"Why would a handsome guy like him be so rude to you?" Rosina narrowed her eyebrows.
"I don't know and I don't care...he wasn't my type anyway," Pidge flipped her hair back."The first principle to make a guy flatter on you...make an impression.""Guys like women who are independent and intelligent."In this way, Lia's lecture began.The girls were having dinner in a restaurant next to the club they went to.Saturday night is said to be extraordinary...after a working week people gets together with their friends or have dinner with their families...everyone comes out for fun.Alaska is one of the northern areas in the US and the place they live in is known as Anchorage, Alaska.Even with such coldness, the people of Alaska love to enjoy the nights out."Who is your type then, Pidge?" Lia asked wiping her mouth with a napkin."Someone who can dominate me..." she murmured but it was loud enough for the girls to hear.Pidge was quite drunk, after having the dinner they went to stay at Rosina's.Next day was Sunday but it wasn't the off day for them...they still have to work in the bakery.Halloween was over and the season of Christmas was about to start.The shops were slowly decorating.Tomorrow they are going to decorate the Piehood with Christmas lights and stuff.Pidge was quickly asleep.In her dream, she saw a dark room with red dim lights...the same guy she was talking to in the bar was present with her."Where are we?" she asked looking around."I am your dom for tonight, Pidge," his low voice made something raise in her stomach.Her breaths high when she felt his hand brushing her arm and neck."Don't resist it..." he reached out to insert his hand inside her undies.Rest of the time he explored her body giving pleasures to her.Next morning they had breakfast when Lia mentioned, "You were sleep talking last night..."Pidge paused...raised her head and spoke, "I had a wet dream last night."Rosina, Lia and Winter chuckled lightly."Why are you guys laughing?" she asked narrowing her eyebrows."Girl you reached a certain age where you need a man," Winter said pouring the coffee on the cups."I don't think so...it was just a dream," Pidge shook her head."Who did you had sex with?" Rosina asked patiently."Don't say that..." Pidge let out a low gasp and continued, "We made love."Her cheeks turned slightly pink as she blushed."Oh look...now she's blushing," Lia said smirking.After breakfast, the girls reached the bakery and started decorating the bakery while attending the customers."Pidge can you pass me the sugar?" Rosina asked and she simply answered, "No...""What's with the narkiness?" Winter lifted a brow."Leave it...she's just confused," Lia who understood said to both of the girls.Just then the bell rang and a person stepped in...perfume so strong that it spread around the bakery.As soon as the scent of the perfume hit Pidge's nose she murmured, "Crazy spoiled brats... don't even know to wear a perfume..."The person who had just walked to her direction somehow heard and spoke, "Can I get one mocha?"She didn't even lift her head up, just kept on making the coffee when she mumbled, "Only if I can mix the same stingy ass perfume you're wearing in your coffee..."The moment she raised her head to see the person her breath hitched...as if a real cat got her tongue and not leaving it.The guy chuckled lightly as he parted his lips to speak, "Hi... You didn't tell me the bakery you worked in so I...""Look, I'm sorry about last night...I was going through a rough patch..." his face so handsome that Pidge could only stare at him.Rosina walked passed by her as her shoulders brushed Pidge's as she whispered, "Answer him...don't just gawk."Pidge quickly cleared her throat and spoke, "Oh, yes. Yes...absolutely...you are so right."She didn't know what she said but she said it anyway."By the way...nice bakery...is this yours?" he asked looking around.The guy in front of her was such a hunk...so handsome, his tan body was muscular in his own way, those deep pierced warm brown eyes were so beautiful. His hair spiked up but a bit messy due to the cold breeze outside.He was perfection...tall, broad-shouldered and so manly.She realised that she has to answer him and suddenly remembered what Lia said about making an impression.Without thinking she quickly spoke, "Yes! Yes, the bakery is mine..."Rosina, Winter and Lia were astonished to see her like this...whenever nervous she always speaks whatever comes to her mind."Oh, nice..." he made an impressing face."So, Pidge...are you free this Friday?" he asked, his precious smile beyond this world."How do you know my name?" she asked, eyebrows knitted in confusion."You told me last night..." he chuckled lightly...his expressions were like it was unbelievable."Oh...right," Pidge gave a quick nod."Anyways, I will see you around. Thanks," he paid for the coffee and turned to walk away, a beautiful smile not leaving his face."Girl, he is interested in you!""You got him curious to yourself!""But what have you done, girl?"Winter cheered along with Rosina but Lia was the only one with the raised brow as she spoke, "You told him that it is your bakery.""Oh, yes! She lied! Now, what?""I guess he is also to go..."Rosina and Winter said with long faces."It's not like we will meet again. Have you looked at him?""He looked someone from outside but not from our city. He will forget me soon," Pidge shrugged her shoulders and walked towards the fridge.The girls were decorating the bakery with red and white illuminating lights and embellishing vases of fresh flowers.Pidge was busy making customised Christmas cakes and pastries.The gingerbread cookies were the favourite of the people there so she made them in large bulk."I'm so excited for Christmas..." Pidge said watching the lights blinking inside the bakery."This looks so amazing," Winter eagerly clapped her hands together.After the hectic day of working Pidge finally reached her home and was greeted by an old woman."You are late," she said impassively."Yes aunty...we were decorating the bakery," answered her."Decorate the tree for our house, too," the old lady said when Pidge certainly nodded.Tossing and turning her sides after every five minutes Pidge kept on thinking about the handsome guy Dylan.He was handsome from the depths of his eyes to his tan skin, his muscular biceps pumped up from the winter coat he was wearing.She imagined him without a shirt...how hot does his body will look?She only wonders...a ghost of a smile touched his lips when she recalled the scene of him winking in her direction right before he pulled the door of the bakery.Pidge was going mad...she was thinking about Dylan all the time...seeing him in her dreams.She needs to see him...Pidge opened her phone and looked for Dylan on the Facebook search engine.A lot of guys named Dylan appeared on the phone screen while she scrolled down just to see his picture.Clicking on his name his profile picture remained open when she saw the very handsome face of the guy.Her heart skipped a beat seeing the shirtless profile picture of Dylan."Dylan Maxw
On the verandah were plants that reached up past the cedar railings and branched out gleefully into the cold wind.The pots were works of art in their own right. Everyone was a pleasing shape and glazed in the same vibrant shades of blue he accented his home with.Some were like snapshots of midnight and ribbed like waves. Others were classically smooth, widening to a rimmed top, brilliant cyan glaze clinging to them like animal skin and dripping down the sides to add just the right dash of Chaos.Dylan twisted the doorknob and pushed the door open.As they went in she was amazed to see such a beautiful sight to behold.It was a magnificent chalet made of glass, the interior was modern yet elegant."Wow!" she whistled unbelievably."You like it?" he asked and she rushed towards the glass window...the majestic view of the mountains and the snow couldn't describe in words.In the living room, there was placed an undecorated Christmas tree.
"Hurry up, Winter. Mrs Willow will be here soon," Pidge said mopping the floor rapidly.Just then the door of the bakery pushed open and two figures stepped in.Pidge was looking at the floor mopping the spilt coffee which a child has thrown by accident.Her eyes got fixed on the shoes of the people...one was wearing simple black court shoes...she was probably a female.Another figure was wearing neatly pointed dark brown shoes, his feet were larger than the woman.Looking up she was stunned to see the man and a woman."Hello everyone," his voice sweet and a smile touched his lips."Girls, this is my son...Dylan Maxwell," Mrs Willow simply announced.Winter, Rosina, Lia along with Pidge were in a trance...as if they all were caught redhanded."Her son?""She spent a night with the owner's son.""Pidge..." the girls said together in a mumble...staring at their best friend who was just glued in her place."Hello," Dylan walke
"What are you doing here at this time of an hour?" she asked putting the red roses on the vase.Turning to him she just realised that he was too close when she bumped into him.Holding her waist and pulling her closer, he tucked the strand of her hair behind her ear."Baby, I can't sleep without you..." his whispers were low and arousing.She blushed and he lifted her chin to meet her eyes and spoke, "Is this possible if I spend the night with you?" She didn't say anything when an idea popped up his mind and he immediately blurted out, "Come with me.""Where?" she asked as he held her hand and was about to twist the doorknob when the voice of an old lady came through the door who was pushing the door.Pidge with wide eyes quickly locked the door, silently and hushed him up."Pidge? Pidge? Are you in there? What is that noise?" the old lady asked knocking the door."Yea...yea. It's me...I'm here, Ms Green." The answer Pidge gave was
Mrs Willow never mixed business with family but when her stepson insisted she couldn't deny.Christmas was near...and as the city had snow everywhere it was a great time to cherish the Christmas spirit.People roamed around with their children and buying gifts for their loved ones.The decorated reindeers...fake and real were standstill in the streets.The fake Santa was waving the little kids...giving candies to them.At night, the decorated streets with Christmas lights enhanced the view. It was so perfect for Pidge...she was excited.The bells rang in a peal. The little elves distributing candy canes to the children.Pidge and her friends, Winter, Rosina and Lia were helping her with all the bakery items Mrs Willow has asked them to make."I can't believe he just invited me like this..." Pidge has this unusual pretty smile on her face."I think the guy is interested..." Lia the clever one uttered."You think?""I
"Pidge? Pidge?" Mrs Willow walked by, her hands flatten in the air as she looked around trying to find one specific figure."Where is Pidge?" she asked the rest of the three girls who were busy eating."Oh, Mrs Willow...Pidge had an emergency," Winter blurted out.Rosina and Lia eyed her sternly."What emergency?" Mrs Willow asked unaware."She...she..." Rosina had her mouth stuffed with cookies when she could not speak properly."The old lady she lives with called her in an emergency as she thinks that the burglar is there to rob the house.""What?" Rosina and Winter along with Mrs Willow said together."Yea didn't she told you guys?" Lia eyed them as if to say to agree with her and both of the girls quickly gave a nod."Let me call the police..." as soon as Mrs Willow turned to speak, Winter hushed her up by saying, "Oh, no...Mrs Willow. There is nothing she can't handle. If she will need anything she will call us or you...""But t
"So...when are you going to meet my mother?" he asked brushing his hand on hers.She shifted her hand and spoke, "I know your mother, already.""I mean...considering you, my fiance...you should meet her as her future daughter-in-law.""Dylan...I..." Dylan could see the hesitance in her voice.She was somewhat nervous."Don't worry... She won't reject you."His words somehow made her confident as she gave a nod."But not now...I'm planning to disclose this after New Year's eve...what say?" he asked and she agreed to it.They spent the night under the cold night wearing warm clothes and the snow slowly falls under the starry night making the view so beautiful.It was a romantic moment for both of them."Dylan...promise me this is forever..." she said with her eyes slightly twinkling."I promise you, Pidge. This is forever..." he gave a nod tightening his grip on her hand.Dylan gently kept her close to his body, they cuddling
Sighing in relief, Pidge said, "I'm gonna call you later..." The moment she declined the line, she turned to open the locked car.Winter had given her the bobby pin and taught her how to open the lock using the pin.She tried many times as she inserted the pin into the lock of the car but failed.Dialling the number of Winter she waited for her to answer."Hello, Winter?" "How do I open the lock?" she asked in whispered tones.She did as per Winter guided her...Finally, the lock of the car was open.Pidge sneaked in the car and tried to find the ring under the seats. When she kept on looking crouching down in the car, her fingers roaming around under the seat of the car.She didn't found the ring but felt heartbroken.What is it like to know that the person you love with all your heart gives you a very special thing and you being the careless one, lost it?Anxiety took over her heart when a tear rolled down her che
