Do You Want To Be With Me? After a hot and fiery make out session which just ended at that, I settled comfortably in Ryan's arms in his bed. Don't ask me why I decided to go to his house instead, let's just go with it was closer and I didn't want to draw more questions from my roommates about what Ryan was to me because I didn't know either.Boss? We already crossed the line of professional relationship.Friends with benefits? Could we really say we were friends? I don't think so. We just felt comfortable telling each other things, but that friendship line hasn't been drawn yet.Lovers? I didn't think so.So, the question remained, what exactly were we?But like we said in the car, we were not bothered about tomorrow, just today. So, on the drive to his house, I messaged my friends on our group chat that I would be sleeping out today and quickly logged out before a gazillion messages came in.“I don't know anything about you either I just realized that.” I said as I lay on his chest.
I Have Never Felt This Way For Anyone, Except YouMy eyes fluttered open to the sunlight coming through the open blinds of the expansive bedroom. I blinked repeatedly trying to deduce why I wasn't in my own bedroom when I finally remembered that in a wave of passion I agreed to follow Ryan back home.I can remember him asking in my mouth when he felt me up in the car. He asked, “Want to follow me home today?” To which I was like “I don't think that would be a good idea. We might cross lines we ought not to. It might be best I just go home.” “We won't do anything I promise, just sleep.” I was about to protest and insist on going home when his hand trailed in my inner thighs. I collapsed against his body in pleasure feeling my body become a jelly against his masterful fingers and that was how I found myself saying yes.When we got to his house and came down together, I averted my eyes from the driver in embarrassment. Even though Ryan told me in the car that the man couldn't hear us,
Stop Hanging On So Tight, And See Where It Will Lead You “I'm now inclined to think that our friend enjoys sleeping over so much at Ryan's house? Do we need to start sharing the rent between both of us Rainie?” Annie, as shocking as it was, said immediately I unlocked the door with my key card. I was used to Rainie saying that because she loves teasing me to no end, but Annie, our cute Annie was always the kind one with no mean bone in her body. But now, look at her teasing me to no end. Guess when you stay with someone for a while you start picking up some of their habits.“I agree with you. Look at the time she comes into her own home, one might think well that she is now in a relationship with this person she spends the night with every now and then.” Rainie chirped happily like a bird. I knew she was enjoying this way too much.“Guys, it was twice, stop exaggerating.” I felt the need to point out to them because they were about to set sail the notion that I slept at his house con
You Set Yourself Up Violet “And what are you doing here?” Ryan asked Sharron immediately we both entered the office. He was on a biege two-piece travel wear that looked so good against his skin. On other days I would have admired it on him, but this was not every other day because right behind me was a trouble I couldn't say no to- Sharron.“Ryan, why that question? Aren't you happy to see me?" She asked in a hurt tone and lowered her lashes in what she hoped conveyed cute. I almost rolled my eyes at it because I wished I could tell her that she doesn't need to do all those things to win people over to her side or make them pity her because she could convince them by her words. But then again, not my place to tell. “We saw yesterday, didn't we?” He questioned her before his gaze averted to her pink box she had beside her.“And that is for what? Are you traveling somewhere and you decided to drop by to say hi?” He asked.She shook her head with a big grin and said, “No, silly. I am c
Never Wanted The Professionalism To Be This Way.“I call dibs on the chair beside you.” Sharron announced immediately we got inside the plane. Okay, why did she have to say it like I was going to fight for it? I mean, I have basically been conceding to all her request.“No, I need to have a meeting with Violet. You can sit on the other side.” He told her in a tone of finality and settled on his own seat.I looked at her, and she gave me a pleading stare. I looked at Ryan and he was looking at the exchange, before looking at me and raising his right brow up. I could never do that no matter how hard I tried. What a show-off, I thought to myself.“Yes, Violet. Are you going to take your seat or should I perform an act for you to sit?" He asked in an ice-cold tone that I haven't heard in a while.I quickly settled in and strapped my seatbelt in.He pulled closer and whispered, “You seem to enjoy going against me, don't you?"To this I shook my head because honestly, that wasn't the case.
What Sort of Game Were We Playing?I woke up to someone shaking me lightly, I opened my eyes slowly to take in my surroundings. For the first time my tears were enough to put me to sleep and I didn't need any sleep inducing tablets to put at bay my anxiety of flying sometimes. All thanks to Ryan's cold shoulder treatment.I looked at myself and noticed that no longer was the blanket covering my head. Instead I was well tucked in with a pillow above my head and my seat stretched out to form a bed. That wasn't all, my feet had compression socks on them and my heart leaped in joy that despite Ryan's cold shoulder he still cared. That means I still have an opportunity to make amends. I turned excitedly to tell him thank you when my eyes landed on the socks still where I left it and he was no longer by my side. Instead, he was with Sharron and they were chatting animatedly about something. He was so focused on what she was saying that he didn't even notice when her eyes strayed in my direc
All Is Fair In Love And War“So, virgin, huh?" She asked bumping into my shoulder lightly as we got down from the airplane and headed to the car parked afar that had a chauffeur holding Ryan's name on a board.Ryan was a few steps away, so, when she asked me that, I just bent my head shyly, reluctant to answer the question.She noticed my hesitance and possibly thought I was embarrassed to answer the question and not I was embarrassed for him to hear.So she said, “Sorry I am acting this way but I lost my V card when I was fifteen because everyone in my circle already lost theirs and they were like it was no big deal, which now I am looking back at it, I wish I didn't listen to them or let anyone pressure me. That was such a huge step and I lost it to someone who didn't even know the right hole to put it,” She grumbled.I let out a chuckle at this point.“Honestly, it's funny now, but then it was cringe. Do you know he suggested using a torchlight to find where my hole was where we we
Trails Of A Broken Heart“Zurich is so beautiful which is why it remains one of my top vacationing spot everytime. See how it's beautiful at night, imagine in the day? It is beyond magnificent.” Sharron declared, putting out her hands out and spinning in joy as we walked to the hotel room. I was about to tell her to be careful since she was on heels, but, she was so graceful on them that I watched in amazement. Don't get me wrong and assume that I was a klutz, it's just that these days I was clumsy that I have come to the conclusion that a huge part of my recent clumsiness comes with being around Ryan. He makes me nervous and jittery, as a result of that, I am constantly jumpy and never watching where I am headed. It's a whole cycle.“Where did you learn to move like that?" I asked her as she moved her legs in a mesmerizing way turning with one leg and the other on her thighs.She raised her hands in mock surrender and said, “Okay, you've caught on to my trick. Former ballerina here.”
He Was Always Mine To Begin With“Wait, was that Ryan?” Loraine's voice rang from the speaker as I stared at my husband's retreating figure. I wished he said something than looking at me with such disappointed eyes that made my heart break. “Huh-Uh.” I mumbled so that she wouldn't hear my strangled cry that threatened to escape my lips.“Oh my goodness! This is bad. Really bad! He wasn't supposed to hear like that. Where is he?” She asked.“He just left. You know what? I'll call you back okay. I need time to...” I left my statement hanging, but what I needed to do was– cry my eyes out.“Okay, no problem. And in case he is pissed at you for this, I would come clean and tell him I roped you into it.”“Bye.” I told her not able to muster anything more than that.When I hung up, that was when the reality of what just happened hit me. Ryan got to know what we've been keeping from him, but not through the way I would have preferred. He heard it per chance and that was not what I wanted. It
How Could You Hide That From Me?One thing I didn't expect when I said ‘I do’ to Ryan was the turmoil and tons of secrets his family had. I didn't know how deep his father's hate for him ran, I didn't know that his step-mother I thought he was just needlessly antagonistic towards him was actually wolf in sheep's clothing, she was the spawn of Satan herself. Looking at his father and step-mother, I was amazed how they could raise such good kids with a good head on their shoulders. Must be the work of their grandparents.I was reminiscing what Loraine told me yesterday and I still couldn't come to terms with it.“Are you sure?” I asked her withdrawing my hands from hers in shock of what I just heard.“I am almost certain and over the years I am becoming certain that what I heard that night was true. I went out dead at night to drink water, when I heard them arguing in their room and their room door was ajar. I didn't hear parts of the argument, but what I heard loud and clear was when m
And It Was The Most Beautiful Experience EverI felt his tip of his penis at the entrance of my Vagina, and I drew in a deep breath. I was finally doing it. Losing my virginity after twenty-five years, almost twenty-six years seeing as my birthday was in few weeks time. This point, it felt thrilling to finally have sex with the person I love with all my heart, and it also felt scary because I heard the first time hurts.His eyes looked hungry, but still he said, “We can still wait if you want to.”I smiled and kissed him softly on his lips. When I withdrew from the kiss, I said, “My problem is that you worry way too much. I am sure.”“Okay then.” He replied.He unwrapped my legs from his waist, and spread them apart. Then, he came closer, towering over me. He began penetrating slowly with the tip of his penis, it was at that point I winced in pain.I closed my eyes, but he said, “Hey, Mi Todo, look at me.” At his command, I opened my eyes and meet his mesmerizing ones.As he was penet
No One Gets To Talk Bad About My Mom, Not On My Watch“Gr...Grandma?” Mrs. Gia sputtered, looking at I and Ryan in shock. My husband who I could see was also looking at me, trying to deduce if I knew what I was saying or if I was suffering from hallucination?“I am almost certain you are the one. I saw your postcard growing up with the name. I think it'll be rare for someone with the same three names to exist, too much of a coincidence? No?” I gave her a pointed look.Her features started changing as realization started sinking in that she just might be the right person.“Wait, are you Xavier and Juliet's child?” She asked mentioning the names of my parents.I nodded and she gasped, and staggered a bit. Holding the table next to her as a support. “It seems like you both have some catching up to do,” My husband said and pecked me lightly on my left cheek, before pointing at a corner, “I'll be over there in case you need anything,” Then in a whisper, he said, “Saying hello to pretenti
Could She be My Grandma? “Are you okay Mi Todo? You have been frowning since we woke up.” My husband asked me as we boarded the private jet back to New York.So, here's the thing, last night as he was running a very high temperature, I tried to shake him so he could wake up, he didn't open his eyes. I am not going to lie, I basically went through the five stages of grief thinking he had gone into shock. I ran downstairs in tears, down three floors to tell the receptionist that I think my husband is dying, then we went upstairs to check, on our way to I and Ryan's room, she informed me she was an ER nurse and was covering for her cousin who works here that had a family emergency. That made me a bit more calm and when we got upstairs, she checked his temperature which had reduced drastically by the way. She said it was probably stress and he'll be fine for morning.It was at that point my dearest husband decided to open his eyes, “Mi Todo, why aren't you by my side?” In a weak, cute vo
I Had Never Seen Him Cry“Okay, we don't speak for some days and next thing I know is my close friend and roommate has gotten married to a billionaire in a ‘low-profile’ ceremony in Vegas? She didn't see the need to say something like ‘Hey guys, I know you might be busy with life, but I am getting married?’ V, I have to say this is ludicrous and I am still trying to comprehend it?” Rainie said.I slowly disentangled myself from my husband arms, there was barely a moment we were in bed together and we weren't cuddling. It was an extreme sport, but I finally succeeded without waking him up.I tiptoed to the bathroom and continued my call with my friends.“Firstly, guys, I know no matter what I explain, it would never be a reasonable excuse why I didn't tell you both earlier. I am really sorry and truly everything happened so quickly, that before I could understand what was happening, we were married.” I explained to them hoping that it would soothe the rage I could see in their eyes.“I
I Said Yes To Eternity.“So, I got an Elvis Presley Chapel booked for the wedding tomorrow. Do you want to maybe go dress shopping today?” Ryan asked me as we lay on the bed ticking off things we needed for our wedding tomorrow. I was getting married tomorrow? It still felt surreal that hours back I said a yes to his proposal. I wanted to tell my friends, but in all honesty, I still felt like i needed a minute to understand the huge step I was taking tomorrow. I'll probably call them in the morning before I leave to the Chapel and tell them of my bold step and get their blessings. The truth was we actually just wanted to have something small. This was more of a promise to ourselves, than an actual wedding. “With the speed at which you are doing all these things, you were certain I was going to say yes, right? You probably had the contract or something?” I teased him. He was indeed moving with speed that it made me a tad bit suspicious that he just started this arrangement. I suspecte
I Must Be CrazyI burst into laughter, placing my ice cream sandwich on the empty space by my side which was already melting in my hands and making it sticky. Of all the jokes that my boyfriend has attempted to make, this was by far the funniest.“Oh, my goodness. That was such a funny joke. You are getting the hang of this emotions thing.” I hit his chest lightly with traces of laughter on my lips and attempted to pick up my ice-cream sandwich again. Vegas must be getting to him for him to play this kind of joke. I heard that being in Vegas often makes one act out of the ordinary. Coupled with the fact that he was still getting a hang of these emotions thing. He must be like a kid at an ice-cream parlour for the first time wanting to try out all the flavors.“I am not joking.” He said. I was about taking a bite of my ice-cream sandwich which half was already melted by the way when his voice stopped me short.“A prank, maybe?” I asked with hopeful eyes in light that though this might
Marry Me“A problem?” Ryan asked, coming off the bed. Whatever impending make out session suspended till when he might be able to deduce what had happened or is happening to turn out to be a problem.“Yes, it's Dad.” She said and I could hear the fear in her voice.At that point Ryan removed the phone from speaker and told his sister, “Give me a minute.” Then he turned to me and said, “Give me a moment, let me know what the problem is.”“No problem, take your time.” I said, managing a smile. The truth was that Ryan's father annoyed me and that is not because of the time he hit on me in Ryan's office, which was quite shameless of him by the way. But, the reason why he annoyed me to no end was because he didn't support Ryan as the CEO, and rather than just mind his flipping business, he found more ways to make Ryan's life incessantly difficult. From riling up the press against Ryan to finding ways to siphon money and frame Ryan for being an incompetent CEO. My boyfriend, God bless his h
