A NIGHT WITH THE CRAZY CEO

CHAPTER FIFTY NINE

**BRIANNA**

“I’m going to kiss you now.” Adrian said and his lips descended on mine. I froze for a moment before I started reciprocating the kiss. Our lips moved in sync that soon, we got lost in each other’s embraces. I held his neck in a very tight manner because my legs were beginning to feel like jelly and I would fall if I didn’t hold on to something.

His tongue snaked into my mouth and our tongues began a battle of dominance with his tongue dominating within a few seconds. The kiss got more intense as we continued moving our lips without stopping to breath. His hands were still on my waist, kneading and not daring to move past that.

We were so deep into the kiss that we forgot that we were on the dance floor filled with so many people but we didn’t care. We just wanted to continue sucking on each other’s lips like it was our life support, we were lost in a world where there was only the two of us, no one else to disturb or interrupt us.

After like about ten minutes of me and Adrian kissing, he slowly let go of my lips and I opened my eyes to find him already staring at me. His eyes full of different mixed emotions, the only one I could identify was the look of admiration in his eyes.

My whole face was on fire when I realized what just happened. I just freaking kissed my boss, my BOSS. It was like I had lost my mind. Who would have thought that we’ll be sharing a kiss for the second time after the one we had in the elevator? And I enjoyed the kiss so damn much that I wish it would never end but we had to stop.

I looked around to see that some of the people on the dancing floor had stopped dancing and were staring at us with interest. I blushed harder and buried my face in Adrian’s chest.

“They’re all staring at us.” I whispered to him and a deep rich chuckle rumbled from his chest that I felt the vibration against my face.

“Don’t mind them. They’re all busybodies.” He said and stroked my hair.

“Do you want to continue dancing or we should go back to our seats?” He asked, my face still buried in his chest.

“I’ll rather we go back to our seats.” I mumbled but he heard me clearly.

“Alright, let’s go back to our seats then.” He said and I raised my head from his chest, my face still red as I looked around and saw that people had already shifted their attention away from us, a sigh left my mouth when I saw that. Thank goodness.

Adrian got a hold of my hand and the both of us walked back to the table. Cherry and Manuel were back at the table and Carlos and his date were still sitting there. His date doesn’t really seem happy though.

I sat down on the chair I was sitting on before the dance and Cherry attacked me with questions almost immediately.

“What was that kiss all about?” She asked, her eyes filled with questions and eagerness.

“Jeez! You couldn’t even wait for me to like catch my breath or something?!” I glared at her.

“I’m too curious about the kiss to care about that.” She rolled her eyes. “What was the kiss all about? I was shocked to the bones when I saw the both of you kissing, on the dance floor of all places!”

She’s being so dramatic right now. I shouldn’t be surprised because she has always been a drama queen.

“The kiss just happened, Cherry. I don’t know anything else asides from that.” I answered.

“Well, there’s got to be something behind that kiss. Who would have thought that you’ll be kissing Adrian, your crazy boss? The one that loves making you work crazily and makes you miss lunch sometimes?” Cherry quizzed all at once, but she made sure that no one else could hear except me.

“Yes, I kissed him and I think I’ll like to do it again. His lips felt so soft against mine and even thought I haven’t really kissed a lot of people, I know that he’s a very good kisser.” I said, toucking my lips and thinking about the kiss that we had just some minutes ago.

“Girl, you’re in love!” She said with a teasing look but it felt like she was serious.

“No, I’m not. I just like the feel of his lips on mine, nothing serious. Besides, I don’t plan on falling in love with a man after what one has done to my mother.” I responded, remembering the asshole of a father I have, who doesn’t even remember us anymore.

“Oh, I’m so sorry about bringing back the past.” Cherry apologized.

“It’s okay, it’s not your fault.” I smiled but it came out more like a grimace.

We were still conversing when a man began talking on the stage, a spotlight focusing directly on him.

“It’s time for the presentation of awards!” His voice boomed from the microphone he was holding and the people clapped.

The presentation of awards was over in thirty minutes and after that, the gala was over. Apparently, Adrian is going home with five awards to his name. The only ones I can remember being ‘Richest CEO of the year’ and ‘Best CEO Humanitarian of the year’. He was the only one with five awards and I noticed that it made Carlos angry, which he tried so hard not to show but he failed.

We went back to the limousine after everything was over and we drove back to my house. Adrian and I didn’t really say anything to each other during the drive, probably because we didn’t have anything to say or we didn’t know how to say it.

The limousine came to a stop in front of my house and I was about to open the door and alight when Adrian held my hand, stopping from doing so.

“Did you have a good time at the gala?” He asked, still holding onto my hand and I nodded.

“Yeah, I did. It’s not really my type of thing but I enjoyed it.” I responded with a smile.

“What’s your type of thing?” He asked.

“Probably a party where you don’t have to dress up like this…” I paused and gestured at our dresses then continued, “A party where you can dress up casually but not too casual.”

“Oh, I get what you’re saying. Maybe we can go to something like that in the nearest future.” He stated.

“Yeah, maybe.” I bobbed my head.

“So… good night?” I uttered, more like a question and he brought his head closer to mine before he placed a kiss on my lips but quickly pulled away as fast as he kissed me.

“Yeah, good night and sleep tight.” He smiled at me and I alighted from the limousine, my face red and a full-blown smile on my face. I feel like a highschool girl that just got her first kiss from her longtime crush right now.

The driver brought the engine to life and I kept waving at it till the limousine was out of sight.

Then, I turned around and walked to the front door.
