While I was working, I couldn't stop thinking about what Grace had said. Maybe I could give it a try, after all, I wouldn't be hurting anyone. I bit my lower lip and took out my phone from my bag. I searched for his number and stared at it for a moment, unsure whether to call him or not.

"This is so hard," I said to myself.

I took a deep breath, closed my eyes for a moment, opened them again, and looked at his number. I pressed the call button and waited until he answered. I stayed silent for a moment; I was already regretting it and I hadn't even proposed anything to him yet.

"Kat?" he called.

"Hello, how are you?" I replied.

I fell silent again. I didn't have the courage to talk about the subject; I was getting all tangled up because of paying attention to Grace.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

"Do you want to have lunch with me?" I asked him.

Now he was the one who fell silent.

"Really?" he asked me.

I was about to hang up, but I took a deep breath and calmed myself down. I was thirty-si

    In the afternoon, I went to visit Grace at her workplace. I needed to vent to someone about what had happened today with Hayden. I knew she would come up with some offhand comment that would make me laugh. "Apple cider or cyanide?" Grace asked me. I smiled and sat down in front of her. "I suggested we hook up, and he said no," I told her. Grace's mouth dropped open, then she furrowed her brow. "I thought he was into you," she said. I nodded. "He wants us to have some kind of non-relationship. I just don't get it," I said. Grace looked even more confused than I was. "What do you mean?" she asked. "He wants us to hang out, and if at any point in our non-relationship we want to hook up, we will, but he doesn't want just sex. He wants there to be, like, feelings or something," I said. Grace crossed her arms. "That boy is weird," she said. I nodded vigorously. "Exactly! He's too weird," I said. Grace shrugged. "He could've given you the night of your life, and he'd have the

    Grace and I went to open the door, and as we did, I stood there looking foolishly at him. Hayden was wearing a black suit that made him look even more handsome; it fit him so well that it seemed tailor-made. Was there anything that didn't look good on this guy?"You look beautiful!" he said with a smile.Beautiful me? Hadn't he seen himself in a mirror? He entered my apartment, Grace greeted him, and then she left."I like the dress, it suits you perfectly," he said while eyeing me up and down, making me feel so sexy."It's Grace's," I admitted.Hayden moved closer to me, caressed my cheek, and then lowered to my lips. Hayden ran his finger over my lower lip and then looked at his finger."It doesn't come off," he said.I furrowed my brow, not understanding what he had said, but he didn't give me time to think as he grabbed the back of my head and planted a kiss on my lips. I hugged his neck and intensified the kiss. Hayden's hands seized my butt; he caressed and squeezed it forcefull

    Hayden had arrived at my house a few hours later. He knocked on my door for about an hour, while calling my phone. I sat on the bed, put on a romance movie at full volume while getting drunk. I know it's not healthy, but it makes me feel good.The next morning, I left early for work, which I had set aside to pretend to be a teenager."Kat, can you review these documents?" Lily asked me.I nodded, and she placed them on my desk. Then, she left. I took the documents out of the envelope and started reading.The door to my office opened again. I looked up from the documents and saw Grace with a bottle of wine and two crystal glasses."Congratulations! I'm so proud of you," she said.She sat in front of me and poured me a glass."Tell me everything, I want every detail," she asked excitedly.I took the wine glass and drank it in one gulp."Some guy thought I was his mother and congratulated me on how good a son he had," I said.Grace frowned and ended up drinking directly from the bottle.

    I sat down next to Grace. grabbed the bottle from the desk, and took a good swig; I needed to clear my mind."That guy isn't going to let you go so easily; it's very sweet of him to want to fight for your love," she said dreamily.I took another swig."Hayden is very cute; I think out of all the guys you've been with, he's the closest to what you're looking for; he's so romantic and persistent," she said.I looked at her; Grace was right; I've always wished for someone like Hayden, but never did I ask for a twenty-two-year-old."I don't want to see him anymore," I told her.Grace looked at me."If you're going to react like this every time someone mentions your age difference, you're screwed. Hayden is an adult just like you," she said.I leaned back in my chair and looked at the ceiling."But he's twenty-two," I complained."Yeah, and possibly twenty-two centimeters long. Now stop feeling sorry for yourself and grab the bull by the horns. Ride that animal; you won't regret it," she s

    Hayden rushed towards me and caught up with me in the car; he looked at me, but didn't say anything, and I thanked him from the bottom of my heart for that. I didn't want to talk about the issue; I didn't want to think about it. We both got into the car, and Hayden started driving right away. I leaned back in the seat and closed my eyes for a moment, needing to process what had just happened. "Are you okay?" Hayden asked me. I opened my eyes and looked out the car window as he continued driving; I didn't want to look at him, I felt too vulnerable and knew I would cry if I did. "I'm sorry about what happened, but I think you shouldn't have reacted that way. I don't know what kind of problem you have with your mother, but she needs you, and if she told you it's because she thinks you're strong and can handle it," he said. I slowly looked at him again; I felt tears welling up in my eyes. "Do you think I'm a bad daughter?" I asked him. Hayden stopped the car and looked at me with a

    Hayden gasped into my mouth as he thrust slowly. I was clinging to his neck, devouring his mouth hungrily. We had done it many times in different places in my apartment. Hayden pulled out of me and turned me over. I lifted my rear a bit to give him better access to my intimacy. He grabbed my hips and thrust aggressively. The grunts and gasps coming from his mouth delighted me. I had been with many men, but I had never heard them gasp like him; it was so delicious to know he enjoyed being with me. "Do you like it?" he asked me, his voice breathless. I looked over my shoulder; his pale skin was flushed, tiny droplets of sweat adorned his skin, and his blue eyes, now black, seemed possessed. He was the definition of sexuality. "I love it," I replied. Hayden smiled and fluttered his long blonde eyelashes. I buried my face in the sheets, although I was doing this with him, my mind was still swirling with thoughts about his age. "You're so perfect, Kat. I've never met anyone like you,"

    Working for Hayden's team was very demanding. I was a mess with some documents I had to draft, and I was also busy with my other job."You look terrible," Lily said as she entered the office. She left me coffee on the desk and sat across from me."Have you been informed that someone new will be joining today?" she asked me.I nodded. I had received an email with all the information a week ago."He's really good," she said.I looked away from the documents I was reviewing and glanced at her."Is he here already?" I asked.She nodded, a silly grin on her lips."His name is Matteo," she said.I already knew his name, but the truth was I didn't remember his face even though I had seen his photo; I hadn't paid much attention."And they're waiting for you in the conference room to formally introduce him to the team," she said.I rolled my eyes. If they had started with that, I would already be there. I got up and walked out of the office, heading to the conference room and entered; almost e

    Upon entering the restaurant and sitting at one of the tables, this Matteo guy started chatting with Kat, leaving me out. I just watched them like an idiot. I'm not jealous, but this situation was uncomfortable, and what bothered me the most was that Kat hadn't been able to tell him that we were dating. That hurt."Don't you think she's cute?" Kat asked me, showing me a photo of a girl about ten years old.I forced a smile and nodded. Kat handed the phone back to Matteo and continued talking to him, ignoring my presence."And what do you do, kid?" he asked me.I stared at him. I could see how much of an idiot he was. I knew he'd say something to try to make me feel inferior. I knew guys like him."I'm a race car driver," I said proudly.He started laughing and looked at me pitifully."And if that doesn't work out, what will you do next? Flip burgers for a living?" he asked.I didn't look at Kat. I knew she would give me that look, asking me to calm down, but I couldn't. I felt so much

    Two months later.Hayden had left for the workshop early without telling me, or rather ordering me, not to come see the race. Ethan was still too young, and I understood that, but today was the big final, and it seemed fair that our little one saw his father's victory.I called Grace and asked her to come for me. Naturally, she agreed immediately. So here I was, at the door, waiting for my crazy friend, with a bag containing my baby's things and a two-month-old baby in her baby carrier.Grace's car pulled up in front of my house. I hurried over, settled my baby in the back seat, and then got into the front passenger seat next to Grace."Your husband is going to kill me," she said with a smile."He'll kill both of us, so hurry up or we'll be late, and I want to wish him good luck," I told her.Grace nodded and sped off."You haven't been drinking, have you?" I asked her.Grace immediately gave me a dirty look."I'm not a monster, Kat," she said.I shrugged and then smiled at her."Just

    Months later.I started placing photos from my wedding with Hayden everywhere, along with some other pictures. I wanted our home to be as cozy as possible."Love, can you help me move this?" I shouted.Hayden appeared shirtless and sweaty, as he was organizing furniture for the baby's room."Darling, stop moving so much, you're in the final days. You're supposed to be resting," he said to me.I rolled my eyes immediately. I hated doing nothing and leaving all the work to him."I'm just putting up some photos. My arm won't fall off," I told him.Grudgingly, Hayden moved a small table that was in the way."Sit down, for God's sake, you're making me nervous," he said.I approached him and hugged him."I'm all sweaty," he said.I shrugged."You look very sexy," I said to him.He smiled."Please sit down," he asked.I let go of him and suddenly felt water running down my legs."Damn," I said.Hayden looked at me nervously."What happened?" he asked.I smiled at him."My water broke.

    The most important day of my life arrived. Grace was with me in my parents' room, helping me finish getting ready. I felt like a very pregnant princess."You look like a tent, but one of the cute ones," Grace said out of the blue.I glared at her and she started laughing."Sorry, I'm just nervous. This is your first wedding. I'm as nervous as I was when I lost my virginity," she said.I blinked a few times, still staring at her."How about you stop talking?" I suggested.She immediately rolled her eyes."I'm just nervous," she said.I moved closer to her and hugged her."I'm so happy that you're happy," she said with a trembling voice.I pulled away and smiled. Grace was crying."Thank you for always being by my side, and thanks for all your advice, even though sometimes they're not the best," I said.She hugged me tightly."Let's hurry out or we'll ruin our makeup," she said.We both separated and smiled. Grace left the room, and moments later my father entered."You look so perfect,

    Days passed without any problems. Hayden and I were living a dream. In fact, from the moment he proposed to me, Grace and I started planning my wedding. I wanted something small but beautiful, an idea that Grace didn't like at all. She wanted something extravagant, the wedding of the year, according to her.She and I were sitting on the floor of my apartment, flipping through bridal magazines."We could rent a hall, I promise the wedding will be wonderful," Grace suggested."I want it to be in my father's garden, something small but beautiful," I said with a smile.She rolled her eyes."Do you want a wedding like your sister's?" she asked.I immediately shook my head. Despite many changes made to my sister's wedding, it was... boring to my taste. I wanted it to be joyful but intimate."I don't understand you. So, you just want some flowers, tables, and that's it?" she asked."You hit the nail on the head, that's exactly what I want, small but beautiful," I replied with a smile."If an

    Hayden had gone on a trip with the team. I couldn't go with him due to work reasons, so I called him every day to ask how he was, and when I didn't call, he called me. It was sweet, I loved feeling so pampered and loved.Today I was in the office, reviewing some documents. Honestly, all I really wanted was to go home and sleep. With pregnancy, I had become a lazy person.Lily entered my office and looked at me."Kat, someone wants to talk to you," Lily said."I'm not in the mood for anyone," I replied.She took a deep breath."It's Hayden's sister, and she says she won't leave without talking to you," she said.I rolled my eyes. After the argument with Hayden's father, I thought everything was over, but apparently not."Tell her to come in," I said.Lily nodded and left my office. After a brief moment, Hayden's sister entered. She looked at me and smirked."So, is it true you're pregnant?" she said."What do you want?" I asked irritably.She smiled."Just saying hello, that's all," sh

    El rugido de los motores llenaba el lugar mientras Grace and I approached the engineers and Jona, who looked somewhat worried. I glanced at Hayden's car, lined up at the starting line with the others."Trust Hayden," I said to Jona.He looked at me."I trust him, I know we'll win," he said.I nodded. Jona took off his headphones and handed them to me. I put them on immediately."The victory is yours, love," I told Hayden."I love you," Hayden replied."Focus. You can tell me you love me later," I said."Just wanted to remind you, but yeah, I'll tell you later," he said.I glanced to the side and noticed the others with headphones laughing."Okay, you're embarrassing me," I told him.I took off the headphones and handed them back to Jona, who was smiling broadly.The stands were filled with the colors of different teams. The crowd's cheers filled the entire place. It felt so exciting.The lights went out, and the cars sped off, filling the air with the smell of gasoline and burning rub

    The next day, Hayden left for the workshop very early. I decided to stay behind as I wasn't in the mood to go out. I sat on the couch and started looking up information about the guy from yesterday, ending up on his social media. Each photo of him was increasingly suggestive; this man was definitely a first-class show-off."Kat!" Grace shouted, startling me. I stopped looking at my phone screen and looked at her."How did you get in?" I asked her.She sat down next to me, took my phone out of my hand, and then looked at me."Why are you looking at naked men? Wow, this guy is hot! Do you happen to have his number?" she asked.I snatched my phone back from her hand and gave her a stern look."I'm just doing some research, and this guy is Hayden's direct competition," I told her.Grace took my phone again and looked at it for a moment."Don't worry, Hayden will win," she said with a smile."Did you bet again?" I asked her.She grinned from ear to ear."I bet my vacation money, so picture

    I arrived at the workshop hand in hand with Hayden, while Nora and Debbie watched us. I smiled at them and we continued forward until we reached the office, where Jona awaited us with a look of tragedy."Is something wrong?" I asked him.Jona handed me some documents; I skimmed through them and immediately knew that everything was a mess."Who the hell made this mess?" I asked him.Jona ran his hands over his face."Nora did, and I didn't check them. Now we're in a huge mess with this, practically giving away promotions for free," he said to me.I left the documents on the desk and walked out of the office. I walked up to where those two were."I need you in the office now," I told Nora.She looked me up and down and ignored me."You blamed me so much for throwing away all the team's effort, and here you are giving away money?" I asked angrily."I don't know what you're talking about," she replied.I grabbed her arm and dragged her with me back to the office, where Hayden and Jona wer

    I sat on the edge of the bed and watched Kat slowly get naked. He began to take out my cotton sweater, leaving to the open his full breasts and his beautiful belly. Then she took off her pyjamas, remaining with a sexy white-fitting panty.'This is a bad idea,' I said to him.Kat approached me and climbed up to my back.'According to whom?' he asked.She put her fingers in my hair and drew me toward her.'I need you so much,' he said to me.He scratched his lips slightly with mine in a tempting way. I grabbed his waist tightly."Do me love, please," he asked me.She helped me remove my sweater and dropped it on the floor, then she passed her hands over my chest, stopping on my pectorals and squeezing them.'I love you, Kat,' I said.She kissed me hungry, devoured my mouth as if only today existed. I answered her kiss with the same passion, sticking it more to my body. Kat separated from me, stuck her forehead on mine and looked me in the eyes.'I swear to you that I will never see you
