Take My Breath Away

"Beats me. Why don't you call Grandpa and ask him about it? But the mission is highly confidential. Grandpa probably doesn't know much about it. Prepare for the worst," Niles told Blair. Wesley could be assigned to a mission and no one would know when he'd be back. It was an occupational hazard. Niles got used to it. Maybe Blair needed to be, too.

"Okay," Blair said.

"Blair, you're so lucky to have someone like my brother. I'd marry rich, too, if I were a chick."

"It's not too late. You still have time," Blair joked.

"I've got a star to pursue in this life. I got you a birthday present too. I sent it off a few days ago. You're welcome. I'm your brother-in-law, after all. Remember that, next time my brother decides to beat me up. Bye."

"Um, bye."

Sitting in the lounge, staring at the bunny, Blair didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

'I hate you, Wesley! I hate you! I hate you!

You didn't tell me anything about being deployed elsewhere. You've been gone for two months and didn't call me even once. And now on my birthday you give me two big surprises!' Blair complained inside, touching the diamond ring in her pocket.

'But why did he tell the delivery guy he was my husband? The other day, when he drove me home, he also told my roommate he was my husband.

Is he planning on proposing?

No, probably not. That's not his style.

I could probably die of old age before he decided to propose.

Ack! This is so depressing.'

After work, Blair went to her uncle's for dinner. The Ji family threw her a birthday party.

By the time she got back to her dorm, she had two other birthday presents waiting for her, one from Niles and the other from Cecelia, both expensive. Blair gave them each a phone call to say thank you.

The night wore on, but Blair still couldn't sleep. She stared at the diamond ring and the bunny. He asked her to wait for him, but for how long? Till she was so old her hair turned white and she had no teeth left?

There were words engraved on the inside of the band, "I Love You."

She wondered whether We

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

t to punish you by making you kiss me and decide where we're going to have sex next time. Do you like that kind of punishment?"

Now her face was burning. "Wesley, are you calling just to turn me on? It's not working," she announced in a feigned careless tone. But her voice was thick with lust.

"The other guys were watching porn. And I thought of you," Wesley continued.

'Porn?' Blair's jaw dropped. Having no idea what kind of mission he was on, Blair jeered. "Porn? What kind of mission are you on, anyway? I'm not sure I know you anymore!"

"I have to go. Listen, they're restricting my phone time. Call Damon or Curtis if you need help. And... I love you." He was afraid that if he didn't say it now, he would never have the chance. But since he had her on the phone now, he'd say it as much as he could.

Then he hung up.

'And... I love you.'

Blair was still lost in those three words. Tears gushed from her eyes like a broken dam.

He said it! He finally said it! All the waiting paid off.

"Boo...hoo..." She cried her heart out in the serenity of the night.

'Wesley, I hate you! I hate you! I hate you!

If you don't like me, why keep teasing me and say something like that? You're such a jerk.'

Blair felt the man was deliberately torturing her.

Even so, she was still looking forward to lunar July 7th, Chinese Valentine's Day, coming soon.
