Samuel's forehead was covered with sweat. Due to running so hard, his breathing was unstable. However, meeting my expectant gaze, he smiled and said softly, "Yes, it's for you."
Taking it happily, I opened it and saw that the cake was my favorite pink.
It was strange that Samuel seemed to know all my preferences.
Sitting with me at the table, Samuel put the birthday crown on me and lit the cake candles.
It was just a simple birthday ceremony, but I couldn't help reddening my eyes.
In my mind, this was the first time someone had spent my birthday with me since I was five.
Seeing me in a daze, Samuel poked my cheek with his cold fingertip. Then, he said simply, "Make a wish."
Perhaps the moonlight tonight was too charming so that Samuel's tender eyes intoxicated me. Then, I subconsciously said what was in my mind, "Samuel, I want you to kiss me."
I was about to make it up after realizing something was wrong.
However, I was pulled into his arms in the next second. My head was forced up.
Then, a light kiss fell on the lips.
My heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and it was apparent in the silent room.
The boy was highly pure and inexperienced. So, just a simple touch was enough to make his ears red and even his breathing a little disordered.
His voice was low and hoarse as if he was trying his best to restrain his surging desire. "Is this enough?"
My response was leaning forward to kiss him again.
I blocked everything Samuel was about to say.
He kissed me fiercely and urgently. It seemed that he was eager to vent. But considering my physical discomfort, he slowed down his movements and became extra gentle.
Before my consciousness faded, I pressed myself against his chest, listening to the overlapping heartbeats. And then, I said word by word, "Samuel, I want us to be together forever."
The young man who was holding me was stunned, and even his body became quite stiff.
After a long while, he responded in the silent room, "Okay."
