So, I chose the latter. I tried to move away from him, but he caged me with his arms. I tried to wiggle free, but it was like an ant trying to move an elephant's feet.
"What did you eat these years, huh?" I questioned him, feeling a little tired after wrestling a little with his one hand.
He might find it funny because he laughed, but it wasn't funny for me. I tried with all my strength, yet I failed to move one hand, no matter how hopeless I was.
"Do you want to know what I ate in these five years? I would tell you if you promised not to argue. You might even fall from the bed," Blaze said in a serious tone, seeing how firm he looked. Somehow I believed him.
It was like telling a teenage girl how to be beautiful and that girl was trying to hear what that person was telling her wholeheartedly. Seriously.
Saying nothing, he sealed my lips, and I froze like a dead fish. What the fuck?
I tried to move my face away, but he put both of his hands on my face. After struggling for some time, I stopped moving because I lost strength now.
Suddenly his kiss became so gentle that it could melt anyone's heart. My heart already fell for him once, now once again like the ocean's waves washed away my anger and broke the mud wall I created around my heart. It took me five years to build these, yet he took 5 seconds to break it.
Why? It's not fair.
I gripped his elbow; if my nails were longer, I might have wounded him with my sharp claws.
But he didn't stop. He moved my hands away from my head. Suddenly he grabbed my face with his hand, holding my hands from his elbow.
I gulped saliva, but not mine; it was his; he entered his tongue in my mouth and stayed still. I hesitated but caught his tongue with mine, as I started kissing him back while he put my hands around his neck.
I hugged his neck at my will. As my hand tightened, he jumped on me. I didn't know if it was my unconscious mind or my weak heart that pushed me, but I wrapped my legs around him.
I hugged him as tight as my heart and body wanted. I lost all my control over my body. I felt it's not mine anymore. I looked with a bit of hesitation from my body and heart to stop this, but they accepted him with no rejection.
Tears started to stream out of my eyes.
But as I was not me anymore, my life and my soul hung on him. I kissed him like a crazy witch who starved for thousands of years.
Blaze hugged me closely as he felt my desperation towards him. Yet at that moment, I was so desperate - I waited five long years for him to come back to me. I wanted to be the Anna who loved Blaze Roderick and was obsessed with him.
As I stayed silent, she lifted her teary face and looked straight into my eyes.
"Why? Please answer me. This ruined my five years. I can't give another five years before I can answer my heart why you left me. Or are you accepting you didn't love me if that's the reason then?" she inquired, saying something I never wanted to hear.
"No," without my knowledge, this word left my mouth immediately. I knew I should tell her, even if it was a half-truth.
I raised a hand from her waist and caressed her face, gently drying her tears with my thumb.
"I love you, Love. I love you and I always will. Never doubt this. As for why I left you, that was my most helpless decision I took at that moment because I wanted to keep you. I wanted to protect you, Anna. You already might guess. Also, a thousand questions might bother you right now. I am not an ordinary boy, love. My family background is quite complicated. I wanted to live a simple life and that's why I left this family, but after my brother's death, I had to go back there. That's why I left you, my love," I said because Anna needed to accept me. As for the whole truth, I didn't want to tell her yet.
Anna's eyes were blank, which scared me. Was she not going to believe me?
She suddenly wanted to get up from me, but I hugged her waist with both my hands. "No, please, Anna." It scared me that she might push me away from her once again.
But her actions stunned me. She once again hugged me with both hands. "Let's sleep. I need some time, please," she said. She already closed her eyes while I stayed silent.
