Glory - A Passion's Symphony |18+

31. Punishment

And if I may just take your breath away
I don't mind if there's not much to say
Sometimes the silence guides a mind
To move to a place so far away
The goosebumps start to raise
The minute that my left hand meets your waist
And then I watch your face
Put my finger on your tongue 'cause you love to taste, yeah
These hearts adore, everyone the other beats hardest for
Inside this place is warm
Outside it starts to pour.

"Ohh, all my stuff is here... That means Ryan did all this."

"No, your Ostrich did."

I heard a voice from behind. When I turned around, I saw Ryan standing there with his arms crossed, looking straight at me. Seeing him like that, I got scared for a moment. And then, remembering what had almost happened between us just a while ago, my face started to heat up.

I began to blink rapidly. Without saying anything, I walked straight into the washroom.

After almost twenty minutes, I came out of the washroom. Before stepping out, I took a deep breath and then cautiously opened the door a crack, peeking out to make sure that Ostrich wasn't still in the room. After looking around and feeling reassured that he was gone, I stepped out.

"I'm really exhausted today. Better get some sleep before that ostrich tires me out any further," I thought to myself. With that, I ran straight to the bed, pulled the blanket over myself from head to toe, and lay down without looking around.

I was just about to fall asleep when I heard the door open softly.

Hearing the sound, I squeezed my eyes tightly shut. My heartbeat became uneven. I took deep breaths to calm myself, hoping he wouldn't realize I was awake.

After 5 minutes, When I heard the sound of water from the washroom, I quickly moved the blanket aside and glanced around. Ryan was nowhere to be seen, which meant he was in the washroom.

I took a deep breath and picked up the glass of water beside me, finishing it in one gulp.

Without wasting any more time, I took the blanket again and lay back down.

I was lying there with my eyes closed, waiting for sleep to come, when I heard the washroom door open. I squeezed my eyes shut again and pretended to be asleep.

As I lay there, I felt someone slipping under the blanket with me. Realizing it was Ryan sent a chilled shiver down my spine.

I stayed still, not moving, as Ryan's strong hands gently turned me towards him. My head now rested on his chest, and his arms were wrapped around my waist.

He didn't say anything, and neither did I. I hadn't been able to sleep earlier, probably because this place and room were new to me. But now, I felt a deep sense of comfort. I didn't even realize when I drifted off into a deep slumber.

"Umm... Tasha, let go of me..." I yelled groggily as I felt someone's hands on me in my sleep. But there was no response, and Tasha's grip on my waist didn't loosen.

"You little brat, Tasha... Now you're in trouble." Saying this, I lifted my leg and kicked the person sleeping beside me in my half-asleep state.
