Chapter 12
“No Davis we should not be doing this, we should not be doing this Davis no” he kissed me so passionately as he looked me in the eye and I could see the smirk in his eyes.I wanted it too and although I struggled a little I finally gave in, he kissed my neck and was unhooking my bra…“Charity!!!!” Tiffany Shouted“Wake up Charity, you asked me to wake you up you mentioned something about a big test today” she continued“You usually don’t need people waking you up or did you have something strong to drink at the party?” she asked“was it a dream” I said out loud“huh” Tiffany asked as she looked puzzled“Oh, it’s nothing” I concluded as I looked away to prevent further questions.“What are you talking about?” she asked confused“Nothing, Nothing” I said as I got up“It does not seem like nothing”“I had a bad dream okay, now you better get going before you are late” I said as I tried to end the conversation.“Okay, if you say so, Sam already left earlier, there is cereal for you to take, and pills on the table incase you are having a hangover, byee”“Bye” I replied as I locked the door.What was that? What sorta dream was that anyways, I never have dreams like this so why did I have it today and with Davis Garraway in it, Yuck. There was nothing between Davis and I as far as I was concerned, so why will I have a dream with Davis in it. I wondered as I prepared to go to classes. Charity what’s wrong with you? why will you be having such a dream and about someone we triple hate, you have lost your mojo girl you have, sub con spoke. This is certainly not the reason you came to college, And then Davis! Davis Garraway, like Devil Davis Garraway charity yuck. Sub con kept speaking as I walked into the class.The class started and was going smoothly but then In the middle of the class Derick entered the class.“Sorry sorry I’m late sir” he apologized to the professor“Why are you late Mr. Mclean” he asked“I overslept sir I’m sorry” he replied as the professor asked him to get a seat, and as usual Mr. Mclean walked to my direction.“Hey soda water is this seat taken?” he asked“Yes, you can clearly see my bag is there” I replied as I looked away“Hey Chilo, I am going to have to borrow your seat for a while, yeah.. thanks, Chilo” he said as he walked towards the seat and removed the bag then sat down.“Are you fine soda water?” Derick asked I completely ignored him.“When did you leave last night?” I ignored him again.“I remember you left with a man and I am guessing it was my fault”“Yes, yes it was, you could not stop him from attempting to take advantage of me” I finally replied“Shit, I am so sorry soda water” he apologized“Are you still upset I’m sorry for leaving you I was drunk” Derick tried to apologize.“It’s fine Derick we were both drunk, I am not upset with you” I replied him. *****Okay, okay I know you have been wondering what actually took place after Ron dragged me into the from and was chased out right? Okay so rewind back to the room scene.A familiar voice had come and chased Ron away from the room, when he turned it was Davis Garraway. Wait Davis Garraway actually came to save you?, not now sub con I am in the middle of something. He looked at me for a while.“The bad dude tried to touch me” I said as he continued staring at me. I got up and attempted to leave when I missed my step and Davis tried to stop me from falling when I slammed into him and we both landed on the bed with me on him. We were directly staring into each other’s eyes and I could swear I saw his eyes sparkling.“How is one person allowed to look this beautiful” he spoke as he brought his hand and tucked my hair behind my ear“You are cute when you are drunk” he continued.“Wait who are you?” I asked as I managed to get up from him“You do not know me?” he asked“No, but I can see two horns on your head and a tail wagging behind there, are you the devil” I repliedHe chuckled as he stood up and said “Is that what you think of me? I’m a devil figure to you, wow okay” he said as I started laughing.“What is so funny” he asked“Well I didn’t know the devil gets hurt when he knows people see him as the devil it is actually funny” I said as I kept laughing and he watched me.“Come devil, come grab a seat” I said as I patted the bed, he came towards me and sat down.“Do you know of any Davis, Davis Garraway?” I asked“Yes” he answered“I know he is your son, cos he behaves like you” I said as I continued laughing“No he is worse, he makes me cry every time and he always does every thing to hurt me, I really do not like him” I said as he stared“In fact I triple hate him, shii do not tell him” I whispered“If you are going back to hell, please take him alon..”“Okay that’s the most I can hear let’s go” he immediately cut in as he carried me on his shoulders.“Please devil take him with you, he keeps tormenting me”“Quit your whining or I will drop you” he spoke as I put my hand on my lips. *****We got to the hostel and he removed my heels and dropped me on the bed and covered me with a duvet“Now quit whining and get some rest” he spoke and turned to leave and I grabbed him arm immediately“Please stay devil please stay with me” I said weakly as he sat back on the bed and I put my head on his legs as he patted me.Few minutes later, I opened my eyes and Davis Garraway was standing right in front of me, he had brought me home from the party.“Davis?, Yuck, Davis what are you doing here I don’t like you” I complained as he looked at me.“Yeah, you really do not have to rub it in, I heard you fine before” he said“Why are you here” I asked“I had to carry you home from the party genius” he replied“Yuck” I said“And you think I enjoyed carrying you here, you weigh much more than a bag of beans” he remarked as he left. ******Back to today, the class was over and I was still feeling very tired and my head was aching.I left after the class and I went straight to my room as I was not feeling good. I removed my clothes and went straight to the bathroom. I was done in the bathroom so I went over to apply lotion.“My heart’s a stereoBeats for you so listen closeHear my thoughts and every not” I sang out loud as I applied lotion. My roommates had some engaged and had informed earlier that they will not be home till the next day so I had the room all to myself. After applying lotion, I went to get clothes, I was opening the drawer when I looked at the window and I saw Davis, yep Davis Garraway was at my window, my eye balls increased as I stared in shock. Has he been standing there the whole time? Did he see me get undressed? Various questions popped up in my mind as I looked at him, Davis kept staring then he smirked and climbed inside the room.“Quit asking yourself silly questions Goblin I just got here I saw nothing”He smirked as he climbed to the bed. Wait how did he read our thought sub con asked. I was still naked with only my towel covering me, I had always been shy but somehow at that moment I could look at him so boldly.“You know I should consider having you as a side chick” he said as he laid down well and smirked.“How is it that all these years we’ve been neighbors I haven’t done anything to you I mean with what I am looking at right now you are quite the meal goblin” Davis asked while analyzing my body, he looked at me like I was naked and he could see through the towel.“Maybe it’s because I’m not one of those h**s you bring to your room and disturb my sleep with every single night” I replied while I walked towards the wardrobeI did not intend changing until he left, but I’m guessing that was when the shyness kicked in. I walked straight to the wardrobe and stood there staring at clothes I see all the time, I looked at them like they were a new collection from D&G. I finally pretended to search for an outfit to wear.“Yeah, find a beautiful dress and then you can show me how ladies put on their clothes” Davis said“Pervert” I said underneath my breath as I continued my endless searchThen I heard breathing very close to my ear, I got scared. The Davis spoke “I came to check if you are fine after what happened with the drinking and then the guy who tried dragging you”Well, this is a first, since when did Davis Garraway start caring about me? I asked myself as I walked away from him and towards the door.“You know goblin you are not as ugly as I say” he said as he started coming close, he walked towards me as I staggered like someone who had 15 shots of whiskey I moved back towards the wardrobe he kept coming close.“How can a goblin be this attractive” he said as he continued coming close“Why do make feel what I do not like feeling” he continued coming close as I hit my back on the wardrobe. Then he pulled me close and kissed me lightly, I was shocked and I could not comprehend what was happening everything happened in the speed of light.Chapter 13Then he kissed me. Davis Garraway kissed me; he pulled me closer and ran his hands through my hair.“You have silky hair” he commended as he kissed my neck, his hands made it’s way to my waist as he held it so tight, he pulled in again as he kissed me again, this time his lips and mine were locked as his tongue explored my mouth. He placed his other hand on my laps as he caressed it and slowly went upwards towards the region the towel had covered, I was already in that mood as I could also feel his erection. His hands made it’ s way underneath the towel as he dragged me towards the bed, he left me and was attempting to pull off his clothes when I do not know why but I pushed him off of me.“What are you doing Davis?” I asked with my eyes still closed“You are making me feel things I should not feel” he responded“We shouldn’t be doing this Davis, leave this room” I said as I stood up to walk away, he brought forth his hands to drag me back and caught the towel, the towel f
Chapter 14The party was going well not until Davis and Andera appeared. “Wow, they actually look fire” Jordan spoke as Davis and Andera made their way to our table“Hey what’s popping guys” Davis spoke as he exchanged the normal guy’s pleasantries: handshakes and knuckle chops.“Dude, you look fire” Mark added“For reals man, I mean I’m the birthday girl but you just had to come and steal my shine man” Jordan added as he shook hands with Davis.“I mean what can I do, grand entrances are kind of a Davis thing” he added“And I see you brought company, the both of you together?” Jordan asked as he looked at Andera“Well, we are no..” Davis was about to speak“Yes, yes we are” Andera immediately answered“I knew it”, they looked it” Anna spoke“Uhh, Davis but I always gave you green light” Sweedy said dramatically as everyone laughed“But for reals man she is gorgeous” Jordan added “Well not as gorgeous as your hyperbolic statement suggests” A voice spoke from the background as the fig
Chapter 15“You are welco….” I was about to complete the statement when someone grabbed my arm and dragged me outside.“Let go of me” I said We got outside a few meters away from the house where the party was being conducted when Davis released his grip on my arm. Yep you heard me, the person that dragged me out of the party was the famous devil, Davis Garraway.“What is your problem dude you always act like a psycho and ouch” I said as I gripped my arm in pain.“Why did you dance with him?” he asked.“I really do not think I owe you any explanations” I replied as I turned to leave, he grabbed my arm again“I asked you a question, why did you dance with him?? You let him hold your waist and the both of you were too close” he said“How is that your business Davis? how does it concern you Garraway? when did me dancing with someone become your business Davis Garraway?” I replied as I snapped my arm out of his grip.“Listen do not ever in your life touch me again Mr. hit and run” I conc
Chapter 16The night was not young anymore, it was 1:15, but I still could not fall asleep, I turned and turned on the bed, I got up and paced round the room.“Charity you are not a night crawler, my love get some sleep your pacing is disturbing my sleep” Tiffany spoke“Sorry” I whispered in replyI went back to the bed and I laid back in, I looked at the ceiling and thought of how undecisive my life seemed at that moment, I was turning around to know if I can get some sleep when my phone vibrated. Who could be sending me a text at this time of the night? I thought people are meant to be sleeping now. I agreed to ignore it as I thought it was maybe a reminder I had set for something. I closed my eyes with the hope of falling asleep, then the phone vibrated again.Does it mean someone cannot get some rest, who the fuck is it anyways, sub con spoke, as I reached for it and I saw and I saw a message from an unknown number.“Who is this” I whispered as I opened the message“Hey, soda w
Chapter 17I had goosebumps all over my body as I walked away from him. I got to my bed and I laid on it and the scenes kept flashing through my eyes you have pretty eyes goblin, I like them too. Wait what are you doing? the familiar voice that always stops me from my thoughts came in. I’m doing nothing I replied, are you thinking about Davis? Davis Garraway? Sub con asked. I rolled my eyes at her I’m not. Wow you really are, I thought you hate him, I did, huh I mean I do; I do. You do, and you are thinking of someone that just asked you if you are scared, he will hit run you again like he did before. You are just unbelievable.I just felt shock over what just happened I mean why did he say all those things he did to me, they all sounded sincere as he said all of them and why didn’t he try to retaliate after I gave him a piece of my mind, normal Davis would say something to try spite me as well, but he did not do that not seem a little off to you? Whether off or not still does not c
Chapter 18Davis Garraway and I grew up together, we were always together. Or technically he was always following me around in his ploy to taunt me.“Hey goblin where are you going to”“Goblin your hair is stuck in that door”“Now you goblin will carry my bag for me for 2 weeks”In the space of almost his lifetime that I have known him, he had never offered to see me politely it was always a commanding statement where he makes it look like I am his property and he bought me on discount sales. Everything he had wanted from me he ensured he got it by hook or crook, I mean we can use that night as an example. And then suddenly he stops a black BMW in front of me and requests to see me, he does not tell me or tell me it is fixed and he does not want disappointments, but he requests to see me, well that’s a first. Then he even offers to buy me ice cream just so I will come. And then why is he so upset that I’m going out with Derick, I mean he has a girlfriend, practically she is not his gi
Chapter 19Chillz n more, probably the biggest ice cream parlor in the whole North America, with branches everywhere. With the headquarters in California, yep California, Oakland precisely. Oakland houses the headquarter and the most expensive ice cream parlor in all of North America. That’s why I told you it was an honor to be studying at a school in Oakland.“We are arriving Chillz n more ice cream parlor just few miles left” the car’s GPS tracker spokeYep, he was taking me to Chillz n more, I was surprised and speechless. Like why would someone waste the money, time and effort of taking just anyone to Chillz n more for a supposed apology. And it is not like I am his girlfriend or something, neither am I his friend. Well technically you are, sub con spoke. I am not we are not friends have you forgotten? Well the both of are basically seatmates, you sit together in class and go to cafeteria together and you are technically sitting in his wine red SUV as we speak going with him on an
Chapter 20The outing was well spent, the evening was as beautiful as the sky that had appeared that night. I got to know a little about Derick Mclean, turns out I went for ice cream with a junior lord. Derick ensured that my night was eventful, after getting ice cream and talking, we went for a walk and came across a lake. We stood there and looked at the lake for a while. The moon had settled at the other side of the lake and it’s ray reflected so beautifully on the lake. It was indeed a beautiful sight. We played hide and seek at some point too.“Thank you for offering me ice cream at the library” I spoke“The pleasure is all mine” he responded “No, for reals this is the most fun I have had since I came to college” I added as he smiled“And you might not know but I enjoyed it way more than you did, I saw the most beautiful of smiles today” he said as he walked towards me What is happening champ, Derick is coming close to you. Mehn what should I do? You have 10 seconds to stop him
CHAPTER 33 The sight, the sight that was before me, was wondrous. a white frothy cascade of water falling into a plunge pool, the rocky outcroppings lined up vertically close to the pool, lichen, moss spread out on the horizon, slippery rock to walk on across the fall, lush grasses of pale green adding to the aesthetic, plants and flowers of different sizes, colors and shapes, i could have i sworn i saw one shaped like a butterfly, a light fog by the waterside, sprays on light water touching the rocks, rainbows, ripples and droplets on the grasses by the horizon, trees clinging to cliffs and overhanging the pool, butterflies sucking pollen from the flowers,birds flying in groups above the sky, flies of colors catching flights with the birds, dragonflies speeding past the eyes, fish splashing in the pool, sun baked rocks, soft beds of grass nearby… I can't even describe all, I looked and I was dumbfounded "This...This is bea
Chapter 32Lying on the bed staring at the 7 inch ceiling decorated with a nice work of aesthetics, I could only imagine the grid of suggestions Tiffany would bring to the table to spice up the whole room. I could not speak nor feel the pain that was draining my breath. I did not know how but drops of tears kept rolling from my eyeliner down to my cheeks, I could not bring myself to recognize the direction at which the pain had engulfed me so much that I produced those tears running down. I knew. I knew she was not coming back, I just wanted her to style me once more, for her to tell she puts on me seems to look stunning on me. She was already planning her 21st Birthday party. Tiffany believed so much in birthdays especially those that came with special entourage, but now sadly she could not turn 21 after all. She just died and left everything, absolutely everything.“But why, why” I kept asking myself or possibly the universe, as that night the world looked unfamiliar and through my
Chapter 31“Does it mean Davis has a thing for me now?” I asked myself as I laid on the bed in my room staring at the velvet color mixed with chocolate and milk colored ceiling. Although my relationship with Davis had gotten better, my full emotions had always been locked down with the belief that maybe, just maybe, Davis is playing with my feelings. But then after what he had said to me that evening “I could not bear seeing the both of you together” I have always heard that the only thing that would make a guy display jealousy for a girl is only when he is into her, does it mean Davis is really into me? Well damn girl, he was jealous? Sub con asked. Well yeah, I mean he said it himself so yeah, yeah he was. Woah so Davis, the Davis, Davis Garraway has shown interest towards you, I mean you. The same girl he calls goblin, well that is a really big twist to this story. You really do not need to rub it in that way sub con.Although sub con’s analysis was rather heart breaking she was rig
Chapter 30The afternoon was chill, it was cool and calm, with the cold breeze blowing from every direction, I could feel the wind blowing through my hair and into my ears. I felt peace and everything calm. “So, what will you have?” Derick asked Yep, we were already seated in a restaurant, the Jin&Jin. A British themed restaurant, well after we had our little British America face off and me stating the fact that the English are not one of the people I fancy, Derick decided that there was no other way top make me see the light than to experience it first hand. So here I am seated in the Jin restaurant waiting to be served“Soda water! What will you have?” Derick asked again“Anything American” I said flashing a smile as he chuckled “I see what you are trying to do young lady” he responded “You see what?” I asked“You asked me to place an order and that is what I am doing now” I added“Soda water” he added chuckling “I said place an order from the menu” he continued while I gav
Chapter 29I tried giving her the look of disapproval but my mom being who she is would certainly act like she does not understand the meaning. But hold up champ, what exactly is your problem with Derick coming over to your house for a meal. Well incase you have not realized it all these years but mom hardly invites people to the house for a meal. Well unless she believes it will benefit her in one way or the other. And so? How does that imply to Derick. I mean he is just your department mate who she picked interest in. I see you are not getting the point here sub con, but I would rather not stress it. let us wait for her to make her actions more understandable.Derick looked at her for a while and then he accepted her offer “I will be glad if you do. I will tell Charity to inform you when I have a suitable day within this week.”“Okay Mrs. Goldtown” he replied as he looked at me and winked “I will get going now Soda Water” he concluded as he left. I watched him walk away, well we
Chapter 28Well, I guess life has taken a good turn around for me, I was starting to feel good about myself, I now storm places like I am king. Yeah, storm maker, I do not remember asking for aid while I was talking sub con. You do not need to ask for help I am always available for you whenever you need or do not need me champ. I do not need you to add parts to my narration. Narration? Which narration? The narration where you exaggerate, day dream and then add parts that are not real? Since when do you storm places like a king champ? Lol. Okay I think that enough for now you can now leave. Well harsh, you do not have to chase me away that way champ, I literally come to show you what is true, when you are lost in your own day dream. Well, I do not remember asking you to aid me leave my dream. You can leave now sub con, bye bye. Fine I am going. Well screw that, where was I? oh yeah so, my life took a turn for the better, everything was looking good, I think I had lost that naïve res
Chapter 27“Hey ladies, did anyone order pizza” Davis spoke as he winked at me “Well yes and we got a hot boy as bonus. I should really start ordering pizza” Tiffany responded“So you work there?” Sam asked as she pointed at one of the pizza boxes. Then Davis chuckled and walked towards her “No sammy, no” he replied“Then what Davis”, Tiffany immediately added“Well I know this will sound as a shock to you guys but I paid the pizza delivery guy to hand me his attire and the pizza boxes” he added as we all stared at him in shock. “Woah, unlike Davis” Sam respondedWell love has the power to do anything. I mean he is obviously heads over heels for yours truly. Sub con added as she took a bow. Shiii do not say anything that is technically false. “And yes 20 pizza boxes? Who would eat all of those?” he asked as he sat down“Sam of course” Tiffany added “So, the both of you do not eat junk” Davis asked as he looked at ne“Well for me it is a maybe I am watching my weight. I added weig
Chapter 26That night was much more beautiful, than the other nights we spent together. By morning I woke up and I could not find anyone in the bed. Did he leave? He must have left. If he left then he is a jerk. I was still speaking to myself, when someone climbed in through the window.“I left to go get you hangover drugs, you were pretty drunk last night” Davis spokeI stared at him speaking and after he was done speaking. I did not know the words to use I was anxious inside and yes I could say now that I have fallen for Davis Garraway. “Did you hear me” he spoke again as that broke me from my trance. “What yes” I replied He came up to me and sat on the bed “How are you feeling” he asked as I looked at him. It was not something Davis would do taking care of someone, being nice to someone. Not just anyone but me, goblin. Oh that was not supposed to be included but anyways I saw a different side of him and that side had made me forget about the hate I had brewed in my heart for
Chapter 25The party continued but we had stopped playing the game prior to what Derick had said. We drank and drank; okay I drank and drank till the alcohol was in control. Shortly after I went to the dance floor and I danced. Just then shape of you by Ed Sheeran started playing.“This is Charity’s favorite song” Sam spoke On hearing this Derick stood up immediately and went to the dance floor and Davis followed him.“May I have this dance my lady” Derick spoke as he stretched out his hands. I was about to take it when Davis intervened “No, you may not, the dance is taken” Davis replied“I do not remember asking you Garraway” Derick added“And I just informed you Mclean” Davis responded as he grabbed my waist“I do not think it is polite to grab a lady’s waist whenever you feel like it” Derick spoke“Well Mclean, if that lady is your I think that that polite gesture is not quite needed” Davis responded Immediately Derick grabbed my hand and pulled me towards him “I got here first
