The Outlaw

We both giggled skipping through the lavender field. She was gracefully running ahead of me, her ivory dress fitted her petite body perfectly. She looked back at me with a huge smile on her face, her blue eyes shining with joy.

“Let’s go!!” She yelled loudly with her hand on her huge hat. I ran towards her making her screech and outrun me. I humour her by slowing down everytime I was just inches away making her laugh loudly. This went on for a couple of time more untill she suddenly sat on the ground due to exhaustion, “Tired already?” I joked standing over her with a smirk.

She looked at me with a pout, “It’s not my fault you’re athletic and I am weak as a kitten??” She huffed and looked head. I chuckled and sat beside her, “You are a cry baby!” I say elbowing her softly. She jumped rubbing her arms, “That hurt!” She accused me making me chuckle with a smirk.

“I didn’t hit you that hard, drama queen!” I said poking her arms. She whines and jumps on me trying to tackle me,, ‘trying’ being the key word. For someone looking at us it looking like a little girl thrashing around while being held back by a huge mountain, me!

She kept on hitting my side with her tiny fist but instead of groaning in pain, I was laughing like a mad man.

I pushed her back and got on top of her, holding both of her hands over her head. With my free hand I started to tickle her, she laughed brightly making me laugh with her.

When I was done I rolled to her side looking up in the sky.

“You know… I am very lucky to have you in my life!” She said looking at me. I looked back at her with a smile, “I know, you are!” I said with a wink. She chuckled and softly hit me, “Promise me, we will always be together, no matter what!” She asks me with her brows furrowed.

“I promise you, Kilynn! We will always stay together no matter what happens!” I say putting my pinky finger up in promise. She wraps her pinky finger around mine with a smile, “You’re the best, Klara!” She says and hugs me.

I sit up in a hurry, my hands kept shaking and my heart felt like it’s going to burst out of my chest any second now. I am covered in cold sweat because of this nightmare,,, more like,,, memory, that has been haunting me for a decade now.

Every since I visited the mountain top with Gerardo, my nightmares have become constant. Her memories have been hunting me more and more. It’s been so long since,, that,, happened but I can’t seem to move on. In all honesty, I think a part of me doesn’t want to move on, it wants to hold onto everything relating to her.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

I loved her from every single cell of my body, but only if things would have been different.. she would be here with me. Just like we had promised years ago.

I hissed in annoyance when my alarm went off again, “Why did the alarm went off?!” I growled to myself, already in the bad mood because of the dream.

I groan, turning off the alarm and fall back on the bed. Before I could have closed my eyes I heard a knock on my door, “Lilith! Ain’t you awake yet? You have to go to work!!” Layla’s voice came making my eyes shoot open, “Shit!” I cursed and ran to the washroom.

I did my morning business then jumped in and out the shower like flash. I wore a forest green flowy pants with a floral full sleeves top, which I tucked in. I tie my hair in a high pony tail and take out my make up bag. I didn’t have much time so i just applied my concealer then set it with my powder then applied some bronzer on my cheekbones, forehead and jaw. Then with the same bronzer I shadow my crease, I apply a highlighter in the corner of my eye then apply a winged eyeliner followed by a thick coat of mascara. Finally I applied a coat of blood red lipstick to finish the look.

After spraying some perfume I put on my yellow heels I got from Paris, I pull out my work bag along with my vintage Lana Marks bag. I check all my documents and take both my personal and business phone and head downstairs.

When I came to the kitchen, the smell of freshly brewed tea and english breakfast hit my nose. A smile automatically came to my face and my stomach growled in passion to get close to the love of it’s love, food!!

As soon as I entered the kitchen I was shock to see the chef, “Impressive!” I say with a little smirk decorating my face. He looks up at me with his enchanting hazel eyes that never fails to make me go weak in my knees. He shaved off his beard but still had stubble on his face, and dear god! Did I not want to feel those stubbles on my lower region as I ride that fucking mouth! Holy water! Somebody throw me in a lake of holy water!! This man is a walking sin!

He was dressed in a blue tshirt that hug his chiseled chest perfectly enough for me to see the outline of his defined pecs. My mouth went dry, even dressed in something as casual as shorts and t-shirt, he is the sexiest man I have ever laid eyes on. And I wanna lay on… Okay no more lonely horny talks!

“You done checking me out?” His statement snapped me off my fantasy land. I rolled my eyes nonchalantly, “I wasn’t checking you out, sweetie! But if that fantasy makes you happy then whatever!” I said sitting down the the island chair as he pushed a plate full of bacon, sausages, bread and eggs with a small ramekin of baked beans.

“Don’t be embarrassed, love. I am a sight nobody can possibly ignore!” He said with a cocky smirk, giving emphasis on the word ‘possibly’

“And yes I can cook!” He said right after with a dazzling smile.

“Hmm, I wouldn’t have never guessed, honestly!” I said eating my breakfast he so kindly made while totally ignoring his pervious comment. He bent down, plopping his arms on the counter and looked at me intrigued, “Is that a good thing?” He asks in confusion.

“Unpredictability is a quality I find very… riveting!” I said with a small smirk. I don’t think he caught onto the underlying flirty tone because he looked puzzled by my answer. I yelled internally because I told him that he is attractive on his face and he didn’t catch on it, all thanks to my excellent grammar!

“It’s a good thing!” I explained further biting my lips to stop myself from smiling like a cheshire cat. He nodded his head, “Where is my sister by the way?” I ask Gerardo as he puts some food on his plate.

“Don’t know.” He said putting bacons and eggs in his mouth. I hummed taking the tea pot and pouring both of us a cup of tea. I squeezed a zest of lemon and had my tea.

Gerardo sighed sipping his tea, “It’s really nice for a tea!” He said making me raise a brow at him.

“It honestly is relaxing.. in a way.. I didn’t know it was possible!” He said hesitantly making me chuckle.

“Tea is a very good beverage to start off your day, it’s refreshing!” I said as I continue eating my breakfast, I took a quick glace on my watch, I still had 15 minutes before I need to hit the road.

“You need to leave?” He asks me, I nod my head, “But I still have some time” I said looking at him. God he is a delight to my eyes.

“Finish your breakfast, I’ll drop you off.” He says, my insides started to bubble giddily.

“You’re free?” I ask him and he shrugs in reply, “It’s not like I have a lot to do anyway.. above all, we gotta work on our new friendship bond..” he suggested with a smile.

I smiled and nodded at him, we both finished our breakfast while maintaining a good conversation. On the outside I looked calm and collected but in the inside I was jumping around in joy. Yeah bitch I may be a mean ass hoe but when someone like Gerardo is trying to come close to you… Bruh! I can’t–

Gerardo drove me to my work place while I navigated the route. As we pulled up infront of my law firm, “I will get off work by 6, so will you pick me up or should I take a cab?” I ask him, turning getting my bags from the bag seat but he beated me on it making my face come incredibly come to his. His minty hot breath fanned my face making me shiver. My heart was ready to pounce on this man any second now, I could feel the heat radiating off his face, I was so compelled to cup his face and bring those soft lips to mine.

But you know me! A badass in general but a coward in any love interest! *Painful smile with thumbs up*

I cleared my throat and leaned back taking the bag Gerardo pushed my way.

“I’ll be here exactly at six! Also what do you wanna eat for dinner” he asks, I so desperately wanted to reply ‘You’ but all hail this whimp.

“Yeah okay!” I said and got off the car I was just few feets away from the car when I heard honking. I looked back and saw Gerardo gesturing me to come back. With a furrowed brow I walk back and bend down to hear him, “Also a strong and nervous woman is very riveting!” He winked at me making me gasp in horror. He reversed the car and went away.
