Ch- 13

Luis :

The calm demeanour that I possessed flopped out of my hand as soon as I saw that guy hugging Jessy.

It could be jealously in a small proportion but most of it was possessiveness. I just felt a wave of anger rushing inside me urging to me drag that guy away for kissing Jessy without her consent.

But as soon as I felt her getting afraid of me due to my unacceptable angry glares, I couldn't help but regret.

Hence today an idea popped up in my head in hope to appologies to  Jessy. I was taking her on a movie date. I texted her an hour ago to get ready and she replied positively.

I smiled walking outside towards my car thinking about that hug. Her beautiful little body pressed against me. It felt so beautiful beyond imagination.

It took me approximately ten minutes to reach the hotel where Jessy stayed. She came outside in a green bodycon dress which made her more captivating than ever.

She directed her cute smile towards me before wearing the seatbelt. I smiled back and started driving. It was all making me crazier for her.

I kept driving calmly in hope to make Jessy comfortable. She kept gazing outside while I glanced at her in between.

She looked so pretty in the dress while her hair in the ponytail added much to her gorgeousness.

I looked at her hand which was placed on her thigh and gulped as the urge to touch her hand made me drag my hand a little towards hers. But before it could touch, I pulled back my hand as Jessy chirped cheerfully "Look at that Luis. That water fountain looks so good."

I chuckled as her beautiful smile and child like habits got reflected through her curiosity of grinning at the water fountain.

I diverted my focus towards the road and just waited to reach the planned destination.

Jessy:

The mesmerising fountain caught my thunder making me get excited.

I kept gazing outside the window during the entire journey. It was so beautiful to be ignored. And Luis's presence made it more indulging.

I was still thinking about what happened yesterday and neither could I forgot what he said in the morning 'I'm so sorry Jessy. I just couldn't see you being intimate with that guy. Would you like to join me for a movie?'

I smiled and even blushed the moment he proved his possessiveness by saying what he felt when I hugged Cedric.

It took me only ten minutes to get ready when Luis ended the call. Excitement to be around him made me more happier as his company indeed has some positive impacts on my brain. Kate left the room before me as she wanted to be with Michael.

"We are here." Luis said smiling at me. I got out of the car and followed Luis.

The movie started giving me goosebumps already. I've always loved doing adventurous and exciting things and movies was on the top of my list.

The movie was 'If I Stay' which was just the best movie I have ever watched hence I could watch it any number of times but it looked like Luis never saw this one before hence he was so much indulged in looking at the screen.

His handsome features made his sweet disposition shine with glory while his hand resting on the seat gave me an indication that he wanted to hold my hand.

I gulped as I reminisced the moments in the car when he tried to take my hand but was too reluctant to do so. To make him not feel awkward or embarrassed, I shouted about the fountain.

But this time it was clear through his posture that how much he wanted to hold my hand. I blushed knowing how beautiful that feeling of holding hands sounds but it's beyond imagination to articulate how it felt.

I slowly slithered my hand towards his and intertwined my fingers with his while my eyes didn't leave the screen.

I felt Luis's gaze on me as he tightened the grip a little.

It felt so good and the warmth that radiated from the contact made it more mesmerising than ever.

I hope I get the strength to accept goodness and happiness when the time comes.

Luis :

I shifted my head towards the screen after clearing my all doubts while looking at Jessy's face. Her side was looked even more beautiful with the specs on.

But most of all, the feel of our hands together made it hard for me to focus anywhere.

Neither I nor Jessy cared about the movie. The entire time I kept giving a squeeze to her hand while receiving a squeeze from her side in response.

After the movie, we went to have lunch and then decided to part ways.

After reaching home, I couldn't help but wonder about her smile, her way of talking and her beautiful eyes. She indeed betwitched me with her captivating persona.

The next morning I woke up with a jolly mood and reminisced last night. Around 12 my crazy friends walked into my room. I didn't realise it until a creamy and cold thing landed with a thud on my face. I woke up startled and groaned as my vision got blur due to the cake smeared on my face.

I wiped it all until they sang me birthday wishes 'Happy birthday son!'

Then I tackled Michael and pulled his hair while laughing at his face.

The entire night we ate our favourite food, drank and enjoyed like there wasn't a tomorrow. It felt so good.

After that we decided to sleep hence they eent jn their respective rooms while I kept thinking about Jessy.

And during that, an urge to ask out Jessy ingulfed me in a series of conflicts between my heart and brain.

I planned to get into a private place before the birthday party that my friends planned for me and ask her out.

Hope it works. I was finally going to ask out Jessy today. If she says yes ,then my birthday will become the best and the most remarkable day of my life.

"You are not ready yet?! What are you doing standing in front of the mirror?" Michael complained rushing in my room like a crazy duckling.

"I'm almost ready Dad." I chuckled fixing my clothes. Since the last ten minutes I've been standing in front of the mirror thinking about Jessy while I was supposed to get ready for the surprise prepared by Michael and Jordan.

"Yeah son! Very good! Let me call your mother and imform her that tonight I am going to have sex with her and probably give you a good news about your new sibling." Michael mocked.

I grabbed his collar tightly but with no intention to fight. I just wanted to remind him that I didn't like such jokes.

"How dare you? Don't you dare say that again!" I barked angrily.

"Cool down bro! I was talking about Kate. If I am your Dad then my future wife, Kate, will be your mother." I laughed and shook my head leaving his shirt while he made a face frustrated by my bull like behaviour.

"I'm sorry Mickie!" I apologised.

"It's alright! " He smiled and patted me on my shoulder. He walked towards the door and stopped before leaving my room.

"Actually Luis I was talking about your mother only." He laughed loudly and ran away.

"Michael!" I shouted and threw a hairbrush aiming Micahel but it missed as he was already out of my reach. I cooled down and concentrated on practising how to ask out.

Finally I got ready properly and looked at myself in the mirror.

"Are you ready?" Jordan asked entering in my room. He was looking really smart in the blue polo shirt and pants. 

"Yeah!" I nodded and took a last glance at my white shirt and black pants.

"I was talking about something else." He smirked.

"What?" I said wearing my white sneakers.

"About asking out Jessy." I laughed as Jordan paused.

"How do you know? I didn't even tell you." I chuckled as he just smiled.

"We have been friends from ages and I can figure out the things which are in your head." He stated.

"Huh? Telepathy? " I said quizzically with intentions to mock.

"No! Friendship." He replied poliety.

"I'm ready!" I said with full courage to do anything even if it was reckless enough to kill me.

We walked outside and sped off in the masarati. During the entire time, I kept asking the two where we were going and all they did was ignore. Finally they took me to a shop.

"What are we doing here?" I asked.

"Selecting dresses for Kate and Jessy which they will wear tonight." Michael smirked.

"Yeah! And we know how much you will love to see Jessy wearing what you desired." I blushed as they chuckled at my unique preferences.

"Well let's get started then!" Michael roared and hence we started searching through different sections for something catchy.

"I know understand why girls take time to shop. Oh lord! There are so many choices." Michael groaned.

"I just don't have anything left to describe girls mendacity to not get tired of walking here and there to find good clothes." Jordan chuckled while I and Michael complained incessantly.

"You are lucky you don't have to do this." Michael said taking a dress and standing in front of the mirror. Jordan smiled as if there was something else that he wanted to say.

"Jordan can you try this gown and stand next to me? I wanna see how will Kate look standing next to me in this dress." Michael grinned.

Jordan stood up from the chair, where he has been sitting the entire time, and grabbed Michael's neck from behind.

"Can you repeat?" Jordan said taunting Michael's guts. Michael laughed and got rid of Jordan in the blink of an eye.

"Well I'll buy something for my girl too." Jordan said. I and Michael hooted for him.

I again got back to searching for a pretty dress to match Jessy's perfection.

"Done!" Jordan smirked. I looked horrified at him not able to believe that he succeeded so quick.

"How the hel-" Michael stopped midway unable to find words looking at the green dress hanging on Jordan's hand.

"I think you both need to use your brain then maybe you will be able to do the task." He rolled his eyes and walked away.

I grunted my teeth and well in just 2 minutes I found the perfect dress. It was so a red long sleeved gown. The part of it being not exposing any body part. What's supposed to be private should be private. Michael too found a beautiful dress for Kate after many wailings and groans.

We paid and decided to eat something because the tiring work didn't leave much energy in us to shop for us three.

"After this we are heading towards shopping for ourselves then straight home for preparation." I nodded as Jordan commanded.

We followed the plan and after about half an hour we went home back. It took us just ten minutes to shop for us.

I couldn't stop wondering about how would Jessy look in the dress.

We sent the dresses to the girls accompanied with a tailor for size correction.

I was getting more and more excited every passing moment. It was the moment I've been waiting for.

Michael and Jordan ordered me to stay in my room until they continued the preparations downstairs. I was exhilarated to see what will happen.

Oh lord! Bless me!
