Chapter 40

ODETTE'S POINT OF VIEW

I got awake seeing Kiel wasn't beside me, but we slept last night together. I get my hair clipped, and before I get up, I look in the mirror. Fix my hair and move some morning glory into my eyes. I saw Kiel cooking. I was about to hug him from behind when I saw the way his hips moved. He felt the music as his eyes closed. I open my phone and record him.

When he opened his eyes, he finally realized I was filming him.

"Stop recording me." He's trying to get my phone from me.

"Why, love? You should not be shy about it; you even act in front of the camera as an actor, right?"

"Fine." Kiel ignored me after that; he just continued cooking. Did I do anything wrong for him to be ignored in that way?

In just a minute after I posted it, a lot of people commented on it.

I didn't know, but out of nowhere, I called Clay.

"Clay, Kiel is ignoring me; I don't even know the reason why."

"Ah, about that Odette, you need to know something." I heard her take a deep sigh. It seems serious for her to sigh like that.

"What is it? Has he cheated on me again?"

"No, but you're viral right now, in a hot issue with Duke." Wait, the issue was still about yesterday; is he still jealous of Duke? I thought we were fine last night; we even slept together, right?

"Is this about yesterday? I thought Duke would do something about it."

"It wasn't that viral right now. It was your photo of Duke kissing in the music room on our prom in high school."

"You're joking right, me kissing Duke." I had a sacrificial laugh hearing what Clay said to me. I pretend I don't know what she was talking about.

"Wait, how did you know we kissed in the music room?"

"I was there when you guys kissed; I was looking for you, but when I saw you, there you were with him."

"Shook! That's why he looks like he has thought in his mind, "Thank you, Clay; see you later."

I didn't know, but out of nowhere, I called Clay.

"Clay, Kiel is ignoring me; I don't even know the reason why."

"Ah, about that Odette, you need to know something." I heard her take a deep sigh. It seems serious for her to sigh like that.

"What is it? Has he cheated on me again?"

"No, but you're viral right now, in a hot issue with Duke." Wait, the issue was still about yesterday; is he still jealous of Duke? I thought we were fine last night; we even slept together, right?

"Is this about yesterday? I thought Duke would do something about it."

"Wait, how did you know we kissed in the music room?"

"I was there when you guys kissed; I was looking for you, but when I saw you, there you were with him."

"Shook! That's why he looks like he has thought in his mind, "Thank you, Clay; see you later."

'After what you've done, you will post a video of Kiel like nothing is happening, bitch! What a slut you are?'

'She's still using Kiel after she cheated on him; how pathetic she was.'

'She's so desperate after kissing Duke that she's now posting Kiel; you should feel ashamed of yourself, bitch!'

Me kissing Duke? Wait, when did I kiss him? I scrolled through my Facebook account and looked at what they were saying I cheated on. I saw the picture of Duke kissing me; wait, that was when we were in high school in the music room. But how could we have a photo? It was only me and Duke in the music room, and all the students were in the auditorium. No way; who will be it?

"Love." I heard Kiel call me.

"Ah yes, love?"

"You're spacing out, love; are you okay?" I nodded at him and smiled. But he didn't look convinced by my smile; he went beside me and hugged me tight.

"You saw the photo, don't you?"

"Love, let me." I stop talking when he acts to zip my mouth.

"I understand, okay, those photos look too old to recognize them at first. And seeing you kiss him at first made me feel jealous. But it seems like you're too young to know it. So don't worry, love; I'm not mad at you. And I will do anything to find out who's behind those photos, okay? I love you."

"But, love, I just want to tell you what happened that wasn't what you were thinking or what they thought about me." He took a deep breath and smiled.

"Fine, what happened to that love?"

Flashback...

It was prom night, and when Duke asked me to take a dance with him, I thought it was fine since he was my best friend. I gave him my hand and got up as we went to the dance floor. He put my hand around his nape and held my waist while I looked into his eyes, feeling the rhythm of the song.

"You're beautiful as always, babe," he whispers in my ears. Those words make my heart skip. Duke was my first boyfriend, and we are in the middle of a private relationship. That time, Duke was training as an idol for a new boy group.

"Stop teasing me; they might hear you," I said, and I stepped away an inch from him. I can see his face becoming sad.

"Fine, I just miss you." To be with you, I've been busy these past few days since we're about to debut for a few months for now, and when that time comes, I'll barely see you then."

"I told you, it's fine; it was the best for you. I can come to all your shows, no matter what happens. Okay, I'll be there to support you. I'll be your number-one fan. I understand it was important to you, just as I'm important to you. So I don't have anything to worry about."

"But you know, when we got our debut, we would have a lot of projects lined up since it was part of the contract, and they wanted me to hide you."

"That's fine I understand why they ask you to hide me, not just for my privacy but for your image too. Since you just started and are still working on your name. Duke, don't think too much; we can work it out okay."

"Fine, babe, if you say so. By the way, can you come with me, babe? I have something for you."

"Sure, where are we going?"

"Trust me, babe." We make sure no one sees us sneaking out of the prom venue.

"Hey!" We saw the guard, Duke, hold my hand tight.

"Run, babe." We run and hide in a stairwell. Duke, look to see if the guard has left before we head to the music room.

"Are you okay, babe?" He said, "Copy my cheeks. I nodded at him, and we stared into each other's eyes. He shakes his head and taps his pocket.

"Well, you know next week I will leave, right, love? And I don't want to leave without giving this to you; when I saw this, you were the first one who came to mind." He went to my back and put the necklace on me. It was an infinite necklace with a small letter 'O' in between the cross lines of the infinite.

"Babe, you don't need to buy this for me. You should save money. We both know your dad's attitude towards you." He didn't answer me, but I was shocked when his lips touched mine. I can't help but fall into it.

I was loving my first kiss with the guy I love not just in the present but also the guy I will love in the future. I close my eyes and feel the moment we share. The way his lips moved gently caressing mine, I wrapped my hands around his nape while he was pulling me closer to him. The way his tongue moved around my mouth, I was breathless at the moment. Catching my breath from him, he carried me and put me on the desk.

Duke let go of the kiss. That was the most breathtaking moment we shared since we became a couple six months ago.

End of Flashback

"But love, there was no one in that room except us; we knew that all of the students were at the venue at that time. So I don't know how someone could have caught us on camera with that. Sorry, love promise, I don't know anything about that. I'm telling the truth."

Kiel didn't talk, but instead, he hugged me tight and tapped my back.

"I believe you love me; I'm sorry if I'm ignoring you. I just felt jealous seeing you kiss that guy. I was supposed to be the only one you should kiss, and no one else. Those lips belong to me; you belong to me." He slowlHeame closer to mine while I was distancing myself, I was locked in his arms on the couch. I can see it in his eyes. He brushes my hair, and the next thing I know, I'm wrapping my hand around his nape while we look into each other's eyes before we close our eyes and feel the moment we are having.

"Now, I erase all the kisses that weren't mine. Those lips are mine now." He bit my lower lips and kissed me deeply, putting his hand on my back.

"I love you, love." He said it in between our kisses. This guy knows how to make me flustered with his choice of words. I may be a girl who loves hearing affirmation from her partner. I know doing this will shock him, so instead of answering him, I kiss him and wink at him.

He whispered to me.

"Don't wink, love, or else I won't control myself and make you the mother of my kids out of this situation." I realized when he said that, in our situation, he was on top of me with his hand on my back. One wrong move, and he can freely unhook my bralette. I chuckled and winked at him to tease him more. I should regret what I just did. He unhooked my bralette and kissed my neck.

"I told you, don't wink at me." He licked my neck and kissed down to my cleavage. I moaned in between his kisses on top of my breast. He removed his top while kissing my lips torridly; are we going to do it now? My knees were shaking, and my heartbeat skipped like I was losing all the oxygen I had in my body.

Even all the blood circulating in my body comes to my heart to start it pumping. I was breathless with every move he was making; he was gently massaging my legs while his other hand was massaging my breast.

"Shit, ugh, love." I moaned, took his lips, and kissed them. We changed positions, and I was on top of him while moving my hips and holding my hair.

"Your freaking hot love." He said this while holding my waist for support. He sits and kisses my breast as I remove my shirt. I'm half-naked in front of him. He gently licked my nipple like he was playing with it. He was looking into my eyes while licking my nipple. He inserted his other hand in my underwear and played with my clitoris.

"Fuck love, suck my boobs." He shifted, sucking my boobs, and when he was not satisfied, he held my boobs and licked them, sucking them. We were in that position when my door opened.
