1. 16. Dance With Me
Next week arrives with a blur of work and I have a hard time getting a breath.
The fact that I had to create a balance in between my secret boyfriend and best friend wasn't helping enough either. Secret boyfriend because paparazzi can't know about us and we would like to avoid any until we actually get caught and Jason can't know that way either. Considering I almost slipped it out to him a bazillion times in a week is no surprise either.
By the time weekend arrives, I'm beat. This doesn't stop Liza to drag my ass for clubbing though.
"God, Liza! Last thing I want to do is party after the week I had. Even a spa at this point would suffice or much better, leave me alone", I exclaim on the phone.
"That's exactly why I need your ass out in about an hour. I talked to Clinton too and he's ready to kick it, so I don't need any excuses, okay?", she orders.
"But what-", I start but she hangs up instantly.
"-about, Jason", I trail off and stare at my

I feel the sheets underneath my naked and sensitive skin as I lay down on them gently. Easing my way into the covers, arching my back as I feel it grazing my tender nipples.My hands start working on my body as I slide them from my thighs to my neck only stopping enough to gently squeeze the globes on my chest and arching my back again, getting more wet with every minute in that place between my legs.I moan softly before sliding one of my hands from my neck to that wet-ness while the other hand works on my breast, squeezing them enough to elicit a moan as anticipation builds in my core.Just when I'm about to reach my clit, a hand stops me and instantly my eyes blink open to a pair of familiar ones."Jason?""Yup that's me, now where were we, love?" he wonders about himself.My heart rate increases as I realize he's hovering over me.Oh My God."Ah
Than There Was Us 1. 18. Stubborn
After Clinton had gone, it was hard to not feel mad at Jason. Every time he joked around me, tried to tease me or even try to touch me, I would just get another notch irritated with his presence.Even the ice cream tasted bland. And don't even get me started on the stuff Clinton bought. I had a hard time swallowing it down my throat and not bursting into tears. My face had nearly started to ache from passing out fake smiles all day.All I wanted to do was lash out.I don't know how but we made it till dinner, having watched movies all day. Jason had ordered some pizza because none of us were in the mood to cook despite having sat on our asses all day.We were sprawled in front of my couch, on the carpet. Me on one end and Jason on the other with huge packets of this and that lying around us.We had just finished another movie and I was about to suggest another before Jason switched off t

We fit together like pieces of a puzzle and I crumble in his arms like an autumn leaf. His kiss so soft yet hard and felt. I shiver from the passion in it.We crumble on the ground in each other's embrace and he pulls me in his lap, having withdrawn from the kiss now only to pepper my face with it. His thumbs come up to brush the tears away from beneath my eyes, all the while as I look at him.His face is a mixture of pain and agony. As if he had been holding back but not anymore. His eyes are shining and I cannot help but smile at him my own watery smile.Oh, Clinton.He grabs for my hands and brings them to his lips, kissing the back of them. His lips firm, stay for a second too long as if savoring it."I'm sorry. I'm so sorry", he looks at the ground, not meeting my eyes.An unexpected chuckle leaves my lips, relieved."It's okay", I murmur again and again
Than There Was Us 1. 20. Tease
I dig my nails into his shoulders and slam my lips against his before another thought could disrupt my purpose."Not tonight. I want you, tonight", I tell him in between our kiss and pull at his lip.Next thing I hear is his growl into the kiss which reverberates deep in my core, making me shiver.Before I can comprehend further, he's already grabbing my thighs up and around him. I immediately lock them around his waist as he pulls my torso flush against him, hauling us out of the pool as we kiss the fuck out of each other.Teasing, biting, grazing, until I'm just a wet mess in his hands. The only sounds echoing through his silent manor are our moans and groans.Water from the pool dripping onto his hardwood floor but he pays it no heed as he ravishes me with his kisses, leading us all the way through the stairs and up into his bedroom.He kicks
Than There Was Us 1. 21. 1. Interrogation
That weekend, we stayed in bed. At least, most of the time. It just seemed like we couldn't get enough of each other.And Monday arrived a little too early than I wanted it too.Leaving for work wasn't easy but somehow we parted or tried to at least.We texted all day with all the innuendos and lot in the mix. By the time lunch rolled in, Clinton had already came to whisk me away.And that is how I found myself in a hot car-sex session half hour later.I usually avoid such scandalous methods and would rather wait until I'm home but somehow Clinton is very convincing and I'm just too weak willed to actually say no to him more than twice.I totally blame it on our wandering hands.Whenever we're in reach of other, we just can't seem to stop. Ever since that night at his mansion, it seems like a whole new level of intimacy has formed between us.
Than There Was Us 1. 21. 2. Interrogation
Jason didn't come back until half the day was gone and I was deep in my covers, hiding my already red-from-crying face.I just heard the front door open and being slammed again. Though when I checked, he only came back for his clothes, probably from his whole week vacation he had here.I really need to stop giving my spare keys to everyone I know, honestly.Everyone just barges in whenever the hell they want.On the other hand, Clinton didn't text me like usual for most of the day. Probably because he already told me, he would be busy in a conference for most of the day. And I'm glad for that.I wanted to have some alone time without the boys for at least a day anyway.Maybe this was for the better.I think to myself as I drive over to Liza's to spring on her a much needed girl's sleepover.It's almost 7pm r

Next morning waking up was a task in itself.Liza got ready way too early like it was a usual routine for her. She woke me up after she was ready to go and dragged my ass to my car before driving it to my apartment.God bless such friends, I swear.Liza obviously further dragged my ass back into my apartment and ordered me to get freshened up because we needed to eat breakfast as well before heading to the office.I had to groan in protest but all in vain as I know she's stubborn as a wall so I had to oblige.Also, she's been taking a lot of workload on herself. I think it's about time I remedied that aspect of her life.And also get serious about my work.Lord knows, I've been having a vacation for the longest time ever while also being on the job.Weird, right? I know.Somehow, we still manage t
Than There Was Us 1. 23. My Everything
I've been avoiding Clinton for the past week.And to say it has been really easy would be an understatement.He texts me every once in a while but doesn't even mention meeting up with me. No more lunch dates or dates in general. He's been so fishy for the past week, it's as if he's avoiding me for an altogether other reason.Obviously, I miss him.To the point, I actually think he's having an affair behind my back. But that's not possible, he loves me.But what if...He was a player in the past and it's not like I'm some witch he's under the spell of that has suddenly snagged him up to the point he has forgotten his ways.Definitely not.But I've been too busy my own self, what with work and Jason's statements from that day in the back of my mind still lingering like a very fresh wound.The fact t
