Chapter 15 - Priorities
“I’m coming.” I say at the door when I hear a knock for 15th time. I was taking a shower and I couldn’t run out all wet and naked. My first thought was Knox but he doesn’t come to bother me when the sun is out. He’s a vampire, only comes out when the beasts are wake.
It’s still light out so it has to be some else. I know Casey would have called first and my landlord would have left a note. Could it be Michael?
I look through the peep hole and sigh. I’m right. It’s Michael. On a different day I would have been so happy to see him but I’m too tired today. And he hasn’t called or texted me in the last 24hrs so I couldn’t care less what he did with his life.
He didn’t care if I was alive or dead the last two days all he cared about was getting drunk with the rugby team. I’m still salty over the fact that he left me to go party all night. My ego is bruised a little, I’m not surprised he did it but I am surprised. You what I mean?

“I come in peace.” Knox says walking toward my table holding up a white paper.“Funny.” I say as he pulls out a chair and he sits down. I’m at my favorite breakfast place having coffee and a muffin. I come here to reset and get some peace before I head out into the world. So the fact that he’s here is a problem, he is my peace killer.“I know that I’m not your favorite person right now, so I have to approach you cautiously. I don’t want to lose an eye.” He says smiling at me like he said something funny. I look at him like’ boy please.“Did you want something?” I ask looking at his beautiful and annoying face. I hate it when he’s playful. He makes me want to be near him and be friends.“See, I haven’t been here more than five minutes and you’re already over me.” He says making a sad face at me. He’s in a good mood today. I can’t remember

“Are you in a hurry to go somewhere?” I ask Melody when I’m done paying the bill. She raises her brows at me her walls coming up instantly.“Why do you ask?” she say and I smile. She’s always on guard when I’m around these days. It’s incredible that there was a time when she trusted me enough to go along with whatever I did.“I want to show you something.” I say and she looks at me suspiciously.“I don’t know if hanging out is a good idea.” She says shutting me down already. I want to go back to a moment ago when she was laughing and playful with me.“It’s nothing weird I promise.” I say my face blank. I want her to know that I’m not planning anything weird or back handed.“What is it?” She says interested but cautious.“Do you remember that dog shelter we fund raised for in first year?”

“Thank you for today, I had fun.” I say to Knox when we walk into my apartment. He walked me all the way from his car to my door. I told him he doesn’t have to come up but he insisted on coming up anyway. I don’t know what he hopes to achieve by coming up but whatever he has planned is not happeningI knew hanging out with him today would blur the lines a little but I really did want to see Sonia and the new center. I’m glad I went but I’m not happy with what is happening now. I can feel the strings I had with Knox getting retied. Every time I spend more than an hour with him, my heart, mind and more terrifyingly my body want to be closer to him.I know better than to let him any closer to him. But he knows the same thing too. He knows that I have a weakness for him. And he’s not scared to use that power to his advantage.“Thank you for coming with me. It’s always a pleasure spending time with you.” he

I look at the open door Melody just stormed out of. I know she expects me to walk out after her but I’m not going to do that. I’m not going to count myself out when it took so much for her to even talk to me again. I need to calm down and work my way back into her life.I’m lucky she didn’t send me packing when I walked up to her up to her this morning at breakfast. That whole conversation could have gone really wrong. I did well with calming her down and distracting her with the rescue center.I didn’t give her the time to think about being near me for too long. That always sets her off, she doesn’t trust me enough to let her guard down anymore.She just caught me off guard with the Samantha declaration; I didn’t think that she would come up today. I thought I could convince her to spend at least a day with me before my girlfriend came up. But I didn’t know that Samantha was already in play.The crazy

“Hey.” Michael says walking up to the booth at the back of Jerry’s. I finished my shift thirty minutes ago. And when he texted me to meet up, I figured it made sense we meet here. I’m too tired to go anywhere else but home so I didn’t bother making plans to meet anywhere else. “Hi.” I say looking up at hi. He moves closer giving me a kiss, when our lips touch I get the same warm feeling I got the first time we kissed. He sits next to me looking me at me. I guess I still like him but there are so many distractions, I don’t know how I feel sometimes. “How are you?” He says smiling at me sweetly. His smile is still beautiful and charming. He really is a very handsome man. “I’m tired.” I say smiling back at him, I always find his smile hard to resist. “I can tell you’re tired.” He says touching my face so softly, it makes me close my eyes. “All I want to do now is sleep”. I say letting my head rest on the backrest of the chair. “Woul

“So you dated Knox.” Michael says when we walk through my apartment door. He closes the door and whistles loudly. I turn around and look at him.“Dated is a big word.” I say and he looks at me sideways. Saying we dated is stretching it, Knox and I hung out. We were never official. What we did never had a label, it was a situationship.“So you didn’t date?” He asks that curious look back on his face. I don’t know how I feel about him being so interested in my “ex”. It makes me uncomfortable, I would rather he was interested in me.“We hung out.” I say and he nods slowly, as if trying to make sense of what I said.“Okay.” He says finally and he looks at me for a long time. I walk to my sofa and sit down. I still feel tired but I know that Michael and I need to have this conversation now; so that we won’t have to have it later on.I know he has a lot of con

“You look nervous.” Knox says to me as I walk toward his car at my job’s parking lot. It’s the end of my afternoon shift on a Friday. I’m tired as usual and I’m regretting agreeing to this trip. I’m not looking forward to sitting in a car for hours.I was hoping Knox would change his mind and stand me up but he didn’t. There he is standing next to his car, looking like he’s the king of the world.I look at him thrown by how good he looks under the night lights. He looks like he has a halo on the top of his head. He’s so tall he’s blocking the pole of the light behind him. The darkness around him makes him look mysterious.And it doesn’t help that he looks so good in a pair of jeans.“Do you blame me?” He holds out his hand and I give him my bag. I watch him place it him place it in the boot.“I told you, you have nothing to
The play boy's secret lover Chapter 23 - On borrowed time
The next morning I wake up to the bright sun filtering through the big window of the room Knox put in last night. The curtains are thin enough for me to be able to see through to the outside. All I can see is lush green fields beyond. Dogs are barking and a few people are talking.Knox was right, this place is magical. I don’t remember the last time I slept this deep. I closed my eyes last night and the world disappeared. It’s like the stress just left my body. I really needed this.I reach around my bed for my phone; I find it under one of the many pillows on this huge bed. I’ve never slept in such luxury. I almost cried in joy when my body came in contact with these sheets. My skin has never touched anything this soft.If I was home I would have slept in the nude, just so I can fully luxuriate in the softness of the sheets and the plush mattress. But I didn’t feel comfortable enough to do it.I wake up my screen and look at the t
