Embrace Love's
CH 46'S. Rainy night part 3

Claude woke up when he felt a cold chill run through him. He opened his eyes and stared at the almost extinguished fireplace.

Claude woke up, realizing his blanket was sagging. He pulled her until she wrapped her body up to her shoulder. Claude immediately moved closer to the fireplace, he stuffed a few more large pieces of wood into the fire. The sound of rain outside was still heard, he did not know at this time what time it had been.

Claude returned to his position and glanced at Catalina who was asleep beside him. The girl was covered in a blanket to her shoulders. But his hands were outstretched from inside the blanket, he lay sideways facing Claude.

The fire that returned to light made the room warm again. Claude laid down his body, sideways facing towards Catalina. He clasped the girl's hand, channeling warm air at Catalina's icy fingertips, his two eyes staring at the blue eyes now hidden behind his closed petals.

Claude's mind wandered at the first moment they met, how fierce this girl was back then. Her lips flashed a smile, then as if moved by something, Claude stuck out the tip of his index finger, stroking Catalina's lips on the part where there was a faint black dot, a small mole. He used to get a slap when he wanted to see the black dot closer.

Claude smiled again, he approached, with his eyes still staring into Catalina's closed eyes. Slowly he kissed Catalina's forehead, his heart warmly watching the girl who had fallen asleep confidently give up her protection in Claude's hands.

I want to kiss you, but that kiss is all I can do, or you'll wake up and not trust me anymore. I'll slow Catty down, if that's what you need, but you can't run, my dear ... You're stuck with me, all you can do is give up, and then start falling in love.

Claude nodded slowly again. Just as he lifted his lips from Catalina's forehead, Catalina moved, the girl curled up and sucked her head into Claude's chest.

Claude was silent, not daring to move, afraid that Catalina would wake up and think she was doing nothing. He tried to shift, starting with his legs and lower body, then as he was about to retreat, Catalina reached out.

The soft hand hugged Claude's body, wrapped around his chest and pressed his head against Claude's chest. As if the ordeal didn't stop there, the blanket surrounding Catalina sagged from her shoulder as she moved.

The sight of a white shoulder with a black bra strap was immediately displayed in Claude's eyes. Claude closed his eyes

Oh my God ... I hope you don't wake up now, Catty. I'm not ready for you to slap again ....

Claude pulls Catalina's blanket, covers it back onto the girl's shoulder, then he tries to get back away.

"Mom ... Stay here," Catalina's delirium rang out in Claude's ears.

Claude raised his eyebrows, Mom? He put his head over the bed of blankets and held back the amused laughter that would come out of his lips at that moment.

Catty ... You fell asleep and hugged a man, but you called it Mom ....

Claude pulled the long naoas, let Catalina hug him, and he allowed himself to also hug the girl.

If you wake up and get angry.

Catalina woke up and felt her hands hugging something. He opened his eyes and found himself at Claude's side. Claude slept on his back with one side of his hand raised above Catalina's head. Catalina fell asleep under the man's armpits on her side and hugged Claude's chest.

Catalina regained her senses and swallowed. It seemed like he was approaching Claude in a state of sleep, a shame. Catty pulled Claude's sagging blanket, perhaps it was his hand that had pulled the man's blanket. He stared at the fireplace, the tongue of fire still dancing giving warmth there. Looks like Claude has added wood to that fire.

Catalina turned to face the sleeping Claude. Just this time the man's face looked a little attractive to Catalina, he felt something change in the bottom of his heart when he saw Claude.

The man can do anything if he wants, they are stuck there and there is nothing Catalina can do but rely on Claude. Claude kept his word, wouldn't do a no-no to him.

"Cats ... What was? You cold?" ask her while staring into the fireplace. The wood he had added had not burned up . Claude got up and sat down, his blanket sagging again to the waist. The man rubbed his head, sleeping only for a while so that his head felt a little pain, he then pinched his forehead repeatedly.

"What's wrong? Your head hurts?" ask Catalina.

"You haven't answered me yet, Catty. Why awaken? You cold?"

"Tb ... No ...." That stammered reply made Claude look up. The girl's blushing face made Claude raise his eyebrows. The gaze of the girl's eyes was anchored on her bare chest which was no longer covered in blankets.

"Restrain your eyes, Catty," said Claude hoarsely.

Catalina raised her eyes and looked at Claude, the girl gulped, the red face and the strange look to her body that made Claude's blood rustle. But Catalina's eyes came back down, as if the brain's orders and the desires of her eyes were different.

Claude nailed Catalina's face and inched closer.

"I told you to move your eyes, Cat .." Claude whispered.

Catalina fell silent stiffly as Claude was already sitting before her. He looked up at Claude's already glittering eyes, the man's face looking strange in his eyes. It was as if the man was holding something back with all his might.

They looked at me for a while. Catalina blinked as Claude's face approached, then she felt those lips touch hers. Cuddling and kissing him. It was a thrilling experience for Catalina, because within seconds she realized, she also wanted this kiss. His heart beat as if chasing each other, running nonstop until his breathing felt very tight. His hands clasped tightly onto the blanket, his lungs feeling like they were about to rupture.

Claude smacked, frowned and kissed, no longer holding back his urge to touch the girl's lips. Catalina's resigned attitude made her tilt her head, hug Catalina's body and deepen the kiss.

Moments later, Claude realized that the girl in his arms was not breathing at all,

He immediately raised his head.

"Pull your breath, Cat!" Claude's orders. Instantly Catalina inhaled the air greedily, filling her lungs as much as possible.

After Catalina's breath was no longer hunting, Claude stared with a slanted smile.

"This time don't hit me Catty ... Hm." Claude holds Catalina's chin.

"You feeling it? Like me?" Claude pulled one of Catalina's hands and placed the girl's palm onto her left chest. The place where his heart beats fast and hard.

"If you want us to go through the rest of the night just fine, then turn your eyes to my dear Catty."

Catalina pulled her hand out as fast as lightning. Claude's words seemed to permeate and disperse the spell that surrounded him. He retreated and moved away.

Claude looked at Catalina who was inching backwards, then he moved to his feet by holding his blanket. Catalina saw Claude turn around, the man opened the door of the cottage and came out with a blanket over his shoulder and then closed the door again, leaving Catalina herself to look at the fireplace with an erratic heart. The sound of rain out there is still heard even though it is not as loud as before. But to see and take Claude back to the cabin, Catalina realizes she has no courage.
