CHAPTER 11

“I did but now it’s time to let it all out. Please bear with me and if it’s hard for you don’t give me an answer yet,” Harvey said and Ruby began to wonder if he really was going to do what she was thinking.

“I promise not to hurt you,” she joked with him and he smiled at her.

“By now you should have noticed that what we have is not normal but I want you to know that you mean everything to me. I know we are siblings and you are my older sister but I just couldn’t help it. You can hate me all you want but I want you to know how I truly feel for you,” Harvey said and took a break.

“And what exactly do you feel for your older sister Harvey?” Ruby asked gazing into those sexy eyes.

“I love you, not as my sister but as a woman. I want to hold you, kiss you, embrace you, make love to you and stay with you all the time,” he told her as he cupped her face with his hands.

Ruby couldn’t answer at that moment as her head was busy processing the confession she had just heard. All these time she toyed with him and never considered his feelings at all. She was really a cruel person. She blamed herself a lot that she found tears rolling down her cheeks. Harvey used his thumps to wipe the tears away.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to make you cry,” Harvey apologized even when he didn’t do anything wrong.

Ruby leaned in without saying a word and kissed Harvey on the lips. Harvey froze for a second before he kissed her back. They didn’t say anything to each other but consumed themselves in the passionate kiss that says it all. They were suddenly interrupted by a knock which made them broke the kiss. Ruby began to laugh all of a sudden and Harvey joined her too.

“Does that mean you accepted my proposal?” Harvey asked.

“What do you think?” Ruby answered him again with another question as she stood up from the bed to go and answer the door.

“Are you really going to do this?” he asked her and she smiled at him.

“That’s your homework little brother,” she said as she went to the door.

Ruby peeped through the door to see who was there and it was Nancy. She opened the door and Nancy got in. Nancy looked around and saw Harvey on the bed and she blushed.

“Don’t have any silly ideas. What are you doing here?” Ruby asked her best friend.

“Everyone is gathering. I couldn’t reach both your cell phones so I decided to come and pick you up. I hope I didn’t disturb anything,” Nancy said as if she didn’t know what she had just done.

“I would have killed you if you weren’t this beautiful,” Harvey said as he approached the two of them.

Nancy patted Harvey and smiled at him.

“Come and find me later, I have a present for you,” Nancy told Harvey and Ruby looked at her friend.

“What are you plotting?’

“Nothing, I am just borrowing your dear brother for a moment later. Don’t tell me you are jealous?”

“You can have him to yourself,” Ruby said and walked away.

Harvey caught up with her and he gave her a back hug.

“What are you doing?”

“I’m going to miss you so please let me hug you for a second,” he told her and she found herself grinning.

Nancy cleared her throat and they broke apart again.

“Are you two trying to show off right now? I should probably call my man now and tell him how lonely I am thanks to you,” Nancy said and began to walk to the door.

“I will be behind you. Let me just take my bag. Love you,” Ruby said as she watched her friend leave.

“I better go and prepare my things too. I will see you soon,” Harvey said and left the suite too.

Ruby felt happy seeing how things were turning out. It was really a good idea for her to come for this trip after all. She had gained a lot from just coming. She took out her bag and put her cell phone, wallet and her makeup inside. She applied some gloss on her lips and checked herself well before she left the suite to join others.

When she arrived the juniors were filled with joy. They just couldn’t wait to start their touring. She found her friends standing and talking together and she joined them.

When she joined them she could tell that they were talking about her.

“Seriously guys; what did she say?”

“Nothing we don’t know about,” Alex said with a smile.

“Congratulations,” Jack said.

What could she get angry for when they were all cheering up for her like that?

“Thanks.”

“I know you are so happy now but you need to know that starting from today you will face so many obstacles because of the path you have just chosen. We will be with you all the way and support you, so Ruby please be strong,” Nancy told her.

She knew exactly what she meant. What she was about to do was something that will shake the world, cause a lot of conflicts but she couldn’t help it, which is why she had to have a deep conversation with Harvey once all this was over.
