Manchester City is one of the most elegant cities, my eyes lit up as we drive past the brilliant John Rylands Library Victorian Neo-Gothic building enhancing the beauty of Deansgate every place here is worth sightseeing, A smile reached my face watching the busy street with people, I leaned my head on the window,

I'm happy that I'm out in the open sky this time without hiding or lying Azriel is taking me by his choice I thought he would change his mind in the morning but he didn't, taking me with him must be a reason for my security still this thing that he wants me to accompany him is enough to flutter my heart with thousand butterflies,

My heart is still winking because I dried his hair and then did his hair too, I swear it wasn't easy to stand that close to him, and hiding the closeness wasn't affecting me, I can still feel the softness of his hair locks between my fingers and how I didn't want to withdraw I bit my inner lip and glanced to the side to the man whom I'm thinking about,

He was engrossed in his phone, thick brows drawn together beautiful lips in thin lines seemed very dived in whatever he was watching on the phone screen, I let my eyes wander over his well-kept hair wondering how close I could tug him while molding his lips with mine... My eyes widened I hurriedly turned my eyes to the windows my heart began pounding,

What was that? what was I thinking!?
I shut my eyes I can't and I shouldn't think in such a way it's so inappropriate! "Adira..."

"Oh! Can my name sound this good"

I took deep breaths for calming my wild running mind against my will, "What's the wrong firefly?" His husky voice sent sweet chills down my spine I didn't turn to him or else he would see my red face, "I'm asking you something firefly?"

"Yeah, I'm fine, umm, when will we reach the airport?" I inquired because this drive having him sitting beside me looking sinfully handsome proved to be agonizing for me and icing on the cake was my thoughts running inappropriate ways, "Just an hour or so." He scrutinized my face, "Is your head hurting? We can go back if you aren't feeling like traveling." Concern dripped from his tone,

I had to turn to him the worried crease upon his forehead, in these past days the way he has cared for me I could feel his concern, but now even his features are giving it away, "Darek turned back to the penthouse." He sighed this brought me out of the trance, "No! Please keep going," I stopped the driver from turning back to the penthouse,

"I'm fine." I faced him emphasizing my words to make him believe, he scanned my face for a few good seconds with a void expression while I tried to go over what is he thinking but as usual, it was so hard to read his mind through his eyes or face he blinked and lowered his head on his phone in hand nodding then no words exchanged like it was before, we sat in silence,

I rested my side of my head on the window staring out and watching the busy city passing by, I brought my knees to my chest to sit comfortably I hope we reach the airport in an hour because sitting here in utter silence is another agonizing thing.
