ON THIN ICE のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

Chapter 31.DarcyKillian definitely had enough money on his card for this random shopping spree. We could even buy a car. So I wasn’t worried about the card declining.From the moment Tracy and I stepped into the department store, the employees had already started sizing us up. They noticed her Prada sweater, her Bulgari purse and her Jimmy Choos. Tracy was always dressed to the nines and I probably looked like her assistant in jeans and Chucks. Which was why an employee completely snubbed me.“Good afternoon miss, how may I help you?” She gave a slight bow to Tracy, with her back facing me.“We’re looking for…Darcy, what are we looking for?” Tracy turned to me.“Nothing in particular.” I shrugged. “We’re just looking.”“Are you sure you don’t need anything in particular?” The employee’s eyes were only on Tracy. It was getting annoying.Tracy shook her head, her thick chestnut hair swirling around her. “If we need something we’ll let you know.”“It’s getting a bit cold so I was think

Chapter 33.DarcyI really didn’t want Milena to be the one who came out of the car. But no one else in Easton drove a Corvette. She came out of the car wearing skinny jeans, knee-high boots and a white sweater. She had some red-haired girl who came out from the passenger side who dressed similarly to Milena. She was holding a white cardboard box with what I assumed to be a cake in there. As they passed Yvonne’s car, Milena shot me and only me, a dirty look that lasted for a second before heading inside. But she didn’t do anything else. She barely even looked at me. I wouldn’t have caught the nasty look she gave me if I wasn’t already looking at her. Yvonne narrowed her onyx eyes at her as she was leaving. “What was that?”I groaned and started to massage my temples. “Please don’t tell me we have to deal with her today.” I had already had enough of Ellie that morning.“No.” Sunny chirped and shook her head. She brought out the coupons from her bag and said, “These are for a private k

Chapter 35.DarcyI woke up before my alarm had the chance to ring. I was that jittery. I wasn’t exactly scared but my blood felt so hot. I had to practice.I practically jumped out of bed with only practice on my mind but I nearly tripped over something. I looked down and saw a dark mass in a sleeping bag. Right, it was Dawn. I was in Sunny’s house…without a car. I sat back down on the bottom bunk, feeling defeat slowly seeping into my chest.How was I going to go to the ice rink now?I couldn’t go back to bed at this rate. I carefully stepped over Dawn and went out into the hallway. The light in the kitchen was on. I walked in and saw Sunny’s mother clad in a fuzzy robe, leaning against the counter and drinking coffee. She looked up when she saw me and smiled softly.“You’re up early.” She set her mug on the counter. “Can’t sleep?”“Something like that.” I walked over to the coffee machine and she slid a mug over to me.“It must be hard sleeping in an unfamiliar house.” She ran her

Chapter 37.Darcy“What?” I blinked at him, trying to decipher if Killian was serious. But his face was stony and impassive. In fact, he looked almost angry.“I said you should move in with me.” He repeated. “I heard about what happened to your dorm and how the place you’re staying is pretty far.”I raised a brow. “Where did you hear that from?”“Everyone knows what happened to Adler.” He replied flatly.“No,” I shook my head. “I was talking about the other thing you said. How did you know I was staying somewhere far from school?” “I just know.” He narrowed his eyes. “Are you coming or not?”“Isn’t it a bit too early to move in?” I chortled. “It hasn’t been a year. Don’t you think we’re moving too fast.”“Just answer, Grayson.” Killian folded his arms, drawing my attention to his biceps and the rippling muscles in his forearms. His beautiful forest green eyes hardened as he waited for my answer. And that solidified my answer. There was no way I could spend that long in an enclosed sp

Chapter 39.The first person to wake up was Killian. Once he opened his eyes, he saw Darcy’s thick lashes fanning her cheeks. Her lips were slightly parted and somehow looked even more soft. Killian’s hand was draped over her shoulders, pulling her close while Darcy’s hands were pressed loosely against his chest. One of the pillows from the makeshift barrier from the previous night was on the floor while the other was underneath their bodies. So much for not doing anything stupid, Killian thought sarcastically.Their legs were tangled together and Killian couldn’t help but notice how her body was warm and soft, like she was made for cuddles.As he slowly became more conscious, he became aware of the routine yet unwelcome stiffness in his boxers. Of course, morning wood. Given the woman sleeping beside him, the timing could not have been worse.He closed his eyes for a moment, hoping the problem would disappear if he simply ignored it. Then she stirred. Darcy shifted closer in her sl
