Bailey's pov

When I thought about Kaleb in the past. I didn't think about the boy

sitting beside me now.

With his gentle smile, his warm gaze and God the way he stared at me

as if I was the only light in his world, this person was completely

different than the past version I always thought he would be.

He was my Kaleb.

And I wished I had seen this side of him sooner.

"You keep staring at me, miss unimpressed.” He teased, stealing a

glance at me from the corner of his eye and popping a grape in his

mouth. One of his leg is propped up and he's leaning one of his arm on

his knee.

The setting sun casted a golden hue over him, making me hold my

breath at how stunning he looked right now. And when his eyes flick to

me and I saw the radiant blue turned now a light color sea green and I

melted.

He wore a teasing grin, biting into the grape in a sexy way. Maybe he

didn't mean for it to be sexy but it came out that way.

I peered at him under my lashes, slowly biting into my bottom lip as

butterflies fly in my stomach. " Can't I stare at my boyfriend?" my words

came out teasingly.

Kaleb's grin widened, making my heart skip as he leaned in closer,

capturing my gaze with his sea-green eyes. "Oh by all means, stare

away Bailey. I could get used to being stared at by you."

He leaned on his forearm, staring at me with a teasing grin as he

swallowed the grape.

I rolled my eyes, leaning back on my elbows, crossing my legs and

staring at the ocean that glistened. " Well Mr. Impressive, you've set the

bar high today. It's not every day someone can find a guy to woo her

with a date on the beach.”

I return my gaze to his and caught sight of the pink flush on his neck,

quickly crawling up to settle on his cheeks. I cracked a smile.

Despite being clearly flushed, Kaleb being Kaleb feigned a look of

surprise and pointed at himself. "Me? Set the bar high? I am just a

humble guy trying to impress his very unimpressed girlfriend."

Girlfriend.

It sounded so good coming out of his mouth.

I scoffed, rolling my eyes playfully. "Humble and Kaleb doesn't quite go

together."

His eyes sparkled with a playful glint and his grin was so wide and

infectious, I couldn't help but grin right back. " Take that back. I am a

very humble guy.”

I wrinkled my nose, feigning a look of scoff. * You're far from humble Mr.

Impressive.”

Kaleb groaned and was so quick that I didn't realize he had moved and

was now on top of me until my back hit the cloth under me and I am

staring up into his eyes.

The air wooshes out of my lungs instantly.

His eyes flicker down to my lips, the air around us buzzing as the crash

of waves surround us. He's pressing to me but made sure to not squish

me with his weight. My heart skipped at the heat of his look.

" Take that back Bailey." he whispered, eyes returning to mine to shoot

me a longing stare. I shivered, his hot breath fanning against my lips

and I part them to let out a faint gasp.

I shook my head, swallowing and licked across my bottom lip. * Make

me."

He smiled, leaning even closer until our lips brush. In this second a

rage of tingles run freely in my body and set me on fire. * Hmmm I think

I can do that.” He tilted his head, and his knee nudge my thighs apart.

I knew what he wanted and I gave it to him.

I spread my legs so he could settle between them. He pressed his

lower half and I gasped. A grin spread on his lips when he heard the

sound that flutter out of my mouth. His voice dropped low, growing

hoarse.

"I think there are many ways I can have you take those words back."

he deliberately brush his lower lip against my upper lip and then nibbled

my lower lip.

I moaned. " Oh?"

There's a fire between my thighs. A burning. A need.

I'm panting as I feel him grow between my legs, becoming so hard that

it would be impossible to not know he desired me.

He nod, letting out a groan himself when he nudge his hips forward to

press his hard-on on me. * Many," he whispered, brushing a soft kiss

on the corner of my mouth. * Many, many ways Miss. unimpressed.”

I pant hard as he place a kiss on my throat and pulled away just as I

was about to beg him to just kiss me.

With a playful gleam in his eyes, Kaleb took both my hands using only

one of his and locked them above my head. And with a smirk, he did

what I least expected. He tickled me.

A weird sound like a squeal mixed with a screech tore from my throat

as his fingers touched the side of my stomach. He grinned down at me,

his eyes lighting up with that boyish happiness that made me giggle.

" Stop!" I squealed, thrashing and laughing. By now my eyes were

blurry from the tears of laughter.

Kaleb chuckled. " Not until you take those words back." he tickled me

furiously, not letting up until I had no choice but to surrender.

" Okay, okay!" I gasped, my belly hurting from laughing so much. " I

take those words back.”

Kaleb tilted his head, his eyes shinning as he hummed. " I don't know. It

doesn't sound convincing enough.”

He leaned closer, grinning from ear to ear. " Say, my boyfriend Kaleb is

one of the humblest guys on the planet.”

I shook my head only to squeal louder when he went back to tickle me.

" Okay okay!" I gasped. " My boyfriend Kaleb is the humblest guy on

the planet.”

He looked down at me, his eyes lighting up. "Hmm much better." he

whispered and stopped his actions.

My chest is moving up and down as I try to catch my breath. He still

has my hands locked above my head and is staring down at me fondly.

" Flower?"

I hummed, unable to form words at the moment.

He leaned in closer, his eyes flickering from my lips to my eyes. " You're

doing that staring thing again.”

I feigned innocence and he smiled. "And you know it turns me on."

" It does?" I teased.

He chuckle, leaning in closer until his lips brush against mine. " You

won't mind if I try to impress you with a kiss now?"

My heart hammered in my chest as I bit my lip and shook my head. *

As long as you don't disappoint.” I uttered playfully, causing Kaleb to

chuckle.

" Teasing me like that will only end up with you moaning under me." He

warned, rotating his hips to make me feel his hardness. " Be careful.”

Staring at him under my lashes, I breathed out. "Then what's taking you

so long? Impress me playboy."
