Chapter 20

Justin kept one of his hands on her cheek and slowly leaned. She closed her eyes and felt his lips on her. Sparks flew through them during the kiss.

She has always read in a book about electricity or sparks passing through during moments like this but never thought that she would ever feel it.

When Fiona kissed Justin back, he was beyond shocked. They were in the same position for a few more minutes until she pulled back to take a breath. They both were breathless.

"I like you," Justin said with full honesty. Finally!!

She was going to say something, but he interrupted her.

"Please let me finish. I won't be able to say this to you again."

She nodded.

"I really like you more than a friend. I know you wanted to say that the kiss was a mistake"

She opened her mouth, but he kept his finger on her lips.

"But I can't forget what happened at this moment and I don't want to. I know that we only know each other for two to three weeks, but I am falling for you. I guess I always liked you from the start when we first met at the business party. I knew from that very moment you are different from all those girls here. And the honeymoon aka friendly trip that we so-called it, I would really like it if one day we actually go on a real honeymoon. Yes! I want our marriage to work. I wanted to confess my feelings for a long time, but I didn't have the nerves to do it. I was afraid of rejection. Heck! I am still afraid of losing you. This week every single moment was special to me. Our 20 - 20 games on an airplane, bed arrangement, pictures that we took, small moments like holding hands, hugs, and every single thing was special. So Fiona Carter I really like you allot and I want our marriage to work for real."

She was quiet for a while and her silence was killing him inside.

"Please say something, slap me, shout at me, but say something" Justin pleaded.

"Ummmm"

"Huh, what, " He asked with a frown.

Fiona pointed her fingers towards Justin's finger that were on her lips.

"Oh" when he realized what she was trying to say he immediately removed his finger from her lips.

"Firstly I would never say the kiss was a mistake because it wasn't. It was a special moment for both of us. Well, I won't slap you even if you want me to. And as far as our trip is concerned, like you even I enjoyed every moment with you and it was beyond special."

"And?" he asked with hope "And I like you too," she said completely surprising him.

"Really?"

She answered by kissing him.

"You really do?"

"Gosh yes, Justin I have the same feelings as you and I always wanted to give our marriage a chance. I had been having the same feelings for a while, but I was afraid of getting my heart broke into millions of pieces. I won't be able to handle the pain once again. I would rather prefer a proper friendly breakup than betrayal."

"I would never hurt you. I would never do anything as Noah did. He didn't know what he lost. And I will never betray you. Trust me I am nowhere like that moron."

"I know," she whispered "I like you," he said once again.

"I like you too," she said with a big smile on her face.

Justin was on cloud nine. He hugged her, pulled her up, and swirl her around. He kissed her like there was no tomorrow.

He removed the gift that he got it for her.

"What is this?"

"Just open it and look it for yourself." Justin gave it to her.

Justin gave Fiona a velvet box. She opened it carefully and saw a silver charm bracelet that has small stars, hearts, and dolphins hanging.

"It's so beautiful. I loved it." She hugged him.

Fiona was overwhelmed. She was really stunned when Justin confessed that he likes her. She never once thought that he could like an ordinary girl like her. You can call it intuition but she knows that if they both want they can make their marriage work.

After a while, the couple went into their suit. Justin was glad that he told her about his feelings. It feels amazing when you like a person and that person likes you back. The girl beside him was really special and he wasn't planning to let her go any time soon. She was stuck with him forever.
