I held his hand.

"Can you stay here for the night?" I shyly asked.

At first, he wasn't sure and he just smiled at me. "Of course," he said before lying down next to me. He covered us with the thick blanket because it's cold in here.

We didn't talk about what should've happened tonight because that will be so awkward. Instead, we talked about our lives so we can know more about each other until I fell asleep in his arms.

The next morning, he was still asleep and I didn't want to wake him up so I got up alone instead. I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my face. After that, I went to the kitchen to cook our breakfast. I fried some egg and bacon before slicing some apples. I made him coffee because he doesn't like milk or juice in the morning.

I placed everything on two plates before cleaning the tools I used to cook. I put the milk and creamer that I used for his coffee back in the fridge and at that exact moment, Kellen went out and yawned. I hope he had a good sleep.

"Good morning," I said while placing the plates on the breakfast table. Good thing he has woken up already so the food won't get cold.

"Good morning, Love," he greeted back before walking towards me and kissing my left cheek. It made me giggle but I didn't let him notice that, of course. He's now wearing sweat pants and a plain V-neck shirt. He also smells good, he must have taken a shower already. I sat in front of him before we started eating.

The meeting will be from 9:00 AM to 10:00 AM. I also reminded Rowan that he'll drive for us today because we also need to attend a short seminar at 3:00 PM later. I'm now expecting that I'll be exhausted when the day ends but it's fine. As long as I'm with Kellen, I won't ever think that work is very tiring.

"How's your sleep?" I randomly asked just to start a conversation. We still didn't say a word since we started eating. I closed my eyes for a few seconds when I remembered what happened last night. 

"It was good," he shortly answered. He's not mad at me, isn't he?

"I'm sorry about last night," I apologized for how I acted. After I responded to his moves, I suddenly felt uncomfortable and I don't even know why. Or just maybe because I'm really not ready for that thing. I'm still scared.

"What?" He curiously looked at me and his eyebrows were furrowed. "Liv, you don't need to say that. In fact, I'm the one who needs to apologize. I'm sorry for doing that even I know somehow that you're still not ready," he explained. "I couldn't help myself. I'm sorry," he repeated.

I took a deep breath before standing and hugging him from his back while he was still sitting. My arms were around his neck. "I love you," I whispered in his ear.

I felt his lips form a smile. "I love you more," he said before kissing my cheek again. I walked towards my place and pulled the chair so we could it near each other. 

When I sat down, he wanted to feed me by putting the food in my mouth but he playfully took it away when I already opened my mouth. He laughed at me so I punched his arms, getting embarrassed now. I just rolled my eyes at him because he was still laughing at me.

"Okay, here it is," he said, putting the spoon near my mouth but he's still holding his laugh back.

"I don't want it anymore," I told him.

"Aww, she's mad at me," he said before placing the spoon on the plate and pulling my chair closer which made me hold into his arm. He leaned closer and intensely looked at me. I kept my mouth shut. He's always near to me but whenever he stares at me like this, I get weak!

"W-What?" I stuttered. He's so irresistible. His blue eyes are reflecting on the sunlight because the blinds here are down. His lips are so... red.

"You're mad at me," he said, pouting his lips a bit.

"I'm not," I shortly said before pursing my lips.

He came closer and closer until our faces are just inches away from each other. I can't breathe! "You are." He suddenly gave me a quick kiss on the lips. I didn't have the time to close my eyes because I was shocked. "Now, are you still mad?"

I shook my head but for some reason, I wanted to say yes. Was it because I wanted another kiss? Oh, for God's sake! Don't be so fragile, Olivia!

...

The meeting started at 9:00 AM sharp and it ended earlier than the expected time. As I wished, the meeting went smoothly and the files of the new building that will be built here in Ohio are now in process. The estimated time before the building starts is ten months to one year. Time flies so fast and I believed that it'll just be a blink of an eye.

"Are you hungry?" he asked. We're now inside the car, heading back to the hotel so we could rest before attending another meeting later.

"No. I'm still full," I told him. We ate a lot this morning because I cooked a little too much but we also ate it all because the bacon was so good. I think it's an imported one from China because bacon is really famous there.

"Okay, let's have some rest first," Kellen said.

We had our lunch at the hotel and we also watched a movie to kill some time because we were both not sleepy. Then, we got ready for the second and last meeting for this day. We went there early and also the meeting started at 3:00 PM sharp. But this time, it ended later than the time they told us.

We didn't go back straight to the hotel because Kellen wants us to have dinner in the restaurant he always eats whenever he comes to Ohio. I reserved a table for two right away. The restaurant wasn't very near here so we had a long drive but it's okay. The traffic is not heavy and I enjoyed looking at the window because the sceneries here are very beautiful. After forty-five minutes, we're already at the restaurant.

We got out of the car and Kellen even opened the door for me as we enter. The receptionist accompanied us to our table and the waiter gave us the menu right away. The food here looks good but so expensive but I don't wonder why he wants to eat here. Money isn't something that can prevent Kellen from buying things or food that he wants.

"What do you want?" he asked me while holding the other menu.

"I'm craving for sweet and sour chicken. I want this one," I said and pointed in on the menu. He also ordered the same because he said he haven't tried it yet. 

After we ordered, we waited for at least fifteen minutes before the food got served. I was about to take a bite when I heard an unfamiliar voice.

"Oh my God, Kellen?" 

I turned to my left and I see a smiling beautiful woman. She looks like a model and I think she's a bit older than me. I looked at Kellen he looks stunned. He wasn't expecting her, I guess.

"Hattie," he mentioned her name.

Her eyebrows furrowed. "You're not happy to see your ex-girlfriend?"
