Inevitably His

Chapter One Ivy Cole's eyes pierced through my soul and I just lost track of time for a while. His gaze was soft and mesmerizing. A mixture of warmth and something I could not put into words.  As if the blue of his irises calmed all my erupted senses  Who would have believed a single look could feel so good...  A few hours earlier             It was a long day at North High Carolina's University and I was exhausted after my morning classes. Therefore, I decided to go freshen up before heading home. I was in my last year already, which meant this year was final graduation.On my way out of the restroom, I received a text from my unrelated cousin Brad asking me to stop by the library so we could hang out for a while before heading home together; since he was

Chapter Three Apparently, there was traffic that day, and the road to our destination seemed unreachable in this crowd. We haven’t even reached the first station stop yet.  Brad was still talking on the phone; in fact, he was on the phone the entire time and didn't notice what was happening around, He didn't mind the crowd and unsteadiness of the transportation.            The bus moved again slowly increasing the speed to reach normal.  The road must have been clear all the way until our first stop. From North High CU to where we lived we still had two more stops to go. Luckily, a bunch of students took off at the first stop  which left more room for us in the bus. "Ah finally some space" Brad motioned to Cole and I and we followed him to the free gathered four seats, of which one was taken already.Brad comfortably took place next to the girl alread

Chapter Five Cole Flashback" You both would make the perfect match" Brad tipsily said showing me a picture on his phone , he thought he did, actually he just lit up the screen and showed me his wallpaper , a picture of his beloved Beyonce. "And you're drunk!" "I'm not" He waved me off shaking his head; he stopped doing so when dizziness hit him. It was as clear as water that he was way too drunk" Yes you so are, Brad come on look at yourself man, you won’t be able to walk after this" I pointed  to the glass of  neat whisky he held in his hand, hoping to talk some reason into him"Okay, I am not... I mean I am!" He said in between hiccups, I chuckle; he was unbelievable at times."I'm serious though,” He added on my amusement "You were suppose

Chapter Seven The day after the one in the library, Cole and I had fixed a time and place in order to accomplish the task I was given. We agreed on meeting at noon in class .I had to bring my painting tools and set everything on the table, hence I arrived a little earlier than he did.  I have always favored being early because it gave me time to do things my own pace; I hated to rush the last minute. So I unpacked my paint and tools and by the time Cole pushed the classroom door open, I was already all set and ready to begin"Sorry; I'm late?" He said letting his backpack slide over his shoulder, It seemed to me more of a question than it is of an apology"Sorry; I'm early?" I said bashfully, however I managed to smile to hide how nervous I was seeing him smile"So tell me what should I do?" He inquired with a small smile that made me hold my breath for some reason "Err... you just sit there as naturally as possible

  Chapter Nine Ivy I tossed and turned in my comfortable bed yet unable to close my eyes, looking at the hanging lamp in the ceiling.  I couldn't bring myself to sleep for two interminable nights. While I helplessly tried a hundred times to shut my brain off but it was of no use. I tried everything  but  my mind  was repeatedly  evoking  Cole,  his  blue irises, his touch , everything about him and the way he made me feel.The way our lips tasted one another, the shivers and the Goosebumps I sensed all over my skin. I still feel the heat of his touch involuntarily, I feel feverish and I guess it’s not cold related.I couldn't believe what we did and the way I was drawn to him like a bee blindly transported by the scent of an unfolded red rose. How my body responded to him how I craved him. I closed my eyes, shook my hea
