Did I Just Get Rejected?

Danny's POV The walk back to the hotel suite was hell. My shoes were clicking on the carpet way too loudly, and every shadow in the hall looked like a threat. My skin was still prickling from being watched, like Chadwick’s eyes were laser beams burning holes in the back of my neck. I just wanted to get inside, lock the door, and scream. Or cry. Honestly, I didn't know which. The first date with Noah was honestly pure torture of my true feelings.I stopped right in front of my door. I didn't turn around. I didn't need to. I just felt him there. A heavy, suffocating weight in the air behind me."Chad," I said, my voice coming out tighter than I meant it to. "I know you are there."There was a pause. The sound of someone clearing their throat dry, sharp, intentional. Then, the creak of floorboards. Chadwick stepped out from the shadows near the elevator bank. He looked impossibly composed. God, I hated that. He looked like he had been waiting for a bus, not stalking me through the stre

Center of your lust

Danny's POV I stormed out of the bathroom, the towel hanging off my hips like a pathetic flag of defeat. I was shaking, not from the cold, but from pure, unadulterated rage. I felt so stupid. I had offered him myself on a silver platter, and he had turned me down like I was an inconvenience. This was the first time he did that or maybe the second I couldn't really remember. He had given me a silly excuse, he rejected me because he didn't want to seem toxic. Chadwick was sitting on the edge of the bed, the mattress barely dipping under his weight. He looked so calm. It was infuriating. I wanted to shake him, scream at him, make him feel half the chaotic, knotted up mess I was feeling."Toxic?" I spat the word out, crossing the room to stand right in front of him. "That’s your excuse? You are rejecting me because you suddenly realize you are toxic?"He didn't even look up at me. He was staring at the floorboards, his jaw tight. "Yeah. That’s the reason.""That’s bullshit," I shouted,

Fatal Accident

Danny's POV "Stop."The word was sharp. Cold. It sliced through the room like a razor.Chadwick didn't even look at me. His hand, the one that had been gripping the sheets, the one I had watched crumble under his own restraint reached up and clamped over my wrist. It wasn't a caress. It was an anchor. He peeled my fingers off him, one by one, like he was removing something dirty."I said stop," he repeated, his voice lower, vibrating with that terrifying, controlled anger.I sat there, straddling him, the air leaving my lungs in a rush. I was completely rejected. My hand fell to the mattress, limp. I stared at him, waiting for the crack in the mask, waiting for him to maybe pull me back, apologize or change his mind. Anything at all."Go to sleep, Danny."That's all he said. I went to my side. I curled into a ball, my knees pulled to my chest, and cried silently into the pillow until my throat burned. I forced myself to sleep, maybe I would forget about the rejection that had just h

Slipping Fingers

Chad's POV The bathroom was a sterile, tiled box, but it felt like a furnace. I locked the door, the click echoing with a finality that made my teeth ache. I needed to breathe, but my chest felt like it was encased in iron. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw him.Danny.Not the Danny who had just left, the brat in the tight tank top who smelled like provocation and rebellion. I saw the Danny from last night. The one who had straddled me, his skin fever hot, his fingers digging into the mattress like he was trying to claim my soul. I was still burning from it. In the morning I spent an hour sitting at the desk, hunched over my laptop, typing gibberish just to hide my hard cock bulging in my sweatpants from him, It was an awkward uncomfortable morning for me.I had been a goddamn statue, a monument to control, while I was dying an inch at a time from wanting to pull him down and ruin him right there on the bed.I gripped the edge of the sink, my knuckles white. I didn't want to do thi

Dead Or Alive

Chadwicks POV The doctor’s mouth was moving, forming words that felt like stones dropping into a dark well. ARDS. Cerebral edema. Fractures. I heard the sounds, but the meaning didn't touch me. None of it mattered. The only thing that registered was the rhythmic, agonizing beep-beep-beep of the monitor coming from the room behind the heavy double doors."They are in critical condition," the doctor said, his face etched with that irritating, professional sympathy. "They suffered severe pulmonary trauma from the water. Even though we flushed their lungs, the inflammation, it’s called ARDS. It’s like their own bodies are fighting to suffocate them. The fractures in the pelvis and legs, the oxygen deprivation to the brain... it’s a miracle they’re still with us. But they’re not stable. We are doing everything we can, but honestly, it’s a gamble."I stood there. My reflection in the glass of the ICU observation window looked like a stranger, hollowed out, eyes darker than I had ever seen

I Don't Want To Die

Noah's POV My eyes snapped open. The ceiling was spinning, all white and blurry, then I blinked, trying to shove the fog out of my brain, but it felt like my eyes were glued with grit. My head was pounding, a rhythmic, hateful thud against my skull. Then my vision finally sharpened into focus, my mum was there, leaning over me, her face a mess of tears."Noah? Noah! You are awake," she was saying, but it sounded like she was underwater. Everything was muffled. Like the world had cotton stuffed in it.She ran out screaming for someone. A bunch of people in white coats swarmed the room. Needles, beeping, cold hands checking my pulse. I didn't care. I just lay there, quiet. My mum was crying, thanking God, but all I could think about was the car. The water. Danny."Where.... where is Danny?" I finally croaked out. My throat felt like I had swallowed sand.My mum leaned over, trying to hold that smile together, it was the fakest, most painful thing I had ever seen. She looked at me and

My Trauma

Chadwick POV I was hitting the freeway, doing eighty, maybe ninety. The asphalt was a blur of gray. My phone buzzed. Rojit. I didn't even look, just hit the button on the dash."Boss. Something happened."His voice was thin. Too thin. My foot hit the brake. The tires screamed, chewing up the road, and I swerved onto the gravel shoulder. The car rocked to a stop. My heart wasn't beating, it was slamming into my ribs like a trapped bird."Is he dead?" I barked out. My voice sounded wrong. My own ears didn't recognize it."No... no, Boss. But his friend is. Noah. He is gone."The world tilted. It didn't spin, it just fell out from under me. Tears didn't stream down my face, they fucking exploded. I was gasping for air, clutching the steering wheel until my knuckles turned white."I just left the hospital," Rojit continued, his voice shaking. "We have a trail on Leo, we are following it up now."I killed the call. I didn't say goodbye. I didn't say anything. I just slumped forward, slamm

I will Marry Him

Danny's POV Darkness surrounded me. It was static. Like a TV screen without a signal, just fuzzy gray noise buzzing in the back of my head. Then, the beep started. Beep. Beep. Beep. It was rhythmic, steady, annoying as hell. I tried to open my eyes, but they felt like they were glued shut with sand. I couldn't move my arms, couldn't even twitch a finger. I was floating somewhere between here and wherever I had been, and honestly, the floating was easier. Then I heard him. A voice. Low, ragged, shaking. It sounded like he had been screaming for hours. "Dear father in heaven, I know I have done a lot of bad things, ended family and lives but if you save my boy. I will leave everything, I will even turn myself in to the police, I will hand them all the evidence to convict me for life imprisonment." Chad? What the hell? My brain tried to process the words, but they didn't make sense. Chadwick? Praying? Handing himself in? The man was a hurricane in a suit, I have never seen him pra

He Just Wanted Me To Love Him Back

Danny's POV "Is Noah dead?" Chad just stood there, and for a second, I thought he had stopped breathing. He didn't blink. His jaw was tight, so tight I could see the muscle in his cheek jumping. He looked at the wall, at the floor, anywhere but at me. Then he moved. He didn't give me an answer. Words wouldn't have worked anyway. He just leaned in, slow and heavy, and wrapped his arms around me. He pulled me into his chest. It was a suffocating, desperate grip. He held me so hard it hurt my ribs, the ones that were already aching. It felt like he was trying to hold me together because he knew if he let go, I would just dissolve into a pile of nothing on these hospital sheets. "Noah didn't make it." That was it. The words landed flat. I didn't cry. Not yet. I just went stiff. I felt like a statue carved out of ice. I stared at the beige, peeling wallpaper on the hospital room wall and my brain just started spinning. It was like a loop, a film strip flickering over and over in

A Murderer

Chadwick's POV It’s been a week. Seven days of this plastic chair, the smell of bleach, and the sound of Danny’s breathing. Or rather, the lack of it. He doesn’t talk. He doesn’t even look at me. He just stares at the wall like there’s some kind of secret code written in the peeling paint.I sat on the edge of the bed, holding the tray. The porridge was lukewarm and smelled like cardboard. I hated it. I hated everything about this room."Danny, you haven't even said a word in two days now," I said. My voice sounded like it had been dragged through gravel. I hadn't slept either, not really. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Noah’s mother howling on the floor.Danny didn't blink. He just sat there. Then, without looking at me, his hand reached out. It was thin. Too thin. He took the spoon from me and started shoving the food into his mouth. He wasn't enjoying it. He was eating like a machine. Like he was just fueling a body he didn’t want to own anymore.I felt a knot tighten in my ch
