Sebrina P.O.V

As Austin sped down the road, I started to get anxious. "Austin, are you okay?" I asked, my voice softer this time. He didn’t even glance at me, just gave a small nod, clearly upset about something. My worries grew. What the hell happened? Did someone say something to him?

He stopped the car abruptly in front of my house. I could’ve just walked out, but something in the pit of my stomach told me not to leave him like this. "Are you sure you're okay?" I tried again, this time more gently. He ignored me—again.

I huffed in frustration, unbuckling my seatbelt, ready to leave. My hand was on the door handle, but I paused, turning to him. I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was really bothering him. And it was starting to piss me off.

I turned to face him fully. "So, you're just not going to answer me? Seriously?" He stared out the window, clearly avoiding me on purpose. Okay, you asked for it, I thought. Without thinking much, I unbuckled and climbed into his lap, straddling him, catching him completely off guard.

Austin’s eyes widened as I settled on his lap, my hands cupping his face, forcing him to look at me. "If you don’t tell me what’s going on, I’m not leaving," I said firmly.

His hands found my waist, pulling me closer until our bodies were flush against each other. He buried his face in my neck and took a long, shaky breath. "Just… stay for a while," he mumbled, his voice low and vulnerable.

I wrapped my arms around him, letting him lean into me. My heart ached a little. I’d never seen him like this before—so unguarded, so raw. I shifted in his lap, holding him tighter, feeling his steady breath against my skin. After a few moments, he lifted his head, and I stroked his cheek with my thumb.

"What’s wrong? Did I do something?" I asked softly.

He just shook his head, his expression one of disbelief, as if he couldn’t believe I was asking. I started to pull back, but he grabbed my waist, keeping me in place, his green eyes locking onto mine. Without warning, he kissed me—soft, tender, and unlike the usual fiery passion between us.

His lips moved over mine, slow and smooth, and I couldn’t help but moan when his hand squeezed my ass. Things started heating up again. His kisses became more demanding, and I felt his tongue slip between my lips. My head was spinning, lost in the moment, as he kissed my neck, biting and sucking, probably leaving a mark.

I threw my head back in pleasure, his lips trailing down to my collarbone. But something inside me screamed that we needed to stop. As much as I enjoyed this—enjoyed him—I knew this was dangerous territory.

I pulled back, catching my breath, and cupped his face. "Austin, stop," I whispered, and the look on his face made my heart clench. He looked frightened, his large hands cradling my face.

"Did I hurt you?" he asked, his voice soft and worried. Yeah, you're hurting me without even realizing it, I thought but didn’t say aloud. I shook my head instead. "No, but I have to go. Polo’s probably waiting for me."

He sighed heavily, leaning back in his seat, throwing his head back in frustration. He ran a hand through his hair before glancing back at me, leaning in for one last kiss—gentle, but lingering, like he didn’t want to let go.

I climbed off his lap and stepped out of the car. As I walked toward my door, I suddenly heard footsteps behind me. Before I could turn around, Austin’s arms wrapped around me from behind, pulling me into a tight hug. I leaned into him, savoring the warmth of his embrace, my head resting on his chest.

"Did you just run out here for a hug?" I asked, half-smiling as I pulled back to look at him.

He smirked down at me. "Well, you forgot your phone… and it gave me an excuse to see you one more time." He handed it over with a sheepish grin.

I hummed in response, shaking my head. "Okay, okay. Now, I really have to go."

He kissed my forehead, lingering for a moment, before heading back to his car. I watched him drive off before I finally went inside, shutting the door behind me.

Once I was in my room, I felt the exhaustion hit. I changed into my comfy clothes, washed my face, and collapsed onto my bed. As I lay there, staring out of my window at the night sky, my mind was swirling with everything that had happened tonight.

What the hell am I doing?

I knew that whatever was happening between Austin and me was wrong. I knew he wasn’t right for me. We were nothing alike, and as much as I tried to keep my distance, I kept getting drawn back to him. I also knew that Valeria, his supposed girlfriend, was cheating on him. But here we were—both doing the same thing.

What am I even expecting? I thought, sighing deeply. I couldn’t let myself fall for him. Austin was the type of guy who could break my heart without a second thought. If Ander, who was supposed to be my best friend, could turn his back on me, what was Austin going to do when things got tough? He’d run, no doubt.

I turned onto my side, staring at the ceiling. I couldn’t let Austin get any closer. I had to protect myself. Focus on work, focus on Polo—that’s all that mattered now.
