CHAPTER 12: Lighting up the room...

Celeste

I sit there looking into the face I once thought I was in love with when he was a boy. This face is different, though. It is a man's face. Looking back at me are deep blue eyes, a sharp square jaw, and chiseled cheekbones. Gorgeous dimples accentuate the whole thing. My favorite part, as it always had been, is his big bright smile. That smile always warms my heart. Now, even though I am looking at his face, I can't help but notice his body had turned into a man's body too. Everything on him is rock - hard and perfect. Okay, back to reality, Celeste. Sigh. "Ajax, I have never hated you. You and your dad were there for us during the worst time in our lives. I will always hold you two in my heart for that. Who knows? Maybe that's why I thought what I felt for you back then was the beginning of love. Maybe it was just respect and appreciation."
