"Hold on a sec. Just hold on a second and explain to me what the hell is all these?" I demanded. "You have a twin brother and yet you didn't tell me? Now I fucked with another man and you're trying to put the blame on me?"
"I ain't putting the blame on you, Ashley. I accept, I fucked up. I should have told you earlier but I didn't."
I rubbed my hair frustratedly as I listened to his words. I just fucked with another man? I let another man who isn't Xavier to walk into me? I'm such a mess. A big one.
"You need to calm down, Ashley, we'll talk about this some other time."
"Some other time?" I yanked. "No, I want these conversation right now, okay?" I sighed. "You had a twin, a real twin who looks exactly like you, how on earth do you expect me to differentiate the two of you?"
"It's not my fault we have such a great resemblance. Well, he shouldn't have touched you in the first place. I'll talk to him when he gets back."
"You better do, or I do that myself." I sighed heavily. "He's a good kisser too, just like you are." I admitted.
I didn't lie when I said that, Xender is such a good kisser and fucker too. Who would have thought it wasn't Xavier in the first place. Trying to remember his face, I end of thinking of Xavier. I'm definitely not gonna find out who is who, at least not now. They both share the same tatoo on their left arm, with a moon shaped mark by the right side of their necks.
Tell me how I am going to leave with this two brothers.
"Wow, I can clearly see you don't regret having him fuck you, right?" Xavier said and I could sense jealousy in his words.
"Will he still come back tonight?" I asked, ignoring his words. I just want to be clear that this isn't some kinda game they're playing with me.
Or could it be Xavier trying to play the whole twin brothers of a thing.
"Tell me you aren't thinking about that." Xavier said, curling his fingers into mine. "I don't want him to be the reason for your change of attitude. I can tell him not to come back if you want me to."
I understand how worried Xavier is for my sake. He thinks I'm still angry at the fact he never mentioned his twin brother to me, but honestly I ain't angry any more. I was more concerned about seeing Xender again.
Though Xavier has been every thing that has ever happened to my life, I still feel like there's some thing about Xender that feels hypnotizing.
"I'll be back in a few minutes, I wanna check some thing in my office." He excused himself, leaving to his office.
My phone beeped, just then a message dropped in. I check the message and it was from Franca, my younger sister. We promised to meet up at the park avenue tomorrow for some personal reasons. She had only dropped a reminder message to me.
Not wanting to feel bored, which of course I was already feeling the boredom of sitting my ass alone in this hell of a room, I decided to go to one of the restaurant downtown. I took my car key, heading down to the parking lot.
I drove downtown, and I made a few shopping which didn't cost me up to a thirty dollars. I sat outside the restaurant, devouring my meat pie with the yoghurt. I started eating my potato chips which I had bought specifically for tomorrow. Then, I ended up eating every single thing I bought.
I just can't believe I was this hungry.
It was a minute past seven, I took my key, heading for my car when I suddenly bumped into Mariam, my highschool friend. We discussed at length. She also invited me for her wedding which will be held in three days time. I was so happy for her, likewise I was praying silently Xavier will propose to me already.
I don't know why he was delaying to ask me for my hand in marriage. Not like I've got any thing to think of, I was ready to say 'yes' even before the next seconds of asking. We exchanged warm kisses, badding ourselves good-byes and goodnight.
I entered into my car, heading back home.
The house was quiet when I walked in. Could Xavier be sleeping? I thought to myself, as I made my way up to my room.
On reaching, I heard voices from the inside. The voices were that of two people, but it almost looks like it was one single person talking in two places. I opened the door to see Xavier and Xender standing face to face to each other. They stopped talking as soon as they saw me.
For a long while, I was staring at the two brothers, trying to figure out who was Xavier and who exactly is Xender.
"Xavier?" I looked at the other. "Xender?"
The one I assumed to be Xender rolled his eyes at me. "Oh please, Ashley, it's me, Xavier."
I chuckled at the way he rolled his eyes. "I'm sorry, it's not my fault. So, Xavier and… Xender, what's the problem? I mean, you guys just stopped talking immediately I walked in."
"Well, it's nothing much. We're just having a brotherly chat, that's all." Xavier replied.
I noticed how quiet Xender was since I walked in, and how his gaze never ceases from staring at me. I tried not to look at him but I found myself doing so. Our gaze locked, Xavier seem not to have noticed since he was talking.
I felt a butterfly feeling in my stomach, a grumble sound of want slowly boiling inside of me as we did nothing to take our gaze off each other. Staring at Xender only reminded me of that night. How he had played the awesome role of Xavier on the bed. With his dazzling gaze on me, I could feel him eye fucking me.
I couldn't stay any longer, he was doing some thing to me with his eyes, some thing I still don't understand. But I knew he was winning over it. "I'll leave you two to be." I said, exiting the room before Xavier could stop me.
"Fuck!" I cursed under my breath the moment I stepped out of the room.
I didn't notice I've been holding my breath until now. One thing about Xender is the fact that his glare was fucking manipulating compared to Xavier and I almost got my panties stained.
What kind of guy would get a girl wet by mere looking at her?
*********************
It was a Saturday morning. I woke up, leaving my room to Xavier's. We weren't able to spend the night together due to the brotherly chat last night. Xavier was awake, but laid still on his bed, his gaze faced the ceiling.
"Hey," I called his attention.
He only moved his head to my direction, forcing a smile on his lips. "Hey."
"Good morning." I greeted, walking to sit beside him.
"Good morning." He greeted back. "Hope you slept well?" He asked.
"I did. What about you?" I asked back.
"Yeah."
"What about Xender?" I asked. "Has he gone to work?"
"No. He left early this morning." He replied.
"Left?" I repeated. "Like, he's gone?"
"Yes."
"Did you two quarreled last night?"
"No, we didn't. He decided to leave on his own. I do respect his decision, so I let him go."
After listening to Xavier, I felt an instant weakness pull me down. I don't know why I was feeling this way, but a part me was missing him already. Though we weren't a thing, with this, I was beginning to wonder if truly we are. I realized I wasn't just missing him, I was missing every thing about him.
And the fact that he was gone, only time could tell when I'll ever get the chance to meet him again.
I glanced at the red light that started to blink on the dashboard several miles back. I had no idea what it meant, but I don't think it was good.I was on my way to meet my friends Brenna and Nicole, and I don’t think I was more than ten miles from the town I was looking for. The scenery was beautiful, but it was unlike any thing I'd ever seen. I was born and raised in the city and couldn’t remember if I’d ever touched a tree. The car sputtered, bringing my attention back to the present. “Oh, no, no, please don’t do this to me!” I cried. “Just go a little bit farther.”The car decelerated, and then a puff of smoke came from under the hood. I pulled over to the side of the road, and it was barely crawling when it sounded like it coughed, and then nothing.I put the car in “park” and turned the key before pressing my forehead to the steering wheel. After several calming breaths, I pulled my phone out to call and found I had no reception. Hell, what was I thinking? I was in the middle
I was so scared about the fact that my car had stopped in the middle of nowhere. I had no place to run. I had to call Xavier but he wasn't picking his call. This was the first time I ever called him and he wasn't replying to me. I tried to mind link to him and it's as if the reception of this area was so blank that I couldn't even call and I couldn't even mind link either.I didn't want to witness what was actually going on between the giant beast and the figure that came to save me, so I did my best to flee from this very place. Then for a while I don't know why, but I found myself stopping. I couldn't leave without saying thank you to who-so-ever it was. And not just about saying a thank you to who-so-ever it was, I wanted to know who my savior is. Or could it be some kind of random guy who has decided to save me?I stood from afar watching, I didn't say a word. In my mind I was still contemplating whether or not to leave and call this night my lucky night. The giant fled, not wanti
Since the previous night, I haven't been able to get things straight. Even right now, I'm lost to certain things I wished never happened in the first place. I was beginning to regret why I came back, I could have just left when I had the chance to. I was so down that even Brenna and Nicole noticed how quiet I was. I won't mind if the words are coming from another man but hearing it coming from Xender made it worst. It's just like having a sword passing through your heart. I took a deep breath, sighing heavily. I couldn't believe that I wasn't even listening to Mr Green's class. Biology has always been my favorite since I walked into high school but watching myself not paying attention for the very first time in his class got me thinking. Yeah you are free to guess why because the answer is boldly written. It's because of Xender.I was still halfway away from thinking when I had Brenna whisper my name. "Ashley. Ashley?" I turned to look at her. The way she gave me those looks told how
ASHLEY'S POVI froze at the spot, wondering what he was going to talk to me about. Is it concerning that night at the roadside? Or could it be about what he had discussed with Xavier?"Yes, sir?" I comforted myself not to look terrified."Let's not act like this is our first time meeting. Just call me by my name.""Have a seat." He ushered me to sit down. I sat on the leather chair before him. I gulped the saliva lump in my throat, hiding how anxious I was even though I knew quite well that he could hear my heartbeat."I know you look quite surprised to see me here." He started."Why did you come?" I questioned. "Did Xavier send you here to keep an eye over me?""Xavier doesn't know I work here. And I ain't intending to tell him now.""So why did you come here? Out of every college in the state, why here?" He was silent, hesitating at my question. "Well, nevermind. Why do you want us to talk?" "First, I just wanna check on you."I made a face which told him how less concerned I was
After having a long unending conversation with Nicole and Brenna, I knew history had the best record of us. I never knew we could talk this lengthy for the first time since our relationship started. I have been smiling like a fool, but that just ended the moment the conversation came to an end.I found myself becoming as quiet as a snail, feeling emotionally distressed like I was before. Nicole had asked me if I was fine, I had to tell her countless times that I was very much fine, bursting into uncontrollable laughter that didn't even go any close to my lungs.Not like I even enjoyed the happiness of the laugh, it made me sick the more. Pretending to be perfectly fine when every thing isn't. That sucks.I walked into the bathroom to take my shower and after that hoping I would get some rest. But just as I walked into the bathroom, I deepened myself into the bathtub filled with warm water. My skin for the first time in hours felt cool. I exhaled in satisfaction."Babe?" I heard Xavier
Ashley's Pov"Those perfect little lips say stop, but your body is saying something else entirely." Xavier murmured roughly in my ear, turning my head so my face was inches from his own. Xavier's hot breath fanned across my face, smelling strongly of mint and some thing sweet. I had little time to collect my thoughts as plush lips fell on my own. Xavier's hand rested behind my head, holding my lips against his. For just a moment, I was completely dazzled. Xavier's lips were soft and firm, melting with my own in a way that showed ferocity and experience. It was as if Xavier was pouring his heart out, making his desires and thoughts known against my lips. His mouth moved feverishly against my own, moving in their own written language I could not decipher. Once the initial shock of losing this kiss wore off, I struggled against his grip. My body pushed closer to Xavier, while my mind protested the very thought of him touching me. And I just don't know why.~Xavier's Pov~Her hands w
Xender's PovI didn't have to ask where the scent was coming from, it was obviously clear even without thinking it through that it was coming right from upstairs. I looked up to see Ashley leaning against the protector, staring down at Xavier. She wasn't looking at me, not like I was expecting her to.From the look on her face I can tell she was emotionally drained. She looked dull and weak, more like she needed some rest too. She looked at me, but it was only for a while. I believe she's still angry with me.It's not my fault for doing what I did. I had to. I mean, I can't afford to have her cheat on my brother. I can tell how much she does love him, showing up in the picture was gonna complicate things the more.Falling in love with a guy with an identical twin isn't the type of mating any one would want from the moon goddess. I had a friend who was mated to a twin, he never knew for a long time he's been playing the whole lovey dovey on the wrong girl until he ended up getting her
ASHLEY'S POVI couldn't sleep, the thought hasn't left my mind yet. I rolled on the bed several times to force myself to sleep, even with the cold atmosphere, I still found it hard to close my eyes.Just then, the door opened and Xavier walked in. His facial expression told how happy he was. I see he must have had a beneficial outing with his brother. I was so eager to know what could be behind his happiness, so I asked."You seem happy.""Of course, I am happy." He takes off his shirt, collapsing on the bed. "I mean, I am the happiest brother in the world."I laughed. "I see. Tell me some thing I don't know." I said, giving him a listening ear."Well, Xender and I went on our normal outing at one of the bars, and guess what, we found him a partner."The smile on my face disappeared. The urge I had used to hear what he was going to say was nowhere to be found. I felt some thing ignite in me, some thing different from what I feel for him. I had to put myself together to hear the rest o
