“I-I think I love you, Arianna,” Pierce confessed.

Arianna was caught entirely off guard by Pierce’s confession and was rendered speechless. Her mouth hung in disbelief. While she appreciated Pierce’s sentiment, Arianna felt it was too soon to exchange I love yous.

“From the look on your face, I can tell that’s not what you wanted to hear,” Pierce sighed, standing to his feet. “I don’t expect you to say it back. I just wanted to tell you how I felt.”

“I see...are you sure?”

“Am I sure about what?”

“That you love me.”

“Are you seriously going to ask me that?”

“I’m not the one that said, “think.” I’m just trying to get some clarification. When someone says, “I think,” generally, that means they are unsure.”

“Okay. It’s clear that you don’t feel the same way, Arianna, and that’s fine. I didn’t expect you to in the first place.”

“Pierce, it’s evident you don’t know how you’re feeling.”

“I’m not going to sit here and argue with you. Shit, I take it back. Are you happy now?” Pierce angrily

    “I got two turkey and dressing meals with two sides of pumpkin pie. Is there anything else I can get y’all?” the cheerful waitress asked, setting down the plates in front of Arianna and Pierce.“I think that’s it, Barbara,” Pierce answered, getting the woman’s name off her nametag.“Just holler if ya need me, and Happy Thanksgiving.”Arianna nodded and dumped her mushy cranberry sauce on top of the dressing. The couple remained silent as they moved their food around on their plates. Arianna had lost her appetite, and the food in front of her didn’t appeal to her. Pierce’s jaw hurt from a punch he received from Harry, knocking one of his fillings out.“You should eat, Arianna.”“I woke up this morning knowing I would be feasting on a five-star gourmet Thanksgiving dinner,” Arianna complained.“Stop complaining and eat your food. Some people wished they were lucky enough to eat at Denny’s.”Arianna brought a scoop of dressing to her mouth and began crying. The shit was dry, and there wa

    “It seems that we need to talk. Both of you, get the fuck back in the room...NOW!” Harry snapped.Arianna knew Harry wouldn't shoot her, but she quickly complied. Just because he wouldn't shoot her didn't mean he wouldn’t hesitate to put a bullet between Pierce’s eyes.Pierce tugged Arianna as close as possible once they found their seats on the plushy bed. Pierce’s mind momentarily took a break from his impending doom to appreciate how nice the mattress was. He would make it a point to ask the Vanderbilts where they purchased the mattress. It felt heavenly, and something told him that maybe Arianna wouldn’t snore so loudly if he had a bed like this. He wouldn’t mind dying on this mattress.“You know? You two actually make an attractive couple. Look at you, Pierce. Your tie matches her dress perfectly. I bet you’re matching right down to your panties,” Harry teased.Arianna’s eyes ticked away for a split second, telling Harry everything he needed to know.“You’re not wearing any panti

    “Did they really need to send a Rolls-Royce Phantom limo to pick us up?” Pierce complained.“The Vanderbilts are extravagant. Wait until you see the house.”“How many times have you been over?”“A couple.”“Let me guess, you have a designated room there,” Pierce drawled.“It seems I have a designated room wherever I go,” Arianna replied with a smirk.“Come sit,” Pierce offered.“I’ll pass.”“Come on. The partition is up,” Pierce argued, trying to get Arianna to straddle him in the limo's backseat.“That’s gonna be a hard no for me.”“Why?”“Because you’re wearing black pants, and I don’t have any panties on, so if you want my cum to stain the front of your pants, then just say the word.”“I’m more than okay with that,” Pierce chuckled.Arianna scoffed, “Of course you are.”“Back to my question from earlier, will you accompany me to the Jameson’s anniversary party? Or do you still plan on going with Harry?” Pierce teased, making Arianna giggle.“I would love to, but I can’t.”“Why not?

    “Are you nervous?” Arianna asked, securing the earring in her ear.“Nervous? Of what?” Pierce asked as he pored over his selection of luxury watches.“Of spending Thanksgiving with the Vanderbilts.”Pierce scoffed. He didn’t have anything to be nervous about.“No, I’m not nervous. The Vanderbilts are regular people just like you and I.”“Keep believing that if you want. It’s not too late to change your mind.”“I’m good, Arianna. Call me crazy, but I feel that you don’t want me there.”“What would make you say that?”“You keep trying to give me an out.”“That’s not it at all, and I’m sorry if I made you feel that way. It’s just-”“Sit down. Let’s talk about it,” Pierce said, leading Arianna to the bed. “Tell me what the issue is.”“It’s just...I know they’re not going to be fond of you,” Arianna lowly confessed, causing Pierce to raise an eyebrow.“What do you mean they won’t be fond of me?”“They ship Jessana pretty hard.”Pierce blankly stared at Arianna, desperately trying to piece

  • Barely Legal   The Sleepover II

    “Um...my bad. That plot twist got me. Woman, you gotta warn somebody before you drop bombs like that,” Patrick chided.“He’s not my biological brother. I was adopted by the Stevens’ when I was 11, and that’s all I will say about that.”“Trust me. You don’t want to hear all the gory details,” Amber warned.“Amber, repeat some slick shit at my dinner table, and it’s just gonna be me and you,” Jynelle sinisterly warned.“Jynelle, you don’t want none. You gonna mess around and get your collarbone broke again.”“Do you need me to gas up the jet and fly Gavin out here so you can get some dick because you’re acting like a real bitch tonight!” Jynelle seethed.“As lovely as that sounds, that’s not practical. Gavin is on his first solo mission, and I haven’t heard anything back from him. I’m nervous and worried, and I just want him to be okay. May I be excused from the table?” Amber asked, almost in tears.“Yeah...go ahead. I’m sure he’s fine. He learned from the best," Jynelle soothingly said

    “Pierce, you can stop asking me if I’m fine,” Arianna sighed once they sat at the Stevens' dining room table.“I just need to know. It’s not often someone orders the execution of their parents. We are supposed to be communicating better, and part of that is being open and honest about our feelings. I’m sorry if I don’t believe that you’re fine.”“Can we borrow your study?” Arianna asked Jynelle.“Don’t do it!” Dallas warned. “I barely escaped with my life the last time a woman asked me to “talk” in the study. Lift the rug, and you’ll see a bloodstain on the hardwood floor.”“Dallas, hush before you end up in the basement,” Jynelle sassed.Dallas closed his mouth, knowing he didn’t want to end up like Arianna’s parents. Arianna and Pierce shot Dallas a pitiful look, most likely feeling sorry for him, but Dallas didn’t mind. He loved it when his woman was bossy and in charge. It was a complete turn-on, and he would have her submit to him on her hands and knees after dinner.Jynelle knew
