Behind Closed Doors

Campfire

GUNTHER'S POV

I asked kaya multiple time who was that dude that she was talking to and why she dragged me away from him.

"it's a long story," is all that she can say.

I was quite frustrated I really don't want it that someone is hiding something from me. So many questions left unanswered.

After some time I gave up on questioning Kaya and now we are all sitting in circle with the campfire blazing in front of us, the fire is so strong I think it's burning my eyebrows.

I looked at Kaya and she just smiled, I smiled back but I think she knee it wasn't that genuine. I prepared a lot for our first trip together, I was even considering it as our honeymoon and now the mood is spoiled.

I wander in the lake for a bit, kaya offered to come with me but I didn't want company for now, I need some time to be alone and think.

The moon sure is bright tonight, the lake was shinning with the moon's reflection I can hear birds chirping and the wolves howling in the distance.

This is peaceful but my mind wanders off on the questions that I have with kaya, the words thst Gideon guy left before he vanish was circulating my mind. What does mean. While I'm lost on the thought I heard someone approaching, it was chuck carrying a bucket of beer.

"Want a drink?" he asked,

"sure" I lazily replied.

"For a couple in a honeymoon stage you sure have a lot of distance from Kaya, did something happen?" chuck asked.

"I don't know man, I just have a lot of questions and her existence is still a mystery for me." I replied,

"I just hope she can answer at least one of it, coz right now I think I'm loosing my mind". I continued while drinking the rest of my beer.

"Well, if you're going to bombard her with your questions in your own honeymoon I would understand why she's not answering" Chuck said handing me another bottle.

"Why don't you just enjoy your moment with her right now and just go about your questions once you got back" he smiled looking at the lake.

"you both have a lifetime to answer any questions that you two have" he continues.

"For a guy who can't keep a girl for 24 hours you sure have a lot of wisdom in terms of marriage" I laughed at the irony.

"Well if your best guy needs to let off some steam you can either give a hot woman or a heartwarming advice, good for you I'm expert in both".

Yes, chuck really is my best friend we know each other every since we moved to lockwood.

After I finished three bottles I began to feel light-headed and chuck assisted me to our tent, good thing I'm drunk coz I don't know what to day to kaya.

When I entered she eas sleeping on her back, I think this is the first time that I see her sleep with clothes on.

I grabbed another blanket and set it up on the farthest side of the tent, I know she's disappointed with me leaving her out of the blue and it would be better if I keep my distance first.

I can still feel the alcohol on my system but I heard Kaya shuffled and the next thing I know is that shes hugging me from my back,

"please don't be mad, I have a very complicated past and I don't want you to be involved with it for as much as I can" she speaks softly, and I think my heart aches I turned around and face her, she was so damn beautiful.

I kissed her softly, "sorry I overreacted I just had a lot of questions and I wanted to know you more.

I won't ask another question to you, I'll just wait for you to reach out if you wanted to talk about it" I gave her small kisses on the lips.

"Thanks" she replied,

"that's how marriage works according to my playboy friend" she giggled at my answer.

I deepened our kiss and I can feel her responding, day by day I feel more and more attach to her.

I reached down and grabbed her waist to push her closer to me, maybe the alcohol is making me vulgar since I rubbed my manliness on her thigh. She moaned and looked at me with her deep set of eyes,

"I love you" I said kissing her more aggressively this time, she wrapped her hand on my neck and I kissed her neck down to her collar...
