A quiet groan left April as her eyes fluttered open to find harsh rays of sunlight streaking into the room. She raised her hand to shield her face from the lights which sort to blind her, it felt as though her head was about to split in two. She wasn’t surprised though, it was what you got for drinking so much. Her recollection of the previous night wasn’t exactly clear but she remembered enough to know that she had been a mess; she had thrown up countless times before passing out.

“You’re awake”.

She blinked a couple of times to clear her vision on hearing Micheal’s voice, she knew he was walking towards her from the sound of advancing footsteps and she suddenly felt like melting. She had made a complete and absolute fool out of herself yesterday, just thinking about it made her want to choke herself. She lowered her hand when her eyes became accustomed to the lights and her somewhat blurry gaze met his.

“Good morning, April”. He greeted with the faintest of smiles.

    ALEXA’S POV I had woken up to find the covers still drawn over my body which was normal because I had tossed and turned when I was asleep, however, what was different was the fact that the scent of sandalwood had been with me all night; for a moment I had thought Calan had been beside me during the night, but then I recalled that his coat had been draped over me, it probably had been why I had slept so soundly. I could tell it was a cool morning because I was still under the covers and I wasn’t even hot at all, on the contrary I felt rather cold. Nonetheless, I pushed the covers of myself and climbed out of bed slowly, and as I did his coat fell over my shoulders and like always; I felt empty. I let out a breath, it was too early for this, I had things to do, I had to prepare for the day and head out in time for my first class. With that in mind, I had pulled myself together and had headed to the bathroom to freshen up. And it wasn’t long before I was dressed and ready to head out,

    I had taken the coat with me to the dining room, and for some reason my heart pounded heavily against my chest as I made my way there; I was just returning a coat but yet I was almost breathless, yet I was almost having a heart attack. I swallowed an imaginary lump that had formed in my throat before I pushed the door open quietly and made my way into the dining area. I noticed the table was set but void of his presence, and for some reason I begun feeling really nervous and anxious as all thoughts crossed my mind. What if he wasn’t here because he wasn’t coming? And what if he wasn’t coming because he thought he was making me uncomfortable. I was probably overthinking the whole thing but I very well couldn’t help it, I couldn’t help a lot of things these days. And just as I turned around to leave I bumped into something….or someone, I bumped into him and his hand went around me to keep me from losing my balance. I’m glad he had done that cause my heart almost leapt out of my mou

    Third person's POV It wasn't like April wasnt used to drinking, it was just that she was the worst there was with alcohol, and one would think that she would learn from the excruciating hangovers but she just didn't, perhaps she would have gotten drunk if she had. It was well into the day now and it was safe to say that she still felt like shit. But of course, that didn't stop her from going out with Micheal, death wad probably the only thing that would stop her from going with him, and even if she was dead she'd probably still be with him in spirit. "We can go tomorrow if you still don't feel Alright". Micheal had said to her. It wasnt hard to notice that she wasn't quite herself; her head hurt terrebly and she kept on flinching from the slightest noise or contact, and not to mention the fact that she was slightly feverish and weakened from all the throwing up. She had shook the very head that ached her quickly and had told him sne wouldn't wait till tomorrow, she couldn't.

    Alexa's POV How long had it been since I reumed classes? Nothing more than two weeks for sure, but yet it felt like forever. And what made it worse was mistakenly hearing two professors discussing about 'The President's' resumption; I guess I had somehow forgotten that resuming classes meant meeting Michael one way or another. My heart had fallen to the pit of my stomach and I had felt fairly sick to be honest, and till now my heart still faltered considerably. We had Philosophy class in ten minutes and Michael always took that particular course, I had asked him why he still had to teach when he obviously had so much to do. His reply had been simple: 'I wouldn't be heading A University if I didn't like teaching'. I had admired him for that, I still did, I liked the passion in which he taught with, I liked how dedicated he was towards making sure the lesson was understood. I found myself shifting in my seat over and over again as I waited for the ten minutes to elapse. If Mich

    ALEXA'S POV On getting back home, Mildred had told me that Calan had returned earlier and she was worried he was feeling too well because he had looked tired. "You know how he can be, he insists that's he's fine". She had said. I could tell from the look in her eyes that she was so very worried about him. And her worry was contagious, I became just as worried as her or even more so, but I had to control myself, had to hold myself together so I didn't panic. I had asked where he was and she had told me he was up in his room taking a nap. Of course I had rushed upstairs, freshened up quickly and had headed to his room as fast as I could. I had knocked but as expected there was no response, so I opened the door as quietly as I could. I felt like I was sneaking around but I couldn't help it, I just needed to be sure That he was alright, plus it was the right thing to do. I made my way into the room slowly, all the while my heart pounded against my chest erratically; for a moment I

    Don't stop..... Those words had hung thickly between the two as they stared into each other's eyes while Alexa panted heavily with every breath she took. Calan thought it through for a moment; why had he even started this in the first place? Probably because he felt horrible about all she had been through and all she had missed and wouldn't have by being with or, or perhaps it was due to the fact that her innocence was just so tempting, so inviting, so appealing. Perhaps it was because the proximity had done a thing or two to the both of them, perhaps he simply wanted to; no excuses and explanations needed. But had he intended to take it farther? He wasn't sure, all he knew was that the look in her eyes were so very alluring, be couldn't bring himself to look away for the life of him. There was something tempting about her, something that drew him in; he had been with women, yes, but she was different, perhaps it was her innocence and inexperience, perhaps it was her naivety and ho

    Third person's POV A shuddering breath let her parted lips as he said those words, she stared up as hr eyes stung with tears; of course, he had been with others, she was obviously just one of the many he'd been with, and though the thought hurt she couldnt bring herself to feel any level of shame, not at the moment at least. She blinked the tears back and forced herself to nod. Calan let out a breath before releasing his hold on her wrist. He had seen the tears in her eyes, had seen the sad fleeting expression of sadness. "I will not restrain your hands if you're uncomfortable". He said though he knee it wasn't just that. She shook her head. "Are you uncomfortable with me touching your chest because of the scars?". She asked him quietly. And he nodded. "Don't they bother you?". He asked her. Touching them didn't bother her,but she was sure that she'd eventually break down if she had to think of all the pain he'd been through. "Not in the way you think". She croaked quietly.

    ALEXA'S POV The previous night had been well spent,yes, and the morning, but after everything there was still reality which I had to fall back too; Calan had to leave for the office and I had to ready myself and head to classes in spite of the dull ache in my abdomen. I didnt even consider it an ache really, cause anytime I felt it I couldn't help but recall the happenings of last night, I couldn't help but recall how I had screamed, how I had shut my eyes and thrown my head back in complete and absolute pleasure. It had been better than the last time, and I couldn't help but wonder if the next time would be even better. I was out in sitting in the shade of an apple tree on my own when Sasha and Rayne joined me, and it was only then I realized I needed some company, I had been thinking about the exact same thing all day and I was afraid I'd get hurt from over thinking it all. I needed a change of thought, I needed something else on my mind. "Hello Mrs. Billionaire". Sasha greeted

    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
