158 MIDNIGHT BLISS

ARIEL’S POV

I woke up in the middle of the night, and there was Luke on the bed, still sleeping. Well, he

was supposed to be. I mean, come on, this was the time for everyone to be in drowsy

mode. But look at me; my eyes are all open.

I closed my eyes, trying to get back to sleep, but, to God, it wasn’t working. And it was just

great; I’d have to be around here, sitting down and doing absolutely nothing.

I couldn’t shake the feeling of restlessness, so I decided to get up and take a bath, hoping

it would relax me enough to fall back asleep. I quietly made my way to the bathroom,

trying not to disturb Luke’s peaceful slumber.

As I turned on the shower, the warm water cascaded down my body, instantly calming my

senses. I closed my eyes and let out a sigh, finally feeling some sense of peace. Suddenly,

I heard the bathroom door creak open, and my eyes shot open in surprise.

There stood Luke, looking at me with a mixture of confusion and concern. “Ariel, what are

you doing taking a shower in the middle of the night?”

I blushed, feeling slightly embarrassed. “I couldn’t sleep, so I thought a shower would

help,” I replied sheepishly.

Luke’s expression softened, and he stepped closer to me. “Come here,” he said, pulling

me into his arms. I rested my head against his chest, feeling his warm embrace.

“Is everything alright?” he asked, his voice full of concern.

I nodded, not wanting to worry him anymore. But as I looked up at him, I couldn’t resist

the urge to press my lips against his. The moment our lips met, sparks flew, and my heart

began to race.

Luke responded eagerly, deepening the kiss as his hands roamed down my back. I

moaned softly, completely lost in the moment. His lips were soft and warm, and I just

wanted to smooch him all day. Still unbelievable.

The both of us were still kissing when the water from the shower fell on us, adding to the

already intense sensation. Our bodies pressed against each other, fitting perfectly.

Our kiss intensified as Luke pressed me against the cold, tiled wall of the shower. I

wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling him closer to me as he deepened the

name on the screen. Can’t this man just let me be at peace? I ignored the call, covering

myself with the sheets, but it kept on ringing.

“Aren’t you going to pick up the phone?” Luke asked me, stepping foot in the room. He

was already dressed, ready for work.

“I don’t want to,” I answered, my face still covered with the bed sheet.

“Why not? Is that your ex, or what?” He taunted.

I took the sheet off my face, glaring at him, and he laughed. The phone ran again, and I

wanted to smash it to the floor, but I realized that my mother was the one calling. I

glanced at Luke; he raised an eyebrow at me, his arms crossed.

“I’ll be going to work right now,” he told me, as he was about to leave the room. “Hey,

hey, hey, hold on,” I halted him, getting up from the bed. I walked in his direction; he was

staring at me like I was crazy.

He narrowed his eyes down to my phone, which was in my hand. “Your phone is ringing.”

“Oh, forget about that,” I said right away, ignoring the noise being made on my phone. I

even threw it on the bed without looking. And the crazy part here was that I had no idea if

it landed on the bed or the floor.

“What decision?”

“You are going to work. Don’t you think you should still get some rest?” “Ariel, you don’t

have to worry about me. I’m totally fine. I got this, okay?”

“I’m not sure you got this.”

Luke sighed. “Ughh you argue too much.”

“Because you’re so stubborn,” I retorted.

“Say what now?”

I turned my face away. “It’s nothing.”

He held both of my hands, and he spoke quietly, “I know you’re only being concerned

around here, and I really appreciate that. But I’m fine.”

“You’re sure about that.”

“Yes, I am sure. Now if you excuse me, I have some business stuff to take care of. “He

moved backwards, leaving the room. He didn’t even blow me a kiss. Oh well,
