Almost like love

The gurgling sound of water hitting the bathroom floor sounded clear, but the pounding in Marve's heart exceeded the sound of the water that was currently hitting him with Maya...

Marve was already possessed, a feeling he couldn't understand until he lost control and pulled Maya's body closer to him.

Marve looked into Maya's clear eyes who were now staring in confusion. He is looking for an answer that can describe the feelings he is currently feeling.

Could it be that he has fallen in love? Or maybe this was just a desire because he was too close to Maya like this?

"Close your eyes or don't blink for a second." Marve started seriously at Maya's eyes which were starting to look restless now while his hands couldn't let go of Maya's slender waist.

He brought his face closer when Maya was not afraid to look at him, her heart was the same as pounding but Maya tried hard to keep it calm but Marve continued to approach until Maya could feel her body shaking now.

Marve couldn't take it anymore, he kissed Maya's lips without hesitation and a little force. Kissed her until finally Maya gave up and slowly returned the kiss Marve gave to her, their tongues linked, Marve could not let the sweet taste from Maya's lips slip away from him so he took Maya's body and sat her on the sink so he could kiss Maya even deeper.

Maya was gasping for breath, she was almost out of breath if only Marve didn't take it off immediately but not to leave Maya but to take off the clothes he was wearing, Marve was shirtless now and quickly Marve approached Maya again and tore her nightgown easily leaving her black underwear wrapped around her breasts.

"Maya..." Marve's voice was hoarse, he grabbed Maya's face and acted to kiss her again, but Maya's hand touched Marve's soft lips just before Marve managed to kiss her again.

Maya didn't want to lose control, because the kiss Marve had previously given was so opening that she didn't want to stop crushing Marve's lips, but the reality is not as sweet as Marvel's lips. Their marriage is only a contract.

"Don't test me, Marve, forget what I said about my dream last night..."

Marve didn't stop letting go of her gaze which now slowly felt cold piercing Maya's skin, but he pulled his head a little away.

"I won't use feelings in our relationship, I won't fall for you, Marve." Maya slowly removed Marve's hand from her face and smiled softly.

"Take a shower first," Maya said before leaving Marve alone.

Marve hasn't got the answer he was looking for but his heart was disappointed when Maya said something like that and reminded him that this marriage had a short period, he must not be lulled. Maybe he was too warm with Maya to make him lose control.

....

Maya descended the stairs slowly when Marve was seated at the dining table, she was wearing a white dress above her knees this time, her hair was in a relaxed ponytail and her shoulders were shining when the light hit her.

Again Marve can't take his eyes off Maya if only Dewi doesn't remind him, Marve will put an empty spoon into his mouth.

"Am I late?" Maya asked she looked cheerful as usual, unlike Marve who felt a little awkward so she just shook her head briefly.

The waiter then served the food on Maya's plate but Marve had finished eating and left the dining table.

Maya turned around, feeling a little sad when Marve left her. Marve used to wait for her to eat together but this time Marve ate first, but Maya tries to think positively. Maybe Marve is already very hungry or maybe Marve is angry because she refused it? But making love was not in their marriage contract. Maya is really confused now.

Maya has finished eating, to be honest, she has no appetite. For the first time, she felt bad eating even though the dish served never failed her tongue but Maya's feelings became restless since she came out of the bathroom earlier even though Maya tried to act as usual but to be honest Maya was very nervous when she saw Marve.

Dewi has told Maya that Veronica has returned, so she doesn't have any activities at the moment. Maya then looked for where Marve was because she hadn't seen him since earlier, it seems like apologizing is the best way so that their relationship does not change.

Maya is still looking for Marve until finally, Maya sees Marve pensive in his rose garden.

Maya was just about to enter but her doubts got over her, she was afraid that Marve would come back to avoid her like at the dinner table earlier.

"Don't want to come in?" Marve's voice suddenly surprised Maya.

"Can I?" Maya asked carefully.

"Of course, as long as you are my wife .. you are the queen of this house, there is not a single place that you cannot enter." Marve opened the door for Maya, he tried to smile even though he could still feel his disappointment but there was no reason for him to be cold to Maya and if his attitude turned cold towards Maya then the spies his grandfather sent into this house would report to his grandfather.

Maya didn't want to discuss the incident, so she followed Marve's steps and sat on the bench right in the center of this rose garden.

The roses here are not only red and pink but also yellow and blue and even black.

"This rose is so beautiful, I have never seen a rose like this color." Maya approached the rose that stole her attention, the dark blue rose was almost black but beautiful.

"Can I pick it?" Maya asked but her hand had touched the stalk of the rose making her finger hurt and bleeding.

Maya cringed in pain when Marve saw her "stupid." sarcastically Marve without wanting to help wipe Maya's now dripping blood.

Maya's face looked irritated by Marve's words but she deserved the reproach because she wasn't careful.

Maya was about to lower her hand when Marve quickly grabbed Maya's injured hand and took a sip of hers.

"The blood will stain your clothes .." Marve kept sipping Maya's finger which made Maya's heart tremble a little.

Marve knew it was causing the awkwardness again this time, but even Maya's blood tasted sweet. I seem to have gone crazy ...

Maya pulled her hand as Marve began to stare at her, still with a sip of her finger, Maya's body suddenly felt hot and tense.

Now Maya chooses to return to sitting on the lawn chair, followed by Marve.

Maya was already holding a blue rose that Marve had picked for her.

"Marve.."

"Yes..."

"Aren't we getting too deep into our roles?"

Marve was silent, he did not rush to answer Maya's question about who trapped him because he also felt the same way.

"Regardless of the contract, we are indeed a husband and wife."

That's right, there was no point in the contract that said they were faking but there were only two points in the contract that is Maya must be the perfect wife for Marve and Maya must not fall in love with Marve.

Maya is silent now, to be honest, she is afraid that she will fall in love with Marve.

"Veronica is home." Marve changed the subject so that the atmosphere would melt back.

"Yes, Mrs. Dewi said she waited until ten o'clock. Who would have thought that we both could wake up late." Maya tried to smile even though it was not as casual as usual, Marve only smiled slightly.

"Marve, in the contract there is no discussion about making love, right? Am I wrong for rejecting you earlier?"

Marve is suddenly tense now, ok Marve must admit he feels embarrassed because he has lost control and Oh Maya why are you so innocent?

"How about we visit your brother and auntie and tell them about our wedding which is coming up soon. "

Maya was very happy to hear Marve invited her to visit her house, it's been almost a week and Maya missed her family so much that Maya forgot her previous question.

"Thank you, Marve." Maya could not help feeling happy, she hugged Marve tightly and briefly before rushing out to prepare.

Be calm, Marve, and don't cross the line again, so you won't hurt each other because love interrupts your hearts.

That way you will still be able to act as usual and part ways without the burden later.

Marve assured his heart that all she felt was not love and would learn to control himself even stronger.

But why did Maya ask that? Made him feel like he had hope. Oh shit!

***

Maya seems to have difficulty wearing the seat belt, making Marve have to intervene because she feels impatient.

Maya's heart trembled a little again, if little by little her heart trembled like this will her vibrations turn into a flutter caused by love.

No, calm down Maya ...

Control yourself, everything will be fine like the day before. Remember your goal in getting married is not to fall in love with him but only for your family.

Maya stared at Marve's face which was staring straight ahead, her face was so calm and charming. Unfortunately, Marve is very handsome.

"Don't look at me, or you will fall in love with me."

Maya looked away when Marve said something unexpected like that.

"Impossible..." Elak Maya, Marve smiled because Maya said it was carefree.

"What if I fall in love with you... "

Maya is stunned now, Marve is testing her now, she shouldn't tell Marve about her dream.

"My charm is unstoppable..." Maya tossed her hair, she chose to go back to being silly and stopped associating Marve's words with feelings, Likewise with Marve who could not help laughing at the joke that Maya made.

"Okay .. okay... Because your hair is not tangled anymore I was a little fascinated, but just a little." Marve replied, Maya, laughed because she was aware of her matted hair first.

Amid their laughter, Marve's cell phone rang and Marve immediately picked it up.

His face slowly darkened and without thinking, Marve turned the direction of the car.

"What happened to Marve? "Maya asked, but Marve ignored it, making Maya not dare to ask anymore because Marve's face looks very worried now.
