TAYThree days, 3 days have passed without her, and they have been the worst days of my life ever. I thought I could change her mind. Life without her is miserable and I can't sleep properly. I eat just because I must eat, not because I'm hungry. I don't know what to do to convince her that we need each other, that we are each other's breaths. She doesn't answer my calls or maybe she blocked me and not being able to hear her voice is driving me crazy. A sound breaks me from my painful thoughts, and I look at my laptop to see I have a new e-mail. I have thrown myself into work in attempts to forget her. It only works for a while and then I will go back to thinking about her again. I don't know what to do anymore.I open the e-mail and it's about one of my latest projects. My phone rings before I can read the e-mail."Danny?" I push my hair off my forehead and lean back on the single couch."I called to ask if you got the e-mail, sir?" I hear yawns and I look at the time at the bottom
OLIVIAI stare at the people before me, I don’t even half of the people that came. I still couldn't believe it is her funeral. I can’t fathom the fact that she killed herself. I don't understand why she would do something like this. Was the pain too much for her? Didn't she want to live anymore? I wish I could talk to dead people then I would ask her why she did it. My hand grabs hold of the letter she left for me in my pocket.“I was given a letter by my father from mom. I didn’t have the courage to read before but now I have,” I spot the Payne brothers at the back in black suits and sunglasses. They came. My mother’s coffin stands in front of me. I take it out and open it, finally finding the courage to read it.Olivia,My beautiful, my one and only daughter. I’m a coward. This is the first time I have written a letter to anyone; it feels so weird writing all I have been feeling and felt on a piece of paper.My mind forms an image of her laughing with tears rolling down her ch
OLIVIAAs soon as my lips mould with Tay’s, a sigh of satisfaction leaves my mouth. It feels like it has been years since I last kissed him. It feels so right and I’m aware that what I’m doing right now is being selfish, but I can't help myself. I need to feel him one last time, just this one last time. His hands go around my waist, and he hoists me up and places me on the counter. He moves in between my legs and pulls me impossibly closer to him. I break the kiss and trail wet kisses down his jaw. He moans and tightens his hold on me. I have never done something like this to him, he has always been the one to ignites everything. I suck his neck and my name rolls off his tongue, making me wetter than I already am. I tug his t-shirt, pull away from him to lift his shirt over his head, and toss it on the floor. My hands work on their own and they find his face, but he stops me,“Wait,” he says out of breath.“We need to talk. As much as I would love to fuck you right now, we need to
OLIVIAI sigh as the door slams shut behind him and I sit on the bed with the duvet still wrapped around my naked body. I knew he wouldn't take the news well. I don't know what the hell I was thinking coming here. I should have just left without saying anything. I grab my clothes from the floor and dress up. I pull my hair tie from the pocket of my hoodie and pull my hair into a messy ponytail. I place my hand on the doorknob and turn to look at the room I used to call mine one last time."This is it." I say, take a deep breath and walk out leaving everything behind.I enter the kitchen to find Tay standing by the kitchen island and a bottle of water in front of him. His head down in defeat and his hands at the edge of the counter."Why? Why are you punishing me for something I didn't do?" he turns his head in my direction."I'm not punishing you, Tay. This was bound to happen sooner or later. We are a mess." I say and tuck a strand of my hair behind my ear. "I’m more of a mess with
TAYI gulp down the rest of the whiskey. I have lost count of how many drinks I have had since morning. She didn’t even hesitate to board the plane. She left and didn’t turn back. She left me. I throw the bottle of whiskey against the wall screaming. I flip the mattress and everything that I can get my hands on.Someone starts shouting my name but all I see is Olivia leaving. She might not have seen me at the airport, but I was there. A part of me was hoping she would turn back and come back to me."Tay calm down" a familiar voice yells. Nate touches my shoulder and I drop on my knees to the floor tugging my hair."She left." I sob. Nate stays silent. I can sense he doesn't even know what to say to me to make me feel better."She didn't even hesitate. She left me. I lost her. It's over." Tears stream down my cheeks, and I don't bother wiping them off."I’m sure she will come back man." I chuckle and lean my back against the back of the bed."There is no need to lie to me, Nate. Give i
OLIVIATay is standing in front of me with a worried face. I stare at him not being able to form a sentence. I look around and notice I’m at a hospital and there is a bandage around my wrists. He steps closer and pulls me to his chest. He hugs me tight like if he lets go, I will vanish. I hug him with the same thought. Last night memories played in my mind and a sob comes out. I don't know if things will go back to normal or we will break up forever. I sigh breathing in his scent that clams me down all the time. It feels good being in his arms, it feels like home after going away for a while. He nuzzles his head in the crook of my neck and it feels like I haven't been in his arms in a long time."Tay?" I slowly whisper hoping he will let me go because he is crashing me."Please let me hold you a little longer. I want to make sure you are real. This feels like a fucking dream. I have never thought I will be able to hold you again after what you did." He confesses and I let him hold b
OLIVIA“What? Why?”“Because you are still recovering,”“That’s bullshit!” He laughs.“Please? I need to feel loved?” I beg.He moulds our lips together and I wrap my hands around his neck. He slips his tongue in and I groan. My hands travel down, and I tug on his t-shirt. He breaks the kiss and pulls his t-shirt over his head in one swift motion and crash our lips together again. My hands move up and down his chest. He breaks the kiss, and trails wet kisses down my jaw to my neck. I throw my head back to give him more access. He breaks the kiss and pulls away from me."What happened?" I ask, confused."This needs to go," he says, and before I can ask him what he lifts me up so that I am sitting and pull my shirt up. I lift my hands up and he pulls the shirt over my head and tosses it on the floor."Better," he says. I lie back on the bed half-naked. He hovers above me and looks into my eyes."You are beautiful, Olivia." His thumb runs over my jaw."You have a beautiful body and I’
OLIVIAThe fresh breeze makes my hair shield my face and I bring my hand to my face and tuck my hair behind my ear. My elbow is out the window. I watch as the other cars speed along with Tay’s rental grey Audi A4. I turn my head to look at him at the same time he turns to look at me. He stares at me for a while and looks back at the road, his elbow sticking out of the window. One hand on the steering wheel. We are headed to the grocery store.Tay woke me up with kisses all over my face. We took a shower together. I was surprised we were able to get out of the shower, to be honest. It was very tempting to have sex in the shower.Seconds later, I feel a hand-on mine and I turn and Tay brings my hand to his mouth and he plants a quick kiss on my knuckles. My heart warms up at his sweet gesture. I just hope it stays like this forever. We deserve it after the many struggles we’ve been through. I hope everything falls into place from now on. Tay pulls up in front of the mall and we both c
