968 Chapter 934

After dancing for another thirty they stopped and on their way back to the bar counter Alex met someone unexpected, it was Delphi but she didn't recognize him so he didn't bother stopping to greet her, if there was another chance he would talk to her in a more private place. There was a risk of creating a commotion if he were to do that here.

After sitting around the bar counter and ordering the same drink.

''Two glass of whisky please.'' Alex ordered.

The chief bartender nodded in agreement and proceeded to carry out the task after giving them a tissue box to wipe their sweat.

"You come here regularly?" Saeko has spent all her energy on the dance floor.

She took a tissue to clear her face of the sweat.

''Not really, it is my third time coming here. The last two times it was with Maria and the others.'' Alex answered while playing with his glass.

''I see I'm glad that you invited to your club. I want to spend the rest of my life following you. I want a place in your heart and I'm sure you must have noticed my feelings for you. So, I'll be bold to admit it.''

To this declaration Alex smiled and didn't look away as if he was telling her to continue with what she was saying.

Saeko smiled, full of happiness and after finishing her glass she said.

''When I see you, it's as if space and time become the finest point imaginable, as if time collapses into one tiny speck and explodes at light speed. It's as if my universe begins and ends with you. I could run forever, search forever, but in the end, every path leads right back to your heart and soul. I love you and I'm sure of my feelings. This trip was and excuse to confirm my feelings and finally made this declaration.''

Alex stayed silent for a moment before caressing her smooth skin as he declared.

''You have seen my life, my bonds and even after knowing all those things you still choose to love me, it would be a lie if I say that I'm not attracted by you. So, while you've accepted me despite everything I promise you that I will do the same. Let's do the journey together. It won't be easy but it will be different with you by my side.''

Saeko became emotional after hearing Alex's declaration, it was an acknowledgement, he acknowledged her love and even promised to reciprocate. And to Saeko there was anything more important than that, she felt blessed, her decision to confess was the right one. It doesn't matter the place you choose to confess, what matters is how genuine your feelings are.

If weren't because she was feeling shy she would have kissed him but she decided to postpone this for later.

One hour later the two left the club and to their surprise it was raining outside.

''Fortunately I've an umbrella with me.'' Alex declared before taking out the umbrella and shared it with Saeko. There was something romantic about sharing an umbrella. She could feel his heat through their shoulders, they two didn't rush back as if they had come to a tacit agreement to enjoy this beautiful moment together until it happened.

The rain created a beat upon the blacktop sidewalk. People passed as if in accelerated motion - all except two people whom have let their umbrella fall to the wet street and be blown by the wind. They were bound in a kiss that was so tender the world should stop on its axis and take note of their love.

The street appeared to have sprung into existence solely for the couple kissing so tenderly, their faces dripping with the wintry gifts of clouds. His hands, gently in her hair, hers upon his chest. Tucker smiles, and glances toward the sky that promises more rain to come, their sweet sound as a round of applause for love and romance.

Then they walked and in hand, droplets beading their hair.

With a genuine smile that came from the heart Saeko whose hobby was reading a romance books remembered few lines from one of them.

[There is something so heavenly about a kiss in the rain, a tender moment that just won't wait. It is that burst of love that is expressed, not caring if the water soaks through to chill the skin. It is a connection that shows the strength of the feeling, the mutual need. It is a rebellion against the elements. Nature can bring the rain but our inner sunshine comes through just the same.]

If previously the princess had not understood these lines because she had never experienced them, now it was different because she experienced it. She was glad she had kissed him back then when they were still inside the club because she was sure that if she had done that she would not be experiencing this heavenly feeling she had right now.

Saeko didn't care if her clothes became all soaked, the only thing that mattered was the feeling she was experiencing right now.

'His lips in their casual silent way, told me tonight it was going to be a great night.' Saeko thought while walking hand in hand with the man she first held admiration for but later it changed and become love, a love she would do anything for as she wished for it to last longer, for eternity if it was possible.

Meanwhile, Alex was surprised by his own behavior, while he intended on accepting this girl, what he did few minutes ago was beyond his expectation, there was something special about this girl, something he couldn't quite put her fingers on, still he was glad he accepted her confession.

Looking at her happy face he smiled and unconsciously his eyes were drawn to her lustrous lips he had just kissed few minutes ago. Her lips were as good as her eyes in painting a picture of her emotions.

'I'm really lucky to have all these women surrounding me. I must cherish every one of them.' Alex vowed in his heart as they reached their destination.
