I sat in between Leo and Luke and Kim sat in front of us. I told them all about how I just finished getting my degree in Fine Arts and how I’m currently lecturing. Theo was in his office, as he always used to be, I guess some things don’t change.
“You’ve really grown haven’t you,” Leo said, patting my head and I grabbed his hand, pouting.
“I’ve always been way older than you were,” I said and Luke chuckled.
“That much is true,” he said and Leo rolled his eyes.
“Anyway, Xania, you have to meet the other girls that work with us, I’m sure you’d like them,” Leo said and I smiled nodding. Did he think that I was back to work with them? “Imagine all the jobs

“So, what did you want to talk about?” I asked Gwen as I leaned against my desk and she walked closer after she watched the door close.“Was that really Xania?” she asked as she sat down on the chair I had pulled out for Xania, I crossed my arms against my chest and waited for her to make her point. “She really doesn’t seem that great,” she said.“And your point is?” I asked calmly and she smiled, crossing her leg over the other.“What is she doing here?”“What does that have to do with you?” I asked and she sighed.“It has everything to do with me. If you’re planning on making her come back, she’ll be under

“Hi,” the voice said behind me and I groaned internally knowing who it belonged to.“Again?” I responded looking at him. “This is the third time this week,” I said and he grinned.“I missed you,” he said with a shrug.“Riggghhht,” I dragged out and the smile he gave me looked so innocent but I just knew it was far from it. “I’m waiting for Kevin,” I said and he nodded.“Just like the past two times,” he said and I rolled my eyes. “I’m just here to keep you safe.”“Sure, Theo.”I looked down at my phone and frowned seeing there was no

I watched my sister as she angrily wiped the countertop and whispered to herself, I uncrossed my legs and took a step back. “So what did Travis do this time?” I asked and she stopped wiping and looked at me exasperated with her hands pressed against her waist and her head cocked to the side. I bit my lip to stop myself from laughing and she threw the dishcloth towards me and it failed to reach me. “It’s you this time!” She shouted as she ran towards me with another dishcloth in her hands and she hit my back with it and I laughed as I ran away. “Why didn’t you tell me Theo is back!” “I’m sorry!” I laughed and she frowned, crossing her arms over her chest. “It isn’t funny Xania!” She clicked her tongue and I bit the inside of my cheek.

Why is my bed so spacious and why are my blankets extremely warm today? Did Kevin come back earlier than expected because of what happened with yesterday’s call? It doesn’t matter to me but maybe he wanted to apologize. The thought itself made me snuggle deeper into his arms and they tightened around my body. “Did you recently change your cologne?” I asked as I breathed in his scent and touched his naked chest. “And have you been working out?” I asked feeling all the curves and hard abs. “No to both questions,” he muttered back and I stopped my fingers. Kevin isn’t British? Or does his accent only come out so strongly in the mornings? “Now stop moving around so much,” he said and I gasped as I pulled away from his embrace when all I really wanted to do was get closer. “What is it?” “Why are we o

So, I drove to Theo’s house that day, and one thing led to another, us drinking and him sucking on my breasts, which felt really amazing now that I remember but I can’t help but cringe at the things I did, luckily I passed out before it got any worse. However, the fact remains that I slept with Theo and woke up with him the next day, and as much as that man pisses me off, I’m kind of happy I did.I looked at my bed and saw his clothes folded and laid on my bed patiently waiting for me to find the courage to put them into my bag and drive over to his house, but I was still waiting for Zada so that we could leave together. Kevin said that he would meet us at Theo’s house.He has been acting weird lately, or am I saying that because I’ve been hanging around with Theo more than I have been with Kevin? Either way, I’m

I stared at Theo and I was shocked to see him so suddenly, since I had arrived over thirty minutes ago I hadn’t seen him, I don’t know why I am even shocked, since this is his house.“That’s not the reaction I was expecting,” he said scratching his nape and I unconsciously walked closer to him and raised my hand touching his hair.“Why did you cut it?” I asked, touching his hair which was now shorter, mid-length and slightly cut on the sides, it was a relief that it was still curly.“You didn’t like it long,” he answered, holding my hand and kissing my wrist, I pulled my hand away and he smiled.“I never said I didn’t like it,” I said and he shook his head.

After my talk with Cassandra, I was feeling more relieved and I was happy we had reached some kind of common ground which was to actually be nice to each other. We sat outside on the patio as more of Jameson’s came, when I say more, I mean about three of his closest friends.Jameson was so attached to Azani and basically carried him all over as they played with his friends, whose names I had to really remember but I couldn’t for the life of me, it was probably this wine.“So how did you two meet?” I asked Cassandra and Marcus and she blushed pressing her head on his shoulder.“She cheated on me with him,” Theo said bluntly and took a sip of his brandy. “Not that I care, I couldn’t care less of what she did then.”

“You guys are so dead,” I pointed to the boys as I walked past them dripping wet and feeling cold. They snickered amongst themselves and I scowled at them, but I was happy to see them having so much fun.I walked over to the kitchen's entrance and before I could enter, Zada was kicking me out.“No entering the house while wet!” She said shooing me away and I pucker my lips and gave her my best puppy look and she shook her head. “Go back to where you were playing.”“But Theo threw me in the water!” I defended myself and she crossed her arms over her chest.“I saw you splashing each other with water, now go.”“Zada,” I whimpered, bat
