16. His Story
Brenton's POV
"Wow, that's deep man! But, seriously Brent, you got it bad. Looks like you really care about her. I just need you to take care of yourself man. You know, underneath those bad boys tats and piercings I know you're still you." Shane lectured me.
"Now, I don't do hugs. So how about we go out to my club, and clear the air a bit?" He got up and threw the empty beer cans and pizza boxes in the bin.
"I guess I can do club, let me shower and get change, give me ten minutes. Meanwhile, you can call Trisha and tell her that I'm good." I shouted from inside my bedroom.
We arrived at his club half an hour later. "Damn Shane, business is doing good for you. This place is packed. I never knew you're such a good businessman." I told him as we headed to the bar.
Soon as we were at the bar, women started closing in on us. I tried to be polite, but I was just

I knew something had happened, I could feel it in my bones. Just like the day my parents died. My body shivered. God! Please let this be a mistake.I tried to concentrate on making my coffee. But I kept on gazing at my phone screen. Looking at it, wishing it would stay quiet for the day. Then it rang, and it startled me. My fingertips were shaking as tapped the answer button."Nicolette my girl, I'm at your front door. Could you let me in?" Laura asked me on the other line."Yes Laura, I'll be right there," I answered.No...No...I opened the door and looked at her and I knew it. "Brenton? Please tell me he's okay? Laura! Say something..."She just pulled me to her embrace, and let me cry. "Damn it, Laura! I told you! I love him, and this is what happened. I can't do this.""Ssh...my child, he's in the hospital. He was mugged last night and was st

"Nicolette?" He called me out, his voice was raspy."Hey, you." I kissed his lips and brushed his hair with my fingers. "I've missed you, I'm so sorry about before. Please forgive me?". He wiped my tears away and smiled."If I'd known that you will be back, I would do something drastic sooner." I slapped his arm playfully."I love you Nicolette and I've missed you too." I blushed as I remembered his parents were behind me.His father coughed. "Right then, we're going to leave you two kids alone for now. I'm going to take your mother back home to get some rest. Will be back later this evening."I moved to his other side, giving the space for his parents, to say their goodbyes. "We love you, Brenton, please don't push us out." His mom scolded his hair lovingly and kissed his temple."Mum...not in front of Nikki please, I'm keeping my bad boy image here." He tried to laugh, but he gripped his abdomen and took a deep brea
Chasing His Muse 19. Spending The Time
Brenton was sleeping, I was reading on the chair by his side when his parents arrived. Hellen was by my side in no time hugging me."Hey Nicolette, thank you for waiting on Brenton. You could leave now if you want to freshen up and rest?" She asked me politely."Mm... I'm actually thinking of spending the night here. But if you want privacy, I can get back in the morning?" I was a bit disappointed. But I didn't want to take the time they had with Brenton. They sure looked like busy people."Nonsense darling, stay if you want. I just thought you might be exhausted. But if you want to stay, come and let us have some dinner and coffee. I already packed some for us. Let's sit on the couch." I put my book down, and kissed Brent, and followed her to the couch.She brought sandwiches and coffee, but she said they've already eaten on their way here. But she set up the coffee for all of us. And let me ate my sandwi

I walked his parents out of the room and said our goodbyes, then I went to his side."Hey there Brent, I'm sorry about earlier. I shouldn't have bailed out on you like that." I kissed him deeply caressing his hair."Oh Nikki, I'm loving your apology. Could you slide down lower and help my bed a little bit upward. I think the remote is on the table somewhere." I giggled at him, and helped him with his little mission, only to get caught by the nurse.She smiled at us, as she checked his vitals and changed the IV. She said she would be back in three to four hours, and to call her if we needed further assistance."She's gone now, come here beautiful." He grinned at me."Brenton, you need to rest baby." I scolded him."Please Nikki...I've been in this bed for days now. I'm bored, I need a distraction, I need you, I need to kiss you, to touch you.." He pleaded.
Chasing His Muse 21. Playing Nurse
It was day four when they finally gave him the clear to go home. He was restless and bored to death."Nicolette, you're coming home with me right?" He blurted out without thinking, then he was grinning knowing his parents were still in the room.I blushed crimson. But Hellen calmed me down. "It's okay darling. Both of you are consenting adults. I trust you both to make the right decision. But I will be glad if you could stay with him to nurse him. That is if you can stand him. If not, I will be taking care of him of course." She scolded Brenton's hair lovingly."Mum. Please. I want Nikki. You and dad can come to visit, just make sure to call ahead." He pouted. He was being a kid now. That was it then."Okay Brenton, I will stay at your place. But I have to get back to mine first. You know I still have to deal with the house." I told him while packing his things into his bag."You know, if you want I can look for a buyer for your h

"My God Brenton, what did you do?" I was opening the door for him, as he was insisting on carrying our bags.His studio was all messed up. Canvases scattered here and there. Paints, brushes were everywhere. My goodness, he had a fallout too, it was all because of me. I looked at him, he just shrugged.I hugged him and rested my head on his chest. "I'm so sorry baby, I didn't know I hurt you too.""I'm good now, let's just move on okay? I'm gonna tidy this up. Trisha is going to come here this afternoon and take all the paintings to her gallery. She's been hounding me for my works anyway. So, it's all good Nikki. I'm good. We're good." He put the bags down and let me go.He started to tidy up the paints and brushes. My tears were falling seeing his paintings. They were all mine, my face, gestures, features, bits, and pieces of me, spread on each of the canvas beautifully.I quickly wiped my

His phone buzzed. "Shit Trisha is here. Come get dressed, I need to introduce my muse to her." He kissed me and slapped my ass playfully hard. Making me wet.Shit! What the fuck?Suddenly he looked at me, knowing my aroused face. Then he quickly gets back to me and touched my sex confirming it. He groaned and kissed me hard and fast."The fuck Nikki! We have visitors. Never knew you like being slapped in the ass.""Me neither, but apparently you brought it out of me." I grinned at him. He just laughed and threw me one of his shirts to wear. He quickly got dressed, washed his face and hands, and opened the door."About time Brenton! How are you? Shane has already given me the details. So when do I get to meet her? He also told me some interesting facts about her." She hugged him and slapped his arm playfully.I was seeing their affection, it was like they were comf

He knew I love ballet, but then he questioned my love for him.Then I left ballet, Marco was disappointed in me. But he held back and said that anytime I wanted to come back, I just need to let him know.So I called him this morning, he was shocked about Collin. I didn't give him all the information about my breakdown. I just said that I wanted to start ballet again."So, is there still an opening in one of your classes Marco? I know I have to start from the beginning again, I need to build up my strength and flexibility. Tomorrow really? That soon? Yeah, I can make it. Really? Ok, see you at eight tomorrow. Bye Marco, and thank you again for fitting me in so soon."I made coffee and ate a banana, reminding myself that I need to buy some healthy food today. Brenton was still sleeping naked, my
