And now, on the other side, regarding the dark-haired individual... "Can you tell me, where the hell were you for three straight hours yesterday?" His father and wife asked him seriously as they saw the shorter one entering the house. "Answer, Tom." "I was on campus with Laya, Harrison," he replied, setting aside his water bottle. "I know I shouldn't have sneaked out, but I just spent some time with them..." His mother shook her head; there was no logical explanation for being absent for three hours. "They thought you were lost or something, Tom. Besides, there was a water leak, and on top of that, Katherina was also missing." "I didn't know about that," Tom said, of course he knew. "I only know that I was with my friends outside the campus..." "That's not an excuse, alright?" His father said, somewhat exasperated. His son spent three hours outside without a trace, and it was clear he had worried them. "I don't want any more complaints, and don't do that again," he ordered. "Whe
Kiss me, and please, never stop.------------------A long night, endless hours where they made love tirelessly, or so it felt. They gazed at each other for a long time, craving more. In this moment, in the spacious kitchen, Katherina sat on the tall stool by the wooden table, while Tom leaned against the kitchen entrance, observing her with arms crossed and his head tilted, resting against a nearby pillar. He admired how beautiful she looked, immersed in her writing—or as she called it, rereading what she had written—how beautiful she looked in her black shirt, which she had taken off and put back on countless times the previous afternoon and night, because yes, they spent the entire evening and night together after that brief encounter on the neighboring street. He thought that Katherina's rebellious appearance attracted him, drove him crazy, made him forget things she didn't know and didn't want to disclose. Because now... Now that time had caught up with him, he knew he would lose
PASSIONATE KITCHEN...TAKE ME.THRILL ME...MAKE ME YOURS...---------------Going from a moment of love, intimacy, and tenderness to a heated moment, is it already a habit between the dark-haired man and the brunette? Yes, indeed, and that's what was happening right now:Most of the things that were possibly on a large kitchen countertop for perhaps obvious reasons, are now on the floor, maybe broken, or perhaps still intact."Which do you prefer? Chocolate cake or vanilla cake?" she asked, her breath near his lips."Chocolate," he replied, his voice laden with a gasp. "For example, the one I'm currently penetrating with such intensity that I don't want to leave.""Well... Don't leave," she whispered as Tom's thrusts made her shudder, moan. "You're amazing, have I told you?" she asked, her back pressed against the refrigerator, his hand firmly gripping her thighs at his hips, while his right hand clutched the refrigerator frame. Their grunts grew louder as he went in and out with rel
It all began with the dark-haired one at the brunette's house, but then, the kitchen moment happened at Tom's house, where they practically spent a full day and a half. Time seemed to stand still with the dark-haired one, but now, as the brunette headed home, she realized that time does exist. As she entered her house, she found her father standing in the Star room, arms crossed and a furious expression on his face as he saw his daughter arrive."Where the hell were you?" Idris asked, his anger and concern evident. "Katherina..." The silent culprit responded with a lie."I... I was with Jisoo. Yeah, I was with Jisoo.""Isn't she supposed to be on a field trip?" Her confused father asked. "You didn't answer my calls for a day and a half, Katherina.""I'm sorry, Dad... I'm sorry. I won't do it again." She approached him and hugged him. "I promise." Looking into his eyes, she planted a kiss on the tip of his nose. "I lost track of time with Jisoo, and I didn't realize my phone had no bat
What could be worse? Listening to your good friend's sermons? Or having him tell you that what you're doing is supposedly wrong?"No, it can't be," he said for the tenth time. The handsome man in question was telling him that again. "Have you gone crazy, Tom?" he asked, furrowing his brow as the mentioned man put his backpack in his locker. "It's Katherina. The one you told me was just part of a revenge plan, revenge..." he emphasized. "And now you come and tell me you're in love with her?""Yes, that's what I'm telling you," he said, both of them resuming their walk towards the soccer field. "Listen, Harrison, I know it sounds twisted, but that's how it happened. I fell in love with her, I fell in love with Katherina." His words flowed softly from his mouth, filled with emotion. "I love her.""Sure," Harrison sarcastically retorted, and Tom rolled his eyes. "Go tell that story to Laya or Jin, they'll believe you right away, but not me. Tell me something, Tom, how the hell are you goi
The days passed like leaves transitioning from green to a yellowish color under the sun shining upon them. In this moment, caught between a dream-like state and a moment for two, the dark-haired and the brunette found themselves enjoying each other's company with laughter and kisses."Tom, enough!" she pleaded amidst laughter. "You devil," she said as she managed to break free from his grasp and saw the feigned look of offense on his face. "Stop it already!" she shouted as he once again had her in his grip, tickling her. She fell onto the bed, with him on top, straddling her. "That's enough, Tommy!" she laughed, tears escaping her eyes."Only if you give me a kiss," he requested, his face close to hers. "Katherina..."The brunette gazed into those eyes she adored, licked her lips, and gave him a deep kiss that quickly turned passionate. She sucked on his lip slowly, and in a swift motion, Tom was in his place with her on top. They continued in that kiss until Katherina moved her lips
"All right, everyone to your places," the philosophy teacher requested as both grades gathered in his classroom for the singing contest. Because today, today was the day for the performances. As the classroom settled into their seats, he took the microphone and introduced each of the contestants. "I hope you all support your classmates today and maintain order," he said in front of everyone. "Today is a great day to discover new talents, to enjoy and support." The classroom buzzed with excitement. "In 10 minutes, it will all begin," he added finally, and he made his way to where the other teachers were at the back of the room.All the participants were excited, while others were nervous. Among them was a certain brunette who was praying to heaven that everything would go well and not disappoint anyone, especially a certain dark-haired boy."Relax," she said as she approached him, patting his shoulder. "You'll do great.""Thank you, Jisoo," she hugged him for the encouragement. "I hope
"Before I begin to sing, I want to say a few words," she said. "Everyone here has seen, witnessed how I have changed, how I have changed with someone who used to only want to kill." The classroom laughed; they already knew who she was talking about. "That feeling just shifted one night after so many things, without me even realizing it, just on a piece of paper, several, to be honest," she chuckled. "I wrote down what, after reading it over and over again, were feelings that that guy over there," she pointed at Tom, "makes me feel, that make themselves known, that fill me up. Those feelings that I thought I would never feel towards him, but now I only feel them. And you know what? I don't regret it. That guy is a great guy, a great person who has been there for me no matter what. That guy who I know feels the same way I do. And what do I feel? I feel nothing but a deep love for him. I love you so much, Tom," she confessed, looking at him, noticing the teary eyes in him, and he just si
"What was that?" He frowned slightly as Tom pulled out of her and heard whispers behind the door.Tom, still panting, grabbed his light green long-sleeved shirt, got up alongside Katherina, handing her something from the closet. Cautiously, he went to the door, turned the doorknob, and as he opened it, two bodies fell to the floor.He looked down, seeing Justin and Jisoo, both red as tomatoes with nervous smiles on their faces.They clumsily got up from the floor, and Tom crossed his arms, looking at them with a raised eyebrow. "Can we know... what were you doing behind the door?" Katherina asked, putting on her blouse and standing next to Tom, who was staring at Jisoo and Justin, unwavering. He was standing with his arms crossed, emphasizing his muscles and his slightly clenched jaw. That melted her, but she looked back at the two boys. "You said yes!" Jisoo exclaimed excitedly, grinning. "You're getting married." "So that's... what you were doing..." Tom spoke. "Listening to what
"Are you ever going to stop looking at me?" Katherina asked Tom, who was standing by her side, his gaze fixed on her. "No..." He caressed her cheek, both of them still naked, covered only from the lower part of their bodies. "I never want to stop."Katherina smiled slightly, not showing her teeth. She closed her eyes, savoring the touch of Tom's fingers on her cheek. She sighed and felt Tom's lips on her temple before kissing her lips.The kiss was sweet, gentle, with no desire to ever stop kissing each other."I will love you to infinity. That's something no one can deny. I tried in so many ways to get you out of my mind, and the truth is, I couldn't. I realized I can't be without you, you're the only one I want with me, the only one, oh..."Tom looked into her eyes and smiled; it had been so long since he heard her voice, heard her sing. Katherina kissed his lips, nipping at them. "You're the biggest inspiration I have, Tommy." She whispered close to his lips. "Don't ever make me.
"What do you think they're doing?" She asked while standing outside the venue. "It's been two hours since we left them in there." "Rough sex, perhaps?" He said with a mischievous tone and laughed. "Those two..." "Shut up, Harrison." Belinda requested, and Hazz just stuck his tongue out. "I still can't believe that it worked."Neither Belinda nor Hazz knew about the rest's plan. In fact, they doubted that Katherina would go along with it.But she did.And that showed them that she still loved him, they both did.After leaving them in the room at the venue, they decided to go back and just think about what might have happened."... I'm going to go in." Justin said, and Maroon stopped him. "What?" "I think it's better not to go in." "They're in the room, not outside. Besides... I want to know if..." "No way!" The rest shouted, and Justin laughed. "You want to see everything." Daya said. "That room must be a mess." His eyes turned mischievous. "They must have had a lot to do in two
Every part of his body was electrified, and it was no wonder. His dark eyes were fixed on Katherina's eyes, feeling his lower part harden. Katherina pressed him closer to her, and their intimacies collided."Katherina...""Tom..." She took his face and simply kissed him.The atmosphere was too tense, their breaths were ragged, and their heartbeats racing. Katherina made certain movements, causing their sexes to rub against each other. Tom let out a moan near her mouth."Please... I'm begging you," Katherina gasped, placing her hands on Tom's chest. She was against the wall, and Tom was holding her.Tom moved his lips to Katherina's neck, leaving short kisses there. He missed doing this, he missed kissing her, having her beg him, not pushing him away.Katherina let out a moan as his lips touched her ears, nibbling on them. She pulled Tom's hair, roughly capturing his lips, biting them, kissing them passionately."I love you," she said, and Tom looked at her. "I never stopped. I tried,
"Sorry.I promised to love you forever,And it was true, there were no doubts in my mind.If destiny had different plans,And I hurt you by accident.Sorry.If I let go of you,If I didn't defend you,It was because my heart was blind.What a foolishness to lose you,To see it.I'm sorry.I don't expect love or hatred,I already have enough with my pain.I curse the episode,The worst part is that I was the one who wrote it.The demons that your forgetfulness leaves behind await me, they play with me.I know it's cowardly to ask for forgiveness in a song.Sorry.Sorry...Her voice faded away, and crying took over. Her throat closed up, and only her face sunk into the hollow of her neck. Her gasps were audible, her tears were felt; she truly said everything she felt.Like she had never done before. She was against the wall, and faced with everything that had been said, she couldn't help but break down in tears.Both of them were in tears."Please, Katherina." Tom said with a sob, looki
Katherina was looking at Bam, realizing as he saw her that apparently, all of this was yielding a different result. The least expected outcome happened. Her breath rose and fell somewhat quickly, she felt somewhat detached from her body, her heart was beating strongly, and in the face of it all, she felt her ears hurt. She looked at that facade and as she did, she furrowed her brow, tears ran down her cheeks, tears she tried to suppress."Katherina...," Maroon said while standing in front of her. "What's happening?""The photo..." she responded in a low tone. "It's just... Where did they get it from?""Why the question?" Justin spoke. "What matters is that apparently you liked it, it affected you too much," he murmured with a sigh. "Did you like it or not?""Where did they get the photo from?" she asked again, looking at Justin with a hardened expression."I don't know. You tell me," he said, arms crossed. "I don't understand why you want to know. It's just a photo.""A photo that not
"Oh my God!" she exclaimed with concern as she saw him enter. "Tom... What happened to you?" "Nothing, Mom," he replied as his mother checked his nose. "Mom, that's enough. It doesn't hurt." "But who the hell hit you like this?" asked her father. "It doesn't matter." "What do you mean it doesn't matter?" asked Sam. "One more punch, and you won't have a nose." He just frowned. He headed towards his room, taking for granted what his parents and siblings were yelling at him. He threw himself on his bed, covering his face with his hands, taking a deep breath, thinking about the idea that Daya had given him. He was nervous, doubtful. Truth be told, if this didn't work, he would leave it all behind.That caused his heart to tighten.With one hand, he took his cellphone out of his front pocket. He saw several messages from his parents, to which he didn't respond when he had left, and his parents thought something had happened to him. He just deleted them. Afterward, he chatted a bit wit
Take it or let it go, take it or let it go. You know perfectly well that all the suffering you feel, you totally deserve it. I think you're getting the point, baby... You crossed your limits, now you're here among the streets, thinking, "Now, who will I take as my beautiful origami?""It has to be some kind of joke," he said, removing the headphones from his ears. It seemed like the song was speaking more than he thought, and that filled him up. He let out a sigh and looked at the shops that were there before reaching his home. He saw one that was open and remembered that Katherina worked there, but he never had the chance to visit. (Or maybe he just made excuses not to go.) He crossed the street carefully and, standing in front of the shop, he rang the doorbell several times. "Come on... Someone... Hello!" he said, making a gesture when a man with long hair and dark eyes appeared on the other side of the door, looking at him. The man on the other side stared at him and then called so
"Definitely not worth giving her anything," Tom said after several minutes of walking back home with Harrison. After what happened at Katherina's house, Nadia thought it would be best for them to leave. Tom seemed more downcast than ever, gazing at the street floor with his hands in his pockets.Harrison placed his arm over Tom's shoulder and gave him a half-playful hug, ruffling his black hair. "She's the one missing out," he said. Tom looked at him as if to say, "Did you really just say that?" Harrison shrugged. "Sorry... Chocolate makes me say silly things," he chuckled, taking another cookie from his pocket and stuffing it into his mouth. "Wipe that look off your face," he asked Tom."I'm tired, Harrison. Bored. Look at what I've become," Tom held the broken necklace in his hand. "If only she knew that I'm just as broken as this necklace, maybe even more," he sighed heavily, burdened with pain. "I hated how, before leaving, Will showed up, and she just jumped on him and kissed him
