“Okay… he`s not that old he`s just two or three or four years max older than I am.”I couldn’t even pretend to be calm anymore my little sister was hiring gigolos? “You know what I mean, why would you hire someone to have sex with you, period. Its a question not a nuclear bomb stop deflecting.”“Okay look . . . I know it'll sound stupid stupid- heck it is stupid. they started calling me names.” She twiddled her fingers subconsciously as she said it and I tried my best to comprehend.“Who is they?”“The girls in my class, and some of the boys too. They were calling me . . .” She hesitated. “ . .Mary.”“Huh? That`s not an insult that`s a great name, is it possible that some one mispronounce your name and they got confused?” I tried to wrap my head around it.“No Cat. Mary as in the virgin Mary. Most of the girls in my class are hooking up with boys and rubbing it in my face like no guy wants to have sex with me or I'm some sort of freak and that I`d die a virgin?”I controlled the urge
“Oh my God. Adrian I`m so sorry. “ I peeked to my sister in the living room silently watching the TV. There was no way I could leave her after what just transpired. “Its cool. “ “ I really am sorry. Next time?” “Yeah sure.” he actually sounded bummed. “Have a safe landing.” And then the line went silent after a beep. Will I regret having ditched him? No. But am I going to leave my sister after she let me see her so vulnerable like that. Double No. “I am demanding juicy details when you get back.” Emma who had no doubt heard the entire conversation was leaning in the kitchen doorway startled me. “Emma were you eavesdropping.” “After seeing your reaction to the call and his contact name - if you can call it that- you really think I wouldn`t?” Okay she had a point. “Just because I saved his contact like a high school-er doesn`t meant I am going to throw away my extra years of maturing and go see some guy rather than stay with my sister. besides chicks over dicks.” “You don’t hav
“What?” She was understandably confused. I sat ran a hand through my hair before letting them relax on my lap. “What I am saying is, I am fucking gorgeous.” Emma rolled her eyes before I could continue. “But if I am an 8 then you are a 10. you may have pubescent body and braces right now but everyone says it, even I see it. When you are done with your . . . awkward years, girl you will be a sight to behold. And even if you were turnip faced, you should only have sex when you want to and when you are ready not when people think that you should be. I have known you all your life Em and that is why i am pained to see you sell yourself short.” I tried not to cringe as I said the last sentence knowing how hypocritical it may sound considering five minutes ago I was wailing over a guy who probably didn’t care. “Are you just telling me this because I`m your sister or you really think so?” “I am telling you this despite you being my sister you are so annoying that you don’t deserve to hear
Catherine was one of the people who who agreed that dreams were a reflection of ones inner thoughts or fears. Which is why this dream made absolutely no sense. Fine she had a crush on her professor, but half the population of the class did and the person she was in love with was Adrian. She had even developed the habit of mapping out their whole lives in her head, and occasionally the back pages of her lecture note books, yes it was high school-ish but it wasn't her fault that he looked so dreamy whole dozing off in class, and not a single hair out of place, She wondered how he did that, in her case even on her good days by the time she got back home, it was not a hair in place. One part of her contemplated diving back under the blanket and another was saying it was best to get up rather than putting off facing the harsh reality that is her involvement in this life. The former won and just as she rest her alarm she noticed her phone screen turn on signifying a notification but not
All through the way, my mind was clouded by the thought of Adrain. The dick didn't make an effort to call and check up on me and that hurt badly. I heaved a sign, which was more of frustration than anger. Which made me think if I was exaggerating things that weren't there, how was I sure if Adrian really liked me not to talk of love. "Was I placing myself where I shouldn't be?" I facepalmed myself thinking of how ridiculous I was to think a rich, heavenly like bring would settle for a nobody like me."Oh Catherine dear," I murmured, pitying myself as I picked the invisible dirt that was in my fingernails.I looked outside the window of the moving taxi, there seemed to be a bit of a traffic and a lot of horning, thankfully the glasses were rolled up, reducing the sharp sound and noises of the wild life outside.I checked the Time and realized I had just some minutes left and wished the driver could go any way fast but it wasn't possible from the traffic that was moving so slow. I heav
It was quite alarming each time, Mr Brandon comes somewhat close to me while we walk to the restaurant. I get the high sensual feeling and it was so high that I hardly want our eyes to meet, scared he might be able to read what I feel.It downed on me that the night club was having a huge effect on my thinking and everything fucking turns me on. Emerald once told me that maybe because I was still a virgin that was why I hardly think straight which might now begin to make sense.I reached for the door but was stopped by Mr Brandon who held my hand midway, the electrifying feeling I got from his touch made me remember the faceless man in the strip club. How much I wish to see him, and now my honey pot is taking a toll on me.He open the door and offer I go in first and I swear again I felt like a princess that I should have been, he was the only person so far who has ever treated me with such sweet gesture and I can't help but love and appreciate it.Funny that I was worried sick of my
Grrizzzzzzzzz! Grrizzzzzzzz!I struggled to turn off alarm without opening my eyes. Yes it was my alarm that sounded like that. It originally sounded like `Ringggggg! Ringggggggg!` But it was a like million years old. I scooted to the edge of my bed and tried to reach for the alarm eyes closed and to snooze it, just five more minutes, five more minutes of bliss, my hand not fully awake swiped and everything on my nightstand ended up in the floor with loud crashing noises which jolted me awake and led my to scrambling movements that had me sliding off the bed, my tangled bed sheets wrapped around and entrapping my left leg.I quickly held on to the floral patterned curtain at my window and ended up pulling the whole thing off as I ended up on the floor, the curtain over me, my alarm clock still of course ringing.My name is Catherine and I hate my life."What the fucking hell is wrong with you."A 40 year old woman barged into the room with an overnight mask raised to the top of her he
Catherine.Adrian Peterson, the new transfer student in my class who just walked in now. Tall, rich and egoistic and a bad influence, I nearly sighed out loud. The man of my dreams. In my 20 years of life I've never been in love, didn't even believe in it but this, this is it. Mrs Catherine Peterson, rolls right off the tongue, doesn't it? Or thoughts rather since no one knows of my love for him. Except of course Beast and Emerald. They think it's just a crush and he's a jerk who doesn't deserve my affections but they don't know him like I do. Since the first time I saw him slam the door on a lecturer I knew our first son's name was going to be Adrian junior. Yeah, he's an antisocial guy with anger issues but he has his reasons I'm sure.The class ended and as I was walking out of the lecture hall, I was trying to get my vibrating cell phone out of my bag while walking and bumped into Adrian who seemed to have been distracted too.He mumbled an apology and I couldn't help it. I giggle
