Ch-26 Eleanor felt happy as she danced with him. She twirled, jumped, and fell in his hands as she danced with him. A genuine smile formed on her face. She didn't notice that Cedric was looking at her with an adoring smile. Cedric saw her carefree expression on her face. He realized she likes dancing. His gaze followed her face. He looked at her as if he was trying to carve her features of that second. Her wide innocent eyes, wide forehead, doe-shaped eyes, her up-turned nose, plump red lips, and sharp chin. She looked ethereal. His gaze stopped at her cherry and feminine lips. He wondered what kind of taste they would have at that second. At that moment, he lost his cool and bowed his head and captured her lips, shocking her along with the whole crowd. Cedric slowly sucked her lower lip making her body stop at his moments. Eleanor's eyes widened at his actions. She looked at him with his smiley eyes which reflected her. He winked at her and closed his eyes as he concentrated on the kiss full-fledged. His hands traveled to the back of her dress. When Cedric realized she tied her hair into a bun, he moved his hands and loosened her hair making it flow like free waterfalls. Her hair covered her back which exposed her skin. Cedric doesn't want anyone to see her body. Her body should be seen by him alone. So, he was trying to cover her body from the start, but now he got the chance. Eleanor was too embarrassed to keep her eyes open at that second. She closed her eyes and tried to escape from his grip. This idiot! How dare he! But she can't pull him away and she can't escape. Because he gripped her waist tightly. Eleanor felt like suffocating at that second. Eleanor realized she was falling into a deeper pit. She wondered where this kiss would lead too. She missed her brother this time for real. [Brother… When will you wake up? Everyone is taking advantage of me!] she cried in her mind. But now she couldn't do it. [when you kissed him without his will at Jessica and Jacob's wedding, he didn't say anything. Now, why are you crying? Now you don't owe anything. Don't act like you are innocent.] Eleanor's mind mocked her. Indeed it's true. At that time, she took advantage of him, now she was being taken advantage of. It's settled, but why does she feel hurt now? They never had any real relationship with each other. Or let's say she didn't let them have it. Now she was being kissed in the middle of many people. What would people think? Yeah… It was said that she was his girlfriend. But was she? When she was in the middle of her thoughts… Cedric left her lips making her open her eyes. There was hurt, uncertainty and anger. Maybe the anger was on herself. She was the one who brought this upon herself. And maybe… she deserved it.
Cedric saw Eleanor's eyes filled with hurt and anger. He realized what he was doing and looked around. Even the music was stopped, the hall was in complete silence. Everyone was watching them.
Eleanor felt weak and gullible. She lowered her head. She wanted to leave this place and cry her heart out. First, her brother got into an accident, then her company, her boyfriend's cheating, best friend betrayal, and this thing. Eleanor felt restless. She felt she needed a break from everything but she couldn't take a break. The feeling of suffocation was getting heavier. She turned around to leave but was stopped by him. She turned around only to see him b….. Oh My God! What the hell is he doing!? ---------- Author's Notes: What do you guys think he did? Let me know your thoughts in the comments.
