Steve pov:
*One week later*
I walked briskly towards the medical shop, my heart racing with anxiety. The doctor had prescribed some medicine for my mother, and I couldn't afford to waste any time.
As soon as I got the medicine, I ran towards my mother's room, my breath coming in short gasps. My father was there, sitting beside her, looking worried.
He made my mother sit up and carefully put the tablet inside her mouth, making her drink some water to help with the swallowing.
I collapsed on a chair by the side, feeling exhausted. It had been one whole week since I had slept properly, and the fatigue was catching up with me.
I couldn't leave my mother alone, not even for a minute. It was my fault she was in this situation. I was determined to keep her safe, no matter what.
Maggie had been coming in every day to
Steve pov:As I stared at the screen, frustration and anger boiled inside me."Yeah that's his phone number," I muttered under my breath.But as I turned to the hacker for help, his words left me feeling even more hopeless."It's switched off sir and it is protected with the highest security. We can't hack it, sir," he said with a defeated tone.I couldn't take it anymore. I got up, punched into the seat, and stormed out of the room.As I walked into the living room, I saw Matthew sitting there, talking to someone on the phone. He quickly hung up and motioned for me to sit down next to him."What's going on, Steve? You look like you've seen a ghost," he asked me with concern in his voice."How should I feel, Matthew? We've been searching for two days and still can't locate Oliver. It's driving me cra
Jeremy pov:"No, babe. They want us to go on a date, but who needs to wait until the night? Let's kick off our date with some fun between the sheets and then grab dinner." She suggested, teasing me by pressing her booty against my dick.I winced in discomfort, shoving her away and shooting her an angry look."I only came to this date because my parents insisted on it. Please don't try to overstep any boundaries," I said firmly."But we can still have a good time without any pressure or expectations," she replied, her tone flirtatious.I took a deep breath before speaking my truth."I'm sorry, but I'm gay and not interested in you that way," I explained, bracing myself for her reaction.She looked taken aback but quickly composed herself.“What? Do you feel disgusted by me?” I asked her.
Steve pov:As I tuned into the news, my heart sank at the sight of Jeremy holding hands with an actress.I couldn't believe my eyes. He was smiling at her like he used to smile at me, and I felt a wave of anger and sadness wash over me. How could he do this to me?I threw my phone to the ground in frustration, watching it shatter into pieces, just like my heart.I tried to hold back tears, but they streamed down my face, blurring my vision.Was Jeremy ever in love with me? Or was I just a fool to think he cared about me?As I walked past Matthew, who was scribbling something in his notebook, I felt a sense of comfort in his presence.Dad and I had been staying at his place since the incident, and Matthew had taken extra measures to ensure Mom's safety. But even with his security measures in place, we couldn't let o
Oliver pov:As I saw Steve telling Jeremy to move on, I couldn't help but let out a chuckle. The drama unfolding in front of me was just too good to be true.Watching them argue and misunderstand each other because of me was almost exhilarating.In my mind, Jeremy belonged to me and me alone. I felt that it was Steve's fault that their relationship was strained because he had been hiding it from me.I had no idea that they were even staying together. I couldn't let them continue to be together and fuck all night.I was determined to make Jeremy mine, and I would have his sweet asshole all to myself.I was confused about how Steve and Jeremy had reconciled, but I knew that Steve had done something to make it happen.Jeremy was so angry with him that he couldn't even bear to look at Steve's face. I was curious to kno
Jeremy pov:We were in the car, with the car windows rolled down to feel the breeze. I sat beside River, lost in thought about what Steve had said earlier.I couldn't understand why he would say that. I love him, but I didn't want to say it in response to a baseless suspicion. I wanted to wait for a special moment.Suddenly, River's voice broke my reverie."Jeremy, are you okay?" she asked, placing a comforting hand on my shoulder.I took a deep breath and looked at her."I'm considering your offer, River," I whispered.Her eyebrows shot up in surprise."What offer?" she asked.I wiped my tears and met her gaze. As realization dawned on her, I spoke again."Let's be fuck buddies...Only for pleasure, no feelings. I want to be carefree," I said, try
Jeremy pov:"I'm sorry, River," I said, my voice laced with concern."You don't seem to be in the right state of mind. It's not a good idea to do this. You'll only regret it in the morning. Why don't you just go to sleep?"Her voice was shaky as she replied, "Jeremy, I really need it. I need to forget all this. Please, can you help me?"Her eyes were filled with desperation, and I knew that she was going through a lot but this wasn't right."I don't think it's a good idea, River," I said, trying to reason with her. "If you do it, you'll only end up feeling worse."She opened her mouth to protest, but I silenced her with a stern look."Listen, River," I continued. "I know I acted impulsively earlier and tried to have sex with you, but after hearing your story, I regretted it. Let's not do anything we'll regret in the morning."
Jeremy pov:As I looked into Sebastian's eyes, I felt a shiver run down my spine. His touch on my cheek made me recoil in disgust, but he seemed unfazed by my reaction.My hands were tightly bound in handcuffs, and my attempts to free myself only made the restraints feel tighter."Let me go!" I shouted, desperation creeping into my voice."I will," Sebastian replied calmly, "but first, I need to give you a warning."My mind raced as I tried to figure out what he could possibly want from me. I knew he was a dangerous person, but I never imagined he would come after me."There are people who worry about you," he continued, his hand now caressing my hair. "You're lucky to have such caring friends."I knew he was talking about Oliver. But Sebastian's words held a sinister tone that made me doubt his intentions."Don
Jeremy pov:I held her hand tightly and looked into her eyes, desperation evident in my voice."Please, river. Help me," I begged her."But Jeremy, you will regret it. You don't want this," she cautioned me, concern etched on her face."I'm so sure, river. I want it," I insisted, my heart pounding in my chest.She smiled softly at me and pulled me into a hug, patting my back as I struggled to hold back tears.I needed a distraction, anything to forget the pain that consumed me. I couldn't continue like this; my heart felt like it would burst at any moment."I can't do it, Jeremy. I learned my lesson because of you," she said firmly, her voice filled with conviction.My face fell for a moment, but I smiled at her nonetheless.She had learned what was right for her and was being lo
