5 | FACING MY FEAR
▪︎ ▪︎ ▪︎
▪︎ ▪︎ ▪︎
EDWARD'S POV:
After the breakfast, we both sat on the couch scrolling through our phones. Suddenly, my legs started paining. I put my legs on her lap and kept my head on the other side of the couch.
"What-" I cut her off by saying.
"Please my legs are aching after cooking for you, could you massage it a little?" I said expecting her to push my legs away but she didn't
"Fine" she huffed and starting massaging. That's something very new coming from her. Anyway I was enjoying the massage.
"Ow" she suddenly poked my leg with a pin and smirked.
"I knew you would do something like that" saying that I sat up and reached for the pin which she was trying to put away from me but in that process, I didn't realize the proximity between us. I looked her in the eyes. Her blue eyes, her plump lips, I leaned down to.....kiss her?
Our faces were inches away, no not even inches, millimeters away. I could feel her breathe on my lips. As I was about to kiss, she moved her face to the side and I ended up kissing her cheeks.
She pushed me by my chest and smirked. "My revenge on what you did on the day of marriage."
I was so awkward after that so I thought to change the topic. "How about we go out? I'm bored anyways."
"Yes, let's go out but where?" she asked thinking, keeping her finger on her cheek. Cute.
"How about shopping?" I asked.
"Nope, boring." she said.
"An amusement park?"
"Nope"
"Beach?" I asked.
"Nope."
"Bitch?" I asked.
"No wait-..... You idiot, how dare you call me that?" saying that she hit my chest continuously when she was about end on top of me, I held her hand
"We don't want to end up like before now, do we?" I said smirking at her.
"Whatever" she spoke casually but I could see a shade of pink on her cheeks.
"I'll take you somewhere, wear something casual and come in 2 minutes, common you don't have time, go fast," I said laughing at how she hurried to her bedroom.
We both got ready in two minutes and I had a place on my mind. She would definitely like it.
We sat in my car and I drove. She turned on my favourite song.
I got my head out the sunroof
I'm blasting my favorite tunes
I only got one thing on my mind.
We both were singing our hearts out when she said "It would be nice if there was a sunroof in your car."
I instantly opened the roof of the car and she was surprised but she stood up and peeked out of the sunroof.
"Woahh" she shouted.
If it'd been someone else then I would have been embarrassed but she was different. She was so carefree, I never saw her like that. Even in high school, she always used to study and most of the time she was bullied for being a nerd.
To be honest, I was one of the few with whom she talked, I was always down to fight with her and irritate her because I felt like it was the only way she would be a little carefree and get out of her comfort zone.
After a while, we reached the most awaited place. I mean most awaited by me.
AMELIA'S POV:
We reached our destination. I didn't know what was it, so I was excited. As we entered, I saw it.........no.......not that.
He knew I hated heights, that asshole. It's paragliding.
He looked at me controlling his laughter waiting for my reaction. "You are so dead, you knew that I hated heights, then why?" I whined.
"It's okay Amelia nothing will happen, face your fears." He said thinking he was motivating me.
"You asshead, you see I'll put you in a room full of dogs and say 'face your fears'." I said knowing that he was shit scared of dogs.
But he dragged me without waiting for me to agree.
After going there I saw many people going up. As scary as it looked, it looked pretty fun, I mean it was fun to look at, experiencing it sounds very scary.
Edward looked like he was an expert in paragliding. I was nothing in front of him.
The trainers told that they'll be tied with each of us while flying which gave me little relief.
"Hello ma'am, I'll be flying with you today, so don't worry you're safe." He said trying to calm me down and tying the belt around both of us.
EDWARD'S POV:
I felt my blood boiling when I saw that guy tying the belt around her waist and the thought of her flying with another guy just added up to the anger. I told the guy beside me that I'll fly with Amelia and he said it's okay.
I walked to Amelia. "Excuse me, can you please leave her, I'll be flying with her, you don't need to." I said to him coldly.
"Hey, it's okay, he is such a sweet guy. He told I'll be safe with him." she said and I angrily glared at which made her shut her mouth.
"Okay sir, your wish." saying that the trainer opened the belt tied to him and tied it to me and tied Amelia's belt too.
I didn't know why I felt like that. Was it jealousy? No it can't be. There should be love to get jealous. But then what is it? Do I love her? What am I thinking? My stupid brain.
We slowly started going with her basically on my lap, she took my hand pressing it slightly which showed her fear. "It's fine, nothing will happen, just enjoy the view." I reassured her.
After a while, Amelia became comfortable. We both stretched out her hands to feel the fresh air against our body. She shouted, "Wohooo, it feels so good, I feel like a free bird."
"I told you, you will enjoy it." I shouted back.
"Thank you." she said.
After sometime we got down. We removed the belts.
"Thank you for today, it was so worth it." she said hugging me tightly.
I smiled at her gesture and hugged her back. It felt good hugging her. Just when she was about to pull away, I said
"stay like this for 2 more minutes." and she didn't argue.
After that, we strolled around for a while and eventually returned home at night.
Amelia was so tired that she went to her room and without changing her clothes she passed out on the bed.
