The alcohol was out of my system now, and now, I couldn’t stop laughing.
“What are you laughing at?” Sharon denied, furrowing her eyebrows.
“You don't have to beat around the bush with me, Sharon,” I shrugged, smirking.
366
She shook her head, admitting defeat. A playful smile formed on the corners of her mouth.
“Fine, I came here to see you,” she admitted exhaustedly, rolling her eyes. “Happy now?”
Before I had a chance to stop them, the words tumbled out of my mouth.
“Come here,” I growled, in a voice that I didn’t recognize.
“What?” Sharon denied, surprised.
“Why've you gotta make shit awkward?” I sighed. She was really killing the mood right now, as well as my fucking boner.
“I'm not,” Sharon giggled. “I'm just really surprised.”
“I'm going to take a shower and then go to bed,” I shrugged.
“Wanna save water?” Sharon purred coyly.
“Didn't you just take a shower?” I smirked.
“I'm gonna need another one when you wear me out anyway,” Sharon whimpered.
My eyes smouldered with lust as her gaze burned into mine. In one swift motion, Sharon threw her towel on the floor, staring at me, completely naked.
367
I would be lying if I said I wasn't turned on by this. And I did say that I needed a distraction to help me forget Sapphire…
Sharon took steps towards me, her ass and thighs wobbling as she walked. I couldn’t wait to feel her soft skin on mine. I couldn’t wait to take her, and make her scream as I pleasured her in ways that she could never imagine.
She crashed her mouth down to mine.
Wasting no time, I grabbed her from her ass, squeezing and slapping it as I picked her up, making her wrap her thighs instinctively around my strong body. I slammed her against the wall, sliding my tongue into her mouth as she moaned and grinded her wet pussy against my crotch. In an instant, my trousers were off. I grabbed on her body desperately, waves of pleasure roaring through my body.
This was what I needed…
I was sure that this was what I fucking needed…

It wasn't long before my shirt was on the floor too.
I was kissing her aggressively, not out of love or need. I just needed to get Sapphire out of my damn mind.
But I knew that Sharon liked it rough, anyway.
I grabbed onto her luscious tits, squeezing them as I twisted her nipples, making her throw her head back in pleasure. I flipped her around 369
so that her ass was in the air. I squeezed and slapped her ass. I had to punish her for being a naughty girl.
A naughty, naughty fucking girl…
I grabbed on-to her tits from behind as I kissed and sucked on her neck.
“Donte!” she moaned.
I put my fingers into her mouth, allowing her to lick, suck and gag on them, before I took them out of her mouth, and then started playing with her pretty fucking pussy. Circling her clit, causing her to buck against me and scream.
“Fuck baby…” I growled. “You’re so fucking wet.”
I plunged my fingers inside of her, hammering them in as she continued to cream all over my fingers, before I slowly allowed my cock to go in, as I pushed in and out of her, and I fucked her Doggy style.
I closed my eyes, as she continued to whimper and weep against my touch.
Sex sure did feel fucking good…
I was on cloud nine.
I allowed the pleasure to take over my body. Allowing myself to get lost in her body.
Get lost in her…
And then I opened my eyes again, flipping her around as I crashed my mouth down to hers 370
again, kissing her with such an urgency that it was hard to fucking breathe.
“Mmm,
Sapphire…”
I
panted
breathlessly. “You don't know how long I've been waiting to do this.”
Before I could figure out what was happening, Sharon pushed me off of her, hard, causing me to topple backwards and fall on-to the ground with a painful smack. My head felt like it was splitting open, as I spun back to reality, and my surroundings suddenly became clear, no longer overwhelmed by pleasure.
“What the fuck, Sharon?” I shouted.
“What did you do that for?!”
“Who's Sapphire?” she demanded angrily, balling her hands into fists.
“What?” I said blankly.
“Don't you dare lie to me!” she accused, seething. She looked like she was about to cry.
“Who's Sapphire?!”
“Where is this coming from?” I asked exhaustedly. I couldn’t be arsed with this shit.
“You just called me Sapphire,” Sharon shot at me, repulsed.
“Fuck!” I muttered under my breath, as I got to my feet.
I couldn’t believe I’d been so fucking careless. That even while fucking another 371
woman, all I could think of was Sapphire. She was haunting me every hour of the fucking day, no matter what I fucking did…
The last thing that I needed was Sharon going all psycho on me. I needed to figure a way to cheer her up, and fast.
I rolled my eyes angrily, doing my best to string a sentence together that would be able to rectify this situation.
“She's nobody,” I shrugged flatly.
“She’s clearly not nobody if you're remembering her while sleeping with me!”
Sharon spat back bitterly.
“Sharon, relax!” I reassured her, doing my best to tell her what she wanted to hear. “It's you that I want. Sapphire is just a girl that I used to have a fling with.”
“What?” Sharon said blankly, unable to believe her ears. “You want me?”
I let out a deep sigh that I didn’t know I was holding. I didn’t know if I was going to regret stringing Sharon along, but I didn’t see any other option. It wasn’t like I had any other women to go back to.
“Yeah,” I shrugged sheepishly. “I've realized how stupid I've been, when you've always been here for me.”
For fuck's sake! I screamed to myself 372
internally, pissed off at myself, for getting myself into another unwanted situation.
“Wow,”
Sharon
blushed,
burning
underneath my gaze. “I didn't know you felt that way.”
She let out a deep breath, as she gathered her thoughts together. I knew I’d made her day.
Hell, I’d made her whole fucking life. She’d been waiting for me to say these words for as long as I could fucking remember.
“Does this mean that you'll agree to the marriage?” Sharon asked hopefully.
My head started to feel like it was spinning. My surroundings felt like they were blurring around me. I felt put on the spot, not knowing what to say to her. She scratched her arm as the room went eerily quiet, waiting on me to say something.
At this point, I had no idea what to fucking do. A marriage would tie me down to Sharon for life.
But the ship had sailed, with the only woman I ever saw a future with.
I had nothing to go back to…
And I did say that I was going to focus on work.
This marriage would create a great partnership, because of sticking to tradition…
373
Business would be very good and healthy.
I knew that I might as well just do it. I didn’t have to love Sharon to marry her. I would just be able to live my life as normal, I guessed…
“Yeah, I'll marry you,” I said eventually.
Sharon squealed happily, unable to hide the excitement written all over her face. She was over the fucking moon.
“Really?!” she exclaimed.
“Yeah,” I smiled at her.
“Oh my God baby, I'm so happy.” She burst into tears, a
nd I folded my arms awkwardly, because I was the last person to know what to do when a girl started crying.
“We're gonna have such a great life together.”
“Women and their waterworks!” I sighed.
“Sorry baby, I'm just so thrilled,” she sobbed.
I couldn’t help but to find this amusing. I was glad that it was tears of happiness that she was crying, though.
“If you don't stop crying, we can't finish off where we left off, can we?” I said in a low voice, my eyes smouldering with lust as my dick started throbbing in anticipation.
Sharon’s eyes widened, and she went deep red. “True.”
She began rubbing her chin in thought.
374
“We should both sign the wedding papers,” she said quickly. “Get the ball rolling.”
“Yeah, alright,” I mumbled.
My heart hammered against my chest, as the reality of the situation began kicking in. This was happening for real, and it was all happening so damn quickly.
“I'll just go get them,” Sharon said shyly.
I nodded at her in response, as she began walking out of the bathroom. I watched her ass cheeks clap from side-to-side as she left, taking in the view, because she was still naked.
I didn't know if I was making a fatal mistake. I knew that I was probably going to regret this later…
I was acting on emotion, rather than just using my fucking brain.
I was hurt in this moment, so I was just behaving recklessly.
I knew that it was wrong to lead on Sharon, when I knew that I didn't feel anything for her. I knew that it was wrong of me to marry her, when I didn't even love her.
I was just using her as a toy to help me get over Sapphire…
And that was fucked up.
But in this moment, I didn't fucking care.
I'd marry Sharon for business’s sake. All the sex 375
that would come with being her would just be a bonus…
And I'd continue with my normal life.
If my life could ever go back to normal, that is, without seeing Sapphire everywhere I fucking went, clouding my vision and my damn fucking mind.
I sighed to myself, as Sharon began strutting back into the room, with a file in her hand, snapping me out of my thoughts.
“I've got the papers, babe,” she explained sheepishly. “I signed my part of the contract.
Now it's your turn to sign yours.”
“Alright,” I shrugged.
I took the paper and pen from her hands, scribbling down my signature on the bottom of the page, before handing the paper back to her.
There was no turning back now. This was happening.
It was really fucking happening.
“Done,” I sighed.
The walls felt like they were closing in on me, and I felt like I was suffocating. I couldn’t dwell on this and overthink it. I was tired of feeling like crap. I was tired of feeling worthless.
I needed to start living life in the moment, and take every day as it came. Rather than allowing each situation I got myself into to burn me and 376
make me feel like my life was over.
“Perfect,” Sharon murmured, as she took steps closer to me. Her hands wrapped around the nape of my neck, as she started planting wet kisses on my chest, causing a deep moan to escape from my lips. “Now, where were we?”
I brought her lips up-to my mouth, needing to feel her. Needing to forget.
I was going to take my time with her tonight.
I was going to fuck her all night long.

A FEW WEEKS LATER
I'd spent the last few weeks texting the handsome man that I met at the mall.
He was cute, funny, and he knew how to hold a good conversation. It cheered me up, and helped me to take my mind off Donte. I would be lying if I said that Donte hadn’t crossed my mind, because he had. My heart ached without him and his presence, but I knew that it was for 378
the best. Milo was an appreciative man, anyway, and he was really making such an effort with me.
My phone started to ping, as I realized that it was Milo again. My heart hammered against my chest with the anticipation of speaking to him. He could never fucking bore me. Every conversation that I had with him made me smile and laugh, and feel warm and tingly inside.
MAYA
So what are you up-to?
MILO

MAYA

MILO

few weeks.

MILO

MILO

MAYA

MILO

MILO
I'm looking forward to it x
MAYA
Me too x
I scratched my arm, my heart thumping with the anticipation of seeing Milo, and going on a date with him for the first time, after I’d spent a short while getting to know him. He really was so lovely and kind. I was looking forward to seeing him. We’d spoken about anything and everything these past few weeks, from our favourite colours, to our most embarrassing life moments, to deep things about life, like what we wanted to do in the future, and where we saw ourselves in ten years’ time.
I would be lying if I said that I wasn’t a little nervous to see him. I hoped that he liked me 381
just as much as he did on texts when we would actually spend time together properly for the first time, aside from when we first met in the mall. I was sure that it would be fine. The two of us got along like a house on fire.
“I should get ready,” I giggled to myself.
I turned on my heel and began making my way to my bedroom, ready to pick the perfect outfit for me to wear tonight to see Milo.

I waited nervously outside of my apartment block, waiting for Milo to show up. I’d decided to settle on wearing a beautiful tight black bodycon midi-dress, that defined my curves. I curled my hair too, and spent extra time with doing my make-up tonight. Wearing my best lipgloss that made my lips look plump, juicy and good enough to kiss. Wearing my fan-effect mascara to make my eyes look even bigger than they already were, and contouring my face to 383
make it look more defined. I’d curled my hair too, as well as tweezed all the stray hairs on my eyebrows so that they were perfectly arched, defining my eyes even more and making me look more on fleek than ever.
I was a little nervous, but my nerves quickly went away as I watched Milo pull up with his car. It was a beautiful, shiny, glossy black car.
He bent out of it, striding towards me with a huge grin on his face.
“Hey Sapphire,” he smiled coyly, kissing my cheek and pulling me in for a hug. “How are you?”
“I'm good,” I blushed, enjoying his embrace. “And yourself?”
“I'm good,” Milo grinned. “You look beautiful, by the way.”
“You don't look so bad yourself,” I giggled. “And your car looks fucking amazing.”
He chuckled in appreciation, wrapping his arm around the arch of my back, making me feel tingly inside, guiding m
e to his car.
“Shall we?” he smiled.
“Yeah,” I nodded in response.
He opened the car door, allowing me to sit in the front, before he shut it and joined me at the Driver’s seat. His big, strong arms gripped the steering wheel, and he began to drive. I bit 384
my lip with the anticipation of tonight. He really was so lovely… And not to mention sexy as fuck.
“Where are you taking me then?” I gushed.
“If I told you, that would ruin the surprise,” he grinned, in a deep, sexy voice.
“What is it with men and surprise locations?” I retorted exhaustedly. “I swear this happens on every date I go on.”
Milo laughed in response, amused. “What would be the fun in telling you?” he remarked, as he steered around another bend.
“True,” I giggled. “You're dressed to impress, though.”
Milo chuckled in appreciation. He really did look so good tonight. He was wearing suit trousers paired with a tight black three-quarter sleeve suit shirt, and black boots. His tattoo peeked through the sleeve of his shirt, and his chest was so big that it looked like his buttons were about to burst open. I would be lying if I said that I wasn’t turned on by this. He knew how gorgeous he was. He was well fucking aware of it, and he was getting a kick out of teasing me.
“What can I say?” Milo smirked. “It's not every day a guy gets to go on a date with a girl as beautiful as you.”
I found my cheeks flush bright pink as he 385
said this, and I couldn’t stop them. I coughed loudly, trying my best to compose myself and get myself together, because he probably thought that I was a fucking weirdo.
“Aww, blushing?” Milo teased. “You're cute.”
I rolled my eyes, a small smile creeping on my mouth.
“You're so full of yourself,” I retorted.
“You love it, babe,” he drawled.
His deep voice was enough to set my skin on fire. I coughed loudly, wanting him to stop teasing me.
“Now let me focus on driving!” Milo exclaimed, as he darted his attention back on the road.
I loved how he was distracted by me. He found me just as sexy as I found him… And I fucking loved that. I was so happy that he’d appreciated the effort I made to look good for him tonight.
