I stepped away from Matteo and glared at him; he just smiled as if nothing had happened, and that made me even angrier. I had asked him not to do it again, and he had taken my words as if they meant nothing."Don't come near me again," I warned him angrily."I'm sorry," he said with a smile.I turned away without saying anything and walked away. I didn't want anything to do with him for now. I entered the building and took the elevator, waited until it opened, and walked to my apartment."Kat," someone called me.I turned around immediately; Hayden was standing there, looking at me strangely."Why?" he asked me.I looked at him and then understood what he was trying to tell me."It's not what you think," I clarified.Hayden started to cry; he ran both hands over his face in despair."I swear it's not what you think. Let me explain, please," I begged him.I felt myself getting desperate and didn't know what to do or say to make him stop crying."If you didn't want me, you should have t
I walked the streets looking for a bar to drown my sorrows; maybe that way Kat's betrayal would hurt less. I wanted to erase her from my mind, forget what I felt. I entered the first bar I saw and went to the counter. I sat there and ordered a drink, downing it as soon as it was handed to me, so I ordered another one."There are only two types of people who drink like that, those who have lost a family member or those whose hearts have been broken," a female voice told me.I looked up, and it was a girl tending the bar."The second one," I replied.She gave me another one, and I drank it in one gulp again."It's not worth it; you'll feel worse tomorrow," she said."But since my job is to sell alcohol," she continued and filled my glass with more alcohol.I chuckled at her comment."I bet a lot of people with broken hearts come to this place," I told her.She nodded."That's why I love Valentine's Day," she said.I laughed a little more and looked at her more closely. She had brightly
Debbie stepped away from me and looked at me; now I felt incredibly embarrassed about what had happened. I felt like a child for the stupidity I had exhibited with Kat."I'm sorry I got you involved in this," I said to her.She smiled and shrugged."Don't worry about it, it was fun, the look on her face was epic," she said.I hung my head in embarrassment; this was too much, and I don't want to justify myself, but I wanted to make her feel the way I felt."And I'm sorry for throwing up on you," I said, changing the subject.Yesterday, I was so drunk that I couldn't even stand, and Debbie helped me out of the bar. But my mind was so affected by alcohol that I completely forgot my address and, I think, even my name, so she brought me to her house, and as soon as we arrived, I vomited all over her, turning us into a complete mess."Your clothes are clean now," she said.I nodded. I felt so much shame for what had happened. Definitely, this was the first and last time I would drink alcoho
The next day I woke up feeling even more depressed. The thought of Hayden being with another woman filled me with jealousy."You look terrible," Grace said to me.I glanced at her and simply nodded. Not only did I look terrible, but I also felt terrible."Well, go take a shower and put on some makeup. You can't go to work looking like that, you look like a ghost," she said.If I felt better, I would have responded sarcastically, but the reality was that I didn't have the energy for anything. I didn't even want to work; I just wanted to lie in bed and berate myself for the things I had done."I feel so alone," I told her.Grace rolled her eyes."Then go and fight for your man, because if you stay, you won't get anything," she advised.I nodded. Now it was going to be me who fought for him. I was sure that we would soon be back together; we just needed to sort things out. I didn't like Matteo, and I'm sure that girl meant nothing to him.[...]I watched Hayden smile at that woman as he
The guy in front of me kept talking about how great he was and how lucky I had been to meet him. I downed the rest of the wine and smiled at him as Grace had asked me to."For me, women should stay at home, taking care of the children. Although at your age, I think it will be difficult to have children, although there are already many methods to do so," he said.I looked at him with a raised eyebrow, incredulous at what I had just heard."What do you do for a living?" I asked him.He looked at me self-assuredly and took a sip from his glass; then he smiled at me."I invest in the stock market," he said proudly.I laughed, a small laugh, one of those that are very sarcastic."I need to go to the bathroom," I told him.He nodded. I got up, took my purse, and headed to the bathroom. Determined to call Grace and tell her I was leaving; I couldn't stand another minute with that jerk. I felt a tug on my arm followed by a pull. I looked beside me, and it was Hayden, who was dragging me with
We were in the team workshop, inside the new car, naked and breathless, our bodies moving in unison as we made love.— How much did you tell her about this car? — I asked.Hayden grabbed my hips and stopped them, then looked at me and smiled.— Are you jealous? — He asked me.I kissed him as I moved up and down, enjoying the feeling of being connected to him.Hayden thrust into me, eliciting a moan from my throat that was muffled by his mouth.I pulled away from him slightly and looked into his eyes, those blue eyes that drove me crazy.— I want you to tell me the same thing — I requested.He smirked and nodded.Hayden lowered his head a bit and started to lick my throat, while firmly gripping my butt.— Won't you tell me? — I asked him.He stopped licking me and looked at me.— Things about the engine. Nothing relevant, but you can be sure of one thing, you're the first and the only one to climb up here, well... except for me — He said.I grabbed his jaw and kissed him, it was a shor
I lay on Hayden's chest and gazed at him for a long while; his eyes were closed, he looked relaxed and happy."I love you," I said to him.Hayden slowly opened his eyes and looked at me."I thought you were asleep," I said to him.He squeezed me tighter against his chest and started kissing me on the head."Say it again, please. I love how it sounds," he asked.I looked up at him and said, "I love you, I love you, I love you," repeatedly.Hayden grabbed my face and gave me a quick kiss, then smiled at me."I didn't do anything with her," he told me.I rested my chin on his chest and watched him for a long while."I swear it," he said.I kissed his chest and then nodded."I believe you. I didn't do anything with Matteo either. I think he misunderstood my behavior, but I swear I never did anything with him. That kiss was a mistake; I didn't even ask for it," I said.I liked clearing things up like this; I think in a relationship, trust is the most important thing, so from now on, I'll t
The car journey kept stretching on longer and longer. I glanced at Hayden, who was focused on the road. Then, I checked the time; it was three in the morning. I shifted in my seat, feeling somewhat uncomfortable; we had been on the road for several hours."Where are we going?" I asked for the umpteenth time.Hayden didn't look at me; he just shrugged. I wanted to hit him with my shoe, but I hadn't even been allowed to bring one."To the end of the world," he replied with a smile.I grimaced, but I felt too drowsy to start an argument with him, so I fell silent."You're going to love the place; it'll just be the two of us. I've taken care of everything, so don't worry," he said.I nodded slowly."You'd better, because I won't forgive you so easily for this. How could you drag me out of the house without shoes and in pajamas?" I scolded him.Hayden turned to look at me and started laughing. I looked away so he wouldn't see that I was also smiling; of all the crazy things that have happe
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. I thin
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
