Chapter Nineteen
"You shouldn't be so addicted to sugar." Tyler says as I empty a roll of cookie dough on the ice cream sundae he made.
This time, it was chocolate chip. I'm never having peanut butter again.
"Shut up." I retort and spoon the combo of cookie dough and vanilla ice cream sundae in my mouth.
"Whipped cream?" He asks as he shakes the can and I nod eagerly.
"You wish. What's with the craving? Especially on a workday?" He asks as he puts whipped cream on his sundae instead.
He was right.
Right after I left Mr. Robinson's house, I took him to go watch a game at the stadium. And then we'd had loads of unhealthy junk food after the game.
And now ice cream.
It's almost as if I'm trying to wash away the taste of peanut butter in my mouth...
The taste of his lips on mine...
The taste of the eventful morning filled with chaos, passion, and mistakes.

"The one superficial thing I believe in is Bigfoot." I say and sip my beer as Mr. Robinson makes an exaggerated choking sound."What?!" He says and I burst into laughter at the look on his face."You're kidding." He says, toying with his chopsticks and I just shake my head."You get to believe in the loch ness monster, so I get to believe in Bigfoot." I say and he frowns at me."I don't believe in the loch ness monster, I just don't doubt that there is a possible underwater sea creature." He says and I nudge him with my feet thanks to our sitting position.We are both on the couch, with the spare blanket draped over our bodies and sitting opposite each other.So my leg is pressed up to his side and his legs are pressed up to mine.How we ended up here is still a mystery. One minute I'm paying for the food while he is getting beer from the fridge, the next minute we

"Now this....this is a break." Ronnie moans as I watch the masseuse dig her palms into the valley between Ronnie's shoulder blades.My masseuse is working on the length of my legs and the soles of my feet, relieving so many tight spots.With just a towel draped over my body and another wrapped around my hair, I should feel exposed...but I don't.I feel relaxed and carefree."You should do this more often." Ronnie says to me, blue eyes sparkling and I scoff."You say it like I have the option to do it." I say and she giggles."But you do. Come on, you can't tell me your weekends are completely occupied.""Sadly, yes. I have a goddaughter, a brother, a father in a Nursing home. And Mr. Robinson's weekend laundry to do on Sunday." I say and sip the margarita next to me.Ronnie is staring at me with studious eyes, jus

"Marcella, it's just water. What's the worst that could happen?" He asks and I want to say,Gee, I dunno...maybe we'll end up kissing again after another near-drowning experience.Maybe I'll want you to keep kissing me passionately, just like in the kitchen.Maybe I'll end up in your bed and begging you to do things to me....except this time I won't be drunk.But I just shrug with a shy smile, too conscious of what I'm wearing as I'm standing so close to him.And too conscious of how he has no shirt on, and the way the water is gently lapping against his torso."You're gonna need to learn to love the water before anything else." He says softly, his deep, gentle voice sounding almost harmonic."Love the water?" I ask, trying not to be distracted about how his eyes are a matching blue to the pool.

Kyle's P.O.VIt's not supposed to feel this good...It has never felt this good, waking up next to someone.The last two times I'd slept next to her, I barely had time to let it all soak in.Now, that's all I want to do."Hmmm..." she sighs and presses closêr to me, with her body warm and soft.Kyle...She had moaned my name, over and over....a reminder that I'm no longer Mr. Robinson.That she isn't Anne anymore.And I don't want to care...I don't want to give two fucks about it...I just want to run my hands through her hair and marvel at how beautiful she looks in the morning.I want her to look at me the way she did last night....the way she had her dark, violet eyes on mine, evident with a rush of feelings while I entered her.Last night...

07:45 pm.I blink at the red numbers on Kyle's bedside digital clock.I didn't intend to sleep.I didn't intend to sleep for this long.I didn't intend to sleep for this long on Kyle's bed...Yawning, I sit up and observe the room. The shirt he wore today is on the bed, along with his watch and iPad."Kyle?" I call out as I slide out of the huge king-sized bed and walk bare feet out of the room....all the while remembering the heated, hurtful argument I had with Maya.I couldn't bear it.The hurtful words we said to each other...the way she stared at me with tears and anger.But I didn't mean it...I swear I didn't mean it, it just slipped out. And she had stormed off before I could apologize.Still, all those things she said about Kyle were just too much. He isn't like that....well, not anymore.I can still remember

Marcy's P.O.VWednesday...I sigh as I flip the pancake in the pan and watch the edges sizzle.After breakfast, there will be nothing else to do...no one else to see.Ty has been busy with classes ever since the burial and visiting Maya and Haley was becoming...too much.What am I supposed to do?"Marcella?" Kyle's voice comes from behind me and I quickly force a smile and a lighter tone."Hey." I say as I plate his breakfast and put it on the table.I don't attempt to look at him because I can feel his gaze on me and he would read me instantly if our eyes met."Juice or coffee?" I ask as I grab a mug and open the fridge."Uh...coffee." he says behind me and I head for the coffee maker.As I hold the jug under it and wait for the coffee t

Kyle's P.O.VShe wants to come.Of all the events, of all the dinner parties, of all the occasions...she had to pick interest in this one.Not that I didn't want her to come but...Holly is the one hosting it, in her house.One way or another, she is going to find out who Marcella is....and it's not going to be a pretty sight."Are you okay?" Marcy's voice interrupts my thoughts as she walks into my room and I turn around to find her in a stunning, red velvety dress. The dress clings to her upper body and just at the waist, it sweeps out in a charming sway that stops at her knees."You like?" She asks and turns a full 360, saying,"Your sister suggested I buy it when we went shopping." She says smiling and I realize I've missed this part of her.This giggly part.This happy-go-smiley part of her.

Kyle's P.O.V"Marcella!!" I yell louder as I run after the speeding uber car.It's no use and soon the car fades out of sight."Marcy....." her name comes out in a whisper as I stand, waiting to see if the car will return.If she would please change her mind.Instead, lightning breaks through the darkness of the night, and a loud clap of thunder follows after.She left...She is leaving me...for good.I can't force my head to think calmly enough because all that is racking in my mind are her words as I hurry back to where my car is parked.They're all standing there, in their dinner gowns and suits, staring at me.
