Sweet Chris

2020-09-11 13:53:31I loved Clyde.
However sweet Chris turned out to be, my heart still belonged to Clyde. The next morning I woke up to a lovely text from Chris asking how I'd slept. That was such a lovely gesture to me considering the fact that almost no one ever did it to me. Not even Clyde.
I chatted with Chris for a while before wishing him a good day. Ever since I broke up with Jim, I'd not received a good morning text. It was pitiful, I know. Sometimes I wondered if Clyde really cared about me. I mean he had my number but it seemed as good as useless to him. Despite his failings, he still held my heart in his hands. He'd stolen it without trying.
I was watching the television when the door opened and Keri walked in with her new boyfriend. She introduced him to me and went upstairs to freshen up as they had been hiking all day. As per house rules, she couldn't be alone with a boy upstairs when Mom and Dad were not around. Clyde would go up later.
It was awkward as I tried to focus on the television and ignore the attractive boy tapping away into his phone. After sometime, Clyde spoke to me.
"Are you okay, Shannon." He looked at me. "You seem quite tense. This is your home and I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable. I can leave if you'd like."
I was fourteen, with no experience with boys especially those as hot as Keri's boyfriend.
"I'm okay," I said, taking my eyes back to the television. When Keri took too long to leave the room, I excused myself and went to the kitchen. When I realized there was nothing to do in the kitchen, I cursed myself for being so stupid. I should have just gone to my bedroom instead. I drank some water and went back to the living room where I pretended he didn't exist.
Clyde acted like Chris was a total asshole but I thought it was the opposite. Chris was really cool.
After getting ready, I set off to campus leaving Kelsey still in la la land. Dissent in Modern and Contemporary Russia seminar was the first thing I had to attend to. I met Jazz, the only friend I had doing the same course with me. She briefed me on what I'd missed during the last class I'd skipped while we took the stairs up.
During the lunch break, I met up with my Nina and Ruby as planned near Notre Dame's main Library.
"Babe, how do you do it?" Ruby asked.
"What?" I narrowed my eyes.
"You had a hot guy with you during lunch yesterday and Chris was seriously hunting for you at the party. Had you seen him before or was it love at first sight?"
Chris falling in love with me? That was ridiculous. He thought I was dating Clyde so there was no way on earth that could ever happen.
"Very funny," I laughed. "Chris isn't in love with me."
"So what was it all about?" Nina questioned.
"He wanted to kill me," I stated.
"More like he wanted to bang you to death, huh?" Ruby winked.
"Ew no, I'm serious. I slapped him so he wanted to get back at me. I was hiding."
Their eyes widened and they brought their heads closer to mine.
"Did he do anything to you after we left?"
I shook my head. "No"
"Why would you slap such a hot dude, you lucky bitch? You keep a lot of things from us."
"He said something I didn't like."
"I don't know what it was but I wouldn't slap such a sexy guy at any one time. Never!"
"What exactly did he say?" Nina prodded.
I couldn't tell them. They didn't have to know about Clyde. I felt bad keeping things from my best friends but what options did I have? It wasn't very easy to start revealing how you were in love with your sister's ex to friends who could say it out anytime.
"Hey!" Someone called out from behind saving me from lying to my friends. Keeping secrets was better than telling lies. All of the two options had the ability to haunt one, though.
The beaming smiles on my friends faces made me turn only to see Chris walking towards us. Talk about the devil...
"Hey girls," he said with his perfect smile. "Can I borrow this angel for a minute?"
I hated it when strangers used terms of endearment while referring to me but for some reason I felt quite happy when Chris called me Angel.
He grabbed my hand gently and led me away from my friends. I glanced back to see them smiling, probably happy for me. They'd helped me a lot to get over the break up with Jim. I knew they were happy when I was.
"Wasn't expecting to see you," I started.
"You look so beautiful today," he complimented. "I missed you"
Was I going to reveal that I kinda missed him too? Hell no! I racked my brain for something to say but it chose that moment to stop working. His smile was breathtaking. Those lips! Perfect teeth, eyes, perfect everything. I could stare at him all day.
He was so attractive that I assumed someone had paid him to talk to me. When did perfect guys who were not my friends start talking to me? Jim had nothing on him. If Chris was honestly interested in me then I'd wasted two years of my life being with a guy who didn't even deserve me. Thank God he was gone.
"How is your day?" I inquired
"It was terrible till I saw you."
Okay, Chris was the kind of guy who would win in a flirting contest. I'd give him that.
"I'm glad-" I didn't finish my lame sentence because as I was talking, my eyes met Luke's. Clyde's friend! He was looking out of a window on the second floor of Hesburgh Library.
I was busted!

On Friday night I received a call from Kim inviting to their family picnic. Although I was not very close to Clyde's family, I always tagged along because of Kim's consistent invitations. We used to be like peas in a pod when Clyde and Keri were dating. In most of their family picnics, two members outside the family were supposed to be invited as a rule. To make the occasion more lively, Clyde and Kim had to invite a close friend of theirs to join. I admired that family tradition of theirs.Kim always chose me because she said I was her best friend though she wasn't my best. We were super close though not in the way I was close to friends I wasn't related to. Clyde always came with Louis or his other friends. Before my first kiss with Clyde I'd always loved the picnics because it gave me a chance to hang out with the guy I was crushing on.This time I wasn't thrilled at all. I had not been with his family since we kissed and I knew awkwardness was g

After exiting the room, I immediately dialled Chris's number."Hello," I said."Hey Shannon. Are you okay? You don't sound well."I wiped my face with my palm. "I'm not okay.""What's it, baby? What has happened?""Can we meet?""I'm going to the campus right now," I said. "Can we meet at Somi's cafe?"I got there before he did. He walked in when I was sipping my iced tea. We spent a lot of time talking about normal student issues for semester tests were starting in a week and the atmosphere was changing. Most students were becoming serious and during the night, there were few people in clubs and bars around Campus."Why are you so nice to me?" I asked Chris as I gulped the last of my iced tea. Chris couldn't even finish a cup of iced tea because he preferred coffee. It was the third I'd drank since I entered the cafe."Because you

I found myself outside Clyde's apartment two days later. I'm not entirely sure what took me there. Either it was my undying love for him or guilt. I took a deep breath and knocked.Louis opened the door and shot me a death glare, "What do you want, Shannon?""Hello to you too, Louis." I smiled. "I hope you're having a good day. I come in?""I was until you arrived," He raised an eyebrow. "Are you spying on us?"I laughed, "Come on, Louis. Why would I do something like that? Don't be ridiculous.""Chris sent you, didn't he?" He studied me, still blocking the way in. How frustrating!"Of course not. I just felt like seeing Clyde. Can I go in now.""He's your sister's ex," he said."So what? Can't I see my sister's ex if we're friends? What the hell is wrong with you? This doesn't concern you at all.""You can't kiss him. Especia
Forbidden Bliss Easy
Chris's lips met mine. My mind was telling me it was wrong and I should stop yet my body ached for more of him. I kissed him back, enjoying the sweet feeling that arose from the connection of our lips. Desire raged through my whole body as the kiss became steamy.He disconnected his lips from mine and they dropped kisses along my jawline and downwards to my neck. His right hand went under my top caressing my tummy which tightened and arched at the contact. His gentle touch and kisses left me craving more. I didn't think I'd ever get enough.I pulled away and lifted up his shirt so he could remove it. He froze for a second but smiled, and pulled it off his head. He was lean but he had well defined abs. I smiled, tracing my fingers along the lovely tattoos on his smooth but hard skin."They're awesome," I told Chris who was not listening because he was too busy trying to get my top off. It finally went over my head and landed on

"I can't believe this," Kelsey said, placing the battery on the table. It was the only thing in the phone that survived intact. She grabbed a broom and collected the remaining pieces of my phone. "Even after knowing that you have a boyfriend, Chris is still after you? How did you get so lucky, my friend?""And he's gonna get you a phone? Just like that?""Is there something you're not telling us?" Ruby asked. She bent over to unbuckle her brown flats. "We're your friends, you know."I studied the girls' faces and they seemed to share the same opinion. Anyone could tell they were highly suspicious by their smiles and that was not good for me at all. Maybe they had already talked about me behind my back.Shit!"Alright," I sighed. "The thing is they don't like each other at all. They're kind of enemies.""So you knew Chris before that party?" Nina asked unwrapping a bar of chocolate. She took a g
Forbidden Bliss Get out
Fury swept over me the moment Clyde mentioned Chris. I broke away and went to sit on my bed. This wasn't how I wanted things to go. If he wanted us to work out, he had to put his little feud aside."I can't just stop talking to him."Clyde glared at me. "What? Why not?""He seems to be a good person," I reasoned. "He'd be hurt if I just stopped talking to him. We're kind of friends now.""So you wanna please him and hurt me? Wow that's really great, Shannon. Thank you for being so considerate. I love you so much more now.""Stop being dramatic. I'm not trying to hurt you," I explained. "Just because you hate Chris doesn't mean I should hate him. I don't even know what happened between you guys. Why should I get involved?""You don't know because it's none of your business." Clyde came to sit next to me. I let him hold my hand. "All you need to know is he's not what he makes you thin
