I pushed Theo's door open without knocking, if he wasn't going to have an ounce of respect for me, then I wasn't going to have one for him as well.
"What?" was the first word I said as I closed his door, he looked up from his papers before motioning for me to come closer to him with his fingers. "Yes?" I asked as I stood in front of his desk and he leaned back on his chair.
"Closer," he said and I looked at him annoyed.
"Any closer, I'll be sitting on the desk, Theo," I said pointedly and he gave me a stupid sexy grin.
"Then come closer," he said with his tongue playing on the rim of his teeth.
"What?" I whispered finally understanding where he was going with this. He sighed and got up from his chair walking over to me, he pl

"Idah?" "John?" I stared at the man that had called Xania with another name, don't tell me this is one of her victims. He looks old, he has grey hair visible with his midnight black dyed hair. He's tall, with a small potbelly hidden behind his blue button-up shirt, with a black velvet jacket over his shoulders. "Who's this?" I asked turning my head to look at her and I saw the tears brimming her eyes before she took a deep breath in and shook her head taking a step towards the man. Who is this guy and why is he looking at her like that? Like how I look at her. Admiration and fascination, but yet his look is also laced with more emotion, something that I've seen before, but have never experienced. She cleared her throat a

Theo and I were laying on the bed after our heated couch session, which only followed with another one in the bedroom. Now we laid spent and tired catching our breaths, he was a fantastic lover.I trailed my index finger up and down his chest, tracing the outline of his pecs and feeling the smoothness of his skin against my finger."Will you tell me what it is you're sighing about?" Theo asked tapping away on his phone and I looked up at him pressing my chin on his left breast and kissed my lips."I was just thinking," I said, turning my head to look back down his torso, resuming with my previous found interest, he held my hand."About what?" He asked and I sighed weighing my options. Create a fight, or tell him?"Not that yo

Zada' smile slowly dropped and she blinked her eyes shifting her weight from one leg to another. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean for it to come out like that," I said and she smiled but it didn't reach her eyes. "What are you talking about, I don't have a father," she said, shaking her head. "So stop talking nonsense, it's always been just the two of us. As I was saying-" "Please just meet him so that we can be done with this, I also don't appreciate that he's coming around now after such a long time but maybe you should meet him and tell him that you don't want him in your life, right?" I held her shoulders looking at her trying to find some sort of reaction to what I was saying but there was none. "It's only going to be us and our baby boy right, Zada?" I know I was bein

I trailed behind Theo as he commanded that I join him in his office, he looked furious, great, I was too."What was that about?" He asked angrily and I shrugged my shoulders suggesting that I didn't know what he was talking about."What?""Don't play dumb with me," he growled and I pouted my lips before giggling."You really have to be more specific when you talk to me, I do a whole lot of shit, and I did a lot today, so what are we talking about?" I crossed my arms over my chest and he rolled his eyes. "Don't roll your eyes at me.""Well, I can't help it if you're acting that way," he said and I pulled my eyebrows together."Acting like what?" I asked.

I stared at the blank canvas that waited for me to violently paint my feelings on it. I sat on the floor twirling my paintbrush in my hand while my head chin rested on my other hand. Lying down on my side, I carried on looking at the taunting whiteboard that teased me for not knowing what emotions I wanted to paint, I didn't know where to start. Zada had decided to go out for lunch with John today, and we had dinner with Travis' family later on tonight... I tried to warn her against meeting both 'stressful' factors in one day but she said she would rather deal with it all in one day. Switching my position to lie on my back, I stared up at the ceiling and traced its circular patterns with my eyes while softly singing Mirror by Little Dragon. I couldn't help but feel as if I was getting it all wrong, all that I was doing...was any of it the right ch

I watched Theo's expression change from pleased to annoyed and I giggled sitting up and pinched his cheek. "You should see your face right now," I laughed getting off his lap. "I was just playing.""Well I didn't find it funny," he muttered rudely and I laughed walking over to the door, before leaving, I turned around and put my hand on my hip."But you found it tempting, didn't you? You twitched underneath me and your pupils expanded," I said with a shrug and he rolled his eyes getting off the bed and pulling his pants up."What are you now? A fucking psychologist?" he grumbled and I smirked shaking my head."No, I think I'm your mistress, and I believe that also comes with being able to read you," I said and he sighed."Xan

"Oh my gosh, Patrick, you're so funny," I laughed at Mr William's joke. He had given me the go-ahead to call him by his name to which his wife protested but he said it was his and I was allowed to call him that. Whenever she tried to throw jabs at Zada, I would always throw a bigger one, for example, mentioning how the dull white paint made the family look boring to which Patrick would respond that they were actually planning on changing the colour. Mrs William certainly didn't like how her husband was being a loose mouth and after a few glasses of wine for him, he was very charming. The man couldn't stop complimenting Zada and me, asking how his son was lucky enough to bag a girl like Zada and how their child was going to be beautiful. I would then add fuel to the fire and suggest that we were prettier than Mrs William. I wouldn't be doing all th

"Oh, I'm so exhausted," Zada moaned as she sank into the couch resting her legs on the coffee table, her hand rested on her small baby bump and I sat on the couch opposite hers. I crossed my legs and bit my cheek to stop myself from smiling at the memory of what happened a few hours ago in Theo's car."Yeah, same here.""Talking about that, where did you disappear to?" She asked, smirking and I looked at her through my fingers."I told you, I was on a call," I said and her grin grew as she shook her head."Right, a call that made you come back with your hair all messed up and your red lipstick smudged, let me not forget to mention the walk you had after that 'call'," she air quoted and
