It's Fine, I am Fine! Chapter 15
Lena I parked my car at a different gas station, to avoid any surprises. I angrily searched my car for my dress, shoved it into my backpack, and went to the restroom. I was so furious with that lunatic that kept following me that I would even dare drink alcohol tonight. I had only tasted the stuff once, hated it but tonight I wanted to stop thinking and a few drinks would be the answer. Like parents like daughter. I washed my face and applied more make-up than I ever wore before. I even put some eyeliner on my eyes. I haven't used my make-up kit for ages it seemed, I hope make-up doesn't expire. I wore my black wrap dress, that had knee length. Not very sexy, but I allowed its cleavage a lot more open than I usually did. I let my hair loose on my shoulders and brushed them, so they looked stylish or something. Then I applied the only lipstick I owned, a dark red shade one, which thankfully covered the cut on my lip, making it almost invisible, it was like it was never there.

Lena I buzzed M. Walker, and I felt my finger hurt. Like the button was my enemy. After a few seconds, the door opened for me. I took the elevator to the seventh floor and checked myself in the mirror. I was upset but I wanted to look good as well. My heart was pounding, and I felt both angry and stupid at the same time. Why did I need to fight with him? Over what? Was it a lame excuse to see him tonight? I did care to find out what was going on in my head, but it was too late to back out. I wanted to be done with this awful feeling. He was standing on his threshold when I walked to his apartment door. He wore black jeans and a black short-sleeve button-up shirt. Damn, he looked gorgeous. His short hair was messy and had his toned arms crossed in front of his chest. Jake sat next to his feet, wagging his tail excitedly, that made me soften a little bit. He looked at me like I was someone important, unlike his father who had a serious safe on and definitely a defensive stance

Lena My phone rang early in the morning, waking me up abruptly. I groaned and reached for it from my bag on the front seat. I yawned and said "Hello" only to be greeted by an anxious Aaron informing me that my shift was cancelled for today because of something that I couldn't be bothered to hear nor to ask for an explanation, it was fine. So, today I decided to go to all the places I was afraid to go. I cleaned myself at the gas station's bathroom, no creepy guy around today. Then I ate some lunch at that Korean convenient store I like, no creepy guy there either. And after I overcame all my fears I went to the park. I sat on the same bench, even though an elderly couple was occupying it, I sat at the edge. The book was so interesting that I couldn't put it down. I was almost out of coffee, and I didn't have the will to stop reading even for five minutes. My phone rang and I blindly searched my bag, while my eyes were fixated on the pages in front of me. I accepted the cal

Lena Lisa walked in front of me the minute Max left the bar. She put her arms on the counter, without pushing her breasts out this time. "Do you want anything else to drink, honey?" she seemed so bored. "No, I'm fine" I answered while taking my book out of my backpack. "Come on, Max said whatever you drink is on him" Oh, that was why he whispered to her. "I see. But no thanks I'm good" "Come one, maybe champagne?" she insisted. "No, I said I'm good" "Don't be silly, he's paying... take two champagnes!" she laughed. "I don't drink" "Then buy them and give them to me!" she laughed again. Did she think she was funny? "If I want to buy something I'll do it with my own money, so should you" I faked a smile and opened my book in front of me. "Oh, poor Lena, you got a crush on him, don't you? Poor, poor you. Let me tell you something about Max Walker... I know him better than you do. He’ll have fun with you and then off you go. Don't you see that?" I stayed silent. I knew she

Max Can't deal with this girl! One moment she wanted to be with me and the next she pushed me away. So many mixed signals. I was never the begging type, and I that would never change. You should give her another chance... Fuck you! Like she knew everything that was going on with my life. She cared about Sally more than I did. I run across town to my parents' house to pick up crazy Sally, like I had nothing better to do. She had the nerve to stop by their house, and not only that but introduced herself as my fucking fiancé for crying out loud! My mother, Karen, already knew her from some event and she adored her parents, so she invited her inside with no questions asked. Karen didn't care if Sally was drunk and uninvited, she only cared that her parents were loaded, so mommy drooled all over her. My Karen was so delighted with Sally; she even gave me the thumbs up while I dragged her out of their house... well-done son. Fuck you! I struggled to put her in my car, as

Lena As much as I wanted him here, I needed him to leave. I was a mess, and I couldn't handle his kindness. How could I? I have never had much in my life. People mostly demanded something from me after helping me in any way, but what would he get out of this, sex? I leaned my head to the back of the seat, and gazed at him while he was driving. He looked tired but yet so handsome, he could easily take my breath away anytime he wished. If he desperately wanted to take me home, I'd let him. So, I allowed myself to stare at him until we arrived at my home, I wouldn't have this opportunity after that. I’ll take you home and it's the last thing I’ll do... That couldn’t be further from the truth, and he had no idea how right he was. It would be the last thing he would do for me. I took a deep breath and felt good returning home, or better, to the crime scene. I decided, almost in an instant it seemed, to leave town tomorrow. I would let him drive me there, witness his disappointed

Lena When I opened my eyes, Max wasn't in the living room, and neither was Jake. I guessed, maybe he took him for a walk. It was dark outside though and the rain was still pouring down. My shoes were off and I had the same blanket over me. He did take care of me better than my parents ever did. I lazily stayed laying on the couch, I didn’t want to move, it was too cozy to resist. After a few minutes, the door opened and a wet Jake ran towards me with his tail wagging excitedly. I kissed his brown muzzle and petted his coat. Max came walked towards us with an almost wet paper bag on hand and a soaked hoodie. "I brought dinner. I’m not the cooking dinner type of guy" he announced with a serious face. All I wanted to say was that he was the best type of guy, but I didn't have the courage. "Thank you, for everything" I softly said, but he didn't pay me any attention. I deserved that. We spread the food on the table and we ate together in awkward silence, at least for me, be

Lena Jake sat on the floor right next to Max, as a loyal dog, he was into a deep sleep and was dreaming because he made puppy-like sounds and his body was slightly shaking. I loved this feeling, this warmth, this peace. I approached Max and laid right next to him on the wide couch. He shifted immediately to accommodate me and put me into his strong arms. Maybe he wasn't asleep after all. I swallowed hard and took a deep breath while smelling him in. He shifted his weight a little bit to squeeze me between the sofa's back and his body. Even like that he was concerned about my injured arm and made sure he didn't hurt it. My lips almost touched his throat and I took another deep breath. I felt his hands searching for bare skin under my shirt. His eyes were still closed and his breath was steady and hot. I closed my eyes and tried to sleep. The sound of the rain made our situation even cozier. Under these conditions, I highly doubt if I could fall asleep, but after a while that fe
