He bent his head down coming closer to me, his breath fanning on my face then he softly placed a kiss on my cheeks.
My face turned red with just a mere touch of his.
"Are you okay?" He asked looking concern
"Ye-yeah" I cleared my throat
He eyed me for a second then his eyes travelled down to take a look at me.
"Beautiful"
"you don't look too bad yourself " I said looking at his grey fitted suit.
He chuckled at my response and mumbling a thankyou
"Shall we?" He gestured with his hand
I nodded and walking out of the apartment locking the door behind.
Entering the elevator, I again started to feel the weird feeling in my stomach.
We walked towards his car, he opened the door for me. It's not a big deal but every time he does that, my heart melts.
"Where are we going?" I asked him as soon as we were on the road
"It's a surprise" he replied
"I hate surprises" I mumble softly
"Well you won't anymore" he laughed softly
His laugh is like a sweet song in my ear, I didn't know I was smiling at him for so long.
"Why are you smiling?" He asked looking at me then back at the road
"Nothing, just looking at you"
He raised his eyebrows, amused not expecting this answer
"What? I can talk sweet" I rolled my eyes.
"Yeah, sure" he snigger
"You don't believe, do you?"
"Well you can't blame me, I remember the first talk we had" he replied mocking me
I remember the first conversation we had and laughed when I realized what I said to him.
"Sorry" I chuckled
He shake his head.
We entered a large building about 50 floors large. We climbed out of the car after parking it.
I crane my neck up to look at the building, the glass window making it look so elegant and posh.
We took the elevator Charles press the 47th floor.
I didn't speak or asked anything, I was feeling a bit awkward. I have never been to this side of New York, it's were all rich people lives.

The elevator dings, we stepped out. Stopping at the door he opened by pressing some button on the keypad, unlocking the door.
He turned the lights on stepping aside to let me walk through.
It was his penthouse. It was so big and fancy, lavishly modern. Large windows covered with white curtains from where the whole city can be seen, White Walls, hanging there expensive painting, huge Crystal chandelier hanging on the ceiling, a large sofa over white furry carpet, square shaped white marbled table placed in middle with flat screen hanging on wall completing the entire look of this place.
A piano place near the window look so extravagant and a staircase leading to bedrooms.
"Wow" I said in awed.
"Like it?"
"It's very beautiful" I said walking towards the glass window looking at the view.
"The surprise awaits upstairs" he took a step near me sliding his arms around my waist. Goosebumps forming over my body
I rest my head on this chest, close my eyes enjoying the way his body warm up my soul.
"Come, let me show you your surprise" he held my hand walking towards the stairs
He opened the door of one of his room, switching on the light.
I gasp when I looked around. It was a theater room, the ceiling lighten up as sky with thousands of stars, a huge mattress & blanket placed in the center of the room with fragrance candles lit on the floor.
I looked at Charles in awe, my eyes watering.
"I remember you mentioning about Shawn Mendes documentary is coming out today, so I thought maybe we could watch together" he said looking shy scratching his head.
I looked at him in shock, is this guy real?
I walked towards him, wrapping my arms around him tightly.
He was caught off guard with my sudden reaction but he too wrapped his arms around me pulling me close to him
"Thankyou. No one has ever done this for me" I said almost crying
"Why are you crying? Did I do something wrong? You don't like it? We can go somewhere else. I'm sorry i-"

"It's tears of happiness" I laughed at him. He was nervous and that made him look more adorable
"Oh" he sigh in relief
Its very strange yet cute to see Mr. Maxwell worrying about such little things
He held my hand and pull me down to sit. Sliding inside the blanket I wait for him to play the movie.
The gentle piano music starts to play, Charles came sliding down next to me, wrapping his arms around me.
"You first get on the stage and ego comes rushing in, saying don't mess up" Shawn says
My heart starts to pound against my chest, there he is.
I clutched Charles hand tightly, testing my head on his shoulder.
I whipped a little when Shawn said, " I'm constantly checking my voice out of fear of the fact that, one day I'm going to sing and it's going to just not come out."
Every time I was getting emotional, Charles rub his hands on my arms. Kissing my forehead.
When the documentary was over, we both didn't move, just stayed there.
"I Want to use washroom" I said him leaving the warmth of his body
"Just go straight and take the first left" he said pulling him up and then lending me his hand to pull me up.
"Okay" I walked out of the theater room, going in the direction as told.
I washed my face wiping it from the towel then pulling my hair in a messy bun.
As I walked out if the washroom, I heard some noise from downstairs. Climbing down the stairs I saw Mr Maxwell talking on a phone
Not wanting to disturb him, I went to kitchen to drink water. Just like the rest of the penthouse the kitchen was very modern.
As I was sipping my water, I didn't know when Mr Maxwell came and stood behind me.
My heart almost popped out when he wrapped his arms around my waist turning me towards him.
He took the glass of water from me placing it aside on the kitchen slab. I placed my hands on his warm chest, feeling the uneven beating of his heart.
"You're so beautiful" he said gently caress my cheeks, shiver running down my spine. Having him this close to me makes my mind go blank
He lean his face forward pulling my face up gently with his fingers on my chin.
And then his lips brushed against mine, this time it was not soft and innocently like the first time but more hot in a passionate way. His one hand rest behind my ear and the other on my waist. My arms reached up tangling behind his neck. He slipped his tongue inside my mouth fighting for dominance, my knees curled up but he held me tightly not letting me fall.
I pulled away to take a breath, I rested my head on the crook of his neck, inhaling his strong muscular cologne.
but a constant thought that's been playing inside my mind since yesterday blurted out before I could stop, "what are we charles?"
he step back looking at me with an emotion in could not fathom. he looked away, thinking. My heart scattering every second of the silence until he softly whisper "I wanted to say this for so long but never really gather the courage to say" I waited for him to continue
"I really like you Olivia" he snap his eyes back at me, "I know its all too fast and soon. But still I wanted to ask if you would like to be my girlfriend, if this thing still happens at our age?" He joked but his eyes full of Hope and desire
i could feel my normal heart beat again.
"Yes. I would like that very much" I chuckled not thinking twice about it and jumped at his arms. Omg, he asked me to be his girlfriend....
He held me tightly against his chest, kissing my hair.
