"My choice!" I half scoffed. "I wanted to wear it." I defended myself. Deep down, I knew I was acting childish but something inside me was a little peeved.

"Then why aren't you?" He asked me once more and I was quiet.

I wanted to tell him but I couldn't and I knew I was making an issue out of nothing. As childish as I sounded, I wanted to know how he felt about me. I didn't want to be another one of the girls he wined and dined.

"I felt like wearing this." I shrugged my shoulders and clasped my hands tightly. Curse me for starting this conversation.

"But you couldn't wear the one I sent you?" He glanced at me sideways. "Again Brielle, its fine. You don't have to feel guilty about it. I thought you'd like that dress." He was trying his best to not sound detached.

"I am sorry. I'll send it back tomorrow." I told him and he looked baffled for a second. It wasn't like I was ever going to wear that again so it was better to send it back rather than wasting money. His lip curved in a myster

    Please stop!"I'll see you around. If you want to see me, I am available till next week. It's been nice meeting you." She didn't wait for him to answer. He was clenching the fork a bit too tightly."Hey, just ignore her, 'kay?" I placed my hand on top of his and squeezed it lightly, letting him know I was there for him.He bowed his head and a small smile bloomed over his face. When he looked up, it nearly took a breath out of me. My throat tightened with an unknown emotion. I could see his mouth moving but could not hear a word. I was well aware of his deliciously spicy scent that surrounded me, even though he was sitting across the small table. I could feel his body heat burning through his clothes and reaching out to entangle me.This is not good."I need to use... excuse me." I looked around for the restroom."Sure." He answered.I fled to the toilet and stood near the sink. I rested my hands on the cool tiles. What was that? It can't be what I'm thinking. I can't... Don't say it.

    "You know what Zuriel? When I used to be little, I always wanted to be a star. It used to scare the shit out of my parents. It dn't help that I had a friend called Molly for years, who never existed. They signed me up for therapy.""So you were born like this?" He asked me with an amused grin.I looked up then, and stared in awe at the glittering array of stars in the sky. "It's so beautiful." I breathed. "I wish I could just reach out and pluck one out."Zuriel was very silent beside me, and when I looked at him, he too was studying the sky."Love knows not distance; it had no continent; its eyes are for the stars." I murmured."Gilbert Parker." He sounded impressed. I smile widely at him and he held my eyes with his penetrating gaze."I'm glad I met you." He reached out for my empty hand. He brought my palm up to his mouth and placed a kiss in the centre. My skin tingled in response."Me too. Even though you scare the hell out of me sometimes.""What? No I don't." Zuriel scoffed unb

    "Let's get you back, Cinderella." He created distance between us and I instantly felt cold but when his words registered in my mind, I clutched my stomach and laughed."You will be the death of me." I said, after gaining a control of myself.He stiffened and his whole posture changed instantly. His face clouded and I froze. The blood running through my veins turned to ice. Had I said something to ruin this moment? Had I reminded him of Carly? Shit. I swallowed hard and glanced down. Way to ruin the moment!"Don't do that." He jerked his head toward the sky and sighed deeply."Do what?" I asked, confused."You have that look on your face?" He ran a hand through his hair, tilting his head back."What look?""Like I told you to sleep with me," He stared at me steadily, while one corner of his mouth curled upward."Oh come on, I was half asleep that time, I also didn't know what I was doing, that day," I laughed "Really?

I felt like everywhere he touched me, it left a trail of fire. We both were interrupted by a loud ringtone. He groaned in frustration and pulled back. His hands were inside his pocket, searching for the phone. He cursed softly under his breath when the phone kept ringing. I laughed softly and pulled him back to another kiss.

This was the first time I noticed he was concerned about me, and I sat up on my bed, knowing he was the one who placed Oilment and medicinal bandage on my wound."It doesn't hurt much," I told him, expecting to see a glimpse of hope in his eyes that he cares about me.My heart is rushing so quickly as I feel his deep gaze over me, halt at my lips, then my breasts, then return to my eyes."I know you care about me," I told him with a smile.That sweet expression in his eyes transformed back to a cold and harsh one when he understood what I was saying."No, I don't care about you; I only did this because I'm the only one who can damage you; no one else can."
