Kris entered the elevator and Lena pressed the floor b.u.t.ton for them to go down. Lena being on his back reminded her of there touchy adventures.
Kris spoke first. "Can...we.. keep our relations.h.i.+p on the down-low?"
Lena"s heart was a bit sad. She was more of an explosive type of person who would scream to the world and show off her boyfriend. "Do you have many enemies who would kidnap me and use me against you?" Lena asked. That was usually how it was in movies.
Kris chuckled. "Yes and no. I do have many enemies, but not those who would kidnap you. My enemies who I have known to do that, I already cut off all their ties to this world."
"We can keep it down-low... but not too long okay?"
"Lena..." Kris put her down and caressed her cheeks. "I only want it on the DL so I can have you just by myself for a while. Once the world knows, it"s like a royal wedding. You will always have people taking pictures of us, asking when we are going to get married, making scandals of us, and so much more."
Her past relations.h.i.+p with Andy had been since a younger age so they never had that much of an attention. They were called the childhood sweethearts. But for Kris, he had never been with someone at all and considered his status too, it will cause more of an uproar.
And there will be troublemakers ahead in the future, and Kris only wanted them to experience the honeymoon phase of a relations.h.i.+p before they hit the b.u.mps on the road.
"Sorry, I --" She was going to say, I didn"t think of that.
Kris pecked her lips. "Don"t be. After we get to have our own fun, you can scream all you want and show off your handsome man wherever you want."
She smiled. "Yeah, my handsome man."
Kris held her hand and he chose a black sports car for their trip. Lena still had no idea where they were going or what they will be doing.
One good thing about having an underground parking lot was that no one would see the person exiting the building. Kris" car had high tinted gla.s.s, so no one can spot them together too.
Lena wanted to hold Kris" hand but he was driving stick.
"Are you going to give me a hint? Or it is completely a surprise?" Lena questioned.
"Surprise. If I tell you, and you don"t like it, you might leave me on our first date."
First date... together with Kris. Lena liked it already. "I believe in you."
"Then you can"t make fun of me. I planned it last minute..." He cleared his throat. "And I have not done anything like this before."
"I know." Lena smiled. She was very curious what the brain of Kris would think of.
"What did you do on your first date?" Kris asked.
Lena looked at him. "You really want to know? What did I do with my ex? You don"t have to worry, everything about you is already way better than him. I mean EVERYTHING."
"I just want to know you more. And do things that you have not done before." Kris glanced at Lena.
"Well then, if you must know. They say that if you kiss your boyfriend at the top of the Ferris wheel, you"ll be together forever."
"Did you kiss?"
"I did. But we were not together forever, nor was it romantic either. Movies are lies. The seat smelled of sweat and I was more scared of falling off because of the seat rocked back and forth too much. It was also noisy."
Lena turned her body to the side so she could stare at her handsome man. "I personally would say our first kiss was better. I can still remember it so clearly. Grabbing an attractive man and just kissing him senseless in front of everyone, marking him as one of mine?"
"One... of yours?" Kris raised his brow.
"Well... we were not dating then.. so yes.. one of my plenty of fish in the sea. I needed to mark the handsome ones."
"Did you mark anyone else?"
Lena turned her body and sat straight again. "You see... I never had time to mark others because that first one was already everywhere in front of my face. He kept chasing me home."
"Yes... and you marked me twice babe. Don"t forget your canine bite."
"Ah!!" Lena covered her eyes but let it go shortly afterward. "You can"t keep counting because you made countless marks on me!" Lena touched her neck. "How many did you do?!"
Lena only glanced at her body for a bit when she got dressed and brushed her teeth.
Kris smirked. "You don"t want to know." Kris changed the topic. "Who was your first kiss?"
Lena glared at Kris. Is he trying to remind her of childish mistakes and rubbed her stupidity on her? Even so, if Kris wanted to know, she does not mind telling him. Some people say that your current man asked because they might have small insecurity or they are just compet.i.tive in nature.
She tried to recall when her first kiss would be. As a child, you would kiss your mom and dad and other families but her real first kiss would be... Lena gasped and stared at Kris.
Kris looked at Lena weird. "What is it?" He asked.
Lena put her hands on her cheeks. "It"s embarra.s.sing. I mean stupid... very stupid!"
"That makes me more curious."
Lena would have a.s.sumed that her first kiss was with Andy but no! Because of Ming Zhao, her memory of Fat Blondie resurfaced. "You can"t make fun of me..."
"I won"t. I just want to know. So I can erase every single memory you have of them." Kris replied.
Lena put her hands down. "It was before Andy... and just when I had met Hazel. She was really cool so I followed and did lots of weird things with her. There was one boy I would bully a lot, we called him Fat Blondie. I did not really want to bully him but I did so because I got the attention and approval from Hazel.
That was when I was more stupid and young. Anyways, Fat Blondie bribe me with a chocolate bar and said that I can have it if I kissed him. We called him fat but he was more like chubby cute so I did... actually I did it three times because I wanted three chocolate bars. Aiya! This is stupid.. I am so.." Lena covered her cheeks again.
Kris burst into a small laugh. Lena"s weakness against food bribery has started since she was a cub. Lena slapped him on his shoulder. "You said you won"t make fun of me."
"I am not. You were just too cute I laughed."
Lena laughed a bit too. "I am sorry okay? If you buy me a chocolate bar too, I"ll kiss you."
"Okay, I"ll buy you an entire lifetime supply of them so I can have a lifetime supply of Lena"s kisses."
Kris stopped the car and bent over to kiss Lena on the lips. Just a sweet second of tasting her soft lips. "We"re here."
Lena got out of the car herself. They were up north by the coast of the ocean. But it was not the sea that caught her eyes, but a romantic, horse-drawn carriage.
