Shouldn't Have Kissed You

Chapter 35

Maya wake up the following day to find herself in the arms of her dear husband. He had cuddled her

from her back and it left her wondering when he did that. To her, they were only going to sleep and

that's what happened or at least that's what she thought till morning.

She thought for a while how she was going to get out of his arms without waking him up since she was

going to avoid him today. Not because he hugged her from behind so tight that she couldn't breath but

because he was no sober when he apologised or rather she apologised.

What if he woke up and thought that nothing had changed? That he had apologised to her and she to

him? It was better to handle this things at night to avoid bad day. Maya tried to turn so that she laid of

her back but his hold just tightened which left her wondering if he was really asleep.

His breathing was evenly and that to her meant Chris was either half asleep or he was pretending to

be. But it didn't stop her from trying again and again which all she got was firm hands around her.

Maya moved her eyes to the grandfather clock that hung on the walk to find that it was five in the

morning. She never walk up at the time, she walk up at six and her husband walk up at five twenty to

go for his morning jog.

Her breath quicken when she heard someone breath on her neck. Of course it did sent shivers down

her spine which had her hold her breath. She should've expected when she had a chance. Maybe gone

to make breakfast for him with a brewing coffee for his hangover. But no, she had to struggle to be on

her back which woke him up.

What happened to don't wake him? She had no idea herself and now, now she was going to pay for

her bad choice.

"You smell so good." Chris said still on her neck. His voice was more heavy than it usually is which

made her amused. It's the first time she heard his speak for his sleep and to be honest, it was sexy

than she hated to admit. "You smell like lavender and it's driving me crazy."

Of course it had to since he pulled her closer than she thought it was important. Her tag top had risen

up and her skin on the back touched his bare stomach. Wait, bare? Chris had worn a tee shirt and

sweatpants when they went to sleep and now he was wearing nothing since her legs and thigh were

skin to skin with his. She wanted to jump out of bed but his hold held her still.

As if reading her mind, he answered. "It was hot in the night so I got rid of my clothes." Chris planted a

perk on her neck. "The thing is that I don't know if it's you who made this place so hot or the duvet. But

not to worry I'm in my briefs not unless you want to get rid of them yourself. To be honest, I won't mind."

Those words bothered Maya so much. She didn't know why but the did and he didn't help when he

slide his one hand to her belly. Maya held her breath as if waiting for it to either go up or down but it did

none. Instead, he rubbed her belly and she couldn't miss the smirk that she felt from him on her neck.

Things had taken a wrong turn. Not how she expected them to go. She thought Chris would have a

hangover in the morning when he woke up and yet, here he was doing this sinful things to her. Yes,

sinful. She hadn't bargained for this when she laid to the bed with him last night. Please, remind her

next time when she thinks of doing that again.

Maya's thoughts were pulled back when she heard pain from where Chris had been sucking for the last

God knows how long. And that when she came to her senses and understood what he was doing. The

bastard had given her a hickey. He had given her a freaking hickey so that whoever saw her would

think she had a steamy night or morning.

"Don't worry kitten," Chris said when he felt her try to move away from him. "I was just making my

territory. So Mr. Ambrose will see that he stands no chance."

What was he talking about? Leonel wasn't interested in her, at least that's what she knew. He was just

a friend no, in fact her best friend. Yes, he had graduated from being a friend to a best friend since he

earned it. Maybe when she met him late today she would give him the good news and watch his

reaction.

But her knowing Leonel for being Leonel, he would say he knew that since the day the met and she

being Maya, she would hit his shoulder playful and call him a name and he would pretend to be hurt but

they would laugh together. So Chris had no reason to be jealous of Leonel. Wait, what was she even

saying.

She had to asking him what he was talking about but what came out of her mouth shocked her herself.

"Kitten?"

Yeah, that's what she asked and not why he wanted to mark his territory when they had less than six

months before they separate and everyone go their own way. She had thought of moving state when Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

they did that or town. Of course, she didn't want to run into her ex when they're divorced.

She didn't know why but it would hurt her when she got those papers and signed on them. It even hurt

to think of the damn divorce now. What then. What of that day? When they'll have their lawyers there to

negotiate for each one of them. But she needed nothing from him. She would leave him the way she

found him or more richer than he was.

Maya had her own money and a career to depend on. And she would be grateful that she won't go

back to her father for anything. Not for money and neither for love and affection since she would have

an idea of how it felt to be loved by people around you and not one person. That was also her other

reason to move state. To be away from her monster of her father who is a monster to her and a

blessing to others.

"Yes, kitten." Chris rubbed his noise over her neck bring Maya back to reality. "It's my name and I'll call

you that from now own. It's not like I don't like cupcake anymore. This is my original." She felt his hand

on her belly move a little high and her hand moved to stop it from moving. Of course he let out a

sexiest laugher she had never heard before. That is if she ever heard him laugh. "And you can call

me," she heard him lean to her ears and whisper, "puppy."

Maya didn't know why or how it happened but she moaned out earning her another laughter from

Chris. He was enjoying what he was doing to her and she, she didn't understand why she was reacting

to him. And just when she thought it was over, he flipped her on back and before she could register

what was happening, he was on top of her. This time, her top only covered her breast and her breath

was heavy and so was is.

She wanted to push him away. She really did but her hands didn't even attempt to pull her top down.

It's like every part of her body had their own mind now. Her legs wanted to wrap around her husband's

body, her eyes wanted to watch her crush since highschool all day long long and her hands, they're the

worst. She didn't even want to think of what they wanted.

"I've never seen anything so beautiful like you in the morning." Chris was rubbing her cheeks. "I'm even

jealous. Jealous of the mattress since you sleep on to of it and not me. Jealous of the duvet for

covering your whole body every night and not me as I'm doing now. I'm jealous of the pillow for making

your hair mess every time you sleep on them and not my hands who do much want to do that when we

make love. I'm jealous of the clothes for hiding that sexy body of your and covering it up when it's my

hands, lips and eyes should be doing that, kitten. I'm jealous kitten. Jealous that your friends get to

make you laugh and not me. I'm really really jealous of so many things that I can't mention them at one

go. Cause I'm even jealous of the sun and rain for kissing your beautiful skin with rays and drops of

water when my lips have not done that yet. I need to stop there."

Now she, was out of breath. And it had her wonder why? Chris was the one supposed to be out for

breath for speaking to her without him stopping. He was jealous. Jealous because of her. The things

around her made him jealous. Was that a good thing? Was she also jealous? She had no idea why she

was happy but she felt like she could face the world head on. Chris was now rubbing her lips which had

her stare at his hazel eyes. They're always blue when he was mad but now, now they're changing from

blue to brown.

And then he did what she wasn't expecting him to do. Lean in. Her breath was caught in her lungs. And

she needed air more than she ever thought she did before. Chris was about to crash his lips with hers

when she moved her head to the side and he, he kissed her cheek.

"Com'no kitten, I know you're feeling what I'm feeling." He moved a little bit and that's when she felt

him. He was too excited for her and that gave her the strength that she needed to push him away. He

fell on the other side of the bed laughing and she wasted no time get of the bed and moving away.

"Why are you so mean?" He pulled the duvet to cover himself still laughing. "He was just too excited

and he doesn't bit, you know."

Maya brushed and looked at her watch. Thanks to him, the excited him she was on her feet at six.

"I need to get ready for work." She began to walk towards her suitcase.

"Please, don't sway that arse like that." She heard Chris say from her back. "He is already hurt as it is

and trust me, it's not easy to calm him down. If you understand what I mean."

She did. Kyle had told her this things. Of course her innocent ears didn't want to hear anything but now

she was thankful to her friend. If not for her, she could have asked him what he meant. After search for

what she was going to wear, Maya walked into the bathroom without looking at Chris. But she didn't

miss the moan he let out before she closed the door behind her and locked it at that matter.

Of course, this was the first time she locked herself in the bathroom since the other days he was

always out jogging and she left before he could come back. As for Sunday's, she would wake up before

him and get ready to for service. So, there was no need to lock the damn door. But today, there was a

need and that's why she did it.

Once Maya was done with dressing up, she opened the draw and pulled out a comb. The hickey that

her husband gave her was on the right hence forcing her to comb her hair on the right. She just prayed

to heavens that there would be no emergency today which will force her to hold her hair in ponytail.

Once done, she unlocked the door and hoped that Chris would be back to sleep but he sat up looking a

the bathroom door. Their eyes locked and at that time, nothing existence apart from the two of them.

Maya didn't know why but her eyes moved from his to his lips which they stayed there for minutes. She

knew he was watching her when his lips turned onto a smirk. That made her move her eyes from them

but she went lower than that.

She watched the way his chest rose and fell telling her that he was breathing heavily. His abs were so

perfect that she wanted to run her hands on them and then she moved lower than that but to her

disappointment, he had covered himself with the duvet.

"You know, you can always come back to bed." Of course, he had seen her frown. "This time you can

see him and feel him at the same time."

Maya looked away and walked to her collection of handbags. She wore a grey dress along with black

flat shoes which left her with one choice, a black purse or handbag. She was red and that's why she

walked away without him looking at him again. Once she took her purse, she looked for her car keys

and her phone from the bag she had the previous day.

Maya looked at her phone to find five missed calls and one message. Two calls were Kyle and the

message wanting to know how it went and wishing her a good night. As for the three, they're from

Leonel two from the previous night and one two minutes ago. The minutes that she was eating Chris

with her eyes.

"I can't find my phone. I must have misplaced it last night when I was drunk." She heard her husband

from behind her and he was close since she felt his heat. "Lent me your phone to call since I left it hear

before I went to get myself drunk."

She did. But he had to brush her fingers as she handed him the phone. She felt something strange run

all down to her toes and if it was Kyle, she would call it, sparks.

Maya watched Chris type his number on her phone and then watched him wait. His phone rung from

somewhere around the bed and he walked towards it. She watched him bed on the other side and

come up with the phone. He smiles at her saying he found it then returned hers.

"Thanks."

"You're welcome." She said returning her phone to the purse. "I've to leave now."

"And here I thought you're telling I'm welcome to the bed." Maya shock her head and turned to walk

away.

Just too steps and her back collided with a had chest.

"No good by kiss?"

He didn't wait for her to answer before his lips were on her exposed neck biting and sucking it at one

go. Of course, she fought to be free but the more she did, the more he held tight.

"Let go, Chris."

He did but not before he kissed the hickey he had given her. "It's puppy not Chris, kitten."

"You're mad."

"Not mad, kitten." She took steps towards the door this time faster. "I'm intoxicated."

Maya didn't stop. She closed the door behind her and walked downstairs. She got on her car thing of

how her husband was acting like a dog on heat. It's not like she didn't like it but it felt so wrong. He

loved someone else not her. He even wanted a divorce to get married to the woman of his dreams,

then why was he doing that? Why was making her feel something special. Something that she wanted

to last as long as she leaved? And were the feeling anyway?

Yes, she had a crush on him since highschool when he had only turned twenty. That was a crush which

lasted till now. But according to psychology, a crush that last for three months it no longer a crush but

love.

Wait? Was she in love with Chris? And if yes, for how long now? God, she was acting crazy and

thinking crazy. She couldn't be in love with him. This was crazy. She was crazy.

Maya looked at a review mirror to see her fresh hickey staring back at her. She groaned and moved her

hair on the other side. She just hoped that no one saw them. After she was done, she inserted her keys

to start the engine and before she drove of, her phone bibbed notifying her of a new message. She

pulled it out to read it. It could have bee and emergency or Leonel again.

But it wasn't any of those and her eyes almost popped out of their socks. Chris had saved himself

puppy. Puppy of all the names.

I'll be taking you out for dinner with your best friend to make it up to you for last night. I'll text the

address to you later. Please wear the dress that you'll find on top of your suitcase. Sorry I went through

your bag. If you don't wear it, I won't be held responsible for what he'll do to you. See you later, kitten.
