Love At First Sight

Getting ready for the day, am still troubled over the fact I changed my clothes without being aware of that.

This haven't happened to me before, why start now?

No, it's not possible at all. I must find the cause of that. Believing I did it isn't an option at all.

Accusing Mate of doing that isn't an option at all. With the door being locked, it's not possible for Mate to enter into my room, change my clothes, tuck me into bed, and also lock the door behind him.

It's just not possible at all.

"Are you still thinking on the clothes?" Mate raise a brow at me.

"Should you be the one, wouldn't you also think on it?"

Who wouldn't be troubled over that fact?

"Just forget about those stuffs Lat. Thinking won't solve the mystery, it does nothing more than keep you miserable. "

" But... "

" No buts. Let's go ahead to work. I need to complete the task I have there before evening."

" Is there anywhere you're going in the evening? "

Aside from my night job, I have nowhere else to be.

"Am taking you out for dinner." Saying those words, he leaves the house.

His words made me think more on the words he said last night.

Am I dreaming, or did Mate label himself as my boyfriend?

"Are you coming, or have you changed your mind already?" He calls.

"Am coming!" I run out of the house, my shoe making a sound as I ran.

Mate is standing at my side of the car* That's my side of course. I can't drive, so am always at the passenger's side.

That's my own personal side. *

"What are you doing there!" I ask in urgency. " I can't drive, you know?"

Should he allow me drive, I might end up crashing his vehicle.

"Am not asking you to drive. Am just opening the door for my princess." He winks.

"Don't call me that!" Blushing scarlet red, I hurry to my side of the car, and slide in without looking at him.

Right now, I believe my cheeks will be redder than a tomatoes.

"You look so cute when you blush, are you aware of that?"

" Go on to your side. We'll be late." Turning my face to the side, I prevent him from seeing the scarlet colour of my cheeks.

I really don't want to die in embarrassment.

"You're also cute when you're embarrassed." He chuckles at that before he gently close my door.

"Shut up!"

With him already at his side, I turn my face towards my window. This way, the air coming from the window can cool my blazing cheek.

"Why are you looking out the window? Is there anything interesting out there?" He leans in closer as he asked those words, his hands fiddling with my seat belt before he tightens them around me.

With his hands gone, I turn to face him, only to gasp at the close proximity of his face to mine.

"What are you doing?!" I shriek, my breathe coming out in gasps as I look at his mouth.

"What do you think am doing?" He ask with a smirk. "What does it look like am doing?"

"I..." I swallow. "I don't know!"

" You don't?" He grins, petting me on my hair, he returns to his side. " We need to go now. According to a certain person, we're already late."

The Taly Tame company is one large monstrosity. Just the outside is enough to intimidate a person to submission.

The glass panes on it makes the building to glitter in the sun.

"Wow." Already out of the car, I look up at the most beautiful building I've ever seen, well aside from Mate's house.

I've being in this city for almost two years, but I've never come across this building before. It's as if this part of the building is restricted to others, especially me.

"You love it?" Mate ask in smug tone.

"Love it?" I give him a skeptical look, " I more than in love with this."

Should there be another word greater than love, then that's what I would have made use of.

"Am glad you do. This company is ours." He says with a happy grin.

"Ours, or yours?" I give him a side look. One that clearly translates into think well before you conclude about things.

"As my boyfriend.." Walking close to me, he wraps his hand round my waist in other to bring me a bit close to him. "anything that belongs to me is yours. You don't have to be shy about that." He peck my cheeks.

"What?" I blush deeply, my eyes darting around to check if there are others walking past, but there's none.

"You heard me right Lat. Everything that belongs to me is yours, and everything that belongs to you is mine. As boyfriends, we ought to share things between us." He nibbles my bottom lip.

"Mate..." I try to push him off me, but he held on strongly. His teeth gently bitting my lips.

"You're my boyfriend Lat. You need to get used to this."

Can my stupid heart stop bearing fast already? Why must it take to its normal fast beating at a time like this? It's just not fair!!!

"Am not your boyfriend. Last I checked, I never agreed to be your boyfriend, neither did you ask me to be one."

Scratch that, Mate have always being my boyfriend in my mind, but right now I don't know what to believe.

Mate have being my saviour ever since we were little. His affections right now is totally confusing me. It makes me want to bash my head on something.

"I don't need to ask you that. You've always being my boyfriend. Why else did you think I promised to be back?

Why do you think I named all my properties with both of our names?

Why do you think I took you back home with me when I met you?"
