Chapter 19 I must be going insane
Chapter nineteen
Dave
My eyes went wider and my heartbeat accelerated. Exactly what I've been trying to confirm with Jones over and over again.
Well, I had no plan to kiss her in the room earlier. I didn't even know she's suffering from night blindness. And I have no idea why I even kissed her. I must suddenly be going crazy.
I mean my body is suddenly reacting to what it is not supposed to be reacting to.
I can't even comprehend it. How can a kiss make me feel so much like this? I wanted more, amazing and yet stunning. I kissed Evelyn earlier and I didn't feel anything like this. I mean why does kissing Jones feel like I've never been kissed.
We went still, together for some seconds. In the short silence that passed by, I gave her a little scrutiny. She's light in complexion as I am with a straight face, curved brows that fit the brown eyes iris. When she blinked her eyes, it seemed to make her look like a model, with extraordinarily long lashes that were very dark and curvy. Her lips are soft and light pink. She doesn't have a dimple but her curved mouth seems to hold something to it. You can say she's beautiful even though I'm still finding it hard to conclude that.
"What the fuck is this!" She yells and rolls off me.
I couldn't help but smile before getting up. She looks at me again, very much angry now, "What's so funny Mr man?"
I shrug, "I mean you wanted to kill me for something and now you've done it. Should I kill you instead, "I joke, and somehow, it seemed like her mouth curved into a nice smile but it all disappeared as it had come. This girl is incredible.
"Is kissing your specialty?" She asked sarcastically.
Well, kissing isn't. And I haven't been kissing for a while. I mean after Cynthia left me, I've not dated much. I just tend to have fun and according to me, kissing isn't part of having fun. I look at Jones, "Kissing isn't something that should get you so worked out. It's nothing, "I lie. I mean I'm not ready to start accepting the fact that kissing her stirred something in me.
She gathers some wrinkles and stares up at me, "You can't just go around kissing someone just because it's nothing to you. Do I look like I'm in for some kissing booth? "her voice softens but the anger is still evident in it.
I gaze at her much longer and it suddenly dawns on me, "Wait, that was your first kiss? The second and the third? you've got to be kidding me. I can't believe that even though Jones' face gives it all away, "Wait then, you must be a virgin, "even the word sounds so weird in my mouth.
She looks away and blushes with great humiliation, "Fine Dave Margray! I don't even want to see your stinking and stupid face ever, "she says and starts towards the door.
I laugh briefly before turning to look at her, "Wait, where are you going to?"
"My house, of course, you this fool," she didn't look back at me and I suddenly realized that she wasn't even wearing any shoes. I laugh, "Do you even know the fucking time? It's one in the morning"
"If I die because I'm going back to my house tonight, then I will hunt you down for the rest of my life," she swore, half angry. I laugh again and open my mouth to tell her she's bare feet but she's already walking out of the room.
What kind of a woman doesn't even know she's not wearing footwear? Well, Jones kind of woman. Well, I'm still finding it hard to believe Jones is a virgin and her first kiss was actually with me. I don't even know what to expect. She's twenty-seven for crying out loud.
I pull out my phone from my side pocket and dial Steven's number, "Hi Steven. I need you to spy on Jones and make sure she arrived safely at her house, "I say and hang up. I don't believe in her little ghost adventure but I want to keep her safe somehow.
I sigh at my sudden behavior. I seem so miserable right now.
Jones
I suddenly feel so upset now, like I'm boiling inside. I mean why would he kiss me only to say it's fun to him. Must he go around playing with someone? I don't ever want to see him again, ever.
I walk outside and look around me, fearfully. I can't even start walking because I'm scared of the dark. But I know I would die anyway if I stayed one more minute at Dave's place.
I can't deny the way my body felt when he kissed me. Yeah, he's right. It is my first kiss, and my second and my third. Maybe that's what kisses are meant to feel like. Tingle and make you want some more or do crazy things like couples do. I mean well, you aren't supposed to kiss someone you don't love right? Some do actually, the likes of Michael. I've always prayed to be kissed by someone that loves me but I guess that's a no because I've just been kissed by someone that takes me for fun. I smile typically thinking about doing it with Michael.
I don't just believe Dave ruined my first kiss, my second and third. The way I'm feeling is so unexplainable. I could kill him for this.
After some minutes of staying in front of Dave's house, a car stops before me and I hop in. You know most times, I do feel sad and very much miserable for having this kind of defect. Even though I'm skilled in judo and karate, I will always be helpless in the dark.
The car stops in front of my house and I pay him before getting down, thanks to the fact that I always leave money in my jean pockets in case of emergency, not expecting this one anyways.
Wait a minute! Why do my feet feel so cold?
