Irresistible Arrangement

Juliette Pov

“How can you tell that?” He asked as his eyes twinkled mischievously and he smiled at my impatient look.

“I know everything about you. Now give it to me” I said as I raised my hands to take that gift which he was holding.

He brought a gift for me but the problem was he was finding it more of a fun to tease me by not giving it to me.

“Nope. I won’t” he said as he raised the box higher in the air. I stood on my tip toe trying to get it but couldn’t because of the height difference.

“Emmett!” I scowled at him and gave up crossing my hands over my chest frustrated.

“Fine! I am going” I said as I began to walk and as soon as I heard him shout for me to wait I inwardly smiled. This was the trick.

“Don’t you want the gift?” He asked following me.

I shook my head negatively and looked around the park to find children running everywhere playing with each other. Their laughter echoed in my ear and I smiled looking at them.

“Aww! But I brought for you” he pouted and I stopped in my tracks glaring at him.

“And You are not giving it to me,” I said and he smiled. He came to me and stood behind my back wrapping his muscular arms around me he gave that box to me.

I smiled and took it from him. While I unwrapped the box he kept his head on my right shoulder, his stubble touching my cheek and I could feel his hot breath fanning my ear.

“Oh my god!” I clamped my hand over my mouth.

Tears pooled my eyes and I couldn’t believe my own eyes.

Inside the box was a very elegant and expensive yet traditional necklace and it was not just some necklace, it was his mother’s necklace.

It was his family’s traditional which was passed down to every generation, to every new bride.

“It’s It’s..” I stammered not finding words to describe how beautiful the necklace was.

“Beautiful?” He completed for me and I nodded smiling as I trailed my finger over the jewellery.

“But not as beautiful as you are,” he said his cheesy line and I blushed but nevertheless elbowed him lightly on his rib.

“But I don’t understand. Why are you giving this me?” I questioned as I turned around to face him.
