Chapter 10 - Sincere
“You know Alex, it’s ok to talk out your emotions with someone else,” Pinky timidly said while watching me with wary eyes. “I think it’s a much better idea than wrecking your room while sobbing uncontrollably!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTu7BjkXxSf
I screamed at her as I smashed my porcelain lamp on the floor; shattering it into tiny pieces. Now it’s just like me, broken on the inside and out!961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdOd9PNJVu
I liked Crimson Cross, I genuinely fucking liked him! And now, I found out that he not only let that whore suck him off, he fucked her! Probably more than once too! Then he wants to come crawling into my room in the middle of the night and sweet talk me! And I bet he only did it because he wanted to sleep with me.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzq4SluTGD
I went to smash my other lamp to the ground when I felt Pinky wrap her arms around me tightly. “Go on, let it all out on my shoulder. But please don’t smash anything else, I don’t want you to hurt yourself.”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsF9QT5kpbv
“LET GO OF ME!” I struggled in her grasp but she only held on tighter. “I’M SERIOUS PINKY, YOU BETTER LET GO OR ELSE-”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nAwDqp5nO
“It’s ok to not be ok Alex,” She whispered in my ear. “And it’s ok to receive help from others. You need to let it out, just cry. I’m here for you.”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvL9AtQmor
My eyes watered even more as I slowly wrapped my arms around her waist. I sobbed loudly as I held on tightly to her. “I liked him Pinky, I liked him a lot! He made me feel special like no one else has before. You warned me that he was a player but I naively thought that I was the only one that he was interested in.”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttcGnCoXKQ
“It’s going to be ok,” She rubbed my back gently. “ But it is true, you were naive.”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfSiwvBEPt
“You’re not making me feel better about myself!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM194CWJQiy
“He seemed to truly have feelings for you though,” She said.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvJqqXC1oM
I lifted my head to stare at her in confusion. “The way he looked at you, it was just wow!” She said breathlessly. “I can’t even describe it. There was always playfulness in his eyes but then their would be the adoration when he’s watching you do something. Like sleeping in class for example, did you know he watched you sleep for an entire math class!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2y1sMUkgj
“Really?” I asked softly with a bit a hope in my tone.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NY4LAOhQf
“Really,” She grinned.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ADtiJysbZ
A slight smile made it’s way on my face, but it soon diminished quickly when I remembered that he still had slept with Raven, even though Pinky claims that he has “feelings” for me. “Is this a mild form of heartbreak?”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pbiaCYw64
She laughed. “Their is no “mild form” of heartbreak Alex, all hurt the same.”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmc31jqA37
“But we weren’t even in a relationship?” I said wiping my tears. “Don’t you have to be in a relationship with someone before they can break your heart.”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqtVw2gP1D
Her face suddenly became dull and her previously shining eyes became dull. “That’s not true.” She whispered solemnly. “Haven’t you ever heard of unrequited love?”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJM1iFIXfmZ
My heart tugged at the way she said those words. They sounded so sorrowful and remorseful that I’d forgotten for a second which one of us was truly suffering from a broken heart. “Pinky? Are you ok?”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNCZeACJhl
At the sound of my voice, she brightened back up and smiled at me; though, I could tell that it was fake. “Yeah, sorry about that, just zoned out for a moment.”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmxqoqfn52
“Are you sur-”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgDqApC906
“You should get some rest Alex,” She cut me off. “It’s been a long night for you.”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXRZ2LZsvy
“But I-”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWijX7GGzf
“Sleep!” She grasp my shoulders tightly while looking into my eyes. “Don’t worry about me, I’m fine! School is tomorrow remember,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xKxKuP4Jk
“Who gives a crap about school!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuGx2rfRed
“I do!” She retorted while carefully walking over the glass on the floor to my bed. “And you should too!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8HeCZierK
“You’re such a goody-goody,” I rolled my eyes at her. “You’re nearly as bad as Grace.”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgpBPBefoc
“Firstly, I’m not a “goody-goody”,” She discarded her heels, dress and jewelry before plopping down on the bed. “Secondly, I nowhere as bad as your sister. She’s the ultimate perfectionist!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLMVeWxp3V
“I think that title got stripped from her tonight!” I laughed as I joined her on the bed. “Did you see her come in late? Oh gosh, that was a golden moment!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmzFasny2y
She laughed as we continued to talk about random yet funny things. Is that what friends do at sleepovers? I’m actually enjoying myself, we need to have more of these! Pinky had managed to make me forget about Crimson for the time being and I was very grateful for her company. Who knows what I would’ve done if she wasn’t here?961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wbRSNK9gI
“You think Mr. Daniels is married?” I said aloud. But when I got no response, I looked over at Pinky to see that she was fast asleep. I softly smiled to myself as I pulled the covers over her body some more.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcptFOste1
“Thanks for being my first friend,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjn3VI8pngb
...961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ag20XKHDO
The soft creaking of my bedroom door made my blue eyes shoot open. I quickly glanced to see if it was Pinky who had gotten up but she was fast asleep; snoring
slightly as half of her body hung off the bed. Slowly, I craned my head around to see the silhouette of a masculine figure. This all seems very nostalgic. 961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYlC7zTWEL
“WHAT HAPPENED IN HERE!” The voice shouted as the lights flashed on.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvwqeHK2zj
I jumped up in fright and blinked as my eyes took in the intruder. Crimson. He was staring around at everything in shock before locking eyes with me. My heart clenched and I felt all the rage from earlier on come rushing back like a stampede of angry bulls!961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwToMViLlJ
“ALEX!” He shouted again. “WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED? DID SOMEONE BREAK IN AND TRASH YOUR ROOM?”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9AsE1cgJp
“Shut up!” I whispered-shouted as I threw a pillow at him. “Pinky’s sleeping!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq26SQIfGn0
I looked over to her form to see if she had been awakened. But she was in the exact same spot and still snoring. Damn she’s a heavy sleeper.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHNC9RF2Xk
“Wha-” He started confusingly but I cut him off by rushing over and pushing him out of the door. But I’d forgotten that their was broken glass scattered on the floor and I sliced the bottom of my foot.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYquFKqkZn
“FUCK!” I screamed in pain as I cradled my foot. Crimson immediately tried to come to my aid but I pushed him back.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sDuJkcgAr
“Stay away from me!” I seethed as I turned off the lights and shut the door to my room. The infirmary for this wing was on the first floor and it’ll take forever for me to get there with a bleeding foot; but I continued hopping my way to the end of the corridor before I fell flat on my face.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4G9J54oCCD
“I don’t know what I did to upset you Curly but,” He started before stripping of his jacket and putting it over my body. “But I’m not going to let you prance around the place half-naked while blood is gushing from your foot!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbErDCIECWs
Half-naked? I looked down and realized that I was only in my white lacy underwear! Pinky and I had stripped from our clothes and jewelry but we slept in our underwear because we were to lazy to change! Oh gosh, Crimson just saw me in my underwear! My face turned dark red as I pulled his jacket tightly around me. I may be mad at him, but that doesn’t mean I won’t accept his jacket.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucaAbT1EUP
“Don’t worry, I was looking at your face the entire time...well...most of the time!” He said sheepishly, rubbing the back of his neck.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVq9cfVrNWy
“Get away from me,” I glared at him as I tried to get up but it was futile, I couldn’t walk at all on my injured foot.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEOoY2Xj6K
“You’re in no position to be telling me to get away from you,” He said as he effortlessly lifted me into his arms. “I’ll take you to the infirmary.”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkRPvzJyuN
“NO LET ME DOWN!” I screamed as I wiggled in his grasp. “I HATE YOU! LET ME DOWN!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4rzKE9RII
“What the hell did I do?” He asked wide-eyed as he stared down at me. “You slapped me for no reason at the dinner and now you’re saying you hate me? I thought we were past this stage in our relationship,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlycSgOv8G
“Relationship,” I scoffed. “We never had a relationship Crimson! You mean absolutely nothing to me!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0z7C918PRL
“How can you say that?” He asked shocked.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIAQOaUYer
“Oh don’t play innocent you fucker!” I spat. “You were only being all nice and flirty with me because you wanted to sleep with me!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9oQ4yGrc9
“WHAT!” He shouted as he stared at me in confusion. “That was not the reason why I acted that way towards you! Have you ever thought that maybe I actually like you? That I wanted to develop a relationship with you?”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OTUPzFpBD
It was my turn to be shocked. He liked me? He wanted to be in a relationship with me? Pinky was right. But that still doesn’t change the fact that he fucked Raven.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXUoJLuipn
“Did you and Raven have sex?” I asked sourly as I took in his facial expression. His eyes widened even more and he gulped before averting his eyes away from mine.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IWk7oqJab
“You did, didn’t you?” My voice cracked as I felt the tears form in my eyes. Their was a tiny part of me that held onto the fact that Raven could’ve possibly been lying and that Crimson would confirm it for me. But the guilty expression on his face gave me all the clarity I needed.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGaznvAujI
He sighed before looking deeply into my eyes. “Yes, we did,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHcDNQ7d5w
Those three words made my heart drop and the tears rushed out of my eyes. The pain in my foot was long gone, instead replaced by the pain of heartbreak. I wouldn’t deny it any longer. Crimson Cross did mean something to me, something more than a friend.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ab2ZKiEZg
“I liked you Crimson,” I said softly as I sniffled. “How could you sleep with Raven while you flirting and spending time with me almost every single day?”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHxgkWno3S
“It was before I met you!” He exclaimed. “It was the first day of school and she literally came up to me and started flirting. Then ten minutes before the opening ceremony, she pulled me into a closet and began sucking me off but I swear I didn’t ask her o! That got me horny and so was she so yes, I did fuck her in the janitor’s closet. But I didn’t even know her name or who she was! The moment I found out that she was a countess, I didn’t get anywhere near her again!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4q2Mafsf3
I stared at him, feeling slightly relieved to know that he hadn’t done it will being involved with me. But I was still upset about it.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9P70ornhLH
“I swear Alex, I haven’t been involved with any other girl since I met you,” He said rubbing my shoulder. “Even that month when I didn’t talk to you. It was because I was trying to forget about you, no girl has ever affected me like you have.”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sZNgiVmcr
I sniffled as I grabbed onto his shirt. “But I was a total bitch towards you. How could you have found me attractive?”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EnIPSjnLh
“That mean, bitchy personality facade that you let the world see isn’t you,” He said tightening his hold on me. “You’re one of the kindest people I’ve ever met. You just display it in a weird way. Do you remember about two weeks, the girl who stutters in our English class, Sandy I think, she was being bullied by other girls in our class and you were the only one who stood up to defend her. I mean, you did curse her out and call her a wimp, but it made her a tougher person. When people tease her about her stuttering, she doesn’t just let it slide anymore, she defends herself!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStezmMwAeD
I was shocked. I didn’t know that he payed such close attention to me. “But I-”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6ReIOImw1
“And that freshman who was about to get beat up because he danced ballet. You stood up to three guys who were twice your size and nearly made them piss their pants!” He laughed.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeQAAXVNJN
“What does any of that have to do with why you find me attractive?” I mumbled into his chest.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIX1a3cNR4Q
“You fight for others who can’t fight for themselves, even people you claim to hate,” He said as he leaned closer to me. “And you do it in your own unique way. That’s why I find you attractive,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqMVWB6UHT
“I-Is that all?” I stuttered as he brushed his nose against my cheek.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylksrSxnHk
“Oh no Curly!” He smirked as he lifted me even higher in his arms. Am I not heavy or does he just have super human strength? “Your static blue eyes that look so alluring, especially when you’re smiling. Your gorgeous, long, curly hair that flows so beautifully down your back. Your sexy curves that lead downward to the most perfect shaped ass I’ve ever seen! Not to mention you’ve got a great set of tits-”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHV9Xa0jAj
“Seriously?” I interrupted him with a raised eyebrow. “You were doing such a great job of being romantic and you had to ruin it by being a guy!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckvOOWcbM0
“I’m sorry but you do!” He laughed. “They’re so perfectly rounded and they jiggle when you walk sometimes,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xbXcf3COK
“Oh gosh Crimson stop!” I giggled as I put my hands over my eyes. “Return to your romantic mode,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrewZnXb4v8
He chuckled before clearing his throat and speaking. “Your plump full lips that I desperately want to kiss right now,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0r3XMh0ZW
My chuckling ceased and I looked at him in shock. “W-Wh-What?”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwR3tPZfCD
He suddenly crashed his lips down onto mine and my eyes widened in surprise. My first kiss! What do I do? Do I move my lips?961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡui4wESVVHE
“Move your lips baby,” He mumbled as if reading my mind. Slowly, I moved my lips in sync with his and I was fascinated with how perfect this felt. I feel like I’m in a dream! Kissing Crimson has me feeling light-headed as if I was high off of his kiss. But unfortunately, we had to break away air.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRjLdwbo4N
“Wow,” We both said breathlessly as we stared into each others eyes. Not able to resist, I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled his lips towards mine for another kiss. He tightened his hold on me and I tugged slightly at his hair.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEPyRqW6Fb
He bit my bottom lip which made me open my mouth in surprise, and he used that opportunity to shove his tongue in my mouth, easily winning dominance. Oh gosh, I felt like I was about to faint!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiAkFTc4uE
“Crimson?” I moaned against his lips.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vzlMCK2LG
“Yes baby?”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FNegAuYpP
“My foot’s still bleeding,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemhENokJfu
He chuckled as he broke away from the kiss. “Way to ruin the mood,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOKvZMMDWs
“Well I’m sorry!” I said sarcastically as I rolled my eyes. “Not like I’m bleeding or anything!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnbcFzpkbA
“I’m just kidding babe,” He said before he began walking. “Let’s get you to the infirmary.”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUWq0mZWPN
...961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReFTlakeIx
“So you went into the cadets when you were twelve?” I asked Crimson as he wrapped my foot with a bandage. He’d offered to attend to my wound, letting the nurse who was here return to her slumber.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXtoEfIZ0U
“Yeah,” He said cutting the bandage. “I was a but of a rebel and very hot-tempered. I got kicked out of school for beating up a guy who was picking on my little brother. My mom got tired of me always being in trouble, so she sent me to the cadets.”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnDFqucL5f
“What was it like?” I asked genuinely curious.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT25lQfQHbN
“It was rough the first few months,” He said as he taped the bandage in place. “I was younger than most of the other kids so I was smaller. The training was harsh and intense. Getting up at five every morning and going to bed as late as four a.m sometimes! But I learned discipline and self-control. I’m not as impulsive as I used to be, but I could still knock someone out if needed.”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrTKtCPoa7
“Yeah, I realized,” I chuckled to myself as I remembered him nearly knocking me out at the dinner when I scared him. “But wait, if you were in the cadets, how did you go to the same school as Pinky?”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1VIIRDXtT
“I was only at Edensville High for one year,” He said. “I studied hard so that I could be able to get a scholarship to RHA, and I did! I figured that if I came to the capital, I would have a better chance of recruitment for the Royal Army. It’s rare for them to accept people from Edensville because we weren’t known to produce strong soldiers.”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQTrzul0rr
“So you want to be a soldier!” I said with raised brows. “Why?”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHofpQt9pB
“With me being in the cadets, I’m already used to the lifestyle so it would be easy to adjust,” He shrugged. “And besides, the pay is fantastic! I would be able to take my mom out of all her debts,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9lbwKcgNJ
“Your family has debts?” I repeated a bit intrigued by it. It was the first time I’d heard someone talk about financial complications.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1OTVwlMjV
“Don’t most families have some sort?” He looked at me with a raised eyebrow.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthjlDfXNUm
“I don’t think you can really classify my family with the rest,” I chuckled slightly as I separated my curls.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zIAjaEajl
“Ah yes,” He said turning towards me. “I forgot about you being apart of the royal family for a second,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHrIMFd9Zn
“Yeah,” I mumbled as I averted my eyes away from him. We weren’t a family, we all practically hated each other.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwv5pPGS9C
“What about your job as my Royal Guard?” I asked. “Are you earning enough to help with your mom’s debts?”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoZRUryuSs
“I suppose so but,” He sighed. “It’s going to take at least a year for me to save up enough,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXG1P8i3A1
My eyes widened. Just how deep in debt was his mother? “What if I raised your pay? Then you can-”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMnJR2aYwX
“No,” He cut me off. “I don’t want to do that?”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nEV7IJ45U
“Why not?” I tugged on his arm. “I would double your earning, maybe even triple them and then you would be able to help your mother get out of debt!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAFIToV0rw
“That wouldn’t be right,” He said standing in between my legs and grabbing my chin with his hand. “Their are five other royal guards who do the exact same job as me, it wouldn’t be fair to raise my pay and theirs stay the same,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuLf39yNBy
“Then I raise everyone’s pay!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6U7mmAXD8M
“It’s not that simple Curly,” He played with my hair. “The only person’s pay you can raise in mine because you’re my boss. You’re not in charge of the others,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2fjrR6v4X
“Then just let me raise the pay!” I rolled my eyes, “Stop being such a diva about it,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCApUORiTOD
“I’m not being a diva,” He narrowed his eyes at me. “I’m being a decent human being,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3plrODWz3N
I scoffed. “So what are you trying to say? That I’m not a decent person?”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8uVdt4KWu
He suddenly grabbed my face and kissed my lips softly for a few seconds before resting his forehead against mine. “Let’s not fight, yeah?”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyf2uNEbVB
“Ye-Yeah,” I stammered as I flushed red. I can’t believe I gave in so quickly.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mBD0QiXY6
“Good,” He smirked before kissing me again, this time more rough.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcf2d4zlda
He gripped my waist in his large hands as he french kissed me. My hands were all over his hair, pulling and tugging every time he bit my lip. His hands suddenly wandered to my knees, pushing my legs wider apart so that he could come closer. I wrapped my legs around his waist as I felt him begin to kiss my neck, gently nipping at the skin.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvRFxf5VkM
“Crimson, oh gosh,” I moaned as I pulled on his hair even tighter. 961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiBwNgK4L7
“Quiet baby,” He murmured while kissing my shoulders. “The nurse is still out there remember? We don’t want to get caught do we?”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xmsiviJGz
That set off warning bells in my head and the lust I was feeling slowly vanished. If Crimson and I were caught doing this, he would be instantly fired and then he won’t be able to help his mother get out of debt!961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2vNKvVsUZ
“Crimson,” I said trying to push him back. “We have to stop,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4buk6ZrdVQ
He immediately stopped kissing my neck and looked up at me in confusion. His face was flushed, his hair was messy from my hands running through it and his lips were slightly swollen from our heated kissing session. Fuck he looks hot!961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eESFASL5x
“What’s wrong?” He asked caressing my face.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunyOG4zVIi
“What if we get caught?” I said. “I don’t want you to get fired!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpcqqc3pZF
“I’m not going to be, Curly!” He tried to reassure me.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zTY8j7EiF
“You don’t know that,” I narrowed my eyes.961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNUCYtzxu0
“Look, I’ll be careful alright,” He pushed his hair back. “I’ll always be extra careful when it’s concerning you,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WkPLnO6mV
That made me blush a bit and feel fuzzy on the inside. Fuck, it feels like a 1990s washing machine is in my belly!961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGV8ETGy08
“What even are we Crimson?” I referred to the two of us. “I don’t think we’re exactly ‘friends’ anymore.”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIiWcECxvA
He bit his lip and stared intensely at me. “What do you want us to be?”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObLPxQ8oB1
I took a deep breath and placed my hand on his cheek before speaking. “I want things to continue to be the way they were before,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhTqyeWEHG
He raised an eyebrow at me. “Not quite the answer I was expecting, but it’s better than nothing. May I ask why?”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRCqWBEOaV
“It’s just,” I sighed as I played with my hair. “I don’t want to label us as anything. I don’t want it to be I’m your girlfriend and you’re my boyfriend. I want it to be your mine and I’m yours.”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvHw6B0gfD
“So...you want to marry me? Is this a proposal?” He joked. “Wait let me take a selfie!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAABRmKsztf
“No you idiot,” I laughed. “I just don’t want whole label thing. I hope you’re ok with that,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBVCn3ii8D
He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me in for bear hug. “I’m more than ok with it babe, no girlfriend and boyfriend, you’re mine and I’m yours!”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtR3CsOEjCF
“This has to be in secret though,” I frowned. “So no public display of affection. Especially at school, people are always watching.”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56uS0m8575
He leaned his forehead against mine and smirk. “It’ll be our little secret,”961Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEF7SinVysm
