And that is why she didn't give him the chance to disagree with what she had set her mind on.
[It's true I wasn't able to save you from falling off the cliff that dreadful night but I promise you that I will save you this time around. I will make up for my past regret and leave no room for future regrets]
Audrey clasped her fist, her gaze focused on nothing in particular.
"I can agree to take you along with me but you must promise to follow my arrangements...,"
"I thought we have already concluded on that issue so...,"
"I never agreed to that and for you to get my approval you have to agree to follow all my arrangements...,"
"Isn't it just to follow your arrangements?" Audrey snapped as she turned to look at his face. "I will do that," She stated fiercely.
Kyle, who assumed he would have a hard time convincing her was surprised that she agreed to what he wanted without asking about the arrangements he talked about.
Silence engulfed the room afterwards. While she kept her eyes glued on the interiors of the room, Kyle kept his gaze focused on her face.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Why do you keep staring at my face like that?" Audrey, who pretended not to know that he had been gazing at her face, asked at last.
"Do I have something on my face or are there any secrets you are keeping from me that you would love to disclose?" Audrey asked.
Audrey waited for Kyle to say something but the guy whose gaze was locked on hers would not stop looking at her face.
"Hey, say something and stop keeping me in suspense," Audrey snapped her finger at the guy whose mind had obviously gone on a long journey.
The startled guy blinked twice and tried to compose himself.
Audrey dug her nails into the couch when he suddenly closed the gap between them.
"And... w-what do you think you are doing?" Audrey stuttered and shifted a bit to create space between them.
"Now that we are done talking about them can we talk about us?" Kyle's words were more of a statement than a suggestion.
He moved closer to her for the second time.
"What is your response to what I said two days ago?... You weren't able to give me a reply because of last night's incident so will you do that now?" He asked, his passionate eyes locked in hers.
"Will you be my...,"
"S-sorry but I need to take my leave now," Audrey jerked to her feet.
And instantly, she tried to run away but the agile guy who had somehow seen this coming held her hand.
"If you don't feel the same way about me then let me know instead of always trying to run away or avoid the topic each time it is brought up...," Kyle trailed.
Although he looked so calm and sounded calm also, his erratic heartbeat gave away his true feelings.
"No matter how hard you try to avoid the topic you and I both know that we will still arrive at this topic at some point so what's the use of trying to escape each time," Kyle let go of her hand and lowered his head.
He really wanted to look cool until the end but he didn't have the confidence which is why he decided not to look into her eyes.
"You don't look like you are ready to hear what my answer is...,"
"Whether or not I am ready does not matter. All I need is your answer," Kyle clasped his fist and raised his head to look at her face.
Audrey took her time to study his face, including the emotions he was trying to hide before she started, "I will be a liar if I say that I love you because the truth is that I don't know what it means to like or love a guy...," Audrey let her word's trail.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKyle's grip on her hand loosened in an instant. His expectations crumbled at that very moment.
"I have never had romantic feelings for a guy so I would be deceiving you including myself if I claimed to love you... Judging from your past lifestyle I am sure you have never experienced what it means to be in love with a lady right?" Audrey decided to face her fears too.
"We met again not long ago so it's hard to ascertain whether what we feel for each other is love so let's not rush into anything to save each other from getting hurt at the end of the day...,"
"It takes less than a minute to fall in love so the period we have known each other doesn't matter," Kyle cut in softly.
"Also, you were right when you said I haven't fallen in love with any other woman before. That is a fact I won't lie about... but trust me, I know exactly what I feel for you," he confessed. He found the confidence to look into her eyeballs once again.
"This is a kind of feeling I have never felt for any other woman before...," He let his words linger as he slowly raised his right hand and placed it on her face.
"I know without any doubt that what I feel for you is love... I love you, Audrey," He whispered, his gaze still locked in hers.
"But...,"
"It's ok if you aren't sure of what you feel for me. I can give you time so please don't push me away hmm," His hand gently moved on her beautiful face as he talked.
Audrey wanted to say something but she found out that she couldn't utter a word after she got trapped in his passionate black orbs.
His face inched closer until they could feel each other's warm breath grazing their delicate skin.
