Chapter 66: Underlying Meaning

Throughout the entirety of breakfast, I noticed how Aries seemed rather fidgety. I wanted to inquire about it but from the subtle touch and glances in my direction, I couldn't help but feel overly concious.

Maybe he is acting like that because he is feeling as concious of me as I am of him...

However, unlike what I thought... Aries excused himself the moment we were done with breakfast. I follow him to the entrance, feeling rather silly for thinking he would only be thinking about me.

"I'll be back as soon as I can." Aries smiles at me, gingerly touching my cheek as I stare into his azure eyes.

He stands still, silently gazing at me before pulling me by my waist closer to him. I gasp in surprise before he leans in and kisses me gently on the lips.

I grab hold of his jacket, wrapping my arms around his waist as he slowly pulls away from me. Aries smiles fondly at me, kissing my cheek before ruffling through my hair.
