You Are Very Special

You Are Very Special
ELLA

I watched Lucas silently as he said to Nova, "Let me talk to you later, darling. Yes, I wanted to tell you at the right time. I'll introduce you to her, soon."

I knew Lucas was talking about me and when he ended the call and came back to meet me by the pool, he cupped my cheeks and asked, "What happened? Why is your face suddenly so pale? Please tell me, my love."

I sighed, "Actually, Lucas, I haven't been completely honest with you."

"What have you hidden from me?" He asked.

I stared at him for a while. I was looking into his eyes but I couldn't read what was there. In the end, I decided not to say everything. I didn't know how Lucas would react if I told him the truth and I'd be devastated if I lost him.

"I already know your daughter," I said to him. "After I fell for you, I did a little digging, and with both your last names similar, I was able to find out that Nova, who is in the same class as I am, is your daughter."

"Really? he asked.

I nodded.

"Do you have a good relationship with her?" He asked.

I shrugged, "Well we aren't close friends but we are cool with each other. Sorry, I kept it from you."

He smiled, "Is that why you look so pale? It's fine. Nova is okay with me finding love and I've told her that I will introduce you two to each other. I guess I'll just make it a surprise for her. It would have been nice if you both were friends though. It would make me so happy."

"I will work on that," I said to him with a determined expression.

He shook his head, "Don't trouble yourself so much. Once I introduce you to her as my girl, you both can then find common interests to bring you closer. It will be easier if Nova is also making the effort so wait until then, okay?"

I threw myself in his arms and hugged him, "Thanks, Lucas. You are so amazing."

He pulled me from his body and stared at me. With his hands holding my face, he said, "So are you, baby," before devouring my lips.

The moment I had repeatedly dreamt of seemed about to happen and I was both excited and afraid.

Lucas kissed me until we were both out of breath. We looked at each other, panting, and he kissed me again. His lips trailed down my neck and in no time I could feel the wetness in my core.

I shivered in his arms while he kept placing kisses all over my neck. I opened my eyes when I felt his hand on one of my breasts.

I gazed at him and saw the desire in his eyes. My hands left his body and went to my shoulders as I gracefully pulled down the top of my swimsuit, revealing my breasts.

Lucas stared at them for a while before burying his face in between them. I had never felt so wonderful before and as his lips danced around my nipples, I clutched his wet hair, moaning and gasping.

Lucas lifted his face after a while and stared at me again. There was a gleam in his eyes as he cupped my cheeks once again and crashed his lips against mine.

When our lips parted, he asked in a hoarse voice, "Is this really your face time, Ella?"

I nodded and almost immediately, the desire in his eyes disappeared. I looked at him in surprise as he pulled up my swimsuit, covered my breasts, and made me wear it back.

The disappointment on my face was obvious as I asked, "What happened? Are you displeased in any way?"

He chuckled, "How is that even possible? You are perfect, my love and it took all the self-control in the world for me to do what I just did.

The reason is that I don't want your first time to be in a pool. You are very special to me, Ella, and deserve to be treated as such."

Hearing his reasons only made me fall more in love with him. I threw myself into his arms once again and said, "You are also very special to me, Lucas."

We spent the rest of our time in the pool swimming and after that, had dinner together before calling it a day.

Lucas insisted on dropping me off at home rather than at the mall where he picked me up. After protesting for a while, I gave in and let him drop me off, especially since it meant spending a little more time with him.

When we finally arrived outside the gate of my house, I heaved a sigh of relief when I saw that no one in my family was outside. Lucas kissed me goodnight.

After that, I waved him goodbye with a smile and hurried back into the house. I felt so happy that my date had turned out much better than I predicted.

As soon as I entered the house, I said hi to everyone and went straight to my room. I freshened up and threw myself on my bed. I kept replaying everything that happened, in my mind; my conversations with Lucas and the way he kissed me.

I got a notification on my phone and felt even happier when I realized that it was from Lucas. I began to chat with him but he asked if he could call me at that time because he had some things to say.

"Of course, you can call me whenever," I replied. "Your call is the one I look forward to the most."

I heard him laugh over the phone before saying, "Thanks for today. I had an amazing time with you and wished it wouldn't come to an end."

"So did I," I replied.

"That's sweet to hear, baby. Okay, I'll be traveling out of the state. I'll be away for the next two days."

I gasped, "Oh no, how am I going to survive without you?"

Lucas chuckled, "You're one funny girl, Ella. Are you saying you will not be able to survive for two days without me?"

"You have no idea how hard it is for me to go a night without you, Lucas. Why two days?" I asked.

"I'm sorry, baby," he said. "It's a very important deal and it will take more than a day so it's inevitable. Besides, I am aware that you have a test on Thursday or Friday. You can spend your time studying hard so you will ace it.

However, my flight will arrive first thing on Saturday morning. If you will be free during the weekend, you can come around. That's if you are okay with doing so."

"By around, do you mean your house?" I asked.

He said, "Yes! You can come to my house. My daughter will be out for most of the day but she will get to meet you when she gets back.

It will be a surprise for her. Since you said you know her and you both have a good relationship in school, there should be no problems.

Also, I will be home all day so, we can spend the day together. I'm sure it will make up for the two days I will be away. Wouldn't it?"

"Wow, Lucas! I will be so happy to spend the day with you. Of course, I will make it. I have nothing planned, absolutely nothing," I replied.

Lucas chuckled, "Well, that's nice. So when you got back home, what happened? Did your parents ask you any questions?"

"No, no. My parents are really cool, especially my dad. I'll tell them about us when I'm ready," I said.

"When will that be?" Lucas asked.

"Well, very soon. Pretty soon......."

"Why I am not opposed to the idea of you telling them is that I know your dad and I've seen him more than once where I play golf. If he finds out about our relationship and it doesn't come from you, it wouldn't be nice," Lucas interrupted.

"I know. Don't worry. I do not intend to keep our relationship a secret from my parents. I'll tell them. After all, I'm very serious. I take our relationship very seriously," I said.

"I know," Lucas replied. "Even if you don't say it, I know. So tell me, how was our date? Did you enjoy yourself?"

"Well," I smiled, "Saying I enjoyed myself is an understatement. The truth is, just being with you alone is wonderful, even if you're not saying or doing anything."

"Lucas laughed, "Really? You do say the sweetest things, Ella."

"Well, I learned from the best," I replied.

"Hmmm, the best. And by the best, you mean...?" Lucas asked.

"By the best, I mean my parents. From when I was little, I have always seen them so much in love, and I've always wanted that. Probably, that's why I was careful.

I didn't want to be in a relationship just for the sake of being in one. I told myself that if I would be in a relationship with someone someday, it will be someone I really loved, and I got that when I found you."

"Interesting," Lucas said. "Well, there's something I'd like to tell you, but that will be when you come on Saturday."

"Really? Oh, you should have waited till Saturday to tell me. Now you've gotten me all excited," I said.

"Relax, it's not something to be worried about. It's just what I feel I need to share with you," Lucas reassured me.

"Alright, I'll wait, in that case," I replied.

After chatting for a while, I finally said good night to Lucas when he mentioned that he wanted to sleep.

As I lay on my bed, I couldn't help but think, "How will I survive without you, Lucas? What do I do?"

Maybe I'll just find a way to keep busy. I mean, seeing him every day was not really ideal. Maybe it was for the best that I learn to give him some space so he wouldn't get tired of me.

Or perhaps I could just ask my mom for a few tips, but then she would want to know about how old he was and everything, and that was going to be a problem.

In the end, I decided to turn to the next best thing; the internet - to get some advice. After reading through, I saw a few helpful tips before finally falling asleep. I promised myself that even when Lucas got back, I would try as much as possible to give him some space so he would not get fed up with having me around him.

NOVA

As Aiden and I chatted while I lay on my bed, I asked him, "So when is it going to be?

"When is what going to be?" he asked back.

I said, "Well, you said you were inviting me to your house, have you forgotten? So, when will it be so I can prepare? I'll be free on Saturday since we would have written our tests already.

My dad would be returning from his trip that same Saturday so he will spend his whole day resting while I can spend mine with you. Will it be okay for me to come over to your house?"

"Of course, it will be fine," Aiden said. "I don't really have much to do."

"Oh, really? That's so nice," I replied. "Well, after staying at your house, we could go out, stroll, have dinner, or whatever. Just tell me where you'd like to go."

Aiden laughed and said, "Okay, dear. I'll be looking forward to having you. Do you have any special requests, like anything you want me to keep for you?"

I thought for a while and said, "Nothing, all I want is you. As long as you are there, I'll be content." I could feel him smiling, even though I couldn't see his face.

He said, "Alright then, Saturday it is."

"Will you be in school on Friday?" I asked. "I know your own test falls on Thursday and Friday is a free day for you."

"Yeah, I'll be in school on Friday," he said.

"Okay, that's much better. We can make proper plans on Friday then. Goodnight, my love." I said.

"Goodnight dear," he replied.
