"Andre," Mr. Davison called as he approached me.
I looked up at him. A frown was set in his features as he walked towards me with heavy steps. "Yes, sir?"
"You've made many mistakes in this file," he said, his tone filled with disapproval as he handed a black file to me. "Most of them have to do with spellings."
I took the file and began to skim through it. "I wouldn't make such a petty mistake, sir," I said in confusion, not seeing the mistakes that he was talking about.
He sighed and took me to a particular page. "This page and the others after it are horribly done. Firstly, this is not the case that I told you to research on. Secondly, you got the names and spellings wrong."
My eyes widened in surprise as I noticed what he was talking about and I internally scolded myself for letting my mind wander off during work. "I'm sorry. I'll start working on it right away."
"Please do so. Your work is always good. What ha

We stared at each other for a while and I pulled my hand away from him. Was he serious? Did I hear him right? The room was quiet as we kept eye contact. I knew that Mrs. Young was already in her room and I was glad that it was far from ours. It almost seemed like we were alone in the house and I smiled at this wonderful turn of events. I didn't expect him to admit it so straightforwardly. He looked nervous but didn't look away. I had so many thoughts in my head but I focused on the beautiful young man in front of me. "I like you too, Henry," I said honestly and watched as his eyes lit up with relief. He stood up from the bed and asked, "Can we start over?" "You're not going to back down again, are you?" "I don't know. I'm filled with so many confusing feelings right now." "Then what do you want from me?" He stared at me for a while. "I want to be yours, Andre." I leaned in and softly pressed my lips against his. Henry held my arms as he returned the kiss and we departed, only

I pressed the start button and watched as my clothes rolled around in the washing machine. It was a warm Saturday morning and despite my mom's protests, I didn't want her help. She always insisted on doing my laundry for me but I told her that I wanted to start doing it myself. Maybe she didn't trust me and thought that I'd make a mistake. That woman treated me like a child. To be honest, I didn't mind her doing it but ever since Andre and I officially got together, we spent so much time with each other that I felt like his scent got on me. Call me paranoid but I didn't want her to notice it. I liked being with Andre and for the first time in my life, I felt close with someone outside my friend group. Louis said that whether we lasted or not was up to us and I wanted us to last. Even if it was just for the period of him being here. My parents would obviously be against our relationship that's why I was doing all that I could to av

"So I followed her and asked if she'd like to go out sometime and she said yes!" Ryan explained excitedly. "You really hit the jackpot on this one, dude. I'm impressed," Louis commented with a chuckle and Ryan nodded enthusiastically. "I know, right? I was worried that she might reject me." I laughed. "Aren't there more important things to worry about though?" "You don't understand love, Henry. I've been eyeing her since last month," he argued. "And rejection, especially from someone you like, is damn scary." "Okay, okay. Go crazy, bro." I looked at Louis. "How are things with Wendy?" He shrugged nonchalantly. "I'm over it." My eyes went wide. "Why? You were doing well and now you're done?" "Liking someone fades sometimes." "Breaking hearts left and right like the dick that you are," Ryan complained with a light shake of his head. "I wonder why the girls always go for you." "It's because I

I curled my toes into the warm sand as I looked around discreetly. Andre and I were waiting for his friends to arrive and I was a little relieved since my heart was anything but ready. I briefly glanced at Andre. He's eyes were on his phone as he probably texted them. Wasn't he nervous? He was going to introduce me to a friend that didn't even know his sexuality yet he looked so calm. He looked at me and I flinched before dropping my gaze. "You're nervous?" He asked with a teasing smile. "I'm not." "Then should we look for them?" I shook my head. "I prefer to keep waiting." "Really? What if they take too long?" "It's not like they'll get lost." He offered me his hand and I looked up at him. "What do you want?" "I want you to hold my hand." I blushed. "That's okay." "Come on," he said as he wiggled his fingers and I hesitantly accepted it. "That wasn't so bad, was it?" "No."

I stared at the two pairs of underwear in front of me. One was a soft aquamarine with thin straps connecting the sides and the other was a black one with a bow on the front and a completely lacey back. Currently, I was torn between these two excellent choices. I was home alone today and out of boredom, I began to organize my wardrobe. I wanted my top five favourite panties to be in my underwear drawer so, that I could find them without having to hunt for them. That led me to the current situation. I didn't know which one would be my final pair. I hummed in thought. Which one would Andre like more? A small smile spread on my lips and I grabbed my phone before texting, "Hi, are you busy?" A reply came after two minutes. "Not really," it read. "Missed me already?" I rolled my eyes and put my phone down. Grabbing the aquamarine pair, I undressed and put them on. I stood in front of the mirror and took a picture. I then changed

I hummed as I leaned back into my chair. I was finally done with the research that I was assigned with and it took me four days to get it done. I hoped that Mr. Davison wouldn't mind although it was his fault because he chose such a complicated topic. I was a bit disappointed in myself regardless. I felt like as a lawyer, I should get my work done quickly. I was confident that my report was well informed, but I didn't think that it would take me this long. "Don't beat yourself up too much," Flynn said as he smiled at me and I looked at him. Today, he was seated across from me unlike his usual spot much further down the long desk. I didn't mind it though. We came here for work and as long as he didn't say or do anything stupid, he could sit in front of me as much as he liked. "Yeah, but I'll be faster next time," I answered. "You've probably produced quality work though." "Quality over a short period of

I hummed in satisfaction as I pulled away from the kiss and Andre nuzzled his face against my neck. I chuckled. "What's up with you?" "What do you mean?" "You're so forceful today." "Did it make you angry?" I turned and faced him. "It didn't." "Then, can I ask why you were ignoring me?" My smile faltered and I nervously looked to the side. After my whole session in my room, I've been a little ashamed to face him. I have never jacked off over anyone so, I felt kind of nasty. I didn't know what he would think if he found out that I had such thoughts about him. This was all Flynn's fault! He should've kept his mouth shut. Andre probably wouldn't mind it but he might think that I want to sleep with him. I did want to sleep with him but saying it was so embarrassing. I didn't want him to think that I was a very horny teenager who jacked off to him earlier today. "I just... I didn't want to talk

"Oh, honey! Welcome home!" Mom exclaimed with a smile as she pulled my chuckling father into a tight hug. "Thanks, Jane," he said as he returned it and gently patted her back. "How was your trip?" "It was great. Despite it taking long, we managed to land the contract." "Congratulations. We should celebrate it." I stood on the stairs quietly as I watched the interaction between my parents. I rarely saw them being lovely-dovey so, I was feeling out of place. My father got me out of my room so that we could welcome Mom together, but her attention was instantly on Dad the moment she laid her eyes on him. I could understand her though. He hadn't been home for two weeks and she obviously felt lonely. I couldn't imagine how I would feel if Andre had to be gone for two weeks. I couldn't even deal with him spending the night out. I groaned internally when I realised that I was starting to feel depressed again. I f
