Chelsea

I was fixed staring in disbelief at Aldrich as he spoke with Mark.

I couldn't believe it was him, but he was here in flesh and blood. A sense of relief washed over me as I stared at him throw daring words towards Mark, and a sense of lust, starring at his angry form. He looked incredibly sexy throwing cuss words.

I shook my head, trying to get rid of the thoughts I've been constantly having about him.

“Get down from the car Chel, I'm taking you home.” , Aldrich's voice pulled me out of my little fantasy, bringing me back to the pool of his grey eyes.

“What?”

“I'm not letting you stay another second around this….” He threw Mark a disgusting gaze, trying to find the right words to describe him, but found none.

“Just get down Chel.”

“She's not going anywhere with you. I won't let you force your ways on my girlfriend. She's got me now, so you can't bully her anymore.”

“Bully?...” He said, giving a dry chuckle. “...you make me laugh.”

“Yes, you're nothing but a bastard who can't keep his dick in his pants without…..” Mark was retorting with the most reasonable comeback of his life, but I was tired of their useless bickering.

“Can you two stop behaving like children and stop this nonsense? I won't sit here and watch you two fight over me like I'm a piece of property to be owned. I'm going home with neither of you. Have fun getting to know each other.” I said before kicking the door open and coming down.

I huffed in anger, and headed forward, using my eyes to search for a cab, but I didn't get far when I felt strong hands hold me back. Jolts of electricity shot through my body, making me a bit weak in the knees. I would never forget who the hands belonged to even if I lost my memory.

He pulled me towards him, making me stare directly into his eyes. He knew how much his touch affects me, and he is using it to his merits.

“You're coming with me whether you like it or not. Do not make me repeat myself, you know better than to do that.” He said in a low dark voice, moving his eyes from my eyes to my lips then back to my eyes again.

“She's not going to go with you, not on my watch!” Marks voice interrupted the sexual tension that was already growing between us, making me jump back in surprise and pushing Aldrich away.

“You don't own me, so discard that delusion of a thought that I'm going to go home with you without a fight. I'm going home with neither of you.” I replied with a ferocity I didn't know I posses.

I had put my feelings on a strong leach before I could look him in the eye and make this statement. He was about to retort when Mark interrupted him again.

“You heard my girlfriend, do not try to stop her again.”

“I've heard enough of your nonsense talks.”

The sound of fist against flesh resounded in the quiet night. The sound got my attention, but it only made me turn my head, nothing more. I left the two men bawling with each other and just headed home.

**** ****

“Chel, are you okay? You look a bit sour.” My father asked during breakfast the next day, noticing as I picked at my food.

Having another of those dreams about Aldrich is enough to put me in more than just a sour mood.

“I'm fine dad. I guess I woke up on the wrong side of the bed.” I replied, forcing on a smile. Aldrich kept his gaze on me, I could notice him from my side eye since I refused to turn my gaze towards him.

“You've been waking up on the wrong side of the bed a lot these days. Are you sure you're okay?” Noami asked, throwing me a look of concern.

“I’m fine Naomi. It's probably just as a result of our exams and my grades dropping. I'll get back into my groove soon, thanks for the concern.” I replied, throwing her a genuine smile.

I definitely cannot betray the love she has for my father because of the one I'm developing for her son, I just have to do it for their happiness.

Breakfast was slow and long, and the table was awkwardly quiet. Aldrich kept throwing me looks of concern, but whatever he might've wanted to say, he swallowed it.

I left the table without finishing breakfast, and I was thankful nobody asked me why.

“Hmmm you look sexy in everything that you do. Even now that you are studying ……”

My head snapped towards my door at the intrusion of Aldrich's voice. The baritone of his voice sent good shivers down my spine, and I was suddenly nervous being in the same space with him. I was in my room studying for a paper I had the next day when he intruded.

“What are you doing here? Have you forgotten my father and your mother are around?”

“They left the house a few minutes ago. We have the whole house to ourselves.” He said in a dark tone, drawing every word that came out of his mouth. I could feel the fluids that gradually pooled my panties.

“Wake up from your dreams Aldrich Timber, it can never happen.” I said, masking my lust with a firm tone that was not so firm.

“It can never happen, but you kissed me, and you wanted more had I not pulled back, right Chel?” He said, holding a smirk on his face as he approached me.

“I wasn't in my right senses, and you used it to your advantage. That day was nothing but a mistake.”

By now, he was already standing close to me. He bent down beside me to meet my height as he pulled my face to look into his dark orbs.

Desire, Lust, and sincerity was what was dwelling behind them.

“Deny all you want Chel, but I know you want me as much as I do. You just need to say the word and I can make your fantasies come true.” He said, using his thumb to graze my lower lip.

“Even now, I can hear your erratic heartbeat and how you smell down there. Enough fluids to make me know you smell like pineapples.”

I was lost in his eyes, drowned in his words and drawn to his body language, when a voice pulled us away from each other.
