There was a slow hum around her that she hadn’t noticed before and the atmosphere around the hotel bar seemed to be nice enough.

He was looking at her with those steely green eyes his unwavering gaze seeming to gleam regardless of whether his face was cast in light or in shadows by the discontinued street lights. “Now you’re apologizing?” She said with a slight smirk which he returned. “I know I must have been a bit too blunt with you.

A person she was trying hard not to remember right then.Getting out of bed, she made her way toward the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge.Don’t think, Don’t think…“Seriously, just how trashed you must be to be saying this,”“Are you going to do it or not?”Water sprayed out of her mouth as she choked on the remaining drops.No!

I mean, this is already complicated enough, and if we add that to the mess, I’m afraid our relationship wouldn’t make it,” Aira declares ignoring the voice inside her head who wanted more and more.“I would rather have you as a fr
