An Unexpected Summer Chapter Twenty - Honesty
Kyson I have tried my best not to let my mom’s call get to me. I am pissed at her for even asking me to come back to the city for the party. Why the fuck would I want to attend the part of my cousin and ex-best friend who stole the only girl I ever loved from me? Gordon and I were always close since we were kids. We were the same age and grew up together. He was more like a brother than a cousin. We had been through a lot, but when he stole my girlfriend from me, everything changed. Gordon knew I wanted to marry her, but he still went after her. They had been having an affair for a few months before I found out. I caught them together, and I have never been the same since. It was two years ago, but they have recently become engaged—one of the reasons I needed to get away because I couldn’t deal with it. So why my mother thought it was a good idea to ask me? I will never understand. “Christ, Kyson, would you be careful,” Arya says, appearing next to me, taking the knife from my hand.
An Unexpected Summer Chapter Twenty-One - Making his night better
Arya I had left Kyson on the sofa with a beer, telling him I had some laundry to put away. I didn’t. I wanted to run a bath for us, bubbles, candles and wine, without him knowing. He had no idea I had the rest of the night planned for us. I have left the bath to run so I can pick something sexy to slip into after. I went through my closet, deciding what I wanted and finally decided on a pink lace baby doll. I have panties to match too. I hide them out of the way so he doesn’t see them until I have them on.I head back to the bathroom, lighting the candles and checking on the bath. It is nearly ready. I pour two glasses of wine, setting them down. I turn the warm water off, adding in some cold water. Once prepared, I stroll through to the living room. He is lost in his own little world, sipping his beer and watching videos on his phone. He doesn’t hear me approach.“Kyson, do you care to join me?” I ask seductively.His head soon shoots up, eyes on me.“Join you for what?” he question
An Unexpected Summer Chapter Twenty-Two - I couldn't do this alone
Kyson Arya and I had just arrived at our hotel in the city. We drove here, stopping at motels on the way since it takes nearly two days to drive. We could have gotten a flight, but we chose to go by car and enjoy a road trip. Plus, it gave me time to try to get myself together. The party is tonight, and I am dreading it. We were staying here tonight and tomorrow before heading back to the cabin.“Maybe going tonight isn’t such a good idea.” I sigh as we climb out of the car.“Yes, it is a good idea! You need to do this for you, Kyson, and to show her you have moved on. I will be right there with you, by your side the entire night.” She says softly.“I guess…” she has a point, but that doesn’t make it any easier.I grab our bags from the boot, and we head inside to check-in. We had to hit the shops too because neither of us really had outfits for a party. Our plan, check-in, shower, change and then go out to get what we need. Hopefully, it won’t take too long.Arya waits by the elevat
An Unexpected Summer Chapter Twenty-Three - It belongs to me
AryaKyson and I were getting ready for the party. I finally found a dress: a sexy yet classy dark blue strapless dress and a pair of killer heels to match. I can sense Kyson is still freaking out about the entire thing, and rightly so. I just hope it doesn’t get too much for him, and he loses his shit because they aren’t worth it. If his ex even tries to come near him, she will have me to deal with.Kyson is sitting on the bed, already dressed in jeans and a shirt, which is the colour to match my dress. I am in the middle of doing my hair and make-up. I see him watching me in the mirror, smiling.“You are staring, baby boy,” I snicker, smiling back at him.“I can’t help myself. You are beautiful.” He gushes.The heat rises in my cheeks at his sweet compliment. He stands from the bed, coming over to stand behind me. He places his hands on my shoulders, and I tilt my head back, smiling brightly up at him. He leans down, kissing me softly. I happily kiss back. It is sweet and gentle.He
An Unexpected Summer Chapter Twenty-Four - The dreaded party
Kyson Arya and I were outside of the hall where the party was. We have been standing here for the last ten minutes because I have been trying to find the courage to go in. I felt like a pathetic coward. It has been years since it all happened, and I have Arya now, so it shouldn’t be getting to me as much as it is. Arya is being patient with me, something I am grateful for. “I think I am ready now,” I finally say. Arya smiles, kissing me softly, “Okay. Come on then.” She offers her hand to me, which I take. I nod, and we head inside. The place is already full. Some people I know, family members, and others I don’t know. I take a deep breath, and Arya squeezes my hand. I glance around and see Gordon sitting at one of the tables with Lena and some of their friends. A wave of anger took over me, but only for a moment; then, it subsided. “I guess that is them over there?” she whispers. “Yes. Gordon and Lena are over there,” I reply, nodding to where they are. “Ignore them. We should
An Unexpected Summer Chapter Twenty-Five - Who does she think she is?
Arya We finally find Kyson’s mom sitting at a table with some other family members. I can feel someone watching after us, and I have a feeling who it is. I glance over my shoulder, and Lena is staring. I don’t know if the issue is she regrets what she did to Kyson or if she doesn’t like the fact that he is with someone else. Does she think he was going to spend the rest of his life pining after her? I only met her for a minute, but it was enough to work out I didn’t like her. She doesn’t seem to like me either, but I don’t give a damn. Kyson keeps me close as we approach the table. “Hello, mom.” He says softly. She quickly stops the conversation she was having, turns around and smiles brightly when she sees Kyson standing there. She jumps to her feet, rushing over to hug him tightly. He let go of my hand to hug back. “I have missed you, my boy.” She coos. “I missed you too, mom.” He replies sweetly. I smile at the interaction between them. When they pull apart, she turns her at
An Unexpected Summer Chapter Twenty-Six -How dare she!
Kyson It is the last round at the bar because the party is coming to an end. I am standing at the bar, waiting to be served. I had my talk with Gordon earlier. It went okay, and we have sorted things out the best we can, but it will never be the way it used to be. The trust and bond are lost we once had.“Hi.” I hear from next to me. I knew exactly who it was. Lena.I sigh and turn to face her, “Hey.” I reply casually.“Can we talk, please?” she asks softly.“Yeah, what do you want to talk about?” I didn’t want to talk to her, but I was curious about what she had to say.“Not here, somewhere a little more private.” She pleads.“No. We talk here or not at all.” I make sure I am firm because I am not going anywhere alone with her.I refuse to upset Arya because I would if she saw me disappear somewhere with only Lena. Lena didn’t look too happy with my suggestion, but she nodded. She steps in a little closer.“I am sorry for what I did. I made a huge mistake, Kyson. I know it has been
An Unexpected Summer Chapter Twenty-Seven - The thought terrifies me
Kyson I pull up outside Arya’s cabin. It is two o’clock in the morning. Our time away hasn’t been so bad. It had been good spending time with family. Not only that but to get some closure too.Arya had fallen asleep. She drove first, and then it was my turn. She crashed out an hour ago. I won’t wake her up. I park the car, grab our things first and put them into the cabin. I head back out, going around to the passenger’s side and opening the door. I undo her seatbelt and scoop her into my arms. Arya groans but doesn’t wake up and snuggles into my chest.I use my foot to close the door, locking it with the key and carry her inside, straight to her bedroom. I lay her down on the bed, slipping her shoes off. She is already in sweatpants and a tee, so she can sleep in them. I bring the covers over her and sit next to her on the side of the bed.I smile, pushing the hair away from her face, “Sweet dreams, my love.” I whisper, kissing her forehead.I took a moment to admire her. The light
