Without letting another second pass, Jonathan closed their distance as he swiftly pulled Stefani in his arms. Jonathan's heart was filled with overwhelming emotions he couldn't pick what to attend to first. He felt Stefani's body tremble against him as the younger continued to cry and Jonathan, for the first time, became the most impatient person in the world.
He said without a hint of hesitation, "Let's get married."
Stefani, upon feeling the warmth she desperately longed for the past ten years, pulled away from the hug and stared at Jonathan.
Jonathan looked directly into Stefani's eyes, held Stefani's cheeks softly, and gently wiped the tears off her face as he spoke, "Let's get married... not out of obligation, not out of responsibility, not out of order from anybody. I don't care what other people s
The moment Jonathan and Stefani arrived at the Hernandez Mansion, Jane greeted them with a big smile and told them Mr. Hernandez had gone to work.Jonathan quickly went back to his car, with Stefani following behind. "Y-You're not really going to ask my dad about that, right?"Jonathan just looked at Stefani then started the ignition. There wasn't a time Jonathan did not keep his own words, aside from the times he would forget what he did or said before having a high fever. When he said he wanted to marry and live with Stefani, he was sure as hell and would do anything to make it happen. He might not need anyone's opinion about it, but Stefani's dad's approval on this matter was important for Jonathan. At least, he should get permission from Ste
Stefani looked at her right side. Then to her left. Then slowly, she took a long deep breath. Suddenly, the sound of the shower came to her ears and Stefani jumped. For the fifth time!"Stefani, f-focus! Focus on your breathing!" Stefani told herself as she stood by the foot of the bed.Jonathan's bed.Again, the sound of the water from the bathroom made her jump. She could hear how loud her heart was making against her chest and Stefani felt like she would die if she could hear another sound of water near her.After having a deep and seri
Apparently, Stefani's school festival was extended for another week. Thus, the reason why Stefani was quick to leave Jonathan's apartment today and asked Pacholo to drive her off to school. She personally did this as she knew Jonathan was too tired since he had some work to do the entire night before he slept next to Stefani.Because Jonathan was supposed to leave the country, Mr. Hernandez advised him to have some work-related things done at home instead and that he just needed to go to Japan if they needed further people to fix things there.Actually, this was just Mr. Hernandez's way of saying Jonathan should focus on Stefani first. And by saying focus, Jonathan must also attend Stefani's school festival events.
Stefani knew now. Why she hated Jonathan the most was because of that one fact: he was the only person who can make Stefani's heart beat crazily. Simply, Jonathan was Stefani's first love. And most probably, the truest and last, too.Stefani's eyes were cast on Jonathan. The older was also looking back at her, though this time, he no longer had an uninterested face. Jonathan, with eyes full of love and admiration for the same person all the past years, smiled at Stefani.And like a movie, a series of flashbacks came right to Stefani's eyes. It was as if everything happened yesterday and Stefani could still vividly remember herself barging inside her dad's office.
One year laterStefani looked at her right side. Then to her left. Then slowly, she took a long deep breath. Suddenly, the sound of the shower came to her ears and Stefani jumped. For the thousandth time!"Stefani, f-focus! Focus on your breathing!" Stefani told herself as she stood by the foot of the bed.Jonathan and Stefani's bed.It was a king-sized bed that Mr. Hernandez had chosen himself and considered a "gift" along with the whole penthouse they were currently in right now, a yacht, and a villa he bought for the two of them. Not to mention, everything that was inside of each
Months before the wedding.Stefani barged inside Jonathan's room with a frown."Did you have another nightmare?" Jonathan looked at her in concern.Stefani shook her head, still with a frown. "I-I... I don't think I can sleep tonight."Jonathan nodded his head. He already knew after the movie, Stefani would be too scared to sleep on her own."That's why I told you you can sleep here with me," Jonathan said nonchalantly, eyes still in his book. When he heard nothing from the younger, he placed his book down then motioned the younger to come to space next to him.Stefani blushed hard and started yelling. "L-Like I would do that!! You pervert!"
Ari's heart pounded loudly as her back felt the cold brick wall behind her. The four strange bitchy looking girls in high school uniform looked at her in disgust. One girl chewed her gum and mannerlessly spit it out to her right.Are they a gang or what? Ari began to panic."Look here, Miss. That Gonzalez guy is engaged." Ari gasped in shock. Is Jonathan Gonzalez really engaged? With whom?Another girl stepped in and looked at Ari in pity."Pitiful. I bet you've tried seducing Gonzalez a lot of times.. and failed," they all laughed in mockery and Ari's chest twisted in pain."Y-You're wrong! My feelings for him are pure! I-I.. I've always liked Sir Jonathan. Even if he always looks serious but he's approachable and nice," Ari
"Don't move too much," Jonathan ordered to his wife as Stefani gave him her famous death glare. This time, though, the glare became a weak stare. Jonathan placed his hand on Stefani's forehead and sure it was, the younger's fever had risen by another degree celsius.The phone on the bedside table vibrated and Jonathan sighed as he stood up to get the device.While glancing at his sick wife on the bed, the New HE Group CEO answered the phone. "Yes. I'll send it in a few. What? Okay. Tell me the details."Stefani's face was all red from the fever and opened her lips, "Just go..."Jonathan frowned, contemplating what to do. "I can't leave you here in a state like this."Even in her fever, Stefani still managed to get mad, "It's
