Bestfriends and Butterflies Thirty: KAYDEN
I force a big ridiculous smile over my face, not feeling like saying anything. My mom hugs me and gives me a light peck on my left cheek."Alright big boy." She dusts off my shoulders. "Take care of yourself. I love you.""I love you too mum."I know she gets on my nerves sometimes, but I still love her.She hugs me again before turning to Lisa, Sandra and Ethan. She hugs them too before she leaves. At the door, she waves at us before disappearing outside and into the Black G-wagon she drove here in. We all stand at the open door entrance and watch her pull out of the compound. Seconds later, the car zooms off, definitely on its way to the airport.I sigh and plop down on the mahogany chair beside me."Your mum is still so intense Kayden." Sandra blurts, hissing through her teeth."I nearly peed my pants dude." Ethan adds.Lisa simply laughs. "Come on guys. We all know how Aunt Caroline is. But damn she still looks so young and fresh and—""Ok everyone." I cut in, knowing where that c

In this surreal moment, all I can see, all I can breathe, is Kayden.At first, surprise freezes my body to ice, keeping my eyes open, but then the firecracking sensations of Kayden's soft lips moving on mine begins to heat up every hair fiber of my skin. I flutter my eyes close, welcoming it, allowing myself to be lost in him and in this breathtaking kiss.I have waited for so long to feel this way, and now that it is happening, it is everything I have ever dreamed of it to be and more.He tastes like buttermint, just the same way he tasted the last time we kissed. His hands cup my cheeks as his lips continue to claim my mouth, tender but firm, moving expertly over each of my lips with insatiable fire and need, allowing me to also simultaneously taste his lips and not just one. I grip the soft material of his sleeveless shirt to support my stance as his heated lips continue to send zaps and bolts of electricity down my spine, nearly crippling me to the floor.God, this feels so good.

We snap back our eyes to each other, our hands still gripping the saucepan."Give me the pan Kayden. I want to wash it. You can go check the pizza before it burns."He tries to resist, but my pulling grip on the saucepan is tight. He finally succumbs, seeing how hellbent I am about being the one to wash the saucepan. Of course I can't let him do everything in this kitchen alone.As I wash the saucepan, he brings out the pizza. The aroma fills the air, and I can definitely tell that it is chicken pizza. My favorite.Done with washing the saucepan, I wipe it with the dishcloth before placing it back with the other kitchen pots and utensils. Kayden has already carried the pizza to the table at the center of the living room. Just as he walks into the kitchen to carry the tray containing the mugs of milk, I grab the tray from where it is seated on the kitchen counter. Kayden opens his mouth, probably to argue with me, but I brush past him and head into the living room, hearing his footstep

Sunlight fliters into the room from the windows, falling over Lisa's beautiful sleeping face. She lies on her back, calm and peaceful, her hair sprawled over the pillow as her chest rises up and down in steady quiet breaths.God, she is so beautiful. . . . . . She stirs beside me, her face that was once facing the ceiling now turned to me. Her eyes flutter open, her dark long lashes giving way to the beauty of her deep blue eyes.Her lips curve into a beautiful smile that stops my heart for a moment when she catches me staring down at her.God, I will give anything to be the only one who exclusively gets to watch her as she wakes up every morning. . . . . ."Hey," she mutters, sounding sleepy. "Good morning."I smile down at her. "Good morning."We stare at each other in silence, drinking each other in. I still can't believe that she is mine, that after all these years, I finally get to hold her and kiss her and stare at her like this without having to throw away my face every time sh

"Are you expecting someone?" Lisa asks, one of her hands placed lightly over my chest."No," I shake my head. "But I guess it is probably Sandra or Ethan or both of them."Her face lits up. "Might be true. Well, if they are the ones at the door, then I can't wait to hear how ridiculous their karaoke date went."I laugh. "Ethan can't sing shit."She chuckles a laugh. "Yeah I know that. Well, let me go che—"I place my finger on her lips, silencing her. "Stay here. I will go."I turn around and leave the kitchen, but not without hearing Lisa chirping out, "Awwnn, that is so sweet."I halt in my tracks and snap back at her. She gets the memo, but ends up laughing. I shake my head. Just then, the door bell rings again, drawing my attention. I turn back around and head to the door.After checking through the doorbell camera and seeing that it is just Sandra and Ethan, I sigh, grateful that it is not anyone from the office.My hand moves to open the door, but I hold back midway.Wait! If Sa

FOUR MONTHS LATER"Sandra, it's been twenty minutes already. Are we not there yet?" I groan, looking out the window as Sandra's car flashes by various houses and road side shops.I turn my eyes back to her. "I hope this new boutique you are taking us to is worth your explanation for dragging me out of my house."She glances at me, flashing me a smile. "Come on babe. Relax."When Sandra came to my house this morning saying that she needed my help to grab some fashion pieces from a boutique she claims to be new in town, I agreed to help her. But I never knew the drive to the so called boutique will be this far.And I am getting tired."Are you sure we haven't passed the boutique?" I ask, shifting in my seat."No." She shakes her head, her fingers tapping on the steering wheel in tune to the hip-hop music playing from the car's radio.“It feels like we have been driving around in circles.” I complain.She laughs. "We are almost there. Come on Lisa. Just a few more minutes.""Alright." I

I roll my eyes."What?" I ask.He takes in a breath, and just as I am about to ask him again why he is stopping me from eating my chicken, he pulls out a red box from the pocket of his overcoat and gets down on one knee.His hand opens the box, and I gasp at the sight of the most beautiful diamond ring I have ever seen.My chest tightens. I can't breathe. I can't even move.I snap to Sandra. "Sandra, what is happ—"The rest of my question sinks down my throat when I catch the little witch on her feet, holding her phone in an angle that just screams that she is taking pictures of us, probably even making a video too.I turn back to Kayden, gulping in a breath. His handsome face wears a smile that is doing crazy things to my head and heart and belly."What are you doing?” I croak, barely even hearing my voice.“Can't you see? I am trying to propose to you in the middle of a Chicken Grill Spot by the corner of the street."Oh. My. God.My heart pounds against my chest as he takes my left
Bestfriends and Butterflies Epilogue One: KAYDEN
ONE MONTH LATER"Alright everyone! It is time. Let's do this!" Maggie shouts, smiling and clutching a big notepad in her arms. She is my second favourite cousin after Jennie. She also happens to be the planner of my wedding with Lisa, and ever since she resorted to the job of carrying around that notepad, I have been having a little bit of difficulty telling apart my 'real cousin Maggie' from the 'work alcoholic Maggie.'The fresh ocean breeze whips through the back of my hair, blowing some of it forward to my face. The beach is beautiful. Just the right choice of place for our wedding tomorrow. As my hands lift to push back the hair crowding over my face, Lisa appears by my side. Her smile is as infectious as usual on me. Her hands push back the hair strands from my face, doing what my hands wanted to do. She plants a soft kiss on my lips and stares up at me like I am the only man in the world."You are so fucking handsome you know that right?"I laugh, flagging my hand over my face.
