Part 31

He surged forward, hands scrabbling as he clashed our lips together, not even waiting for me to say anything. It was a filthy kiss, one of teeth and tongue and such bliss that I felt weak in the knees. Edward licked into my mouth and I moaned, pressing himself up against his thigh, desperate for the friction that I needed. My whole body was so deep, so invested in just this one kiss that I could feel my head growing dizzy, another breathy moan passing through until he was suddenly pulling back. "W-What-" I slurred, adjusting to the light in the room but he only stepped further away, removing that delicious friction and making me weep with need. "N-No, please. I need-" I tried to protest, but the words were stolen from my throat as I was flipped around quickly, head spinning. "Do you want me to take care of you or not?" He whispered, pressing against my back as he dipped his head down to my ear, the few inches that separated us in height incredibly evident now that we were this c

Part 32

The bright light on my face made my lips twitch. Groaning I tried to move away only to realise that someone was holding me by my waist. Dread settled inside my stomach and I refused to turn around. Maybe it was just a dream I thought. But even after opening my eyes when I noticed the same oak floor and dark curtains it sank inside me that I was in an unfamiliar room. Taking a few deep breaths I managed to look down the sheets only to realise that I was stark naked. My eyes clenched shut at that. How was I so stupid to get wasted at my boss party? Slowly and carefully I managed to untangle myself and turn around. A low whistle escaped my lips when I noticed Edward sleeping with his mouth open. Fuck! Out of all people, how could I manage to sleep with the same person even after six years? I wanted to slap myself but I held back. Supporting my back against the headboard I groaned feeling my head throb. I blinked my eyes a few times to get rid of the hazy image. My eyes felt he

Part 33

My lips pressed together as he waited for my answer. I couldn't think anything straight, couldn't even manage to look at his face without guilt crawling my body. How was he so calm about it? Why was he not scared about facing his fiancee? "You're upset" He mumbled, turning to face me. Of course, I was upset. I was angry at myself and how stupid I was to lose control and sleep with him again. "Aria" He softly whispered, his voice hesitant as he tried to come closer. It spurred me even more than I could imagine. Unable to hold myself I opened my mouth. "Of course I am fucking upset" My voice was shrill and loud even to my own ears. The throbbing in my head was intense and my own voice was ringing in my ears. It made me wince. Edward looked like he was slapped, obviously not expecting me to answer him. It had to be said because I was letting myself fall into the same trap again. Only this time his fiancee was involved. He tugged at his hair, tucking them behind before star

Part 34

/Ashton's POV/ I tried not to look at my cell phone for the hundredth time. It was driving me crazy not knowing where Aria was. She usually called whenever she is free or when she is angry with someone. And usually, I get a text back at least for calling her. But nothing. My phone didn't light up since last night with her text or calls. The last thing I remember was her text about going to some party. "Dr Ashton?" The head nurse knocked on the door. Tearing my eyes off the phone I focused my attention on her. As always she stood at the edge of the door with her hand tucked behind her back. "Come in please" She shook her head, "In a hurried doctor. Just wanted to remind you that you have to be on rounds in ten minutes" My eyes immediately moved towards the clock. It was ten in the morning and I could already feel the tiredness seeping in my bones. All because I couldn't sleep last night and had a late shift. Mustering a smile I nodded my head at her. "Thank you, Juli

Part 35

I couldn't breathe. It wasn't exactly a revelation of the century but I never expected him to confess. Ashton always had feelings for me but I thought they were long gone when he started dating again. How could I not see it coming? All I felt was numb as he kept staring at me. It was so quiet that I could almost hear the sound of my blood rushing through my veins. His breathing was quiet, ragged and so calculated like he was trying to hold back. It pained me to see how he was so nervous about my reaction. Ashton was the best friend you could ask for. Ever since we became friends he has been nothing but helpful. He is a good person to just sit back and observe what he is like. There was always something quirky going on in his mind. And he handled Aiden's chaotic and stubborn antics very well. At times it made me feel like I should have met him sooner. Maybe that would have changed my mind about rooting for someone who would never love me back. Sometimes it made me think it wo

Part 36

Watching Aria leave was one of the hardest things ever. It felt like losing her all over again and I couldn't focus on anything. And everything around me felt like it was crashing. I took a day off from the work, fully aware that Aria did the same. It was probably the worst example we were setting in the office. We did raise some eyes given the way we escaped the party night before but that was least of my worries. My head was throbbing with the amount of alcohol I had the night before. Not to mention I received more than ten messages from Sara and two missed calls. It was stupid to avoid her but I couldn't talk without feeling guilt consume me. How could I let my inhibitions get the best of me? All it took was one night and everything I was trying to hold back collapsed. Getting up from the bed I decided to take a cold shower. My phone rang again so I picked at the screen hoping that it was Aria. Maybe she wanted to talk again. After the things, she said in the morning it fel

Part 37

/Edward's POV/ My whole world felt like it was crashing. Hurriedly excusing myself, I dialled Asif’s number, fingers shaking. Aria wouldn't hide something that major from me, would she? The gut feeling in my stomach told me otherwise. Whatever happened to the innocent girl I met at the beach house. You. I thought bitterly, suddenly reminded of the look on her face that morning. The hurt that took over when I casually spoiled everything we had built over the couple of weeks. Is that why she hid Aiden from me? I pondered. Maybe this was her revenge for breaking her trust. The ringing continued but there was no response from his side as I paced around the living room nervously. My breathing was ragged and I could feel the bile rising in my throat but I couldn't sit down and relax. It was just too much for me. What if Aria was lying all this time? Or maybe she’s not? For a quick second I let that cross my mind. No. The photo cannot lie. There were way too many similariti

Part 38

Sara. The name echoed around the closed room. My torment went on unnoticed and unspoken for, kept close to my chest where it couldn't hurt anyone but me. As much as I kept trying to tell myself that everything was fine all these years, a moment like this, which really came down, showed me otherwise. Somehow, despite promising that this would not happen, that I was strong enough to bear through some tough years while we both prioritised our careers, I found drowning in rivers of ugly feelings I never thought would get to me. In my sane mind I knew things were not that bad, that it was just a matter of holding on a little while longer for things to settle down, for me to find a way to tell him. We just happened to be out of sync, that was all. Then again I would never dare hold blame over Edward for his my creeping insecurities, and still, sometimes I felt like there were a bunch of little bugs crawling around inside, unwelcome taunts I bore all these years for being a single m

Part 39

/Edwards POV/ I was incredibly frustrated with the waiting game. It had been three days of radio silence from Aria. Not a single word. She also somehow managed to escape from my sight during the working hours. After our talk in the my office, she took a half day off and I did not have the heart to stop her. She had a lot to deal with and process on her own. Anxiety gripped at my chest by merely thinking about her talk with Aiden. It could have gone either way and there were a lot of things that could go wrong rather than right. The thought made bile rise to my throat. Another thing that pestered me was Sara. She was still on her trip, not accepting my calls but rather sending automated messages. It managed to piss me off further. My parents, on the other were getting increasingly agitated by my sudden weird behaviour. Even though I wanted to tell them about the kind of situation I was trapped in I couldn't. The last thing I wanted was them to get involved. What if Aria

Part 40

The elevator dinged as it reached my floor, and the door slid open. I stepped out into the sprawling office space, rows of cubicles lined like a miniature maze. The faint buzz of conversation and clicking keyboards filled the air, but I tried not to pay any attention to the static. My desk, in stark contrast to the others, positioned right outside the enormous double doors of his office. Of course. He made the change. There's no cubicle wall to offer even a semblance of privacy, no escape from the intimidating presence of those doors that seem to loom over the entire floor. As I walked, my shoes tapped against the polished floor, each step measured and deliberate. Pausing at the door, balancing the coffee cups in one hand to knock, before pushing one of the heavy doors open. Edward's office was huge and immaculate, much like its owner. Every piece of furniture, every decoration, carefully curated to project authority and control. The lines of walls filled with book titles
