ANMELDENThe sound of spoons clanking against ceramic plates filled the quiet room.I glanced at Henry.He still hadn't touched his food.Too bad, I was almost done with mine.Fucking Saturday.Today was definitely going to be boring.“Okay!” The sound of hands banging the table drew my gaze to mum.“Who’s ready to tell me what the hell is going on?” Mum asked, eyes moving from me to Henry.No response.“Will someone speak the fuck up!” She screamed.“It's nothing.” Henry bit out.Mum scoffed in disbelief.“Nothing? Ever since I came back you've both been acting like strangers. No teasing, no bickering, no fighting—”“Wasn’t that what you wanted?” I piqued in.“Peace and quiet.”She turned to me sharply.“I don't want goddamn zombies in my bloody home!”Silence.I swallowed the food in my mouth and stood up.“Where do you think you're going?” Mum asked.I raised a brow.“To my room.”She squinted in annoyance.“None of you are going anywhere till we get to the bottom of this matter, okay?”I r
Henry's POV Three weeks.Three fucking weeks of no communication or touching.As selfish as it sounded, even after pushing her away countless times. I couldn't hide the fact that I missed her.Bad.The teasing.The banters.The bickering.This wasn't like the usual fights we had, or the usual push and pull that'd end with us kissing and making up after a few hours or days at most.Rosie was serious about not wanting anything to do with me and she made that clear.At school, she wouldn't look my way, let alone talk to me.At home, we were like two strangers.She holed up in her bedroom every single day.It felt like every hope of trying came to a complete stop as soon as Denise came back.Everything became easier to hold out and harder to make up.Most days I found myself leaning against her door, listening to the soft blues that echoed from her room.And today was one of those days, only I was here to call her in for dinner as Denise asked me to.A loud groan drifted into my ears, fol
My feet carried me out of the room quickly.“Rosie.”Tears stung my lids, blurring my vision.I lowered my head, hands fisted by my sides.Keep it in, Rosie.“Please, Rosie. Just stop and talk to me.” Henry called after me.I wasn't sure where I was going, all I wanted was to get out.Disappear.“Miss Alphonse.” The change of name made me understand we were in the midst of students.I weaved past a few students in a stumbling mess.Occasionally bumping into some people.“Miss Alphonse.”Before his hands could reach mine, I pulled away. The next thing that followed was a resounding—Slap.My palm stung.The loud chatters in the hallway died instantly.Everyone stared in shock.Henry's jaw ticked lightly as he balled his fingers into fists.My lips quivered.I walked up to him, lowering my voice to a deadly octave.“I swear to God, Henry.” I said, voice hard.“You will rue the day you met me the next time you touch me.”I spun around, noticing how the crowd parted as I walked towards t
Henry's POV Belinda rushed after me for the what time today? I lost count.“Henry.” She called.I ignored her, making my way to class 3-b.“Seriously? Henry.”I hastened my footsteps.“Henry!”Fingers wrapped around my arm, stopping me in my tracks.I pulled my arm away immediately, my eyes darted around in hopes that Rosie didn't see.“Do I have to spell out the word fuck off before you get the memo?” I hissed.She shifted back in surprise.“What's with the sudden attitude, Henry?” “Attitude?” I echoed, tone laced in incredulity.“I've been trying to tell you to quit this incessant pursuit of yours as politely as I can but you still choose to ignore it.”Her eyes took on a glassy sheen.Christ.The sound of a door slamming open drew my gaze to a petite figure rushing out and another hot on her tail“Come back here, Rosie!” Lena screamed.Shit.“Henry?” Belinda called, staring at me.“Lena has a boyfriend, everyone!” Rosie screamed, with a carefree smile on her face.My gaze fixed o
The day just started and Henry was already showing signs of improvement by keeping his distance from Belinda.I sat on my desk, dangling my legs while Lena sat in my chair.“That's a very different attitude from yesterday…” Lena hummed.“And a lot more hickeys too.”I raised my turtleneck sweater higher up, then shot her a glare.“Are you a witch or what?”“You just confirmed it did happen.”Annoying bitch.“You're such a slut.” She snickered.I gave her the middle finger, she only laughed in response.“Are you actually going to tell me what's going on between you and your bodyguard or what?” I asked, turning to Lena.She froze, but only for a millisecond.“Nothing.” She shrugged.“I'm not stupid, Lee. I have eyes, you know.” I muttered.“I guess he's discreet enough not to leave hickeys.”Her face burned in embarrassment, then she began twirling her hair in her fingers.“I should be asking if you're the witch.” I smirked.“You just confirmed it.”She gasped in disbelief.“Rosie.”Th
My back came in contact with the tiled bathroom wall.Henry heaved me up, pressing himself flush against me, while one of his hands held both of my wrists up.He nibbled on my bottom lip, moving his cock up and down my wet folds.If only he'd just sink himself inside of me.His lips left mine for a moment, then latched onto my neck.Sucking.Biting.Licking.Arousal dripped down my thighs as I rubbed my wetness against his hard length.Fuck I was aching to touch him.My fingers twisted in his grip, he responded by tightening it while his other hand trailed down my body.“Henry…” I moaned, breathlessly.He groaned, just as his finger cupped my breast and gave it a light squeeze.His fingers left my breast then trailed downward… going between us—“Fuck.” He hissed, rubbing my clit.“You're making a mess on my cock, Rosie.”Oh, God.“Do you want my fingers inside of you, Rosie?” Henry whispered.I nodded, frantically.“Use your words, sweetheart.” He said, pushing in slightly, then out.
