I took a deep breath and prayed to all the angels in heaven to keep me as far away from Chris as possible today.

Because here I was, in a cute red slip on dress with my hair in a side braid and pumps in my feet, standing on the threshold of Rose's home ready to enter her b'day party.

I had a selfish wish in my head that tried to assure me stupidly that Chris might be too busy in arranging Rose's party and doing a shitload of chores that he wouldn't get enough time to give even a passing look to me. Because no matter how much I try to control the body shiver I get whenever he's around me, its futile.

And then I entered the party.

I won't say Rose's family was rich or anything but given a look to the arrangements of party, it was hard to believe that his parents worked under someone else. It was like I had entered a red carpet event that was held inside a house. The party was a full on bash.

I met Rose, the busy bee of the day when I was having my first drink. She came and pulled me in a choking hug. Thankfully I didn't die or anything. And when I pulled away from the hug, I kid you not, I swear I saw an fairytale princess in front of me. She was looking so beautiful that I had to blink to assure myself that she was indeed my best friend. I let her know my thoughts and that's when she beamed at me,

"All of these arrangements are done by Chris only this time. You see, he said he wanted to give me the gift of my b'day by arranging the whole party for me and even the dress and heels and makeup, everything is done by special artists. Isn't it amazing? I was like over the moon when I saw myself in front of the mirror and I almost fainted when I saw the arrangements. I'm so happy."

"Uh, okay..." I dragged out the word and muttered to myself, "I didn't know he earned this much money by working in an advertising company."

"Alright girlfriend", I shook out the thought of Chris from my head and said while smiling at her huge, "Let's rock the party now."

And then we rocked the party.

After having my fourth margarita I was on the verge of peeing myself. On my first margarita I saw Chris in the party in a cool denim washed jeans with a black t-shirt and jacket on top.

My eyes bugged out of sockets when I realised that I was having the thoughts of Chris naked on the top of me when his eyes landed on me. I nearly spluttered the drink out but thankfully didn't make a fool of me. I turned away from him and walked in the other direction so fast that anyone who saw me would think that my ass was on fire.

After that first margarita, other three margaritas were the result of my nervousness and in fear of accidentally running into Chris and now my vagina was bursting out beacause of the urge to pee.

I excused from Rose and other classmates of mine from the dance floor and went to relieve myself. I did my business but just as I opened the door and tried to walk out, I was pushed back inside by the hands on my waist and locked in with the body of those hands.

Those hands belonged to Chris.

Fuck!

"Hey!" I cried out and tried to walk around and open the door but before I could do that, I was pulled back by the waist and then my back was to the door and I was trapped by his hands on both sides of my head.

Jeez... he was soooooo close.

"Breath." He whispered in his oh so sexy voice.

And I didn't know I was holding it until I did as he said.

I slapped the back of my head in my head and did my best to appear strong in front of him.

"Let me go." I said in much stronger voice than I was feeling. And seriously, I was feeling proud of myself.

He just stared at me. When his stare lasted for more than three minutes, I snapped, "What?"

That's when he smiled. And trust me, it was rare when he did that. I was so dumbstruck that I kept staring at his face like a fool.

I came out of my trance when his smile took the place of seriousness and he said,

"Rose told me about your deal with that Eric dude."

My heart started thudding in my chest and I was sure that my face was red in humiliation. Because trust me, no matter whatever the situation is, it's very humiliating to appear this much weak in front of someone that you were crazy about some years ago. Maybe still are.

But instead of showing myself as weak I preferred to appear angry, "That's none of your business." I snapped.

"I respect you for what you did for your parents." He said in the same calming tone as before, "But I don't want you to be a slave of someone."

His words shocked me. Mainly because I couldn't remember the time when he took any interest in my business. Surely he was always there to save us when Rose and I did some stupidity and got into trouble but never a big fan of my personal life.

"I accepted the deal. I'm in debt of him until I repay him." My words were stronger than I was feeling in my heart. I didn't want to discuss about it, especially not with him. And I had decided, the first thing I'm gonna do after I'm out of this damn room is killing Rose. "And thanks for your concern."

His rough hand touched my cheek and his thumb started rubbing circles on my jaw lightly. This intimate type of touch was a shock to me because in the past, it was me who threw myself at him at any and every chance I could get but he never touched me. Never. I was controlling the signature full body shiver of mine and now this first secret intimate encounter with him was freaking me out.

Then he said, "You don't have to do this. I can give you the money you owe him."

Just as I tried to say something he beat me to it and said, "And yes I know you don't want to take it from me but take it and keep it until you can return it back to me. Just don't be around that jerk." His eyes flashed for a moment on the last line but then they were back to normal and he continued, "I know what he's doing to you from the past few weeks. Stop taking the shit and do as I say."

I decided, I'm definitely going to kill Rose. Fucking bestie traitor.

I took a deep breath and tried to calm the anger at the details of his knowledge of my life and said, "I appreciate your concern and thank you for the offer."

I saw a look of happiness came on his face but I decided to ignore it, "But no, thanks. It won't take long to return it to him from the earning of the shop. I will do whatever it takes to return the money to him. I signed the deal with him and I can handle it. Now if you'll excuse me then please step aside."

I could feel that he wanted to argue or say something but then he dropped the idea of doing that and stepped aside silently.

And that's when I took a dead run to my house. Don't get me wrong, I'm not arrogant but I can't run away from well and jump into a dead valley. I mean yeah, I don't like Eric but wouldn't it be a big stupidity to take money from the person I dreaded facing on every occasion? I have already made the deal, and I  refuse to go into the cycle of going into another debt to pay a debt.

I can handle the assault of Eric but Chris? Nah, nada, never. I would die from the pressure in my head.

Spare me.

    I collided with Rose in my dash. I glared at her and snapped, "We need to talk."She gave a confused look to me. I pulled her in a hug and wished her b'day once again. Then I took off out of there. Just as I opened the door, my arm was grabbed by someone. It was Chris. He pulled me out of the house and closed the door behind us."What do you need now?" I cried out.Chris gave me a look at my exasperation but shook it off and replied, "I just wanted to say that go home and think about my offer. If anytime, anytime you need me, just give me a call. Alright?" And then he gave me a 'hug'. Oh alright. Its a 'world weirdness day' today for me I guess.I gave him a nod and started walking awa

    I pushed him away from me instantly and grabbed his collar in anger."How dare you kissed me?""I wanted to shut you up." He said while smirking."I remember someone saying something like he wouldn't even spit on my face. Who was that.. oh yeah! It was you." I said in my angry rant.His face lost all his expressions at once. Instead of answering me he got out of the car, grabbed my hand and pulled me out. I staggered a little at his fast pace but when I saw ahead, I forgot about my anger and asked worriedly,"Why are we here?""Because I want." He replied shortly while literally dragging me with him towards his home.

    I woke up to the sound of something clashing against the floor and some shouting. I was still floating in my dreamland when I shot away from my bed to check if my parents were alright.But before I could reach the door, I realised that I was still at Eric's place. Another thundering sound of someone's shout poked my rising curiosity. I tiptoed outside Eric's room and stood behind a pole to listen."You don't have any right to ask me questions, mother!" Eric shouted. "You have your husband to give your attention to. You don't need to show your fake worry about me.""Eric!" His father said in a calming tone, "Don't talk to your mother like that. She is worried about you.""Fuck her worry." Eric seethed and my hand flew up to my mouth. Oh my gosh! That boy have no filter. N

    "Rest for a while." Eric said while he laid me softly on the bed.Well.. I was surprised at his actions today. He took me to the doctor and stayed in the hospital room while he checked my wound. My skin was split under my lips and my lower lip was swollen because I had sunk my front two teeth in there and pierced it. Thankfully, wound wasn't much deep so it will heal in a week or two.What thing surprised me was that when doctor gave an injection of sleep to lessen my feeling of pain, The moment I stood up from the hospital chair to go out to the car, he grabbed me by my waist and carried me to the car bridal style and then from the car to my room at flat.I was dumbfounded. And he held me so close to his chest that I could even smell his body scent. By the time we reached at the flat I was so sleepy that I couldn't

    "I will see you in a while." I smiled at one of my colleague, 'Mike'. Thank goodness, people here were not as mean as I had imagined. Whole day I did not get even a second of relief because of the workload but on the insistence of my other colleagues I went to lunch with them to a nearby restaurant so that we could know each other well. I wanted to return early so that I could get some work done and Mike insisted to accompany me. By the way Mike was like a typical boy next door type. Blonde, blue eyes, sweet talk, flirt and all, but all in all, there were good vibes coming from him. And that was enough for me let him flirt with me harmlessly while I laughed my ass off at his silly pick up lines. Just as I put my bag down and bid goodbye to Mike, my telephone started ringing.

If only I could ever tell you about the stone I've been forced to put on my heart. If only... if only I could tell you about my sorrowful life, my pain, my sadness.

We stood awkwardly for a few seconds but then I couldn't control myself and hugged her. She was so sad that even I could feel her pain through her heart.

    Chilled air was touching Chris straight in the face, numbing every pain, every bit of emotion that he had gone through in the last six months.When Eric took Misty down with him, he took Chris' soul with him. Chris was in love with Misty since the day he had seen the cute little baby come into his home in the arms of his Mom's best friend. The word love meant Misty to him.Eric had taken that with him when he fell down from that terrace and he was forever going to hate him for that. No matter if Eric's meaning of love was different than his, he couldn't forgive him. Ever.Eric was dead the second he had hit the ground. The impact was too hard.

    Misty moaned aloud in pain as she tried to sit up straight. Her eyes opened to take in a plain white room with nothing except a bed that she was laying on.She felt a hand roaming on her midriff softly. Instinctively she pushed the hand away and scrambled back quickly."You need to stop pushing me away.", Eric said with a sigh as he grabbed her again instantly in his arms."What's going on?", Misty couldn't remember a thing about what had happened and how she got here."Nothing is happening. You are back where you belong."Slowly she remembered about going with the nurse for test but nothing after that."Chris..", she whispered as she remembered the whole thing that had happened w

    When she pulled back & turned around again to look at Eric, he was standing stock still. If it wasn't for the rise and fall of his chest, she might have thought that he had stopped breathing altogether.Though his body portrayed a perfect calm composer, his eyes betrayed him. She hadn't seen such kind of emotion in him. Never. It wasn't anger or rage or pain. It was much, much more scary than that.Instead of waiting for him to say or do anything, she turned around, grabbed Chris's hand and walked out from there. To her surprise, Eric didn't follow them or say anything.Everything was blur for Misty. She felt like she was living in a hell, having to relive the nightmare again and again. Even her hand had started shaking from the terror and anger that she was feeling, and because it was clenched in Chris's, he co

    She couldn't fathom the rage that took over her senses. She gathered all of her strength and pushed him away from her."WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?" She finally shouted in anger. "Have you freaking lost your goddamn mind?"He was angry because of her refusal. His touch never burned her like it did now. She never jerked away from him like she did now. And it was hell for him, seeing the difference that had took over their relationship. His heart was burning. It has been burning since the day they broke off, and he needed her back with him to soothe that burn."What is wrong with you?" He cried out, "I'm asking you to come back where you belong. You love me and I love you, isn't that what you wanted all along?"

    Just as the clock hit 3PM, Misty knew that her day wasn't getting any better but for sure it was getting worse & worse.See, today when Chris pulled his car in front of her office to drop her off, just like everyday, he got out of the car & came around to open the door for her. And then, so not like everyday, he once again, like morning, grabbed her by the neck & kissed her on the forehead."Stop doing that!" She exclaimed, not because it didn't feel nice when someone kissed your forehead lovingly, ('cause it felt absolutely fantastic, mind you), but because being near him & having him do all the gestures that she had desired of him long ago had started to make her feel funny in the stomach.

    Misty gasped as she felt Chris's finger on the side of her lips. Her gaze darting straight into his. With somewhat hooded eyes Chris nonchantingly showed her the sauce that he had wiped from her lips with that finger. And then to her horror he put that finger in his mouth to lick off the sauce.Her face immediately got flustered. She couldn't utter even a word, just ducked her head down to pretend that there was nothing more important right now in world other than the food in her plate.Okay... This was getting way too weird now. Was there something going on in Chris's mind? His actions were completely strange to her considering he never missed any opportunity to dodge her teeny horny hands back in the days when she was crazy about him.And now? Well, per say, the case is complete opposite. Was there something reall

    Misty walked inside the office 5 minutes prior to her timing. Most of the people were already there. She went to her desk and started scrolling through today's work.As promised Chris had dropped her to the office and even offered to come up with her to settle her safely but she knew better than having Chris in the same building as Eric, leave alone the same office.He told her that he'd pick her up at the end of the day but she denied saying that she needed to pick up her things from the devil's place.And that was it. Chris's eyes started flashing dangerously at the thought of her going back to the hell hole. So without listening to her if or buts he told his decision that he'd be the one to go pick her things up, not her. But she knew better than to let Chris walk there alone. She knew that it would be like givin

    My chin jerked instantly. But gaining my composure almost instantly I said while laughing and grabbing his hand, "Shut up. Stop joking and tell me."His smirk stayed in its place, looking at me like I was no more than a fool he replied, "I'm not joking at all, Misty.""That's not funny, Eric. Seriously." My laughter had stopped entirety. What little wavering smile I had left on my face while saying this was just because I was still hoping it was all a joke. Despite understanding falling in my mind that he wasn't joking I couldn't let myself believe the words.He didn't reply. Just gave a bored expression to me like it was an everyday chore for him. My eyes were still searching his face and his eyes for an answer or one fucking trace of emotion that explained that he was just kidding. But there was nothing.
