Kiss Me Not

It was already 9:00 am when Kevin woke up. He remained lying on the bed as he silently watched Mitch's sleeping figure. A faint smile appeared on his face as he recalled what transpired last night.

They almost did it. Fortunately, he was able to control himself at the last minute. But after pleasuring his girlfriend, Mitch also tried her best to satisfy him.

Kevin would have been tempted to claim her last night and make love with her if he didn't think of keeping her chastity before their marriage.

Kevin couldn't contain his joy as he watched his woman lying beside him. Mitch was still sound asleep. She got exhausted last night from their passionate moment.

Kevin had already made up his mind. Today, he would make her officially his woman. His parents already approved of their relationship and they liked Mitch a lot.

He reached out, caressing Mitch's face as he traced her features using his fingers. Kevin got up from the bed when he got satisfied while holding his phone.

He called someone, asking him to prepare some documents. There was a subtle smile on his face when the call ended. He tossed another look at Mitch's sleeping figure before he walked inside his bathroom to take a quick shower.

He didn't want to disturb Mitch's peaceful sleep so he didn't wake her up. He just let her sleep, planning to cook breakfast for Mitch.

After taking a shower, Kevin left the room silently. He headed straight to the kitchen. He just cooked an omelet and fried rice. He made sure to make coffee for her.

When he was done preparing her breakfast, Kevin went out for a moment, visiting his mother's garden. He picked a flower. It's a red rose.

The smile on his face never left as he kept thinking about his plan today. He wondered how Mitch would react. Honestly, he was a little bit nervous, afraid that Mitch would reject him.

But he mustered up his courage. He had to do this now as he could no longer wait to make her his woman, his wife.

Heart pounding crazily, Kevin proceeded to his room, holding the tray of food and the red rose. Upon entering the room, Mitch had just woken up. She was rubbing her eyes when she noticed Kevin's presence.

"Good morning, Beautiful," Kevin greeted her sweetly.

Realizing she hadn't washed up yet, Mitch immediately covered her face using both hands. She was too shy to show her fresh-from-waking-up appearance to Kevin.

On the other hand, Kevin let out a husky laugh, seeing her adorable reaction. He had already seen her face while she was asleep a while ago. No need to hide her face anymore.

"G-Good morning," Mitch meekly said, trying to peek at him through the gap of her fingers.

Kevin walked over, placing the tray on top of the bedside table. Then he bent down, kissing Mitch on her forehead.

"Stop hiding your face from me. You are still beautiful no matter what. Here, have some breakfast first. I cooked this for you. I hope you like it."

Mitch put her hands down, looking at the food on her left side. She felt touched knowing Kevin prepared and cooked her breakfast and delivered it to her bed.

She smiled, seeing the heart-shaped fried rice and omelet. "You are so creative and thoughtful. I'm so lucky to have a boyfriend like you. Thank you for this."

Kevin nodded at her with a gentle smile on his face. He also handed over the rose to her.

"A rose for a beautiful lady."

Mitch gasped in surprise. Kevin truly touched her heart as early as this morning. She just hugged him to express her gratitude for his thoughtfulness and sweetness.

She stood up and washed up for a moment before she went back to eat her breakfast. Kevin watched and accompanied her until she finished her food.

When she was done, Kevin waited for a few minutes before telling her an important thing.

Mitch felt conscious under his penetrating gaze. "Kevin… Why are you looking at me like that? Do you have anything to tell me?"

Kevin nodded his head, grabbing Mitch's hands. They were facing each other as they sat on the edge of his bed.

"Mitch… I have thought about this since last night." Kevin paused for a moment, still thinking about how he would deliver his next words.

"What is it?" Mitch asked him, intrigued. This was the first time she saw a very composed Kevin getting nervous in front of her.

"Mitch, marry me! Let's get married. Please say yes." Kevin spoke up spontaneously without missing a beat.

Mitch was stupefied for a moment, thinking she just heard him wrong.

'What did he say? Am I still dreaming? Is this a dream?' Mitch thought to herself, blinking her eyes in confusion.

"I'm sorry I didn't prepare a ring. But here I am, presenting myself to you. Mitch, I love you so much that I am willing to spend the rest of my life with you. Please be my wife. Marry me… today!"

Mitch: "..."

Mitch was too overwhelmed for her to utter some words. She didn't expect this proposal from Kevin.

"Let's get married by signing a marriage certificate and register it to the Civil Registrar. I can't wait to make you mine officially. Mom and Dad also like you as their daughter-in-law. Let's do the wedding ceremony next month!"

Mitch had to pinch her leg just to make sure she was not dreaming. When she felt the pain, she confirmed it. Kevin was proposing right now! He was asking her to be his wife!

She was shocked by this sudden proposal but her heart was already rejoicing. Of course, she wanted to be Kevin's wife! She didn't care about the grand wedding. Being his wife was already enough for her.

After her long silence, Mitch finally gave him a response. "Yes! I agree. Let's get married. I want to be your wife!"

Kevin felt so happy upon hearing that. He immediately grabbed her head, kissing her passionately.

On that day, Kevin and Mitch registered their marriage. His parents were there as witnesses when they signed and registered their marriage in the Civil Registrar. Mitch would go back to Country D as Mrs. Fennel…. Mrs. Mitch Fennel!
