EMERSON.
I stare into her eyes as I wait for her response, and she shakes her head, "I can't show you here. "
"Why not?" My voice sounds impatient and miserable, and I don't give a fuck at this moment. That image of her has messed with my head and provoked every sentiment in me.
I've always known Eva Carson is far less innocent than she might appear to be, but goddamn; her in heels and a damn clothing that reveals too much than I handle with her body wrapped around the pole that way just makes her so fùcking naughtier. A damn sexy woman; a damn sexy woman who plays with my control like a switch.
"I need music to feel. " She tells me and I say, "I can give you music. We can play a song right here and—"
She cut me off. "You do realize we aren't back in our apartment, right?" She lifts a brow, reminding me of that very fact and I let out a sigh,

EVA. I stride into the living room to see mom standing behind the couch with her hands on her hips as she whispers some words to dad. "What's going on?" The sound of my voice catches both of their attention and they turn their heads to me, quick to mask their faces with a bright smile. "Hey, baby. You're up?" Mom smiles at me as she extends her hand for me to take it, and I do, lacing my fingers through hers as I step to her side. "Is everything alright?" I ask her, looking between her and dad, and she nods, "Of course, everything is. Why wouldn't it be?" "Because you both are looking suspicious right now? You were whispering some words in hushed tones before I appeared. " I let out and mom's gaze darts to dad's, a sigh leaving her lips before her eyes fall back to me. "I was just persuading your father about some things. "

EVA. My lips are parted with no words slipping through and the board falls from my hold as I stare at Emerson with wide eyes. "I don't just think, Eva. I know I am. " He dares to repeat his words, in a firmer tone this time and I shake my head. "You don't mean those words. " "Yes, I do, " he argues and I take a step back. "You don't, Emerson. You don't love me. You've never loved—" "It's different now, Carson. It's fucking different!" He snaps, his chest falling and rising rapidly with each thick breath he takes and I turn away from him, tears burning the corner of my eyes but I'm quick to blink them back. "Eva—" his voice echoes behind me but I don't let him finish. "You can't mean those words. You need to stop speaking this way, Ford. You need to stop fucking with my head. " "I'm just fucking with your head!" He hisses and he's

EVA."Come here, " I whisper as he moves between my thighs and he climbs over my body, draping a hand around me with his head mashed to my chest as he falls to the side."Want to go out tomorrow?" He suddenly asks and I tip my head to meet his lifted gaze. I drop my hand to his hair and bury my fingers in the soft curls. "Where are we going this time?""We could go to a bookstore, " he mutters softly as he shifts his hand from my side to my stomach, trailing his finger across the skin before he caresses my belly piercing and adds, "Pick up some books. ""That sounds tempting, " I tell him and a smile covers his face. "I know. Do you want to come with me?""The break is near its end, " I say and he nods, moving his touch to the middle of my chest. "The more for us to go. ""You've convinced me. " I agree and he lifts his head from my chest to press

EVA.Emerson stops the car at our usual spot and I turn to my side, watching him as he unfastens his seatbelt before he twists his body to my view."Had fun?" He glimpses at the books that are in the backseat and my eyes follow his before I meet his gaze and smile, "I did. " We spent hours at the bookstore and more than half of the time was me and Emerson arguing, him distracting me by saying something naughty and leaving me a mindless idiot in front of him, or him promising he has a copy of the book I picked. It was chaotic, it was wild and it was fun: a combination that I can find with Emerson Ford and Emerson Ford only."Want to go back to my place to read some of these?" Emerson's questions pull me back to the view that's in front of me, and I stare at him, waiting for him to break into a laugh, but he doesn't. He keeps the straight face on as he awaits my response and I point a finger at him, then

EVA.My heart is racing in my chest as I turn around to see my mother standing by my door with suspicion clear in her eyes."Mom! What are you doing up here?" I greet in a high pitched tone as I pray Emerson is down to the yard before I move away from the window."I heard voices, Eva. Who was in here with you?" Mom ignores my question to throw hers at me and my throat suddenly closes up at the fact that she caught me red-handed. Not exactly red-handed, but she heard voices and she saw me by the window."Um, I..." I struggle to find my words and mom makes her way inside, shutting the door behind her as she strides toward me."There was no one—" she doesn't listen to me as she peeks behind me to the window before she side steps me and I bite down on my tongue, tension floating around me.I turn my body in her direction

EVA.I cover the pot after adding the sauce to the pasta before I press my hands to the edge of the counter with a fall of my chest.I steady my feet at the sound of footsteps, and then Emerson is behind me. "Hey, " he whispers as he buries his face in my neck, his breath fanning the skin."I thought you weren't going to cook?" He queries as he turns me around to meet his view and I say, "You went to take a call, and you said to look after it. I couldn't exactly sit and watch. "He smiles and brushes his lips against my nose. "My good girl. "I drop my eyes from him to his pocket where I'm sure his phone lies before I look back at his face. "Only sometimes. ""I love both sides, " he nudges my nose with his finger before he lifts me in his arms and walks forward to drop me back on the counter."I'll take it from he

EVA. "Hey, you're back. " Emerson is sitting on my bed when I walk inside and I close the door behind me before I turn to quirk a brow at him. "How did you get in here?" "It was open. " He responds as he gets off the bed and stalks towards me. He stops only a few steps from me before he opens his mouth again, "I missed you at school. " "Uh?" "Campus. I didn't notice you left. " He explains as I kick my shoes off my feet to slip into my slippers. "Why? We don't interact at school. " "I know that Carson, " he sighs when I lift my head to him, and then he opens his arms. I watch as he waits for me to get into his arms, before I drop my bag and move into his embrace. "Things change. "He whispers as he clamps a hand to my head. "They do, " I agree as I press the side of my face to his chest, breathing in his smell.
