Hey, everyone, Sorry for not updating and even now they won't be frequent. I am currently out with Covid and it is kicking my ass, so it is taken me two days or more to write one chapter 😒 but once I feel better I can get back into it. Emma
Arya It was getting late, but I was still awake, still writing to stop me from thinking. I haven’t heard from Kyson since we argued, and I don’t expect to hear from him anytime soon. If he wants to be with other women, he can go right ahead, but if he thinks he can always come back to me, then he can go to hell.I close my laptop, setting it aside to take a five-minute break. I switch my music off and enjoy the sound of silence. I close my eyes, inhaling and then exhaling.“Arya?” I squeal and jump at the sound of my name. I open my eyes and see Kyson standing there, looking nervous.“What do you want? Callie, through you, out?” I snap. I had a feeling that is where he went too when he left here, “Nothing happened.” He sighs.“Sure, if you say so,” I roll my eyes, not believing him, “I promise, Arya, nothing happened.” He insisted.“Leave me alone, Kyson. I don’t want to see you. And if you think I am going to fuck you after I know you have been somewhere else, then think again becau
Kyson I had been up since seven this morning because I wanted to go out and pick breakfast up for us. I had gotten us some bagels, cream cheese, fresh fruit, yoghurt and of course, coffee too.I left a note on the pillow next to Arya to let her know I had to nip out in case she thought I had changed my mind and went again. I am so thankful she gave me another chance, even if I didn’t deserve it, but it means I need to work damn hard if I don’t want to lose her, and I plan on exactly doing that.I had set a blanket out right by the lake with our breakfast laid out on it. I headed into her cabin and to the bedroom, but she wasn’t in bed.“Arya, babe, where are you?” I call out. There was no reply. I made my way through the cabin, hearing her in the bathroom, the shower on. I knock loudly on the door, “Can I come in?”“Yeah, come in,” she answers. I let myself in, and she was in the shower.I sit on the toilet seat, “Are you going to be long? I have a surprise for you?” I didn’t want to
Arya It has been over a week since everything went down between Kyson and me. I am proud of myself because I have kept my hormones in check around him, which hasn’t been easy. It may not sound like a long time, but with the sexual tension and chemistry between on, it has felt like months. Thankfully he has been patient with me, understanding I need time before we become intimate again. He has been a sweetheart. He has been taking care of me, spoiling me and making sure I was taking time to write.He had nipped out to stock up on shopping for us. I have been writing, but I need a break. I put my laptop to sleep, heading inside and placed it on the bed, stripping down and pulling on my bikini. I am eager to get into the water, as always. I would have the entire lake to myself, which made it better. I grabbed a towel and a bottle of water, strolled down to the lake, walking into it until it was deep enough to dive in.I love being underwater. There is something rather relaxing about it.
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.
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
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
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
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
