As I looked at him standing there, right in front of me, a very slight sense of Deja vu channeled through me but a lopsided smile stretched my lips so I could cover it. Everything with Nathan felt like a mistake in the beginning but I never learned. I never understood how it all could come crashing down in a minute. A word, a sentence, a touch, one single thing could change everything between us for the future as well. Who knew if he was going to wake up and want to date me or I was going to regret this the next morning?
All that mattered was that I was here in this moment, with him, despite the consequences of it.
With one last kiss, he stepped away from the wall with me in his arms and turned to his bedroom not even bothering about anything else. I smile as I stare at his clashed brows, lips trying to chase mine but I kept backing awa
MAKE SURE YOU LEAVE COMMENTS AND REVIEWS IF U LIKE MY WORK! :D
"Go to sleep Sophie, I think I've had enough kisses for today," he chuckled as he turned onto his side slowly pulling out. I was beyond just exhausted to complain even though I whined loudly. He threw the condom into the dustbin next to the nightstand and pulled out a box of tissues."I c-can do it," I protested loudly out of shyness as soon as he had parted my legs again extending the tissue towards my core stopping only when I had held his wrist."Let me do it, you already did all the work," I mumbled tossing him a lazy smile and making a short run to the bathroom. He shrugged when I closed the door behind me and I bit my lip standing in front of the mirror tracing my fingers over the hickeys on my collarbones. It was a blessing that they won't be visible through my usual shirts.
"Soph, he has the championship rounds fight day after tomorrow. I don't think he cares if he comes out as an asshole right now," he reasoned and I sighed softly resting my forehead against the closet. There was no arguing to that, I too had a lot of work with him for the next two weeks, there was no way we could let what happened last night get in the middle of work now that this was the peak of his career and he was already suffering."Right," I whispered to myself getting into the shower. When I was out of the shower and had dressed up in my usual clothes, I walked out of my bedroom to find Josh with a dustcloth in one hand and the other one on his waist as he puffed out his cheeks looking down at the furniture."Sophie! The fuck is this? How can you stay in a place that hasn't been cleaned since forever," he scolded and I cringed out
"Hm? Don't act like you weren't doing the same," he jokingly narrowed his eyes at me, resting his hands on both sides of me. I laughed throwing my head back, freely."I wasn't! I was just playing along," I defended raising my hands in the air and he gave me a distasteful expression. I snorted waving a hand in front of him dismissively."Sir?", I questioned when he didn't stop staring and he hummed still with his eyes fixated on mine, leaning forward and resting the side of his face on my lap."Bu-"I closed my eyes softly and turned my head to glare at Josh who was standing at the entrance with both our bags in hand and a guilty expression on his face since he was the one who let out the squeak. Mr. Kim, the head in my lap, had turned red, too embarrassed to look at the person standing at the door so he quickly jumped away from me rubbing his neck."What Jo?", I snapped, nudging for him to continue and he snapped out of his trance quickly dropping
"Sophie no, I can see this is not what you want. Don't force yourself to do something you'll regret. It's okay, you'll find much better guys, I don't deserve-" I had placed my lips against his, clutching the fabric of his top in my hand so tight, my knuckles turned white. He growled into the kiss when my tongue touched his, grabbing the flesh of my ass in both his hands harshly."D-Daddy," I whimpered out loud tightening my grip on his hair. He hissed before his right hand lifted and a loud smack was heard in the car, my body jolting forward causing my core to brush against his bulge so deliciously I had to hold in the embarrassingly loud noise I was about to make. He smirked slightly holding my jaw in one hand dominantly."D-don't stop," I whined guiding his hands back to my ass when he wasn't fondling it anymore.I was making a mistake and I knew that but I couldn't pull away. It was impossible."Oh?" he questioned surprised spanking me again. He was be
"M-Mr. Kim," I heaved softly, placing my elbows and chin up on the ring surface so he could see me. Mr. Kim's head turned slightly towards me in a sideways glance while he tried to regularize his breathing. The truth is, he hasn't spoken a word to me since morning but I didn't expect him to keep it up in such a situation.My eyes watered and I quickly jumped on the outer surface behind him, turning his head to wipe the blood below his nose with my sleeve. he tried jerking his head away but I held his jaw in place not letting him turn his head away."I don't care if you're not talking to me, just listen. You're gonna do amazing now, it doesn't matter if you lost the first round. You're gonna win the fucking match. You know why? Because you're the most amazing boxer on the planet." He gulped nodding very slightly. Mr. Kim's eyes were dark, hooded and mostly very suggestive of how much he was hurting.It made me conflict between telling him to win or to relax
"Shh, c'mere," Josh clicked his tongue pulling my hands into his from behind me. His warm hands calmed me down for a minute or two before my eyes found Mr. Kim again, his gaze dark and hooded as he concentrated on attacking Mr. Choi. He bounced a little on his feet, my hand shaking as I used it to ghost over my lips only slightly.Nathan's fist came flying against the side of Ji-Hoon's jaw and loud gasps commemorated through the crowd, causing the surface under my feet to vibrate with their rumbles and roars of cheer. Both of them being star champions in their game ever since their debuted even though Mr. Choi debuted a few months before Mr. Kim.Mr. Choi and Mr. Kim were both friends and competition to each other for quite some years, but they had promised to keep their friendship outside competitions.I still remembered when I got to know how they had first met through their Coach, Sir Robert who unfortunately passed away a few years ago. Probably
"Y-Yeah sure," he smiled before sighing nervously and shifted in his seat to face me. Josh stared at me before grasping my hand in his and all I could think of was how I didn't want this to go where I think this was going."I was thinking maybe we could go out tomorrow? You know, catch a movie, dinner?", My cheeks burn intensely under his soft admiring gaze, how could I say no to that? I knew it was just a friendly date and his nervousness was obviously unreasonable. "It's been a while you know since we've hung out, just you and me."I grinned and ruffled his hair causing his nose to scrunch up in distaste but before I could open my mouth to answer and plan further, my worst and best nightmare appeared at the entrance of the car and I sighed."She's not going anywhere, I have another fight day after tomorrow." &
"Sophie would be here in a few minutes, I suggest we wait in the living room till she comes back," I heard Josh's soft voice and then footsteps fading into the distance while I stayed with my back pressed against the door as I struggled to get my clothes off. With multiple huffs and puffs, I managed to push my legs into the fuzzy shorts and the matching top I had bought just for sleeping since it's so comfortable.I unlocked my door and walked into the hall plus living room of my apartment to find both of them on opposite sides of the kitchen counter; Josh preparing lasagna while Mr. Kim watched him do it. I walked past his back to join Josh in the kitchen who immediately warmed a smile at me. It all felt so homely to have the two of them here right then but it didn't feel foreign like it was supposed to. Was I perhaps going crazy as I imagined domestic Nathan, him, and me, just living l
I watch Sophie fix her hair in the mirror for the millionth time and feel myself smile even through the nervousness that pumped in my blood both because of how beautiful she looked and also because of what was about to happen.It wasn't the first time but I couldn't bring myself to not worry about going up to the stage and speak in front of at least hundred people that were invited to the summit I had willingly asked to be a part of. She sighs and stomps her feet before draping herself over the royal blue couch next to my similarly designed seat. "Just leave it alone, you look perfect just like that."She picks her head back up from where it was lolling at the back of the couch and scowls directly at me. "Easy for you to say, you just have to comb yours once and you're good to be. God! I'm so jealous of men sometimes," Sophie complains even though I knew she didn't mean it."Well, sweetheart, I think you're forgetting that women too can get the
"You guys are really all going to sleep here?", my mouth was wide agape in bewilderment of my friends' weird request as they all nodded, not bothering to look away from the screen. "Well then, two of you can take the room upstairs, I'll sleep down here," I shrug and settle down on the round chair in front of Mrs. Kim and Kate."No, you sleep in your room and we take the living room," Mr. Min states in a no-nonsense tone, completely ridding me of any excuses. "It's your birthday, go have some 'me' time or whatever.""First of all, it's Nathan's room and my birthday is tomorrow," I dead-pan, picking at the hem of Nathan's shirt to busy myself and keep my thoughts away. "I'll have a whole lot of me time tomorrow, don't worry.""But what's the difference? What's his is yours and what's yours is his," Kate shrugged, nonchalantly throwing me a smile as she leaned back in her seat on the couch."Oh he's definitely not worrying and your bi
"Good morning Sophie," Kate hums softly from the other side of the room and I hum back, not having enough energy and still half asleep to reply to her greeting. "I'll be on the lawn if you need me.""Okay," I mumble, finally, and then her footsteps faded into the distance. Once again, the room felt too quiet and solemn without Nathan's warm presence in it. Gathering all my energy, I get up and stop in a sitting position on the bed, smiling softly at the drawn curtains.Who would've known, Nathan's habit of keeping the curtains drawn originated from Kate? I yawn and stretch my arms up to feel the satisfying pop of my muscles after a tiring night with all the guys and then having to drive back, completely exhausted. My head thrummed with a slight headache and I wondered if it was some sort of handover.Nah, maybe just lack of sleep.I find myself slipping down the bed and towards the bathroom in haste to brush the weird morning breat
My fingers tightened around the warm cup of coffee, it's temperature already helping with the shriveling cold outside even through my knitted gloves. They were a gift from Kate, she had been into knitting a few weeks back and made a cute couple on the back of them.The coffee shop was newly opened next to the Yongsan Seoul Hospital. I often came around to grab a cup of coffee for myself when I was particularly lonely or stressed out. The doorbell that chimed whenever somebody entered the shop made it's signature sound again and I ignored it, picking up a packet of brown sugar to rip it open and added it to my coffee."Didn't you already put two?", Hearing Mr. Min's voice, I jump up in surprise before a smile causes my cheeks to hurt. He smiles back at me, pointing his finger between the two already empty packets of sugar lying on the table. "You shouldn't put in so much, it's like aiming for diabetes.""I don't do that always," I lie, rolling m
"Is that-" he tremors."Yes," I assure."Are they-" he begins again."Yup," I confirm, last letter popping.Seok-Min was star-struck. He couldn't take his eyes off the three men huddled on the couch together for a whole minute. It wasn't like this was the first time Nathan had bumped into a fan or have somebody struck like that but there was a certain rawness to Seok-Min that made him shy.Maybe it was the fact that the past few days had been so rough on him that he didn't expect anybody to care about him anymore. He probably didn't expect the news announcer to be that whipped for him but it wasn't news to the rest of us. The man had literally defended Nathan on national television and risked his job trying to protect his name."Hey," Nathan chirps out, quietly and shyly rubbing the back of his head. I watch as Seok-Min smiles happily and I gesture for him to sit down once he had returned all their greetings."
It's five in the morning, my head rests back against Nathan's chest, we both have been talking for the whole night now, three hours washed away in love and unresolved matters. His back is against the headboard of my bed and the window is open ajar to let the chilly wind it.It seems like it might rain in the next few hours and I want nothing than to just lie down for one more day, waste a few more hours talking to him before we need to get up and face reality. Reality that there were lot of untangled ropes in our lives that were swirled around."Hey, Nat?", he hums, tightening his arm around my front. "Can I take up a nursing job or something? You know, I'll have to get my license and work," I trail off, feeling smaller with every silent second that passed by."What made you think you needed permission for that?", he asks, voice sharp and seemingly offended. "Do you think I have autonomy over your life? I can't believe you sometimes Soph."
Nathan's head was soundly placed in Kate's lap. She was sitting on the couch across me and it was pitch dark when I gazed out of my window. All four of us were unaware when time had ticked by so as soon as Nathan's eyes drooped shut in exhaustion of how big a day this had been, Jo went to bed too."So, how did you two meet?", Kate questions, drawing my blue cardigan closer around her shoulders with a soft sigh. "You know, you and Nat are two very different people. How did it- how did this happen?", she emphasizes on the word 'this' and I could only laugh softly in response."I have no idea either," I perk up, bouncing my feet against the carpeted floor of my living room. "Should I start from the beginning or?", Kate sits up a little more comfortably as I quirk my brow at her curiosity but it was understandable. She hadn't met her little boy in what must be two decades."From the start, tell me everything," she smiles and I couldn't help but ret
A week later me and Nathan sat on the freshly white painted benches of the park nearest to his mansion with his arms draped over the back of it in exhaustion after our run. I smile at the look of sheer bliss on his face and the glow that emitted due to his constant lifted moods.Mrs. Lee had explained Nathan's disorder to him and he had taken almost a day off to accept it but he later mentioned that a lot of things were starting to make sense for him and that he felt better knowing the cause behind it instead of being confused all the time.Kate was yet to meet him, especially after Mrs. Lee's clear instructions that he must be told before the two met and now that he knew, I guessed what would be the right time for them to meet?"Quit staring," he laughs, chest heaving up and down and I feel the vibrations rake down my own body. Shaking my head playfully, I reach over to my opposite side and throw him a baby blue towel so he could wipe his swea
"Don't you think this will be too shocking for him right now?", Mr. Min suggests, chewing on his lower lip with a concerned expression as he pulls his car into my apartment complex's parking lot."Yeah but she's staying with me and I'll make sure that the two of us don't end up coming back here later or atleast for a few days till Mrs. lee figures out the whole deal," I sigh and Kate's ears perk up at the suggestion as she shuffles closer to me from the back seat. "Hey, Kate, do you- would you mind me staying over at Nathan's since you know, we basically stay over at each other's all the time?""Of course not, why would I have a problem with that? You both are grown-ups," she chuckles. "I'm just excited to see him again, hear his voice again without the television screen."I smile back at the woman and nod softly. It was heartwarming to see how much she loved him and how accepting she was, of the two of us. What made me even happier was to know
