There was a time in my life where I thought Robbie was utterly and hopelessly in love with me. I thrived on his attention, possessiveness, care but I knew how stupid I was.
Was I just a trophy for him? He was planning to show ??my boyfriend?? how much I yearned for this man.
I was pathetic.
??Touch me and you will regret it.?? I spat.
??Why is that guy so special? Huh? What does he have that I don??t? I don??t care. You are not his. You are mine. MINE. You belong to me.?? I hated this. I hated how his words were affecting me.
??I BELONG TO NO ONE.?? I shouted back.
??Oh really? You want it that way? Fine!??
He removed his jacket shrugging it off his broad shoulders.
I fucking hated him! I hadn??t seen him in a million years and he was all thinking about showing my non-existent boyfriend that I was a slut.
??Stop...stay right there.??
I watched him undoing the buttons of his shirt.
??We have to start the show right away, Ace.??
It was a joke, I was a joke, everything was a joke to him.
I took something from my desk, which happened to be a tissue box, right at him. It brushed his shoulder and went somewhere behind him.
Pen.
Pencil.
A book.
I started taking clothes off the closet when he started advancing towards me. A hanger smacked him on the chest.
??Stop throwing things at me!??
??Get the fuck out.??
??FUCKING COME HERE.??
??NO!??
I jumped away from him and ran to the other side of the bed when he tried to catch me.
??Ace... stop it.??
??You stop it and get out!?? I threw the pillow and scored on his face momentarily stunning him.
He took a deep breath. ??Angel, you come to me and I will be gentl...??
I put another pillow on his mouth. He growled.
Something else got into my hands and I chucked it on him and it fell on his chest and he caught it.
It was that rose he placed on my bed.
We were both panting but he was staring at the rose lost in thoughts.
??I wanted to buy you something when you saw me. I could not find one.?? He chuckled. ??Flowers, chocolates, clothes, ornaments, nothing... Then this beauty stuck my eyes. Beautiful, isn??t it? He reverently rubbed his fingers on the petals. I love roses.??
I blushed.
A long time ago, when I was innocent and this man in front of me was just my friend, he made some remarks on kissing a rose. As stupid as I was, did not understand the underlying lewdness in that comment.
??You kiss a rose, when you see it first? I smell it.??
He roared in laughter. And I was at lose. ??Whaat? Robbie, tell me.??
??I am sure your rose bud would smell divine. I will kiss it after.?? He winked.
??You make no sense, you weirdo.??
Days later there was a book on my bed with a bookmark which I did not place. I went through the marked page and it was an erotic novel, in which a lover was worshiping his partners body and calling his... a rose bud.
I remembered running after him yelling, trying to smack him with that book. The hug he gave me after making me scream ??uncle?? was different. So... so... so different, making me wonder if good friends hugged like that slowly rubbing our bodies together. They didn??t. We hugged like that because we were not friends, to begin with.
I was stupid then.
??Do you think, I picked it up because of the black edges, love???
The rose was blood red in colour and the tips of the petals were so red that they seemed black.
He slowly kissed the plumpness of the rose at its base, staring at me. Brushing his lips along the petals and thrusted the tip of his tongue inside the rose, giving it a lewd lick.
I felt the lick inside me.
He... always did that and I could imagine how good it would feel if he...
I was stupid now.
He was magnificent.
No... Ace, no.
??I missed you so much. I dreamt of you every single night and day. Am I crazy, Ace???
He hugged me. When had he reached so close?
He smelled so divine.
??No... Leave...Robbie...??
??Your blue eyes haunt me love, I heard your voice calling for me in my sleep.??
I swallowed my moans when he rubbed his face all over mine. He was so warm and I was so cold.
??Robbie...stop this...we can??t...I can??t...??
He slowly rotated his crotch on mine and I was...
??We can??t. Not anymore. Leave. Robbie...please...??
??You smell like mine; do you know that??? He licked my cheeks. ??Tastes like mine too, my Angel.??
I missed him calling me that. I gave him better access to my neck, so he could nibble and leave marks.
His strength was making my knees weak. His hands tightening around my chest.
??Robbie...??
??What did you do to me, Ace? You have completely destroyed me. You are all I could think about. Want to be inside you, baby. I am aching for you. Don??t you want me? Isn??t your ring fluttering???
