I went back to work because I needed to see Adrian. We had to talk.

I had messed up. Calling what we shared a mistake… I knew I shouldn’t have said that.

But when I got to the restaurant, he wasn’t there, and by the end of the day, he still hadn’t shown up.

That unsettled me. Going home like this meant no sleep.

I pulled George aside. “Do you know where Adrian lives?”

He gave me a look. “No.”

I rubbed my eyes in defeat.

“But there’s one person who might,” he added.

I leaned closer. “Please help

    Benita came running back, slightly out of breath, my bag in her hand.“Sorry,” she exhaled. “That idiot almost ruined the strap. Come on, let’s get you home.”Back home, she helped clean the bruises on my arm, and I winced from the sharp sting.“Why did you run after him?” I asked. “He could have hurt you. It was just a bag.”Benita scoffed. “Please. I can handle those petty thieves. Growing up where I did taught me a thing or two.”She paused, then grinned. “And besides, it’s not just a bag. I don’t joke with my babies,” she added, copying my voice.I couldn’t help but smile.“Still,” I said, softer now, “don’t do that again. I’d rather lose the bag than have you get hurt.”She nodded, then looked at me more closely. “Do you want to talk about it?”I was quiet for a moment before finally admitting it out loud.“I like Adrian.”She snorted. “That part is obvious. You already texted me.”I groaned. “That message wasn’t meant for you.”“I figured,” she said, laughing. “So what happened?

The place has been too quiet without it.”“Thank you,” I said quickly.He disappeared and came back about twenty minutes later with an address scribbled on a small piece of paper.I took it, relieved. “I owe you one.”I told Benita to head home without me. “I need to run an errand.”“I can come with you,” she said immediately.I shook my head. “It’s not that kind of errand.”She gave me a suspiciou

    I expected Adrian to show up at my place, just like the last time.Maybe not with a peace offering this time, but something. Anger. A warning. Punishment. Anything. But nothing like that happened.One day passed. Then two.No messages. No calls. Nothing.On the morning of the third day, I finally asked Benita.“Has Adrian asked about me?”She shook her head.“Is he acting weird or anything?” I pressed.She gave me a look. “If you’re asking whether he’s affected by your absence, I’ll be honest… no.”I didn’t think it would get to me like that.“He’s actually been cool with everyone like usual,” she added. “Seems perfectly fine to me.”I frowned.Benita just laughed and walked away.I stayed home a little longer out of stubbornness, but by afternoon, I got tired of it. I missed everyone, and I wasn’t about to stop showing up just because of Adrian.Even though a quiet voice in my head kept calling me out on my own lie.Because the truth?I was going to see him.The moment I got to work

    I dropped the flowers on the counter and found myself walking straight toward Adrian’s office.By the time I realized what I was doing, I was already pushing the door open. He didn’t look up. He didn’t even acknowledge that someone had walked in. Like I wasn’t worth the glance.I sighed and took a seat anyway.“Adrian… it’s not what it looks like.”He kept typing on his keyboard, completely ignoring me.“Benita and I just ran into him yesterday at the store. He asked for my number, and I didn’t give it to him, I swear. I didn’t even know he was going to send flowers.”Still nothing. It was like my words weren’t even reaching him.“Adrian,” I called again.This time, he slowly looked up. His expression gave nothing away.“Why are you explaining this to me?” he asked.That caught me off guard.“Oh…”The word slipped out because the question left me speechless. I didn’t even know why I felt like I owed him an explanation.“I just thought you’d want to know,” I muttered.“I don’t.”His to

    Adrian was the one who broke the kiss, and for a second, neither of us moved.My lips were still tingling, my heart racing like I had just done something reckless… because I had.I opened my mouth to apologize, but before I could say a word, he placed a finger gently against my lips and shook his head.That single gesture shut me up completely.The rest of the show passed in a blur. I wasn’t even sure what songs were performed anymore. All I could think about was him, the way his lips had felt against mine: warm, firm, and addictive.My mind kept replaying it over and over again, and it didn’t help that Adrian was such a good kisser.I didn’t even know a kiss could feel like that.We kept stealing glances at each other for the rest of the night. Nothing was said, but everything felt… different.Even when he was driving me home, the silence between us wasn’t empty. It was heavy.Unlike the way I talked non-stop on the way there, I was completely quiet now. For once, I had nothing to sa

    I talked about that concert so much that by the time the day finally came, Benita was practically thanking God.“Finally,” she threw her hands in the air, “some peace and quiet around here.”I laughed, already dressed hours ahead of time, pacing around my apartment in an attempt to contain my excitement.The moment Adrian texted that he was outside, I grabbed my bag and rushed out.He was leaning against the driver’s door, his attention on his phone. But the second he looked up, his eyes darkened slightly as they took me in.Blue rugged jeans, the kind with more rips than fabric. A black tank top that clung just enough. On my feet were clean white sneakers that tied the whole look together.He exhaled slowly. “You really like showing skin.”“It’s a concert,” I replied. “The lighter you dress, the better. There’ll be dancing, singing, jumping, and sweating.”His gaze dropped to my jeans. “It looks like you own these in different colors.”I grinned. “I do.”He took a step closer.Then a

    After I walked away from Liam on the rooftop, I didn’t look back. But God, I felt his eyes burning holes into my back until the elevator doors closed. The music, the lights, the people, they all blurred into static noise. Inside, I was a tangled mess of want, fury, and confusion.I didn’t even noti

    He stood there, his gaze trailing slowly from head to toe. His face gave nothing away, but something fierce flickered behind his eyes.“I wasn’t planning on interrupting,” he said finally, “but I couldn’t ignore the live performance.”I cleared my throat, my face flushed. “I was just…cooking.”“Rig

    The sheets were soft, the room quiet, but my thoughts kept circling back to his mouth on mine. The way his hands had held my waist, like he needed to feel something real. That kiss.Our third kiss wasn’t about heat or curiosity anymore. It was desire, raw and undeniable and neither of us was brave

    Liam’s gaze hit me like a slap.Sharp. Cold. Furious.For a second, I forgot how to move, and how to breathe. I was still bent slightly forward, Mason’s hands on my waist, my body caught in the rhythm… until It wasn’t. I straightened so fast I nearly stumbled, heat rushing to my face as I pulled aw
