"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 reluctant. She put her hands on his mouth when he threatened to speak up.Dylan was enjoying it, he was deliberately teasing the girl."Let me in..." said the old lady. "Who are you with?""I'm with no one...just played some music and going for a shower. I, kind of can not open the door, Ms Green, as I'm without clothes."As soon as Pidge said this, both of Dylan's eyebrows were raised in astonishment.He held her waist gently and pulled her close.The fresh smell of peppermint mixed with gin hit her nose and she looks him in the eyes. The grip on his mouth became loose."I wanna see you without clothes," his whispers were low yet it made her feel like she was easily aroused.The old lady answered, "Okay...go to sleep, it's late."Pidge and Dylan heard the sound of steps fading away and the lady was gone.Sighing deeply Pidge withdrew her hand and said in a hushed tone, "What do you think you are doing?""I'm making you sneak away with me," he simply answered.Dylan walked to the window as he looked down and spoke, "Can you climb, Pidge?"She was quiet just staring at him when he continued, "Please don't say, you cant.""People in Anchorage climbs say better than people living elsewhere.""Yes, I can climb," folding her hands to her chest she stepped forward confidently."Good..." he made an impressing face.Pidge was feeling terrified but she did not bother to look down.All the time, Dylan whispered to her that she will be alright and that he will catch her if she falls but she kept on mumbling something under her breath.Reaching down she was only two steps away from the ground when she slipped and he caught her.Pidge fell right in his arms and he carried her bridal style...eye to eye.As if he was her prince charming...a knight in shining armour."It doesn't even happen," she blurted out, all of a sudden."Yea, I never saw such afraid person..." he said when her brows go knitted and she started speaking, "First of all, I never tried this. Secondly, what if I fell from the height? Thirdly, you..."Pidge was immediately interrupted by him saying, "Firstly, if you won't try you won't know. Secondly, I told you I will catch you and I did...thirdly, you look cute when you are annoyed."She was speechless in his arms and he carried her to his car, opened the door of the passenger seat and made her sit gently and closed it again.After he got seated to the driver's seat he spoke, "Now, if all your doubts are clear...shall we go?""But where?" asked her."The place I like..." was his reply.The car stopped on the empty surroundings...just a cliff a bit far from the car.Stars shone as sugar spilt over black marble, glistening in the sun. The night sky was such a welcome sight, appearing like magic at each sunset, promising to return as she faded in dawn's first light.Pidge was amazed... She has never seen such a beautiful sight.Although Pidge was born in Alaska she never had time to explore the parts.The last thing she remembers exploring was the Portage Glacier...the memories were faded enough.She had to bury herself in studies and work because she has no one by her side.Stars light the sky like snowflakes in the night, yet appear still, like an old photograph.Pidge smiles, feeling the wind blew her hair into a tousled mane."Dylan...this is so beautiful..." she spoke amazed."Come on... let's get you to sit," he walked towards her and hold her in his arms as he made her sit on the hood of the car.He then leaned back on the main glass of the car with her.They were watching stars with the windy night.The weather was too cold but they were all covered.Pidge was beyond happy."This is..." she was interrupted by him saying, "Beautiful...you are so beautiful."Her pink cheeks took the colour to crimson one."Why are you shy in front of me?" he asked in hushed tones."I'm not shy..." she answered back."You are..." He argued."No!""Yes!" he gave a nod certainly."Tell me you don't love me..." he spoke making her confuse when her only reply was, "No...""Means you do love me..." his grin was like he won some kind of a prize bond."I didn't mean that..." she quickly clarified."Its alright, Pidge. I love you and you will too.""I won't force you...you may take your time," he said.The night went pretty romantic for them. They sometimes hold hands, other times he kissed her cheeks.Dylan was certain that she will eventually fell for him.Next morning Dylan, first, dropped her on the bakery and then went to his stepmother.Pidge buried herself on baking and could not forget about Dylan.He made her feel like no one else ever did...Dylan wasn't any ordinary guy who lusts for her body but he was the master in romance.He made her feel like she is not only important but an independent woman which he admired.Last night was spent with some painful and beautiful childhood memories.He told her everything about his life yet she did the same.Both of them were orphans but Dylan had a loving stepmother."Mrs Willow is here!" Winter quickly informed her before rushing out of the kitchen.Pidge walked out serving the usual cup of coffee and the favourite cheesecake of Mrs Willow.Next to her was sitting a handsome man, his grins were enough to make her stunned."Don't you serve me your delicious cheesecake, Pidge?" his voice low yet deep.She walked in and came back after five minutes serving the cheesecake and coffee to the son of the boss."I didn't know you were coming, sir."As soon as she placed the tray in front of the man, she winked seductively at him.He was shocked by her bold behaviour.Sometimes this girl can be on her best side.While they were working and Dylan along with his mother enjoyed the coffee and cheesecake, he spoke, "Mm...mother. I was thinking if Pidge and the girls would help us with the Christmas party."Hearing this, both of her eyes widened with astonishment.Mrs Willow was quiet for a moment then give this suggestion a thought."Of course...""All of you are invited to our Christmas party this Saturday..." Mrs Willow spoke pleasantly.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
Dylan didn't get the chance to insert himself into her. They had oral.He eased her and she eased him.It was that moment she was gagged with his seven inches as he was pushing more and more into her mouth.Finally, they collapsed on the bed, heavy breathing."I love you..." he kissed her forehead and pulled her closer to him."Dylan...I..." she was being interrupted by him asking, "What were you doing here, by the way?""I was here to find the...""Ring?" he simply asked."How do you know?" she asked propping herself to a sitting position with her elbow."Do you really think I would not know about you being around the streets and sneaking into my home to find the ring?"Pidge bites her lower lip in hesitance. A hint of regret filled her beautiful face."Don't you worry...my darling. I have your ring," he reached out to open the nightstand and took out the ring showing it to her.The sparkling diamond shone in the dar
Dylan reached to the bakery...his fashion sense was her favourite.The way he dressed as if he was some sort of a magazine model.No doubt the man was rich and handsome.Any girl could drool over him...guess she was one lucky brat.Pidge walked to him as she kissed him. The three girls smiled at their soft romance."How are you, baby?" he asked softly and she answered, "Fine. You?""Perfect...I had the perfect last night..." his whispers were low."Okay, love birds. Enough with the whispering," Winter said in a taunting tone."What's with the long face, Winter?" Dylan asked walking forward, his hand grabbing the waist of his girlfriend."Oh, it's too much Winter..." Rosina interrupted."And yet she is heated up..." Lia completed the sentence.Winter pursed her lips in a thin line speaking up, "You can have all the romance in the world...she might not be able to meet you in a few days..."Dylan narrowed his dark eyebro
After a while remaining quiet, the old lady stood up and held her clutch as she started walking."Come on, Dylan..." she only said this and the stepson instantly followed her leaving his fiance behind.All the way to the house, she remained silent. He also, thinking of uttering a word but he couldn't.Driving to his house, he parked the car outside and stopped the engine.His mother opened the door and stepped out, slamming the door gently before walking in.Sighing Dylan hit his hand abruptly to the steering wheel.He was so sure that his stepmother would disapprove of the girl.The silence on her face said it all.Dylan had just stepped in the house when he made his way to the stairs.Suddenly his mother called out, "Dylan..."He paused and turned to walk to the living room as he just kept on standing."Go to your room and pack your bags."As he parted his lips to speak she raised her hand to make him quiet."That's
Dylan reached to the bakery where he saw the girls were sitting idle, all of their faces sad."Pidge?" he looked around then to the girls."She is gone..." Winter stated impassively.He rushed out of the bakery looking around just to find her.Dialling her number, he waited for her to answer.Dylan was getting insane...both of his hands tight on his head."Pidge!" he yelled before getting on his knees.A bleak, thin wind it was, like a fine sour wine, searching the marrow and bringing no bloom to the cheek.Pidge knew the moment she started to cry, she was alone. She cried slowly, with tears dripping down her temples and the soft hum of her own voice echoing throughout the room. She knew she existed and breathed. It was as simple and beautiful as the strumming of a guitar. Yet, she meant nothing to anyone. She was alone, sinking deeper and deeper within her own music.The rest of the world could be seen, drifting farther and farther away
