CHAPTER 6

It was a free day, and they game was fully on. People had started approaching themselves, and whenever someone approached you and you weren't in the game, you had to tell them straight up. Esse had up to three people approach her, but she did let them know she wasn't. Amarachi also got, so did Toyosi. I got like two, but I told them I had someone already. One was from Greenland and the other from The Hills.

After sleeping around four in the morning, due to late night talks with Khalid, I had really obvious eye bags when Tosin woke me up around 6:30 am for our exercise, which I was very close to skipping. I had to explain to everyone why my eyes was so heavy and, they couldn't stop laughing and teasing me about it. And, I knew that I was most likely not going to hear the end of the tease.

I tuned it down with makeup, and that really did help. When I saw Khalid after breakfast, he looked perfect. Like, he hadn't stayed up all night with me. I gave a faint smile when I sighted him at the corner I had seen him the night before. He immediately stood up and came up to me. He spread his arms for a hug, I cracked up a smile, slipping into the hug. My mind immediately whispered to me about how it was our first hug, while my body began to savor every moment with shut eyes. He wall so tall, that my head rested perfecting on his chest, making warmth run through my body. He also smelt so nice - like expensive masculine perfume, making me tighten the hug a little, he felt so comfortable. But, we had to unfortunately part. By the time we parted and I opened my eyes, we both had lots of eyes on us. I sighed, while he slipped his left hand into my right and whispered, "Want to get away?"

I didn't hesitate nodding as quickly as I could. I was happy he could detect that I didn't like the unnecessary attention I was getting. He walked hand in hand with me, while I looked up – trying to look bold, and also not make any eye contact at all. We got into the ground floor lift, while he pressed a room number around the 300th.

"Thank you," I said in a low voice.

He scoffed. "Who's the coward now? Uh?" he asked mockingly.

I chuckled. "Oh please. I'm just not used to an unusual amount of attention," I defended myself.

"If you really want to play this game, you know you'd have to get used to it right?" he asked in a calm tone, making me look up at him. He shrugged.

Not long, the lift stopped, the door dinged and opened. He held my hands once more, leading me to the door by the left. I stopped in my track when I got there. It was - what I presumed, the cinema. It was really big. It was dark, and the 'KB' logo was begin projected on the big screen at the front. It was obvious the suite contained only beauty.

We took the seat close to the door. "So, how was your night?" he asked with a smirk and a smile, as I took the chair close to the walkway and he the one next to it.

I smirked. "I really don't blame you, you know."

He chuckled. "What? What did I say wrong now?" he had a wide smile in.

I chuckled. "But how do you do it though? Uh?" I asked, making him look at me confused, causing me to explain further. "How do manage to still glow, after that sleepless night?"

His mouth formed a 'o' as they spread into a wide smile. "Genes, I guess." He shrugged.

I smiled. "Super lucky you."

He smiled back, and for some unknown reasons, we were looking at each other, staring into our eyes. "Do you know you're really beautiful?" he said in such a calm way, making me smile and my heart race.

I smiled to him as he clamped his hands over my left hand.

His hands were so soft, I feared my nails could mistakenly tear them. They were also warm and addictive. It was like, I didn't want them to leave my hands at all.

Our eyes were still jammed, and he had the most genuine look in his eyes. But every time I wanted to believe him, my heart kept on reminding me of how it was all a game, and I was dragged back into reality. I smiled and nodded back at him.

"I'm serious," he said, giving an even more genuine look.

My mind was telling me he was fooling me, but I couldn't help how I felt as I turned away from his, breaking the eye contact with a blush.

"Come on, look at me," he said in such an alluring way, making me blush harder. "Are you shy?"

I chuckled and shook my head, not trusting my mouth to produce anything sensible. But, before I knew what was going on. One of his hand had unclamped from mine, pulling my face into a warm firm kiss. It sent unexpected shivers down my spine, making my body tingle here and there. Just the way I liked them, unexpected kisses. He applied a little more pressure, before he began to move his lips, prompting me to move mine also. And, before I knew what was going on, we were in a lip lock mess and I had unconsciously made my way to him and was on hip laps. But, we were both engrossed, it was like we had forgotten where we were.

Fortunately for me, my phone rang. Esse was calling me, as they had been looking for me. But instead of telling them where I was, I used that as an excuse and escaped from Khalid. "Err... I'm sorry, but I have to leave." I didn't wait for him to reply as I stood up and left him.

He sighed loud enough for me to ear, as I walked out of the hall. I didn't spare him glance as I left. I rushed and got into the lift, so if he wanted to follow me, I'd escape him. But, it seemed like he hadn't followed. I couldn't stop smiling to myself in the lift.

Silly you.
