Lahat ng Kabanata ng Paint me a heart: Kabanata 61 - Kabanata 70

After I got in my car and warmed it up, I played my new favorite song that I dared to call ours--mine and Thomas’s. I took a deep breath in and checked my new message. “I can’t stop thinking of you, charming smile. I’m sorry I didn’t write earlier, but my father got a lot of cars to repair because of the bad weather, so I decided to help him. Even now I am still at Black’s Repairing. I can’t wait to see you again.” I read Thomas’s words on my new, shiny phone. So he was just busy? He wanted to see me, he just had no time.  I couldn’t be the one pouting because he was there for me every time I needed support and care. The thing was that I was desperate for him right now. His scent, his warmth, his embrace, was all

I picked up the rest of the dishes from the table and went to leave them in the sink to buy some time for my answer. I could see with my peripheral vision how Thomas was following me with his eyes. “Well, it is a group date. I was hoping you would come, too. Tina, maybe Linda and Sam’s friends will also come. But on the next day, I will probably leave to find Annabeth,” I defended my actions. “I would like for you and I to be exclusive. I am just saying it, so it’s well known. I don’t do those ‘open relationship’ things.” Thomas sounded offended. “If you would like me to be only yours--then you should make sure everybody knows that we are together. Especially, that I know it. We are not acting like a boyfriend and girlfriend… as stupid as it may sound.” I finally gave a voice to my wishes.

The village was small and lush streets led us to the center; the shops from Annabeth’s photo present. The sun painted the buildings in yellow-orange, and even if it wasn’t hiding behind the clouds, it was pretty cold outside. Thomas and I got out of the car and walked a few meters to reach the main street. The pressure was eating me from the inside until my eyes landed on the shop line from the photo. “Yes!” I jumped on my place, glad I had found the right village. “Now let’s go and ask someone about her.” Impatiently, I started walking towards the local grocery store in front of us. When I didn’t hear Thomas’s steps following behind me, I turned to stare at him with confusion all over my face. “Why do you think they would know about her?” he scratched his head, look

The night was warm…even hot. Thomas’s skin was like the werewolf’s in the movies - like a cozy fire. When we went to sleep, there was some addictive tension between us. As we laid on our backs, I wondered if I should make a slight move to touch his hand or maybe trace his cheekbone with my fingers. He seemed to be deep in thought, too, seeming careful to not touch me without an invitation. It was a long naive game we played until he finally gave in to his desires and leaned over me to kiss me. We were making out for half an hour and I swear my lips felt swollen before I closed my eyes, giving in to the exhaustion of the day, resting my head on Thomas’s shoulder. I loved it when it was just the two of us. I was getting too attached to this boy, who now seemed to have become a lot more than some crush. I was deeply falling for him and no stalker or other force

“Get away from me, you bitches!” Jane yelled, as we pinned her like a butterfly, holding her hands up to her head before she could respond to Barbie's slap. “Do you think you can offend my sister in front of me and get away with it?” Tina growled, and I blinked at her, almost losing my rage from surprise. “Who do you think you are? You might be rich and pretty, but I don’t give a damn.” Jane spit, her eyes narrowed from hatred. “She is the most popular girl at the school where you are about to play tomorrow night. If I was you, I would think twice before messing with her. She is the frickin’ queen.” I hissed at her. “What queen, let go of me!” She struggled in a futile try to free herself. “What is going on here? Should
