CHARLES POV

I tightened my grip on whatever I was holding as the sun rays tormented me through the opened binds of my window.

I finally gave in to its crave for attention and forced my eyes to open, it was then i realized it was already morning and the 'whatever' I was squeezing tightly happened to be Crimsons waist.

After our long conversation last night, she fell asleep and looked way to comfortable to be disturbed at that time so I let her sleep.

Over the years I had of course monitored my Crim but I did so from afar, I could never let distance block me out from her life.

Although I knew the answers to almost everything I was busy asking her, I still felt the need to hear from her and be certain there weren't things I as yet to know.

I knew she had no boyfriend and had never confessed to having any romantic feeling for a specific somebody.

Nevertheless I still had to ensure Brenna who was literally always with her was nothing but a friend.

That is how possessive I could be when it comes to the woman I loved, she was mine and mine only and I would easily do my worse if it meant protecting her..... yeah you heard me right, I was in love with Crimson.

At first I didn't know how to explain my feelings especially since it took effect the moment I first laid my eyes on the five year old Crimson whose smile sent rumbles through my chest.

I thought it would go with time but it only grew, I blamed puberty and went around f**king for relief but it didn't change what I felt at all.

I finally caved in and accepted my feelings at the age of seventeen but then and now, I still have no idea how to tell Crimson I loved her more than a sister, she was the reason I kept f**king all around and never settled down and thinking of what the result would be after I confessed terrified me a lot.

I was about to sneak out of bed when I heard her voice "don't leave", I really didn't enjoy leaving that way but how could I stay when the temptation to touch her was taking control of my movement as my member pushed aggressively begging for some sort of relieve.

She was sleeping so peacefully with her long hair strapped into a loose bun, she had a baggy top on but something about the way her nipples pushed against the fabric made me wonder if she wore anything beneath.

I was at the peak of giving into the unbearable temptation when my phone rang.

"Hello, prepare the files I will come to the office today", if going to my office was going to distract me from these crazy urge then I would gladly run to work.

"Hey Crimson, I need to go to work", "work? but I thought you were doing it from home this month" she replied with a sleepy voice while stretching her hands lazily.

"I am but I need to handle something urgently, I will see you later. you can sleep back".

CRIMSON POV

I woke up feeling a strong hand strap my waist tightly, I was about to go into full panic mode when I heard Charles voice.

He seemed to be speaking to someone on the phone and I guess I dozed off in his room as usual.

"Hey Crimson, I need to go to work" I was still really sleepy but I remembered Charles had told my dad he would work from home for now so why the change, or was he planning to run away and disappear again.

He said it was an urgent matter he had to look into, I felt a little bit relieved.

"you can sleep back" if only he knew I didn't need his permission to do that, I would have escorted him to work or at least stop by to see one of his many companies that was surprisingly not too far from our house but it was Saturday; a day to sleep, rest, watch movies, probably go out and just lazy around all day.

**************************

The next week went by so slowly, my dad was happy Charles and I had reconciled although I would still steal moments to pressure him into telling me the unfinished explanations for five years ago, I totally enjoyed this holiday and it was a shame I had just two weeks left before resumption.

"Miss Bold please don't trouble your brother, I will be gone for just a week", "Dad I am the peaceful one here, you should be telling him not to trouble me not the other way around".

"Darling his the responsible one here and you are the adult that have refused to grow up", "Dad!!", "I love you too and don't skip your meals".

My dad was travelling for some business to Africa and according to him he would spend just a week but at the end he would always make sudden extension.

At least this year I would not be totally bored like other years since Charles was around, before I only had Brenna to keep me company over the phone then I would spend my remaining time watching movies, reading or having a conversation with my neighbour dogs about noise control.

We spent the entire day having fun and trying different flavours of ice cream after Charles came back from dropping my dad at the airport.

"So Charles since you wont tell me about anything that happened to you in the last five years can you at least tell me who the luck girl is, I am so eager to meet my nephews and niece but you are delaying".

"you are the luck girl" Charles replied starring at my lips for some reason instead of my eyes.

"Very funny, do you think you can avoid the questions forever. I am very good at investigating these things so I will find out soon, wait and see",

"don't waste your time, i'm single but I have someone I love. Its just that she's got no idea" he took a deep breath like he was pained, i'm sure he was I mean I cant imagine loving someone who wont reciprocate.

"and those five years away were the most painful years of my life, it was hard and I did a lot of evil things that I don't want you to ever know. so please don't try to find out"

His tone had changed from painful to unimaginably painful and regretful, I can't help but wonder what really happened all those years.

The next day he went to work again for some urgent issues he had to handle personally, but I wasn't too bored as Brenna called to update me about her crazy clubbing experience and things happening in school.

It was announced that from next semester we would be taking more practical courses and be exposed to lessons from prominent tourist characters, that was the exciting part of the course I had been waiting for since forever.

Brenna also felt I would be happy and interested in knowing about her one night stand experiences so she felt the need to update me on ever disgusting adventure she was busy enjoying.

I envied her a little because even with being a single ass I still could not exercise as much freewill and enjoyments as she did.

Well after hearing Brenna talk all day I was totally exhausted but grateful for the company.

"Girl you are single you need to enjoy it while it last" Brenna's words kept ringing in my ears so I pulled out my laptop and decided to do something crazy after all no one was home and Charles said he would be coming in late.

I turned on my laptop and decided to try something new and exciting like watching some porn.

The first time I watched one was in highschool when I accidentally transferred some from my friends flash drive and I had never felt the need to watch one again, at least not until now.

Well it's been the hardest sixty minutes of my life, I've spent thirty minutes now banging the door pleading for Crimson to open up and I spent the other thirty minutes doing things that made her lock the door.EARLIER*** I was supposed to work late and finish up all the business for the week but I couldn't focus because Crimson kept ignoring my calls. I was probably worried for nothing, maybe she was just far from her phone or engrossed with the TV. Nonetheless I was still really worried so I decided to round up work early and check up on her. I got home and just dashed towards her room in a hurry, I heard some weird sounds but just couldn't comprehend what they were. "Oh my god!! Charles knock, that's why there

    CRIMSON POV You know how they always say to 'be careful about what you do for every action will be accompanied by a repercussion' , well that statement is exactly what my life had been all about for a week now. After what happened between Charles and I, its been really awkward around the house. We haven't talked since then, not like I had given us a chance to converse, actually I had taken it upon myself to avoid speaking or making eye contacts with him, in fact avoiding him totally was like a mission I was sure to get praised for how excellently I carried it out. How was I supposed to handle the fact that Charles loved me more than our relationship permits. He had mentioned it before that he was in love with someone but she wasn't aware of it, never would I have thought I would end up being that someone. Dad was supposed to be back already but just as I expected he said his journey would be delayed for three more days so I would have just four days to spend with him since my

  • LIKE A BROTHER   STAY WITH YOU

    CRIMSON POV Never for once did I ever imagine a day like this would come when I would be so eager to get back to school, but here I was standing at the walkway of my house, waiting for my cab to the airport, with my fully loaded luggage I had packed down for days now. When dad returned the tension between Charles and I was still very much present but we took it upon ourselves to make it lack visibility. Luckily enough for us dad suspected nothing and he even gave me little to no university lifestyle coaching lesson like he always did when it was time for me to return. I wasn't sure why the insecurity he always had while sending me off to school was absent but it speared me the sermons and survival hacks so i'm kinda grateful to whatever soothed his overly worried mind. "Crim I am heading to the airport, let me drop you off" there it was again, that voice I desperately tried to avoid, "It's fine I already booked a cab and its prepaid". I would rather run the tracks to the airport

    CHARLES POV Yesterday I got a handful of complaints and grumbling from Crimson all night long, despite the tough night I still had to wake up early to prepare for the days work. I planned on managing the vein branch over here, although it's one of the smallest branch of the vein empire allocated to one of my minor investor, I still needed to check it out since I was in town. After checking on business I planned on stopping by the university to check when my lectures would commence. As I was busy heating the breakfast I had just ordered, Crimson walked in. Her formally perfect bun was now a total disaster, she stretched out while yawning and her baggy top gave way for the sunlight to kiss her skinny legs, while her back arched forward making her n*pples stand in ovation. She moved towards the cabinet and grabbed a cup to drink water while swaying her head left and right like there was some music box inbuilt in her brain. She only realized my presence when I made way to turn off t

    CHARLES POV I rushed back home after concluding all the unnecessary procedures that they deemed important. I had to ring the bell twice again before Crimson came to open it and this time around she made me spell my name before unlocking it, I should never had preached about door safety to her yesterday now she's punishing me for my consideration and sincere concern. The parlour smelt like cake and I knew why immediately I spotted Crimsons messed up apron. "What are you doing?", "cup cakes, I'm going to a party today, its a resumption party" she replied while rubbing her hands eagerly, admiring her work. " why would you take cupcakes to a school party, what are you?, three years old." her expression suddenly changed and she took a minute to think of my point. "who was the guy I saw you with at school?" her head immediately snapped up when I asked her, "it's none of your business and are you really serious about the university job?. " I mean who even employed you?" of course it

  • LIKE A BROTHER   RESUMPTION

    We arrived at the party and it was at that moment of entry I realized I fucked up. I should never had agreed to attended a party with a discreet location Brenna knows about, the fact that Lucas was the one giving out invitation should have even been my red flag. "Now look what I've got myself into" I said silently as I watched half baked youth walk around half naked with stripped versions of cloths and alcohols splattered over their bodies like sweat. The party was actually at an abandoned tunnel or better still a hideout, right below a functioning train station. To make things worst we had to run through the tracks before the next train smashed us smoothly like cheese. It was just like a club house but the fear of death or police raid was what replaced the fun I was meant to have. "You made it, you look cute" I heard Lucas say as he screamed over the loud music, "I made it here but I cant say the same about making it out" if only he knew how eager I was to sneak out of here in on

    CRIMSON POV The day was really an awkward one filled with provocative encounters. In as much as I never want to relive the day, I still couldn't help but rewind the scenes of the day as I tossed around on the bed. I expected the day to start off normally just like it always did in the years past but the fact that I had attended the resumption party and gained some unwanted attention was limitation enough to my expectations. Just as I feared I got deadly stares as I tried my possible best to hasten through the walkways and into any random closet of solitude I could find. I mean for the first time in my four years of study at university I was fortunate enough or would I rather say unfortunate enough to have a conversation with a total stranger by the walk way. The girl just walked up to me and I thought myself lucky to get a 'Hi' from a random hot chick but those thoughts lasted up until she asked what my relationship was with Lucas, it was at that moment I wished teleportation was a

The classes had been going extremely well for all the female students except for Crimson of course. Just as expected every girl wanted so desperately to be noticed by Charles, even some of the guys had plans to change his sexuality. Life could have been exciting for him if only Crimson was part of the drooling multitude interested in him. As for Crimson she wanted nothing more than to end the year as fast as possible. It was torture enough for her to see girls flaunt themselves all over Charles but the fact that she was not ready to acknowledge her jealousy and the reason for it, made the torture even more severe.

    CRIMSON'S POV It had been a week since I got back home, it was a week filled with a rollercoaster of emotions. I kind of mended things with my dad but I still had to give him a little cold shoulder so that he realizes that I can't be easily swayed into leaving Charles for the baggy sweaters and candies he bought. Although it would have been a possibility if he added icecream to his purchase. The things I would do for that worthy brain freeze. Charles had not returned home so I was worried and pondering on whether his delayed return was because of my father or his work, and there was also the possibility that he no longer finds our relationship worth fighting for. I was still wallowing away time, thinking of the hurdles I needed to overcome. I hadn't even spared thoughts to the troubles awaiting me at school. That was another issue I had to worry about so I allocated nightime to worry about that. My schedule was filled up with moments to worry about how fucked up my life w

    CHARLES POV My hands were covered in blisters as I continued to punch him, the poor thing took a million blows before he got a chance to give one. After I was done I packed the bruised bodies of his minions and placed them in the trunk of my car while I put Louen at the back seat and made sure to strap him properly. He was once my friend after all. Nonetheless being my friend at some point in time didn't give him the right to play stunts that would hurt Crimson. So yeah I had to beat him up and then give him a brotherly hug. After my private investigator sent Louen's name with sufficient proofs that he took the pictures on that night at the school trip, I wasn't surprised not even a little. As much of a bad boy or gangster he would love to consider himself, there were still lots of moments he displayed his true dump, naive child personality. If he truly held me responsible for his dad's death he wouldn't take such pitiful methods to hurt me, he would kill me outrightly. He

    CHARLES POV I had invited Mr Bold over to have a conversation over a cup of coffee. He first rejected the offer but later texted that he would rather talk over a beer instead. We both knew he came for less conversations and more blows, who wouldn't grab on the opportunity to beat up a guy at a dark crowded bar. After he arrived, I spent the next five minutes apologizing while he went on and on about how inconsiderate and unreasonable I apparently was. I took a minute to explain to him that my sorry was for endangering Crimson not for being in love with her and as you may have guessed, I ended up spending the next five minutes recieving blows. After anger had been vented and bruises had been administered, we finally got a chance to talk. He of course asked how long we had been together and I most definitely wasn't going to tell him we started hooking up while he was in Africa. So I just told the truth, I said we were officially together few minutes before he pounced in. I

    CRIMSON POVThe week was a rollercoaster of trouble, I had never had to go through so much disturbance in just a week. I was hoping the Lucas issue self settled itself since I skipped the revision week and even failed to tutor him and thankfully it was already half gone. I had exams to write but heaven knows I didn't get a chance to read nothing, so the plan was to say a prayer and await the miracle. All week I was worried, confused and utterly shocked. I know that's a whole lot of different emotions but trust me they all came crashing in, one by one. I was worried about Charles. After the clash he had with my dad he didn't come back. I would love to call it a stand off or a fight but honestly it was more of a beat up. I called him and he said he was staying at the hotel for awhile but awhile sounded like forever cause my dad was going nowhere. When my dad said Charles was fucking me and that I was naive, it made our relationship look like an assault case. He was being i

    CRIMSON POVI was taken like an hostage but returned like a princess. The chauffer pulled up right at the front of my house an honestly I couldn't fathom the confidence Louen had. I called Charles immediately I got into the house, I was itching to call him on the way but I couldn't risk having the driver hear our conversation. It was clear that kidnapping me was just a medium to get to Charles. However I couldn't understand what must have gone wrong between Charles and Louen to have him do such a thing. I was hoping it was just a prank, call me stupid but that hope what was kept me from going crazy and rushing to the cops. Thank God I didn't. Charles came back after receiving my call and all he said when I told him I was back home was 'okay'. A really weak okay. He got back after twenty-seven minutes, thirty-two seconds. Yes I was counting, like a hawk I kept watching the door until the door knobs finally twisted. He looked furious and sweaty like he went for a run. His eye

    CRIMSON'S POV "Charles help me, someone is following me. I am near the bus........" I couldn't finish my statement as my phone was grabbed out of my hand weakened with the effect of chloroform placed over my face. I did say the day was terrible with all the Lucas drama, but little did I know that scary was awaiting my presence at the later hours. I had just left school feeling a little relaxed that Charles was not around to witness the unfortunate drama going on at school. I was going to grab a cab home but I decided to rather take a little stroll till I get to the bus stop at a further distance. I needed to clear my head and nothing works better than a peaceful stroll with a sadist playlist activated and starring at random things. I felt like someone was following me, there's this tingling feeling you get when eyes are on you. I couldn't dare brush the feelings off, not after the tormented walk I had through the hallways at school. I took unnecessary corners hoping that

    CRIMSON POVIt was a tough week to survive through. It was a week to my exam the same week happened to be the week I foolishly agreed to tutor Lucas whom Charles have now warned me to stay away from. It also happened to be the week I became visible as a public figure with no beautiful brand name.Just as I was still thinking of the fucked up week on my plate, Brenna popped up to rub salt on my wounds again. “Babes you’ve got some girls wishing they were you and others hoping to get a chance to ambush you in the bathroom” she sat beside me pinching and teasing me all excited about all that bothers me. Actually I had walked into school just like every other day, passing Charles office while reminiscing memories I shouldn’t, acting all invisible with my comfy cloths on and sticking to my sober playlist to keep the mood going. Just like every other day, I thought it would be the same but as I walked through the hallway I felt eyes on me, loud whispers I fearfully blocked out with my

    So it was finally the weekend and I was supposed to meet up with Brenna for some study time but she choose Kendrick over me once again. I was seriously getting jealous.So much for supporting a healthy relationship.Since there wasn’t much to do apart from studying of course. I laid in my bed, threw the red blanket over myself and started reliving the scene yet again.Yes you guessed right. I’m talking about the shower scene.So it was a Wednesday and we had been defending our projects all week long. Charles was in school to listen to our defense.He had taught us literarily nothing. The hotel practical lesson we had was nothing more than a vacation away from school.I guess that was the fun of tourism after all.Although he had given us no lessons he still did well to make sure the supervisor took the lesson while we went sight seeing. So thankfully we had something to write on the project.It wasn’t much but no one was complaining. Not even miss Sandra. There was something about
