To Love and To Lust 2 62
It's been a year since Elizabeth died. Victoria went to her grave to visit her. After she moved away from New York and away from her hometown, she decided to return to visit Elizabeth. The moment she stepped into the cemetery, tears formed in her eyes. Like Deja Vu, memories with Elizabeth filled her head. They were the best of her life. Elizabeth died at age twenty three, leaving her to face this cruel world alone and it hurt her. There was no time she didn't see anything that wouldn't remind her of Elizabeth. Elizabeth has been a constant in her life and even though she was angry with her and decided to cut ties with her, she meant no harm to her. "Hi Bee," Victoria said once she stood in front of Elizabeth's grave. "It's been long," Victoria quickly wiped the tears that formed in her eyes. She sniffled a little. "How have you been? Has the weather...weather been treating you nice?" She asked, tears streaming down her cheek. "I miss you. I miss you so much that I wish that my life i

"No. Not anymore. We will talk but not here." He tells her."Excuse you? We have to clear the misunderstanding between us now and here. You can't do this and..." Mr Smith cuts her off but in not a rude way"It's not that. I want us to talk but not in this manner. I mean we are both not in the very best mood now so it won't work out well for us. When we are both in a good state of mind, we will speak. For now go back to your work. We will talk over dinner. I will pick you." He tells her. The way he spoke to her melted her heart replacing the anger she felt earlier.He was now acting like the man she liked. "Okay." She replied to him. Just as she made an attempt to leave, he stopped her. "Victoria," he held her by her wrist making her feel tingles all over her body. "Yes." She answered him. "I kissed you not because I thought you were easy to but I did it because I wanted to and I did it again to prove that to you." He tells her.She swallowed the lump in her throat before licking her

What Mr Smith had in mind at first was to take Victoria to a grand place where he would get people to decorate very beautifully and set up a table for two for the both of them with red wines, sea food, cakes for dessert and flowers but that all changed after his little argument with Victoria.He had decided to keep it simple and take her out for dinner instead to talk things out with her. He was nervous. He didn't know if he should go with his suit or dress casually. Things like this were always hard for him. Relationship was something he never did too well with which was why he didn't get into any relationship after his last relationship.In his last relationship, it was the girl who had done the most, she was the one consistent and initiating things which was one of the many reasons she left. She felt he was making it look as if she was the only one dating him when he was the one who had confessed to her.He didn't look at any woman and dedicated his time to his academics until Vict

"Good, the kiss. Let's talk about it. Let's start from how you kissed me then tell me to forget it then kiss me again." Victoria spat out.As much as Mr Smith would love to talk to her about it, he felt it was only going to create more misunderstanding which he didn't want."I won't be going back to what happened that night at the cabin." He said firmly.Victoria scoffed. "Wow! What was I expe..." Mr Smith cuts her off."Listen to me first." He sighed. "I kissed you that night because I wanted to. I wasn't drunk and I was in my right mind when I did it. I wanted to forget it and regret it but I couldn't so I'm owning up to it." His words left Victoria speechless as a lump formed in her throat.She had not expected him to speak this way. She imagined them arguing back and forth but she realized she had imagined wrong when she knew of Mr Smith's personality."I didn't intend to hurt you in any way or look down on you. It wasn't in my intentions to make you look like a hoe. Not at all,

Victoria lay on her back on her bed as she looked at the ceiling with a smile on her face. Her hands were on her stomach as she recollected what happened earlier that night.The conversation with Mr Smith went more smoothly than she had expected and she was not expecting him to confess to her and tell her that he was going to court her.They ate their food in silence but every once in a while, they would sneak glances at one another and some other times, their eyes locked with one another but she would be the first to look away as her cheek would flush in embarrassment.While they left the restaurant, Mr Smith locked his hands with her but she had made an attempt to remove her hands but he held them firmly, not looking at her.She could feel her heartbeat on her head as they walked. She felt so shy and she felt her knees weaken. He had asked for her address but she wasn't ready for him to know the place so she told him not to bother and that she had called an Uber already.He told her

She sneaked glances at him all the while he spoke to the investors.After some minute, Mr Smith left with the investors and she finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Victoria stood frozen on the spot after what Mr Smith had done. When he whispered in her ear asking her to invite him to her bed, she instantly thought dirty.Then while trying to gather herself after such pant soaking words, his wet lip touched hers. She panted deeply, trying to get a hold of herself. Her feelings were all over the place again just for a simple touch. She felt her heart beat faster than normal and she sighed as she placed her palm on her chest. She suddenly felt hot as she began to fan herself with her hands. After a while, she finally went back to the office now in a better mood, making Rebecca wonder.Earlier her mood was good, then sour and now good again. She couldn't help but ask what happened to her. "Are you on your period?" Rebecca whispered to her?"What?" Victoria was taken by Rebecca's question.Rebecca shrugged. "Yes, are you on your period? I mean that could be the only reason for my mood swing. Your mood is better than it was before you went out with M
