Can You Mend My Broken Heart?

240 That night with her -1

He looked at her and mouthed,

"I love you".

It was windy and breezy outside. Since it was already 9:30 pm it was a bit chilly too. Her hair was slightly all over the place because of the wind.

She had her hands stretched for him to hold and get up as he was kneeling on the ground.

He held her hands and looked at her face which looked angelic amidst the combination of the yellow light from the street lamp and the white moonlight sky.

Getting up he looked at her and said again,

"God, I love you Akira !!!", saying that he came closer and hugged her softly at first and then tightened his grip around her like he didn't want her to go away from him even for a minute.

He whispered slowly into her ears.

"I don't want to go to the Amazons without you".

She hugged him tight and said,

"Don't worry my brother will take care of you".

Raymond laughed and said,

"Let's go back to the car".

"Why are you laughing?"

"I will tell in the car".

"Come on, tell me why are you laughing?"

He leaned close to her and whispered into her ears again,

"I am not going to speak about such things in front of my father in law and mother in law". And saying that he held her hand and dragged her back towards the car.

Once seated inside, Akira asked,

"Now tell me why you laughed?"

"You said your brother will take care of me".

"Yeah, he will. and I will ask him to take proper care of you".

"But I do not think he can fulfill all my needs now. Can he?", he said and looked at her. The smile had slowly disappeared from his face and all that was written was his desire and his want.

Akira looked at him in disbelief and asked,

"Seriously, that's the only thing running in your dirty mind?"

"There are a lot of things going in my mind right now and you don't even have the slightest idea about it. If only you could read my mind you would know about the things that want to do to you, the places where I want to touch you. If only !!!"

She heard him say those words and those words were enough to shatter the confidence with which she was teasing him because that's how Raymond was.

No short cuts, no beating around the bush.

Right from the heart.

He only knew how to speak his mind to her. He unnerved her with his rawness every single time. But deep down she liked it because in the whole world only he had the power to unnerve her like that.

She blushed hard and to avoid looking at him she looked outside the window on the passenger side. Suddenly the atmosphere inside the car was becoming hot. She pulled the window shields down to feel the cold breeze on her face because she had clearly understood what he was trying to insinuate, just that she was so nervous that she didn't think that she was ready for it yet.

He looked at her going all red and gulping and gasping at the same time and he knew what was running in her mind.

He gently touched her shoulder and said,

"We don't have to do it if you don't want to. I don't want you to feel pressurized. We have our whole life in front of us Akira".

Hearing him say that she turned towards him. Her shy eyes were looking down for a while and she fidgeted with her nails a bit. But then she looked up and said,

"I wore something black for you today".
