BACK IN THE DAYIt turned out that Steve was very much interested in being friends, but just afraid to show it because he was afraid of being rejected.“No, I was fine. I just had some shifts to cover before I resumed school fully. If I don’t complete them, I won't get paid, you know?” Steve replied to Derek’s question.No, Derek didn’t know, as he had never had to work in his life, and neither had Damien, but of course, neither of them told Steve that.They struck up a conversation, and before Derek knew it, they were all laughing and conversing with each other as though they had known themselves for a very long time.Derek was relieved, because he did not want a belligerent person for a roommate, and he had every plan of staying in the dorm during his first year in college, at least.The three fast became good friends, with Derek and Steve being even closer to themselves than Damien was to them since they were roommates.Derek found out that Steve and his twin, Dave, had both run aw

Nervous

Ava was nervous as hell. She sat stoically beside Steve as he drove the two of them to Derek’s house, neither of them talking much to each other as they were both lost in thought.Derek had finally been released from the hospital, and some of the more important people who had worked on the last project had been selected to go pay him a courtesy visit.Needless to say, Steve and Ava were among those who were selected. She was both the producer and screenwriter of the just concluded movie, while Steve was the lead actor in it, plus they both used to have a relationship with him, so it was common sense that they go.Ava supposed that the both of them could have refused to go, but that would have been in bad taste. Besides, she had decided to tell him about the daughter that they had together.This visit presented the perfect opportunity for her to tell him since she had no wish to have such a conversation with him in an intimate setting with no one around them.“Are you alright?” Steve a

Goofy

BACK IN THE DAYSeveral days had passed after Ava blurted out those unthinkable words ‘I would like to get married to you’ to Derek, and everything had gone back to normal.She had stopped cringing so badly each time she thought about the embarrassment that she felt after saying those words to him.Derek hadn't brought up the topic since then, and in fact, Ava began to think that he had all but forgotten about it, since he continued to act with her as he usually did, without his behavior changing in the slightest. It was a huge relief.Today, she was reading a book while they both sunbathed on the patio because Derek felt that he was getting too pale and needed some fresh air, and as a matter of fact, so did Ava.Suddenly, she felt eyes on her and when she looked up, she realized that he was staring intently at her. Ava felt herself blush but held his gaze, wondering what he was thinking. “Do your parents live in this city?” He asked her a second later, surprising her because he hard

Agreement

At first, Ava thought that Derek was joking about the marriage thing, but soon, she realized that he was actually very serious about it.She began to doubt if that was really what she wanted. Did she really want to get married to a man who just wanted a wife and wasn’t in love with her in the sense of the word?She was not delusional enough to think that Derek was in love with her. What was their marriage going to be like? Did he want kids? Her traitorous heart wanted to be with him very much, but her brain kept telling her that her love for him was not enough.“I don’t know what to say to that.” She said, at last, a little uneasily.“I have made you uncomfortable.” He stated.“No, of course not. I’m just confused. If you want to get married to anyone, why did you choose me?”“Because we both like each other. In fact, I think in your case, it’s probably more than that. Isn't that true?” Derek asked her. She remained quiet, but her silence was answer enough.“Of course, you can take yo

Mutual attraction

"Huh? What do you mean I can't invite my parents?” Ava asked him.“Well, it’s going to be a very short wedding like we agreed. In fact, with the way they’ve been behaving, my Mom and Amanda aren't invited to the wedding either. We can have my friend, Damien and my bodyguard Jerome act as witnesses.” Derek replied.“No way! I can't have that sort of wedding. I’ve always dreamed about having a big wedding with my parents and siblings present to grace the occasion. How can I get married without telling my parents about it?”“I didn’t say you can't tell your parents about it. Of course, you can, but I’ve been keeping a low profile ever since my father’s death and the accident. The last thing I need is for the press to be all up in my business and blow things out of proportion like they always do, or even worse, begin to wonder about what happened with Denise and all of that. Besides, there's no point in stressing your parents to come all the way here for an occasion that won't even last f

Neutral

She was a grown woman for chrissakes, and she wished that her father would start treating her as one. She would have understood his concern if he was simply worried because she was marrying a stranger. But no, he wanted her to marry his best friend’s son … a guy she could barely stand at all. Her father was always acting like he knew what was best for her, and the fact was that he didn’t! Getting married to Marcus was as good as signing up to be miserable for the rest of her life. She would rather get married to someone she was in love with. This was one of the reasons why she was somewhat estranged from her parents. Not long after she ended the call with her Dad, her mother called her, crying and telling her how her father loved her and only wanted the best for her. “I know mum, but the best thing for me is not to marry Marcus. You both know I can't stand the guy. Besides, it’s just going to be a small wedding with only two witnesses present. His family isn't going to be prese

No pain

On their wedding night, Derek proceeded to get drunk and locked himself up in his study. Ava had her own bedroom, and they hadn't discussed whether they were going to be sharing his bedroom or not.So she waited for him to come over to her bedroom, but he never came. When it was almost midnight and she could wait no longer, she summoned up courage and made her way over to his room.She was horny, and she craved more of the intimacy that she and Derek had shared on that day that she had sex. Now that they were man and wife, she had every right to have it.Soon, she was standing in front of the massive his massive door and knocking gently on it. It occurred to her that he might be sleeping, but then, she was already here, so she might as well go through with the reason why she was here.After knocking several times without receiving an answer, she turned the knob of the door, which opened easily, and stepped inside the room.The room was empty though, and when she called out his name, t

The visit

PRESENT DAYNow, she was entering into that same living room in which they had finally made love all those years ago, and the last thing she needed to be doing was reliving it.That would be mad disrespectful to Steve, who was holding her hand possessively. As with the other parts of the house that she passed through, everything remained the same in the living room.Derek was seated there, as were a few other visitors. He looked much leaner than she had ever seen him look, and she realized that he must have gone through a lot during his captivity.The exact details of what must have transpired in the woods had been mostly kept secret from the public, so no one knew what exactly he must have gone through in there, but from the looks of him, it was hell.He gingerly got up to welcome them, coming over to them for brief handshakes and thanking them for coming to see him. Somehow, seeing him in this somewhat vulnerable state made Ava feel sorry for him.“It’s very nice of you both to come

Chicken

“That wasn’t so bad, was it?”Steve asked Ava as they drove home from Derek’s place.“No, it actually wasn’t. Derek seems to have changed a lot. He even gave us his blessing, so to speak, although he did threaten to tan your hide if you were to hurt me.” Ava said, laughing a little, but Steve did not seem to find it as funny as she did.“Yeah, he’s one to talk … as though he isn't the chief culprit when it comes to doing that.”“Hey, calm down. It was only a joke.”“I know, I know. It’s just that seeing him and Damien acting all loved up, while they treat me like an outcast or some sort of leper kind of hurts. Damien didn’t even act like he knew that my brother died. That sort of behavior sucks coming from someone who was once a very close friend.”“Oh, so you knew Damien too? You’re literally a mystery to me, or rather, your history with Derek is a mystery to me.”“Yeah, I used to know Damien as well. Derek, Damien and I used to be pretty close back then in college. Derek and I were r

Ted talk

“Hmm … so Steve and your ex-wife, huh? That is so unbelievable. I'll have to give it to him, that guy is got balls made out of steel.” Damien said to Derek as soon as Ava and Steve left and it was just the two of them in the house.“Yeah. She told me that they're seeing each other. He seems to make her happy though, and maybe he truly has changed as he keeps claiming. Fame, money, and adulthood may have changed him, so I’ve decided not to judge or interfere.”“So you’re just going to stand by and let Steve of all people steal the woman who was once your wife? The same woman you're still very much in love with?”“What? I’m not in love with …” Derek started to deny this allegation, but Damien cut him short.“Yeah, yeah. You can lie to yourself and everyone else all you want, but don’t forget that I know you only too well. I mean, I'm not judging you if that's what you're worried about. Far from it ... I think it's better you’re in love with Ava than with Denise in my opinion. Ava is a g
