The Goddess Made A Mistake Again-Chapter 187 - - A Strange Confession
I stood before the living-room door.
She didn't tell me when or where to meet her. But it didn't matter, time was irrelevant and the place I can think only think of is the living room.
This is where she taught me her lessons of being a Good Noble.
Frankly there isn't any from my point view, all of them are either too prideful to go even a bit beyond their point and the other ones are too greedy to let their coins slip up from their clutches.
I'm diverting the topic, aren't I.
I take a deep breath before releasing as I feel my heartbeat fasten quite a bit.
I don't know where she will go with this, I only hope that this doesn't stop whatever has been growing within us.
I lightly turn the knob and push open the door. Getting inside, I see the solemn silence reverberate around the room as the glass doors let in the full moon's shine.
Sitting at the far right, was a small leisure table and on one seat was Rebecca. Her eyes looking solemnly at the full moon even as she noticed me entering the place.
'Hmm… so she can actually wear something other than black.'
I think as I see her wearing a white nightgown that didn't have any visible features.
Comparing this to the lighting around the room and her expression, she looked…
"Beautiful"
Abigail knew for quite a while, that he was already inside. She still was a bit hesitant at how to do this. So she let him have the first moment, to hear what he was going to say.
"Beautiful"
As that word went through her ears, she felt it directly impact her undying heart and beat rapidly.
Her face which was impeccably white and perfect, suddenly had a pink hue to it as she smiled and finally got the resolution to do this.
"The moon's quite beautiful today."
"You're beautiful."
"Gosh" She looked down as I saw the blush on her, "Don't you know anything other than that word?"
"I'm only saying what I see."
She smiled sneakily and looked back at the sky with a deep impression, "You know, I find this quite strange."
I silently listen.
"You flirt with me every day and that too quite badly."
I'm gonna erase that last part from my memory.
"You call me beautiful everyday… and yet, today it feels different. It feels as if those words are actually being said to me."
"I'm not an expert on love but," I say, "I think it's because we finally see each other for who we really are."
"And it doesn't frighten you?" Her head turned and my heart immediately took a sharp dive.
Her face had no makeup or eye stuff that would distinguish them as she didn't need it. But as she showed her perfectly oval face, I saw the pain she had been hiding for so long.
Her eyes turned crescent dark and her mouth raised up in a question as if asking, why am I like this? She was asking why her whole existence had to be this painful.
My body moved instinctively and grabbed hold of her.
"It doesn't. You're the epitome of beauty and perfection that my eyes have ever laid upon." The Goddess isn't in this realm so I'm allowed to say this.
"Don't let other people's words or action get to you because of your characteristic."
Her body at first felt shock at being touched by me, then she relented and also hugged my stomach.
"But I eat humans... I might even eat you one day."
"Seriously… you're going to take the 'I might eat you one day' route?" I felt her body shake as if laughing.
"As I said, don't let our words get to you. We humans are not perfect, far from it. You can say we are the worst eaters in the world."
"We eat anything that our mouths can take a bite. We not only eat animals but we also eat vegetables and trees too."
"And about you eating us? I don't let it get to me much… Believe it or not there are some humans that actually eat other humans because they think it tastes delicious."
"Why am I even telling you that, you already know it." Her body shook once again.
"So what I'm trying to say is, don't see yourself as a monster. We all are monsters in our own way. You just have two fangs and can live for eternity."
With that I go quiet, thinking if I did a good job or actually blew this.
"Thank you for telling me that. I understand it was hard for you to say all this, you're not really the type to calm others down."
Yep, I blew it.
"But I get what you're trying to say." She smiled and looked, her eyes which wet and tears had been falling from her, "The words you spoke may be far from perfect, but I don't like perfection… I like you."
"Wow… that's a strange way to confess someone." I say and wipe her tears as she smiled.
"I meant it when I said I like you."
"I know… and I like you too."
Both of us smiled and then she suddenly stood up and took the step as she kissed me. Her lips weren't cold… not one bit, instead it felt like she had the warmth my body desperately needed.
It was a soft sensual kiss.
Not like Alice but somewhat similar.
As we parted, she had a smile on her that I never saw before, "You're beautiful."
"Thank you…" Then she shoved me away, "Now stop copping a feel and sit there."
I laugh a bit before sitting right opposite to her as I finally notice something.
"Hey, where's Olivia?"
"I told her to give us some space."
"And she actually agreed?!" I say as if it was unacceptable, which in my experience it really was, "Never thought she might actually give us… space."
She smiled, "Don't joke like that about her. I know she's a bit harsh around me. But it's only because she knows what I've been through."
Her smile wavered and went away, "She saw me fall in love… no, like someone and then saw that like running away or calling the guards on me."
"Hehe... Phsh!"
Abigail looked up to see Henry laughing as she felt awed by him, "Are you seriously laughing? I'm telling you my heartbreaking story here!"
"I'm sorry… it's just way too funny when the persons you love-"
"LIKED!"
"Liked… run away and call guards on you."
"Hey, that's two different things. They either ran away or…" She finally stopped and her somewhat angry face became shy as she angrily smiled at me, "Why am I even trying to explain all this to you… it doesn't matter, does it? My past."
I stop laughing and shake my head, "No, not to me. The you sitting before me is the only one I know and the only one I need to know."
She smiled and her blush mixed in with it, "You know… sometimes you really can flirt."
"Okay, now that was personal."
"I'm not trying to hurt you here; in my experience I've seen much better people at flirting than you."
"Oh yeah… th- then… I had women who can kiss better than you."
"You did not!
"I did too!
"I'm a good kisser! No, I'm the best kisser there is."
"Then show me!"
"Okay, I'll show you!"
We both get up and then straightforward kiss each other.
