Tiffany I go out of breath, but still, he continues to kiss me with small breaks. Then finally, he pulls me away, leaving me asking for more but I don't say it. I feel my cheeks burning and I immediately lower my gaze due to the exploding shyness. However, I manage to peek up at him. He's smiling. "Was I bad?" The stupidest question I could ever ask but I was so nervous about reacting. I hear him cracking up. "No. You were raw", he says. That sounded a bit offensive as I glare up at him. "Of course, you might have kissed plenty of experienced women", I shrug."Wow!" He exclaims, staring at me in awe as he holds my shoulders. "You look terrific when you're angry too but apart from that do I really look like a player? I mean it's definitely a negative side of being good looking"I wish I was this confident to compliment myself.This guy is something. Are we really getting into silly tiffs for the first time right after our first kiss? "I said you were raw in a different you.

TheaSunday morning. Even though I had no plans to sleep this long, I couldn't believe it was ten in the morning. I jump off the bed and look around. John is working on his laptop, sitting on the couch. "When did you wake up? And why didn't you wake me up?" I scoff, stretching my arms. He looks up at me, tilting his glasses upwards, then again looks down at the screen."I thought you didn't get enough sleep last night since you came home late, so you should get some extra sleep", he says in a heavily cold tone, leaving me speechless. How did he get to know?I can't utter a single word and just stare at him. "John, I—""Don't say that you didn't, Thea. I can easily feel you're not beside me. I woke up and checked the entire house before a maid eventually said she saw you going out using the backdoor", he says, irking the hell out of me. I'm pretty sure I didn't see any maid around.Even if any of them saw me, how dare she? I grit my teeth while clasping the sheets tightly. "Which

Tiffany"You forgot the teddy bear in my car last night", Sebastian replies after two long hours I had been peeking at my phone every two minutes. That's so crazy of me. I never felt this way before. We have been chatting since this morning. He was really slow in replying and I can understand that since he said he was texting me while working. It can't be sweeter than this. I smile at the reply. "I deliberately didn't take it. Thea would unnecessarily question me", I send. "You can't even own a teddy? That's weird!" He replies soon. "And well, sorry for replying so late""It's okay! You're not a stay-at-home person like me😄", I reply with some laughing emoticons. He doesn't reply sooner. I see him typing twice but the typing sign vanishes a couple of times as if he's trying to say something but he's unable to do so. I curiously wait. "What are you doing this evening?😐" He replies. "I know it's weird but I wanna meet you"I blush harder, lying on my bed and looking at the ceili

Tiffany I give up and cover my face, groaning. "You're okay?" He asks.I can feel the small amount of alcohol working on me. But I'm still in a good mood. I sit straight and rub my face."Yeah. Yeah. I'm sorry. I think—""Well, you can talk about good things, no?" He smiles. "There was nothing good in my life", I grunt. "Brought up in slums. Hardly getting food to eat. Working in a coal mine since I was a child. Nothing was good, actually. Mom left too. It's all about Ryan and Kevin, those only people who care about me", I scoff. "I care about you too", he husks. I look up at him. Our eyes meet. Intensely. He drags himself closer to me, our faces just an inch apart. I feel his arm snaking around my waist. He pulls me closer, pressing me against himself. Leaning closer to me, he softly places his lips on mine. My head goes blank and I respond with the same intensity. I hold his neck, and with my other hand, I clutch onto his shirt, going breathless with his tongue pushing inside m

Ivanna I finally catch my breath after coming out of the courtroom. It was a two-hour-long debate that occurred inside. I was kind of prepared for the experience since it was not my first time in a courtroom. I had been attending all the trials with Emily for her case. To be honest, that's more crucial than this one. Watching Emily explaining all the horrific events she went through for a whole year and repeating things just for the sake of procedure freaked me out every time.Today, Christian narrated the whole thing that happened that night and everything that happened before that event. There were more details that he didn't tell me. And I was utterly shocked by all those tiny events that happened and I remained ignorant about them all the time. At that moment I was already dealing with my own issues when I started getting insecure about Thea. I never thought in my dreams that she was deliberately trying to get close to Christian ever since. She even got her kids admitted to the
