His Beautiful Addiction

Chapter 295 - Wedding Dress

''So, do you want to chase me? ''

 Diana's cheeks burned as her eyes turned to Michael who was staring back at her with a grin on his lips; she opened her mouth to defend herself but before she could say a word, Michael spoke again;

''you just said that women would chase me if I spoke like this to them, that would only mean you want to chase me? Am I wrong? ''

Although she considered him attractive much, she wasn't going to accept to his face that she was smitten by him, she still had her pride!

Glaring at him, she said, ''I don't. ''

Pulling her eyes away from him, she dug into her cake;

''Ouch, that hurts.'' Michael held his heart as though her words had hurt her, there was silence between them for a while, then he said;

''I don't mind if you want to... '' Diana paused and turned to him to look at him;

''The last time I checked, women didn't do the chasing! '' she glared and Michael laughed;

''Okay, if that's the case, am I allowed to chase you? ''

Diana didn't know if he was joking or not, but either way, his words stirred her heart. She swallowed and looked away ignoring his question. Her eyes fluttered as she filled her mouth with her cake, unfortunately, that was the last bite and she was going to be stuck staring at him unless she found something that would take her out of there.

Michael watched her quietly when he saw she couldn't answer because she was uncomfortable with the question, he asked another;

''Tell me about your childhood; ''

Diana was lost in her thoughts; maybe she was poor at reading interests, or maybe he was just a little complicated for her. When he stared at her, sometimes she felt as though he was smitten by her, and other times, it felt as though he was talking to her as though she was his younger sister, whom he wanted to protect. She was confused.

But since he was here, talking to her and wanting to know more about her, he was interested in her a little, right?

Earlier, he had asked her if there were kiss scenes and when she confirmed that there were, he agreed to play the part immediately. And just now, he asked her if he could chase her, she didn't know whether he meant it or not, but there was a hint of sincerity in his eyes.

Diana smiled to herself, they were progressing. Even if he wasn't madly in love right now, he at least cared a huge lot about her.

''Hey, what are you thinking about? ''

Diana blinked back to reality and smiled; ''nothing, so what did you say? ''

'' I asked about your childhood. ''

''Oh, it was… eventful, but sometimes it would feel lonely, I didn't have any siblings and Nicklaus refused to play with me, he was always on his own. ''

''Nicklaus? ''

''Yeah, he lived with us after his parents died. He was always quiet and alone, the most he spoke was to my mom, or maybe when he was required to talk to me. So apart from my school friends, who visited sometimes, it was a little lonely. But things became better in high school, I was among the popular girls because I was very pretty in high school, and then we were about the three prettiest girls in class, so we got a handful of attention. So tell me about you? ''

Michael smiled; ''Well, I was a bad boy in school since I was handsome and tall, girls love handsome and tall boys, so I was popular with the girls.

I'm not proud of it, but I was dating two girls at the same time, well it wasn't totally my fault because even when I refused them, they didn't want to let me be, you know how teens behave. I think they knew I was double dating, but they weren't sure since they weren't friends and not in the same class. ''

''You lived such a bad life; '' Diana shook her head and Michael shrugged;

''It wasn't entirely my fault, I couldn't change my face. ''

''tsh, so proud,'' her eyes glanced at the window and she noticed it was already dark; ''are you sleeping over?''

Michael looked outside; ''oh, it's dark already. ''

Diana's heart raced a little, she didn't want him to leave but at the same time, she couldn't ask him to stay. She prayed that he would want to stay.

''Alright, I'll be going now. It's always nice spending time with you '' Michael said and stood up from the couch.

''Yeah, you too; ''

Diana's hopes crashed when she heard him, but she couldn't do anything.

''You are welcome anytime. '' she smiled and he nodded.

''Call me when you get home. ''

''Yeah, I will. ''

...

''You look so gorgeous; ''

Grandma smiled as Tiana stood in front of the floor to ceiling mirror, wearing her wedding gown. Grandma had hired the best designers for the gown and the outcome was as expected.

Tiana looked like she just walked out of an artwork, so beautiful.

''I can't wait to see the look on that boy's face when he sees you. '' she smiled at Grandma's remark as she stared at herself in the mirror.

She was getting married in a week's time, it still felt unreal. Everything was happening so fast.

''Fuji, come loosen here up a little, I don't want this dress suffocating the baby; ''

Tiana turned to grandma with a small laughter; ''it's okay grandma, I'm not pregnant yet, and it's very comfortable like this. ''

''Are you sure you are comfortable? ''

Tiana nodded with a smile and then Grandma let her be. After taking pictures and making short videos of her wearing the dress, Tiana went in to take if off.

She didn't want to think about it but Grandma's words had reminded her that she wasn't pregnant yet. It's been a month and three weeks already. The thought of it made her swallow bitterly. What if she was not able to get pregnant?

Tiana felt goosebumps wash her skin, and her eyes became blurry.

Was she still overthinking?
