Back to Jess Pov

I yawned as I leaned on the bus seat. The trip had ended and we were all going back to the school. It was the same bus, same seat that I was seating.

Except one things had changed.

It was my feelings for Ty.

My feeling for Ty became much stronger than ever. After the whole confession thing 2 days ago, I can't control my actions around him anymore. Every little things between us seams more tense and different. I just couldn't make my heart used to his touch. My body seamed much calmer, but my heart . . . it never stopes racing when Ty was around . . .

I watched Ty talking with Ms. Minter about the science project. The bus was driving and Ty and Ms. Mister were having a conversation all this time. I guess it was probably about exam or an important project.

I noticed my phone buzzing. It was from Inspecteor Ian. The students were seating on the bus as well so I couldn't talk to him in the phone. So I opened the message box and began to write to Inspector Ian.

I closed the phone and sighed. I has to make the imposter talk in order to find the real culprit.

I sighed as I leaned on the seat. I looked front and saw Ty still talking to Ms. Mister. This time, it seamed like he was having an argument with him again.

Honestly, weren't they planning about exam or assignemnts? But still . . .

I watched Ty and Ms. Mister. It felt uncomfortable see how she looked st Ty sometimes.

But well, I trust Ty. He won't ever do anything to caugh mess for both of us, neighter he would ever hurt me . . .

I noticed Ty fumed in anger as he got off the teachers seat and made his way towards my seat.

What? Again?

Ty made his way towards me and then sat beside me. He looked pissed as Ms. Minter turned away and put  blanket on herself and leaned on her seat to sleep.

I looked at Ty in confusion. What did he did this time?

Most of the students were sleeping or were in their phones.

Ty leaned on his seat and slowly I noticed his facial expression changed into happiness. He turned to me and smiled.

I looked at him and suddenly the memories of his birthday night popped into my head.

I turned around and looked a true window and to outside. I couldn't even face him. It was embarrasing.

I noticed him taking his blanket and putting it on him. I did turned to him though.

Suddenly, I remembered what was his second wish and blushed. The way his lips lips felt aganist mine . . .

I touched my lips.

It was like I could still feel the sensation of his warm lips.

I suddenly gasped as I felt Ty twirling my fingers with his. I tried to pull away from him, still looking outside the window. I didn't know how to face him.

Not yet.

It was way too embarassing. Especially after the kiss.

My, no, our . . . very first kiss . . .

I felt him leaning near my ear. The students were too busy with phone and sleeping so nobody noticed us.

"Relax Jess," I heard Ty's sweet voice in my ears. The vive of this closeness was sending shiver down my spine. "It just me."

Well, it is you that's why I can't stop my stupid heart race!

Stupid Ty!

I felt his hand holding mine. I gasped and looked at him and blushed. I can't even look at him.

I wanted to pull away and look away, but he used his fingers to held my chin. My face was flushed when he tilted my head to face him.

"Ty . . ." I whispered. I wasn't feeling uncomfortable, but I just wanted to curl into a ball and hide from him. My body was reacting way too much to his simple touches that I couldn't bear.

"At last, I get to see you," he smiled.

"Huh?" I was confused.

We were in the trip for 3 whole days? So, didn't he see me that time? Except maybe that the whole time, I spend on ignoring him.

Well, it wasn't my fault.

Ty messed up everything with that stupid kiss.

Stupid and . . .

Soft, tender . . . kiss . . .

My face flushed more as I realized what I was thinking. I slapped myself in my mind.

Idiot Jess!

I scolded myself.

How could I ever think such embarrasing things?!

"Jess," Ty said softly, making me away from my own thoughts.

I looked at his beautiful blue eyes. It seamed like a vast ocean. His eyes always made me so calm . . .

"Relax," I heard Ty whispered. His fingers teaching my cheeks.

I nodded slowly.

Ty smiled and leaned back on his seat. I watched him pulling the blanket over our hands where he was holding my hand.

I smiled at I notice how gently he was holding my hand.

I turned around and face the window again. I felt him leaning aganist my arm, resting his head on my neck.

My toes curled as I bit my lips. it was hard to stay calm when Ty was being so close to me.

I didn't do anything. I kept looking at the window. I watched the moon and the starts. I didn't realize the time as I kept watching the beautiful scenario.

'Subhan Allah,' I muttered. "Allah created everything so beautifully. He is the greatest and the most powerful.'

I kept watching the beautiful moon.

I heard a quiet mubbling sound. I turned around and noticed all the students sleeping. I looked at Ty. I noticed him sleeping but he was smiling in his sleep.

I wonder why he was smiling.

What was he dreaming? Was it a good dream?

I couldn't help but to lean on my chair and face him, watching his peaceful sleep face.

Ty was mubbling something. I used my another hand to brush his hair away from his eyes a bit.

I leaned a bit closer when I heard him whisper, "Love . . . so much . . . Jess."

I smiled.

Ty was dreaming about me? About us?

My heart was racing but I just wanted to watch Ty like this. If he was wake then he would have already made excuse or made something sadistic. But now that he was sleeping, he seamed so carefree and relax.

I never thought it felt this good to be just beside him, watching him sleep . . .

Ty looked adorable, almost like the child self of him that I spent my childhood with.

Who knew that my childhood friend would one day be my life partner?

But I was glad.

Even though our marriage started with money but I am beginning to treasure this marriage.

I slowly leaned near Ty. I turned around to see if anybody was looking, when nobody was looking, I leaned down and press a soft kiss on his forehead.

I pulled away slowly and noticed him, smiling in his sleep. I wondered if he understood that I kissed his forehead.

I leaned on my seat and watched him pulling the blanket closer to him. It was a site to see.

Who knew the strict, scarry, teacher had a soft, tender side like this.

But now the problem was . . .

I sighed. I can't sleep.

Being this close to Ty . . .

I was sure, I won't sleep for the entire night. It won't work.

I have to find something better to do.

Suddenly, I got an idea.

I took out a temporary red marker from my pocket. I looked at Ty and smirked and began to do what I wanted to do.

Mr. Tyran Ishfaq, today, you will regret sleeping beside me.
