Chapter 572 - The attraction...

Sheryl smiled looking at the sleeping boy and bent down on her knees, sitting much closer to him. "You look so inncocent and cute. I can never tell you this while you are awake, but you are the first man who has effected me so much. You are the first man, who has made me feel secure in his presence, which I am actually surprised off. I slept with you, in one room and that too peacefully. What is it about you, that make me care for you so much? I just can not see you disturbed in your dreams, it makes my heart cry. Even if I try my best, I have this strong urge to take care of you till the eternity. Why is it like that? Huh?" Sheryl smiled and once again caressed her hand on top of the boy's shoulder, this time with much more confidence and care. 

Hearing the girl's words, Kareem's heart was beating rapidly now. He was extremely elated, hearing such sweet and unexpected words from the girl's mouth. Her soft and gentle touch was sending shivers down his spine, making his mind go berserk. He now had the strong urge to grab the girl from her waist and give her a powerful and loving kiss on her lips. Neverthless, he controled his urge and continued pretending to sleep, to hear what else the girl wanted to say to him. He knew that Sheryl was too shy and hesitant to say anything to him, while he was awake, so he decided to pretend for some more time to sleep.

Sheryl finally removed her hand from the man's shoulder and was yet smiling looking at the man's face. With her shivering hand, she held out her index finger and slightly caressed it on the man's lips, feeling their soft touch on her finger tip. Kareem was once again left stunned and he closed his fist tightly, controlling his errupting hormones. The ticklish sensations on his lips, were making his blood rush rapidly in his lower body.

The girl hesitated a bit and then her finger travelled to the man's nose and cheeks, as if she was now in a beautiful trance. She just wanted to feel the boy's skin at the moment, not caring about the fear of men she had inside her head, from past twenty years. Suddenly she had mustered all the strength to enjoy the soft touch of his skin, as if her emotions were not in her own control.

Kareem had yet closed his eyes, feeling the girl's beautiful and light touch. Her finger now travelled all the way upto his neck. The girl was getting more and more confident with her touch now, as she was now using all her fingers now, feeling the man's strong neck.  "I could just feel you all night and see you sleep so innocently like this, the entire time. Why do I feel so close to you? As if I have known you ever since, I have ever existed? Have we met before somewhere Kareem?" Sheryl smiled, caressing her finger tips to the man's neck. 

"It is because we are soulmates my dear. I am so glad, you have felt it too." Kareem finally opened his eyes, not able to control anymore and smiled looking at the girl. The girl gasped in shock and her hand stilled immediately hearing the man's reply. Kareem grinned looking at blushing girl.

Her mouth was wide opened in shock and she had immediately retraced hand away from his neck. "You... You were awake all this while?" Sheryl pursed her lips and hung her face low, as her cheeks heated up in embarras.e.m.e.nt. She felt like this small kid, who has been caught red- handed trying to steal his favourite candy.

"Yes." Kareem grinned and he held the girl's hand tightly. Sheryl tried to struggle away her hand, but Kareem did not budge a little.

"Leave me. Please leave me." Sheryl looked up with a shy face at the notoriousely grinning man. "No. I will not leave you. Ever my dear." He gently pulled her hand closer to his body, startling the girl as her entire body was also pulled closer to him as well. She finally lifted her head and looked up in the man's sea green eyes and the world stopped once again. She felt like she was drowning in his beautiful deep eyes, with nobody to save her. 

Kareem was also now intently looking in her beautiful big eyes, and their eyes locked for a very long time. After a few more seconds, Sheryl finally came out of the trance and blinked her eyes several times, feeling extemely coy. This has been the first time she had ever been this close to a man, and it was not just making her anxious but also very suprised. Something inside her was telling her to trust the man and not be afraid of him.

"Do not fight this feeling. You can trust me, my dear. I promise to wash away all your sorrows, and will make sure you only smile your entire life." Kareem with his other hand, touched the girl's soft locks. His hand then gently brushed he cheeks and she immediately backed off from his hand.

"No.. No.. Do not do this to me. It is not possible for me to like you." Sheryl once again tried to stuggle out her hand from the man's grip. Her heart was beating rapidly as she felt the man's loving and happy gaze on her face.

"Why not?" The man encircled his other arm around her waist. He pulled her closer to him, making her h.i.p.s rest on his arm. "Do you find me ugly?"

"No. That is no the case." Sheryl pursed her lips and looked away in the other direction.

"Ahh! So you find me attractive? Is that what you mean to say? "Kreem winked notoriously, looking at the girl's extremely red cheeks.

"No... That is not what I meant either. Stop teasing me Kareem and stop playing around with words." Sheryl finally struggled out of the man's grip and turned her body away from the man. She was about to get up and walk away, when the man held her waist with both his hands and with one swift and easy move, made her sit on his thighs, with her back touching his strong abdomen muscles. He then encircled his arms tightly around her waist and placed his chin on her right shoulder. He was grinning from ear to ear while turning his head, looking at the girl's surprised face.
