Is this destiny?

Chapter 1078 - Two Missions At The Same Time (3)

~ San Antonio ~

Haru is in the waiting area of the styling salon, waiting for Nala to come after her session is done.

He is waiting for more than half an hour. It seems that it is true how girls take much longer to get ready. There are magazines and a television to pass the time, but he is too nervous.

Haru checked on his phone three times reviews and photos of the restaurant where he got the dinner reservation. It's a romantic restaurant on the riverbank. And he made sure to get a private table by the window.

He saw the curtain obscuring the side door move and he felt that the time froze when Nala made her way out. The red skater dress fits her just right, and her hair is braided and pulled to the back. The high heeled shoes make her long legs even longer. She is usually wearing loosely fitting clothes which are comfortable and practical, ready for exercise. This is the first time he sees her in a dress. Light makeup emphasizes her beautiful features, and he was staring at her lips which shone slightly because of the lip gloss. He regretted not using his half an hour wait to go and buy some flowers, because she deserves all the flowers on the world.

"What do you think?", she asked shyly.

"You are beautiful.", Haru responded under his breath while his expression showed that he is almost possessed.

She smiled. "You are handsome as well."

Nala thought that Haru is super-handsome in well-fitting black pants and a crisp white shirt under a dark blue blazer which showcases his well-defined shoulders. What got her attention is that he got a haircut, which makes him look sharp and edgy at the same time. Her heart raced with every step he made toward her.

Haru likes that she called him handsome. It was the first time that she voiced her approval of his looks. He told himself that he should dress up more often.

They both posed absentmindedly while one of the stylists took their photos. "It comes in the package…", the stylist justified calling back the couple which was openly eager to leave the salon.

The dinner was lovely, but neither of them paid much attention to delicious food or to the romantic views. They were focused on each other and that made it the most romantic experience ever.

They rejected all three waiter's offers for the wine. If Sarah or Aiden find out that they had alcohol, they would be in trouble.

Haru and Nala entered the nightclub without any issues. They were dressed for the occasion, looking smart and the bouncer at the entry didn't even ask for their IDs.

The sight inside was something neither of them expected. People drinking, dancing, laughing… it looked like hundreds of people came with a sole purpose to have fun.

Both Haru and Nala were painfully aware of all the couples… holding each other, kissing, their bodies pressing against each other. It was like everyone was telling them that it's OK to express your affection physically, and no one paid attention to what the couple few inches away was doing.

It was a very different atmosphere than the one in the house where everyone was sneaking glances at them, hoping that they will catch them doing something they can be teased about.

Haru checked the time and leaned closer to Nala so that she can hear him over the blasting music: "We have one hour until we need to focus on the target. Do you want a drink, or…?"

She smiled while thinking, why is he leaning so close when he can use the ear stud? But then… she does not mind having him close. She gestured toward the dancefloor. "How about a dance?"

Haru's eyebrows shoot up. He is not much of a dancer, actually, other than few times goofing around he never danced. But he would like to hold Nala close and seeing from people present that everyone is doing their own thing, he thought that it can't be difficult.

Haru was proven wrong. It was extremely difficult to hold onto Nala, surrounded by people, lots of couples… and so many of them were French kissing! It set the mood to an unexpectedly heated one.

His throat constricted and he really wanted to kiss her, and to try with the tongue as well. He wondered how would that be? Would her taste be sweet and match the way she looks? Because she looks extremely edible.

Haru didn't have much time to think about it, because Nala was thinking the same thing, and impacted by the atmosphere, she kissed him. It was the first time for Nala to initiate a kiss, and it caught him by surprise for a second before he gathered her against his body.

They both shivered when their tongues touched.

Haru was confident that she is sweeter than anything he tasted so far, and her breath mixed with his, and she was holding onto him tightly, her body pressed against his, and it was amazing. Nightclubs are amazing! This is nothing like the Chaos club where people are shouting and fighting. Well, it's noisy here as well, and in a way it might seem that every couple is engaged into some kind of a match, but it was hot and steamy, at least that is how he felt.

Nala was holding onto him, like she is holding onto her lifeline. Haru was overwhelming and she felt that she needs to step up her game if she does not want to disappear in the heat of his flames. He was super handsome, and intense and the kiss was wet and a bit sloppy at first, but she didn't mind because after few seconds they found their rhythm, and the only thing on her mind is that she does not want this to end.

It took a minute for Nala to realize what is that hard thing grinding against her core. It was embarrassing and exciting at the same time and she struggled between pushing him away and pulling him closer.

Haru was consumed in the kiss and his need to hold her tightly, unaware that she can feel him. He struggled to keep his hands on her back, because it was so easy to imagine his hands going under that dress and reaching for her sweet spots which he imagined many times before.

'Time: 9:55 PM, Step: go into the position to intercept the target', a message was shown on their lenses, pulling them out of the kissing frenzy with a reminder that they are on a mission.

They broke the kiss and both of them breathed heavily before heading toward the staircase. Based on the plan, Melodie will walk this way and go to the restroom on the main floor. Nala will go after her, while Haru takes care of the bodyguards, if any. Nala will exit with Melodie from the side exit, and Haru will follow one minute behind to ensure they are not followed. They will meet at the parking lot and head to the hotel.

At 9:57 PM, Haru and Nala were in the position. Now they need to wait for Melodie. She said after 10 PM, but that can mean 10:05 PM or midnight… they are not sure. She will probably find a convenient time and they need to wait.

Haru used options in Eve-vision and he was pleasantly surprised that it confirmed location of the target in the VIP room and he was able to set a warning when she leaves the room. He shared his discovery with Nala, and she was happy because this means that they don't need to stare at every person coming down the stairs.

Now that they don't need to focus on the staircase, it means that they can focus on each other.

Haru pinned Nala against the wall and another kissing frenzy began. They didn't care if anyone is watching, and no one paid attention to them because most of the people around them were doing the same thing.

Sarah and Aiden are correct: the best way to go into a nightclub and blend into the crowd is to go as a couple.
