CHAPTER 8
MAGEDELENE'S POV
I dont know what comes over me, am becoming freer with Philip, it seems like he could read my thoughts, he lives under my skin, he knows what I need before I know about it.
Trying to distracting myself, I look over at collection ,It reasonates with me, with who I am, I bring out my camera, which Steph had gifted me, before coming to college..
Take a picture of it, along with the other pictures I took.
It was getting late, we had to leave
" Philip, you are right, I needed to step out of my comfort zone, I really needed this".Magedelene says looking at the gallery once again.
Philip looks at her, smiling, then he hold her hands
"Hey, you know today ,shouldn't end this way, yunno".
"What do you mean by that". He didn't mention this, She gently removes her hand
He smiles "I was just thinking, I just want you to come see my favourite spot with me". Philip pauses, then he continues
" To be very honest, I really do enjoy being here with you". He pauses this time, wanting to hear Magedelene response.
She did enjoy the time she spent too, remembering her mom words
' Am just glad you're having friends '.
"I will agree to that, as long as you're taking me home before 10pm".
"Okay, he smiles , unlocks the car and they went in.
"What's your favourite music right now" He looks over at the rear mirror
"Be Honest by Jorja and Burna boy". She says, Philip takes his phone and plays the music.
She jams along with the music, Shaking her body to the rhythm.
I know you want me
Every day, not only when you're lonely, yeah
You see, you think you know me
But you don't even know nothing about me, yeah
You see my, thick thighs.
She stops when she feels Philip eyes on her.God the stares were crazy, she didn't know how long she can resist him.
" Yunno, i haven't seen all this part of you,I just really want to get to know you more". Philip says,
it made her heart rise fast
Magedelene couldn't remember the last time, her heart was rising this fast, but it all ended in tears.
She wasn't ready to give out her heart again, not now, that she was starting to make friends, liking this new city, things were peaceful.
She wouldn't let herself feel this, to enjoy this, what if she lets him in and ------
Philip jamming to the song, cutting her thought short, she joins in, she had to,this was her jam...
Tell me, tell me, tell me, do you want me on top?
So let me show you, show you, show you, I don't need to back it up
Don't wanna hold you, mould you, scold you, split you in half with my heart
I just wanna love on you, trust in you, honour you, please, do the same on your part
" I didn't know you knew this jam" titling her head towards him.
"Weell, you don't know alot of things about me, I mean we could have so much in common". He looks at her smirking.
" So tell me what don't I know about you" she replies smirking too..
"Well, that's the conversation for tonight" he tilts his head towards her
" We've gotten to our destination for tonight".
They step out of the car, he stretches his hand over to her, Magedelene places her hands on his hands ,
this thought running through her head
" Oh God, please help!".
PHILIP'S POV
"Haven't we gotten there already". Magedelene mutters in the elevator, " am getting tired already".
" I could carry you, yunno, I am handy and specialized in that kind of area". He lifts his hands towards her.
She pushes his hands away, as rolls her eyes, the elevator opens, her mouth goes wide open as she discovered they were at the top of a building".
"Wow, she exclaims, " it beautiful".
" Just like you, Magedelene". Philip goes towards her, their face touching eachother
Magedelene steps backwards blushing
" I mean, have never been on the top of a building before, it one of the things on my wishlist".
" I am glad, you are allowing me to do this things for you". He draws her closer, he kisses her cheeks.
'where the hell was this confidence coming from' he thinks
Magedelene doesn't move this time, Their face getting close again,the heat intensifying. Philip arm goes around her back, creating no distance between them.
Her phone rings out, cutting the whole romance short.
"Shit, it's my alarm". She mutters, looking everywhere but him.
" It okay, Philip holds her hand and takes them both to the couch facing the stars.
"What would you care for, l want to make an order". She tells him her order, he types it on the phone .
He sits besides her, facing her.
" Magedelene, out of all the college, why this college".
She gathers her strength looks over at him, contemplating with eyes.
He could see it, he was about to change the topic,
she closes her eyes and he sees her trying to express herself
" I grew up hearing my mom died,
My dad had given me away, I got adopted by the most beautiful soul on earth Steph,
We had to change home everytime cause I got bullied and her ex husband really tortured her..
". Magedelene pauses, opens her eyes which was already moist,look over at Philip
" This is the third city we are moving into and for the first time in my 18th year, I feel at home, I feel like this is where I should be."
As she opened her eyes, tears started flowing..
God with all the tears, she still looks gorgeous..
I had no idea you went through all that,but am here now, that's what matters". Philip holds her hands, bringing her closer to himself.
she looks up at him, their eyes meeting, she moves closer, their lips touching.
