Third person's point of view 'Are those.....Hickey's?' 'You think her husband saw them?''.....you think he put them there?' Alexa kept her head down as she kept on walking, she tried her very best to ignore the whispers and focus on where she was going. In every honesty she wasn't even sure where she was going, her next class was in an hour and she couldn't stay behind at the lecture hall because Micheal had been there. One would think that the talk they had the other day would have made things better between them but it truly hasn't, perhaps it had made things even more awkward. And of course things would have been even more awkward if he had seen her with her hair up and her neck all subtly painted red, he might as well think she was mocking him. Calan had told her not to cover his marks on her neck and she had listened, she hadn't intended to conceal them with any make up, but then he had gone ahead to request that she wore her hair up today. "But....everyone will stare". S
ALEXA’S POVLike yesterday, I got home just when Calan returned as well, but today was different because I didn’t offer him a stiff smile and run off. I stood there waiting for him, all the while trying my very best to not let my cheeks flame; seeing him suddenly reminded me of the happenings of yesterday’s evening. I stood there awkwardly shuffling from one foot to the other till he finally got to me. “Hey”. He said as he leaned in and planted a light kiss on my head before draping his arms around me for a brief hug. That was all it took to get me blushing bright red. “Hi”. I responded quietly.“You still have your hair up”. He said as he backed away and looked down at my face, he sounded impressed.“Yes, I let it be ‘cause you wanted it this way”. I told him. He smiled and his eyes lit up subtly.“I’m proud of you. Come; let’s go inside, it’s rather chilly out here”. He said. And I smiled and nodded.He took my hand and led me into the house and I couldn’t help but feel my che
Third person’s POV It was all good now, they had made peace, yet April couldn’t help but notice that no matter how hard she tried to get Micheal to touch her, he wouldn’t. She had been seated by his side pressing her lush bosom against him and purring quietly to get him to indulge her but he had simply smiled and planted a tender kiss on her head, all the while his gaze remained glued to the book he had been reading.Of course she knew this had something to do with what she had stupidly said and she so desperately wanted to put this behind her for good, behind them.“Why won’t you touch me?”. She asked him quietly. His gaze flickered to hers and he arched a brow slightly.“My hand is draped over you at the moment”. He replied. “You don’t consider that touching?”. She pressed herself further against him and his gaze involuntarily flickered from her face to her lush bosom briefly and then back to her face.“You know what I mean”. She said quietly.He leaned in and placed a lingering
Third person’s POV The school was abuzz with the news of Sasha dumping her drink on Leela, of course stuff like that happened almost every day but, but what made this one scandalously different was because Sasha had been seated with Alexa, and Leela was Alexa’s husband’s ex’s younger sister! It was crazy and it was all everyone could talk about. Alexa had been right to be unsettled about the situation because she was sent an email that her attention was needed at Micheal’s office immediately she was done with the class she was in. Her heart had pounded so very heavily as she made her way to the office; it was bad enough that she hadn’t been to the office in forever and it would feel awkward being there all of a sudden, and the fact that she was being formally summoned didn’t make matters any easier. She pulled on the best smile she could on getting to his secretary’s desk, the beautiful brunette lady smiled at her warmly on seeing her.“Hello Alexa, it’s been a while I saw you
Third person’s POV A slight frown creased Calan’s temple as he digested what Micheal had told him. Once again, they stood in the parking lot while Calan waited for Alexa who had no idea he was here. Micheal had called him earlier saying he had something to tell him and he had decided to stop by. Both men stood conversing about the matter at hand, and to say Calan was displeased would be an understatement.“I don’t remember Leela to be quite the brat”. He said as he thought back to the young and shy girl he remembered her to be.“Unfortunate, she grew up to be a brat”. Micheal said as he leaned back against his car. “A brat who could have easily bullied your wife had her friend not stood up for her”. He was probably adding fuel to the fire but he truly didn’t care, not when Alexa was involved.Calan’s eyes darkened considerably as he thought about it; the fact that Alexa had told him nothing of it was what upset him even more.“So Layla called to tell you that Alexa and her friends h
Alexa’s POVMy heart pounded heavily as sat there fiddling with the smooth fabric of my silk blouse, I found myself being extremely anxious about the talk we were going to have when we got home. And the fact that he was actually upset made me even more anxious, we had had several talks, yes, but he had never been upset, however, at the moment his jaw was clenched and his brows were creased ever so slightly.“Don’t be mad at me….”. I said quietly, so quietly that I thought he wouldn’t hear me. He inclined his head to face me briefly before returning his gaze to the road ahead. “I’m not mad at you”. He said.“You are”. I said quietly. He shook his head.“I’m just upset at the fact that I had to receive a call from Micheal informing me that you and your friends had a misunderstanding with Layla’s younger sister”. He said.“I didn’t want to have a misunderstanding with her…..”. I tried to explain.“I don’t care about the misunderstanding; I just care about the fact that I didn’t hear
Third person’s POV He had a lot on his mind, there was so much he wanted to say, yet he found he couldn’t say them without confusing himself more, without making the situation irrefutably awkward. He wanted to talk about the fact that she never laughed when she was around him yet she so easily laughed with that boy earlier, he wanted to tell her that he was very much willing to severe his ties with Layla just so she would be okay. But why? Why was he so bothered by it all? Why was he so upset? He stared down at her, stared down at her face, her slightly parted lips an unintentional invite on her part. His gaze returned to her teary eyes momentarily before he found himself leaning in and capturing her lips in a fierce kiss. He poured out all the frustration within, poured out all the confusion, poured out everything. He kissed her with so much possessiveness that he never wanted to let go of her at the moment, he kissed her until she was breathless and panting. And when he fina
Alexa’s POV ‘Honestly, I’d like you to get on my lap’. His words hung deeply between us, I sat there breathing heavily as I tried my possible best to muster up the courage and confidence to actually get out of my seat and get on his lap. I swallowed and forced the lump that had formed in my throat down, all the while I continued to clench my thighs to put some much needed pressure ‘there’. ‘Come on, Alexa, you can do this’. I said to myself. ‘You can do this’. I dragged in a deep and shuddering breath before slowly pushing my seat back and getting on my feet. I could feel his gaze on me as he watched my every mood, and knowing that he was watching me only made me for nervous, made me more…shy. I inched closer to him and I was glad that he put me out of my misery by taking my wrist and gently guiding me to straddle his lap. I kept my head down and focused my gaze on the dark buttons of his shirt, on the pale skin of his chest peeking out of the undone buttons; I loved how his s
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
