Chapter Sixteen The Kiss.

Zawadi gasped when Lucas captured her lips with his. The kiss was gentle, drawing everything from her. He tugged her closer to him, deepening the kiss.

His mouth suddenly grew hungry on hers, he bit her lower lip making her moan. He took that as an opportunity to slide his tongue inside her mouth.

Her lips were soft, more than her had thought them to be. Under his, her lips grew swollen and softened.

Oh, her taste. It was way better than anything here had ever tasted, she tasted better than wine and sweeter than honey.

She let out a low moan when he nibbled at her already swollen bottom lip.

Needing to catch her breath, she drew back. Leaning her forehead against his, with her way closed and a smile on her lips.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face in his chest. Blushing furiously.

"Cupcake? " he drew her back to study her face. But still she avoided eye contact ." Look at me" He places his fingers under her chin to lift her head.

She finally looked up at him, a blush coating her beautiful face.

He chuckled then said "Don't tell me you are embarrassed. I know I'm a good kisser and all but that was great. And I know it's the best kiss you have ever had "He kissed her blush.

"It's was really good. A great first kiss "She said into his neck.

"I had to, Miss Mwamba, after all I promised you a special first kiss." she laughed at that.

"It indeed was special". she giggled.

"I'm so happy that finally you are my girlfriend. I promise I won't ever hurt you. I promise to be there for you always... " He was cut short by her laughter.

"You make it feel like a wedding. We've only just started dating, and you promised that well take it slow so, I trust you".

"That's good to hear. Come let's watch a movie"

"Your pick, love" he said.

"Anything romantic comedy"she shrugged.

"I have just the one"he scrolled through the TV and settled on one.

She didn't even get the name of the movie. All that while she had been watching him. Not paying attention to what you were saying.

"You there cupcake? " his voice interrupted her train of thoughts.

She looked up and found him staring amusedly at her. With a smile on his lips.

"huh?" she questioned.

He just chuckled and moved her closer to him. Then heading started playing the movie.

She liked romance, yes but everytime she had watched a romantic movie, she had found herself cry. She wasn't good at handling extreme emotions, whether in real life of when watching a movie.

After about twenty minutes, a heated scene came up. The couple on the screen were kissing, passionately, and it reminded her of the kiss she had shared with Lucas.

Butting her lower lip, she looked at Lucas, whose eyes were still glued to the screen. With a blush coating her cheeks, she moved closer to him.

His mind wasn't on the screen as Zawadi had thought though, he too was thinking of their kiss. It had been magical. The taste of her that almost drove him crazy, still lingered on his lips.

And she was his, he was sure that he would get another kiss soon.

He noticed her blush when the couple on the screen were making out. He knew that she was reminiscing about their kiss, and that itself filled him with pride.

Somewhere in the middle of the movie, she started yawning. She looked tired, but she was fighting it. Lucas placed her head on his chest, and after a few minutes, she was asleep.

She looked so beautiful, even in her sleep. Like an angel. She was so small, almost a pile of nothing, his pile of nothing.

She looked like a model. Her body was perfectly curved, her legs long and slender. Her long eyelashes, laying on her cheeks.

He ran his fingers over her cheek lightly and she stirred in her sleep. Her skin was so soft under his fingers he was afraid he'll would break her.

He switched off the TV, the picked her up in his arms, then headed to his room and gently placed her on his bed.

He covered her with a warm blanket then he moved to his side and got under the covers .

He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her to him. He placed a kiss on her forehead then closed his eyes and fell asleep.

"Get up cupcake, you are going to be late for work " Lucas gently shook Zawadi.

"No, let me sleep. " she moaned.

"Come on cupcake, you'll be late " He whispered in her ear, making her shoot up from the bed.

"Where am I?" she asked still rubbing her eyes.

"You are in my house, baby. In my room, and in my bed. " He grinned at her.

"Did I fall asleep on the couch while watching the movie?" she asked.

"Yes cupcake" He said, his grin still plastered on his face.

"Why didn't you wake me up? " she asked.

"You looked so peaceful and I didn't want to wake you up. Plus, I didn't want you to go. You've just become my girlfriend. I want to spend more time with you. "

How could she stay mad at him for that. For showing him that he wanted her, that he loved her company, that he craved her presence.

She simply couldn't.

"I'm going to shower, you can use the other bathroom in the guest room, or.... "He trailed off.

"Or what? " she asked innocently

"Or, we could save water and shower together" He wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.

She gasped, then threw a pillow his way.

He chuckled then disappeared into the bathroom.

She got up after him, and went to the guest bathroom. Then she stripped out of her clothes and entered the shower.

It was only after her shower that she realized that she had no clothes to change into. She wrapped a towel around her body and went into the room.

She stopped in her tracks when she saw Lucas in the room, a smirk plastered on his handsome face.

"Looking good love"he remarked with a smirk, making her grip the towel tighter, her heart beat already picking up.
