Akeilia POV

“I told you that I've forgiven you so stop bothering me. Monique please tell him to leave”. I softly bounce my head to the rhythm of the music trying to ignore Lenoy.

“He's not my problem honey. I'll be right back”. She walked off gazing at her phone screen. I rolled my eyes.

The party is on the first floor. The music isn't too high. I'm looking at everyone enjoying themselves. I told my employees that they can invite anyone they wish to.

I need to be distracted until I decide to talk to Michael. I've been trying so hard to forget him. Not really to forget him, but to straighten my thoughts.

I look out the door and made a sigh.

“I'll be leaving the next two weeks. The least you can do is talk to me”. I sigh again and sip some of my juice.

I'm in a blue dress. It has short sleeves. Tight at the top, slack all the way down stopping above my knee. Flat white shoes. If you haven't noticed, blue is my favorite colour.

I put the glass on the table.

“Do you want me to kiss you goodbye Lenoy?” He blinked a few times. “Well that'd be nice actually”. I chuckled a bit not in the mood to be angry with him. He'd been apologizing for a few days now. I've already forgiven him, but I enjoy him begging me to.

I look at the door. My heart raced when I saw Michael walked in. You know in the movies or cartoon when someone who looks really hot walked in a party the whole place stopped to look at their beauty? As if an angel sent from heaven? Yes this is something like that. The only difference is that I'm the one looking at his beauty because obviously no one else noticed him yet.

He's dressed in blue and white. The pants is white. The shirt is blue. He look as if he has a white marina underneath the blue button front shirt. By the way he's scanning the place I can tell that he's searching for someone.

I quickly looked away the moment I saw him turn his head to this direction. I leaned at Lenoy's ears. “Hold my hand”. He chuckled.

“Why?”

“Just. do it”. I said through gritted teeth. He did as I told him.

“You know that people are gonna talk right?”

“Everyone is minding own business. Let's go up to my office”. I walked off and so did he.

“I really don't get you”.

“Michael!”

“Michael!”

People started yelling.

“Omg Mr Perry!”

I feel Lenoy tense and tried to pull from my grip. I gripped tighter so he know that he shouldn't let go.

“No Akeilia!” He yanked his hand from mine as we approached the elevator.

I stopped. Turn around and look at him.

“I'm tired of being your puppet. Right now your only using me to make Michael jealous. If you don't wanna talk to me after this I don't give a f*ck Akeilia”. I exhale shakily.

“You know very well that I have feelings for you yet your still trying to play with it. I know that I'm in the friend category on your list of relationships so stop playing with me. Yes Michael did something that hurt you badly, but even the people we love hurt us Akeilia. I'm sure you know that. I'm not gonna allow you to make Michael hate me more than he does, thinking that I'm trying to compete with him. If you wanna make him jealous fine, but I'm not gonna let you use me”.

He turned and walked away. I feel a tear fall on my cheek. I wiped it off, but the more I wipe the more they fall. My hands started to shake. My chest tightening up.

I'm angry but I don't want to be. He's right, but I'm still angry.

He's polite and generous, but he's not stupid. I was. using him. I should've thought about how he'd feel about it. I hate how selfish I am at times.

What he'd said to me doesn't make me hate him. It only hurts.

I watch the crowd around Michael asking him questions. Are those reporters? It seem as if they were expecting him to be here.

I can see him peeping every second he got smiling at them half-hearted, uncomfortably answering questions.

Like.

“How's your hand and leg?” And some other stupid questions.

It surprised me that no one is talking about our baby. Is it that no one knows about it? Who do they think I'm pregnant for? Is it Lenoy? Is it because Lenoy isn't famous that no one is talking about it? I wonder how many people know that I'm pregnant. My belly isn't big, but it isn't that small.

“Ms Shaw?” Oh great.

“Are you alright?” Anna. One of my employee asked, eating fruits from a disposable plate looking concerned.

“Allergy. Thanks for the concern”. She nod with a smile.

“Congrats on the baby”. She said before walking off. If she know I guess others do too.

“I can't answer anymore questions guys”.

Where's Monique?

I look around but no sight of her. Where did she disappear to?

I look back at Michael. I see him trying to look through the crowd again. This time I didn't look away because I want him to see that I see him. I think it's time he and I talk.

I walk towards the crowd of reporters. What are they even doing here? He's walking with crutches. Don't they think he need to rest?

Yes I'm concerned.

It killed me when I thought about how I should've been there for him. Massaging him. But I had to punish him.

“Excuse me!” I'm pushing my way through. I'm hearing multiple clicks as they took pictures.

“Mr Perry when will you be getting married?”

“Excuse me!” Damn it. This is annoying. I stopped when I'm close enough.

It breaks my heart to see him. He looks just the way he did five years ago when he was chasing after me.

I care about him.

I picked up the phone plenty times to call him this week, but I didn't. I didn't because I wanted to test myself. See how long I can do without him. To see if I could live without him if any anything should happen to him.

I can't.

What if he'd died in that accident? My baby wouldn't get the chance to touch nor speak to its father. I can't stay away from him any longer. If I'm not certain about anything, one thing I'm sure of is that death is inevitable. I won't waste anymore of my time here on earth avoiding him. I wanna spend the rest of my days with him.

“One more question”.

“One more question Mr Perry”.

The music stops.

“No more questions. I'm sorry. I can't answer anymore”. Just after saying that. his eyes met mine. I see a glint of hope, and the expression of love is fully evident.

I kept looking at him.

“A rumor has been going around. Is it true that Ms Shaw is pregnant for you?”

He look at me as if asking for permission to say. All the reporters look at me between them. I'm sure they were too busy interrogating Michael that they hadn't noticed I was standing here.

“Ms Shaw”.

“Ms Shaw”.

“Ms Shaw”. So freaking annoying. They were kinda closing in on me so I pushed my way to Michael.

My arm brushed his. A tingling sensation ran through that part of my skin. In no time standing so close to him have me desiring him.

“Are you pregnant for Mr Perry Ms Shaw?” They asked. Curiosity bright in their eyes. They just love a good story.

I look up at Michael. This time with a smile. He relaxed a little before he gave me a half smile.

“Yes”. He answered instead of me. My employees and others gasped. So I guess they thought that Lenoy was responsible. They must be real confused.

“She's going to be the mother of all my children”. A perfect smile formed on his beautiful face.

“I wouldn't want it to be with anyone else”. He softly said to me.

“Thanks for these”. Leon?

He took the crutches from Michael and wink at me. Michael got down on one knee in front of me. I look down at him who's looking up at me with those caring eyes. I didn't miss the small frown as the touch the ground.

“Oh my god is he gonna propose?” A random person said.

My heart beat increases. I can hear it pounding in my ears. Oh my god. Is this really happening? Oh my god Oh my god Oh my god. I'm trying very hard right now not to scream. Also to maintain a calm expression.

“I know I did you wrong. Honestly I'm sorry. I'm not perfect. I never will be... But I prefer to go through hell with you by my side rather to be without you. I wanna see your smile every morning. I wanna be there when your happy, sad, even angry. Let it all out on me. I can take it. But what I can't take is living without you. I've lost you many time Akeilia”. Tears slowly clouds my eyes.

“That's why I wanna make sure I never do again”. He stretched his hand into his back pocket. He took out a small black box. Oh my god.

I inhale deeply.

Let him finish Akeilia. Let him finish.

The small whispers of everyone stopped. Even the reporters. He opened the box.

“Akeilia Nicolia Shaw. Will you please be with me for the rest of your life, till death do us part?” I feel like I'm dying. But dying with his love that's radiating on me.

The ring is gold. Small gold decor are on the round part of the ring. Encrusted with a small bear head consist of the the eyes and nose. Small diamonds are in the eyes and nose.

It reminded me of the nickname he gave me. It must be custom made.

He's waiting Akeilia. I shook my head from left to right. People gasped and some made dissatisfying sounds.

I actually saw a crack of hurt in his eyes. He look away from me. His chest visibly moving up and down as he slowly began to lower his hand, slowly, as if waiting for me to change my mind.

The thing is I never said no.

“Your crazy if you think that I'm going to tell you no”. I smile and a tear fell from my eyes. He look at me with a smile so wide and happiness gleaming in his eyes.

He stand and hug me by the shoulders. A few started to clap and yell, then the rest followed.

“I love you”. He whispered.

He wrapped his hands around my waist.

“I know”. He lay his lips on mine. I can smell his minty breath.

I quickly parted mine, giving him full dominance. I just want to swallow in his love.

I don't give a damn who's watching.

After a while of passionate kiss and devouring each other's lips, we stopped.

“I was waiting for you Michael. I thought you wouldn't show up”.

“I've always been there for you. We've been through so much”. He bend his neck placing kisses on my neck. Oh my.

“I never let you go even then. Why would I do that now?” He whispered at my ear.

I gave him my left hand.

“Put it on”. I quickly told him. He take the ring from the box and gladly put it on my ring finger. Perfect fit.

I observed it for a few. In no time I look back at him. “I love you. I wouldn't be more happy than to be your wife”. He lay his hand on my belly. It feels so right. So good.

“We're a family now”. I lay my hand over his.

“Ok that's enough everyone ”. Leon told the reporters holding Michael crutches.

“Give them some time alone. Will ya?” They left the party as if they got everything they wanted.

The music started up again. But not very loud.

Monique walked up beside Leon grinning at me. They both knew.

“Somebody is getting mar-ried”. She opened her arms shaking her shoulders walking up to me. I laughed because she look weird jiggling her shoulders like that with such a huge belly in front of her.

“I'm not gonna pull away to hug you this time”. I told her remembering the time she pulled Michael away to hug me the day I found out about my pregnancy.

She pout at me but I turned away hugging tighter on Michael with my head on his firm chest. I miss him.

Leon and Michael chuckled.

“I'm always happy when I'm with you”. I told him. I'm not sure that he heard.

“I know”. He kissed the top of my head. Guess he did.

“That was like... one of the best proposal ever”. Anna commented. I pulled away from Michael. Leon gave him back his crutches.

Everyone- well most of everyone congratulated us. Not everyone will be happy for us. I don't care. They can kiss my ass.

Michael and I moved to a corner of the building. He leaned his crutches on the wall.

We're not done yet. I still wanna know why he did it. I don't regret it though. Don't get me wrong. I preferred getting pregnant like this, than being pregnant for Lenoy. But I just wanna know why.

We're both leaning on the wall facing each other.

“We still have things to discuss”. I seriously told him. He stopped smiling and got more serious.

He sigh.

“I know. I know that you want an explanation, but honestly I have nothing else to say than...When it came across my mind all I thought about was how much I love you. I'm sorry if you were looking for some other answer. I didn't like the idea at first, but I just wanted. you. I wanted to take you. I wanted you to be mine”. He rub his hand over head. I glanced at my beautiful ring.

I'm waiting for him to continue.

“I know that no matter what I have to say or how I tried to twist and turn it, it still meant that I took advantage of you. If I could take it-”. I rest my hand on his sweet pinkish lips.

“I don't want you to say that last part. I'm pregnant for you Michael. I don't regret it”. I'm not gonna scold him about it. I'm done with that. I just wanted to hear his side.

I removed my hand feeling a bit ashamed. I know it was painful when he kneel. I saw it on his face. He's always going the extra mile for me. It's my turn now.

Moreover.

“I should've been there for you. Your hurt and I was busy trying to teach you a lesson. I'm sorry about that”.

“I was upset about that. But I accept your apology”. I playfully glare at him. I wanted to hear that it's OK.

“I was upset about the lesson. I deserved it. Even though it hurt. Just the part where you should've been the one to take care of me. Instead you allowed Sara to volunteer”. What? My eyes widen.

“Y...You allowed her?”

“I had no other choice”. He seriously told me looking apologetic.

“What?” I don't believe this.

“Are you saying that you couldn't hire someone. What about Wendy? Even if it was her it wouldn't have been so bad, but Sara Michael. After what she tried to do and know how she feels about you you allowed her to see where only I should see? Even after she tried to break us apart with her bitch friend Debra you-”. His laughing cut me off. That's when I know he's joking. I should've known better.

I slapped him on the arm. The good one.

“You look so damn hot when your upset. Extra hot”.

He moved closer.

“Kiss me”. I told him desperately. I love the smell of his minty fresh breath.

I moaned just as his lips touched mine and shut my eyes. He wrapped one hand around my waist. He tried to enter my mouth with his tongue but I didn't allow him. He needs to work for it and I think he know that. I open my eyes smiling under his kiss.

He pushed closer, closing our bodies leaving no gap, so that not even air can pass through. He took the hand he had on the wall, rested it on my breast. The one to the wall where no one can see. But I'm sure if they look close enough they'll see that his hand is there.

“What if someone see us?”

“Your my fiancee”. He smile conceitedly, lightly panting. “Just relax k bear”. A moan escaped my lips. This time automatically, after he squeezed my breast. Thing is I'm not in a bra. No one would know unless they touch my breast.

I look around to see if anyone's prying, but of course I wouldn't know.

“You know that these are gonna start getting heavy real soon right?” I know he meant that I should wear a bra. But I couldn't answer because he planted his lips back on mine before I could.

I shut my eyes.

“Hmm”. I moaned after he slowly started to massage my breast. I feel my hormones rising while my walls twitched continuously.

He pushed his tongue trying to enter. I still won't let him in. He lightly chuckled.

He pressed his tongue against my lips again. “Hmm”. I heavily breath out after he pulled the dress from over my breast. He flick his finger over my nipple. Oh god.

I feel him slip his finger at his lip. To wet it, I think.

Oh no.

I can feel the wetness of his thumb and index fingers as he pinched my nipple. A little while after he slipped one of his finger over it. I exhaled deeply in pleasure after he started to softly pinch on it again, then flick flicking it. I feel my pantie soaking same time my walls clamping over and over once again. I had to tighten my walls so it'd stop throbbing. I can feel the pleasure increasing.

“Michael you can't- hmm”. He slipped his tongue in my mouth. Just like that.

Couldn't he gave me another chance?

He pull my dress back over my breast before he hold onto the back of my head demanding more of me. Sucking me in.

I relaxed myself and allow him to take me. I wrap my arms around his neck. He put the other hand around my waist.

I can feel the laughter on his lips because of his victory.

I feel as if I wanna have an orgasm already. How long haven't I had sex? Gosh.

“Hmm Michael...please”. I said catching some breath. His beautiful face glow with cockiness.

He chuckled. I feel as if the kiss drunk me.

“I thought you could hold your breath longer than that baby”.

“That's not wh-”.

“Noo. I believe you were getting too excited and wanted to stop me right?” He grinned.

I slap his face playfully.

“Where-”. I got cut off after a glass broke and a loud scream.

Did you expect Michael to propose?

How did you feel about their engagement?

What do you think about Lenoy's reaction towards Akeilia?

What do you think about Akeilia and Michael make out scene?

“What do you think is happening?
“Where-”. I got cut off after a glass broke and a loud scream.
