View MoreWe walked after the ice cream date. We walked side by side on the pavement as Jules told me stories about his time in the military. I didn't know it could be fun. My memories of the camps my dad sent me to were so bad that I never thought soldiers had any fun in theirs.“It has always been my dream to be a soldier,” he continued after telling me of a time a boar attacked their camp.“I thought my dad was the only one with such a dream.” I stared at his hand. I had been staring at it since we left the ice cream Café. I really wanted to reach out to him and hold it, but I couldn't. I didn't want him to reject me.“The number of people who want to be soldiers will surprise you.”“Oh.”“The first few years there weren't easy, though. I would have given up halfway if it wasn't my dream.”“Mm.”I bit my lower lip and continued staring at his hand. I really wanted to reach out and hold him.As if the universe were mocking me, all the people we passed were couples, and they were freaking hold
“Well.” He walked over to me. “I didn't think it was that much of a deal. Besides, your dad told me he would call you and let you know. I didn't want to spoil it.”“It's okay.” I got up from the bed and stretched. “Did you prepare breakfast?”He nodded. “Yeah. I was on my way to call you out when I heard you screaming at your dad.”I yawned and started for the door. He followed close behind me as I walked towards the dining room. He had already set the food out. I sat on my chair and yawned again, rubbing my eyes with my index finger. “Are you sleepy, tired, or hungry?” Jules raised a brow. “I don't know.” I yawned again, and he chuckled. His silver-golden eyes seemed to sparkle with his mood. And with his hair down, he looked irresistible. To think this irresistible man would soon be my boyfriend. I couldn't wait for the month he asked for to end, so we could officially start dating. “Is there something on my face?” He touched his face with his palm, frowning. I grinned. “Hands
“He wanted a month?!” Queenie shrieked so loudly that I had to remove the phone from my ear. “And what happens during the month? Do you still have to sleep with him or something?”I shook my head. “I don't know.” I reached for my face mask. “He just asked me to give him time to think about our relationship.”“What did you tell him, then?”“Nothing.” I removed the mask from the nylon and put it on my face. “I just left him in the sitting room and went to my room.”“Because you're pissed?”“Who wouldn't?”I wasn't expecting him to declare his undying love to me because that would be more difficult than pulling the teeth of a damned bear. All I wanted was for him to name our relationship. I needed to know where I stood in his life, if I was just a sex partner or something more. Was that too much to ask for? Queenie was silent for a moment. I even thought she had disconnected until she spoke up. “So, are you going to give him the month he asked for?”“What else would I do if not for tha
LOGAN“You did what?!!” Queenie shrieked so loudly that I had to cover her mouth. “Hush!” I looked around the cafeteria. “You don't need to scream.”She swatted my hand away from her mouth and narrowed her eyes. “Did you wash that hand?”“It's not dirty.” I stole a fry from her plate and popped it into my mouth. She glared. "Why the hell do you like stealing my fries?" I grinned. "Because I can?" She huffed before her face brightened. “So, you slept with your bodyguard?” She asked, with eyes sparkling. “Mm.”“Thrice!” “Girl, hush!” “I can't.” She leaned closer to the desk. “You really had sex with him? Like mind-blowing, over-the-top sex that left you panting for more?”My cheeks warmed. Ignoring her, I reached for my coffee and downed the entire contents. The fucker scalded my throat, but I didn't care. “How was he?” she asked so suddenly that I would have spat coffee on her face if there were any remaining in my mouth. I groaned. “Can you drop it already, girl? I don't thin
