Chapter FiftyDesiree“Micheal!” I called out.I couldn't believe my eyes, how was he in Chicago???I noticed Killian seems quite unbothered which was concerning.Micheal walked up to where we were seated and greeted.“This is such a surprise!” Micheal exclaimed.“Oh my goodness Micheal this is a surprise indeed!” I stood up and pulled him into a hug .More like a side hug!!Killian was at this time concerned because I noticed he gripped his knife pretty too hard.“Hi” Michael greeted Killian .“Hi Michael!” Killian replied downing his glass of wine .I decided to take the initiative of introducing them to each other.“Killian this is Michael my old time friend and Micheal this is…“I'm Killian, her boyfriend!”What???Michael's face lit up immediately.“I'm so happy for you Desiree, you two sure do look good together, he's so lucky to have you!” Killian's head shot up immediately, his jaws tensed up.“Yeah she is!” Killian voiced.I didn't know what was happening but it definitely w
Chapter Fifty-OneKillianI don't know which one was my favourite part; looking at her beautiful face when she was asleep or teasing her and seeing her turn red…I watched as she slept on my chest, my breathing regulating with hers.I wish I could tell her how Beautiful she is even in her dreams. I planted a soft kiss on her lips as she slept. I just couldn't get enough of her.My eyes fell on the pendant around her neck, it suits her so well and I knew I made the right choice.“When did you get your tattoos?” Desiree curiously asked as her hands lingered on my tattoos, as always.“I got this one on my arm when I was 12!”.Her eyes shot up in shock..“Twelve?” “Was I too young or was I too old for one?”“And your parents allowed you?” “I'm just pulling your legs. I got it on my 30th birthday!” She sighed in relief and continued tracing the lines in my tattoo.“What about the second one? On your lower back??” She asked.“Do you really want to know?” “Yes I do!”..“I got it after I
Chapter Fifty-TwoDesiree…My nose caught something in the air as I woke up from my sleep. I looked at my alarm and noticed that I had overslept, but the alarm was turned off. I guessed Killian must have turned it off.But whatever was going on my nose couldn't resist the sweet smell that was in the air. I got off bed and disappeared into the bathroom to freshen up I looked like a hot mess, it was rare for my messy morning self to be hot in the morning, but I kept taking glances back at myself in the mirror making sure I was seeing right.Hot showers are the best but I had just been craving cold showers more for a while. I ran the shower and drenched myself.After twenty minutes in the shower I headed out to get dressed and I decided to put on something casual.As I got out from my room I could hear some movements in the kitchen I just knew already killian was the one in the kitchen There were a billion things I didn't know about Killian I was sure of that,!!“Tell me one more thin
Chapter Fifty - ThreeKillianThere was honestly nothing that was fascinating about that Micheal dude, and for no reason he just icks me, no matter how much I thought about it ..She was eventually fine with the calm and I was already serving the food.“That was ..“Stop it, you don't owe me any of that, he's your friend I get it!” I stopped her as she was about to explain her phone calls to me.I knew he was her friend and I knew so well she was going to keep it at that …It was just the Micheal dude that I didn't trust at all..“Why?” She asked me…“Because I trust you!” I replied and kissed her forehead.I resumed serving the dishes and putting the rest in the freezer…“Let me help with this!” She offered and carried the leftovers into the freezer..“You can take some home. I can't eat all of these even in a week!” She chucked.“I made them for you, not me!”“Oh so you prefer takeouts to cooking?” “I don't eat anything that isn't prepared by me!” I responded…I knew what was comin
Chapter Fifty-FourDesiree“Tell me you didn't tell him already?” Lois warned through the phone as I filled her in on the little time I and Killian spent together.“No I didn't, besides I don't think he feels the same way!”It had been two days since Killian left and I had never missed him more. He didn't sleep another night that day. He made the meal we made. He had work and he kept fantasising about his work and how much he needed to be there.I mean it was a Monday morning to behoñd and there I was seated and chatting with my bestie.“What makes you think so?” Lois was on off for a whole week and she had decided to spend the whole week with me.“He's not saying anything, I mean he acts like it but he hasn't told me anything yet he only teases me about him taking me to meet his parents!”. I explained taking another scoop of the homemade ice cream Killian made for me before he left“Maybe he's just taking his time, you said he acted a certain way when you asked him about his first
Chapter Fifty-five KillianI drove out of view as I watched her wave me goodbye. There was nothing more soothing than seeing her smile before I left.My ride home was silent and I found myself placing my hand on the seat where Desiree always seats on.I wanted to tell her how much I love her but I wasn't too sure of how she felt especially with the amount of times she had wished she never met me, maybe if I just calmed down I could decide well.I didn't want me confessing my love to her to put her under the pressure to be with me, just because I tell her I love her.I parked my car into the house and got to work immediately. I was done resting for just half an hour. I picked up my laptop and started work.Alex was still off work but he called me from time to time just to check up on me and all which I really appreciate a lot.“Work is your first love!” Desiree accused me after I had repeatedly fantasised about work.I mean I love to keep things in order, no pile up of emails or unsee
Chapter Fifty-SixKillianI sat there with my jaw to the floor literally. Of all the surprises I could expect on a Monday morning this wasn't even on my list.“Raphael!” I managed to say looking at that tall Gallant man in front of me just smirking.If you are looking for where I got my smirking attitude from, I got it from Raphael.Raphael is my brother, I stood up after being held down by shock for a whole minute.I pulled him into a hug and I just wanted to tear up so bad.“I can't explain how much I have missed you kid bro!” He said embracing me with so much love.Before we knew it we both started tearing up.The last time I saw Raphael was when I was 30 now that I was about to clock thirty five. He showed up and I was so happy.Every feature he had in him was what I took and multiplied for me.He has a defined jaw structure, brown eyes and jet black hair plus he had little freckles across the bridges of his nose.Yes controversial but the freckles actually made him look more unre
Chapter Fifty -Seven Desiree My legs crossed and uncrossed each other with the taste of the food I was experiencing in my mouth.It tasted exactly like takeouts but even more than takeouts. I decided to keep some in the fridge until I was hungry for later. I was filled up already this Monday.I picked up my phone and texted Killian. After a while.I didn't know how to start the text, do I say hey babe, or how are you or happy Monday or I should just go straight to the point.I decided to greet first.“Hi!” .The message didn't get ready immediately but it got delivered.Monday mornings when I still worked at the hotel, I was always grumpy for no reason, it felt like I had no real enough time to rest. The weekend seemed too short and Monday just took it all away.But there I was at home just devoured takeouts and ice cream, one would have thought this life of doing absolutely nothing us great.But that was a huge problem for me. I didn't want to stop been busy Sometimes I could rela
