*******************
SELENA’S POV
*******************
I have always been a hopeless romantic and I guess it all stems from my fascination with romance novels and movies. The idea of loving someone had always fascinated me and even though I dreamt of falling in love someday, I never imagined that I would fall so hard and deep.
Falling in love with Chris was by chance and in a short while I have come to love him more than life itself and I can give up anything just to be with him, anything at all.
Our relationship was not that of love at first sight, rather we were just good friends that fell in love with one another. The first time I met Chris I didn't care about nor notice anything peculiar about his physical features, to me he was just another boy in school. However, with each passing day and as we began to spend more time together, I started to notice that his lips were full and sensuous and that he had dark eyes that kept me mesmerized and which I found difficult to look away from whenever he locks eyes with me. He wasn't muscular but his lean frame was the sexiest body I had seen before, lanky, and all he intrigued me and made my body go crazy just being near him. He had skin as dark as chocolate. He was simply perfect.
I knew I had fallen in love with him when I started looking forward to being with him and missing him whenever we are apart. I never wanted our discussion to end, I found ways to prolong our interaction and the time spent with each other. Chris was a total package, he was intelligent, athletic, and funny, he made me laugh without trying.
When our mutual and talkative friend Nathan asked us to make out during our study time in the library, I wished the ground would open up and swallow me up. I thought I had been careful in hiding how I felt about Chris but apparently not, I only hoped that no one else had noticed aside Nathan.
However, what got me sad after the incident was Chris's behavior towards me, he started ignoring and avoiding me and wouldn't spend time with me nor would he speak to me even after I confronted him about his behavior.
I felt lost without him, even though we weren't dating then, however, he still meant a lot to me. I tried to talk to him on a few occasions but he brushed me off. Angry, I walked away determined not to talk to him again.
Nathan, our mutual friend, took matters into his own hands, he was the perfect matchmaker as he claimed on different occasions, and though his sense of humor could be worrisome at times. To get me to come over to his place, he made me believe he was unwell and needed my help, when I later arrived at his home, Chris was also there.
I could not stay angry with Chris for a long time. When I saw him, I felt butterflies at the bottom of my stomach. I wanted to rush into his arms and stay there but I had to control myself to stay still and act mature and aloof as if I didn't care about him- even though I was literally dying within me.
Nathan made us see how selfish and childish we were both acting towards each other. “ I hope you guys are not fighting because of what I said the other day.” Nathan looked from me to Chris who was still standing by the door, his hands crossed across his chest, his shirt sleeve folded at the elbow, he was a sight for sore eyes.
Neither of us replied to Nathan's questions even though I stole glances at Chris from time to time.
“I feel so stupid right now, I shouldn't have said what I said at the library, I'm sorry.'' Nathan pleaded, his voice almost cracking as he spoke.
When Chris spoke up, I was surprised at his words. It was not what I expected him to say, I thought he hated me especially with the way he had been acting since but that wasn't the case which was pleasing to me. “Don't be, Nathan. You weren’t wrong with your assumptions, on my part,” he added for obvious clarification, but where I sat I was thrilled but I didn't show it.
I wanted to be asked out on a date by him. Well, nothing of such happened though we spent the whole day with Nathan, we stayed indoors in his room. Nathan's father was a wealthy lawyer and his room had almost all the up to date gadgets, we played games, watched some movies, I would have preferred some romantic movie as I wanted to rewatch ‘Just like heaven’ a rom-com by Mark Ruffalo and Reese Witherspoon but the boys would not let me and we ended up watching action movies, which I surprisingly enjoyed watching with them. It was a fun-filled day; the only downside was not hearing those magic words from Chris.
After Nathan brought us back together, I and Chris continued being just friends. My love for Chris only grew stronger each passing day, and from what he said the other day at Nathan's home I knew he felt the same. I felt so frustrated because he refused to vocalize what he felt, and I could not act on my feelings towards him either. I was a traditional girl and I strongly believed the guy should ask the girl out.
*************
Our first kiss was unexpected but welcomed. We had gone to the beach with some group of friends when Chris suggested that we should go for a walk together and alone. The wind from the sea felt nice as it caressed my bare skin. When he took my hands suddenly, I felt warmth fill my whole body. It felt so right and nice.
Then he stopped and turned to face me, my eyes caught his and I drowned in its beauty when he started speaking to me my eyes went to his lips and my mind flooded with thoughts of him kissing me. I shook my head slightly, willing myself to banish the thoughts that lingered in my mind's eyes.
“ I love you Selena, more than mere words can describe.” Time stood still as I breathed in the scent of his body and acknowledged the words my heart had waited to hear for a long while.
Smiling sheepishly I replied, “I love you too Chris.” I have never meant any word I said more than the five words I just spoke.
I noticed he hesitated a bit before he grabbed me by my waist and drew me closer to him “I want to kiss you so badly.”
“Then what is stopping you?” I managed in a whisper, standing on tiptoe. I leaned closer and our mouths met, it was slow but passionate. When we parted our lips I felt flushed. It wasn't my first kiss but it was my best. My skin tingled with excitement as our bodies locked in a passionate embrace.
“Let's go back to the group, they are probably wondering where we are.” Chris managed to separate our lingering embrace.
“Yes, we should,” I replied excitedly about the reality of what just happened. We had come to the beach as just friends but we are going back home as lovers. The day went well indeed, more than I could have ever imagined.
He was my dream man and I was lucky to have him in my life. They say where your treasure is, your heart lies. Chris was my treasure and I would go to the end of the world for him.
