USED The wind from the sea bit deep into my skin. “I need to stop feeling. I need to not feel. I need to stop thinking..” I mutter over and over to myself as I rush into the changing room. Hurriedly, I change into my surfing gear and without doing any form of stretches, I paddle into the cool water. Desperate to stop thinking. Being on the water muted all of my thoughts. And I very much needed to stop hearing the last words Cecilia told me before I dashed here. “You played with someone's feelings...” I groan and push off from the board. I push off to a stand and start to surf, but my mind still felt crowded, too crowded. I needed more, I push myself even further. I felt a cramp in my ankle but that would not stop me. I could not let it stop me. Pushing myself even further, I felt myself lose my balance on the board. I right my legs, and continue to go forward. I cross my ankles, in a position I use to right myself when I felt untethered on the board, not how I u
TOMORROW My legs, heart and throat must not be receiving the same command, because my legs are taking me in his direction. And my heart keeps telling me to run the opposite direction. My throat won't work. He has a hopeful look in his eyes by the time I reach him. He definitely did not hear a word of the conversation. He was far away from us anyway. “Peanut..” He whispers when I reach him.I choke back a sob at the nickname. I hated the name before, so why was I being sentimental over it now? I couldn’t wait to be rid of it any way. “Are you okay? You.. were you crying? Did you get hurt? Did something happen?” he takes a step towards me, his eyes roaming my body. “I’m fine.”His brows almost touch. “You don’t look fine to me.. your eyes are red..”“From the salt water. Water got into my eyes. I’m fine. Really.” He swallows and then nods. Most likely swallowing his hurt. My chest tightens from hurting him that way. “You must be getting cold. Let’s get you
DISOBEY His hands around my waist slide up and down my slides, slowly caressing my skin. I remove my mouth from his and focus my attention on taking off his pants. His fingers help me and together, we finally succeed in taking off his pants. My finger tips run on his hardened cock from on top of his silky boxer briefs. He takes a sharp breath as I do. Hastily, I pull the briefs down, and he sprang up, hard and veiny. “Protection.” He murmurs as he pulls out his wallet and picks out a single rubber from inside it. In one fluid motion, he had sheathed himself to the hilt. My tongue darts out and licks my lip, he really is a fine specimen, just watching him was very, very, arousing and I settle myself on top of him. My hands gripping his shoulders tight, my feet firmly planted against the leather seats as my ass hovered in the air above him. We let out identical gasps once he was at my entrance. “Baby..” “Vaughn..”The walls of my insides tightens ag
PUNISHMENT He grits his teeth and reverses out of his driveway. But it is too late, Priscilla must have heard the sound of the car pulling in and turns in the direction of the car. I hold my breath and watch as her confusion clouds her features. Even if she cannot see us in the car, I am still unable to breathe until she is a tiny spec in the distance. “She could not see us.” I murmur to myself and to him.He doesn’t respond for a while and then he speaks. “I’m sorry, she shouldn't be here, I don’t know..”“Don't.. don’t apologise for her. You did nothing wrong.”I look away from him, the rest of my sentence stuck in my throat, the part that said the truth. “Should I head to your place?” Lacking energy, I nod and sink deeper into my seat. Happiness had seeped put of me at this point. I felt drained. Cupping my head in the palm of my hand, I close my eyes. “Are you Okay?”I sigh at the softness of his voice, the kindness in his voice. He was so kind. Suc
PAIN “Wait here.” He orders as he puts the car in the parking lot of a shopping complex. “What do you want to get?”A small quirk of his brow tells me that was the wrong question to ask. “You’ll see.”He climbs out of the car and disappears into the complex, I try to follow him with my eyes but he got lost in the crowd. I sigh and sag into my seat. Instead of dwindling my thumbs as I wait for his return, I dial Joanna's phone number, my father’s secretary. “Hey Joanna..” I pause when I hear shuffling in the background. And then even more shuffling.“Roxanne.. hello..” she answers breathily. “Is this a bad time?”More shuffling, “No, not really. I needed the break anyway.”“Is something going on?”She sighs, “Your father is contesting the will. He says there is nothing wrong with being progressive.” I snort. Like sucking up to his mother in-law was the least bit progressive. “Please. I wish I could say good luck with that. Anyway, I calle
HAND This time I sit in the car, waiting until he opens the passenger door for me. He takes my hand in his and leads me to the entrance of the building. I still can’t make out what the building was from the outside, my heart is racing nervously, running amok in my chest was my heart. “You suggested this.” He says as we climbed the stairs to the house together. Hand in hand. “I suggested coming here?” I blink in confusion, as I take in everything with even more confusion than when I came. “Yes.. yes you did.” He says and knocks once.The door opens and I instantly know where this place was. “A tattoo parlour?” I ask with wide eyes.A totally inked, from head to where his clothes covered at least, man regards us first and then opens the door wider for us. “Mr. Walker?”“Yes, I take it that she is inside?”“I’ll lead the way.” He says completely ignoring my presence as he led us inside. The inside was cozy, with cream rugs and cream sofas, it led to differ
INFINITY “These are.. these are beautiful, thank you so much.” I say, unable to tear my eyes from the tattoos. Saph smiled at me again.“You are welcome. I’m glad I’m the one who got to ink you for your first time.” Like she promised before she started, the process wasn’t painful at all. Even when she randomly asked to do my finger, where my scar was, I obliged without a second thought. “Now, let’s go, before Vaughn pushes through the door and gets you himself.”She points at a blinking red light above the door. I had seen that a while ago, but I didn’t think much of it. “He can’t open the door from outside. Him hovering around like that is what is causing the red lights.” She explains, probably because I look extra confused. She leads me outside and truly, Vaughn stood there shooting an exasperated look at his sister. “I couldn’t help but hog her longer. This is the first time you actually have a hot girlfriend, sue me.” Our eyes meet and i quickly look away
PINCH I am hurrying around when his texts come in; “Meet me in my office.” It said.“I have less than fifteen minutes to get to the hall, can it wait?” I shoot back whilst scurrying out of my car, I contemplate carrying my coffee with me, but it sloshes everywhere, and I end up dumping the whole thing in the trash, and wipe my hands down with a wet wipe. “It can’t wait and it won't take long.”I groan but head to his office anyway. It was his fault I ended up coming in late and I plan on letting him know. “Fourteen minutes.” I announce and enter his office.He is resting on his table, facing the door, hence facing me, he was looking the direct opposite of how I was feeling. “You look amazing, breathtaking, as always.”I pause, it felt good to hear him say that, even if I was in a rush, I wanted to hear him say that again. “I only did spend two hours picking out my outfit and doing my hair, i would be mortified if I didn’t take your breath away.” I say as co
