Third person’s POV

On getting into Fooders and interacting a bit, they realized that a lot had changed, not just the staff but the owner as well, but that aside; it was still the same. It still had the warmth and the softness that just felt so very homey, and Alexa found herself almost choking on the nostalgia that overtook her once more.

“The food still tastes the same”. Calan said and she nodded agreeingly.

How long had it been? Two years? Three? It was good to know that the new owner of the place was still upholding the honor of its name.

“I hope the pastries haven’t changed either”. She said while grinning.

He nodded. He had always been more inclined towards the donuts and coffee they served here and he truly did hope they hadn’t changed.

“Let’s get some on our way out so we can find out”. He said to her.

She nodded once more.

“I’ll get the croissants”. She said. “You’re getting the donuts still?”.

He smiled and leaned back into his seat.

“You still remember”. He said.

    ALEXA’S POINT OF VIEWBreathless? Overwhelmed? Dazed? I wasn’t quite sure what I was at the moment, all I knew was that I found myself completely and absolutely unable to think or utter a coherent word. I felt like I would explode, felt like my heart would go flying out of my mouth if I tried to scream any more than I already had.“Open your eyes”. Calan said to me just as he hit a part in me so very deep and blissful.I forced my eyes open and I stared up at him resignedly. His lips curved in a dark smirk and he leaned down to capture my lips in a deep kiss which I barely responded to, how could I respond when the pleasure sought to drive me to insanity?My eyes were all teary and my skin was clammy from having spent….an hour? I wasn’t even sure how long we had spent but all I knew was that I didn’t want it to come to an end.“My God….”. I moaned breathlessly.I once again found myself trying to free my hands from the restraints I found them in; I had somehow mentioned being tied and

    Alexa’s POVIt had started out as a beautiful day; I had pulled myself together, showered and had breakfast with Calan. We had talked about random stuff and he had decided that the weather was lovely, perfect for a drive around town and I had been more than happy to go for a drive.We had stopped by quite a number of places; the mall, a café, even a bookshop. And for the first time in a very long time I had felt free, I had felt light and alive. I had suddenly felt young and vibrant and I couldn’t seem to wipe off my smile; he had taken my hand as we walked around the mall and he had insisted that I take quite a number of things I didn’t need. And at the bookstore, I had been trying to reach for a book at the top column of the shelf and he had simply reached out from behind me and lowered the book for me. It had been like a scene from the movies, a rather cliché scene from the movies but I didn’t mind. I had felt like melting against him and of course I had begun blushing intensely.

    We had even gotten flowers; a beautiful bouquet of variety of flowers which smelled heavenly a bouquet elegant white roses and also that of vibrant red roses. I loved them all. And at the bookstore, I had been trying to reach for a book at the top column of the shelf and he had simply reached out from behind me and lowered the book for me. It had been like a scene from the movies, a rather cliché scene from the movies but I didn’t mind. I had felt like melting against him and of course I had begun blushing intensely. And after all that, he had said there was one more place we needed to go. And as we pulled up in front of the large wrought iron gate of the cemetery, I knew what exactly it was we were doing here, and the thought alone had tears welling up in my eyes rapidly.“We should have come here sooner”. He said as he helped me out of the car. It was evening now and the breeze was getting chilly but he draped his arm around me and held me close to himself so I didn’t get cold.

  • Sinful Attraction:My Billionaire Husband And His Best Friend   NINETY THREE

    THIRD PERSON’S POV There had been a lot of tenderness between Calan and Alexa back at the cemetery, and now that they were back home, neither knew what to make of the somewhat awkward situation they found themselves in. Alexa had been sure he had been so kind and endearing to her because he had wanted to stop her from crying and all, but then, she couldn’t help but wonder if there was more to it. But what if it had simply been as a result of the moment of weakness? There was that, and there was also the fact that she was overthinking things like always. And then there was Calan who found he was also conflicted on making sense of what had happened earlier. He had wanted to comfort her; obviously, she been in so much discomfort, she had been hurting so much, and it had bothered him to the point that he had wanted to do all he could to just make the pain go away, he had wanted to tell her everything she needed to hear to make her feel better; he had wanted to be everything she needed

    THIRD PERSON’S POV“Well there’s still time to think about where you’d like to go”. He said. “Continuous assessments are starting soon, aren’t they?”. She nodded.“Great, and soon enough there’ll be the end of semester exams”. He said. “And then the break. I’m sure you would have decided by then”. She let out a breath before nodding once more. She felt a bit better now; there was no rush, no pressure, it was all good. She let out a breath she didn’t know she had been holding.“Come on, have your dinner and get some rest”. He said to her.She nodded simply.“You’ll eat too, right?”. She asked him.He let out a resigned breath before picking up his fork.“I will”. He said. “You worry too much”. She was aware of that, yet she found she couldn’t do anything about it. ~~ The weekend had come and gone, and Alexa once again found herself stepping out of the car and into the parking space of Greyman’s College. It had rained a lot the previous night and the grounds were still wet, it w

    Third Person’s POV Alexa sat quietly in the security office while waiting for Calan to arrive, Layla had also been called as well, and it was said that Micheal would be here soon. It was turning out to be more of a personal affair really; Rayne and Sasha sensed it so they left after assuring her that everything would be alright.She stared blankly at her feet as she thought back at all Leela had said. Her throat constricted all over again and tears blurred her vision. She knew that Leela had just been trying to spite her, but the fact that she had so blatantly implied that she was sleeping with Micheal affected her in an entirely different way.Who else thought she was sleeping with Micheal? Who else had Leela told? Did everyone think the same? How would Calan react if he heard that? How would Micheal react? She blinked and the tears that had blurred her vision went sliding down her cheeks. She had been crying for close to fifteen minutes now; her eyes were all red and puffy, sore

    ALEXA’S POV And it was only when three of us were left in the office did Calan finally settle down beside me on the bench. He draped his arm over my shoulders and I leaned against him as more tears left my eyes. This had to be the most humiliating thing that had happened in my life; I could almost imagine his reaction when he received a call saying his attention was needed immediately because his wife had gotten into a fight with his ex’s younger sister.“It’s alright, don’t cry”. He said to her. “Do we need to go to the hospital?”. She shook her head. She just wanted to crawl under a rock and hide there till everyone forgot her name, till everyone forgot she ever existed.“Are you sure?”. He asked me.“I…I just want to go home”. I cried quietly. I was suddenly so exhausted, it was time to go home, curl myself in a corner and shut down.“Alright then”.Micheal cleared his throat quietly and we both looked up at him. He seemed just as exhausted as I was, just as drained.“I’m sorry

    Alexa's POV I fell asleep not long after Calan left my room. I know i wasnt exactly feeling better about what had happened earlier but i felt a little uplifted; i felt lighter knowing he didnt see me as a burden, i felt better knowing he actually wanted me in his future. I dont know for how long I slept for, but when i woke up i felt like i had been trampled upon by a mob of angry protesters. I had pulled myself together and gone to the bathroom to shower, and when i was finally done i headed downstairs to find Calan. I found him in his study on the phone, and because i didng want to interrupt him i stood by the door and waited. "I dont care". He was saying, his voice was low....upset. "It's not about paying a fine, Layla can take care of that, i want her sanity tested". She knew he was talking about Leela, and truly, she was tired of the whole Leela thing. "Just find a way of getting it done....". She let out a breath before stepping into the study fully to get his attention,

    Alexa's POV I had called Sasha before leaving school but she hadn't picked up, and so i had decided to head back home knowing i could always call her or go to her apartment later on. I probably looked downcast as i sat in the living room staring blankly at the tv screen cause Mildred walked up to me looking slightly worried. "Is there a problem, Mildred?". I asked her. And she shook her head. "I was going to ask you the exact same thing". She said to me. "You look rather sad". Lately it was unusual to see me was, i was always happy or at ease since i was mostly with Calan. I wasn't worried about anything except my friends and my exams. I blew out a breath. "I'm fine". I told her. "I just have a thing or two on my mind". She offered me a warm smile. "That's understandable dear". She said to me. "But do talk to someone if something worries you, it's never good to keep it in". I nodded. "Thank you so much". I said to her. She smiled once more before turning around and walking a

    Third person POV For some unknown reason, Alexa had woken up the next day feeling completely scared and unprepared for the exams. Perhaps it was due to the fact that she had been feeling too confident about the whole thing yesterday. What if she had been too confident? What if she ended up seeing question she just couldn't answer? She had even been unable to eat her break fast, she had lost her appetite and Calan had noticed. "What's the problem?". He asked her. "I dont know.....". She replied quietly. "I just dont feel prepared for the exams today". He arched a brow slightly. "You went over the whole course handout with Michael yesterday, correct?". He asked her. And she nodded. "And you understood what he taught you?". He asked. Shw nodded once more. "Then that's all that matters". He told her. "You've got this". She cleared her throat quietly. "What....what if i get confused?". She asked him. He shook his head. "Dont think about it now, dont worry about anything". He

    Alexa's POv "Why do you look this way?". Calan asked me as he draped his arm around me for a hug which i hadn't known i had needed till now. He placed a lingering kiss on my head before rubbing my back soothingly. "I'm just so tired". I told him. "That's understandable. Did The lectures go well?". He asked me. And i nodded. After my talk with micheal i had felt better, and we had even gone over the last pages. I was all done now and i had never been more confident about writing an exam. "That's good to know*. He said Against my head. "It was worth it". I nodded once more. We were in the parking lot standing leaning against the car almost lazily while the cool evening's breeze blew softly. "I missed you". He told me. And i looked up at him while my cheeks heated up slowly. "I...i missed you too". I told him. "So much". We had spent yesterday indoors in each other's company, he had helped me study and all, and then later on we had lost ourselves in each other's embrace.

    Alexa's Point of view How long had it been? Two hours? Three? More? I had lost track during the course of the lesson, and though i was actually understanding Micheal's lectures, i couldn't help but feel really exhausted. I leaned into my seat tiredly and let out a breath as i tried to focus on what he was saying. The fact that i had been sitting in the same spot for more than three hours now didnt help at all, my body felt stiff and almost numb, even my brain was beginning to protest. I hadn't thought he had meant it so much when he had said i wouldnt be leaving till he was convinced i was ready to approach tomorrow's questions. A small groan left me before i could stop myself, and his gaze flickered up to mine. He probably took in the sorry sight i made cause his eyes softened and he also leaned back into his seat. "Tired?". He asked me. And i nodded immediately. He heaved a sigh before rubbing his temple wearily. "Fair enough, we've been on it for some time now". He sa

    Alexa's perspective Examinations had started and to say i was stressed out would be an understatement. All the days of skipping school and spacing out in classes where beginning to take their toll on me. I had decided to not leave immediately after i was done with my exam for the day, and so i found myself sitting in the library while trying my very best to go over some of the work Micheal had covered. I groaned almost exasperatedly. I had beenbat this for hours and i still wasn't getting it right, i was beginning to lose my mind now. I was even beginning to think i was losing my mind. The words on the pages were getting all jumbled up and my eyes were getting sore from having stared at the page for so long. I blew out a breath before shaking my head. I would find someone to explain it to me but of course, i had no one. Sasha and Raymond weren't taking the course and so they couldn't help me, and it truly would be embarrassing to me if i failed Micheal's course. My gaze snapped

    Third person POV April woke up to the feel of Micheal's fingers combing through her hair tenderly. Her eyes fluttered open and she found him right where he had been before she had fallen asleep, and she took a moment to just stare at him, took a moment to realize that her stomach wasnt killing her anymore. "You're awake". He said to her. She nodded. "You stayed". She said quietly. "Of course". He replied. "Are you feeling better?". "Yeah. Thank you". She replied. He smiled. "That's good to know". He told her. "I was begining to lose my mind". And a faint smile curved her own lips. "I guess we had that in common". She said quietly. He combed his fingers through her hair once more. "Why dont you ever go to the hospital?". He asked her, he was rather serious now. "I hate hospitals". She replied simply. He shook his head. "I do not wish for a next time, but if there is to be one....we're going to the hospital". He told her. She shook her head. "There's no need". She to

    Third person's POV How long had it been since she went upstairs? A few hours, and if she wasnt asleep then it was very unlike her to not have come to him. And so, Micheal had decided to go upstairs and check up on her. Of course he had been surprised to see her curled in the middle of the bed looking all disheveled and pained, even the sheets were disheveled. He had hurried to her at once and gathered her into his arms. "Hey". He said as he brushed her hair from her hair softly. "What's wrong?". For a moment he feared she was having an emotional breakdown or something, giving all that had been happening lately. And on seeing the tears streaming down her cheeks, he became even more alarmed. "Cramps". She told him quietly. His eyes widened slightly and he once again brushed her hair from her face. "What can i do to help?". He asked her. A shuddering breath left April and she held onto his arms tightly. She let the fraagrance of sandal wood soothe her. "Hold on to me...".

    Third person's POV Cramps.... April had seen the cramps coming, she had known it would be a shitty day ahead. What she hadn't known however was that it would be painful and teary. After breakfast, she had gone up to her room to get some sleep while Micheal had retired to his study to tend to a thing or two. It had started out well, she had managed to numb her thoughts and had even managed to fall asleep. However, she had woken up to the a dull but rather disturbing pain in her stomach. She had assumed it wouldn't get worse, she had assumed it wouldn't intensify and cause her to break down completely. But soon enough she founs herself clutching her stomach while curling herself up in a ball on her bed as tears streaked down her cheeks again and again. It had actually been a while since she had experienced so much pain during her period, it took her back to her days in college. Days in which she'd lie and cry within the walls off her apartment; being a person who didn't have actu

    Third person's pov April woke up to the all to familiar feeling of wet warmth pooling in her panties. Her eyes widened as all sleepiness left her. She hastily pushed the cover off her body and climbed out of bed hoping she hadnt made a mess on the sheets.....on Micheal's sheets. The dull light barely penetrating the curtains told her that the sun was just beginning to rise; it meant she had a long day ahead of her, a long day with cramps and moodswings, a long day of being aware of the fact that.....she wasn't pregnant. Micheal's eyes fluttered open slowly on hearing the rustling of silks as April quickly slid on the robe of her night dress. "April? Is there a problem?". He asked her while blinking a couple of times to get rid of the sleepiness. She spun around to face him at once. "I...i need to go to my room". She told him. "Sorry i woke you". He shook his head. "Why are you in such a hurry though?". He asked her. How could she not be in a hurry when she feel the blood no
