Addiction

Chapter 16

Chris' POV

I wake up to the sound of knocking on the locked bedroom door. I slowly make my way towards it after throwing on my sweats. Once I open the door, Iben throws herself in. She stands at the edge of the bed before jumping on top of Eva, punching her harshly. I pull her off of Eva and once she is free from Iben's grasp, she scrambles to my side of the bed, trying to keep her body covered.

"I fucking knew it you asshole!" She says while trying to throw punches my way. I catch her fists before she starts to grab her miscellaneous items that she has managed to store here for the time span of our 8 month long relationship.

"Let me help you out." I say and she obliges instead of fighting me over this. We walk out of the quiet house and out into the cold morning air.

"I was going to let you down easy. This all just happened so suddenly..." I utter to her before she sends a slap across my face. After that she leaves which is my cue to go inside. Eva stands at the top of the stairway and a light purple bruise shows up on her cheek. I pull her close with a hug before she walks in our bedroom.

"I'm sorry. I should've known that I would only cause trouble." Eva says once I embrace her in my arms. She keeps her eyes down, noting to me that she is on the verge of tears.

"I love you. Okay? Don't let her get you down. I love you and only you. Nothing else matters in the world." I tell her and wipe away a few tears that have begun to slip out of her bright eyes.

...

"I have to go to a meeting with a few of the guys but later on when I come back, all three of us can go out to dinner with William and Noora if that's okay with you guys?" I ask yet somewhat say to the girls, who finish rinsing off their plates from lunch.

"Actually, I think I'll stay in tonight." Ingrid says and I watch Eva give her a surprising look.

"Are you sure? We can all hang out at the house if you prefer that. I want to make you feel included." I say to her politely and she gives me a small smile.

"It's fine. I want to stay here and relax. I think you and my best friend should go out and have the time of your lives." She said with a playful smirk towards me. I laugh and Eva rolls her eyes while throwing a soft punch towards Ingrid's arm.

"Okay. I'll leave you a few take out menus so you can order in if you want." I say while walking over to Eva, giving some sort of cue for Ingrid to leave silently.

"I'll get done with the meeting around 5 so I'll get home around 5:30. Sound good? You can hang here with Ingrid and once I get home we can get ready to go out." I say while wrapping my arms around her waist slowly, making sure to linger on her perfect body that I discovered last night.

"That sounds perfect babe." She says while turning to face me. Her eyes sparkle and the bruise that was on her cheek this morning has somewhat faded. She bites her lip seductively and I pull her close to me before our lips collide harshly. She moans into the kiss, making my body tingle in passion. She pulls away and I laugh into her blushing cheek.

"I'm gonna go get ready to leave. Come shower with me?" I ask and she nods before following me upstairs. Once we are in our seclusion I undress her body slowly, making sure my finger touches every inch of her soft skin. The shower was hot on our skin as we stepped in and I watched her lather her body up with soap.

We step out soon before the moment gets heated even more than it literally is. I get dressed into a pair of black skinny jeans and a white tee shirt before throwing my signature hoodie over it. She dressed into a shirt of mine and a pair of sweats that she had. I couldn't love the simple look even more than I already did.

"I'm gonna go but I'll be back in two or three hours." I say while placing a loving kiss to her lips as she heads down the hall to Ingrid's room.

...

"So I'll meet you and Eva in like a half hour or so? I gotta go home and get ready with Noora. I'll text you what to wear and where we are going once Noora tells me." William says as we get into our separate cars. I nod before I start making my way home. The meeting wasn't too far from the house luckily and no traffic covered the streets.

Once I pulled into the nice neighborhood of mine and parked my car in the driveway, I headed into the house. Ingrid and Eva sit at the dining room table and Ingrid painted Eva's nails. She paints them a maroon/burgundy color and I admire the way it looks on her. I kiss her cheek softly, making her flinch slightly.

"Home so soon?" She says and I laugh at her sudden eagerness.

"William let us go early today. He said that he would text me the address of the place and what to wear soon." I say and Ingrid smiles at our plans of tonight.

"Shall we go get ready?" I ask her and she rushes upstairs as my phone vibrates. I pull it out, read the message and take note of what it says. William says to wear casual clothes and says we are going to a local fair tonight.

Before I rush upstairs, I go to the kitchen with Ingrid and pull out all of the local restaurant take out menus and I tell her that if anything goes wrong while I'm gone that I should text Eva and we will rush home immediately. She nods politely before I rush upstairs. Eva sits on the bed patiently awaiting me and once I reach her, she stands up and walks over to me.

"Ready for our first date?" I ask her and she nods her head eagerly before rummaging through her clothes to find something that will make her look even more beautiful than she already is.
