ALEXANDER. Josie is standing by the door, and she stammers when she speaks. "I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean to barge in. I didn’t know you had someone over. I’m so sorry." She apologizes, and I shake my head, signaling for her to leave. Thankfully, she catches onto the sign without me having to add words, and she nods. "I’ll come back later." She turns and bows to my Mom before she disappears through the door, and my chest drops shakily as I turn back to Mom. "Another one of your girls?" She arches a brow, and I scoff. "She’s my friend. From Florida, and you’d have known her if you paid any attention to me." "I’m not here to listen to your whines about me abandoning you, Alexander." She snaps. "I’m here to remind you the only reason I’m letting you stay here and do things your way is because I thought you’d be more responsible. Change and turn better, but if you find it hard to even do that, then I’d be left with no choice but to—" "But to what?" I cut in her words. "What will you do
DEX. "Do you want to come here?" Veronica asks after a long while, and I turn my head to her, my eyes moving down her body before I shake my head. "No. I’m good on the couch. The rain will be over soon, so…" I trail off, and I watch as she starts to get out of bed. It doesn’t take long for her to stand before me. "Are you sure you’re okay, Dex? You’ve been acting weird since I kissed you." She says, and I lick my lips as I close my hand over my pants and shift in my seat, a movement I hope she doesn’t notice. "I’m good," I reply curtly, and she frowns. "Did I do something wrong? You didn’t like the kiss? You kissed me back, though? I’m sorry if I got things con—" "No." I cut in before she can get out any more words. I let out a shaky breath and shut my eyes. When I open them, Veronica’s blue eyes are staring at me, waiting for me to continue, and I swallow, pushing aside my fluster. "I liked the kiss. I just… I think I liked it a bit too much." EARLIER. My body goes rigid as Vero
DEX. I’ve never felt so good in my entire life. So amazing, it’s almost like I’m no longer on earth. That’s how good Veronica is currently making me feel. After whispering how good she’d make me feel, her voice low, seductive, and her words promising; her determined eyes rest on mine as she drops to her knees before me, and I gasp when she squeezes my cock through my pants. "Veronica," I moan, my heart pounding in my chest, and she smiles as she hooks her fingers around the waistband of my pants. She stills for a second and asks. "Have you ever done this?" When I shake my head, her eyes widen, astonishment clear in her sparking blue. "You’ve never had your cock sucked?" "I’ve never done anything with any girl other than kissing," I reveal to her, and her mouth lifts. "So you’re sort of a virgin?" Veronica laughs when I only blink at her. "That’s kind of sexy." "I uh… are you sure you want to do that." I ask as she pulls my pants down my legs, leaving it below my thighs. She lifts
ARABELLA. "You’ve been frowning ever since I received that call." Alex chuckles as he comes out of the bathroom with his wet clothes in hand, and I shift closer to the edge of the bed. "Yeah, I just don’t feel too good about it. You’re sure you have to go?" I ask, and he stays silent as he drops his clothes on my desk. He strides to me and crouches before me, grabbing both my hands, and I lower my gaze. "It’s just my brother, babe. I’m sure everything is good." "And if it isn’t?" I lift a brow, and he smiles, pushing forward to press his lips to the corner of my mouth. I shut my eyes to feel the contact before Alex draws back and raises to his feet. "I’ll be fine. You should take a break from worrying so much about me. I’m sure it’s starting to get exhausting." I shake my head as I stare up at him. "No. I quite love my job." Alex laughs before he drops my hands and turns back to grab his clothes. When he meets my eyes again, he says, "I’ll be back before you know it." I nod and s
ARABELLA.A frown makes its way to my face as I spread my hands across the bed. The print of Alexander’s body is still slightly visible, so he must have left not long ago. Why did he leave without waking me, though? And so early?I rub my eyes as I pull the covers to my chest, sitting against the headboard as my eyes move across the room. Alex’s clothes are scattered across the floor. Then I hear the creak of the bathroom door. I turn my head, and Alex walks out of the room. My chest drops in relief, and I smile as I watch him shut the door, but I furrow my brows when he flinches a bit seeing me. He’s clad in only his boxers, and his hair is disheveled over his head. If he didn’t seem suspicious with those sneaky movements and that flinch, I probably would be thinking about how hot he looks rather than what he’s up to."Oh, you’re up." He speaks after he locks the door completely, and I notice the phone in his hand when he steps further into the light. "Yeah. What were you doing in the
VERONICA.I grind my teeth as I stare at the picture, anger burning through my veins."Are you okay?" Dex’s voice takes my attention back to him, and I turn. Worry clouds his features, and a frown accompanies his soft gaze. "Veronica?""Yeah. It’s just–" I pause and stare back at the phone I have in hand, my eyes going over the picture again. What the hell is she doing with him? "It’s my sister." I finally confess as I lift my head back to Dex, and he stands from the stool. "Is she okay? Something happened?"I turn my phone to him, and he just stares at it with a puzzled expression. "I don’t understand?"I bring down the phone. "It’s Sam’s room. She’s with him.""You can tell that when you barely see the room?" Dex asks, and I nod. "I’ve been in there multiple times."Something crosses his face, but it fades as soon as it comes, and he shakes his head. "Right. Um, so your sister. You think he took her forcefully?""Will you take this kind of picture and upload it to your social if you’
ARABELLA. My heart drops, and I slowly remove my hand from his. "What?" There’s a sad look on his face as he speaks. "I’m sorry. I should have told you sooner, but I was hoping it wouldn’t have to come to that." "Why? Why do you have to leave?" His mother and brother were just here, and it didn’t go well, so why’d he want to go back home? Alex licks his lips, the wheels in his eyes turning as he explains. "It’s um… it’s my mom." My interest piques at the mention of her, and I lift a brow as I listen to the rest of his words. "She’s sick. And I want to be there for her and Kaleb." "Why didn’t she tell you when she was here?" I ask, and he lets out a sad chuckle as he removes his gaze. "It’s my mother. I haven’t known what’s going on in her life for the past four years. I wouldn’t know about this either if Kaleb didn’t tell me." My heart breaks for him at the pain that’s unmistakable in his voice, and knowing how much he must be hurting, I push my need aside and shift closer to him
ARABELLA. A soft sigh leaves my lips, my eyes fluttering when I feel a hand on my face. I open them, the morning light hitting my eyes at first, and I resist the urge to groan as I squint, then the blurry image before me slowly becomes clear. Alexander is staring at me. With a smile on his face and my heart starts beating faster in my chest. "Good morning." He chuckles as he looks down at me. My head is out of his chest, and there’s a small space between us. I’m almost rolled to the end of my side, but he has one hand secured around my waist, holding me still while the other is stroking my cheek. I shift forward. "How long have you been awake?" "Long enough to watch you grumble in your sleep." He responds, and heat creeps up my neck as I shyly giggle. "Sorry." "It’s alright. It’s adorable, and that’s not the first time. What or who were you dreaming about?" He asks as he slowly drops his hand to my chin, tipping the skin so he’s staring directly into my eyes, giving me no chance t
