His Dirty Little Secret Chapter 12: Shooting.
SUMMER."Summer!" I briskly wiped across my tear filled eyes as I turned around. Picking up my pace, I really wished that he hadn't seen me which was albeit impossible given we had locked eyes. I didn't even know what the plan was but in the moment it was rather difficult to not feel embarrassed."Summer!" He called and I could hear his footsteps thudding from behind. I really wished for the grounds to open up now. "Im calling you, Summer!" When he was close enough, Vincent held firmly to my hands.He forced me to come to a halt before dragging me back and both of us were breathless, especially me as I tried to hold back the tears in my eyes. "What...what are you doing here?" He stuttered.I detached my arms from his as I scoffed. "What do you care?!" There was a crack in my voice. "Summer—" "I mean you're out here having your fun with only God knows whoever that is when Ive been back home worried sick about you and why you weren't responding to my messages""Then you go about postin

SUMMER."You're...you're bleeding" I whispered and the winds carried my voice. I halted by the edge of hilly rocks for a second, dashing his palms across his forehead and wiping off a smudge of blood. "Look, you can tell me what happened..." I urged, moving closer to where he was but Vincent shot me a glare cold as ice."You haven't still said what you're doing here. Look out here, it can be dangerous in Oregon. You have to be careful" It seemed as though that was Vincent's greatest worry so I thought it best never to tell him that I had hopped into a stranger's car down here.Thinking about it and the risks slightly stomped my heart.I exhaled, cowering my face to the earth. "I didn't have anywhere else to go" There was a crack in my voice and a hysterical chuckle from Vincent."What?" He asked.And then our eyes met, it was like he could already tell there was some argument, it wasn't exactly rocket science because it's all we've done since arriving here. It was supposed to be a bli
His Dirty Little Secret Chapter 14: Shower.
SUMMER.My hands reached towards the door before I slowly pushed it open and the steam from the running shower was what hit me in my face. I halted for a second, meeting Vincent’s inquisitive eyes above which were brows that soared into his forehead.He was fully unclothed and it took everything in me to not let my eyes wander, at least not yet, not now. But he was relentless in his gaze as well as intent. He ran his hands through his hair beneath the shower and if I wasn’t completely wrong, there was the ghost of a smirk on his lips.I stepped into the shower, his bathroom was more like a sauna’s with about two tap heads on opposite corners of the room. While I stayed on one side, I nervously stepped beneath the other. As the warm water trickled down my face as well as the sides of my neck, I heaved a sigh.A pleasurable one. I could feel Vincent’s intense gaze bore into my back even before I threw a coy look over my shoulders. When our eyes met, he tried to look away before batting

SUMMER."Come here, Summer."My heart lumped in the back of my throat as I inched closer to Vincent. When I was close enough, a smirk curled his lips upwards and I was overcome with shyness. I felt the blood rush into my cheeks when his hands grazed softly against them. He'd changed in a black t-shirt and a pair of jeans. Honestly, he was the only one I thought could still rock jeans in this day and age. Vincent wasn't exactly flashy, in fact the way he dressed and the way he talked was a constant reminder that he was still decades older than me.But you see, that smile. When he smiled and my knees would grow weak, it would just feel like we're the only ones in the entire world. That he's only just staring at me. It makes me forget about everything, like a charm he knew was working. His fingers crept up my face before smothering through my hair and I cowered my head against him."Oh Summer" His voice towered over me before settling in the depths of my stomach and each part of my body

SUMMER.“You know you still haven’t told me your plans for after summer, right?” Vincent’s voice drifted me out of my thoughts and when I looked up at him, his hands swept across my face. “I don’t…I don’t even know” I stuttered. He scoffed with a smirky smile.“I mean the plan was to go to med school in New York, study to become a nurse like my mum or a physician at least” I said. “A nurse?” Vincent arched his brows. “Is it such a bad thing that I become a nurse?” I asked him with a slight humph but his chest exploded with laughter.“What?” I hit him lightly in his shoulders and Vincent just stared into my eyes for a moment. “I don’t know, who’s plan is that?” He asked. “You don’t strike me exactly as a nurse” He added.“Ouch” I heaved, though it wasn’t as serious. “I mean, is a nurse really who you want to become or it’s what Lily wants you to become?” Vince asked and at that question, my heart stomped. “What?” I asked softly. “Come on Summer. You and I both know how much you love t
His Dirty Little Secret Chapter 17: Sex.
SUMMER.There wasn’t anybody else I’d rather lose my virginity to than Vincent. But you see if you had asked me that any other time before this summer, I probably would’ve had no idea that it would happen anyway. That things would play out the way it did.But somehow here we were, with a condom in his hands and desire filled eyes piercing into mine. I was hot, and maybe a little nervous but I knew how I felt about him. I maybe might have even fallen in love with my father’s best friend. That was all I could think about.The endless possibilities that we might be right for each other. And it may sound delusional but when I looked at him, I could swear he was all I wanted. This was all I ever wanted.“Yes” I whispered, biting into my lips and he nodded with a smile on his. Vincent climbed out of his pants but he was never so far away from my face. “I’ll be gentle with you, sunshine” He kissed my forehead and I nodded. With his ever embracing arm, I felt the safest with him. “Are you o

SUMMER.The heat of the sun beamed against my face as I slowly opened my eyes to the warmth of the sunlight. He was right beside me with his hands already stroking my hair and I sat up with a smile across my face.“Good morning” I said softly and he heaved. “Morning, Sunshine” Vincent puckered his lips in a way that made me blush lightly. “The brightest of them all” He added. My cheeks were the brightest red of them all. “I made you a little breakfast” He darted an eye towards the bed stand on which there was a tray laying across. It was hard not to remember the last night, in fact it was all that was in my head. It shouldn’t have felt different, it should’ve been awkward but it wasn’t. It was as natural as it could’ve been, Vincent even going as far as placing a soft kiss on my lips. “Last night was amazing” I crossed my arms with a whisper leaving my lips and Vince grinned proudly.“It was.” He replied. “Come on…” He held me up and soon enough, there was a wave of uncertainty acr
His Dirty Little Secret Chapter 19: Spark.
SUMMER.I glided my shoulders to the sound of the thudding beat. By now, I was already slightly wasted but I could tell my left from my right. I don’t think I’d ever drank the way that I did that night. But luckily, Vincent was here. At least not here, but a safe distance away. He’d excused himself to take a call, the fourth time that night and the last time he left, I was able to catch a glimpse of Sarah’s name across his phone screen. But I guess she was just sort of like a business partner.I neared the bar of the concert, directing the bartender to pour me another drink which I downed through my throat. I exclaimed from my lips before slowly moving my shoulders to the music. The lights were flashing and the atmosphere was filled with a blend of booze and make outs.“Let it happen!” I yelled to the lyrical chorus of the famous Tame Impala song when suddenly I heard a voice draw close to where I sat. It wasn’t Vincent, I knew before I even turned around. “I like them” A man settle

LILY.SEVEN MONTHS LATER.I sat in that chair, opposite Dr Max. For a moment, the room was silent up until Davis came rushing in through the door. He was drenched in the rain and as he sat beside me, he heaved a deep sigh.“I’m sorry I’m late” He panted. “It’s in the middle of Spring and I don’t get why it rains everyday now” Davis shrugged and our counselor only let a light scoff. “Well I’m glad you’re both here” Dr Max folded his arms.I glanced at Davis and then at his outstretched arms before a hard lump went down my throat. We’d decided some months back that we were willing to give this another shot—but only after some thorough marriage counseling. And I could’ve sworn before that this was what I wanted.But as I sat in that chair, so much had already happened and I wasn’t so sure anymore. “So,” Dr Max cleared his throat. “How have you been? Trying to cohabit with each other once again?”“Especially with the baby around” He added and I sighed. “Lily, you go” I lifted my eyes to f

DAVIS.The corridors inside the building was well intertwined and dark. Barely any lights were working, about half of them flickered, a pattern which we followed until we got to the stairs. Then both Vincent and I came to a halt.“Which way now?” I lifted my eyes and the walls echoed by my words. “I doubt he’s taken her upstairs” He replied. It was completely dark up there, not even a twitch or a flicker.“He always talked about a basement around here. I’ve got to find it” He took his feet, scavenging his pocket for a torchlight. “Well I’m going to head upstairs, you stay here” I croaked. Vincent immediately stood to his feet, he turned back to me.“You really want to split up, now?” He asked and honestly, I just didn’t want to be anywhere near him now. I was beyond furious each time I thought about his hands on my daughter. Vincent was a mess and as much as he was my friend, we were nothing alike. He was bad news, nonchalant and reckless most of the time and this just proves my eve

VINCENT. “She’s in there.” I looked ahead at the building before all of a sudden, my phone started to ring in my pocket. The sheriff alongside everyone else almost installed darted their eyes back at me. I pulled my phone out and looking at the screen, a chill went up my spine.“It’s him” My heart stomped, seeing Diablo’s name across the screen. Davis and the sheriff raced backwards as I answered the call. “How does he know we’re here?” Davis was the most worried now, even Lily just stood at a distance with her arms crossed in front of her.“Shuu” I gestured. Across the phone screen, it was pitch black for the first few seconds but that was before we heard a shrill cry in the background. I would know her voice from a mile away—Summer.“Diablo!” I gritted through my teeth. “So you’ve fallen right into my trap huh?” Although we couldn’t see him or anything, we heard his voice. “Leave the girl alone. It’s me you want!” I muttered.“Oh Vincent, sweet naive Vincent. Because I have your l

VINCENT. "Are you okay?" Stella's shriveled voice was barely audible over the phone. Davis's car had only just come to a halt and it wasn't upon alighting the vehicle that I was face to face with the police station. A hard lump went down my throat as I realized what this could mean.And even if I didn't, Stella was there was to remind me."Where are you?" She asked. "I'm at the police with Davis, we have to turn him in before he hurts anyone else" I said, referring to Gustavo and I heard a couple of sobs on her end. "Are you out of your mind?" It was predictable that she'd be distraught."That could put you in a lot of trouble—""But he has Summer!" I yelled through gritted teeth. It had been hours but he still had Summer, I didn't care if I had to go to prison or make an enemy of Gustavo if it was the only way to get her back. She was all that mattered and he crossed the line abducting her."Put us, Vincent" Stella whispered. "This could put the both of us in serious danger. I'm sca

DAVIS.“Yeah she’s doing better now” I placed the phone against my ears as I threaded down the stairs. Lily hummed on the other end of the line and I could swear I heard a light scuffle in that moment.“What is it?” I recognized an ‘i told you so’ even from a distance. “Nothing” She whispered. “The one day I was there, it was obvious how much of a handle she was” She referred to Taylor and speaking of the devil, I looked across the kitchen counter where she stood. She had her face buried into her phone screen like she did half the time.And she was picking out from a fruit bowl just beside her. I heaved a deep breath. “But I guess she must be something special about her” Lily added with a sweet tone. “Otherwise why else would you be with her” She continued and as I walked further, I realized I could ask myself that same question and still wouldn’t have the answer.“I gotta go” I pinched the bridge of my nose as Lily exhaled. “Goodbye, Davis” She said before hanging up. I looked into t

VINCENT.“Fuck!” I screamed into the skies, ramming my fist into the side of my bike until my knuckles bled. But there was no use, I couldn’t even feel it beneath the pouring rain. My hair was drenched and soaked across half my face. Only after a while did I run my hands through it and I sucked in air through my lips. My hands fell to my waist as I tried to figure out what the fuck just happened. Summer was mad, I didn’t think she’d be after everything, especially the time she told me she loved me.A moment that had been replaying in my head ever since. I rattled my brain as to why I couldn’t have just said it back. I mean I’d said it a countless time to women I probably didn’t mean it to. It was so easy to lie but this was different. It felt different.Summer wasn’t just any woman, she was Summer.Or maybe the actual reason that I couldn’t say it was deep down, I knew it was true. And I knew the moment I said it, it would all just become real. I would be vulnerable and it scared me.
His Dirty Little Secret Chapter 24: Stupid.
SUMMER.The past few nights, Vincent and I had spent together. They were perfect, down to every last bit of it. Once the clock struck midnight, I would already be waiting by the windows. He'd bring his bike and I'd bring myself.They were the perfect few nights, sometimes we'd stay by the lake and just gaze into the star filled skies. He'd tell me everything he knew about Orion and I never would've been able to guess that Vincent was into astrology. But he was just so layered, it was beautiful.Each moment I spent with him was never dry or boring, there was always something more that I knew about him. And he'd said the same about me. But with every night that passed, it filled with me even more dread than happiness because it was a reminder that Summer was nearly over. At least for me.As much as I would've loved to stay in Oregon, I still had a life back at New York, med school and my mum. Everything else that had been planned since the beginning of time. I usually didn't care so mu

SUMMER.“How could you still let her to be on her own after everything?!” My dad raised his voice at my mum but she was well prepared for his tantrum. Wedging into him, she looked him straight into his eyes.“Give her a break, Davis” Lily urged. He panted heavily, pinching the bridge of his nose. I caught his lackluster stare as I giggled my way up the stairs. Most especially whilst covering my scarred arms. At least it was healing but it was only about an hour since I got the tattoo.“You’re going to spoil this girl…”“Taylor, please.” My mum replied. I heard a couple more back and forths before I reached my room door. I slammed it, immediately finding my way into the bathroom. I stared into the mirror, looking down at my arm, across which was a little V inscribed into my flesh. It was scarlet red in color so as maybe small as it was, it was still so visible.I fell in love with the experience, I was definitely getting another after this. I squealed in front of the mirror, the most a

SUMMER.“Summer” My mum moved closer to me. “I am, I guess…” “Please don’t lie to me” Lily begged. “Please don’t lie” And my heart broke. “I don’t know mum. I just feel lost and there’s not many words to describe the way I’m feeling right now. Like I feel empty, like I don’t even know myself anymore. I find myself hating dad more and more each day and Taylor doesn’t even help matters. Then on the other hand, I find myself liking peo—things that I never thought I would” I whispered.“Im just…Lost.”“Oh Summer.” She called. “Don’t call me that, you know it feels like fall instead. A sunday morning in Autumn when the smell of dread fills the air. I should’ve been called that instead” I muttered beneath my breath.“Do you know why I named you Summer?” My mum suddenly asked and I darted a look back at her. “Yeah, you told me once on a drunken night” I scoffed and she rolled her eyes to the back. Mine were tearful.“After dad?”“After dad…” She echoed. “It was the time I met him and the ti
