Sunlight peeked into the room through the curtains, maybe that was what woke Adrian up, or maybe it was the dream that Jade was in his bed cuddling so closely to him so comfortable and peaceful especially since she was safe.for a while, he didn't do anything he didn't shake he didn't even try to open his eyes afraid that the weight pressed against him wasn't real. she shifted, pressing her smooth face on the crook of his neck. shivers ran all over him, he loved the feel of it.wait! he wasn't dreaming he peeled his eyes open, she was actually in his room, on his bed, cuddling with him with her face stuck in his neck breathing lightly.he was relieved, she was safe and in his arms, the previous weeks had been hell probably the worst days of her life. they were too cruel to be true and to top it all her sister. Adrian wasn't surprised that Jan had always been sketchy excluding the fact that she had approached him not long before that scandal.he wondered why April and Jan hated the in
That night, he kept steering in the bed like a kid, the distance between them was more than he liked. Instead of snuggling with him, she held on tight to the damn pillow like her life depended on it, and he desperately wanted to replace the pillow . He glared at the damn thing and wished it would just vanish then his little angel would have no choice but to run into his waiting arms. Adrian hated the fact that he had to fight for attention with a mare pillow and he wasn't going to let it win, he tugged the pillow away from her, and half expected her to wake up and ask for the annoying pillow but she didn't wake.Instead, she reached out in her sleep, and in her attempt to pull back her missing pillow, she pulled him in instead. Just what he wanted. He got his chance. He drew closer to her and her hands wrapped them tight around him, the scent of her hair enveloped him.Damn, he was stupid, he couldn't wipe that silly smile off his face, he let out a satisfied sigh and internally pat
The body-rocking kiss ended only when they had lost their breaths, it was rough, wanting, and caring at the same time, he didn't want to redraw away from her, and neither did she. Her hands were around his neck and on his hard chest, she watched him watch her for every swell of her chest, every flutter of her eyes he was mesmerized by her. She didn't say a word for fear that it could ruin everything and she would fall back into a sickening reality.The kiss had answered so many questions for her. Why was she there in his home in the first place, why she was letting him help her, and lastly why did she end up in his arms every single time?She wanted to be around him all the time, she felt safe around him, hell she felt a lot of things about him already but she'd yet to place a label on it She was falling for him but she wasn't supposed. They were very different people entirely and their whole lives didn't even match. He was bold and, charismatic and she was shy and cold almost not th
Ever sat quietly and then it drowned on you, your life didn't have much meaning? That you didn't know where it was taking you, that you seriously didn't understand your life? It happens sometimes to some people, that's why we shouldn't judge others. Jade felt it as she sat hugging her legs with her back against her bedboard.She'd not slept a wink last night, just trying to understand herself, she tried to retrace all she'd been doing all the eighteen and a half years of her life and couldn't find a spot to drop her anchor. There weren't any remarkable events for her, something like a big birthday party she enjoyed, or a good badge in the church, not even a silver medal in the commonest of sports nothing.All she was good at was getting straight A's and getting kicked on. She didn't even have a strong relationship with her parents like she thought she had and her sister's behavior was still a stunner. Yes hadn't been the bonding type and everyone gave her space. Maybe even too much
He missed her a little too much at this point which was too early, but it didn't matter all he knew was he was driving towards Melrose Avenue to see her, she wasn't picking up her calls so calling her was useless, and that was why he decided he would go to her. His SUVs made a good sight in the street he knew and maybe it was too extravagant to visit her with huge cars he didn't care, he wanted gates to open when he got there, and better truth, that's what money did.Two blocks to her street he slowed down, a cloth hugging a mannequin caught his eye, the long-sleeved cropped blouse was perfectly what he wanted to see on her, and those big ripped jeans just the way she liked it, but with a little more styling, he chuckled deep. He signaled his men and then turned into the parking lot of the building, he got out and tossed the keys to one man signaled another to follow him. Minutes later he tucked his hands back in his jeans with a smirk on his face. He had a present for her and he lo
It was all foreign and wild and so unlike her, but she was still going ahead with it. She knew her parents were stunned. She had never been one to do things the other way around. Never. She mentally blamed it all on Adrian, but then she made her choice, not him. He made the offer and she ran to his waiting arms on her own.They sped past palm trees and beautiful sites she couldn't help but smile at it all it was a surprise outing, and it felt good to be a few miles away from home and out with him, it felt sorting. Her quiet life was starting to get interesting. He held her hand in his and kissed it."Want to get a better view?" he asked. She nodded her head dutifully. She wasn't aware he'd been watching her at the time. She warmed at the idea that she'd come across his mind. He pressed a finger on a car button, and the windows slid down smoothly. Beautiful fingers she thought then blushed to herself they always looked good, everything about him did, she thought.She stared out throug
When she woke up, she was still in Adrian's arms and this time they weren't in the carWhen she woke up, her head was on his lap, and his scent filled her nostrils. She smiled a familiar smile, she was getting used to this and she was loving it way too much, she felt hands in her hair, was doing something with her hair and it felt ticklish and sorting.With a light sound of approval, she grabbed his hand and turned to face him, Her fuzzy sight didn't make out his face properly, but she saw his pretty startled face and also felt his little jump he didn't know she was awake."W-what are you d-doing? He smiled at her " Am I busted?" He entwined their hands. "Obviously" she let out a sigh. Turning properly so she had her face up this time looking at his their eyes met and he raked his hand in her hair with his free hand. "You beautiful" She ignored it"What have you done to my hair?" His cheeks colored a bit"Just made it prettier.." He made two braids in her hair and he was thumbing the
Now that they had sorted things between them in a way, he could kiss her on the mouth a good morning kiss to wake her up and she was okay with it. She wrapped her hand around his neck as he deepened his kiss.She didn't mind his little disturbance. After they both whispered good mornings to each other, she placed her head on his chest and they both lay in a peaceful silence, as he combed through her locks with his hand. "You remember today is our last prom right?" He asked. "I do" she replied. "Don't you want to wear a dress, look pretty and dance in the lights?" "No!" She replied uninterested."Why princess?" he urged"I'm not one for dresses and parties you should know, besides, who would I dance with?""Me" he replied" I would rather not, besides, they'd rather I didn't attend." she knew most of them hated her more than before. The bullies were expelled and some of them went to jail."What makes you think so?""Shush.. Adrian" she places a finger on his lips. "I know for a fact."
