I was in the mood for dancing and getting drunk, since Alex had sent one and only message since the day I called him, two days ago. He was hoping I was having fun without him and that he missed me. I didn’t have the chance to answer as he had sent it while I was sleeping.489Please respect copyright.PENANAZlTTCp4YqN
489Please respect copyright.PENANAiqtx8CfEV7
I was dancing with Cleo at a hip hop beat but when the song was over and we turned towards the rest of them; I noticed I was alone with Damien as Cleo was glued to Mike. Matt was all over Jenny and Max and Lexie where nowhere to be seen. I put my hand on Damien’ s neck and pulled his ear close to my mouth.489Please respect copyright.PENANAPE6iWjYtLs
489Please respect copyright.PENANAar2mQ6pmJ4
“Where’s Max?” I asked him when he leaned down. He put his hand on my waist and turned me around; showing towards the wall on our right with his bottle of beer. I could only see Max’s back and Lexie’ s hands around his neck. I chuckled and turn back to the bar; ordering my third beer.489Please respect copyright.PENANAgyVrPowAJ6
489Please respect copyright.PENANAOcOUm3LZCe
“Hey, slow down,” I heard Damien’s voice in my ear. I ignored him and paid the barman. I turned back to Damien, sipping my beer and looking at him in the eye just to make sure he knew that I heard him but ignored him.489Please respect copyright.PENANAz1uwuSXMI7
489Please respect copyright.PENANADSN56e3cSu
I glanced at my mobile screen, in case a message had come and didn’t felt the vibration in my pocket; it was blank.489Please respect copyright.PENANAb32QS3oNbI
489Please respect copyright.PENANAuBwrluGbWT
I pressed my lips together angrily, turned the phone off and put it back into my pocket; Damien looking down at me. I took a mouthful sip of my beer. Fuck this.489Please respect copyright.PENANAh4PQYEUZ6I

Damien pushed me up the stairs as I didn’t want to move from my spot; giggling about everything. He was behind me, his body almost touching mine, both of his hands on my torso as he led me to his bed.489Please respect copyright.PENANAWvqYVdZYIP
I sat on the bed and put my elbows on my knees. I felt a bulge against my hip and I put my hand in my back pocket and pulled out my mobile.489Please respect copyright.PENANAGSExLzZyeE
489Please respect copyright.PENANANnYtDtHRrK
“Not even a message,” I mumbled as I tossed it on the bedside table.489Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7ZRvlq9Je
489Please respect copyright.PENANAPmF0PosFMc
“It's closed Erica,” Damien replied kneeling down in front of me “You okay?” he asked.489Please respect copyright.PENANAuhlqGJ6Mq1
489Please respect copyright.PENANAgLHSAtIqmc
“I need to take a bath before go to sleep,” I pouted “To sober up,” I explained and he nodded helping me up. I assured him I would be okay in the bathroom alone and promised to leave the door unlocked, just in case.489Please respect copyright.PENANAUHr4g1DLrx
489Please respect copyright.PENANALgPINDb9uI
I took a hot bath and wrapped a towel around my body when I remembered I hadn’t got any clothes. I sat on the edge of the bathtub for while, deciding what to do. But being drunk, time as I was thinking it, wasn’t the actual time. I must have stayed there longer than I thought because a knock on the door startled me.489Please respect copyright.PENANA3swcpNxTPm
489Please respect copyright.PENANAY6srSiSPPm
“Erica?” I heard Damien calling me.489Please respect copyright.PENANAV7HQBZ9N2v
489Please respect copyright.PENANAcEYFEMIk7t
“Yeah,” I said sleepy. He opened the door and stared at me. “I need clothes,” I pouted. He chuckled and left only to come back a minute later.489Please respect copyright.PENANAwWEnCmYIre
489Please respect copyright.PENANADC41Emglh3
“Here,” he said softly handing me my red short and my black tank top I was sleeping in.489Please respect copyright.PENANAvKyfgWeg9U
489Please respect copyright.PENANAqfAxw2mRW9
“I need underwear Damien,” I frowned.489Please respect copyright.PENANAzsF2nndw3F
489Please respect copyright.PENANAnlqEAdz1Qa
“Those are the only clothes you had in my room. I am not going into Cleo's room right now,” he coughed “If you get my drift.”489Please respect copyright.PENANAuhjwNo29hL
489Please respect copyright.PENANA3m5XQ2xZx0
“Okay. Out,” I ordered and got dressed when he closed the door.489Please respect copyright.PENANAC5JqcNYHbz

Sometime in the night I was cold and pulled myself closer to the body that was lying next to me. He pulled the sheet over us and put his hand on my waist.489Please respect copyright.PENANAfBmsMB5qMy
489Please respect copyright.PENANALcN7pZn50n
I became aware of a weight on my waist and a body lying behind me. I slightly rested on my elbow and took my mobile from the table; last night’s events came back to me. It was off.489Please respect copyright.PENANAJtTwpqZHdo
489Please respect copyright.PENANAM00Rs4Nr8Y
I rolled over to my stomach and turned on the mobile. Damien rolled over to his back, opening his eyes. He turned towards me.489Please respect copyright.PENANAWbLX6qucUE
489Please respect copyright.PENANAoQxtutzTrN
“Morning,” he mumbled.489Please respect copyright.PENANApfJTSYZySX
489Please respect copyright.PENANAgkrISnpGUt
“Mmm,” I murmured like saying the same word back. He knew I wasn’t keen on talking before coffee.489Please respect copyright.PENANAaAQOR2HC9Y
489Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6101NS6ZO
“So, I got you in my bed,” he smirked. I narrowed my eyes, annoyed by the blank screen on my mobile.489Please respect copyright.PENANAER0kzhvtfx
489Please respect copyright.PENANANMDXFas3JF
“Got me into your bed naked; then you can smirk,” I grinned. I talked.489Please respect copyright.PENANAzhkaBQdzb6
489Please respect copyright.PENANA5Cy9tiJJLn
“You’re not wearing any underwear now,” he reminded me. I blushed.489Please respect copyright.PENANAuW4VyQcgIP
489Please respect copyright.PENANAPaVnSdqsIw
“Shut up,” I said and got up; he laughed but stayed in bed.489Please respect copyright.PENANA3ycPJKD34I

I tiptoed to Cleo's room to grab my stuff but the room was empty. I changed and went downstairs thinking that they already woke up.489Please respect copyright.PENANAXWDunCG3wx
489Please respect copyright.PENANAwLZWu8p1xd
When I entered the kitchen, I found Max making coffee; Lexie sitting on the countertop beside him.489Please respect copyright.PENANArjpx8ZifvT
489Please respect copyright.PENANAhdoxWOP1ip
“Morning,” I said “I want coffee too; my fabulous best friend,” I smiled.489Please respect copyright.PENANA8DxrIbexMr
489Please respect copyright.PENANA2f0NxKD5Bh
“Good morning,” Lexie told me; blushing.489Please respect copyright.PENANAppEVkAyyQG
489Please respect copyright.PENANAoCQdG9EMpH
“Hey,” I waved smiling.489Please respect copyright.PENANAB03TRF9Fg3
489Please respect copyright.PENANABcuKgB1WJk
“Slept well?” Max raised his eyebrows.489Please respect copyright.PENANAf3jJ52H2yc
489Please respect copyright.PENANAVrEL7BZRRH
“I bet you slept better than me,” I grinned “No offence Lexie,” I smiled she nodded chuckling.489Please respect copyright.PENANApunI6evncD
489Please respect copyright.PENANAHZdpC1hB1M
“Of course I did,” he smirked kissing Lexie.489Please respect copyright.PENANA9StjaN3Ub4
489Please respect copyright.PENANA8R0ZT0u954
“Where’s Cleo and Mike?” I asked glancing at the rest of the empty house.489Please respect copyright.PENANA3th4qUYmTc
489Please respect copyright.PENANAByK3oUTj4y
“They left with Matt and Angie an hour ago for the beach.”489Please respect copyright.PENANAunaPMGaJgb
489Please respect copyright.PENANAirBKbSpVbW
I left them and headed outside to sit by the pool; as we did for the past three days. After Max got me my coffee he left with Lexie for the beach too. I offered to stay behind till Damien woke up.489Please respect copyright.PENANAI8ZmyOx6NZ
489Please respect copyright.PENANAQkE2ECfGMr
After I’ve drunk my coffee and put on sunscreen I started to get really bored. I decided that I would wait another ten minutes for Damien to wake up or I would wake him up myself. I put on my big sunglasses and my huge hat and sat there enjoying the sun.489Please respect copyright.PENANA4fwc9rfsWr
489Please respect copyright.PENANArJ8vXGnHsz
I haven’t talk to Alex for three whole days. Yesterday I didn’t even send him a message. I was starting to feel dangerously cold.489Please respect copyright.PENANAWBmeypqaNa
I was terribly hurt when the first day he didn’t make contact and I wanted to have fun so I turned my hurt into nothing; just felt numb.489Please respect copyright.PENANAmgS6wVj9EN
489Please respect copyright.PENANAYVKjRVBdT3
Saving me the trouble of going upstairs and also saving me from the thoughts that would end up ruining my day, Damien joined me. He sat beside me with his coffee, looking sleepy.489Please respect copyright.PENANATf5LQcuRcI
Not wanting to waste any more time, I took the sunscreen lotion and went behind him; putting it on his back. He looked at me over his shoulder, raising an eyebrow.489Please respect copyright.PENANA5brCKEJBEy
489Please respect copyright.PENANAfI6uS8VXmj
“Comment and I’ll rip your tongue out,” I threaten him pushing him a bit forward so I could reach his lower back, hearing him chuckle.489Please respect copyright.PENANAMG0cehovFm
489Please respect copyright.PENANA4NRR756NNV
When I was done with his back I sat back on my seat; thinking that he had to put on the lotion on the rest of his body himself since it was within his reach. He didn’t move though.489Please respect copyright.PENANA9wDdUSdeYV
489Please respect copyright.PENANAn510zUkHXS
“Are you going to stay like this?” I asked him.489Please respect copyright.PENANALBXW3mz258
489Please respect copyright.PENANAm7CIoaOa5M
“I'm still asleep Erica,” he mumbled. He called me by my name so I guess I could do the rest of his body without any of his comments and weird smirks of this morning.489Please respect copyright.PENANAJUZZz2wPxC
489Please respect copyright.PENANAnv58pQtg6H
I stood between his open legs and leaned forward; putting sunscreen on his arm first. He looked at me and took off my hat, putting it on his head; making me laugh.489Please respect copyright.PENANACe01oFPaa6
489Please respect copyright.PENANAtG8DjbNwbb
I tried hard to keep my face even as I brushed his lean chest. I thought of other random thinks to keep my hand from slowing down to enjoy the contact.489Please respect copyright.PENANATYPoenTzFZ
489Please respect copyright.PENANA4DTNARWcBk
“Please?” I smiled at him; holding the lotion in my hand and turning my back on him.489Please respect copyright.PENANAeRmcfmFtwa
He raised his eyes to meet mine and took the bottle without saying anything; even though he protested on doing it on himself. He straightened up his body so he could reach my back and rubbed my skin with the lotion.489Please respect copyright.PENANAS4soTGr97W
489Please respect copyright.PENANAeXxLv1Zeqd
- People say I've gone crazy cause I'm around you, that I'm not the same lady cause I'm around you, people say my eyes are hazy cause I'm around you, people say I'm acting shady when I'm around you …-489Please respect copyright.PENANAQxbjhEqrQe
489Please respect copyright.PENANAgPcLZWNmPn
“Oh,” I snorted recognizing the ringtone I had for Alex.489Please respect copyright.PENANAKEu7GcmEql
489Please respect copyright.PENANAbjUOlI8X46
“What’s that??” Damien exclaimed looking at me weird. I ignored him, mostly surprise because Alex was calling me and put the mobile on my ear, walking a few steps away from Damien.489Please respect copyright.PENANAyeANxFS5zM
489Please respect copyright.PENANAwDK66IhDSl
“Hello,” I said like talking to a friend.489Please respect copyright.PENANAwnuAj9DfFz
489Please respect copyright.PENANAPYO5KBDkiS
“Good morning love,” I heard him smiling “How are you?”489Please respect copyright.PENANAHNuNGaZgFS
489Please respect copyright.PENANAbGN20veqcI
“Fabulous,” I smiled “I'm heading to the beach with Damien,” and with the corner of my eye I saw Damien look up from his coffee, wondering to whom I was talking to. I was burning inside; wanting to ask him what he was doing, but I would stand my ground.489Please respect copyright.PENANAITL42cvvy9
489Please respect copyright.PENANAzfaXp1DK9b
“Sorry I haven’t been replying to your messages”, he said, making me wincing. -Oh, he remembered to apologize! How nice- I scoffed to myself.489Please respect copyright.PENANAkL4y7j9cxM
489Please respect copyright.PENANAuHn0YgWbjW
“No worries,” I smiled “I lived without them,” my voice turned cold.489Please respect copyright.PENANA5BgXphpRGI
489Please respect copyright.PENANAz7vJi2MoT9
“Don’t be cruel love.”489Please respect copyright.PENANAiic8b5EGDH
489Please respect copyright.PENANAVFCHGVeo6w
“I'm learning from the best as it seems,” I replied, my voice still the same.489Please respect copyright.PENANAVgCMcm5GUr
489Please respect copyright.PENANAscqDAYsJlQ
“You right,” he sighed “I'm sorry. I had so much work to do that I got carried away.”489Please respect copyright.PENANAbwHodkk2wM
489Please respect copyright.PENANASsYajdSku4
“Accepted,” I said, my voice still uneven “I have to go, because I feel a bit angry right now and don’t want to ruin this amazing day,” a cruel and fake smile in my voice.489Please respect copyright.PENANAGxDxWe2Pv4
489Please respect copyright.PENANAGeJdZC6H89
“As you wish,” he said, irritating me even more.489Please respect copyright.PENANAu4GusVqp87
489Please respect copyright.PENANAJF47RqbAMx
“Have a wonderful day love,” I smiled, this time it sounded truthful.489Please respect copyright.PENANAyyKcEJgxMf
489Please respect copyright.PENANA2GhLKw7lFm
“You too.” I could hear the smile on his voice. I have no idea where this would leave us. Me turning ice cold against him and him being..well..him.489Please respect copyright.PENANAKnJKH55VXZ
489Please respect copyright.PENANACkM7Yk9FCV
I tossed my mobile on the table; Damien looking at me. I took off my hat and my sunglasses throwing them on my chair.489Please respect copyright.PENANARfoRlvSpgh
489Please respect copyright.PENANATXzCja10iq
“I'm going for a swim. Need to calm down,” I mumbled getting into the pool. I used to swim as an athlete when I was younger and it was working like music does now; only a lot of quicker.489Please respect copyright.PENANAfRQtA83qyF
489Please respect copyright.PENANAnlLwWchVgo
I swam back and forth four times before I came into a stop; trying to catch my breath. Damien got into the swimming pool and walked towards me.489Please respect copyright.PENANAxYTMRVfDgN
489Please respect copyright.PENANAQgLwDfonL5
“Calm?” he asked.489Please respect copyright.PENANAcAsNM6AMiF
489Please respect copyright.PENANAuXtnJO86fq
“A bit,” I mumbled.489Please respect copyright.PENANAknUuRF9jhc
489Please respect copyright.PENANAFlHYzOp5Tq
“Didn’t know you have a boyfriend,” he said.489Please respect copyright.PENANA2HIH1qg8NQ
489Please respect copyright.PENANAxjQHL20kB2
“Not for long as it seems.”489Please respect copyright.PENANAUHpRVd3mva
489Please respect copyright.PENANAXNCGBewUQO
“You’re young,” he said “Lots and lots of men are waiting,” he smiled trying to cheer me up.489Please respect copyright.PENANA3LzsGETrXg
489Please respect copyright.PENANAeeob8pI3EC
“I'm young, not a whore,” I chuckled, throwing water at him. I had to cheer up. He pulled me closer holding my wrists. I tried to bit his arm to free myself; but he moved backwards trying to avoid me. He walked backwards again with a bit more force than necessary and he collided with the wall, me against him, as he was still holding my wrists between our bodies.489Please respect copyright.PENANAG59WMesSLp
489Please respect copyright.PENANARicIiboXxl
He was looking at me smiling; his gray eyes looking amazingly beautiful. I bit my bottom lip from awkwardness while smiling. His smile faded away a little bit before he put his right hand on the side of my neck and the other cupped my cheek. I froze.489Please respect copyright.PENANAOGi3S8uSXa
489Please respect copyright.PENANAoGp4gc2fuv
My heart bouncing inside my chest; my lips parted trying to catch my breath. My mouth watered and butterflies attacked my stomach. He pulled my face closer and touched his lips to mine. I don’t think I’ll ever forget the way his lips felt against mine. His taste smothered by the chlorine; my stomach turning upside down, butterflies still attacking my body.489Please respect copyright.PENANAX4CG4ckV44
489Please respect copyright.PENANAa5p7Jvv05D
My breath came out from my parted lips in a gasp mixed with a deep moan. I was going to die. My world stopped. My heart skipped a beat. I’ve wanted this for so many years that felt surreal.489Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2BK6X3af4
489Please respect copyright.PENANAdvQKBmNcjN
He kept his hands on either side of my face; his tongue entering my mouth. I kissed him back; living through all the times I wished for this to happen. I raised my hands to put them around his neck and suddenly Alex came back into my mind and I pulled away abruptly. I didn’t want Alex to do this to me; I couldn’t do this to him.489Please respect copyright.PENANAW9mU44PaYB
489Please respect copyright.PENANA7sfY5IHnzl
Damien looked at me; lips swollen from the kiss, his breath sharp. I was only a few inches away from his face. He stared at me for another moment before he spoke.489Please respect copyright.PENANA3a3AyMbsRE
489Please respect copyright.PENANAahHkLaAMkz
“I'm sorry,” he mumbled. I sighed and lowered my head.489Please respect copyright.PENANAgNNG3kwE2c
489Please respect copyright.PENANAcjTnd5Ed55
“Don’t be,” I whispered as I stared at the scanty hair on his chest. “If this happened on another time; it would be even more beautiful,” I said looking back into his liquid gray eyes looking back at me.489Please respect copyright.PENANAKq0nUD1YJZ
489Please respect copyright.PENANA9qhayQcrnt
I walked back, biting my bottom lip suddenly wishing that he had kissed me outside the swimming pool so I could keep his taste. I shook my head and got out of the pool and walked to the shower.489Please respect copyright.PENANAFtYLiYxehD
489Please respect copyright.PENANAi7XH0ZV6KC
“Take a shower too,” I called “The guys are waiting for us,” I swallowed turning my back on him, letting the water wash the chlorine from my body.489Please respect copyright.PENANAeOJU9iiieL
489Please respect copyright.PENANA46dwUEQpw0
The timing couldn’t be more perfect; or worst. I was hurt by Alex and Damien made it all better, made it all go away. Yes, I felt bad for kissing Damien back but at the moment I wasn’t thinking anything; my mind went blank.489Please respect copyright.PENANATJfzWbGZHM
489Please respect copyright.PENANAmI0gNuTECZ
I didn’t understand what brought this on; what made him kiss me after all this time. I’ve put myself through hell in order to get over him, never showing anything to my best friends afraid of what they might think. So why now? Now that I had to fight to keep Alex.489Please respect copyright.PENANALmmEAGBe3O
489Please respect copyright.PENANAJqw5r2bXYE
This won’t happen again. I won’t let it. I have to prove to myself that am strong enough to resist him; that I haven’t deceived myself into thinking I got over him; that I really did move on.489Please respect copyright.PENANAV37zeGT6Nq
489Please respect copyright.PENANAINgRPf1U1p
I moved on.489Please respect copyright.PENANAAKZmF4NcC6
