Homepage/Are We Still Strangers, Darling?/
Chapter 11
3rd Person Pov
Luan was preparing breakfast early in the morning. He was wearing an apron and his boxers only because he knew that she would love to see him like that. He knew that it was Solstice's day off today, so he didn't go to work too. He made tocino and bacon for breakfast because he knew that it was her favorite food to eat for breakfast. He also ordered her favorite Cokefloat.
When Solstice woke up, she was not expecting Luan to be still at home. After cleaning her face, she exited her room. Luan was in the kitchen when she got downstairs. She didn't just stand there and watch, instead, she went to the refrigerator and got something to cook.
"What you're doing?" Luan inquired, his gaze landing on Solstice. He gave her a smile and stepped behind her, his hand was moving down from her arm until it reached down to her hand. He held her hand,placing back the food she got back to the refrigerator.
She just froze their, feeling his hand on her hand. While she froze there, Luan was holding her hand and putting back the meal she had gotten. She was taken aback by his actions, which she had not expected from him.
“Hey, I'm talking to you,“ he said, trying to sound irritated so she would answer, but the truth was, he was smiling behind her.
“Darling, I'm going to cook food for myself,“ she said, turning around and saw the wide smile plastered on Luan's face. He was smiling because finally, he heard her call him darling again.
He was staring at her as if she were the most precious thing in existence. He encircled her waist with his arm, embracing her tight and carefully as if she were the most fragile thing he had to hold with care.
Her breath became heavier as memories of his mistreating her rushed through her head. She was in distress again. She has no idea why he is like this. She didn't want to get her hopes up since she didn't want to be hurt AGAIN.
“Calm down, calm down, “ she murmured under her breath, calming herself down.
“Are you fine?“ he asked. He placed his hand on her cheek and gently caressed her cheek with his thumb.
“Yes, I'm fine,“ she mumbled, nodding her head. She fixed her gaze on his eyes. His eyes were not filled with hatred, but rather with unspoken emotions.
He locked his gaze on hers and leaned in closer, their foreheads brushing against each other. One of his hands continued to caress her cheek as the other rested on her waist. He pressed his body into hers, squeezing her waist and pulling her closer.
While she stared into his eyes, Solstice felt as if time had slowed down. As he drew her closer, and she gasped. Time seemed to move slowly at first, but as soon as he pressed his lips against her, it felt like lightning struck, it was so fast that she didn't get the chance to avoid or react.
He kissed her passionately and softly, feeling her soft lips against his own. Reaching for her leg, he lowered himself a little. He pressed her leg against his waist as he brought it up to his waist.
The long, passionate kiss was becoming increasingly heated. Underneath their noses, they could feel each other's hot breath. Luan's head tilted, deepening their kiss. He bit her lip a little, she gasped, her lips parted, and he took the opportunity to push his tongue into her mouth.
Their tongues brushed and rolled against each other, exchanging saliva and drooling down some of it.Luan broke the kiss after a while, his forehead pressing against hers and a string of saliva linking their mouths.He fixed his gaze on her as her chest rose and fell and she breathed heavily.
She was at a complete loss as to how to respond to what had just happened. It was the first time they had kissed. It was the first time they had done something like that. She turned around and ran.
Luan grabbed her arm and carried her to the dining room before she could run. He carried her as if she were a bride. He placed her into the chair with care.
His hand was on his hip and the other was going through his hair as he stood beside her. "I was cooking breakfast, sit and eat when I'm done," he sighed and looked at her.
“Why?... “Solstice looked up at him, confused.
“What do you mean why? “he raised a brow, looking at her.
“Why are you like this? I don't understand, do you now have feelings for me? “ she took his hand in hers with a bit of hope in her eyes.
“I think the food is ready now, “ he avoided the question. He walked back to the kitchen to get the food.
Solstice sighed and rested her head on the table, “you're so cruel darling.. “
He heard what she said, he continued to the kitchen, muttering, “I know Solstice, I'm sorry. “
He returned to the dining room after getting the meal and placing it on the table. He held the plate with rice and put rice onto Solstice's plate, along with bacon and tocino.
Solstice smiled at him, “thank you. “
“Always welcome, enjoy your food Sol,” Luan motioned her to eat.
Solstice's Pov
I'm not sure why I'm feeling hopeful again. Luan gives me hope, yet he doesn't respond to my query. I'm not sure if he's trying to hurt me. I'm not sure if this is true. Is this some sort of revenge or something? True or not, I'm willing to take a risk. I want to take advantage of this while Luan is treating me like this. I've been hurt before, so maybe if I keep going, it won't hurt too much.
I'm working on the time machine, so I should take advantage of this opportunity to spend time with him till I finish it. He will soon gain the freedom he desires. I'm hoping that our last and first meeting would be outside of Baba's office before I choose who I'll marry.
After I time travel, I won't harm you anymore darling.
