The deep pitter-patter of the heavy rain reverberated through the window shutter of my apartment as I adjusted in my sleep, pulling the blanket tightly around my curled body. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lJEK3ZZSY
The need to make the necessary call to check on his well-being was increasing through each passing minute. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLDItzxVe8
I glanced at my silent phone, time being past midnight and seeing that there were no missed calls from him, eventually I settled on going back to sleep. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULTJi8BrvJ
Which proved to be a tougher task 'cause half of my stupid self was wondering if he got home safely while other half threw cactus at the first half for making such speculations of him reaching home at his first date, stubbornly making me imagine various interesting and steamy ways he might be enjoying his date with Kiara. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmjgS1DFgF
Hell, no! Heath wasn't like that. As far as I knew, I was fairly informed of all his barely touched relationships with women and none of them involved his own will but was rather, forced upon him by his very own father, who, if he ever got the chance to confront bravely, was going to get the piece of his mind someday. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFyNf7U2nj
But that was out of question, since Heath barely visited his home, let alone having good relations with his father. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxLmAMC17x
As for his mother, he never mentioned anything about her, except for the day she was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis and I still remember the day he asked me to leave him alone, after hearing of his mother's sickness, which I clearly protested against and he gave me his one reserved look of You-better-back-out-before-I-turn-into-a-wolf which did pretty much of a harm to my already bruised dignity. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReZpt8P2sG
I clutched the blanket around my fingers, wetting my lips in deep thought but after a minute of being held prison by my own evilness, I kicked the pillow in frustration and decided to give in to my conscience for once. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3OemuL3vE
When he didn't respond after my second call, I knew he wasn't home, or he was already asleep after his strenuous date. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlrse1KSYE
Or maybe he loved every inch of it. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdlu7eNrvi
Deciding it better to visit him in person, hurriedly I put on my jacket and shoes and marched to his apartment, after hauling taxi from across the rainy street corner.759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOP8NjIO1H
It was only after I reached his front door, was I able to realize I actually forgot to pick umbrella with me and after typing his house passcode with trembling fingers and shivering spine, I opened the door in slight rush, making the polished wooden door thud against the adjacent wall, leaving slight scratches. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTVSGc7Wlr
Heath was in the midst of opening his shirt when he looked at me, his fingers loosing movement the minute he laid his eyes on my soaked form. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsV3TVVuGb
"Hi." I croaked out, waving hesitantly at him. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7GTlkXpx8
He raised his one eyebrow to examine my face before he let his eyes trail downward, and almost instantly, as if afraid of looking down, he plasterd his gaze again on my face, with a blank face. "What happened?" He asked.759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbTWTslGYcD
"I..I..." I opened my mouth to answer him, but found it difficult to continue further. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvmwS7wUTD
He stopped unbuttoning his shirt, and went to his room, quietly, and emerged with a fresh towel.759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOnjiqeUGm
"Here."I felt soft material land on my wet forehead, my temple itching with the prolonged rainwater sticking to my face.759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTa6bZrcNf8
Tentatively, I grabbed the towel, and rubbed it against my soaked face and over the wet clothes clinging to my body as a second skin. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrip2n8lK8
With the corner of his eyes, he glanced to make sure I was drying myself before moving aside the unnecessary things from his dining table aside and picked two clean coffee mugs from the kitchen cupboard. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RuocDDryC
"Why're you still standing there?" He asked me when I made no move to close the door and enter inside his apartment. "I thought you came to check on me." He said, with a hint of smile on his voice. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEClh1c0BtS
My eyes widened at his words and quickly I fumbled with my shoes and walked to his apartment, seating myself comfortably on his couch. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfKqMQbhel
"Who said I came to check on you?" I muttered, grabbing blindly any book from his study table and clutched it in my fingers, proudly, ready to show him the proof of my claim. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRipvJ9aXn
When he turned around, carrying two coffee mugs in his hand, I pretended to read something from the book in my hands, my mind totally fixed on making back up excuses if the one in my hand didn't work. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFJWx5I6U9
"Why're you here then? Your dishevelled state of-"759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQCvJV3Din
"I forgot a very important book while leaving your apartment." He looked at me with a questioning gaze and I practically shoved the book on his face, too eager to prove him wrong. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiC1faPJtY
He stared at the book, then at me and then again at the book, and slowly, a faint teasing smile spread threatened to spread on his face, before he put the coffee mugs on the table and crossed his hands across his chest, his muscles flexing against his tight shirt. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqB3Q0GouC
"What?" I started, irritated by his response. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKk2ZP4q9z
"Are you sure it's the one you've been looking for.." His right lip curled upwards. "in the middle of the night" He regarded me with mild amusement, before looking outside his windows. "in this rainy storm." He traced the corner of my jawline with his scrutinizing eyes, finally trailing his gaze down my wet slightly heaving breasts and legs. "half-naked."759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKU3EXPUKQ
I blushed at his boldness. "Yes! It's the one-" Quickly, I turned the book around to read it's title so that I could clearly show him I was really looking for my book and almost immediately, I threw the book on farthest corner of the room, wiping my hands frantically on my wet top, as if just the title had managed to rob me of all my innocence, and engulfed me in its sultry world. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesfw6S2d2I
Seventeen ways to have him inside you. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2blTkAP3l
-By Rixon Gold. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYFah4fJwl
God, I almost vomited the heart out of my mouth reading that title. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3xFmNoqTY
Who even cares how many ways he is inside you as long as you have him love you daily? 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnD1ObgZWd
I mean I wouldn't care if we made love daily, with the same angle everyday, I would just be content with him ins-759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Mcno3R8e6
I heard him cough beside me and, blushed at my own hidden dirtiness, avoiding his eyes. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9IpOSmw7y
"You sure keep some interesting specimens of literature in your study." I accused him, taking the coffee mug and leaning against his dining table. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hEoeCLFBb
I glanced at him when he didn't reply. "I suppose I should give the credit to Jennifer for gifting you such beautiful analogies of human reproduction."759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQ5u0wU5GD
It was plausible enough that his sister, who had a face of an angel but soul of a devil, could commit such heinous act of spoiling her own younger brother. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUT5KoGlVh
He shrugged, eyeing the book on the floor dangerously. "Not entirely. My mother owns more than half of it."759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PKDXzeqOx
Like daughter. Like mother. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRpMuxfrKX
But I liked Mrs Evercrest. She's most beautiful and graceful lady I ever had the honors to cross paths with. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAmyexcrWA
Though she was mostly busy with serving her family with utmost devotion, she would drop by his son's apartment almost at every weekend to fill his needs for nutrition and healthy munches.759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5tKKAey8Z
Though Heath didn't seem to be grateful of his own mother's unconditional affection for him!759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYy039JsEHK
She was the sad mother, undoubtly genuine one, concerned for her son's well-being cause her daughter grew up too wild to her taste, and so, she made sure at almost every family gathering that her son hadn't caught on her daughter's germs by staying in the same room together. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4ce8VwM7V
Which was kinda impossible as Heath wasted no time in kicking his sister's ass whenver she'd get too wild, bossy or sassy with him, though it earned him almost equal intensity of retaliation, four out of every five times, considering Miss Jennifer didn't take shit even from her own brother. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozx6NTpe8I
But keeping the usual animosity between siblings aside, Heath and Miss Jennifer were goals. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKAnKSz5Sk
Too bad my mother didn't marry the man with a son. I'd have loved to play brother-sister with him. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR92czb2qiR
Taking one sip from my mug, I looked at Heath to see him in deep thought. "How did the date go?"759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgCJaAmtzp
As if broken out of his reverie, he blinked at me before answering. "Ah. Date." He paused, thinking something, as if remembering the night's events, before looking at me. "Yeah. It was good."759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGhrgZJ7NK
I narrowed my eyes at him. "Good? Just good? What'd you do, Heath?"759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMq4d740Ht
He shrugged. "I just followed your instructions." He glanced brifely at me, before continuing. "You told me to smile and wave it off. I just did that."759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeBZbJiXG6
"So...What'd you two do then?"759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ110EA2qhC9
"We talked, ate, and enjoyed." He looked apologetic. "In silence." He completed, obviously feeling dejected and disappointed. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwoF0RfC1O
I frowned. "Silence? You two ate in silence? How is this even possible? I mean I know you aren't very talkitive, hell sometimes, even I had to butt-heads with you to put words in your mouth!" He glared at me but I was already immune to all his scaring tactics. "I thought your taciturnity changed after all these years." I completed, feeling remorse for him. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXoKZvVeKi
He shook his head. "It wasn't entirely silent. I love silence but that one was a bit unnerving. Only Kiara talked, she asked me a lot of things and I think I had replied to all her doubts properly-"759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhNvlldRZi
"Doubts?"759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLKKsiLwzv
"Yeah. She asked me if my favourite singer was Eminem. She just assumed it was him without even taking my choice in consideration-"759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiTFy5S0BT
"You went on a date, Heath. Not on a courtroom to defend some raped victim." I put my empty cup down the sink and turned on the tap to wash it.759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwzVeB1lPt
759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXonYzBKae
"It was Kiara's ways of asking your interests, likes and dislikes, hobbies, wants and whether you'd still like to go on a next date with her."759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlo1eVrNuCV
Health frowned deeply at my revealation. I understood his inexperience and undeftness in such subjects but still, he was a man so I thought he wouldn't need suggestions in those areas of love life.759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUc6cdRry1
"Yes. I'd love to go on another date with her. She's pretty, cute and tolerable. I think she's the one, Scarlett." I paused hearing his words, my heart twisting painfully in my chest, throbbing harder but kept my lips pressed in a thin line. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKwaVPs1rs
After a pause, Heath continued. "It'd have been better if I had been courageous enough to tell her that. It's frustrating how I messed it all up, Scarlett! I had been so close to wooing her tonight. She was right in front of me, smiling, talking, stealing glances. But I let my nervousness and inexperience take over me. I'm such a fool Scarlett. I'm such a-" He took one glance at me, then at himself, then at me again before he took one sip of his coffee and spoke "Never mind."759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoXia9yHvo
I didn't respond. I thought it was better this way, if I would just ignore some things, some pretty unbearable confessions, some loud thudding of my heart, some raw desire of my body, some hard feelings of lo-759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrGnJWUsvi
I coughed, -we'd both be happy in our own spheres, I completed hurriedly in my mind. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxioHim0Ym
Placing the cleaned cup inside the cupboard, I took his own empty cup from his hands and washed it down the running water. "Leave them on the sink. Maid will take care of it." He said. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1F14gnCSYs
"I'm already done with it." Wiping my wet hands in the kitchen towel, I took my place, leaning on the dining table beside him. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdc32H9TAv5
Soft blow of semi-wet breeze from the corner of the slightly open window reminded me I was still in my wet clothes and I shivered in cold, wrapping my hands around my shoulders to keep me warm. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTx0X2Vj2e
I heard Heath shuffle beside me before he placed soft dry towel on my still wet hair, applied pressure over the cloth and started to dry my hair. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HPs8w81w0
"I can do it mys-" I tried to take the towel from his hands but he used his height to his advantage. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9HwphdGvU
"Keep still." He said, his voice hinting authority and I pressed my lips in thin line, nodding meekly. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEAXvVIB44
His hand gripped the back of my neck, keeping me in place while his fingers took their liberty in wiping the moisture off my face, gliding deliciously down my throat, settling over the throbbing pulse.759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqIolLKUKB
Blood rushed to my face as he fingered the strap of my top, while still drying the last of the moisture from my brown curls before he slid the elastic strap down a little, off my shoulder. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9SB33Fhkf
Suddenly, I felt exposed, and quickly, I looked down to see my black wet bra clearly visible and tightly sticking to my breasts, shaping them almost evenly, leaving ample amount of cleavage to the view. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gnp7uLCIS
I put my hands over his which were still holding the top down and tucked on it, gently, urgently. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1T3bC0DAf
"I can do it myself from here." I stated. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBXuaOXNta
As if he didn't hear my words, Heath put the drying towel over my bare shoulders and started to rub gently over the moisture clinging to my skin. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaX2cDD7MtR
The pads of his thumb and forefinger moved slowly and tortourously over my bare skin, making me bit my lips from making any sound. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLURRX5xbh4
My knees felt weak from being under his slow and agonizing touch for long, as he removed the towel from my shoulder but didn't cover my bare skin thereafter. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXxz0lJAYE
I could feel his eyes on my exposed shoulder, boring holes at it, and not longafter, I felt his knuckles grazing my chin, tilting it to the side, and exposing my throat. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbo2pXEMgjD
His right hand caressed my wet hairs, and my eyes drooped low, threatning to shut in the delicious sensation. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXNXCXe8k0
Faint sound of cloth hitting the floor registered in the far corners of my mind before his left hand inclined to my face, and he turned it around to trace my cheek with his knuckles, his breathing slowing down, almost strained, as he pressed his hand further onto my skin, his big rough hands cupping my face now. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPcJTFyfsj
I leaned unconsciously to his touch, his fingers stroking my cheek, towel long forgotten on the floor while his other hand was still threaded into my hairs, his fingers running between the brown curls, as he traced the length of my hair, down my back and reaching the end of it, he left my hair hanging in length as he slowly, hesitantly, traced my back, making delicious pleasure ran down my spine and after minutes of slow torture, finally settled his hands around my waist, but still maintaining the respectable distance between us. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMDKSGo8Ff
An unidentified noise escaped my lips as I felt his breath near my soaked chest, hot breath making me shiver in ironic coldness and I blushed in sheer embarrassment to see he was probably looking at my topless chest now. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82J1GLo6H8
Suddenly feeling modest, I jerked my knees down to his position and tried to grab the towel from his hands, making his hot open lips brush accidently against my cleavage. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLQOmZJWOV
Immediately closing my eyes in pleasure and embarrassment, as the wetness of his hot lips registered on my bare skin, I put my trembling fingers on his arms and clutched his sleeves, tightly, desperatly, roughly, feeling the buttons on his sleeves press bluntly against my palm. My knees felt jelly under my legs and I didn't know for how long I was going to be able to stand upright in his arms.759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ876JXZOlVO
Both of us froze at the unexpected contact, as he stilled in his place, in his motions, in his ministrations, his lips hovering above my heavily heaving chest, my heartbeat quickening wildly with each passing minute. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB23BtyuWsU
With some difficulty, I managed to pull myself up to save myself some embarassment and left his sleeves almost immediately, turning away from him, tucking a strand of hair behind my ear in nervousness.759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuI3BSBKPK
I heard him stood up from his position, standing there for minutes, before he walked towards me and I felt my heart going insane from anticipation. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoH6Zu6Wd27
What would he say? 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25ryiavnTM
That I pushed myself at him deliberately!?759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHRVXlkVs5
No, I didn't. It was just some bloody women reflex I had intentionally been born with!759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSW4QTlGJk
Would he understand? 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDzIPlx3nQ
I would surely die of shame if he didn't, oh god. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExY3V6jKUK
Dear all gods and their goddess in heaven, let me have safe heroic exit from this earth. I don't want to die such pathe-759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2ghTEd4DO
"Scarlett."759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5lXRs0afC
I didn't turn around. Didn't have the courage to. Not after he nearly ki-759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmlyTPH2DL
"I'm sorry. I got distracted." He said, humbly, gently, his voice laced with hint of plead. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopj0yMtlr2
"It's...It's okay. We bo..both.. got di..distracted. I am sure you're ti..tired after your long day and I sho..shouldn't have come running here for something trivial as da...dates, you know. You're big enough to handle yourself, hell you even handle much bigger things than these menial girls, dates, women, then I wonder why I bothered to run here for nothing-" I bit my lips hard, after realising I exposed myself. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtA60YCKQOm
I. Exposed. Myself. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgxOpQ4GGR
I'm my biggest traitor. Liar. Cheater. Bitch. Slug. Frog. Python. Donke-759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEbGP048Xr
"But I should've been more careful. I just had a date with your sister and I'm here, doing tha.." He stopped, muttering something incoherent in his breath before I felt him slide towel down my shoulders.759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxcHaCHvwK
Keeping my voice intact, I stared at the wall in front of me, so interestingly, so deeply, as if suddenly it had become the most interesting thing in the world. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoklA6o0lz8
Swallowing the lump in my throat, I curled my fingers in fists as I turned around to face him , keeping my expression as nonchalant as possible. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnIDqxBKBq
But I knew I couldn't do anything for the dark blush adorning my face and neck and I swear I saw the faint tiny of pink on his own cheeks, as he scratched his neck, avoiding my eyes. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWi13fOvoe
"Oh! It's okay, Heath! What do you take me for!? A shy, embarrassing woman? Not habitual of men's touch? I'm twenty-six for my sake!" I raised my voice to any extra inch, straining my larynx. "I'm fine! We're fine. Really! You're a man and I'm a woman, Heath. Things like this can happen between us! It's no surprise! Don't fret over the spread milk-" I stopped speaking as soon as he looked at me in shock.759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHg280bXhV
How could I speak of fucking milk after what just happened!?759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk02ajCbxpV
How could I!?759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMM9tn0AZ2
Yeah, I remember now. I'm retarded. From top of my brain to the bottom of my ass! 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xB2KTxw7b
I'm a creeping retard. Raging retard. Lowly retard. I'd rather just be a reptile! 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJnXdsQsaS
Coughing loudly in discomfort, Heath busied himself in finding something on the study table, still in his formal clothes, his shirt half-undone, his sleeves rolled upwards. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDFcmvOHeP
His collar was halfway open wide, his chiseled chest peeking from beneath his white shirt and I wondered why he chose to wear blue, even when he knew, from my very own reliable imported highly-advanced mouth, that blue wasn't even among Kiara's favourite colors. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWVhewDius
Maybe because he didn't have time to change into anything comfortable and interesting for his date. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5nC0YQbqa
I saw his muscles getting strained and flexed against the white fabric, veins on his throat constricting in line as if he'd been holding something this whole time and I realised he might really be tired after everything he endured in just a single day. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTItteNqFuw
"You should dry-"759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0KSLalOBt
"I think I should go-" We both started at the the same time, only to stop in mid to let the other continue their words. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLLIDPUVDb
I blinked at him to continue his statement.759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADcnxaV9aS
He blinked in return, for me to do the same. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGETDwNawvN
After I made no attempt in contiuing my statement, he deemed it necessary to speak first. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4w283TC8B
"You should dry yourself up properly, Scarlett. You might catch cold if you stay long this way. Besides, I've an important client meeting tomorrow afternoon and you'd also be busy managing guests there..." He trailed off, hoping I'd understand his intentions, without misunderstanding. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCo9mWG3lt
I nodded silently. "Okay. I understand. Good night then, I'll be going now!" I waved at him, approaching the door. I pulled out my wet shoes and pushed my feet into them, keeping a hand on the wall to keep my balance.759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPq1UsDuKHW
"Where're you going?"759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGxQlj6B51
"Home." I replied, not looking at him. "God, these shoes won't fit! Its-"759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHVGJHRNtx
"Stay."759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6nF5DGI13
Not paying much attention to his words, I looked up from my shoes to him, narrowing my eyes in confusion."Huh? What di-"759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UcDrWyYDj
"Stay the night, Hazel. It's late."759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4P9Bo7JTy4
I glanced at my watch. Too late actually. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8difdwkZV
It was past three AM but I didn't mind going to my apartment this late. I was habitual of sleeping late anyway, all credits to his unusual working habits and my duty to stick to his side, as his assistant. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITi7z4Yx2j
But never a single day did he actually ask me to stay the night. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6d0985md6
Though he'd be kind enough to text me to enquire about my safety.759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKq3mWDgQXE
And remembering that aspect of his personality, I was getting too nervous to actually stay the night. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94VsedRf7r
With him. On his apartment. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOJWo7TUJy
"But how can-"759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90Voq8zu9d
"Unless you want me to drop you to your apartment this late at night, then do what I'm saying."759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVODvFuEah
He would drop me to my apartment? Woah! I looked at him in utter astonishment. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHm0mlAkys2
Did he eat the elephant in his dinner?759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuPqthiwyb
Or the lowly-criticized black-moustached bald Victorian Romeo? 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡColFn5A2rb
"It'd hardly take one minute to call a cab, Heath! Their services are getting really good and they take take the passengers with carefully devised navigation without traffics amd minor obstructions!" 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QjIcfcQmn
And to prove my point, I booked a cab from a mobile phone and put the screen in front of his annoyed face. "See, it says here, after 3 minutes, a green cab's gonna be waiting for me and..." After some careful swiping and scrolling of the screen, ignoring his usual mutter of "women-and-their big-stubborn-mouths", I managed to find myself a solution. "See. Here it shows, with the cab, I'm gonna be home in 45 minutes. Just 45 minutes."759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSV4mKWqdc
I looked from phonescreen to see him radiating a dark aura before I went back to opening my gallery and pretending to do something in it. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPUnGk5AEs
I really didn't want to spend the night with him. It was awkward, frustrating, annoying, lonely, exciting, thrilling, sad, lovely, satisfying and agonizingly delicious to stay with him for more than ten hours straight in a single day, as it is. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UfpCwBWgm
I didn't want to strain my heart out further. It was already wounded, bruised and depressed from his-759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsL4MBxINs
"Hey! That's my phone!" Heath grabbed the phone from me and threw it unceremeniously on his couch. 759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CvMFa3PvY
"You're staying the night, that's it. No arguments."759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2vHOZnXUH
"But my cab's-"759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNDW8tHFRP
"Cancel it before it starts barking in front of my apartment."759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1bYC11DEM
"But-"759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfdNcFnc9O
"Don't make me repeat myself, Scarlett."759Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGRjDLJ08K
