The Arrangement

Chapter 18

Cassandra

I'm finally back and I'm better I still can't believe how much has changed since I've left Xzavier distraught and going crazy in a mental institution.

He's actually handsome , as he always was but not as handsome as his younger brother Jason. Oh Jason he's all I've ever wanted but he hates me for what I've done to Xzavier , like I care about Xzavier he's so weak and naive believing everything I've told him since day one.

Jason is the real reason I'm here I've come back just for him , I won't be like how I was a few years ago I'll express my love for him and only him. It's always been Jason but he never gave me the time of Day like Xzavier so I had a little fun with him back then it was so funny telling him those things and making him do whatever i said.

The only reason I was always with him was because Jason was always around and I could just gawk at him all day long while ordering Xzavier around. I saw Xzavier and got distracted for a split second just to catch up on old times and kissed him to see if he was the same , can you believe that jerk didn't have sex with me. I guess he's changed a little.

"Cassandra honey!"

"Yes mom"

"Come down and meet your cousin" I sigh loudly before walking down stairs to meet the dork. He was year younger than me I think , can't remember the last time I've seen him though.

I walk down stairs and go inside the kitchen to greet my aunt and mom.

"Matthew don't you remember your cousin Cassandra" my aunt says while pushing him in my direction. I roll my eyes and look at the kid in front of me.

"Hey"  I say annoyed looking anywhere but him.

"Hey" he says back in the same tone as me.

"Why don't you kids catch up on old times see what's new in each other's lives" my mom eagerly pushes us both upstairs.

I sigh loudly before going into my room which he follows and sits at the edge of my bed.

What's the harm in asking him questions about himself , I know if my mom found out I didn't she'll scold me for sure about it.

"So Matt tell me about yourself"

"Xzavier I swear if you put that on me I will never speak to you again!" I scream at him , he chases me with around the house with a snake that him and Jason found in his little garden.

It was a garden snake and I heard they don't bite but still I have a phobia of snakes and if it so much as touches me I know I will die without a second thought.

"Just touch it kitten" he runs after me carrying the snake in his hands. I scream bloody murder once he's closer to me than he was last time.

Tears roll down my face as I hear the snake hiss from behind me frightening me even more. I feel as if my worst nightmare is coming true.

"Jason!" I scream out as I hide behind his back shivering from fear.

"Okay that's enough Xzavier she's scared" he holds me trying to comfort me but I still shake while fisting his shirt not daring to let go as I bury myself inside his chest.

"Awe kitten I didn't mean to scare you I thought we were playing I'll go let it free okay?" His voice was smooth and calming but I didn't bulge from Jason's grip.

He soon leaves out of the house leaving me with Jason. Every little thing that touches my skin I picture it to be a snake and cry out , not wanting to be it's next meal or be bitten. Oh I have to take a shower or else I'm going to go crazy.

"Kitten come here"

"No!" I grip Jason tighter hoping he doesn't let me go.

"I swear I let it go"

"You promise?"

"Yes I promise now come here kitten" I hesitate letting Jason go but finally do and walk over to Xzavier making sure he didn't put it inside of his pockets or anything.

He hugs me and I pull back quickly not trusting him. He pulls me back into him and nuzzles his face in his favorite spot on my neck while planting a small kiss. I shudder and push at his chest.

"Don't you ever do that shit again or I'll kill you myself you got that" I say through gritted teeth to which he smirks and nods at me.

"I won't ever do that again kitten I didn't know you were scared of snakes"

"I though you did your research"

"I rather get to know you than run a report on you. Your to important to me" I try to hide the smile on my face but fail when he pulls my face to meet his and our lips connect.

"I need to take a shower and when I'm done you need to get one also or else I'll sleep on the couch" I stare before walking away up to his bedroom where he put my bag.

"I think I'll just join you"

"No"

"Don't fight with me kitten beside We'll have... fun" he grabs my hand and bids a Goodnight to Jason before he drags me upstairs into the connected bathroom in his room.

He strips from his clothes and turns on the shower while I watch in awe at how good looking he was. I might look like a pervert now just staring at his naked body but he's my boyfriend after all I can do things like this without it being weird right?

"Aren't you going to undress or do you want me to do it for you?" He grabs the him of my shirt and throws it over my head tossing it to the ground.

I don't even react as he takes his time undressing me. I'm in shock and awe how smooth but rough his hands are , how he never breaks eye contact from me the whole time he undress me , how he bits his lip when our skin touch each other's. I love him and even though I don't know how it even want to be in love with him , there's no going back now.

"Come in kitten , I got you" he leads me into the shower while the warm water cascades down our bodies.

"Xzavier"

"Yes"

"I-i love you"
