Molly’s pov “Mother, If you keep getting on my nerves, I won’t be showing up.” I echoed out as calmly as I could through the entire pounding of my head.A clear silence followed right after that and I was certain that if a pin should fall on the other side of the phone, I’d be able to hear it through my own phone.The silence stretched on for over a minute before the sound of the call being disconnected trickled through my ear. I let out a scoff filled with disbelief as I flung my phone unto the bed.Dramatic much?She had called me first thing this morning ranting and raving over the wedding which is currently the bane of my existence and that was wild because the wedding isn’t even here yet.I let out a sigh as I let myself fall into the bed before blinking up at the roof.The past week had been extremely heatic and exhausting, and every little thing had only managed to drain out the little energy I had.The fight with Lola is one which I’m yet to fully wrap my head around, t
Molly’s pov “What do you think about accompanying Justin and I to a wedding?”I had contemplated on inviting him for days and after tabling it to Justin, he suggested I go ahead and suggest it to Blaze, claiming it would definitely be more fun for the both of us if Blaze comes along.And since we’re all currently sleeping together, it didn’t seem like a bad idea.Blaze cocked his eyebrow and his gaze darted towards Justin. We’re currently seated around a table in a Chinese restaurant having dinner together.“A wedding?” He echoed and I hummed in response.“Yeah, a wedding. My sister’s actually.” I explained. “It’s happening in a few days, so… will you be available?”Blaze only took a moment to think about it before responding. “Hm, since it’s family, I’m assuming we’d be spending how long there?”“Just two nights tops. We’d arrive there a day before the wedding and we’d leave the morning after the wedding.” I explained and Blaze snorted.“Wanna be away from them as fast as p
Molly’s pov My mother was on me as soon as I alighted the car.“Oh my girl Molly, I’ve missed you so much!” She cried out as she tugged me into a hug. Despite my promise to myself to stay away from any physical contact from my mother and sister, I found myself returning the hug with a small eyeroll.Once she pulled away, she regarded me closely, eyes squinted in concentration and I found myself squirming under her sharp gaze. If someone sees us right now, we’d almost pass on as siblings because of how identical we both are.After a few seconds, I watched as her mouth twisted in displeasure.“You’ve been losing weight, Molly.” She stated and I found myself tensing up at once, and a scowl settled on my face as I pulled away from her grip.“That’s none of your business.” I pointed out and she pursed her lips and folded her hands.“Of course it is, I’m your mother!”A sigh eased out of me and I massaged my head with my fingers, it’s been minutes and I already felt like turning ar
Mia’s pov A set of normal siblings would have rushed forward to engulfs each other in hugs, considering how it’s been long since we last saw each other.But, that wasn’t the case at all.Mia had a blank look on her face as she regarded me with the same look she has always used on me since we were kids, one which had always irked me.I squared my chin as she made to speak.“Hello, Molly. You look well.” She stated and i inwardly rolled my eyes as I made to respond.“You look well too.” I responded with a bright, faux smile. She was standing beside someone, a man who looked like he was in his late thirties, who’s currently eying me up curiously.“You were able to make it.” She pointed out and I couldn’t help myself from scoffing even if I tried.“You don’t sound too excited about that.” I pointed out and she let out an airy laugh.“Okay now you’re just putting words in my mouth, like you always do.” She accused and I rolled my eyes.“Please be serious for once, Mia. I literally sa
Molly’s pov Dinner was awkward as hell, like I expected it to be if I’m being honest.It started off from my mother having a problem with the outfit I picked out for the dinner.“We both know you’re better than this, why do you wanna look so… basic?” She had demanded with her nose twisting in displeasure and that had rubbed me off the wrong way at once.From the onset, I never planned on putting in much effort into this entire thing, because I never wanted to be here from the get go. But, clearly my mother wanted me to look my best because she was obsessed with gloating.“What’s it to you? It’s just a freaking dinner, isn’t it?” I had shot back and she had let out a long sigh.“Well, technically, yes, but there are so many people who’d be present who haven’t seen you in a long while and I want you to look your best when they see you.”I had narrowed my eyes at her at once. “Just how many people are gonna be present at the dinner tonight?”“Does it matter?” She had shot back.“
Molly’s pov “Why does it have to be Blaze? Can’t someone else do it?” I demanded with slightly concealed anger.My mother had been the one to approach me minutes ago when everyone had been getting ready. She had asked if it was okay that Blaze stepped in for the bridesmaid whose date still wasn’t here.I had hoped that it wouldn’t have to get to this today, but clearly the universe had something else in mind.“It’s not a big deal, is it? I don’t think Blaze would mind.” My mother continued and I pursed my lips.“You can’t know that, he might not wanna do it but wouldn’t know how to refuse you.” I explained and she grinned.“Which works for me!”I made to respond but she was turning around and walking away from me in the next moment, leaving me to scowl angrily at the closed door.Everyone had woken up early this morning and the entire hoise has been buzzing with excitement since the crack of dawn. It should have been awkward to me when it comes to facing some of the people who
Molly’s pov “Can I ask you something?” I ask Justin as we slowly waltzed around. His hands were loosely around my waist and mine were around his shoulders. The lights in the hall was quite dim in order to give off a romantic vibe, which I’d have appreciated all the way if my mind hasn’t been getting constantly soured by the thought of Nala hooking up with Blaze tonight.If I remember correctly, we only agreed to continue to hook up, we didn’t say anything about being exclusive, so it’s nothing but dumb of me to be feeling this way right now. But once again, I just couldn’t help it. It was why I had constantly contemplated on asking Justin or not since the moment I parted ways with Nala sometime ago.“Of course, you know you can.” Justin responded easily, eying me closely as if trying to read my mind through the expression on my face.I licked my bottom lip and hesitated for a few moments before letting out a long breath.“I was wondering… if you’d feel jealous if Blaze hooked u
Molly’s pov Blaze head tilted sideways, eyes dancing with amusement as he took me in, hand still outstretched between us.“I can’t?” He asked and I scoffed before folding my hands over my chest.“Yeah, you can’t.”I couldn’t even keep the bitterness from my voice even if I tried, seeing as it had been eating at my insides since the moment they both emerged together like a picture perfect couple.“Did something happen?” Blaze asked as he finally dropped his hand and I shook my head in response, scowl still plastered over my face.“Something clearly happened, tell me what it is.” He pressed and I pursed my lips while letting my eyes wander around. Justin was still on the dance floor with my mum and he seemed to be engaging my mum in a conversation she loved because she was grinning pleasantly at him.“Nothing happened.” I finally responded while using my eyes to search for a waiter with drinks and finding none after about a minute.“You’re clearly lying.” Blaze noted and I pur
Justin’s pov “Do you think they’re gonna accept me?” Blaze asked, biting on his bottom lip.We were currently heading towards my parents house. Molly was seated at Blaze’s left side, tapping away on her phone. She’s currently talking with Lola and Whitney, they had recently worked their little fight out, but I had a feeling Molly wouldn’t be close with Lola like she was once.“Of course they would. Why would you think that?” I asked with my eyes pinned on him. He shrugged after a few seconds as a sigh escaped his lips“Y’know, because well, I’m the one who came into y’all midst. I might be preserved as a bad person or a homewrecker.” He admitted. He was trying to downplay it, but I could see right through his act. This has clearly been eating at his mind.“Blaze, you’re not a home wrecker, neither did you come into our midst. If you still remember, we were the one who brought up this idea to you, so you didn’t wreck anything.” I explained.“Oh, I know this, I never doubt wha
Blaze’s pov For the first time, I organized a date for Molly and Justin. I hadn’t realized just how much I’ve been wanting to do this, and that’s because I never let myself dwell on that thought for long whenever it comes in.The date was as perfect as I had pictured it in my head. Molly was dressed in a short dress that drove my crazy since the first glance I had of it, while Justin dressed in an outfit I believed was mainly to torture me. He looked so freaking good in it, the leather pants hugged him so freaking well, making him look so fuckable.We all enjoyed the date from start to finish and I drove them over to my house after the date because they’ve not been to my house yet.“Wow, this place looks so good. I like how cozy it feels.” Molly gushed as she walked deeper into the house. Justin was looking through my album collections.“Wow, so many classics, can’t wait to listen to them all so i can be acquainted with your taste.” He mused as he flashed me a smile, and I f
Blaze’s pov There are a bunch of things which brings me immense happiness. That includes a handful of random things like the smell of rain in the air after the completion of a job, or whenever a bird trusts me enough to fly super close to me. That also includes whenever I could watch as Justin’s eyes could light up with so many emotions at once whenever he glances at me. It also includes the look on Molly face whenever she burrows into my side, those are a few things out of the long list of things that brings me happiness.And… right now as what Molly and Blaze had just said was replaying in my mind all over again, that immense feeling of happiness blossomed in my chest and grew even bigger till it felt like my heart was gonna burst out from my chest.I wasn’t sure of when it actually happened. When it was that I realized that I actually liked the two of them more than I was supposed to. I wasn’t sure of when I actually began to want more from the two of them aside being a te
Justin’s pov It was raining when Blaze finally returned that night.If I previously hadn’t been a hundred percent sure that I wanted Blaze in my life as much as I wanted Molly, then the relieved and happy feeling that instantly blossomed in my chest as I pulled the door open and tugged him into the house had told me everything that I needed to know.My heart was thumbing erratically. Like it dose whenever I was missing Molly and couldn’t wait for her to be back to me.Blaze was soaked, and it didn’t look like it was because of the little sprint he had to take from the car to the door.Molly appeared moments later before i could get a word out, her excitement morphing into concern as soon as she noticed Blaze’s drenched state.“Why are you this soaked?” I asked him as watched him shrug out of his dark jacket. His hair was matted to his hair due to the rain but that didn’t prevent him from not looking very handsome right now.“Had to take care of something real quick. I’d have
Justin’s pov “Can you please grab me a beer, Blaze?” I called out with my eyes glued to the screen in front of me. I was engrossed with the topic I’ve been working on for over thirty minutes now, this is a part of what should have been done back at the office instead of me bringing it home with me, but I had been too busy at the office.After a few minutes, I glanced up because I was yet to get a beer yet. I sighted Molly inching into the bedroom with a pillow clutched in her hand.“You seen Blaze?” I asked as I stared at her. She gave a small shake as she walked towards me.“He isn’t around right now, he went to take care of something, remember?” She murmured as she sank into the spot beside me. I let out a small laugh as I stared straight ahead.“I had forgotten.” I finally breathed out in response as one of my hands settled behind my neck to massage the sore spots there.I had gotten so used to having Blaze around the house so much that I had somehow already accepted h
Molly’s pov Whitney looked as pretty as ever, long hair framing her face prettily and a beautiful smile to top it off. She was hanging off the swing beside mine, but unlike me who was barely kicking my feet on it, she was swimming high into the air with her head thrown back and a smile splited over her face.Seems like life was good for her, like there was nothing wrong so ever in it. Lucky her, to be honest. A lot of things sat heavily that I didn’t even know where to start processing them from.It’s been about a week since we returned from my sisters wedding and things have been going so freaking good between Justin, Blaze and I. It had been going almost too good, almost. Most times, I find myself not wanting to acknowledge the fact that Blaze was nothing but a temporary addition to our lives for the time being. I refused to think about it most of the time because I didn’t like it made my throat and stomach feel closed off.The sound of Whitney calling my name when me thro
Molly’s pov When Blaze closed the tiny distance between us and licked into my mouth, a tremor wracked through my body almost immediately. A mewl bubbled in my throat at once.His tongue was hot and wet as it curled around my tongue before flicking against the roof of my mouth and over my tongue once again, and then he was slowly thrusting his tongue in and out. My head felt heavy and I could barely remember to breathe. Justin’s grip around my throat didn’t help matters for me, it only managed to make the air completely ease out of my brain in a thrill that sent a long wave of pleasure inching through every inch of my body.I let out a tiny mewl as I trembled, a sound which got swallowed by Blaze who coarsed my tongue out and proceeded to suck on it, causing me to whimper in wanton desire as I gripped his arm tight, because my life depended on it right now. My second hand was around Justin’s wrist and when Blaze finally broke the kiss, I was still catching my breath when Jus
Molly’s pov The smile on my face was blinding as I waved my mother goodbye. She didn’t look pleased by it but chose against commenting on it, which was certainly for the better.She pulled Justin into a hug and held his hand once they broke of the hug. “Please, never stop taking care of my daughter.” She murmured and I averted my gaze at once, ignoring the weird feeling that settled in my chest in that moment. I heard Justin chuckle before he responded.“Of course, mum. I always do and I’ll continue to do so.” He responded and I heard sounds of kisses being exchanged.When I glanced back at my mother, she had a hand pointed in my direction.“I expect to plan your wedding next sooner than later, so be sure to not let this fine man slip through your fingers!” She spoke and my mouth fell open in horror right before Justin and exchanged a glance.A normal person would have felt offended by this, but not Justin who already knows how my mother works. He only breathed out a chuckle an
Molly’s pov It felt like I was frozen at that moment. It was only a couple of seconds but it felt like a long time. I watched as her gaze farted between Blaze and I over and over again, and that was what manage to pull me out of my shock.Her mouth was still hanging open before I abruptly slammed shut. She glanced between the two of us once again before lifting the glass of wine and letting out a small chuckle which sounded hella awkward.Color filled my cheeks when our eyes locked. I wanted to say something but words completely deserted me, and it didn’t help that I couldn’t bring myself to get out the position I’ve been in before we got busted.“Uh, I’m sorry for…” She trailed off and waved a hand between us. “… interrupting. I guess I’m gonna go back—”“It’s not what you think, Nala.” I finally spoke up, voice low. Nala shook her head and let out a low sigh before turning around and walking down the hallway.My heart was thumping against my ribs and panic swelled in my h
