I gaze at the box for I don't know how long. I'm feeling so emotional right now as I keep staring at the picture. It's so beautiful and I'm lost at words. This picture was taken when I stayed at his place after the party incident. Under it, there is a small I'm Sorry. I don't know why but I'm feeling overwhelmed. There's so much running on my mind right now. All these days, I thought he was ignoring me and making a fool of me by giving me a box with a stone. But little did I know, that he would do something like that for me. It's so wonderful and I already love it so much.

I immediately dial his number as happiness fills inside of me. The phone is ringing but he isn't answering it. I'm feeling so happy right now that I need to meet him at once. I quickly change into a decent dress and take my phone with me as I go downstairs. I enter Nico's room. He seems to be drawing. Nico was always an excellent artist when it came to drawings.

"Hey." I say awkwardly.

"Oh hey." He says lifting his head to face me.

"You okay?"

"Yeah, I am." he says casually while continuing to doodle.

"Nico.. I'm sorry for yelling at you the other day." I say sadly.

"It's okay, Lily. I knew you were not fine these days. I'm just sad that you didn't bother to tell me about it, that's all." he says still not looking at me. I approach him and lean down to hug him. It seems like he is taken aback and hugs back after a few seconds.

"I'm sorry, Nik. I won't do it again." I say.

"Okay, you are forgiven." he ruffles my hair.

"Hey.. You are ruining my hairstyle." I pout and he chuckles.

"Sorry. Where are you going?"

"I'm going at a friend's place." I say awkwardly.

"Which friend?"

"Oh just a girl friend. I need to talk to her about her studies. I will come soon. Please, if my mother calls, lie for me."

"Okay, come soon." he smiles at me and I feel guilty for lying.




I arrive at his place half an hour later. My heart is racing as I feel nervous. I walk slowly towards his door and once there, I start shaking out of nervousness. Come on girl, you got this. I ring the doorbell. Nobody is answering the door. I ring again but no response. I am about to ring again when suddenly the door opens and I find a sleepy Zac in front of me. He is shirtless and wearing only a short. My eyes rake his body as I notice a V-line above his short. His body is similar to last time and he is looking so sexy. I gulp hard. His hair is messy and his eyes are puffy as he looks at me with a small smile.

"Hey, sweetheart. What brings you here?" he says in a hoarse voice as he tries to clear his throat.

"Hey. Sorry for disturbing you." I say awkwardly.

"That's okay, come in." he says and I enter his home. He closes the door behind him.

"So, what's up?" he asks casually.

"Thank you for the box." I say. "It's very beautiful." I add.

"You're welcome." he smiles at me. "Was that the reason you came to my house?" he asks and I nod.

"Too bad. I thought you wanted something else." he says while approaching me. This time instead of backing away I stay still. I feel so nervous right now. He is only an inch away from me as he touches my neck.

"You didn't hide that?" he says smirking at me.

"I- I forgot." I say. It's true. I was so hype to come here that I had forgotten to hide that hickey.

"Oh really?" he looks deeply in my eyes.

"Y-ess." I say hesitatedly.

"Never mind, I like it that way." he says and I look at him confused.

"What do you mean?" I ask nervously.

"You have no idea, do you?" he sighs.

"I-.."

"Are you trying to seduce me?" he asks while leaning on me and resting his forehead on mine."If you are, then it's working." he says closing his eyes. Again, butterflies errupt my stomach just from the simple contact we are making.

"No-oo." I say definitely blushing.

"So, why are you here? Because you and I are alone in this house and you know I can do anything to you right now, don't you?" he says removing his head off me and looking deeply into my eyes.
"I- " I say while biting my lips nervously. Again i find his pupils dilate.

"Stop it." he says while caressing his thumb on my lips. "I wouldn't be able to control my ways with you otherwise."

"Then, don't control." I find myself saying.
