The CEO's Daughter 19
It had already been about 10 minutes that we had both been quiet, I was cautious with my approach to the subject. I knew what Tony was going through and although I knew what words could cheer him up, I couldn't say them, my tongue was tongue-tied and it was inevitable to remember when that happened to me.It was a starry night, I had a boyfriend who was just perfect. His name is Henry, he is a year older than me and he was studying in my same university, he has chocolate colored eyes and his hair was light brown, very similar to Tony's. He was so loving and detailed and was so affectionate and detailed with me, he always remembered everything I told him and important dates. When we were about to celebrate our second birthday together, I organized a big surprise party for both of us, since it was also his birthday. We were all hiding in his house, our friends were there. When he came home, the one who got the surprise was me. As I didn't know it was a surprise party at his house, he

Pov Ethan I sighed once again, as I threw a tennis ball at the wall and it came back at me. I couldn't help it, but I had a big smile on my face and all because of that kiss.I never thought she would ever get my attention, until recently I thought she was an unfeeling person who didn't care about anyone, but when I saw her, I felt something different was coming. I remember when I took the job without even knowing her, I wasn't working as a babysitter, I was actually studying engineering, but I needed money for my studies and also, for my mother.When I was barely 6 years old, my father left my mother and me penniless. Since I was little I had to work and my mother had to break her back to support me and pay for a decent school. When I was 10 years old my mother got pregnant by a man who mistreated her, but when that big son of a bitch realized his mistake, he committed suicide. Now it was my younger brother, my mother and me. Today my brother is going to school, my mother is in

I tried to stick my ear to the door to hear some kind of word or a sob, but nothing happened. I felt my blood boiling inside my skin, I looked askance at the boy in the room a few steps away, he sounded cheerful, so much and it was very suspicious.Maybe I was thinking the whole situation wrong and should think a little more clearly.I heard the bathroom door open and turned quickly to find Minerva. I was very worried about her."Are you feeling better?" I approached."How long have you been there?" She asked and walked past me as if she didn't really care about my answer.I heard her voice muffled and distant."Fifteen minutes," I admitted, chasing her down the hall."It wasn't necessary for you to wait for me the whole time I was there."She stopped with her purse in her hands. I didn't notice when she stopped, until I noticed I was very close to her, but it was too late.When she turned around, she bumped into my chest and stared into my eyes. That's when I realized something."Yo

Her laughter snapped me out of my thoughts."So you think that even though X amount of time has passed, the fact that I'm still hurting is insignificant?" her voice crack. I shook my head slightly, tried to reach out to hug her, but she pulled away before I could even touch her, "You know what? You're right, I should start trusting the people around me, but believe me I didn't underestimate you at all, you're exactly as I thought, an arrogant, an idiot, a stupid jerk who doesn't care how others feel. It's none of your business whether or not I'm still over that fucker who hurt me, like you care! Mind your own business," she sounded so annoyed that people just stared at us.Now Minerva had misinterpreted my words, well, maybe I had exaggerated a bit, but hell, I was annoyed, okay? I didn't want her to be thinking about someone she was with 8 months ago, I had to start looking forward, didn't she care about anything we had done?"Minerva…" I whispered her name and she turned away from

I woke up with a jolt and stretched as much as I could, my back was killing me.I had fallen asleep on the couch, I got up, stretching fully once again to get some of the laziness I still had in my body out.When I went to grab the plate I had used, the cookie I had left last night was gone and the glass of coke wasn't there either, just the empty plate.I took several deep breaths so as not to start screaming, closed my eyes and counted to ten. I wished with all my might that my hunch was wrong.I grabbed the plate and took it to the kitchen, peeked timidly to see if anyone was inside.It was empty, I sighed in relief and walked quietly into the kitchen, washed the plate and found the glass of coke in the sink. I looked everywhere and there was nothing to be heard, it seemed as if I was the only one there.I put water on to boil to make coffee and then went to sit at the kitchen table, leaning my forehead against it, closing my eyes and covering myself with both arms.I closed my eye

I wish it had worked...The remaining days before we left for the beach were a real torture.I had been faithful to my magnificent plan, every time I had the opportunity to cross paths with him, I would look at him with desire and I would wear little clothes and make sexy poses to provoke him, besides I insisted on touching him unnecessarily.Of course every time he saw me, would tense up and sometimes I even thought he was blushing. He was always at home, except in the evenings, when he would disappear without any explanation.Something that I never saw as an obstacle in my plan was that I also felt the friction, he also looked at me with desire, for a moment I thought he was devouring me with his eyes and the worst thing was that I liked it, I liked having the attention of a man like that, that he saw me that way, that he desired me.I loved the attention from him.I didn't want to admit it, I couldn't, it was something unacceptable, so much that I made an effort to make him suffer,

"You're a...!" I remained with the word in my mouth, pointing my index finger at him.The truth is that I had no idea what insult I could say to him, I couldn't think of a good one."Uh? Come on, you can do it," his tone of voice was mocking.I was quiet for a few moments, thinking fast what I could say to him, but nothing was coming to my mind at that moment."I don't really know what to say," I reluctantly admitted.I shrunk back in my seat and folded my arms, frowning and looking out the window.Ethan laughed again, making me feel a pleasant tingle in my stomach, and said nothing more for the rest of the trip.After that conversation, we didn't talk other than to stop if I had to go to the bathroom or get something to eat or things like that.Already only 30 minutes away from arriving at my friend's house, I could see the sea and hear the waves, which thrilled me completely. I loved the beach so much.When my friend Amelia saw us from her upper terrace, she waved to us. Ivan was ne

I needed to meditate on everything that had happened earlier that day.I didn't mind his morbidities so much anymore, were even funny sometimes.Every time he kissed me I didn't want him to stop and I even wanted him to continue to the next level and finally, my chest hurt every time I remembered that he was my boyfriend only to cheat on a thousand to one people who weren't even friends of mine.But I didn't understand why, I didn't know if the feeling was because he wasn't my real "boyfriend" or because I cheated on so many people in one night.Nor did I understand why I liked his kisses so much. Well, he's obviously a good kisser, but I've kissed other men who are also good kissers... although none of them made me feel what this fool did, even if it was just a simple brush.And most disturbing of all, I wasn't bothered by his morbidities! Now I rather thought about it morbidly in my head too.What on earth was going on, me morbid? In what world?Before I met him I was an angel comin
