Rameen
"Hey Rameen, can you get down here", I heard Jeena's voice from downstairs.
I pulled from Waleed and looked at him, we were in the middle of a make-out session. I was sitting on his lap, my arms were around his neck, while he was holding me by the waist.
" I am gonna throw her out if she keeps interrupting us like this", Waleed said broodingly.
I gave him a quick peck on his cheek and got up from his lap, wondering why Jeena could be calling me? As I walked down the stairs, I saw Jeena pacing in the living room nervously. She looked as if she was
going somewhere out.
"Everything okay?" I asked her.
"Yes, actually no, I don't know", She replied, intertwining her fingers.
I looked at her curiously, I thought she was a confident girl, but looking at her now felt like she was as vulnerable as others.
" What is it?" I asked.
"Well, I met this guy a few days back and he asked me out today, and I don't know why but I am freaking out. I have not been on a date in ages", She replied anxiously.
"It will be okay Jeena, just take deep breaths. You are looking absolutely gorgeous, just try to be yourself", I rubbed my hand on her shoulder, trying to give her a boost.
She looked at me gratefully, then she looked at her watch and sprang in panic.
"I am late, thanks Rameen for helping me calm down. I will leave now", She said, collecting her clutch from the table.
"Have a good time", I said to her and wished her luck.
When I walked back to the bedroom, Waleed was looking at me with his brow arched.
"She is going on a date and was just freaking out", I told him.
" It's unlike her", Waleed replied.
"Maybe she really likes the guy", I said thinking about Jeena's behavior.
Waleed just nodded and called me to him by flicking his finger. I was too eager to continue from where we left. But I remembered I had not fed " Red".
"I need to feed Red", I told him as I left the room and Waleed kept calling after me in frustration.
I came down to the kitchen, put some cat food in the bowl for Red, and walked back to the living room, I called "Red" a few times, meowing a few times. And she came running out of somewhere and leaped into my lap. I picked her up, kissed her head, and gently placed her in front of the bowl.
I watched her as she hungrily ate up all the food from the bowl, I played with her for some time. She then ran away, I walked back to the kitchen and washed and put the bowl back into the cabinet, beside the cat food.
I felt his breath on my neck, a shiver ran down my spine and it's intensity only increased when he sucked on my neck and bit it gently.
"Waleed", I whispered his name as I bent my head and gave him more access, sliding my arm around his neck, and tugging at his hairs, as he continued his sweet torture on my body.
"I love you", He said leaving a trail of kisses along my neck.
My heart leaped in my chest, this was the first time he had said the " L" word. And I knew he meant it. "I love you so much, baby", He whispered in my ear as he bit my ear lobe.
"Waleed, I-I", I didn't know what to say, I was still not sure of my feelings.
"I know baby, you still have not figured out your feelings, but trust me, I don't want to push you. I want you to take your time and find it out yourself", He said, stroking my neck with his nose.
I wanted to say to him that I loved him, confess that I had really fallen for him, my subconscious was laughing at me, how proudly I used to say that I didn't believe in love and that I would never fall in love with
anyone. And now here I was standing in the arms of the man I had despised more than anyone a few months ago and was hopelessly in love with him.
I had fallen in love with Waleed Kamal, the control freak and arrogant CEO. I wanted to tell him, but I
don't know what held me back. If only I could have told him, how much I loved him our life would have been
simple.
