My Hot Forbidden Neighbor 33. Dopamine
63. Dopamine- Jacob -.It was a mistake to go into my room after Dad belittled me. I wish I had gone out of the house instead. But I didn’t want to give him the satisfaction of knowing our conversation bothered me.I go into my room and try to process everything I just heard from him. His warning. Name-calling. His disdainful tone… laced with disappointment.Instances like this are not common, but when it happens, it widens the crack in our relationship a little more each time. Still, it doesn’t sting any less when I see how differently he treats me.I love June to death. But on days like this, I cannot help but envy her.
My Hot Forbidden Neighbor 34. Long-distance
- Natalie - . “Let’s start small. Ask me something..” He says, and my heart flutters with hope. But I hesitate for the first question. “Your argument at home. Was it bad?” He sighs. “Yes.. kind of… My turn. Why is your face swollen?” My eyes pop out. Is it still swollen? Fuck. “Ohh…” I wince and mumble,” I kind of cried a little… for some lame reason...” He goes quiet for a while then says, “Well, if it made you upset enough to cry, I am sure it wasn’t lame.” His words are oddly comforting. We ask short but random questions back and forth, without touching the real reason why we ended up here tonight. “Your turn.” He says. I think for a while. I have a million questions, but none seem appropriate. So I settle for the least appropriate one. “Why are you still single?” He raises his eyebrow. “I remember you told me you dated almost a year ago. That stalker girl, right?” He gives me a tight smile and nods. “So, why are you still single?” I repeat myself. He chuckles an
My Hot Forbidden Neighbor 35. PTSD
66. Two steps back - Jacob - . Ever since I met Natalie, things have been one step forward, two steps back. I had such a blissful time with her on Friday evening. Despite my worse coming out experience and argument at home. I would say it was one of the best nights of my life. We shared so much, enjoyed each other’s company, and had our first kiss. It was exhilarating. In morning, she woke me up before sunrise. “What!! It’s so early...” I told her while rubbing my eyes. She gave me a quick peck on cheek and it shooed away my drowsiness. “My dad sometimes wakes up early. I can’t risk that. Let’s go.” As she freshen up, her kiss lingered on my face and I wondered if we still need to wait a week? That blissful feeling barely lasted half an hour. As she was about to enter her house, her father opened the door. He was waiting for her. I was in the car but I saw it all happen. He gave me a stern look from his front door. It grilled holes in my head even when I was fifty yards awa
My Hot Forbidden Neighbor 36. Poison
68. Poison- Natalie -.I gotta pick a bone with West.That Jerk!As I am raging through the school corridor to find him, my head is throwing me warnings. It’s probably not a good idea. But I won’t be that weak spooked Natalie he met last Friday. This Friday he gotta see the fierce me.It’s probably none of my business. But I cannot stand this. I cannot ignore it this time. After looking for him in Library and counselor waiting room, Boy’s locker room is my next guess. It’s an odd time for him to be there, but I gotta see him now. So I go in there.Probably there will be o
My Hot Forbidden Neighbor 37. Rebel
69. Rebel- Jacob -.In the past few days, I have gotten closer to Natalie more than I expected. She has been visiting me with the excuse of games and studies. The way she was upset about her father’s reaction last week. I thought she will outright shut me down and sit in her room like a good girl. But turns out she is far from a good girl and I love it. More I talk to her, I realize she is a rebel.“All crime is legal for one hour. What do you do?” I had asked her last evening in hopes she will spill something.“Jaywalk,” she replied with glee in her eyes.“You Rebel!!” I chuckle and smack her arm.“What about you?”“hmmm… I will probably loiter beneath No Loitering sign.”That makes her giggle. She has told me many times my jokes are stupid, but I am not backing off as long as she laughs.Nowadays, it takes a sincere effort to not stare at her. Yesterday, she was wearing shorts. I couldn’t help but admire her strong runner legs. When she hugs me, I bask under the softness I feel ag
My Hot Forbidden Neighbor 38. First Date Night
70. Paparazzi- Natalie -.When I rushed out of the locker room, I was both afraid and embarrassed. I went in there to confront West. Not to get intimidated by him. Once again, he scared me off real bad. He did it intentionally this time.I was walking with my head down. Angry and frustrated. As per his logic, I am not supposed to date his friends. But apparently, he could sleep and date mine.The Audacity.What kind of fucked up logic is that?When Jacob blocked my way and demanded an answer. I was flabbergasted. It should have annoyed me. Everybody wants to dominate me.But for some reason, I found it hot.So hot.Because it was the first time Jacob had shown me this intensity. Something different from his tender nature.The idea excited me.I have been touched many times. But never with this passion before. I have kissed other boys countless times. But never with this much intensity. His demanding kiss made my knees go weak.It was unexpected. I have never kissed anyone in front o
My Hot Forbidden Neighbor 39. Patch Up
72. Patch Up - Natalie - . I was embracing myself for some sort of ‘You better be careful’ lecture from Mom and especially Dad. The whole day passed, and it never arrived. It gave me some confidence to invite Jacob into my room on Saturday evening. Just to hang out. Nothing sordid. “Keep the door open Natalie!” Dad had asked me. I did not. Jacob raised his eyebrow at me when I locked the door instead. “Pushing your limits, aren’t you?” I grinned. Then we kissed. and kissed.. and kissed... Neither of us had guts to remove even a layer of clothing. We knew Dad could knock and ask us to open the door at any time. It’s Sunday morning and Jacob is busy with his sudden team meeting. He had offered to join me for the quarter marathon when I told him I was running for the sake of participation and will run at a slower pace. “I don’t think you could run that far!” I remarked. “It’s 6.5 Miles!” “Of Course, I can. It’s only 6.5 Miles.” “You skate! You don’t run. I don’t think you
My Hot Forbidden Neighbor 40. Christmas Miracle
73. Christmas Miracle- Jacob -.Coach asked us to join at ice rink this morning. Practice notice was given last evening, out of the blue. But I know he wants to grill us.Thanks to West, our freaking captain, our team hasn’t been performing well for the coach’s satisfaction.The hell with it.Anyone can see we are playing terribly. It’s because of the invisible divide that happened a few days ago. Some teammates love the drama and take sides even when there is no point.Hockey season starts after a few weeks, two matches every month until the school session ends. I am not even sure how well West’s hand is now. If he can play by that time or not. He didn’t join us for practice last week.Coach made him sit to watch us. “Observe and suggest if the team could use better formation. Act like a captain, For God’s sake!” He had told him.West was annoyed. He probably hoped for time off from coming to practice. Too bad. But I am glad Coach was rather calm. Nobody likes him when he is in ful

My Hot Forbidden Neighbor 88. Epilogue - III
- Jacob - . “When are you coming home?” June pouts over the video call that has been going past 15 minutes. I am surprised how she finds so many things to talk about with me nowadays. Turns out Mom and dad have been breathing down her neck ever since I left for college. Now I realize maybe Mom and dad didn't exactly have any special grudge with me. They just needed someone to bicker all the time. I feel bad about June, because I know how overbearing they can be. “June, I cannot come this weekend.” I don’t have money and time! “Why!” “I am busy with studies..” “How come Norris is not busy but you are… he is going home the same weekend I am asking you to come,” she says and I frown. Yea… Sometimes I wish to switch places with Norris. Especially when I feel I am not giving Natalie proper attention. I could really use some free time. Wait a minute…. “How do you know Norris is coming home that week?” She flushers. “Uhmm… I… just know. Gotta go bye!” she says and cuts the call.
My Hot Forbidden Neighbor 87. Epilogue - II
Epilogue - II.- Natalie -.“She will probably sprinkle holy water all over in there,” Jacob quips as we walk out of my room. It makes me giggle.He is probably right.I never knew she was so devoted to her religion when I came here for a runner program last year.She is nice.. But too rigid sometimes.I try not to judge her, but she judges me all the damn time.“I wish I could rent an apartment,” I say ruefully. He hums and rubs my back.Jacob has his own Two-room apartment he shares with Norris, whereas I had nobody to share the rent. Ira and Riley wanted to stay on campus as it’s much cheaper and with travel costs in picture there was no point spending money elsewhere.We walk towards the restaurant to meet Ira and Riley for lunch. They are roommates now. I feel jealous as fuck sometimes.”How is Riley doing?”“She is good.. mostly good… She finally started seeing this guy who was following her around for the past two months,” I hope something works out for her. I am glad she is
My Hot Forbidden Neighbor 86. Epilogue
117. Epilogue—A Year Later—- Jacob -.My phone pings for the third time, and I roll my eyes. Jeez.. Have patience, girl! I pull out my phone and check it anyway. Just to be sure she doesn't have some surprising news at the last minute. My-Impatient-Girlfriend: ‘Where the hell are you?’Me: ‘Almost there… your building’s security guard is slow.’Damn Slow…I am here to see her and right now we are on a timer. According to Natalie, we only have 20 minutes left. I hate being on a timer, but I am desperate too. As soon as the guard lets me into the building, I make a run for her dorm-room.18 minutes…I have raced through this building many times. But this time I am too late. Two more minutes to see her. Time is too short today.“Oh wow! Hey Jacob…”I wince at hearing her voice. I turn and wave at Ira.“I… will see you at lunch! Bye!” I say without stopping for her.She laughs and yells at me, “I don’t think you will make it this time. "Yeah, mock me. I turn and smirk. “Oh I will, I a

116. When she went missing - Trigger Warning - Implied Rape- West -.Everything is dark and blurry…Pungent smell of blood and urine is all over the place. I can hear someone sobbing. I blink repeatedly, trying to focus. Dread sets in my heart when I realize it’s Riley.How? What happened?I know it’s her.I am trying to think and turn my head to look for her. I heard her scream.Fuck!They got hold of her… My head is throbbing as I conclude the obvious
My Hot Forbidden Neighbor 84. Make it work
115. Make it work - Jacob - . We both lay on the floor in my closet, our limbs tangled in each other. “We should go to bed… “I say, sighing heavily. “No..” She whines. “I don’t want a sore back again, Natalie.. “ We have been laying here for the past hour. She hugs me tight with determination so I cannot get up. “This is not fair! “ I grumble. “You got a nice little mattress called Jacob… What about me?” She giggles and gets up. “I have news..” she says while grabbing my T-shirt to wear. I look at her, and she drops the bombshell. “Dad asked you to join us for breakfast.” Ahh fuck… “I knew this was coming…” I sigh. I cannot keep sleeping with his daughter while avoiding him altogether. “Don’t worry…” she says in a fake sympathetic voice, “I told him not to push you around this time.” That makes me laugh, and she grins back at me. “It’s not a pleasant experience to fall on your bum.” I tell her while getting back into the room. “How would you feel if my family aske
My Hot Forbidden Neighbor 83. Present Day
–Present Day–- Natalie -.Nowadays, I spend my time with Riley as much as I can. Sometimes we style each other’s hair while watching movies. Sometimes we paint. I suck at it.Sometimes we bake. She sucks at it. I can see her mood improving a little every day. I have been convincing her to go to prom with us.“Norris would love to take you as his date.” I tell her as I realize that she is thinking about the date, or maybe West.She isn’t angry with him. Maybe she had been telling the truth all along. There was no sexual assault. It doesn’t make sense though.She shrugs. “Okay!”“Really!” My eyes widen.She laughs. “Yeah why not..”I have to make sure Norris isn’t taking anybody else.Sh*t Sh*t Sh*t!Once we exhaust all our options to pass our time, we go out cycling. I take her to the campsite by the lake, where I spent that night with Jacob. We sit there for hours and I tell her stories of college campus. I tell her about my hot coach and how Jacob was green with envy when he met
My Hot Forbidden Neighbor 82. That Day
114. That Day – Three weeks ago – - West - . When I reach home, I stiffen to realize someone is inside. Alfred is usually out at this time and doesn’t come back until late at night. I open the door carefully and see Riley sitting by the kitchen counter doing her schoolwork. She still has the keys. “You are late,” she says. I blink at her. She turns and raises her brow, expecting an answer from me. It makes me smile. “I didn’t want to come back to an empty house.” I admit. That damn call from Spain has messed up my head today. I am not sure how I am feeling exactly. “What are you doing here?” I ask as I notice a cake box, some flowers and a tiny gift sitting on the counter next to her bag. Considering the way she snapped at me in the parking lot, I am sure it’s not for me. “Bought these for Mom’s birthday… “ She says then asks after a pause, “Do you remember who else’s birthday it is today?” I sigh. She is here to pick up a fight. That day when she saw the pics… She was t
My Hot Forbidden Neighbor 81. Confused
113. Confused - West - . It’s for the first time I have ever been alone for this long. Single is the word, I guess. I tried to convince Riley, and I tried hard. But then I realized she can be God damn stubborn when she wants to be. In the next few days, a few things happened… Subtle, but enough to put me on edge and I felt it was better to leave her alone. “What happened to your girlfriend?” Caleb had asked. “None of your business!” He chuckled. “I know you guys broke up.” He shoves my personal information in my face to show me he keeps tabs on me. His tactics are getting old and have little effect on me. His requests to keep his precious packages secured in my house have increased. I have an inkling he is trying to set up a business for himself. I just hope he doesn’t drag me in his mess. “You must miss her in bed.” “Don’t push me Caleb.” I warned him. He shrugged. “If you are not dating her, I guess it’s an open pass for me-” I punched his face before he could complete his
