Chapter 33 Chapter 33 - My First Kiss

"And no man will persevere with a child like me.
My mother used to say, I will know I love the person when I am electrified by his kiss. Not literally the electricity.
Is that how my whole body will feel with voltage. Up to the very end.
That very first kiss would be metaphysical. A magical kiss!
You? Have you ever felt that voltage? Or every time you kiss different women, you are electrified?" I unexpectedly asked him.
"So, you are relying on what your mom told you.
The so-called "electricity of the first kiss". Do you want to feel that voltage?" Nikolai gazed at me.
"Perhaps every woman wants to feel such an exceptional moment." And I can even imagine someone kissing me.
Nikolai abruptly locked me in his arms. He focused his hand on the wall I was leaning against.
He clasped one hand around my neck and then lifted it slightly.
He has not done anything yet but my whole body is being electrified over and over again.
I feel like he can hear my heart palpitation.
I stroked my chest. I feel like my heart will lunge.
"Close your eyes!" He uttered a command.
His aromatic breath hits my face. And soon, he pertained his lips to my lips as I closed my eyes.
"Eve!" We heard Ella call my name.
I unexpectedly dragged him. But Nikolai leveled up the previous event.
I felt his lips move as he claimed my lips. I could sense his saliva transported to my lips.
"Eve!" and Ella again call my name.
Nikolai parted his lips from mine. But suddenly he smooched me again.
"Oh! Wow!" When Ella appeared in the master's bedroom.
I know my face is blushing with the warming effect of Nikolai's kiss.
And I cannot move. Not even able to speak any word.
"Is it hot in here, Eve? You are blushing!" Ella approached me.
I was caught on my lips. Then I unawares hiccuped.
I snagged a glimpse of Nikolai who was grinning.
He even bit his lips.
"Why do you hiccup again. That last moment it transpired to you was when you first met... " I pulled Ella.
"Let us go!" I told her.
"First met, who?" Nikolai begged Ella.
"When she first met you!" Ella answered back.
Oh my gosh! I felt higher voltage because of that kiss.
There is no single doubt! I love Nikolai!
Yes, I love him!
"Are you alright?" Ella implored.
"Of course, I am alright!" My quick answer.
"You have been smiling since a while ago. Your smiles are indestructible. Do you have a pictorial today?
Move on, Eve! This is your house! No mixed hoaxes!" And Ella held my hand.
I bobbed.
"Take a look at the kitchen. You love to cook, right? There are appliances here already. You can cook right away after you move in." Nikolai announced.
My heart abruptly trembled when I heard him speak.
Ella yanked me up again and held me up to the kitchen.
I lost my attention at the new house. I am feeling a cloud nine!
Nikolai reached for my hand and heaved me closer to the stove.
"You can bake here." He said while holding my hand.
I glanced at him. He suddenly put his arm around my waist and grabbed me closer to him.
Then he smooched me on the forehead.
"It is like a house blessing for the newlyweds!" Nathan's teasing.
"Sir Nathan, no, you misinterpret the situation!" I separated from Nikolai.
"You are calling our CEO by his name. So, you should do the same to me.
My girlfriend is your best friend. And you are also my friend's girlfriend.
So just call me Nathan." He had a long litany.
"Hey Eve, why are you so secretive and not telling me the truth." Ella pouted.
"No, no, Ella! It is nothing!" I moved away from Nikolai.
I do not want to assume! Nikolai just smiled from the commotions.
He also explained nor confirmed anything.
He kissed me but he did not say anything about it.
I will just enjoy this eternity. Another cherished moment in my life.
My first kiss ever! This was not just for fun. That kiss would be a treasure for me.
And when we left the house Nikolai held my hand until we could get in Nathan's car.
His hand fits perfectly with mine.
I want to hold his hand forever!
Today, we successfully moved to the new house.
It is hard to settle things together but if you are glad, it will be easier to do.
"It is a palace! I am a real princess now, Mommy!" Nicks uttered.
This is the first time Nicks entered the new house.
We giggled.
"You are a princess in your little ways. Even though we were still in our old place." I was still holding her hand.
"Do you like it, Nicks?" Nikolai asked.
"Yes, Uncle, I like it and I am as happy as Larry," Nicks responded quickly.
I was surprised when Nicks unexpectedly nuzzled Nikolai.
"Let us check your room." Said, Nikolai.
And Nicks held him. Nikolai is very much involved in our life.
See, he has a lot of time to help us even though I know he is occupied.
About the kiss? We have not talked about that yet.
It seemed natural for Nikolai to hold my hand.
He glances at me like I am the most beautiful woman in his world.
He stares at me as if memorizing all my actions and sketching them in his memory.
I followed them upstairs.
"She likes it!" Nikolai said after seeing me.
Nicks was already lying on the bed and holding a book.
"Feel at home, pretty little princess," I told looking at my daughter.
"Nicks!" I let out.
Nicks suddenly turned around.
"Oh, Baby, I am referring to Uncle Nikolai." I smiled at her.
"We are both named Nicks. Why don't you call Uncle Nicks, Nicks, and me Nicka?" her bright suggestion.
"Do you like the name Nicka?" I implored.
"Yes, I am a girl, anyway." she promptly agreed.
"Alright, so we do not get confused. Nicka, wish granted!" Nikolai mumbled.
Nicka did the thumbs up and goes back to reading.
"Can you spend the night alone here?" And he held my hand.
"Of course! We are safer here. The gate is elevated too. The subdivision is exclusive. Guards are watching over all of us.
I can manage!" I asserted with a smile.
"Just call me if there is a problem!" He caressed my face.
He kissed Nicka before he left. I led him outside.
"Be careful, Nicks! Thanks again for your assistance." And I held his arm.
"Hopefully next time there would be an addition to your thank you." He plopped his hand on mine.
I want to say 'I love you, Nicks'!
"I will get going!" He bid goodbye.
"Keep safe, okay?" I reminded him.
And he smooched me with a smack on the lips.
What do we have?
We hold each other's hands.
He visits me in my place.
He kisses me.
Do we already have something special?
Aunt Ellie still does not want to give up taking care of Nicks who is now Nicka.
That is her request to all of us just so we can call Nikolai Nicks.
They are impressively intimate with each other.
Brother Ricco fetches Nicka here before Ella and I enter TvN8 Station.
I am comfortable when Aunt Ellie is the one looking after Nicka.
"Eve!" Jarvis addressed me.
"Hey!" I greeted him.
He moved toward me. Then a paper bag was handed over.
"What is this?" I asked him.
"Just a simple present. I went to Hong Kong." He announced.
"Well, thanks!" I said again.
"You seem to be visiting here on TvN8 Station more often." Nicks unexpectedly appeared.
"I am just taking a quick visit to Eve!" Jarvis answered back.
"Dude, do not visit her anymore." Suddenly Nicks came up to me and held my hand.
"What is that? You never want to be overtaken by other people!" Jarvis announced.
I looked around at the two of them.
"Stay away from Eve. We know your true identity when it comes to women." Nicks admonished Jarvis.
"Do you have a relationship? Does Eve also know what kind of man you are when it comes to women?" Gradually there was tension between the two of them.
"Get out of here if you do not want to..." Nicks said when Jarvis abruptly pushed him.
"Wait!" I halted them.
But it is too late because they are already exchanging punches.
"Nicks, that is enough! Jarvis, please!
" I yelled.
"Get out of my company!" Nicks shouted.
"Eve, be careful with him likewise! You do not know him yet." Jarvis threatened and left.
Nicks was caught in his cracked lip.
"Come on! Let me attend to it! Why do you have to fight with him?" I caressed his lip with blood trickling down.
I took him to his office. I picked up the first aid kit.
"I do not want you to meet Jarvis again. Tell him to stop." Nicks mumbled as I treated him.
"I did not even know he was coming." I quit what I was doing.
"He will do nothing good to you. Please, listen to me!" He pressed his face to my hand.
"Yes, I will not talk to him anymore." I consented.
I feel I have an obligation to comply with Nicks's orders.
I
