_____________________ Nora's POV: As Xavier stared at me with a furrowed brow and a slight shock in his eyes, I felt a mix of emotions. I could see the genuine surprise in his expression as my words hung in the air. The truth was, I was conflicted between the undeniable attraction I felt towards him and the cautionary signals my brain was sending. Xavier, usually confident and assertive, seemed momentarily taken aback. He took a step back, creating a little distance between us. His eyes searched mine, as if trying to decipher the thoughts swirling in my mind. "You don't trust me?" he asked, his voice carrying a hint of hurt. "It's not that simple," I replied, avoiding direct eye contact. "Your reputation precedes you, Xavier. I've seen how you are with other girls, and it's hard to believe I'd be any different." Xavier sighed, a mixture of frustration and understanding crossing his features. He ran a hand through his dark hair, a habit I noticed he had when he was contemplating s
"Girl! Where were you?! I was looking for you like a crazy!" Natasha bombarded me with questions as I came back to the stall and Xavier went to his friends."I....Natasha, Ash I want to tell you something important," I said slowly and that got their attention faster than a whip slash."Speak up!" Ash said impatiently looking at me with narrowed eyes."Xavieraskedmetobehisgirlfriend." I said in single breath."Ash did you understand what robotic code she just uttered?" Natasha said sarcastically and Ash shook her head looking at me with same narrowed eyes."Guys! Okay! Xavier asked me to be his girlfriend and I said yes." I said enthusiastically and smiled but my smile flattened seeing their shocked faces."What?!" They both yelled in unison."Yeah...." I said awkwardly. What's so shocking?"My brother Xavier asked you to be his girlfriend?" Natasha asked each word pressing.I felt like she was insulting me."Yeah!" My voice came out harsh than what I felt."Xavier don't do relationship
We reached his friends and shockingly Natasha was already there with Ashley and talking to Elijah. Till now I have only chatted with Ben and Cole. "Hey dude! In for the club tonight?" Elijah said bro hugging Xavier. "Obviously!" Xavier said as he bro-hugged both Cole and Ben and ruffled Natasha's hair to groaned in return."Xavier if you touched my hair once again, I would shave your head in sleep!" Natasha warned him and he smirked pulling her hair lightly making her scream dramatically. Therefore their siblings bickering started and Elijah put it to end by coming in between and saying,"Nora, Nat, Ashley why don't you all come to club with us too?" "Do professor Asher also go to your club?" Ashley asked the question directly to Xavier."Unfortunately, yes. He comes on every Friday." Xavier said sourly."Oh...I am coming." Ashley said a little to enthusiastically making boys frown in confusion and I and Nora shook our head.She seriously needs to stop going after our professor no
It was a holiday, and I was baking a cake for my younger brother, Samuel birthday that is tomorrow.It's been three days since the night at the club. After a passionate kiss, we left the club and went to a diner. We had a burger and I had to pretend to eat with etiquette so much!I will, again and again, rub tissue over lips to remove any sauces to avoid myself from embarrassing myself in front of my boyfriend.After that, he dropped me home and left but not before kissing me. Ah! I can never get tired of his spooning kisses.I am so so happy. I finally have a boyfriend who loves me or maybe interested me. With each passing day, I feel myself falling deeply in love with him.With each passing day, a part of my heart is becoming his and I have control over my naive heart.I know I shouldn't rush things and mess up my feelings, but I can't stop my heart.It's gone crazy in his presence. It starts to beat faster at an erratic pace making me scared I may suffer a heart attack if I stayed a
the ringing of my mobile thankfully stopped my brain shit sessionAshley callingI picked up the call and said hello...."Nora, have you completed Mr Asher assignments? Can you please send me the picture so I can copy it down? I want him to think I am great at math." She said enthusiastically and too gleefully."Yes, I will send them to you," I said and thought if I should ask her the question or not."Thank you, babe." Her voice was relieved."Ash, I want to ask you a question." Okay, let be out with it. It's now or never!"Yeah?""Are you virgin?" OkayyyyyAward of biggest idiot goes to Nora Williams!"Hahaha, why are you so curious?" She chuckled and I felt utterly embarrassed.Award of biggest idiot goes OFFICIALLY to Nora Williams!"Just a general question," I said biting my nails which is my very bad habit whenever I am nervous!"Yes, I am a virgin and I have no plan of losing my virginity to any stranger. Well, if Professor Asher promises me of marriage, then maybe but not to a
I rush out of the home and looked at the Xavier who was leaning on his sleek black Porsche waiting anxiously. His eyes fell on me, and he double checked out me and smirked. Let see what fate held for us my dear Xavier Throne..... "Hello hot cake!" He called out and I laughed. "Hello handsome!" I giggled softly and he came closer kissing my forehead. "I missed you." He said and my heart fluttered in sheer happiness. "I miss you too." I smiled softly as he took my hand in his and gently took into passenger seat. He opened the car door for me like a true gentleman. I smiled brightly and said thank you. "Anything for my girlfriend," I blushed and sighed as I relaxed on the seat. "Air conditioner or windows down?" He asked and I looked at beautiful weather. "Windows down," With hat he let windows down. "You look so beautiful Nora." His compliments made all the butterflies in my stomach go all mad. "Thank you! You look cute too." I said nervously. Nora seriously?!! Cute?! "Wh
Xavier Pov; "Dude, don't you think Nora is a nice girl to be treated this way. She is not like your usual play toys." Cole said as he took a whiff of his cigarette. "Yeah, she is nice girl, but I have a bet to win." I told him openly and took a deep inhale of cigarette. Nora Nora, my sweet short kitten...... Her innocent eyes keep flashing in my mind whenever I close my making me groan in irritation. "You will hurt the girl very badly Xavier. I think you should stop this bet thing—." I cut him off harshly. "Why do you care so much?! Do you have feelings for her?!" Why he is so damn concerned about my Nora! My Nora?! What the fuck Xavier?! She is just a bet that I have to win. "I am just saying it because you may not see but you will end up fucked by karma for breaking an innocent's heart!" He said calmly not at all bothered by my rude tone earlier. "Whatever!" I didn't care at all. "By the way that girl is a sexy as hell." Ben said and I don't know why but my fist tightened
The bell rang again, and I excused myself. I rushed to the door. I open the door only to be left shell shocked. Great! Can this day get any better?! There stood my.... Parents. With a wide smile plastered on their face. "Oh sweetheart I missed you, my baby!" My mom said in loud tone as she hugged me knocking the air out of me. "Oh yeah mom! I missed you too." I told her smiling as I moved forward kissing her on her forehead. I just hope Nora don't come running out... "Aww my baby! You have been very bad these past days! Didn't even come to meet your loving parents." My mother scolded in her loving voice and I groaned. "Son," my dad who is just my elder version called out and I moved forward to hug him. "Xavier...?" Nora voice reached my ears making my eyes go wide.... Oh damn it!! Not now please!! I turned around and looked at Nora who was standing at a distance looking at us nervously. Gosh! What am I going to tell mom and dad. "Hello dear! Who you migh
