Love, Lies & Legacy- chapter 6
CHAPTER 6
"If Its Alright is a beautiful song," he said when we were walking.
"Really? I usually do my best work when I'm crying my eyes out. I like your beat especially the piano part in the beginning. You're really talented you know."
"Thanks. We make a great team. Maybe next time we should produce Julez's third album," he said while taking a seat on an empty bench.
"That would be so cool. If that really happens, I get to spend some time with Julez," I said as I sat next to him.
"So you only want to do that so you could be with Julez. You do not care about me right? Jesse is not important," he said with his witty sarcasm.
"Aww…. Jesse is upset. Maybe this will make you better," I said as I put my hand on his shoulders. I leaned in to kiss him but he put in finger on my lips. He then stood up, crossed his hands and looked at me with a half smile.
"Say it first; you want to produce an album with Julez so you could spend more time with Jesse," he said with a pout. I stood up, laughing.
"Jesse…” I said while coming closer to him. He took a step back.
"No kiss until you say it," he said with a smile. God he was purposely trying to torture me.
"Fine, I want to spend more time with Jesse," I said while rolling my eyes. He then pulled me close and placed his hands on my waist. He then suddenly let go of me.
“What’s wrong?” I asked.
“Are you all right about this? I mean, you just ended your relationship with Miles. Are you comfortable kissing me now?” he asked while crossing his arms. Jesse was right about the whole situation. It has only been a day since I broke up with Miles.
It made me think, maybe my little crush on Jesse is something more than what I had expected. I could not say a word to answer his question. I wanted to kiss Jesse but I could not tell him that.
Jesse placed his arms around my waist and pulled me close. He leaned in and gave me a sweet kiss. I kissed him back full heartedly.
“Your kiss tells all, Sienna,” he said when I went for air from his kiss. I smiled at his words.
“Isn’t it obvious now that I am so comfortable kissing you,” I asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Isn't it obvious that British boys are so much better than American boys," he said as our foreheads touched. I immediately let go of him.
"Show off…" I said while running away from him. He went after me and held my waist from behind. He kissed the nape of my neck and we walked like that till we reached his car.
"I have a surprise for you," he said when he arrived at his car.
I stared at Jesse with full anticipation. Jesse is the type of guy that is full of surprises and most of the time his surprises were always unpredictable.
"You know, maybe I should give the surprise later," he said while biting his lower lip and tilting his head to one side.
"Jesse! If you wanted to give it later, don't mention it in the first place! God, are you purposely trying to torture me? Is it entertaining to watch me like this?" I asked while stroking back my hair in frustration.
"Actually the answer is yes, I do find this entertaining," he said with a half smile.
"Fine, I'll play your little torturing game. But one day I will get you back Jesse Everard," I said while pouting my lower lip. He then took both my hands together and brought it to his lips. I smiled at him sincerely. Then I felt a cold object on the palm of my hand where Jesse was holding.
"Open your hands," he said softly. I opened them and found a silver necklace perfectly coiled on the palm of my hand. I slowly lifted it up and saw that dangling from the shimmering necklace was a beautiful pendant of the Eiffel Tower. I was completely speechless. I have never gotten a gift from a boy, especially a gorgeous and most probably expensive one like the one I was holding. But the surprise did not end there.
"Would you accompany me to Paris?" he asked eagerly. That did it, I felt like my heart was not functioning probably due to the fact that its already melted.
"Paris? With you?" I asked, almost stammering.
"Yes, for the holidays. It's really beautiful there this time of the year," he said while still waiting for an answer. Since I couldn't get any words from my mouth, I end up giving him a hug. He hugged me back and I could feel my feet lifted from the ground. Jesse is so tall that every time we hug each other I felt like I was flying.
"I guess that is a yes?" he asked while slowly putting me back to earth. I nodded and gave him a quick kiss on the lips.
It turns out, when Jesse got back to England, he could not stop thinking about me. I found that really cute. He used work as a way to distract himself from me. Since I did not return his emails, he thought I was not interested in him. He decided to give it one more chance and coming to New York to meet his mum was the perfect time.
Who would have thought that Jesse had feelings for me? All this time I thought it was impossible to be with Jesse. But now it seems like my chance was right in front of me. To me, Jesse was my little holiday miracle.
