Cravings EIGHTY ONE
When I entered, I quickly sighted Patricia in the front seat as she began waving at me, much to the attention of everyone, especially Louisa, who is supposed to be her friend. I looked over at Brianna, who had already kept space for me and was also signaling that I come sit with her.“Scarlett, why don't you come and join me?" Patricia invited much to the mumbles and murmurs of the rest in the room.I was conflicted about which side I chose. Clearly, I would have more eyes staring if I went for Patricia, as everybody would do whatever it takes to just sit next to her, but then there is my close friend Brianna. It wouldn’t look well on me if I were to suddenly ditch her in front of everybody.Nevertheless, I didn’t want to be greedy or act so needy that I would throw off a friend for a good opportunity like that which Patricia was offering, so I went with Brianna, thanking Patricia in the mix.The gasps that filled the air when I rejected Patricia were sending me off because of the gla

“Patricia, I don’t even know what to do; I feel like I am losing my mind." Louisa’s voice sounded shaky as she managed to say, “Brandon is gone, Vice is gone, and I am just left with Rocky, Patricia. I am hanging on a loose thread right now, and it seems like I am losing you too.“Loosing me, how? We are still friends,” Patricia said, though I couldn’t see both their expressions; their voice was enough as I continued eavesdropping.“Are you kidding? Scarlett? You invited her first before you even told me that you were already here; you told me you would be returning at the end of the month, not two weeks before then,” Louisa complained with a hint of jealousy. I am still trying to understand their strife, and now Louisa was switching the topic.“You have nothing to worry about Scarlett; she is a good person, and I clearly just want to know her better. Besides, I have been keeping up with Brandon, so I think it is time you make a police report about him for the money he stole and file

SETH POV“Of course, Mr. Mayor, I will surely let my wife know that you extend your greetings,” Mr. Thatcher said over the phone as he entered the car. He ended the call shortly and placed his bag on his side. “Ah, Seth, I am glad you came on short notice; I hope I wasn't a burden."“Not at all, sir,” I answered, starting off the engine. “Where to, sir?”“Why are you being so modest?” Mr. Thatcher stated with a short smile as he arranged his suit, “I think we should head home, don’t you think?” He replied.“Alright,” I say as I drive out of the parking lot.My ears were close to most of the things he said, until he asked about Bella and how she was doing: “You two break up; is it temporary or permanent? What must have been the reason she left? Bella is a sweet lady, and Carmela truly misses her,” Mr. Thatcher added.This was a topic I have quite been avoiding whenever I am asked, also because though I have tried reaching out to speak with Bella for more understanding, she has refused

SETH POVScarlett curled up in my arm as we slept together through the late hours of the evening. We had sex multiple times and took breaks in between, and still we were never tired of each other. My fingertips strolled her shoulders down to her arm length as I admired and appreciated every bit of her. It was so soon, the way we had gotten together, but I don't regret it, and neither does she.Scarlett twisted her body away as she opened her eyes to me staring at her, my elbow placed under my jaw as I used my other hand to touch her face. "You sleep so beautifully." I kissed her nose and playfully toyed with her hair.She sniffs. "Seth, what time is it?" pulling the blanket to cover up her bare body."Seven," I replied, my face still smiling at her as she froze. "Oh my God, Seth, Michael is going to kill me; why didn't you try waking me up?" She asks as worry spreads across her face, but still, she didn't try wanting to leave.Scarlett pulled me even closer. "I might as well stay for a

I froze at that very moment as I stared at Seth to help figure out a way out of this situation I just found myself in, knowing my daughter wouldn't drop it, as it does feel presumptuous that I would do a thing like this; it is so unlike me."Erm..." I began still being clueless. "I guess I will have to change seats then; I thought you wouldn't like me sitting with you." I lied as I grabbed hold of the handle of the door to pull, and Seth stopped me, holding me back. "What are you doing?" I asked quietly, even though it was useless since my daughter could see things for herself."Where do you think you are going?" He asked like he wasn't in the car with us."Seth, I need to sit in the back with my daughter," I say, trying to take his hands off mine. His grip tightens, and I hold his gaze with pleasure. "Seth...""You promised," Seth said, his entire expression clinging to hopelessness. I knew he was disappointed that I was changing my mind right now, but I feel he should understand. Thi

Everything happened so quickly that I was hazed out of reality until he kissed my bosom, which he had been staring out at for a long time. I couldn't blame him; my breast did come off as tempting, shooting off from my bra, and my dress tightened it to make a perfect, delectable shape.I watched in sweet horror as he relieved me of the tightness of my dress, revealing my breasts to him, which were shielded by a see-through white bra that covered nothing. My nipples suddenly craved his touch.I bit my lips at how anger has quickly changed into pleasure. I wanted him so badly, and the thought of how many questions will be asked or the rumors flying right now as to what I was doing here only added to how insane what he was doing to me was."Seth, we need to talk," I say, trying to stand my ground even though every part of my body was giving up."Talk about what?" He asked, his eyes lifted up to look at me. "Talk about what Scarlett," he whispered in my ears, and I closed my ears at the sof

Seth and I were no longer on talking terms; it was just that I could see him, but he continued to maintain his distance and only did things that his job required of him. It was that serious and hard to ignore, but I tried because maybe this is what we both need—space.I did watch him from my window whenever Michael wasn't around. I was confused as to how I felt for him. Maybe I have ruined his life by wanting to be with him back then, which was what brought us to this point.Thinking back now, we never actually had any real conversation except for the ones we shared on the bed, and it was just about us giving space to our partners, of which he kept his end of the bargain despite giving me troubles at the beginning. I, on the other hand, who thought I could hold back Michael from me, ended up pushing our relationship outwards.Maybe I was the one who caused the rift; maybe I did confuse Seth...My thoughts were interrupted by the arrival of Vanessa, as I quickly jumped and went down to

I shouldn't think about it much; Leo is going through a phase and will get past it if I handle this correctly. I wiped my sweaty hands on my clothes as I went outside and approached Seth. "I need the keys," I requested.He was puzzled, and I feel he wanted to ask me what for but just gave it to me either way. I collected it and quickly sat in the car, turning on the engine. I inhaled and exhaled multiple times, trying not to use my emotions while driving, as it would have plausible damage.Still, I couldn't get it out of my mind that my son was part of that community.I drove over to Louisa's place, which wasn't that much of a drive from the hall; her security didn't do much checking as they allowed me in clearly because they knew who I was. As I stepped out of the car, the anger that I had suppressed a while ago had come to overpower me.I walked into her house, clearly ready for a fight and to challenge her as she deserved. Louisa had no clue what I was here for, and she welcomed me.
