All through my journey home, I had nasty and wild imaginations about Oliver; it was as though I jumped into a still pond and struggling hard not to be swept away by the storm. I couldn't seem to get him off my mind, and the more I thought about him, the more intrigued I was. I heaved a sigh of relief when I got to my apartment."Home, sweet home!" I exclaimed while I threw myself on the couch. I wondered how I was going to face him again after everything that went down between us and how I was going to spend time with him as I used to without jumping into his arms. And kissing the hell out of him. I could swear Oliver had possessed me, but when and how he did it was one thing I couldn't explain. It felt really weird to feel this way for my best friend."I should put a stop to this madness," I murmured to myself while trying to calm my nerves. I got up from the couch and made my way to the refrigerator to get myself a cool drink. Maybe, just maybe, it would calm my ass down."What a ni

I know I'm actually a beauty to behold, but honestly, I was more like a honey that every goddamn bee at the party was attracted to.I could feel their gaze on us as we entered the gala; the heavens had made no better match than us, with Oliver's mesmerizing looks complimenting mine. He looked like a god in his suit as we made our way into the gala. "Are you nervous?" he whispered into my ear"A little""Wow, that's a first." He placed his right palm on mine and gave it a gentle squeeze. My heart couldn't keep still as it continued racing, but this time, it wasn't beating because I was nervous. I kept reminding myself that he is my best friend, but my heart didn't buy it for a second.I came to the gala to be introduced to his billionaire friends, but Oliver was all I had in mind; he had swallowed me whole and left me helpless, I never imagined a day will come when I would fall for my best friend."Have you met Dean?" Oliver asked me, as he introduced one of his friends."Hi!" I forc

Oliver has a very sour relationship with his parents; little wonder why they won't when he went through so much as a kid. I'm not particularly a fan of his parents, but I just didn't want him beating himself up over the fundraiser.When we arrived at the event, the venue was a bit packed with all the crème de la crème of society mingling together and making deals. We all know that charity is just a front for their illegal deals.I tagged along under the disguise of hunting for a rich guy, but actually, I'm here to keep an eye on Oliver; I didn't want him to fall into one of his crazy episodes. I can't deal with another one of his episodes."Son! You made it," Mr. Caine called out after seeing Oliver."You didn't give me more of a choice now, did you?" Oliver whispered to his dad.Now, do you understand when I say his relationship with his parents is sour?"Honey, it's nice to see you again," his mom exclaimed, spreading her arms for a hug."I wish I could say the same," he replied."C

Throughout my day at the office, I was nothing but a shadow of myself, taunted regularly by the memories of what had transpired between Oliver and me yesterday night. It was as though Mother Nature and the Devil had made a pact to frustrate me; everywhere I turned, I could only see people making out.I entered the office thinking I was kind of free from it all, only to be handed a case of a noise complaint from some neighbors against a couple. The neighbors couldn't stand the screams and heavy groaning that came out of their apartment each time they were at it.It was my first time covering such a weird story, and I was to interview the couple. Honestly, I think the couple needs to be exiled because I spent the major part of the interview trying to separate them from each other. I wonder how they get things done around the house when all they do is tug at each other's clothes.I couldn't finish up in time to swing by the house and change before going to Ellen's engagement party; it wa

I stood at the center of the room, mouth open, as she went on about how Oliver was hers and hers alone.I knew there was something off about her from the very beginning, but to think she could pretend this much is just something else. I was too shocked at the very words coming out of her mouth, but I hid my surprise as quickly as they came. I knew then and there that it was about time I told her off."The last time I checked, Oliver wasn't yours, and neither is he mine. Besides, what makes you think he can't see past your pretense, you dumb kitty?" I fired at Arielle."Haa! Oh wow, the b*tch does bite; well, he is mine since I'm the one he is with now."She gloated while walking around the room like she had won a Nobel prize. "I have no business with your man, stupid, but when you start acting as though you love Oliver, then it becomes my problem besides we both know you only love spending his hard-earned money and you don't have any single feelings for him." Arielle was shocked at
