Chapter 73

Hardin's POV:

Switching channels across the screen, I stop at some superhero movie, the character has a shield with resembles to America's flag on it and he's throwing at the villain's face, fucking destroying with it. It's really cool and his moves is really fucking sick and at the perfect precise point.

I rest my head against the headboard and Tessa nuzzles farther on my chest that her hair are tickling my nose, making me wants do sneeze but not coming. Her sweet sent of vanilla shampoo is taking over my senses the way it used to be always, I really missed this, missed her.

Wrapping my arm around her shoulder, I pull her closer to me and say, "I've missed you." I convey.

"I didn't though," teasingly, she mutter under her breath.

I would've taken that seriously but she breaks into giggle. "Sure." I chuckle. "I love you, Tess." I tell and kiss on her hair. A single loose strand falls onto her face so I tuck it away behind her ear and she has the tiniest little earrings on, which suits her beautifully, because she's just that…gorgeous and only mine.

"I've to call Nora and tell her that I'm here with you at your hotel or they might get stressed by not finding us at the apartment," she sighs, pressing her cheeks against my chest.

"Landon already know that don't you think. So don't worry," I assure her.

He surely has the idea Tessa is with me happily at the hotel and more importantly safe with me. He might be delighted that he and his fiancee got the apartment to themselves to do some naughty shits and kinky shits they wanted to do when Tessa wasn't around. The couple will be freaky for tonight atleast.

"Yeah but I've to tell her as my bestfriends and my roommates too," lifting her hand, she taps her finger on my nose. A super fucking cute gesture. And getting up from the bed naked giving me a show she bends down to picks her purse up and taking out her phone. While she talks to Nadia I watch her bare beautiful body at my sight. Damn.

Hanging up she climbs back to the bed and under the blanket with me. "They already knew." She puts her head on my chest.

"I told you. Don't get me wrong but you should move from that dust sized apartment and get yourself one, for giving the sweet couple some more privacy obviously and for you too." I look down at her to see she isn't offended by me, I didn't mean it that way, and there isn't any on her face.

"It's not affordable for me as a college student and a server to get a apartment for myself and living with the two of them in the same apartment makes my life in the city much easier and… fun," she paused to find the last word.

"Fun as in your ideas of the cleaning windows, baking shits and tickles eachothers sole," I laugh.

"Ha-ha," she rolls her eyes.

"You know, I would help to get an apartment for you, I've enough money to get you a good one for your own comfort," I softly suggest.

"Hardin-" she begins but interrupt by me.

"Or maybe I should move in to New York with you and get us an apartment-"

"Hardin!" She raises her voice. "You won't do anything like that, no moving in or getting me an apartment. I'm happy in that apartment small or not and if they asked or I feel like I'm getting in their private place or making them uncomfortable, I'll move out of there." She explains me as sternly as possible and I give up by putting my hands up in defence.

"But if you got one, you could get a break from their constantly fucking eachother at every night and the sounds from their room, I don't know like smacking their's bed against the wall or moans, probably wake you up the whole nights, don't they?" I tease her.

"No, they didn't." She shakes her head.

"Even that you got a break from their loudest kinkiest noises tonight." I rub her earlobe in between my forefinger and thumb.

"I sleep peacefully and actually they really had been quiet, I don't hear any 'kinkiest noises' coming out of their room." Her defensive quirk is really something to watch when it's about her friends and when they aren't here to defend themselves.

"Not quiet as us, I guess," I tease again.

"We're the loudest." She cheekily stated.

"Especially you. You're the loudest when my tongue swirls over your clit," I peek out my tongue and stir in the air.

"Shut up," she swaps gently her hand against my face but I catches her wrist and pull it down over my blanket covered stomach.

I play with her hand in mine, run my fingers over her palm then pressing her open paw flat I put my hand on top of her. "You're hands are so small," I whisper against her ear.

"No, they are not." She says, softly.

"They so are. Look!" I show her down where my open palm on top of hers. "They barely passes my knuckles." I tell her.

"Because you got a hand of a giant," she calls me out.

Yeah, I've a hands of a big-ass dube with long slender fingers and whereas she has small hands with a little bit chubby and cute fingers. Even though they are small, they feel so fucking good when she moves her hands up and down on my cock. Fucking hell.

"What is your ring size? I wanted to buy you a ring?" I asks while running my finger on her ring finger.

"What?" She tlits her head up and looks up at me.

"Your ring size," I tap on her ring finger. "We should get engage too, atleast for now then get marry when you decide." I kindly suggest.

"No," she shakes her head.

"But why not? We're at good place now and I love you and I want to be with you Tess." I was waiting for a moment to say her again and whenever I ask her she just rejects me everytime.

"I'm not marry you right now." She moves away from my chest and sits up. "I told you this Hardin, you shouldn't mess your career right now by involving me in it." She puts her hand on naked chest.

"I'm not messing anything. You means more to me Tessa and I want to be with you." I pull her closer to me by her elbow.

"You're so new in the book industry so you should focus at your career and what next after that rather than on me. I'm always gonna be here thus without worrying that I'd fly away, you should pay attention on your upcoming books, not on me." She brushes off my hands from her elbow.

"I can pay attention to both of you. My books are doing great and I'm almost done halfway through writing the second one. And when it comes to you I don't feel like I'm giving you enough attention, so I want this relationship with you Tess."

"But I don't want to be in a real commitment with you. I'm still recovering by you writing our story and publishing the book across the world. I need time Hardin, please understand."

She don't want any commitment with me? She's lying from her goddamn teeth, I fucking know that. Even she knows deep down she wants this, she wants the relationship with me and wanted to spend her entire life with me. That's what we both wanted and we're ready for that but she's pushing it away, pushing me away and rejecting me all over again instead of accepting it.

"I understand Tess and I've said this before but I'm telling you again I didn't mean for you to be embarrassed publicly by me writing the book." I take her hands in mine and she didn't push them away.

"Don't worry about it, what's done it's done. Be happy Hardin like me." She repeats the same exact words.

"I'm sorry though," I pull her closer to me and she let me this time.

"Shhh," she rests head again in my chest. "I said I don't mind now, so stop it, okay?" She requests and I nod.

I really want a life with her but discussing that right now would only get worst. She needs time and I'll give it, then in the end she'll come around because of our strong love have for eachother.

We fucking will, right?
