''Okay?''

Tiana asked again when she did not get a reply from him, her head turning around, so she could peek at his face.

Nicklaus arms went around her and he pulled her closer to him, hugging her tenderly.

''Let's stay like this for a while. '' He said and closed his eyes, leaning his head on the headboard; 

''So you're no longer angry? '' she asked, wanting to be sure he wasn't just averting the topic;

''Mm ''

''We'll do the function? ''

''Yeah, we'll do it. ''

Tiana smiled and relaxed on his chest, her eyes gazing at his features. Even though she was just pretending, she could not deny the fact that she liked the warmth of his arms. In fact, if not that she had some dignity; she wouldn't even want to leave his arms. He smelt so nice, and he was very handsome, definitely, his hug would be nothing less than intoxicating.

Tiana's eyes blinked as she admired him;

How could a man's lashes be so long?

She wondered as she studied his features. A pout formed on her cheeks as she realized that he was really too handsome. Too bad he had a sad personality; he would have been a perfect match for any woman.

''I've hugged no one like this before. '' Nicklaus spoke suddenly, pulling Tiana out of her daze;

''Mm? '' Tiana's eyes widened unbelievably;

Was he saying he had never hugged a man or woman before?

''Are you surprised? '' Nicklaus asked, but Tiana did not reply, she just stared at him, obviously not believing what he said.

''I've hugged no woman before, you're the first, beautiful. ''

Okay, now she gets it. He had not hugged any woman before but he had hugged men. Tiana gulped, her body cringing at that thought. The warmth she felt in his arms became repulsing that instant and she felt like pulling away but she stopped herself.

''Well, it's not surprising. Most gays are very handsome. ’' She commented with a slight sigh and Nicklaus eyes which were shut flung open instantly.

 ''Wait… what?! ''

Nicklaus felt his stomach churn at her words and his face paled instantly;

Tiana's brows creased when she heard his question and she lifted her head from his chest, her eyes gazing at him; 

''I know you don't want your family to know, I will not tell anyone, your secret is safe with me.''

He was still shocked of what she just said and she was sprouting another. He had heard the rumors about him being gay but he didn't pay much attention to them because they weren't true, but now that someone he cared about thought he was gay, he couldn't help but feel disturbed.

''Beautiful, who… who told you that?''

Nicklaus asked, his expression getting worried;

Tiana sighed lightly; she knew he felt shy that she found out about his sexual preferences, but he shouldn't worry about it, she wouldn't judge him for it. She wasn't even in the position to.

''It is okay, really. You don't have to be shy about it, I won't tell anyone. ''

She smiled, placing her hand on his chest; Nicklaus grabbed it immediately and kissed it.

''No Beautiful, I'm not gay. What the… '' Just the thought of him with a man made his stomach churn. And to think she had thought of him like that for so long!

Nicklaus swallowed hard as he squeezed her hand again;

''Really, those were just rumors because I've never been seen with any woman; I didn't try to address it because I didn't see a need to. Christ, for how long have you thought of me like that? ''

Nicklaus couldn't help asking; his face paint red.

Tiana's eyes widened in surprise as she stared at him;

Was he saying that he wasn't gay?

That she was the only woman that had been this close to? Did he really mean everything he said to her?

Tiana's heart slammed against her chest as she found all the things she had believed crumbling to pieces.

''Do I even look like a gay? Have you seen me intimate with any man before? God, I can't believe I'm even saying this! ''

Nicklaus chuckled lightly. Before then, he didn't mind what anyone said about him, but with her, he wanted to prove himself. He just realized he was concerned about what she thought about him.

Tiana didn't know why she was feeling relieved after hearing that he wasn't gay as she had thought. Maybe because she wouldn't feel repulsed when he hugged her again;

''Well, '' She laughed; ''you do look gay; most of them are a little too handsome. ''

Nicklaus cheeks flushed red at her statement;

''So you're saying that I'm too handsome? ''

He asked, raising an eyebrow.

Tiana realized what her statement meant, and she blushed, her eyes looking away from him;

''No, no… that's not what I meant… ''

She stammered trying to defend herself but her red cheeks gave her away; Nicklaus laughed heartily, his voice resounding in the room. Tiana felt her heart skip a beat, she had not seen him laugh so sweetly before, and he was even sexy while laughing;

She gulped;

''Well, I know I'm very good looking, but when you say it, I feel like the handsomest man alive.''

He grinned, catching her glare, making him laugh a little more.

''So, where are we going tomorrow? ''

He asked, changing the topic immediately;

Tiana thought for a moment and she remembered that she promised to go fun places with him.

''Mm… Let's go to the movies, I haven't been to the movies in so long, what do you say? ''

She tilted her head, as she waited for his reply;

''wouldn't there be so many people?'' Nicklaus asked, his brows creasing;

Tiana laughed; ''don't tell me you're afraid of people? ''

She asked, her brows narrowing at him;

''No, I'm not. It's just that I haven't been amid so many people before. ''

Nicklaus explained, and she nodded;

''Not to worry, before the month runs out, you'll get used to being with so many people, cause we'll be going to places with many people.''
