Unexpected Second Chance at Love

————

It is beautiful and it is endless. It is full and yet, seems empty. The ocean is emotion incarnated. It loves, it hates and it weeps. It’s waves clashed brilliantly as it brings foam and it’s shadow onto the sand, creating a humming melody of everlasting love.

Like a painting in the distance, it makes one want to keep watching.

"I’m sorry, I took up your time..."

Yue Ling said as she turn to look at the man next to her. After soaking their feet in the ocean for a long time, they had sat down on the sand to dry off. Lu Tian had laid his jacket down for her as the wind died down.

Hearing her words, he looked at her and shook his head. How can she even think of such words? He promised to give her his ears, and that he will always do. Lifting his hand, he drape it over her shoulder.

"You’re not taking up my time. My time had always belonged to you."

He tilt his head and leaned against hers. He meant his words. His time is hers and only hers. If it had been someone else, he wouldn’t care, but she is different. She is his woman, his wife, his first love.....

First love.....

Thinking of the word, he felt a suffocating pain in his heart. A pain he never knew he could experience. He stare out to the vast ocean and ponder in thoughts. Shin was her first love... So did that mean.....

"Tian?"

Yue Ling calls his name when she noticed the man next to her had become quiet. Glancing at him from the corner of her eyes, she smiles inside.

Did he think, by not saying what’s on his mind, she would not know?

Turning to face him, she lift both her hands and place it on Lu Tian’s cheeks. She then gently turn his head to face her.

"Tian..."

Feeling the coldness from her soft hand, Lu Tian frowns. He looks at her and just when he raised his hands to hold her hands, she suddenly spoke.

"I may have loved someone in my past, but now... you are the person I love and want to be with..."

Her lip curls upward into a beautiful arc.

"He was my first love and my first at many things, but you are my last... my forever love."

Forever love.... how nice did that sound.

Lu Tian gaze into Yue Ling’s eyes and he felt himself falling more for her again. Leaning his head towards her, he wanted to kiss her, but thinking of something... he stopped himself.

His brows furrow together more tightly as he pout his lips. He held a sulking expression thinking of her words, ’at many things’. Did that mean she was his first and he was her second?

Subconsciously, he spoke aloud in an almost whisper...

"Does that mean... you and him....."

Catching himself, he quickly stop his words. He moved his eyes from her and cursed inside for being so childish. Never in his life has he ever spoke without thinking.... Even worse, he is jealous of a person who isn’t here anymore.

But who could blame him. He has never loved a woman before and the thought of her in another man’s arms pained him.

Yue Ling stare at the handsome man and she chuckles. From his words and the expression on his face, she could already see where this was going.

Her hands holding his cheeks gripped tighter and gently force him to look at her. When their eyes met each other’s, she didn’t hesitate to lean forward and kiss his lips.

"You are my first."

Like a stone turned into water, Lu Tian felt the happiness he’s never experienced engulf him. Finally, he was a first for her at something.

Placing one hand on the back of her head, he pulled her closer and capture her lips. His tongue broke through her barrier and twirl with hers, deepening their kiss.

Gently, he lay her on the soft sand as his arm became a pillow for her. He didn’t care that they were in the public’s eyes. All he knows is that he was hungry to have her. He wanted her now and the feelings he has for her grew more.

His cold hand slip under her clothes and caress the softness of her skin. From the side of her waist, tracing her curves until his hand reached her breast.

"Nn~ Tian...."

Cupping it, he gently squeeze it, making a soft moan escape her lips. Their lips never leaving each other’s as they share an intense, yet passionate kiss.

Yue Ling wrap her arms around his neck, pulling him down to her. He groan in response, but he loves it when she responds to him. Her hands start to touch him, from his broad shoulders to his muscular arms and back.

Even with his layer of clothes on, she could feel the warmth he was transferring to her. Their heavy breathing and beating hearts warming each other.

Suddenly....

"Tian... wait... we can’t..."

She was pregnant and she wasn’t sure if having sexual intercourse would harm her baby... no... their baby.

Hearing her words, Lu Tian stops and lift his head to look at her. Seeing her swollen red lips, he felt the dragon below awakening. She looked so alluring and captivating, he wanted to take her right now....

Then remembering something, he sighs and press his forehead against hers.

Steadying his heavy breathing, he calms his desire down. How could he have forgotten that she is carrying his child...

He lightly pecks her forehead and sits up. Reaching his arms out, he gently helps her sit up. Then he dust the sand away from her back and the end of her hair.

"It’s getting late, we should head back."

He spoke as he dust the sand off of his clothes. Standing up, he stretch his hand out and she place hers on top of his as she stands.

"Mm. Let’s go home."

Yue Ling looks at the man. His expression was filled with irritation and desire, but at the same time, it was one of caring.

Turning to look at the calm ocean, she takes a deep breath. She will tell him about their baby. There is no reason why she should hide it from him.

"Tian, I have to tell you something."

Holding his hand, she turned to look at him. However, she met his darks eyes staring back at her. His expression was one of awe. It was a warm look that could capture a person’s heart right away. Just like how it captures her.

She smiles at the man and tightens her hand around his.

"I’m..."
