29 Chapter Twenty - Seven

What just happened?

Was i too harsh? Did i do something wrong? Why did he go? I groaned and then suddenly realised he was the one always doing the chasing. Ha always comes back even though it hard and i kept making it harder for him if I wasn't so stubborn..

Curse my obstinancy!

Now i just have to find him and make up! Yeah that's what I'm gonna do and fast too..

As i stepped out of the restroom, a hand gripped me gently yet firmly. I couldn't see the person's face but i know it was HIM. It was always him! Suddenly I got angry at him for leaving me in the restroom like that but I did not show it; not at the moment now. I need to apologize.

'Justin. Justin wait!', I called but he didn't budge..

He took me to the old chemistry building where you know his eyes were damaged. 'Why did you bring me here?', I asked him.

'We need to talk', he said. His chin hard, tight together.

Here it is! He's gonna leave me; he couldn't stand my attitude.

Oh my God, I wanna cry. A new feeling rushed through me, I was suddenly pissed.

'Why did you kiss me? Especially in front of Chloe?' I directed my questions at him. He groaned, removing his glasses and rubs his hands all over his face.

It was then I noticed the bags and dark circles under his eyes - as if he was tired and overstressed.

'Was it because of me?' Guilt seeped into me

'Because I love you Kylie', he said softly, putting back his glasses on again. 'And I'm sorry if you didn't like me kissing you - I'm sorry. It's just that I, I've ...'

I laid one of my fingers on his lips to shush him. I moved closer to him and removed my fingers. 'I never said I didn't like you kissing me', I admired how he looks in front of me. Baggy shirt, glasses sat on his nose.

My eyes were directed below his nose, looking at his lips seductively.

His plump, pink lips.

He frowned, his eyes in confusion, 'But you were just pissed now about me kissing you? You sound mad and I thought you were angry at me? Obviously you should..', he's rambling.

I silenced him with a kiss. 'I missed you', I say as I breathed on his lips.

'I missed you. More than you can ever know', he said as I titled my head to kiss him harder. He bent his head and kissed the base of my throat instead. I pouted and can't find the reason why he doesn't.. No, he wouldn't wanna kiss me. He chuckled at my childish behavior.

'You don't know how much i wanna kiss you right now', he skimmed his long fingers over my lips, drawing and pulling and I, the devil licked them as I looked into his eyes. He groaned and shut his eye for a few seconds before he reopened them.

'But i don't wanna do things WE will regret later. There's still issues we need to resolve before we do anything. What we have is the most precious thing in my life. Never forget that', he told me and kissed my temple in a caressing way.

My heart blossomed with love at the words the boy in front of me just uttered.

I tried to kiss him again but he moved away slightly, ' Until you forgive me wholeheartedly, settle the qualms between you, my mom and Chloe, there's no kiss for either', he joked.

'It's a joke right? He can't be serious.'

My jaw dropped slightly but I closed it before it's too late. He wrapped his arms around me to soften the blow. 'It's hard not to try to when you're so tempting right now', his gaze fell on my lips.

I was a bit hurt but I knew deep down he was right.

The relationship we had was a toxic one and until we get rid of our problems, it'd be the best if we don't do anything. No touching, no caress and no kiss but it's just SO HARD.

'OK', I agreed to my death certificate. He smiled and I couldn't help but smile back.

'Do you wanna ditch?', he asked playing with my hair. This is so gonna be hard to stay away from him. I recalled what he said and was totally surprised, 'The Justin Payne wanna ditch? Where am I?', I playfully turned around.

'Shut up', he retorted back and took my hand in his. And he already had my bag in his hands! How did he get that?, I wondered.

We walked to his house and it was empty.I sat on the couch looking at some random shows on the TV. I practically treat his place as mine now, it's so...

'Are you hungry?', he asked, breaking my chain of thought. He got up beside me and moved towards the kitchen, 'Yeah sure', I answered, following him.

'I never knew you could cook,' I watched him as he mixed some flour or dough (Idk any) to prepare pancakes.

'Me neither', he moved around looking for what's not to prepared to add.

'Liar!', I said. He just laughed and continued with the pancakes. I never knew he could cook. Did he do that when he was blind too? How did he...? I was caught off guard when I heard the sizzling of the pancake. I keenly watch him mix the flour with some spice, it soon turned to a yellowish color pouring some in the non-stickable fryer. And done already. That was fast.

He dished it on two plates, I took out some juice from the fridge and poured some in two cups, sliding syrup on the pancakes too. Lunch ready to be served.

It was really good. How could he cook like that though? I ate to my fill, belched loudly.

Justin turned to me, 'Glutton', he said laughing.

'You love me', I wiped my hands on the table cloth.

'Yes I do', He smiled. How did I ever get so lucky to call him mine.

'I really wanna kiss you so bad right now', I blurted out unintentionally but I don't feel any remorse for saying it out loud because it is what i was feeling. It's what has been going on in my mind for the past three minutes; watching him eat the pancakes. He licked the syrup around the corner of his mouth slowly, it's like I'm in a slow motion movie. It's so tempting, especially when you love the person.

'Me too but we have made a decision', he stood moving towards me.

I groaned, 'I forgive you. OK, I FORGIVE YOU', I tried to get him to kiss me again. What? Don't blame me! I'm a very desperate person. When I want something, I go for it. My friends don't call me 'Wham-bam-get-the-job-done-bam' for nothing. Classic right?

'You may think you have but I know you haven't. You're just saying that for me to kiss which I would love to', he added cheekily. 'But I don't want us to get together for one second and use the whole day to fight. I love you too much to see you hurt', he added, wrapping his hands around me.

I sighed. This is my life now.
