In as much as I wanted to Kiss him, I knew I had my dignity to protect. This is is a man I met on a luxury bus twelve hours ago. Also, I have been made to understand that he has his way around women therefore I shall not fall for this temptation else I'll be added to his edless list of rakish accomplishments. "Do it. " blurtred Trevor as if he just read my mind. We were still facing each other and I swear I was begining to burn from the inside with this sudden desire. "Do what? " I retorted. "Kiss me. " he said in a slow and erotic tune. "Never. " I replied then chuckled. He laughed and turned his head facing the bus and I did the same. "You are scared aren't you? " he asked. "No not really. " I said. "You are not just attractive enough. " I added. He laughed and said "I know the problem. One. Either you are a terrible kisser or two either you are being conscious. But I'll go for point two. " he said. "Whatever. " I said. "You don't want to kiss a man who had practically kisse
A twist lies ahead
Hey! Look who is hugging me now. " said Trevor. I quickly broke off the embrace . "You know? " he continued. "Early this morning you wouldn't say hi to me now look how far we've gone. " he said and chuckled. "Hey don't feel so special. " I replied. "It doesn't mean that I'll beg you to take me along as you claim. " I added. "Let's get some sleep. It's past 3:am. We need all the sleep we can get. " he said. I nodded. Few minutes later, I heard Trevor saying to me. "You can't sleep can you? " "Uhmm am not feeling sleepy. " I lied. "Of course you are. Your eyes say so. " he retorted. "You are scared. You are scared you might get another nightmare aren't you? " he asked. "Probably. " I replied then coughed. 'Let's do this. I'll tell you about the scariest night of my life and you tell me about yours. " suggested Trevor. "Am not sure if I can do this. " I replied shaking my head in disapproval. "You can. I'll go first and don't you worry. You don't have to tell me about your scarie
"No. " replied Trevor. "What? " I asked in a low tune. "I want to grab you and kiss you so badly but I won't. " he said. I felt disappointed and said turning then turned my head around the other way. "Don't feel disappointed. " he said. I instantly felt stupid. 'How could I have begged a random guy to kiss me. Someone I barely know. ' I thought and cursed myself for being shameless. "Ugrh" I silently groaned in frustration. 'How can I be this stupid and so cheap. ' I thought. 'Damn what came over me? ' "Goodnight. " said Trevor then he fell asleep. I closed my eyes and curled up facing the other way in shame. I was just refused a kiss by a guy. 'Trevor must be thinking I've falling for him now. ' I thought. I closed my eyes in anger and was soon fast asleep. I was then tapped on my knee. "Wake up. Good morning. " Trevor said. I pressed my phone. It was quarter past 7:am. "Breakfast stand. " Trevor said pointing outside the window. The bus wasn't moving. "It's
I am glad everything is sorted and no life is lost except for Charles Wagman who is in the emergency unit. Trevor and I are okay and the fact that he didn't have any scratch makes me marvel. 'What a hell of a journey ' I immediately looked away while Trevor didn't shake. I began taking his hand out of mine so I could sit up properly. "You are awake? " he asked after I finally managed to disintegrate his hand from mine and sat wit my bed against the wall. "Yes am fully awake. " I replied with a half smile. He scratched his head with the edge of his nail and said"Hungry? " I nodded in approval. "Let me see what I can get around. " he said standing up. "They sell things around here? " I asked him. "There might be an eatery close by. I'll check with one of the nurses. " he said then left while I stared at him in admiration with a smile. Shortly after he left, Trevor returned with a plastic full of hamburgers and some fresh milk. "You sure do know how to pick
I looked to the left and saw Domn seating behind in a red limousinedriving away. As God will have it, a taxi immediately dropped some boys who were hurrying into the club. I jumped in right after the alighted and told the taxi driver to follow the lemo that just left taking a route I showed him. I have never been in a car chase before. Now this was no ordinary car chase but a life chase. I had a strong conviction that Domn and his guys got away with Trevor. "Ma'am that lemo seems not to stop any sooner. I might pull somewhere. I don't want to get into any trouble. " The taxi driver: a young man in his early twenties said to me. ""I'll pay you five thousand naira. " I declared even though I had no dime on. "Okay can you please tell me why we are trailing the lemo? " he asked. I was tensed and sweating all over yet this annoying driver won't shut up. "I just hope Trevor is okay. " I mumbled as Domn's limousine went further into the dark then stop
"So tell me. " began Domn. "This sudden fire... Girl I never saw it coming. " he declared lifting his right hand up. "You'll never see anything coming. " I told him. "I will change your life miss.. " he said. "Bella. " I quickly replied. He nodded. "I will take you to the ends of the earth, I'll crown you my queen and give you a life you never imagined. " he professed choking me as I inhale the disgusting stench emanating from his mouth. I quickly grabbed his hand from and neck and slightly pat it as he smiled. "Old fool. " I muttered. "Aren't you bothered? " I asked him while still patting his hands. It was probably 1:am and he had discharged his guards. "Maybe bothered about who I am, where I came from? or... " I was saying. "Oh come on. " he interrupted. "I don't care about any woman that comes my way. " he said. "Your family, your orientation not my business. As long as I like you and you satisfy below my abdomen. " he said smiling as disgustingly as ever. I nodded smiling
I kept panting heavily as the strange man drove me out of Domn's yard. It took me few minutes to realize I was in a strange cab with an unknown man. I began to shiver and look around scared that I might be caught up in another web of misfortune or rather still be kidnapped. The dark strange man noticed my discomfort and mumbled a "Hello! ". Who ever he was, I was certain he might be less aggressive compared to the touts I escaped from in Domn's house. Who could be this man and what was he doing at such an ungodly hour of the day? I thought and as if he read my mind, he spoke. "Trevor sent me. " he revealed. My mouth was wide opened at the mention of Trevor. "Trevor? " I asked. "Yes. " he replied with a nod. "But I thought that... As.. In.. We.. " I was stuttering in confussion. "Calm down senorita. " he said as we were approaching the city. At the mention of senorita, I was convinced it was Trevor who really sent him. Soon, he drove into t
"Why don't we live the moment? " Trevor asked me. I starred at him in disbelief wondering what he was driving at. "Listen. " he quickly said. "Tommorow, we shall get on a new luxury bus and continue our journey to GreenLand but right now, can we just relax and rest. " he said while I nodded in understanding. We needed to rest especially after our scary ordeal with Domn and his boys. "You are hurt. " I told Trevor after noticing his bruised arm. "Nothing to worry about. " he quickly said shoving off the issue. "You are hurt because of me. Domn and his boys manhandled you because of me. I am terribly sorry. " I said. "Don't bother Ella. We've talked about this right? All we need right now is rest and resources to continue our journey. " Trevor said. "Speaking on resources, the new OWEN bus leaves today and probably with our luggages. " I said. "Or maybe our luggages were razed by the fire too. We were just being hopeful." repli
I began to tremble almost immediately as Trevor's lips fell on mine. I shut my eyes then kissed him back and drifted back almost immediately. "I'm sorry. " he apologized with his head lowered. "It's okay. " I managed to reply after several seconds of silence. I took the towel, wrapped it around me and ran out of the pool. As far as we were both concerned, the swimming lessons are over before it begins. Trevor got out of the pool and joined me in the suite about thirty minutes later. I was properly dressed and sipping a cup of coffee sitting by the edge of the bed. He dashed to the bathroom and came out then proceeded to change his clothes. "You can eat if you are hungry. " he said pointing to the sumptuous tray of meal placed on our bed by the hotel attendants. I nodded and continued sipping my coffee. "I'll be right back. " he told me after getting dressed.
