ALINA’S POV

Of all the things I expected… it wasn’t this.

“Oh hey, neighbour!” he grinned. Amidst the slight smoke in front of him that is. “You’ve decided to come out of your cave, huh?”

Cave?

I didn’t even respond to him. Couldn’t do it if I wanted to, something else had taken over my attention. The environment. The same environment I’d been living in, took a scan of yesterday, last night and currently looking around right now.

Everything was different.

    ALINA'S POV "Jordan," I called, surprised from where I sat. Eyebrows creased. "What are you doing here?"Cleo gave way, he stepped in, shut the elevator. Gaze firm and neutral as usual, but I knew he had reservations. Just didn't say it."Ma'am," he addressed, "I'm here to pick you up.""Pick me up. Pick me up to where?" I rose, setting my glass down. Cleo quickly walked beside me, held my hand. "What is this exactly? Is It that bitch throwing weight around? She knows??""Knows what? She doesn't." I immediately refuted, facing Jordan. "What is going on? You've never come in here before, where do you want to take me to?""I can't disclose. Boss's orders." He stated, "Boss's??" Cleo and I looked at each other, "Why is your boss sending you to a woman's apartment at night, her apartment." She gestured at me, protective. But Jordan already looked impatient, not wanting to answer anymore questions."The boss has something arranged, asked me to bring her to it. We have to leave now.""N

    ALINA'S POV The next morning was nothing short of a mess. Not the regular kind though, the more...toes curling, back naked against the elevator as you wondered what the hell you just did.That kind.And it was with that mood I used to quickly clean everything up. The sheets, covers, wine glasses. Almost like I was trying to erase evidence. Evidence of what we'd done.It wasn't like it was our first sex or meet up or wrong doing behind his fiancée's back. But something about this felt different.I felt different. And so did he.Cause by the time I was ready, clothes on and heading to work. Himself driving past with Jordan, my phone buzzed with a text."Race you to the office.""Race me?" I said out loud, laughing lightly as I waited for my cab. "You know very well, who's going to win this game. And it's not me." I sent him.A response coming almost immediately,"Is that an excuse, I hear?""Scared of a little game, brown eyes? Don't worry, I'll give you a present if you win."I scoff

    ROMAN'S POV Never thought I'd find myself in a situation like this. A moment like this. This absolute disbelieving state of her in my arms, face buried deep in my chest, body entangled with mine, radiating heat all the way to my senses. Brown hair sprawled everywhere but the small gorgeous face belonging to her. The face I couldn't stop staring at, stroking and wishing to everything that could hear that this wasn't real. That we weren't here right now. I wasn't lost, begging the morning wouldn't come so fast that she'll wake up, get up, leave me. Alina. Alina Monroe. I had dinner at her place. Cooked for her, drank wine. I never take wine. Never drowned in such pity excuse for alcohol. Yet I found myself doing so last night. Indulging her. Or she was indulging me. Messing with my head, looking all warm, cute and so familiar. So, so, familiar. How old was I getting messed up like this? Getting wrecked by someone so small, so petite and strangely so unforgettabl

    ALINA'S POV I caught the soft tug of his lips as he finished drying my hands, putting them down and meeting my eyes, my hair. His hands reaching out on instinct and tucking a few behind my ears.I swallowed again then.Feeling... feeling...I didn't know what I was feeling, but it was good.His eyes caught unto my lips, staying there. Our forms not far at all from eachother. Then he reached out. Right at the edge of my lips, his own lips tugged fondly.Wordlessly he touched the edge of my lip, feeling it out and rubbing slightly above the front where my eyes were. My heart throbbed in my chest.Then he said it."You haven't changed one bit, brown eyes. You're still a messy eater."He showed his finger that was at my edge, traces of sauce on it. I blinked. Panicked.Rushed to clean it off but he beat me to it. "Don't worry. It's like this is the first time."It wasn't.He often did this too. Back then. When we were together. Young.Why was I thinking so much of back then??I pulled aw

    ALINA'S POV "What about movies? Watching movies."We both looked at the screen, laughed at the abandoned one on there. "Alright, next, what about novels? You liked reading novels didn't you?"Hmm."All those murder books."“What murder books?” “The ones where somebody died in chapter one and you spent the next three hundred pages accusing everybody then calling me to tell me all about it in between.""What?" I laughed out, he chuckled. "I didn't accuse everybody. Just some. I didn't call you that much either.Still though, I don't think I've read in ages. Held a book. Something that isn't clients projects or academic courses that is.""Model employee," he taunt, I pushed him off a bit, rolling my eyes."Alright, what about puzzles? Jigsaw puzzles.""Nope."“Finally admitted they're pointless?”“That's not it, I assure you. I just haven't done those in a while as well.""Hmm. Swimming." He shot, "What about swimming?"I almost laughed at that one now, "If sitting by the pool counts
