Ivy's POV

I was awoken by the harsh light of day, as it shine through the window. I gave a small grunt before hiding under the covers. Finally, I opened up my eyes, only to be greeted by a pounding headache. My sign for a good night. But another thing I noticed was my lack of clothing. By peering out of the bed, I noticed that this bed was not my own...Its sheets were blue and made of silk! I can't afford any thing silk! I dared to turn my head, to find Hannibal sleeping peacefully. I saw his eyes begin to twitch. I quickly shut mine.
"You're awake" Hannibal was too smart for me. I guess it was all my moving around.
"So, are you..." I said, opening my eyes. His hand was nearing the top of my head. His fingers mingled with my long, chestnut hair. I couldn't help but smile. In a serge of both panic and pleasure, I let my body take control. Hannibal's hand push my head towards his. I closed my eyes and felt his lips on mine, and yet it didn't feel wrong.I felt, again his lips slowly move away, his fingers still mingled with my hair.
"Your hair is so beautiful" he said, gazing into my eyes. I couldn't help but blush. Hannibal and I were about kiss once more when the doorbell rang.
"One moment" he said getting out of bed. It was only when I saw him completely naked, I realised the situation I was in. Oh my fucking God! Jack was about to flip! And Alana....And Will! Wait, didn't Will tell me to stay away from Hannibal, and here I was lying naked in his bed! I heard his voice shout up from the foyer
"Breakfast should be ready in 15 minutes"
I didn't bother responding, I just got up. I looked for my pyjamas, but then I remember I didn't bring any. The only suitable thing to wear was his shirt....Hannibal's shirt....His perfect black shirt on my body....It sounded good. Oh fuck me! Ivy you gotta stop this! I had no choice, it was the only thing. I also threw back on my pants too.
Going downstairs, I followed the smell of bacon and sausages to the kitchen.
"You're up, and just in time" He said, handing me my plate
"Thanks...."

Hannibal's POV

Ivy seemed very distant. Last night she was all mine, and now she's fading before my eyes....I can't let this happen!
"Ivy, are you ok?" I said, putting my hand on hers.
"I'm...I'm fine....Just got a bad hangover..."
She's lying. What's happened to her? Nobody called, I have her phone. I can't risk to lose her.
"Ivy...."

"Hannibal I can't do this! Last night was a mistake!"

"A mistake?"

"Hannibal, I was drunk...I...I had no clue what was going on..."
For years I've lived a life of emptiness, and I let one girl in and she slips through my fingers, like sand. Although, I attempt to grab her hand she ran past me. I heard her bare feet run up the stairs. I had lost her. Just as quickly as she came, she was gone. She was like a dream....Beautiful, poised, but like a dream It's only fiction.

Ivy's POV

I grabbed everything that was mine and flung off Hannibal's shirt. The smell of it was both sweet and bitter. I quickly put on my dress and ran towards the door.
"Ivy..." said Hannibal, standing in the doorway
"Don't forget your phone"

"Oh..Thanks.."

"Don't worry, your secret is safe. Nobody needs to know" He said tapping his nose. For some unknown reason I trusted him, after all, he did make me breakfast. He happily opened the door for me, but I was just as smart as him, he always likes to leaves traps. And I was right. Before leaving he grabbed my hand. He placed his lips lightly on it, then stared into my eyes.
"Am I kissing you goodbye, or so long for now?"

"I'm...I'm not sure..."

"If it is goodbye, I'd like one on the lips please"

"Goodbye, Hannibal..." I said, kissing him on the cheek, slamming the door behind me. I slowly made my way to the car. Driving often clears my mind, but it's just him! He's there 24/7 I can't escape him.....He's there, but I don't want him to go. Tears began to stream down my face. I can't let him go, but I need to forget...
