Dragon Loves Me

Maia nodded her head and they headed upstairs. Oliver showed her the rooms and explained about the things when Maia inquired.

After looking around the house they both went to the backyard of the house to look at the flowers planted by Hana.

Maia's eyes caught something and she went to check that out. Oliver also paused in his steps to look at her before following behind her.

"WOW.. It's really a swing." Maia was excited after seeing the swing and ran towards it.

Oliver also saw the swing which was hung to the tree with two ropes. The seat is a wooden plank making it easy to sit.

"You liked this?" Oliver asked while walking towards her.

"Yes, I thought I was not going to see this after coming here." Maia's eyes shone and inquired, "Oliver, have you ever tried to swing?"

She thought that swings won't be available in this place as she didn't see swings anywhere. In the modern world, Whenever she visits any parks she will search for the swings first. So it became a habit of hers.

Oliver was surprised by her question "Umm… N-No."

"Really? Then you have to try this. It will be super fun." Maia said with stars in her eyes and went towards him.

"What?" Oliver was shocked, but seeing her expectant gaze he didn't know how to reply. Maia saw his hesitation and dragged him towards the swing.

Oliver hesitated to sit on it, Maia didn't give him a chance to find any excuses and forcibly made him sit on the swing. Oliver was embarrassed to do this kind of thing at his age, if someone from his troop saw this scene they would faint with shock.

"Don't worry, Relax. You won't fall down." Maia tried to make him calm. "Trust Me."

Oliver looked at her when he heard those two words, those words triggered something in his heart and he nodded by looking directly into her eyes.

Maia smiled widened and patted his shoulder showing her appreciation. After that she went behind him and touched the edges of wood before positioning herself to push it.

"Ready. 1. 2." Maia stepped backwards along with the swing to release it with a little force to warm his mind "3. aaannnddd Gooo"

Maia pushed it gently making it swing towards, Oliver found this scene funny and at the same time heart warming. There was no one beside him to play these games when he was young and he never dreamed of these things as well because he thought these were extravagant to him.

The swing moved forward and came backward, causing Maia to push it again with little more energy. After three to four pushes the swing started moving to and fro on its own.

"Yay. Isn't it fun Oliver?" a sweet melodious laugh reached Oliver and he looked at her automatically. Oliver saw Maia who was laughing happily and cheered him while clapping her hands, his heart totally tuned soft like a cotton.

"Mm. It's fun," Oliver replied with gentleness in his eyes. If Ethan saw this scene he would tease Oliver for the rest of his life.

Maia was awestruck by seeing the gentleness in his eyes, their both eyes locked and their eyes swayed along with swing until it came to a stop.

Time seems to have stopped for both of them and they looked at each other passionately like they have known each other for a long time.

Maia came out of her trance and removed her gaze from him 'Maia, control.'

"Now, it's my turn." Maia went towards the swing. Oliver also came out of his trance when he heard Maia's words.

He smiled and walked aside to give her some space to sit on the swing. Maia positioned herself properly on the swing and looked at Oliver who was standing behind her.

"Push me. Oliver."

Oliver nodded his head and he also mimicked her actions by moving back a little before releasing the swing. The Swing travelled through the air making Maia hair dance.

When the swing came back he pushed it again and this time Maia giggled with happiness. "Woohoo.."

"Oliver, push me a little hard. I want to touch that branch." Maia showed the branch of the tree. Oliver worried after hearing her request.

"No, It will be dangerous." Oliver declined and pushed her again.

"What.. No push me please" Maia pleaded while coming back to him.

Oliver's heart started to quiver and said "Just for one time."

"Yes. Come on" Maia shouted and Oliver pushed her with force higher than before.

"WOO.." Maia grabbed the rope with her right hand and released her left hand to touch the branch but it missed by an inch.

"Come on. It's just there Oliver. You can do it" Maia motivated him to push her, Oliver chuckled seeing her antics and obliged her request.

"Yay.. Here I am coming.." Maia this time reached near the branch and touched it but she swaggered a bit causing Oliver's heart to drop to his stomach.

"Maia…"

Maia stabled herself and smiled at Oliver who came in front to catch her. Seeing her come down smoothly made Oliver's heart calm down a bit.

After a few more swings by herself the swing stopped and Maia jumped down excitedly. The sudden jump after the swing made her feel dizzy and she missed her footing. Maia tried to grab something to stop herself from falling but she grabbed air and started falling down on her face.

'Oh. No'

Oliver came rushing towards her to help her and stumbled back when he caught her causing both of them to fall on the ground and their bodies collided. Oliver sensed smoothness on his lips.

Maia thought that she was going to eat dirt and closed her eyes and embraced herself for pain but she felt smooth and hot on her lips.

"Mmm?"

Oliver's eyes widened when he saw the position they were in and his heart started beating violently. He felt the smooth, soft and cool lips on his lips and the sudden thought of having them for a bit longer made his body turn rigid.

Maia opened her eyes slowly to see the thing she fell on, she peeked through one eye and her eyes widened in an instant when she saw the position.

Maia startled and tried to get up by placing her hands on his chest, but while trying to stand in a hurry made her fall again "AHH"

"Smooch"

This time their lips crashed with a sound making both of their faces turn red. She instantly raised her head and looked at Oliver apologetically 'God. I did a sin by maligning this pure man.' Maia cried inwardly.

When she pressed her hand on his chest, Oliver groaned in pain "Maia. Please stop."

Oliver felt that heat in his body and he felt pain on his thigh, when she fell again, her knee hit his thigh hardly making him wince.

"Sorry, Oliver. I-I didn't mean to..." Maia tried to say something but no words came out of her mouth.
