Once Upon a Time In Year 2006

20| Cat Got Your Tongue, Angel?

Oh my God!

I'm literally shaking right now. No, I can't do this—but I have to do this.

Damien is on his way here and I'm freaking out because of two things.

First, the minute I saw the lingerie—yes, they got me a fucking lingerie.
Can you believe them? Ugh!

And this lingerie—I don't even have words for it since it doesn't covers shit!

Subconscious: "What else were you expecting? A nuns outfit?" *rolls her eyes*

Honestly, I would rather wear a nuns outfit over this.

Subconscious: "Of course, you will. And you'll definitely die a virgin."

You're not helping me.

Subconscious: "Help? Why? Will you pay me for it? No right? So shut it!"

Yeah, like you ever pay for staying rent-free up in there.

Subconscious: "Hey, it's not my fault, that this place is literally empty up in here."

Wha—then it clicked.
How dare you—you—bitch!!!

The lingerie is black. And that's the only thing I like about it. Well, it also has these really cool lace designs on it. Which honestly looks so good but just not on me. I pout.

As I look in the mirror of my bathroom. All I can think about is how 'I wish I was sexy', 'I'm not pretty', 'I bet he must be used to seeing hot girls around him', 'How my legs aren't toned—

Subconscious: "Can you shut the fuck up? If you were looking bad, I would've already told you." *huffs out annoyed*

I—wait! Did she just called me beautiful?

Subconscious: "Bitch, are you fucking deaf? When did I even uttered the word beautiful?"

Oh, yeah right! You won't ever say that. My bad!

Subconscious: "Y-you're not looking ugly." *quickly slams the door shut on my face after saying that*

I grin big. If she said I'm not then I must look really good!

And the second thing is that, I'm scared to find out what Damien will do when I tell him the truth about my name.

I can't lose him. He's the best thing that has ever happened to me. I won't let him go. I'll beg him on my knees if I have to. But, I won't let him leave me.

Ugh! No, that's not true. I will never force him to stay with me. All I want is for him to be happy. And, if his happiness is without me in it then so be it. I'll gladly let him go. Even if it hurts me.

And gosh, it'll hurt me so bad.

I felt tears forming in my eyes and a few seconds later trickling down my cheeks but I quickly wiped them off. No negative thinking, Miles. I'm sure Damien will forgive me.

When I lied to him back then. He was just one hot stranger for me. I just couldn't trust him back then. So, I'm sure he'll understand that.

Fingers crossed!

"Angel?" My heart skipped a beat just as I heard him.

"I'll be out in a minute. Please, wait!" I call out, before quickly splashing water on my face to get rid of my fluffy red eyes.

"Alright!" He sighs out loud "But, I missed you today, baby. And I need my hug." Damien whines cutely, through the other side of the door.

I rolled my eyes at his silliness. "Just a minute and I missed you, too! Now shoo!" He grumbles, something about how I'm torturing him—by not giving him his deserved hug.
