It didn't help. He took her breath away anyway.
"Shall we go?"
She just nodded. Not finding it in her to talk to him.
They checked out of the hotel and for the first time since the trip, Richard didn't join their car and he seemed to be minding his business.
No more jealous glares, and no more being an asshole.
They rode off in uncomfortable silence. Destiny pretended to be busy on her phone while Wilhelm steals glances at her

"No. How did you know it was her?" He questioned, eyes searching her face.She dropped her gaze as her cheeks flushed."Have you been stalking me Destiny Blackmore.""No!""Then how the fuck did you know who I was with last night?""I came to look for you but then I heard voices." She gulped. "Yours and hers.""Then?""Coincidentally, she had to be the one to spill coffee over me this morning. Her voice rang a bell.."

When she got to the parking lot, she motioned for the valet to throw her the key. She caught it and hopped into the Porsche car.There was only one place in mind and she has been to similar ones already but nothing like being in Paris and not going there.This time is different. There was more to her visit to Pointes des Arts.She parked the car and leaned back in the seat. Her heart thud as the memories of being here at a time basked her mind. She took a deep breath and got out.As usual, the bridge never ran out of tourists and lovesick couples who are unintentionally literally tearing the bridge down with their unfortunate relationships.

Before his lips could touch hers she pushed forward and went for them lightly before stepping back, leaving him awed."What?" He asked in a surprise tone, his eyes all over her face."He's here so? You know the dude doesn't care even if we fuck in front of him anymore.”"Huh?" He whipped his head to the side. "Oh, he's here?"She stared at him through her glasses unbelievably."Don't tell me you didn't know he was here.""Of course, I knew.""Then why…you forget. That's why it's not needed anymore.""Can you be specific? What won't be needed anymore?""I mean the kiss. Well, we weren't supposed to be doing it anyway.""Noted!" He nodded and pushed his hands into his pockets. Destiny gazed at him secretly , thanks to her dark shades.Today, he was wearing skinny blue jeans. It hugged him so tight that Destiny had the urge to step back behind

" I can't tell you!" She screamed back at him."And why is that?"" It's personal.""Personal?""Rather tell me why you're interested.""You don't wanna know." He attempted an American accent which she compared with his French. He’s woefully incapable and that oddly calmed her temper."Yes I want to.”He smiled. "Since it's personal, I either back off or do it my way. It's my decision to make."He looked determined and Destiny knew she couldn't break that."Alright but you can at least tell me where you got that key from.""Not when I'd have to end up looking like the bad guy. A home-wrecker.""I thought you knew what you were getting into when you proposed that we should date.""Yes but this looks as if I am doing it purposely to separate you two.""No!""Pretending to be lovers is to make him regret and feel pain for what he did to

"So, where are you taking me?""Us.""Okay." Her eyes rolled in. "Where are we going?""You'll see.""Alright." She turned to the window and watched everything that he drove past. "You know, I've got a hunch that you're up to no good.""I'm not going to have you slaughtered.""Then?"" It's just something that I don't believe I'm about to do with you." He pulled into a lot."What?" She scanned the area. It looked— No it was a gas station but something about the cars parked in the lot and the people moving inside the Mart made it suspicious."I don't do drugs." She blurted, a tip of panic seeping in."What?" He asked, cackling. "I don't do it either."

As creepy as it's going to seem, she couldn't shake away the urge to confirm if it was him or someone else. It’s two things. It's either she gets relieved or regrets it.As she staggered in the direction of the moans she realized without doubt that it’s the latter; Regret.She stopped in front of the men's washroom where it's loudest and leaned her ears against the door to listen clearly."Wait." She heard a lady say in a breathy tone. "I thought you were here with someone."Destiny’s heart skipped when realization hit her. They know each other."If I could do what I want to do to you now

"Keep it. I don't want to hear it." The last thing he wanted was to have her telling him what she's going to regret when sober.She pouted. "Then you should leave." Then folded her arms across her chest.It cracked him up. The broken glasses that she's still barely aware of were still hanging on her face. It also revealed her brilliant blue eyes which are now dull and lifeless.Her entire face has almost been smudged by her lipstick. Her golden locks only need a hand to comb through to bring it back to perfection.Apart from that, every other thing is in place but if it had not been, she'd still look perfect and remain the most beautiful woman in

Imagine that unfortunate day where you were indisposed, getting caught up, and beaten by rain until your ass is frozen and all you crave is just the tiniest amount of warmth. Then you suddenly reached home and ran to the fireplace.

She feels like a chicken in the warm winks of a mother hen. All she has to do is to snuggle closer and closer for more warmth.Sweet warmth.Not until she heard that familiar cologne mixed with his scent and the gentle touch of his goatee against her forehead or the strong arms she could feel

“Hi.” She squeaked in a mixture of fake excitement and genuine nervousness. “I trust things are going well for you in London.

It's just…”“Just what?” He cuts her off.“Nothing.”“Nothing? Did you realize that you're ghosting me? How would you have felt if I was the one doing that to you?”“It's not me, and I know you don't give a fuck.”“Are you shitting me? How haven't you seen that I care for you?”“Care?

..........The buzzing of her phone woke her up. She blindly searched for it and when she finally got a hold of it, she answered without looking at the ID."I'm still in..." She was mumbling when she got cut off."Hi Des, it's...wait. Were you saying you're still in bed?"Destiny got up to a sitting position and begrudgingly rubbed her eyes. "Ara?""Yes, baby."Destiny rolled her eyes. "You sound cheery.""Of course. Wanna guess it?""You know I just woke up. My brain needs time before it starts functioning.""I'll buy your excuse.""So?""I'm going on a date.""Oh wow. You found someone or it's a man.""I found someone.""That's wonderful Ara.

He started expecting a call or text from him.Slowly, the sun hid back behind its clouds and she was about to retire to bed herself.But could she sleep without talking to him?Her phone was beside her and she kept checking it every second. Every message tone, every incoming call sent her jumping up to reach her phone only to be disappointed.At eleven, she began to force herself to sleep as she was no longer sure he'd call her. Midnight and she was still struggling to sleep.She placed the phone on the bedside table and disappeared under the covers, shutting her eyes tight.It's not been a day since he left yet she miss him, so much.

"Whatever you do, make sure you don't miss Christmas with me." She brushed her thumb over his beautiful lips while staring deep into his blue-green eyes.She feels so weak and helpless."I won't." He kissed her thumb."Come back soon." She whispered, her voice threatening to break."I will."She dropped her thumb, tightened their entwined hands, and leaned into him, resting her head against his arm.Sooner or later, she'd have to say goodbye and she's not ready for that.

The moment the elevator dinged, her heart leaped along with it but she didn't flinch and pretended to be engrossed. The closer his steps got, the more his fragrance filled her nostrils. Her insides tightened in excitement. He closed earlier than usual today. "Mmm...what is it you're reading?" He came around and kissed the corners of her lip. "Why do you wanna know? You never cared." She asked, smiling but never looking up from the book. "I've seen you go from scared to happy, in love and despair. More of despair. You've cried a bucket full already. I can't take it." He pitched in a sorrowful tone.

Destiny invited a waiting Ara to have breakfast with them. A very awkward breakfast.When it was over she asked Ara to her room but she declined."Outside then?""Is there not a seat on the balcony?""There is." Destiny breathed, clutching to the sides of her dress.When they got there, Destiny sat on the wicker chair, expecting her to join her but she didn't.The early morning sun of mid-July warmed Destiny's skin to the point of scorching. July weather in America has always been harsh. She looked down from the blinding sunlight while waiting for Ara to speak.Ara stood against the railings and placed her hand on it while her eyes remained below, taking in the
