~Aoife~Matt got his new writer’s job at the magazine where he would write blogs on different topics. It’s been a while, but he’s happy to get it. This month’s topic was quite interesting: Relationship Between Couples. I am sure he will give his best. I remember the day he came to me after the interview. He literally crushed me in his arms with love and appreciation for forcing him to try for the job and pursue his writing dreams. He was all set to take the world.Matt was avoiding Neeral, and I wanted to set him up with this beautiful girl. As a friend, it’s my duty to find the best girl for him. She liked him from the moment they met, but the gentleman he is never used his charms on her. They spend most of the time together in the office, but Matt never opened up to her as she did. So, I took charge of bringing them together.We all are going out for dinner to celebrate Matt’s new achievement.Xander being Xander lost in his own world of bullying people, except me. I didn’t know why
~Aoife~I prepared myself for the party wearing a mustard colored laced, bell sleeved, short dress. My heart was aching. I needed to learn how to handle these situations, considering it was not the first time the same man had shattered my heart. But somehow, when the trouble comes, either we go through it or grow through it. I choose to grow through it and put up a genuine smile for the people I love. I wore my brown ankle boots and straightened my hair, complimenting my face with yellow loops.With eyeliner and volume mascara, I added some brown, smokey eyeshadow. I needed to cover up with makeup, otherwise Matt would notice my swollen eyes. When I saw the taxi waiting outside, I grabbed my clutch, reading myself for the night ahead. When I got out of the taxi, I stood outside of the restaurant waiting for Matt and Neeral.Suddenly, someone wrapped their arm around my waist, and I found Xander standing beside me.He looked handsome in his tight white t-shirt covered with a denim jack
~Aoife~I found myself on a soft bed with a dizzy head and blurry vision. Everything that happened to me was so sudden I couldn’t connect the dots of being captured by someone. I looked around, seeing long white curtains flowing with the soothing breeze from the floor-to-ceiling windows filling the space with natural light.It was a scenic view of nature, but where the hell am I? Am I in heaven where angels are waiting for me to walk with them? Am I dead? Because the view in front of my eyes looks like heaven. But heaven doesn’t have curtains. Does it?I got up immediately and tried to assess where I was. The room was enormous, and everything was white. I was definitely in heaven with the fluffy white carpet, couch, curtain, walls, and white bed, so I pinched myself. Then I heard a song played by my favorite singer.What the heck? How is his voice echoing through this place?I checked myself in the mirror, finding myself dressed in silk sleepwear with an open robe. Cool, at least I die
~Aoife~Does he think I’m his property? Why did he bring me here and not even regret his actions? I was talking to myself when I came out of the house, checking that his dog did not follow me.“Well, let’s walk, Aoife. We will reach home once we find the route.” I took out my phone, opened G****e Maps, and entered the address, trying to figure out how much I had to walk.“What the heck?”There is no way I can walk that far?I refreshed it and looked for a road or something to get me out of here.“Where the hell am I? Why is it not showing a normal way to leave?” I screamed.Stupid phone. I will figure it out by myself. After walking for the next forty-five minutes, I reached a cliff. I could see seagulls and the sounds of waves. When I looked around, I saw an open ocean spreading its arm towards me.“The sea?” I whispered.I rechecked my phone's exact location. “What? Am I on some kind of island?”The first thing that popped into my head was, how will I go back?I wanted to scream a
~Xander~The sun went down, passing its goodbyes and spreading the vermillion brightness in the sky.“Thank you for bringing me here.” She presented me with a killer smile and sparkling eyes. I snaked her hand into mine, smiling at her. I was out of words and wanted to just celebrate her presence quietly. Her eyes filled with emotions and happiness watching seagulls and the sea waves.“I love your eyes.” Cupping her face, I scanned them one more time. She blushed, and her smile changed into a chuckle when I gave her an unexpected twirl before we headed back to the house.“I have a surprise for you.” “What? You surprised me already by meeting Ace and family.”She shrugged, and that surprised me. I have never seen a girl whose happiness comes from little things like this.“A beautiful dinner with this handsome man.” I winked.“Uh... huh, handsome man? I didn’t see anyone here.” She hooded her eyes to tease me, looking around as if to find someone.“Seriously?” I laughed before I ran
~Xander~As we entered the home, I cupped my hands over Aoife’s eyes for another surprise. When she opened them and saw I filled the house with candles, she gasped with surprise.I hugged her from the back and rested my chin on her shoulder.“How many more surprises?” She tilted her head toward me. I softly bit her shoulder, holding her hand in mine.She hissed out a moan as her body started reacting to me again. It’s not the words talking anymore. It was the touch that ignited the heat in her chest. The goosebumps and the heavy breathing took over her.“Relax, I won’t do anything you don’t want me to do.” I released her and backed myself away.I wanted her so badly. We had confessed our love and hoped it was time to take the next step. My body craved her, but I was not sure about her. She was unlike other girls who wanted to crawl under me for a night. For her, it’s all emotions and love, and I was ready to give it all.The moment was silent as the flickering of candles showed our si
~XanderFlickering my eyes to adjust to the morning lights, I don’t remember the last time I slept so peacefully. I trailed my hand across the bed to find Aoife, but she wasn’t there. I could still smell her fragrance on my body and with eager eyes, I was waiting to see her beautiful face. But where is she?I threw off my duvet when I heard a sound coming from the kitchen. While walking, I gulped down a bottle of water I had at my bedside for my morning routine, but the last sip got choked in my throat when I saw her perfect round ass bend down to put something in the oven.Once she backed up, she looked perfect, facing her back towards me.Her floral skirt, a one-shoulder green crop top revealing her belly button, and a messy bun caught my lustful thoughts. I extended my good morning, but she didn’t hear my words. On closer observation, I saw earplugs in her ears. Slightly shaking her ass, she was enjoying the songs and making breakfast. Did she know she looked like a snack to me?Slo
~Xander~After enjoying some beautiful moments together, Aoife and I headed back to the college. I wanted to stay for the entire week, but Aoife was concerned about her exams. After her exam, she promised to come back to the island with me. It did not bother me about her exams because I knew I could control the examiners and her results if she’d let me, but she warned me not to get involved. She wanted to be honest with her studies.Her honesty and respect for her dreams surprise me. While we were in the car, she informed me about Matt’s message and the reply he had sent. She rolled her eyes at my reaction. I don’t want anybody to bother us, not even my best friend.“I need to go to my dorm and prepare myself for my exams. I already missed two lectures.” Aoife’s eyes stayed on the road.“Come on, Aoife. Let’s go somewhere to be alone.” Holding her left hand, I kissed it gently.“We just left. I would love to spend time with you, but I also need to return to work. You took me that nigh
