My Little Sunshine

Chapter 56: Sunset



After driving for almost an hour, Adam stopped the car by a mountain. 

"Close your eyes." He said turning towards Stella.

"Why?" She asked, narrowing her eyes.

"Just do it sweetheart." He gave her pleading look. "Pretty please?" 

"Alright." She said shaking her head sideways as she closed her eyes. 

Stella felt something being placed over her eyes. "What are you doing?" She asked him exasperatedly.

"Just making sure that you won't open your eyes."  Adam said as he tied a black blindfold over her eyes, making sure that it wasn't too tightly bound.

"Now sit back and enjoy the ride." He said placing soft a peck on her cheek.

After a few more minutes, Stella felt the car coming to a stop.

Adam got out of the car and made his way to the passenger seat's door. Opening it, he held Stella's hands and guided her out.

"Why are you being so mysterious?" Adam heard her asking as she held onto his hands.

"You will know in a while sweetheart." He murmured next to her ear.

After taking a few steps forward with Stella next to him, Adam stopped and wrapped his arms around her waist. 

"Open your eyes love." He whispered in her ear after removing the blindfold.

Stella slowly opened her eyes and blinked them a couple of times as they adjusted to the surrounding light. She was completely mesmerized by the view before her. 

A number of hills that were covered completely by tall trees, stood before her. The chirping of birds as they headed towards their homes, filled the air. The wind blowing by, playing with the locks of her hair as the sun was setting in the horizon.

"It's… it's so beautiful Adam." Stella finally spoke as she looked at the scenic view before her.

"It sure is." He replied looking at her, his eyes set on her face, the golden rays of the setting sun illuminating it and making her hazel eyes glow.

"Stella?" He called her name softly.

"Hmm?" She hummed in reply, turning her face towards him. As soon as she did, she felt his lips crashing over hers. She turned her body to face his, wrapping her slender arms around his neck. Adam tightened his hold on her waist, bringing her body impossibly close to his own. 

He kissed her as if his life depended on it, sucking on to her luscious lips that were as soft as a marshmallow. He smirked into the kiss at her feeble attempts to reciprocate his actions. He grazed his teeth over her lower lip, earning a moan  in return.

Stella was getting dizzier with every passing second, her mind was numb now. She had long forgotten her surroundings, and the only thing she could focus on was now Adam. The feeling of his lips over hers, his tongue grazing over hers, his hands that were holding her close to him, his masculine scent wafting up her nose. 

Just as she thought she was going to faint, Adam let go of her lips resting his forehead on hers. 

"You… You drive me crazy baby." Adam spoke as he took deep breaths to calm himself down.

Stella looked up only to see a pair of gray eyes that were filled with complex emotions, looking back at her.

"Looks like you have the same effect on me." She chuckled, her forehead still leaning against his.

"Stay here." Adam let go of her after calming himself down. He went to car's trunk and took out a bunch of things from it. After closing the trunk, he made his way to the car's front. 

Stella saw him placing a beige color duvet and some cushions on the car's hood.

"Come over here." He said as he jumped to sit on the bonnet.

He helped her get up on the bonnet and placed a cushion against her back so that she could comfortably lean against the windshield. Picking up another duvet from the side, he covered their legs with it as he leaned against the windshield placing an arm around her shoulders.

"This is my favorite spot in the city. Whenever I am sad or have to take a decision about my life, I come over here to think. I wanted to share it with you, make some memories that I can always recall whenever I come here. Blake and I use the track for racing every now and then." He told her.

Stella listened to him as she looked at the setting sun. 

"The last time I came here, I made the most important decision of my life. I decided to give my feelings for you a chance, I chose to tell you about them. And here I am, at the same place with you in my arms." Adam continued as he looked at her intently, a faint smile on his face.

Stella turn her face towards him. His words made a warmth spread through her. She snuggled close to him, leaning her head against his shoulder. She didn't know what to say to him in return, so she chose to show it by her actions. 

As If understanding her emotions, Adam placed a lingering kiss on the top of her head.
