CHAPTER 31 ForelsketForelsket- the euphoria you experience when you are first falling in loveOrigin: Norwegian31Both of us headed up to my room and as soon as we got inside, he walked to the bed and placed the box on top. I locked the door and just watched Nick. It felt like a déjà vu, like it was the first night we spent together."Aren't you gonna join me here?" He asked.I smiled and started walking closer to him. I sat down on the bed right across him and he gave me a slice. We just ate peacefully and he opened a can of soda for me too."I think you still need curtains." I say."No curtains."I smiled. "Why? Do you have some fear of curtains?"He shakes his head. "Nope. I just don't like curtains.""Why?" I asked again before taking a drink from my cola."Because it'll just add dust to my room and I'm too lazy to wash it time to time."I nod. "Reasonable."He pulled out a ply of tissue and wiped my cheek, "You're such a messy eater."I giggled."I'm just really hungry." I sai

CHAPTER 32 CaimCaim- an invisible circle of protection that reminds you that you are safe and loved even in the darkest times; sanctuaryOrigin: Scottish32I pulled myself up from the bed."Where are you going?" Nick asked."Shower. I need to take a shower before I sleep." I said while grabbing my towel.He glances at his watch. "It's already eleven in the evening."I nodded. "Yeah, what's wrong with that?"He stares at me as I grab my mini basket that contains all the things I need for my shower --- shampoo, body wash, shaver, conditioner and some other extra stuff. I started slipping off from my clothes in front of him leaving me with nothing but my underwear on then I quickly wrapped my towel around my body. We just looked at each other for a few seconds and I was waiting for him to get up from the bed and tell me that he's going to join me in the shower.Oh please join me in the shower, Nick."I'll just wait for you here, then." he says.I sigh inwardly."Alright. Don't touch a

CHAPTER 33 AspectabundAspectabund- being able to let expressive emotion show easily through one a face and eyesOrigin: English333:30 AMNick and I were still playing by the shore of this beach where he took me. There weren't much people around since it was already getting late. He was giving me a piggyback ride while he kept spinning himself around and around until both of us fell on the sand. My butt was hurting but we were both laughing.We weren't drunk and we didn't drink. I think this was the side effects of showering together and eating pizza and ice cream. I think this was definitely caused by the ice cream. It was strawberry, he said it was his favorite. Unusual favorite flavor of an ice cream for a frat guy like him.I wonder if Catherine likes strawberry flavored ice cream too.We haven't had sleep yet and I think when we're together we don't need sleep at all because even though I am with him, all these time that I'm spending with Nick is still not enough for me. It fe

Love Ain't Always Pretty/Ellyreiv

CHAPTER 34 La Douleur Exquise La Douleur Exquise- the heart-wrenching pain of wanting the affection of someone unattainableOrigin: French34It was unexpected to see Channing around here and it was very coincidental that I had to be with Nick. It's not that I don't want them to meet, but I just dont want Nick to feel a little bit down when he sees Channing. I know Nick hates or has a problem about rich people and Channing is rich and can be very boastful sometimes."Does that have cheese?" I asked Nick. Trying to make a conversation with him."Yeah. You want it?" Nick asked.Channing softly laughs. "Savannah doesn't like cheese, man."I gaze at Channing. He remembers.I moved my head back to Nick who looked a little bit pissed. We just continued eating again while Channing and I just kept talking about how his days went well in Ohio State University then he would ask me about how mine went in WSU too while Nick was just eating quietly. We didn't mean to make him feel out of place

CHAPTER 35 ScintillaScintilla- a tiny, brilliant flash or spark; a small thing; a barely-visible traceOrigin: Latin35"Can I come in?" Nick asked.I widened the door for him. "Sure."I think he's not drunk. He doesn't smell liquor at all. He walks inside my room and I headed to the bed while he stands right across me. He's looking at me while we were alone in this dim room."What are you doing here?" I asked.I gazed at my watch, as if I dont know the time. "It's already one in the morning.""The frat house was too loud, I couldn't sleep."My eyebrows creasing. "You mean to say you want to sleep here?""Can I?" he asked.I stared at him. "Sure."I slightly moved and crawled to my bed while he walks closer to me. He sits on top of the mattress and I settled myself on down. He kicks off his shoes and lays down right next to me while he covers the blanket over us. Both of us were still staring at the ceiling and neither of us wanted to talk even though it was evident that we wanted t

CHAPTER 36 Videnda

CHAPTER 36 VidendaVidenda- the things that should be seen or visited, especially if because they mark the character of a person or place; "What is to be observed"Origin: Latin36"We're here!" Channing calls out to us.Nick and I started walking closer to Channing and we were finally here. I could already hear the sound of the waterfall and when I stood right next to Channing, the view was always breathtaking. I missed this place too much and I'm just glad we're back here. This time, Nick is with us.Channing starts walking on the downhill pathway, closer to the waterfall while Nick helped me walking down. We finally reached where Channing was and it was evident on his face that he was excited as I am. All of us put our bags down on the ground and Channing isn't wasting any time because he's already taking his shirt off. His body didn't change at all. He looked at me."Come on guys. Let's waste no time and have fun." Channing says to me.Channing walks up to a higher spot, the same

CHAPTER 37 VerbotenVerboten- forbidden; prohibited by dictateOrigin: German37NICK'S POVEIGHT YEARS AGO"How do I look?" Catherine asks me.She shows off to me her lovely white dress that I bought from a flea market in town and she seems to love it. It was just really cheap and I thought she wasn't gonna like it because it was a cheapass dress but she loved it. She really loved it. She still makes it look so pretty damn good on her and I was glad it fits her. Catherine is always so beautiful to me no matter what she's gonna wear or how tired she looks like or how sleepy and how make-up free her face is. Catherine will always be beautiful to me."Say something." She pleads.My lips twitch."How do I look Nick?" She asks again while she reaches for my hand.I smiled at her. "You look very very beautiful, love."She smiles sheepishly. "Are you sure? It's a perfect fit though. I really love it."I cupped her right cheek and kissed her forehead. "Yes I am. You're the loveliest."I am

CHAPTER 38 Sinbi (신비)Sinbi (신비)Translation: MysteryOrigin: Korean38SAVANNAH'S POVI threw myself to bed and I'm already so exhausted even though it's still Wednesday. I have this seriously difficult project to pass on Friday which I'm still not done with, the same day as my exam for English I. I haven't memorized the English writers needed to be memorized. The past three days, I haven't seen Nick again. He's always gone so long and just pops out of nowhere all of a sudden. I know I shouldn't be allowed to look for him because we have no label but he makes me worried about him sometimes.The door swings open, "Ugh! Good thing I saw you."It was Tracy.She walks inside and slammed the door behind her. She sits on my bed and I smiled at her. She looks as tired as I am. "I need a hug." She sighs.She opens her arms wide to me with a rueful smile. I pulled myself up and just hugged her. I rubbed her back. "What's wrong?" I asked."Clyde and I fought. Nick is not picking up his phone w

CHAPTER 39 Abulia

Love Ain't Always Pretty/Ellyreiv

CHAPTER 39 AbuliaAbulia- abnormal lack of ability to act or to make decisionsOrigin: English39I watch Tracy and Clyde talk to each other on another table, right across us while I was sitting down on the same spot where I was right next to Nick. I just kept sipping my juice, little by little so I would avoid talking to Nick. I don't want to talk to him right now. I'm not allowed to get hurt but now that I found out that he's still visiting and seeing Catherine, I feel so downgraded. I can't blame him for using me when he's here. The real thing that I'm bugged about is his real current relationship with Catherine. I wonder what they are now."How you've been?" He finally speaks after eating his steak. He grabs a tissue and wiped his outer lips."Good. Busy." I said without looking at him as I put my lips back on my straw.We were quiet again. I see Tracy and Clyde walking back to our table with smile on their faces, I think they've patched up everything now. I smiled at them."You

CHAPTER 40 Furyo

Love Ain't Always Pretty/Ellyreiv

CHAPTER 40 Furyo (不慮)Furyo (不慮)Translation: AccidentalOrigin: Japanese40I got myself busy and studied my lessons during the rest days of the week. I tried to avoid seeing him, I would eat dinner earlier than Tracy. I would do it on purpose or I would go out alone just to avoid seeing Nick. I keep on reminding myself that it's for the best. I know it's for the best. It might actually help me just a little bit to get over this feeling I have for him and I wish it would at least help.Now based on the way things that happened last Wednesday, I doubt that he actually cares much for me. He didn't even try to call or text me after that night. He completely treated me like shit.If I did something wrong that he didn't like, I expected that he would eventually explain it to me what it was or at least tell me what the hell upset him so much that night, but no he didn't bother telling me about it and I really hate it. The last thing I got from him was the slamming of his bedroom door after
