"You're awake," I looked at Theo as I rubbed the sleep off my eyes. I stretched my arms over my head and swayed sleepily.
"I'm hungry," I muttered and rubbed my hand over my belly.
"You're here again?" I looked at Gwen and rolled my eyes.
"He rejected me last night, as you can see I'm still in my dress," I said pointing to my dress.
"I want you Theo." He took hold of my arms and slowly unwrapped them from his neck. Covering my hands with his, he brought them to his lips and kissed them softly.
"As much as I would love to, I can't," he said and I squinted my eyes.
"What do you mean you can't?" I emphasised using his accent and he smiled shaking his head. "You don't like me anymore?"
"I more than like you," he responded and then I shrugged my shoulders still in a pool of confusion.
"Then why won't you sleep with me?" I asked popping my hip to the side.
"Because you're drunk, and I won't take advanta

"I really don't think this is a good idea." "Only you would think so, Joshua," I smiled at him as I zipped up my jacket. "It's honestly not that bad if you think about it." "I have thought about it, and it's an awful idea. Did you tell him?" "I don't have to report every single thing I do to him," I said as I pulled my bag from the back seat. "It will be fine, stop worrying about it." "I'm just saying, things have been good so well between the two of you for the past two - three months, and now you're doing this?" I looked at Joshua who stared at me in disbelief, I get that he was looking out for me but this is definitely something I had to do. "I know things have been going well," I said feeling my face warm up despite the cold weather today. "And I am really happy but I just feel as if there's a barrier between us, one that I need to deal with myself," I explained and Joshua sighed kissing his teeth. "When you put it like

I sat on the couch with Miranda and Kim as we watched the twins work out. We drank our wine and whispered amongst each other who we thought was better looking, while of course Miranda was disturbed by the whole conversation."May we please switch topics, this is disgusting," Miranda shuddered and we laughed."I just have to make it a statement that Leo really does look better than Luke, no offense Kim, but-""I really have to disagree, Luke is way better!" She interjected making me laugh. "Look at the veins decorating that body, and that scar on his shoulder to prove the dangerous life he lives," she said and I swallowed my wine as I giggled behind my glass."He got that scare when they were eight after Leo pushed him down and he fell on his robot toy," Miranda scoffed."Only because Luke had punched him in the arm first," Kim said and I could basically see the hearts forming in her eyes."AFTER Leo had flicked his forehead, I was there!"

Theo and Gwen looked at me surprised while Gwen stuttered to fix her mistake."Fine," Theo grunted after we stared at each other in silence. "Let's go," he said getting his jacket."If she's going, she can't leave like that," Gwen said and I looked down at my sweats and huge shirt."I never thought I'd say this, but you're absolutely right," I said as I pulled my shirt."Don't be ridiculous, you look great for where we're going," Theo said pulling me but I pulled my hand back."I'd like to change," I said staring at him making sure he understood I wasn't going to change my mind. "I'm sure the girls probably have something that would fit me," I looked at Gwen with a smile and she clenched her jaw."Sure, I don't mind giving you an outfit," she said and I looked back at Theo smiling."See, she doesn't mind giving me an outfit," I followed behind her before I turned around and mouthed to Theo. "She's definitely your girlfriend," he rolle

We arrived at the club and just like always, Theo led me to the VIP while everyone else disappeared in between the crowds, where the real fun was.I sat next to him on the couch and slowly sipped my champagne. When I looked at him I found him already staring at me."What is it?" I asked him and he shook his head. "Really? You have nothing to say?" I asked again and he smirked leaning towards me."You left me speechless," he said and I looked down at my glass so that he wouldn't see me blushing like crazy. I downed the rest of my drink and looked at him after gathering some confidence.I climbed onto his lap and he welcomed me with no opposition, his arms held onto my waist while I sat on him. I held his face in my hands and kissed both his cheeks."What were you checking?" He asked me smiling and I smirked leaning down to his ear."An earpiece," I said and kept my arms wrapped around his neck. "But it seems you're not wearing one," I s

I was wrong. Home wasn't more exciting, in fact it was more agonising and I was extremely annoyed. I sighed again for the umpteenth time as I heard Gwen complain about me basically helping them. "What she did was completely out of line and out of plan, we had to improvise the whole situation and it was extremely annoying to do everything else out of script, and you Theo, how could you tell her who our target was an-" "He didn't tell me who your target was, I told you, it was easy to figure it out," I shrugged my shoulders and drank my water. "How?" She asked crossing her arms over her chest and I sighed getting up. "Besides your obvious attempts of getting his attention while you were dancing, alone, Nicholas Carello, son of Frank and Joanna Carello, the millionaire playboy and well let's face it, mommy's boy too," I shrugged and scratched my neck as I tried to remember the rest.

I stared at Xania as she had just admitted with her own mouth something that I had already figured out in the time we had spent together.The room had an unbearable silence as we all stared at Xania, she suddenly started chuckling and clapping her hands."You guys totally bought that didn't you?" She said and they chuckled along with her."Oh my gosh, for a moment I thought what you had just said was the truth," Kim said as she fidgeted in her chair. It was quite clear that everyone else had bought it, except for the people who really knew Xania."Same here, that look you had in your eyes was wild," Miranda said as she pointed to her own eyes. "You're really good at convincing people.""Yeah," Xania dragged her words. "It takes time," she said softly."Xania, may I please speak to you privately?" I asked as I got up from my chair, Xania followed suite nodding.

"He didn't show up," I said angrily as I stormed into my sister's apartment. I banged my clutch bag onto her island and stomped my feet over to her couch before dropping on it. "What? After he proposed the idea!" Zada asked shocked and I nodded as I breathed out heavily trying to keep calm. "He stood me up after convincing me that this time we were going to do it right, he didn't even call!" I said and I couldn't stop the lump forming. "I was so embarrassed," I couldn't control it anymore, my tears freely flowed down my face and my sister cooed as she hugged me. "You shouldn't cry," she said softly rubbing my back and I pulled away as I wiped my tears. "I can't control it, I'm ovulating," I sobbed as I felt more tears flowing down my face. "I hate that I'm crying!" "There's no break for a woman," she sighed shaking her head and I nodded. After calming down my sister and I stared at each other before she broke out into laughter and I did the sa

I woke up feeling some light patterns being drawn on my belly, I looked down to see that I still had my hand on Theo's head, while his head laid on my belly. "You're awake?" He asked and I yawned as I nodded my head. "Yeah, How'd you sleep?" I asked him and he responded by pressing a kiss on my belly. "Great since I slept with you," he answered and I rolled my eyes. He scooted up the bed and stared at me, while his fingers still drew patterns on my belly. "Thank you," he said. "What for?" I whispered back and he leaned closer, our noses were pressed against the other, and the sudden shift in the air told me that whatever was about to happen, was going to happen. "For staying with me," he said and I never thought I would be the one to make the first move. I pulled his face down and pressed my lips against his. I attacked him hungrily and I could tell he wanted this just as much as I did. His hand grabbed and squeezed my hips as he helpe
