5. Different

Adam Stalin

I parked my car in my garage and went to Chloe's side. She was still asleep so I picked her up in my arms once again and walked in my house. I climbed the stairs and somehow opened the door to my room. I carefully placed her on my bed and observed her.

No woman has ever been on my bed before and here's Chloe, sleeping soundlessly on it. I tucked a few strands of her blond hair behind her ear and looked at her as if memorising her features. An involuntary smiled formed on my lips.

I got up from my bed and walked into the bathroom. I took a hot shower and changed into a pair of sweatpants and a t-shirt. I walked outside and saw Chloe standing before the large window, gazing in the night sky.

She was rubbing her arms as if she's feeling cold. I took my blazer from earlier and walked towards her. I wrapped the blazer around her arms and she turned around startled. She was looking so serene with the moonlight hitting her face giving her flawless face a radiant look.

"What're you doing?" She asked, her voice a little hoarse. She was still under the influence of alcohol a bit.

"I though you were feeling cold..."

"You covered my body." She said and I nodded with furrowed brows.

She immediately threw her arms around my neck and pulled me in a tight hug. I heard her let out a sob and I instantly wrapped my arms around her waist, bringing her closer to my chest. She hid her face in my chest and cried silently. I stroked her soft hair, whispering sweet nothings in her ear.

After a moment, she pulled herself together and pulled back from the hug. I cupped her face and wiped the stray tears off it. She licked her dry lips in an attempt to dampen them and my eyes travelled to them. They look so soft and kissable. I wanna bite them so hard that they bleed.

She choked on her sobs a bit and I made her sit on my bed.

"I'll get some water for you." I said and quickly went to the kitchen returning with a glass of cold water.

I checked my phone on my way upstairs and the information Greg got me, made me stop in my tracks. She's already engaged to a banker named Joseph. I felt a little something tug at my heart when I read the piece of information.

She's already engaged?

My heart ached every time I said that to myself. One girl that I find different from others and she's engaged. For the first time in my life I've liked someone in the first meeting. For the first time it happened that I want to get to know a girl instead of just fucking her and never call her back. For the first time I've wished for a woman and not just for her body.

I closed my eyes and drew in a deep breath.

I have to accept the fact that she's engaged. I have to make my peace with not having her. I have to let her go for her sake. I have to believe that there's a man lucky enough to call himself her fiancé. I shook my thoughts off and continued going upstairs.

When I entered my room, I saw her sitting on bed and starring outside the window once again. She looked so lost in her thoughts. I cleared my throat a bit to grab her attention. I handed her the glass and she quickly gulped it down. Her eyes were starting to get heavy with sleep.

"Thank you." She said.

"What for?"

"For being different. Every man I've ever know has always tried getting me to loose a layer of my clothing instead of giving me one." She said and my heart ached once again. How can someone wanna treat her like that?

"You're a woman not an object, Chloe. I'm sorry if someone before treated you like a toy but I assure you, you're worth much more." I said keeping a hand on hers.

She cupped my face and came dangerously close to me. She kept her legs on either side of me, straddling me.

"What're you doing?" I asked a little breathless.

"Shh..." She kept her fingers against mine for a moment before withdrawing her hand.

She looked into my eyes for a second before crashing her lips onto mine. I lost all my control and pulled her closer in the kiss. She tangled her fingers in my hairs and kissed me furiously. I plunged my tongue in her mouth and she let out a loud moan. She started moving forward and backwards on my lap and I gripped her hips, stopping her.

Adam, she's engaged!

I reminded myself and broke the kiss. She wrapped her arms around my neck and hugged me once again. Shortly, she fell asleep and I sighed knowing this was the first and last time I would ever kiss her.
