2024-10-29 19:42:56I swayed against the kitchen wall, staring at the broad back of Sean that was cooking over the stove.
His black pants held his torso firmly, his shirt sleeves were folded up to his elbow while sweet aroma filled every corner of the space.
I grinned when a bulb lit up in my head. I walked over to him and wrapped my arms around his waist, hugging him, I felt his body tense up for a second before it relaxed, something he usually did whenever I touched him, seemed like he wasn't used to being touched unaware.
I placed my chin on his shoulder and watched as he cut the vegetables fastly, without flaw, which made me wonder if this man had any flaws but I believed he did but was good at hiding it, we never spoke about that night when he nearly sent me to meet my mom earlier that I wanted. "What are you making tonight?"
"Why don't you be patient, it's a surprise"
"I love surprises e

"I think his past is sophisticated" I voiced over to Jarvis who was sitting opposite side of me. We were in a restaurant after school hours were over, I couldn't go over to Sean's because he would be busy at the hospital which left me with this idiot with a more intricated love than I did. "Maybe he's a serial killer" Jarvis shrugged. "Or maybe he had been in jail before for murder or maybe he raped a child or he's a sadistic psycho, a bloody maniac" "Why are you thinking of all the bad things in the world" He shrugged again. "Am preparing you just in case he did something worst" "What could be worst than all those things you mentioned and I don't think Sean raped a child" "He's dating a child" I slammed my fist on the table. "Say that again, I'll shove your dick in your ass!" He raised his hands in surrender. "Calm down man

«TRISTAN'S POINT OF VIEW»"And that would be all for today, I'll see you on Monday"With that, classes were dismissed, I picked up my bag and walked out the door with other students, and met Jarvis outside, he had an ample smile on his face, one that I hadn't seen for a long time, he was joyous and I was happy for him."Why are you smiley?" I asked with a scoff."And why the hell are you moody?" He countered but I shrugged. "There's this party tonight at Mark, you coming?"I shook my head. "No, Sean is teaching me how to save my life today" I stared at Jarvis, found him sporting a mystified expression. "He's teaching me how to cook dummy," I asserted and his mouth made an O shape but suddenly began simmering with excitement."When you're done, can you come to teach me?!" He tugged on my arm.I pushed him off. "Go

"Here, I saved this for you" Jarvis threw me a box as soon as I stepped into our shared dorm the next day. I groaned as I recognized the damn box."I thought I left this shit" I went over to my bed and fell on it, staring at the ceiling, a small smile on my face as I thought back to last night when Sean taught me how to make pancakes but a simple cooking lesson turned into my flour bath as we destroyed the kitchen but later made the most delicious pancakes, well, he did and I just helped with mixing and cracking of eggs because my first attempt at making one turned into a huge disaster and I spend the night, trust me, we didn't do anything. I fell asleep in his arms but woke up in the middle of the night to find Sean working on his desk, I had to drag him back to bed and cuddle.Then, my mind went back to the box and my mood instantly turned sour. What was in it?"One minute you're smiling like an idiot and the next minu

«TRISTAN'S POINT OF VIEW»"Tristan, what are you doing here. You left two hours ago" Sean opened the door of his flat and I ambled in without saying a word. I went straight to the living room and he hounded behind me. "Are you alright?" He catechized as we finally stopped, his gaze went down my cluttered form, swelling eyes, and racked hair. He extended his hand to touch me but my body reacted on its own as I move back, shifting away from his touch and I didn't miss the excruciation that glimmered in his eyes while an awful feeling erected inside of me."What's going on, did something happen?" his voice was latched with derail, bother."I know I said I will not pressure you in telling me anything about your past and am sorry am going back on my words but I want you to tell me everything before I vault to a verdict," I let out gradually, my eyes staring directly through his and once again, his body tensed and

I wandered into the dorm I shared with Jarvis, immediately found him sitting on his bed, feet tapping continuously on the floor, he instantly stood up when I walked in."Thank God, I was so worried" he sighed in relief but I stared at him blankly, I felt drained, I felt my hope slipping through my hands, flying away before I could even grip it."He didn't kill me as you think" I rolled my eyes and went over to my bed, lying down and immediately put the blankets over my body, covering my body."Tristan-" he started but I cut him off."Leave me alone, I need a moment to myself" I answered through the blanket and I heard him sigh before the sound of the door opening and shutting reached my ears.I instantly threw the blankets off my body and gazed up at the white ceiling.My body suddenly felt numb but tears rolled down my face. My heart aching as I though

"Here's your drink"I lifted my head at the voice and accepted the cup of coffee from Jarvis who sat on the opposite side of me on the table. I took a sip and let the herby taste gush freely down my throat. I placed it down on the table and went back to scribbling on my notebook, blocking out my surrounding as I solved the math equation again and again and for the nth time, I got it inaccurately, I grunted, throwing the pen away and pushed the books away from me, ignoring the anxious look Jarvis was giving me.I threw my head back and wiped my face with my palms, breathing harshly in vexation. I grabbed the cup of coffee and gulped the warm liquid down my throat."Calm down man" Jarvis enunciated as I put the cup down with a loud thud. Fortunately for it, it didn't break."I can't do it," I announced, scowling at the Notebook that seemed to be my greatest foe at the moment.Jarvi

Unhurriedly, my hand lifted to knock on the door but again, it got hung in the air. Instantly, my hand plunged at my side and a hefty sigh left my mouth. Was I going to do it? Of course, I was, it was why I came here in the first place.Would he exonerate me?Sadly, my head dropped drastically, my feet suddenly coming off more intriguing than my life at the moment. I bit my bottom lips when I felt them start to wobble again. Oh God, what was awry with me, why was I getting so volatile?I sighed again, my hand went up to knock but the door suddenly opened and my breath fixed, my heart ceased for a second and my hand was caught in the air.There he was, the man that had given me wakeful nights, looking so...so...troubled?His broad form seemed flimsy, even though he was wearing glasses, I could see the sourness in his eyes, the bags that were so apparent, his face was worn ou

JARVIS'S POINT OF VIEW.I stretched my arms backward as the morning sun pierced through the window of my room, my eyes shut and a placid smile displayed on my lips. I shifted my body, trying to turn on my side but I perceived something hefty on my tiny waist. Insensibly I beamed wider, repositioning my body closer to whatever lying abaft me, yearning more of what it had to offer, warmth, security, and sensation, I yearned extra of it.Sluggishly, my eyes fluttered open, the first thing coming into view was the pale white ceiling of my room. Pokily, my sleepy gaze shifted down to my body to discover an arm engirdled around my front. Slowly, I turned on my side, coming face to face with the catnapping features of my treasure.The only one with the authority to make him say yes when I had already said a big no to others. I chuckled inwardly, feeling jelly inside having my lover this near after so

TRISTAN'S POINT OF VIEW "Have this?" I lifted my head at the voice and found a bowl stretched out to me and I accepted it with both hands and just stared at the hot soup inside. "You should drink, it's good" I nodded before bringing the bowl to my lips and gulped every content inside and handed the bowl back, wiping my lips with the shirt sleeves. "Are you okay, is there something you would need?" The thick voice inquired again and I shook my head. I didn't want anything, I wanted to say but the words forbade to abandon my lips, and then, I heard him sigh before sitting down before my line of sight and my eyes couldn't help but scan his features and realized nothing had changed over the past two years, he looked young yet matured. I averted my gaze, not wanting to stare any longer, and just fondle with my hands. "Are

"Are you hungry?"I lifted my head at the voice, found the crazy woman holding up a sandwich to my face but I averted my gaze, who knew if it was poisoned."You don't want it, suit yourself then" she shrugged and took a large bite from it before going back to her seat on the branches.My head went up as the sun burnt down on my skin. How long had it been since I was tied up, yeah,...two days. I have been held up against the trees for two days with this woman as my watch guard. With a weary sigh, my head lowered."How long am I going to stay like this, it's better if you just kill me instead," my voice came out hazardous, weak."Not yet, dear"Slowly, my head went up as I heard crunching sound of branches and footsteps and I watched as Mrs. Benita sauntered towards us with a little smile on her face, her eyes were not the brown I kn

Snap snap, snap!The sound of snapping of fingers pulled me out from my unconscious mind as my eyes opened but it was a blur in front of me. I shook my head, trying to get rid of the cloudiness but cold liquid was smashed on my face, and instantly, I jerked and shivered violently as the chilling water graced my eyes and my vision was more filled with water till a cloth was wiped over my face and my sight cleared and found a woman in front of me and my eyes widened while her pale lips smirked, her blue orbs glimmering."Hello, Jarvis's Friend" she waved cheerfully at me, and horror finally struck me to the core."How come you're here?" The words left my mouth baffled, stunned but the strong breeze that brushed my skin had me quivering again, especially from the cold water that soaked my body and that was when I saw the timbers ahead of me, the dry, green leaves of the forest and behind me was a

TRISTAN'S POINT OF VIEWI released the unpleasant tie around my neck as I sauntered into the mansion. One by one, I popped the buttons on my coat and slipped them off my shoulders, and hung them over my shoulder as I headed straight for the kitchen but met my stepmom and little nuts chopping some vegetables on the counter.My stepmom smiled as soon as her eyes landed on me and I nearly flinched at how ample her smile was, it was approximately eerie and boycotted a nerve in my system. She needed to stop smiling like that "I wasn't expecting you so early today"I walked over to the fridge and helped myself with a glass of water before answering... "I finished work early""Oh, you will have to wait a few more minutes then, dinner is not ready" she announced and I nodded."Where's dad?""In his room, you should go get him"

Tristan's Point of View«TWO YEARS LATER»“Tristan, are you going to keep ignoring me, is that it?”I finally glanced up from the files spread on the table before me, stared up at the taxing voice, and found one of my dilemmas over the past two years of my life. Miss Jessica Stones, my so-called fiancée. I scoffed at the thought.“What’s that sound for?!” She mandated and I stared at her blankly, placing my elbows on the glass table in my office which was located on the highest part of the blinding, I interlocked my hands and rested my chin on the back of my palms.“May I know the reason why you’re here, Miss Stones,” I polled.“When are you going to drop the formalities, we are getting married”

JARVIS POINT OF VIEW«ONE WEEK LATER»Seven days had passed with no sign of Levi. The police had stopped the search since there weren't any outcomes, they declared him deceased, finding nothing but his piece of clothing in the ocean.It had been two days since I discharged myself, ignoring the doctor's warning, I couldn't sit around knowing my Levi was gone, I didn't believe it, not when my heart said otherwise and here we were again, in the little village beside the ocean, where Levi's clothing was found, going around, asking whoever we saw if they had seen the man on the picture and so far, no one identified him but I didn't give up, even though I walked around with a limp. I believed Levi was still alive and I was going to find him. I didn't wish to sit around in that hospital bed and cry any further."Can we take a break?"I reele

JARVIS POINT OF VIEWI curled up my knees to my chest, disregarding the pungent pain from my thigh, rolled in a white bandage, fresh blood already drenching it, it had been only two hours since the nurse changed and it was already ruddy.Maybe because I was fretting and emphasizing it too much, dismissing the continuous warning of the doctor to keep the leg stretched, even with the red flag of disability over my head, I couldn't stop myself from toiling, fussing, fearing. I wrapped my arms around my legs, hugging them close to my chest.I could feel fear squirming through my veins, anxiety, I twitched internally. I could feel my eyes trying to flutter shut every chance they get but I struggled to keep them open, soldered to the door, waiting, anticipating it to open any time soon.It had been more than twenty-four hours already, what was taking them so long to get he
