And after a moment of just sitting and crying quietly, Layla decided to pull herself together, she dried her eyes and dragged in a deep breath to calm herself before she spoke again. “Truly Calan, I feel sorry for your wife, the poor thing doesn’t know what she’s gotten herself into”. She said to him. Calan merely shook his head. “We’ve been married for two years, you really think she doesn’t know what she’s gotten into?”. He asked her. And a humorless chuckle left her. “She will, just give her three more years”. She said. “She has no idea just how much you can rip a girl’s heart out, just how much you can render a person useless to themselves”. “Will you ever forgive me?”. He asked her. And she shook her head almost immediately. “I don’t quite think so”. She replied quietly. “You ruined me to the point that being with another man makes me feel weird, to the point that another man’s touch just isn’t satisfying”. Calan averted his gaze from hers. He knew he had hurt her by
Alexa’s POVIt had been a long day; it was bad enough that I had been sad all day, and the fact that classes just had to be more exhausting made it even worse. It was October and the school had been abuzz with the whole Halloween parties and all, and I probably would have been excited to throw my own party if my mood wasn’t so horrible. Not to talk about the fact that everyone kept staring at me while whispering about how good Layla looked with Calan and all, it had bothered me so much that for a moment I had just gone to the restroom and locked myself in a stall, and I had cried, I had let my tears flow freely till everything became numb and blurry, and I had wiped my eyes, washes my face and tried to appear natural.I was certain I would be able to deceive everyone, or at least I was certain no one would care enough to bother me about it, but then came Micheal’s class and we had made eye contact though I had sat at the far end of the lecture hall, it was almost as though he could
“Are you alright ma’am?”. Ralph had asked me as he opened the door for me to go in.I guess it was that obvious that I had been crying, or at least that I had been having a rather shitty day. I pulled on the best smile I could muster and nodded.“I’m fine, thank you”. I replied quietly.I got into the car and sat quietly as he closed the door and hurried back to the driver’s seat. The drive was rather quick since I had shut my eyes and leaned my head against the headrest throughout the drive, it seems I had been almost falling asleep cause I had no idea when the car had stopped or when Ralph had gotten out and opened the door for me.“We’re her, Ma’am”. He said to get my attention. And my eyes fluttered open quickly. I nodded.“Thank you, I must have fallen asleep”. I said quietly.He shook his head and offered me a kind smile, one which I could tell was genuine from the way his eyes warmed up. I tried to return his smile but probably ended up looking as miserable as I felt. I s
Alexa’s POVThe kiss was intense and thorough, but something about was comforting, something in the way his fingers massaged the back of my head made me want to let out a faint sigh of relief, something about the way his other hand wound around my waist securely made me feel….safe; sheltered from all the eyes and whispers, sheltered from everything. He backed away slightly and I thought that was it but his hands suddenly went around me and the next thing I knew he had swept me off my feet and scooped me into his arms, all the while my chest heaved heavily and tears continued to streak down my cheeks. I stared up at his face as he began walking, however, he didn’t meet my gaze, not until I felt myself being lowered gently.“When I’m done with you what people say won’t matter to you anymore”. He said to me. My cheeks heated up at his words as did the pit of my stomach. And once I was lying on the bed he climbed over me and resumed his sweet assault on my lips till I was breathless, t
Third person’s POV “Shall I serve your dinner now?”. Mildred asked as the couple stepped down the stairs talking softly. After showering, Calan had asked her to go to his room while he went downstairs and ask that their dinner was brought up but she had decided to head downstairs nonetheless, after showering and sitting for a few minutes she had regain her energy enough to go downstairs and have dinner, plus she didn’t want him having to go down alone, she suddenly didn’t want to leave his side, even at home.Her cheeks suddenly heated up and she found herself unable to meet the older woman’s gaze. What if it was obvious that she had been thoroughly fucked a few minutes ago? Of course it was obvious, her neck was covered in hickeys after all. She knew they hadn’t really done anything wrong, seeing that they were married and all, but still, it still felt….awkward. “Yes please”. Calan responded. And Mildred smiled almost triumphantly. It seemed as though she had won an accolade,
THIRD PERSON’S POV Alexa lay curled up against Calan breathing softly as she slowly drifted off into a peaceful slumber. Calan brushed his fingers through her hair softly and he shut his eyes and breathed in the calming fragrance coming from her. His own eyelids were beginning to get heavy with sleep and he was glad, but then a vibration came from the nightstand as the screen of his phone lit up. He blinked to clear his vision before reaching out and picking the phone up, and he found Micheal’s message displayed on the screen.‘Gent’s Bar??’ He glanced at the time to find that it was just a few minutes past 8pm, and Micheal texting mean he was in serious need of company. He sighed and typed in a reply quickly.‘Sure. Be there shortly’. He set the phone aside and slowly disentangled himself from Alexa; he was just about to climb out of bed when she spoke quietly.“Are you going somewhere?”. She asked him sleepily. He nodded.“Yes, don’t worry about it and go back to sleep”. He to
‘You’d rather talk things out now than leave them for later’. Calan had said to him, yet he had chosen to leave them for later. Micheal had headed home after Calan insisted that he was risking his bloody life by drinking some more when he intended to drive home. And on Arriving, he had found April on the couch he had left her, and she had stood up in an attempt to walk up to him the very second he stepped in but he hadn’t given her a chance; he had simply averted his gaze from hers and walked away quietly. Of course, one would think that he’d attempt to talk things out with her by morning, when his mind was clear and when the sky outside was bright and beautiful, however, he had left without saying a word to her, apparently her accusations hurt him more than he knew. His lectures had been brief but concise today, he had even dismissed the class before the time was up, and he hadn’t even for a second thought to locate the familiar mass of red hair amongst the swarm of students, he
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
