Alex suddenly pulled her and made her sit on his lap, positioning her knees so that she straddled him. Abi felt her pulse quicken as she looked down at his oh-so-gorgeous face.
He grabbed her chin and stared at her lips.
”I hope you're ready, Abigail,” he told her and Abi subconsciously swallowed. His deep, coal black eyes lured her in again like a black hole but Abi persisted and broke away from the force of his stare.
”How about my request? I will ask you to pay your debt as well,” she rebutted and just like that, his rhythm broke. A throaty chuckle left his lips as he looked at her with amusement.
”Not bad, little lamb. So? What's your silly request this time?” he arched his gorgeous brow and Abi blinked at him.
”I… I will tell you once we're home,” she answered and the man's smirk slowly faded. His face became calm as he caressed her lips with his thumb.
”Little lamb…” he uttered, without looking into her eyes. ”What should a good girlfriend do when her boyfriend returns home after a trip away?” he asked, still lightly caressing her lower lip. She couldn't see the usual mischief in his eyes this time.
Abi stared at him for a long while. She remembered how she kept missing him since yesterday and seeing his face now and being able to hold him made her feel like the void in her life had been fulfilled. She couldn't explain it but when he was gone, she couldn't stop looking for him.
Abi's eyes were suddenly filled with mixed emotions as she stared at him. The next moment, she moved and landed a kiss on his cheek. It was only a peck but it was filled with so much emotion that Alex felt his body freeze for a moment.
When she pulled away, she placed her hands on his cheeks and made him look up at her.
”I missed you, Alex,” she uttered and then she hugged him. Her voice was incredibly raw and filled with something the man never expected.
Alexander was speechless. He didn't know why but he was affected by those words, by that look in her eyes and by the simple peck she gave him. How did every little ordinary thing she did just become this extraordinary? Alex took a while to snap out of the spell she casted on him.
He struggled to put on his usual smirk. ”Abigail… you're stingy… you actually just gave me a peck? A good girlfriend usually gives more than just a peck, you know?” he whispered in her ear and Abi pulled away.
”More?”
He nodded sexily. ”Mm. Like a kiss… right here.” He took her hand and placed her finger on his lips.
Abi felt like a spark just flew the instant she touched his lips. These were the lips that she kissed that day. The thought of him asking her to give him a kiss on his lips made her heart skip a beat.
