PERCY'S POV.
From the top of the building I could see them. I was boiling with anger. I couldn't believe Phoebe was letting him touch her when she was aware that I'm only few steps away. I couldn't hear what they were saying but if I may guess,they were talking about their son.
I gritted my teeth in anger. That was suppose to be me! I should be the one who had a son with her. I should be the one holding her like that! I wanted to punch something bad preferably his smug face. White jealousy paused through my veins like venom.
I was aware that I messed things up but couldn't she be less vicious about it? I was suffering as it is. Did it have to be him? I mean I didn't think I would ever take any man around her like that lightly but him? My all time competitor?
He walked her inside and I came to sit on the dining table where I could see him leave. I needed to talk to Phoebe. It had to be tonight....this shit gotta end and the jerk wouldn't leave....... What was taking him so long? I dug my fingers in the hard wood to prevent myself from barging into that room anytime I imagined what they might be doing.
Just when I thought i couldn't handle it anymore, he walked out of the room and I decided to give him a nice bursted lips for a good night treat.
on second thought, I would have to hold on because I didn't want to annoy Phoebe even more.I watched him step out of the house and I hurried to her door. I opened the door slightly and put my head through the door.
I could make out her perfect figure sprawled out on the bed in the corner.. I closed the door gently behind me and walked to the bed. My beautiful Phoebe, so adorable in her sleep. I made to touch her but stopped,scared to wake her up and instead sat beside her, ignoring the painful bulge in my pants.
" I love you Phoebe. I seriously do and I'm sorry for what I did three years back. If only I can go back in time,I wouldn't have hurt you the way I did. I know I don't deserve you but hell,I can't leave without you.....I foolishly allowed myself to believe it was better letting you go.....that you deserved more.."
And at that point I couldn't stop myself from touching her.I tucked her hair behind her ear and learned down, brushing her cheek with my lips.
"It was the worse mistake of my life; letting you go. I'm sorry..."
PHOEBE'S POV.
I felt his breath on my face,then came his wet lips against my cheek.I stirred from my sleep.... wondering if it was another dream.
"Harold?"
I said and pulled him closer but deep down, I knew there was only one person who touched me like that, who felt like that. Or there was only one person I wanted to touch me like that. I made this up a lot to even feel guilty about it at this point. I just enjoyed it while it lasted. Soon I'd be waking up to a disappointment.
He wrapped his arms around my waist and I stiffened a bit. That touch! It felt too real to only be in my head... I tried to look into his face,just to make sure I was only imaging things like always.
" I want you back Phoebe. I love you.....I still do"
His voice came. I smiled a bit at his declaration and sighed dreamily.
Wait what?
My eyes flew open in seconds as my senses kicked in and I couldn't believe it. The bastard!
PERCY'S POV.
Did she just call his name?
*It's me Phoebe ! *
I screamed in my head. Suddenly I became sad. She wanted it to be him....what was I saying, of cause she wanted him! They had a child together. she had to want him. But it was a good thing for now...i could use that to my advantage..I slipped my arms around her waist and drew her into me, inhaling her sweet scent.
"I want you back Phoebe. I love you..I still do"
I couldn't help saying. Before I could say more she jumped out of the bed.
oh no.....Hell was gonna break loose. It took seconds for sleep to ward off and for her eyes to adjust in the darkness. She snarled,
" What do you think you're doing! Are you crazy? What, you want to rape me? "
For a moment I was in shock. HOW could she think of me that way? And then I realized, she was panicking. She could pretend all she wanted but this was affecting her as much as it was me.
" I...I just wanted to talk.".
I look her over....and mentally slapped myself out of the thoughts that ran in my head.
*Not now idiot... focus..*
"Get out! " she barked
"Please Phoebe, hear me out."
I pleaded, taking a step towards her.
"I said get out! Now! "
she pushed me away as I tried to hold her. She was mad but the lust in the air couldn't be mistaken. Just a little push and she'd cave...
"Baby please stop screaming. I'm so sorry Phoebe. I regret what I did."
She laughed and crossed her arms on her chest. I forced myself not to look down at her chest. Damnit!
"What did you call me? Oh, now you wanna baby me? You think sorry makes everything better?you think you'll just crawl in bed with me,wrap your filthy arms around me,whisper sweet words to me and I'll stupidly fall for you? You are a joker Percy !"
Okay she was seriously pissed.
I reached out for her arm and tried pulling her towards me but she pushed me so hard I landed on the floor. Shock and anger surged through me."I have told you to leave me alone. Just stay away from me and everything will be fine! "
she yelled. Again I could see the panic and uncertainty in her eyes. I flipped. Why was she fighting this? We both knew how it was going to end. We both knew it was impossible to keep away from each other!
"I can't leave you alone! I love you like crazy and you keep behaving like a spoilt brat ."
I yelled back, allowing the frustration to take over.She looked like she'd been slapped. I went on,
"I should be the one mad at you! How could you? You have a son with him!! A three years old son! You couldn't even Wait for me to settle down. You just jumped into bed with another man like what? A week after I left? Convince me you weren't doing it while I was around! "
I knew I was being a dick but there's got to be a way to make her talk to me. I should have something to be mad about too. Hell I should be mad. She had a son with that idiot!
" Get. out "
Her eyes glittered with tears.
Fuck!
She seemed to be more concentrated on keeping the tears at bay and I seized the opportunity to pull her into my embrace, allowing my hands to roam her body. I cussed when my hands brushed her exposed stomach. Just how fucking long have I been dreaming?
"Percy....."
She held her breath as my hand travelled further up, torn between pushing me away or letting me quench that fire of lust burning behind her pretty eyes.
"Shhh.... don't say it baby... just don't..."
I held her face in my other hand and searched her eyes,
Slowly my lips inched closer to her slightly parted ones. She wasn't struggling against me anymore and I was close, so close.Until....
" Mummy.."
