A Love Forgotten Novel by Webfic

He asked, “What did you say?”

I cleared my throat, my face flushing red as I stammered, “I mean… it’s not like… we can’t. Can we hold

hands?”

Logan was visibly taken aback for a moment, but then he chuckled again.

I glanced at him, muttering under my breath, “We… we already kissed…”

This time, he definitely heard me. Slowly, he nodded, his tone playful. “You’re right. We already kissed. Pretending to play it cool now would just be silly.”

My face burned with embarrassment. “That’s not what meant…”

I didn’t even get to finish my sentence when Logan suddenly pulled me in again, capturing my lips for another kiss.

This time, I was more aware, more present, and I found myself awkwardly trying to respond. I had no idea what had gotten into him, but his body was growing hotter, pressing closer.

Realizing where things were headed, I quickly pushed him away while I still had some semblance of self- control left.

We stood there for a moment, a small distance between us, both struggling to catch our breath and calm down.

“Uh today doesn’t count,” I blurted out.

Logan’s eyes darkened, his curiosity piqued. “What doesn’t count?”

I avoided his gaze, nervously glancing around the room. “I mean today… it doesn’t count as… you know, touching me.”

Logan finally understood, and the realization hit him. He couldn’t hold back his laughter. At first, he tried to suppress it, but soon enough, he was laughing loudly

I panicked and hurriedly covered his mouth with my hand. “Don’t laugh! Teri’s still around!”

His dark eyes sparkled, brighter than I had ever seen them. I was momentarily stunned, caught off guard by how breathtaking he looked when he smiled like that.

Logan hugged me gently, his voice soft as he whispered, “Alright. It doesn’t count. It does starting from next time though, you silly girl,”

I stammered awkwardly, “Wh–who says there’ll be a next time?”

His smirk deepened. “You don’t want there to be a next time?”

Without thinking, I blurted, “Of course I do, I- The words slipped out before I could stop them.

Realizing what I had just said, I wanted to disappear on the spot. What was wrong

with me?

“Well, it’s getting late. I’ll take you to dinner,” he said casually, heading for the door. I followed behind, feeling awkward and flustered

The room we were in was a small, private meeting room, so when we stepped out, we entered the large, open living room.

Logan glanced back at me and said, “Go change into something nicer. I’m taking you to a dinner event.”

He nodded. “Yes,”

Since everything had happened, I’d developed an aversion to leaving the house. I didn’t even want to go downstairs most days.

Logan shook his head. “Yes, you have to. Besides, it’s been three or four days since you’ve gone out.”

I weakly protested, “But I went to the hospital.”

Logan gave me a patient look. I sighed, realizing he wasn’t going to let me off the hook. “Fine. I’ll change. Give me half an hour.”

I headed to my room to get ready. The moment I opened the door, Teri practically jumped out at me from

inside.

“Why are you here?” I asked, startled.

Teri hopped off the bed, her face full of mischief. She circled me, inspecting me from head to toe, even going so far as to sniff the air around me.

“What are you doing?” I asked, baffled.

With a sly grin, Teri said, “You kissed him, didn’t you?”

I nearly jumped out of my skin. “No! I didn’t! Don’t say stuff like that!”

Her grin only widened. “Oh, come on! I can smell it on you. There’s men’s cologne mixed with your scent. Don’t lie to me, girl.”

Mortified, I rushed into my walk–in closet, desperately looking for something to wear. A whole row of dresses hung in front of me, but I was too flustered to pick one properly.

Teri, seeing my state, casually grabbed a bright pink dress and tossed it at me. “Here, little girl. This one.”

I glanced at the dress, wrinkling my nose. “No way! It’s like Barbie pink.”

Teri snorted and threw it back at me. “Wear it. It makes you look younger. Logan will definitely like it.”

I shot her a glare before reluctantly burying myself back in the racks, searching for something less outrageous.
