Things between Zach and I were going great and after waiting for so long, I got to introduce him to Mordecai. I was in my last term of college and just had one more set of student loans to pay but the money was too much. i did not feel like it was a good idea asking Zach for money just yet so I told my boss that I would work double time to pay off my fees. Working double shift was overbearing and the money that I was making wasn't enough to pay off my loans so the school board came to the decision of letting me go.

Things just started crumbling down after that. My boss started complaining about me coming late to work and she too decided to replace me. As much as I wanted to stay in my apartment, I could not pay the rent and the landlord was kind enough to give at least a week to find somewhere to go. I did not want to tell Zach what was going on but he was apart of my life now and so I phoned him and told him and he said that he would love for me to come stay with him. I was so glad to stay with him but his place was all the way across town and that would mean that I would be far away from my son but I had to go cause I definitely had no intention of going back to live with Josh.

The next day he came to help me pack up my stuff and we got a truck to move my stuff to his place. It was my first time being inside his house and when I first walked in I was blown away. His house was so neat and organised and so spacious and I loved it. He showed me where to pack my stuff and within a few hours we had put almost everything in place. We then went downstairs and watched tv together. As we sat on the couch, I couldn't help but notice the way he stared at me. 

"Is something wrong?"

"No why would you think that?"

"Oh, no it's my bad, I thought there was something wrong with me the way you were staring"

"Haha, don't mind me, I was just admiring how beautiful you were," he replied and within that moment things started to get intimate. He leaned in a bit and started stroking my hair with his fingers and within a blink of an eye, his lips were pressed against mine and I pulled him closer absorbing the warmth of his body. He slowly pulled off my clothes and lay me down on the couch and suddenly I could feel his warm kisses all over my body. he touched me gently but with every touch I could feel his intention of no harm flowing through my body like a magnetic field.

The next morning, I woke up to breakfast in bed and a good morning kiss which I did not expect. Josh never did such things for me and experiencing it now felt so good. I was finally feeling loved and appreciated by someone. We were in love and that was all that matters but little did I know that all good things would soon come to an end.
