Faith’s P.O.V
Two days later, Bass drove Brandon back to his apartment while I sat next to him in the car; all the windows tinted black so that no one would know who was inside, even though it was six in the evening.
Brandon was able to walk without the help of crutches, but the plaster stayed on and he did need support to walk from time to time, but for the most part, he had recovered a lot.
The skin that had been singed off his arm was now a light pink, sometimes red, and as per the doctors, it’ll take a couple weeks before it returns to its original color, but they had promised it wouldn’t scar as long as he followed their instructions to the T.
As a model, I could only hope that he wasn’t left with any scars that could cause problems for his career. From what I’ve heard via Debby, his father had ordered his scheduled to be cleared for the next four month

His tongue ran over my bottom lip, before he sucked it into his mouth and let go with a hot, wet sound that made a shiver run down my spine.He made his way down my neck and I took the opportunity to gasp in some much needed air that my lungs were deprived of.“Brandon…” I gasped, my hands going to his hair to tangle with the cool, damp strands. “Stop.”I had to say it, even though I didn’t want to. But Brandon complied immediately, his lips stopping on the side of my neck as he pulled back to look at my face. His own breathing was more than a little ragged as he placed his hands on my waist, h

I don’t care about anything else but you. I just…I just don’t want you to get hurt.”The red marks on his hand scared me. They ran the entire length of his arm, his shoulders and even his back. What if I accidentally end up hurting him? Would his scars get worse if we…Oh, god! Why hadn't I thought of this before I told him that I wanted to have sex with him?“Brandon…I…” I lifted off the bed, ready to tell him that I changed my mind. But my words were silenced in my throat when he leaned down and captured my lips in his, making any protests I had, die down in my throat.I made a strange noise at the back of my neck when my back hit the bed once again, and Bandon climbed on top of me, using his hands on ei

The vanity was on the other side of the room and the wardrobe right next to it. I think the color scheme was blue, but with the lights down so low, I couldn’t really tell if it was actually a dark green or blue.“Ummhmmm…” Brandon made a rumbling sound in his chest, that I felt throughout my body since his chest was press

You have good eyes, babe!” She complimented Nik. “It you hadn't mentioned, I wouldn’t even have noticed it! The details are very similar!”“Indeed,” Nik continued like I wasn’t even there as the both bent over the table, placing my hand in the middle as the scrutinized the ring, while I drowned in my own perspiration. “The cross is replaced by a ribbon. Does it symbolize that you’re Bandon’s personal present?”“One that he unwraps with a lot of pleasure

Chapter 58: ‘The Talk’Faith’s P.O.VSoaking in the bathtub after almost 24 hours of not showering felt like absolute heaven.The warm water seeped through my skin, making a sigh escape my lips as I stretched out in the bathtub, letting the warmth relax my sore muscles and wash away all the exhaustion.Today had been a really busy day, both for me and Brandon, so it was natural that we hardly got any time to spend with each other.Since it was his first day back at school after more than a month, he had to spend the whole day copying his notes and going around the staff room to get the teachers to help him with all the study materials that had been handed out during his absence. At least that’s what Sagar explained to us during lunch hours.Since Brandon’s dad was one of the University’s trustees…I highly doubted that he had to work that hard. But since his leg wasn’t completely healed, so I guess it was one of the reasons why he didn’t show up at lunch and rather had Cole and Sagar

But I just wanted to make sure that you were sure you wanted him to meet your aunt and George.”I looked up at Debby confused as she brought her car to park at the University parking lot. “What do you mean?”“Brandon isn’t the type of type of guy that girls take to ‘meet their parents’.” Debby sighed. “He’s the type of guys that parents warn their daughters about. The dark and the dangerous kinda guy who make the father’s hide their daughters and run to the police for a restraining order.”“Come on, you’re exaggerating.” I frowned. “Brandon isn’t like that!”

Every fucking professor seems to be enjoying my misery right now.”I had been gone for a month! One bloody month! ...and 4 days, but that’s not the point!I was injured and fighting for my life at the hospital, but since my broken leg is all that anyone can see, everyone thinks that Brandon Wolfram is back to his old ways and since then, the assignments have been piling up high as if the professors are trying to punish me as if I had committed some kind of crime against them!Seriously! This was too much!No one knew what actually happened but people have been giving me looks as if I got exactly what I deserved…which…I

The cool metal fell around my neck easily, and a sense of nostalgia overwhelmed me as I remembered my mother wearing it all the time.But I wasn’t allowed to dwell on the nostalgia for long since I felt his warm breath fanning my skin before I felt him lean down and place a tender kiss on my shoulder.“I didn’t want to give back the pendant…because when you weren’t with me, when we weren’t together, this was the only thing that connected me to you.” He whispered against my ear, his arms coming around me to wrap around my middle. “I threw it away once…when I thought you were too good to be with me, that I didn’t want to taint you with my darkness…and it was right here, at this very beach.

Exams are over!” Nik threw her hands up in the air as she did a little ‘happy dance’ before turning to Debby and me. “Let’s go out this evening!”“Go out? Where?” I asked, raising my eyebrows skeptically.Usually, Nik’s idea of going out wasn’t the best of plans. The last time we went out together, not only did she get the wrong address, but we were thrown out of the club since none of us had fake IDs and we weren’t allowed in unless we were twenty one.Now, I watched as Debby nodded enthusiastically to Nik’s proposal, ever the supportive girlfriend…even though I was starting to worry about what trouble they were going to get into this time.“Leave me out.” I sighed, walking down the stairs to join them at the courtyard. “I’ll be heading home first.”“Why? Do you have plans already?” Debby smirked with a knowing look in her eyes.“I do.” I nodded, laughing at her expression. “Brandon asked me out on a date.”“Oh! Really!” Nik looked a

Just heard the reception discussing that.” He came forwards to stand beside the bed, where I sat already dressed in casual clothing, ready for the nurses to take me out as soon as Brandon was done with the paperwork. “How are you? Bran told me everything…about what happened yesterday.”I nodded, sad that everything had to come to this. “I’m glad everything is over now.” I told him. “And I can start over from scratch. It’s all a new beginning for all of us.”Ethan gave me a look that said that even though it was a new beginning for some of us…there were still lingering feelings left.“At least I still get to be friends with you.” He finally said with a sigh. “But if Brandon treats you bad again…I will

Instead, I watched him take a seat on one of the couches on the opposite side of the room, far from me and Julia.I knew he was giving us space, letting me and her settle our differences. It was what was most important. But at the same time, I couldn’t help but miss his presence, his support.No matter how brave of a front I put up…I was still worried about what had transpired between him and Julia at her house.“Thank you…” Julia told me now, her eyes appearing haunted as she looked up at me tiredly. “For not complaining against me…even after everything I did…”I saw tears well up in her eyes as she swallowed hard, her emotions clearly all over the place. “Why?

And I wasn’t even worried about myself at the moment.The cops stayed in the room, keeping their watchful eyes on me as if I was going to get up and jump out the window to escape them. Well…unfortunately, this wasn’t some kind of survival episode and I was definitely not into Fast and Furious. Besides, I just had a surgery!How did they expect me to escape when I was barely able to move without support?I kept looking at the clock on the wall, waiting desperately for someone, anyone, to arrive! Debby waited patiently by my side, her hand in mine a kind of reassurance that everything was going to be alright and that help was on its way.However, even though the clock seemed to tick at a snail’s pace and a minute felt like an eternity, I didn’t actually have to wait long before people started pouring into my room.First came my aunt and George, their worried faces instantly l

Memories from the past came rushing back in waves, making me recall all the times I had stood in front of this very door, sometimes with an expensive bouquet of roses in my hand and sometimes with takeout from a fine dining restaurant. How many times had we slammed these very doors? Sometimes in passion, sometimes in anger and sometimes in dejection? Time was indeed a funny thing, wasn’t it? Because once, when these same emotions had threatened to engulf me in agony…now they were like fleeting images at the back of my mind, hardly evoking even a quarter of the same emotions that I had once felt for the woman who lived behind the
