Chapter 72: Arrie! My love



Chapter 72: Arrie! My love

Aria glanced at Alan and went towards the stairs to go to her room. The latter followed her and scooped her up before she could take a step on stairs.

"Young Master Morgan, put me down. I have legs too." Aria couldn't understand why he always carries her.

"I know." Alan's reply made her dumbfounded.

He left her near her room door and went to his room. He got fresh and racked his brain before going to her. Without knowing if it's yes or no, he had no mood to work or sleep or do anything.

Like every time, her every action affected him.

Aria was in her armchair after getting fresh. She was thinking about what to do or should she call Eva but she heard a knock and Alan entered.

"Why are you here? I haven't decided yet." Aria stood up going far thinking he might do like the previous day.

Alan easily pulled her to his arms and kissed her forehead affectionately.

Aria couldn't understand why she becomes obedient and feels calm as soon as he kisses her forehead.

She raised her head a little and spoke looking at him, She didn't get angry nor annoyed. Her pleasant yet feeble voice sounded. "I haven't said yes yet."

Alan pecked on her cheek gently, "You haven't said no either." His stolid tone sounded clear.

Alan saw her turning pink and pecked on the other cheek making her slowly melt in his arms.

Aria couldn't push him to break free and again spoke, "That doesn't mean Yes."

He kissed on her eyelids and replied, "That doesn't mean 'No' either."

He caressed her head and continued looking at her, "If you stay with me, I promise to make you smile every day with my random kisses. I promise to hold your hand when you need someone to walk through the storm. I promise to share my food with you and laugh at your stupid jokes. I will listen when you tell me about how horrible your day was when you come home from work or school or college. I promise to hold you in my arms when you feel like your whole world is crashing down... I'll make you see that there are a million reasons why you should stay with me."

Alan kissed on her nose looking at her dazed face. From near he could see her supple skin shimmering brightly under the light. Her long curled lashes batted occasionally giving him an urge to touch them.

His voice was mesmeric and alluring with his gentle and soft kisses. His words touched her inner self. She felt the time had stopped looking at him who was looking at her as he caressed her hair.

After a long time, she spoke about her worry, "Nothing scares me more than someone loving me one day and deciding they don't want me the next. Nothing terrifies me more than being close to someone and then watching them become a stranger again... Having nobody means having no one to lose. I already lost completely, I don't think I will have the strength to stand up again."

Alan rubbed her back lightly hearing her choke on words and seeing her eyes filling up.

"You will have me and I have no intention to leave you." His voice carried a placidness to Aria.

She wanted to flee when she heard 'Marry me' in the cemetery but she really felt warm hearing it and knowing he didn't want to date for few years to think whether to marry her or not. She was the only one he wanted in his life from dating to marriage to' until death.

"l am not perfect. I say stupid things sometimes. I laugh when I'm not supposed to. I'm a little crazy and probably won't change. Love me or not. But I make one promise that if I say yes, I do it with my full heart."

She finished saying and stood straight leaning on him as she raised her hand and held his shirt resting her head on his chest calming herself.

She had got many proposals but the one which took her time to think of a reason for rejection was his proposal, one that touched her soul was his proposal, one that felt sincere, honest and heart touching was his proposal.

Alan's smile was very tender and his crazy scared heartbeats calmed down. He wrapped his hands around her and kissed her head.

He thought he might need too many days to hear her response. He was proud of himself for deciding to talk with her.

Aria tried to release herself but he didn't leave instead he tightened which made Aria grin mischievously and say, "Young Master Morgan, I haven't said yes yet. You should leave me now."

Alan's hands loosened hearing her, "Aria?"

"I said If I say yes, when did I agree to you?"

Alan repeated whatever she said in his head and realized she was right verbally, "Then why did you hug me?"

Aria was very calm, "Weren't you kissing me without permission? I hugged you, simple. How can that mean yes?"

Alan's face turned grim. "Who hugs just like that?"

Aria controlled her smile, "Who kisses just like that?"

"Aria!"

"Young Master Morgan, 'It's a yes' after I go on dates with a few boys as you had gone with some too. I will think about tagging you along."

Alan's face started to turn dark then realized she said yes. He pinched her cheeks before pulling her to embrace.

Aria giggled and was about to wrap her hands, her mobile rang. Seeing him not leave, she punched him before picking her mobile to see Eva face-timing.

"You, go to your room. I need to talk."

Alan started chuckling hearing her causal tone leaving the hint of elderly respect she was giving for his age and position. He ignored her and answered the call.

Aria hit her forehead and faced Eva waving her hand, "Eva, Young..." She couldn't finish, 'Young master Morgan is here.'

"Hush! My wifey is safe and sound. I almost thought you were eaten up by Prince. So what happened after I left? Is my goddess ditching me? Sob, sob... What will I do without you? I'm going to beat up the prince. How dare he take my wife away?... By the way! I didn't even start properly, why are you already blushing?"

Aria moved her hand away to show Alan who just stopped laughing and waved his hand at Eva whose eyes were wide open with her mouth in shock.

Alan helped Aria to hold mobile so that two can fit on the screen.

Eva pointed at the screen moving her finger seeing Alan keep his elbow on Aria's shoulder and he was elbowed by Aria eventually.

"Eva!"

"Evvie!"

"Young Miss Miller" Aria couldn't make her talk and she didn't know whether to laugh or not.

"Ms.Miller! Don't worry. I will not take your wife away... We can share." Alan said in a straight face with a convincing tone.

Pfft -

Aria looked at Alan in horror. Eva was laughing her ass off.

Alan moved Aria's head to face Eva. The latter excitedly announced, "Arrie! My love! You can't escape me. Even Prince is on my side..."
