Nick POV
I walked out of the room and left Selene in there. She seemed to honestly be shocked with my declaration just seconds ago but in all honesty, I am surprised that she didn’t catch on.
I thought it was pretty obvious already, but I guess you have to literally say the three words for it to be the truth, a reality.
I wasn’t sure what she was doing in there, but she was hiding in there for almost an hour. I shook my head as a smile graced my lips. I ended up pulling out my laptop and using this time to get some work done.
You’d think that I wouldn’t have noticed her tonight, but it was quite the opposite. I enjoyed watching her when she wasn’t watching me that is. I knew that she was a natural at socialising but that was normally in her circle of fashion and design.
She spoke to people without even knowing them and got many of them to love her. I received a message from Juliette, and she was very adamant that I don’t hurt Selene. Juliette was a close friend. she always was keen on getting involved with all of Simons projects and was generally a nice woman.
in the television industry in particular you can sometimes find yourself mixed with people who have motives that aren’t true.
I carried on typing out an email for my assistant when I heard the door to the bedroom open. The sound of her footsteps coming down the stairs was all I heard until from the corner of my eye I saw her poke her head into the room.
She jerked back when she saw me staring directly at her. I didn’t show much emotion on my face since I did probably scare her by admitting my love for her. Even though she should have known already.
I moved the laptop of my lap and placed it on the table I had near the sofa.
” Selene” I called out to her. I heard the soft sound of something hitting against the wall.
I had just imagined her head falling against the wall as she stressed about what to do next.
Realising that she is not going to come to me I stood up and walked over to her. Looking to my left she was in the position I imagined exactly, and it was honestly the cutest thing.
” You don’t have to say it back, I’m ready to tell you how I feel but if you’re not at that stage” my words were interrupted as she launched herself at me. her arms went around my body as she buried her face in my chest.
I felt the vibrations on my chest of her mumbles, but I couldn’t understand what she was saying. I pulled back and lifted her chin so that I could really hear her but this time she slammed her lips closed.
I couldn’t help but grin at her, she really is cute when she’s shy about something. I hadn’t seen this sweet side of her yet and it was truly refreshing.
I leant down and tried to force her lips open with my own, but she turned her face to the right avoiding me. Why was she making this so darn difficult?
“Now is not the time to be silent, you need to speak up” I whispered as my thumb danced around the back of her neck. I smiled at her slight shiver.
“I think I love you too” Selene finally spoke up. ” But Ive never been in love so Im not really sure what Im feeling. But at the same time, I cant describe how I feel for you as anything else but love” she continued to say.
I found it cute that she was rambling, but this is how I know she was telling me the truth.
“Now that wasnt so scary was it “I taunt her, as I finally brought her close. I wrap my arms around her and watch her try to fight a smile.
“Dont bully me” she pouts her pink lips at me. I laugh at her attempt to walk away from me, it’s practically impossible with the tight hold I have on her, but I commend her for trying.
I reach around her and lift her up. Selene wraps her legs around my waist as I support her. I could never bully you and besides I find it cute when youre like this I say pulling her hair behind her ear.
Selene shivered as I stroked the back of her neck.
I really enjoyed watching her react to my touch. Tonight, I made sure to keep her close when I had the chance and even thought I was concentrating on many of the conversations I was having with the many people at the event tonight.
I was still able to see the reactions she had to me.
“I think Im ready for bed, arent you” she said releasing a yawn. I finally pulled back as she yawned, parting those pretty little lips.
“Yeah, go up whilst I shower”, I said realising I havent even showered yet. She didnt object, she just walked out. My hoodie swallowing her petite frame. I could tell that she was tired. I was grateful that even after work she attended the event tonight.
I headed up after I sorted things out down here. Selene was rolled over on her side underneath the blankets. She was scrolling through her phone with her hair spread out above her.
I grinned as I walked to the shower and started to strip off my clothes. I caught sight of her rose gold watch laying on the table. I quickly removed mine from my wrist and laid it next to hers.
I liked that. Mine and hers together. I shook my head as I stepped in the shower. Since when did I become so corny with these things.
By the time I stepped back into the room, she had turned over and was now facing me, waiting for me.
I bit my lip as I stared at her. She looked adorable tonight and I struggled to believe that she was all mine. When Selene started to become quite known in the industry, I never really paid attention to her.
Mostly because of how the media portrayed her. The media were good at dehumanising people and especially women. It never settled with me which is why I never wanted to have a girlfriend who wasnt used to the lies and betrayals of the media.
Selene first caught my eye, the night she stepped on that stage and spoke about herself, the day she nearly was shot at by that women.
That day I didnt see her as a woman I was interested in. more like a woman I respected but never in a million years did I aspect to find her in my bed tonight.
“What are you frowning at, dont I look good in your bed” she pouts as she moves the blanket down her legs.
I shut the door behind me, so that the steam from the shower didnt come into my room. “quite the contrary actually Selene, you look amazing in my bed” I said finally stepping forward.
I flung the towel to the left and knelt on the bed. Selene shuffled closer to me. I moved so that she could come and lay her head on my lap. I brought her hair from underneath and moved it to the side.
“when did you realise that you loved me” she asked as she stared up at me.
I chuckled, I figured she would ask me that.
“I actually cant remember. It was gradual with the more time we spent together. Like you I knew I felt something, but I wasnt sure what it was. But I can tell you, that I really do love you” I waited for her reaction.
My chest grew with pride as her cheeks became red and she moved her legs.
“is it that much of a turn on” I laughed moving my hand down to pressed down onto her thigh.
I had already anticipated the slap on my leg. So, I grabbed her fingers, lacing ours with each other.
“shut up Nick, I thought I felt a spider in the bed thats all” she replied as she turned away from me.
I shook my head. never pegged you to be such a liar. Its completely natural to be turned on by your boyfriend I told her, finally bringing my hand up to her face. I traced her sharp features with my fingertips.
I breathed in when she parted her lips as I traced her cupids bow.
“arent boyfriends supposed to kiss their girlfriends” she comments when my finger moves further away from the place, I knew she wanted me the most.
I leant over her as my hand cupped her chin. Her eyes widened as I lowered my lips down into hers.
Selene greedily kissed me first, threading her fingers through my wet hair and gently tugging it.
I groaned against her lips as she took control and deepen the kiss, sliding her tongue against mine.
Eager are we.
I took her distraction as a keen opportunity to smooth my hand down her chest, cupping her through my hoodie. She felt so good against my hand and her moan only clarified how much she liked it.
Her response to my touch was always something I could never get tired of.
“Nick”she moaned as I slipped my hand under the shorts she was wearing. My lips parted when I felt her bare underneath those shorts of hers.
I cupped her earning a groan from Selene as she widened her legs under the blanket. I wanted to see her, see her smooth tanned skin as I touched her.
“move the blanket” I demanded to which she grabbed the end of the duvet and tossed it to the side.
“you must be tired hmm, I can stop if you wish” I whispered as I traced my lips over her lips.
She moaned against my lips ” please dont stop Nick, it feels too good” her words only motivated me. I slid my finger down her slit, she was already ready for me and I moaned.
“Dont close your eyes, I want you to look at me whilst I touch you” she groaned but finally opened her eyes. If it was even possible, they were dark with lust. Her pupils expanding.
“please Nick” she moaned as she lifted her hips up slightly, moving with my finger. I brought my thumb down to her clit and circled around. Her hips jerked, forcing my finger in deeper.
I forced her lips open with my tongue. I had to taste her lips. She kissed me faster, creating an intense rhythm that I loved. She became greedy as her hand slid around her neck and pulled me down.
“Im so close” she moaned as her lips moved against my own. This was all I needed to slide another finger inside as I helped her reach her orgasm.
Sex is seriously underrated for the feeling of making your girl orgasm, bringing her to complete bliss with just the gentle touch.
I ran my hand down her shoulder and back again as she shuddered against me. Her eyes stayed closed and she bit down on her lip.
“good night beautiful” I whispered, kissing her softly on the lips. She seemed to mumble something back, but she was too far into sleep to actually make sense.
I watched her as she soon fell asleep. Love can be dangerous; can make you feel like you would actually do anything for that person.
This is how I felt about Selene. Ill admit it scares me but that doesnt mean Im scared to love her. She was worth it, and I would be stupid to miss out on Selene.
