Theres Something About Him

chapter 12

Hope you enjoy reading 💕😊

I get to the house and it looks like a dump. I'm not in the mood to clean any of it up so I head to my room. I feel terrible. Why does Max have to be so double sided. He can be so sweet then so sour. I don't know why I find that so attractive.

I remember my aunt had told me to call her but I'm sure she is somewhere clubbing.
I read the texts from Lance, asking me where I was all weekend and that he misses me so much that he came to see me.

Pamela had also texted saying she had covered for me on Friday. I need to thank her for that.

I decided to head to the shower first. I had missed how hot the water was here.

After thoroughly washing my hair,I wrap it with a towel, and try to dry it off as much as possible.

I wear some sweat shorts that are a bit skimpy but I don't care. It's not like I'm going anywhere.
Though I still feel naked. I wear a sport his bra and turn on the radio. I sing along to a few of the songs I know as I look for a hoodie to wear.

Just then Ritual by Rita Ora come on. I love this song. I turn up the radio and unconsciously start dancing around. My eyes close and all I feel is the music, I'm singing loud I definitely know my neighbors can hear me but I don't care me.

"Damn Bliss you can move..." A raspy voice says..or at least that's what I hear.

Did I imagine this..my eyes shoot open only to see a tall slightly buff figure leaning on the balcony door. It's already dark like 7 pm dark so I really can't make out who it is. But that voice...I know it..Max.

"What are you doing here?" I ask getting upset

He pockets and starts walking slowly towards me.
" I just came here to say I'm sorry.....for what I said." He says.

" So what..I'm just supposed to forgive you and pretend like it never happened? Max you do this everytime. I don't get why you are so against me.
What have I done to you?"

" It's not you Bliss......it's....I can't tell you okay....."

"Why?.....don't I deserve to know why you treat me...and everyone else so badly"

" You're right you do deserve to know." He says getting even closer." But not today....it's worse than you think."

" Does it have to do with the night mare you had?"
I ask without thinking.

He just stares at me and I know what that look means.

" Okay okay....I'll not ask again."

" Thank you." He says grabbing both my wrists gently, he brings them to his mouth and lightly kisses the top. Electricity soon fills my body. The only thing I can feel is his touch. The way his lips linger on my hands gently. My heart beat is increasing now, and my breaths become unsteady.

He looks into my eyes and comes closer gently grabbing my waist. I become aware that I only have a sports bra on and my nipples are already hard and showing. He gives me a warm tight hug and all my knee strength leaves without so much as a warning. I'm pretty sure the only thing holding me up is Max's hands.

My hands involuntarily reach for his hair and bury themselves deep in his dark brown silky wavy locks. The smell of peppermint fills my nose as he starts gently rubbing my lower back. I bury my nose in his shoulders trying to get more of that peppermint in me.

I need to stop this before things get out of hand but it feels so good. Before I know it, we both let go at the same time and he leaves. Through the balcony. Wait....how did I not know that his bedroom windows is right next to mine. It's only that we are in the same row of houses otherwise that would be a front row seat to his bedroom.

Even after he has left, I can still smell him. His touch still lingers on my back and practically every inch of me.

I put on the hoodie that I had intended too but its clear I will not be able to stay with it. Max has ignited some kind of fire in me. My cheeks are pink and flushed. I decided on a vest. I put on a movie on Netflix and just chill on my bed. I can't concentrate though. All my thoughts are on Max. The way he held onto me back in Indiana. The way his hot breaths felt on my neck. I don't think anyone has ever made me feel the way Max does.

I'm snapped out of my trance by my phone ringing. The name Lance shows up on my screen.

**Heeey ...... Bliss, baby I miss you so much**

** Hi Lance..so wassup**

** I was kinda looking for some company tonight**

** Ummm.....I can't tonight... tommorow is Monday and I need to be up early**

** Bitch why you always bailing on me?**

** Excuse me?...what did you just call me?**

** I'm sorry it's just that ....**

** Never mind ...fuck you Lance**

I say and hang up the phone. Jerk.

I go down stairs to look for food but the only thing I can find is a tub of ice cream and giving my current situation I need it. I'm way too hot.

I continue watching my movie from the living room. Alex stumbles in a few hours later drunk and yes with a guy.

She doesn't even see me and they start making out.

" I want you baby" she says seductively earning a moan from him.

" I want you deep in me..." She says again.

"Ewww...get a room" I say and they are startled.

They both say a light sorry but I know Alex doesn't mean it. I go up to my room and in no time at all I'm asleep. It's been a long weekend.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I wake up as I early as I usually do and get ready for school.
I take the bus as I usually do and I'm there in no time at all. We start on a new dance routine. A sexy hip hop dance. We are to partner up with a person of the opposite sex and come up with a routine with a song of choice. That's not so hard......but it is especially for me,having no friends....yes...it is a problem.
" So ...you need to include vintage styles as well, and a very intimate part of about two to three minutes... without actually having sex." The instructor says and we all laugh. By this time.. people are already standing in twos.... everyone except me. Oh shit.!... " Come up with costumes to go with your routine,be creative and use props,tech gadgets and anything else you need."
Just then Jemarcus walks in. I know him because he is always late. " Nice of you to join us Mr Jemarcus. How was your little boy adventures?." The instructor said teasing him.

Jemarcus was gay so there was that reason too. Reading the situation,he came and stood by my side. I guess that settles it. I have a dance partner.

" Anyway, you need to have it ready by the end of the week,so you two must work fast and in harmony. Connect to each other just don't do it on my floor....that's what beds are floor" he says and we laugh." Speaking of connecting I will give you the rest of the day off to start on your routines. I gotta go 'connect' with an old friend."

He leaves without another word. Its still very early so I guess starting our routine wouldn't be such a bad idea.

Jemarcus starts talking about how the dance should be but my focus has been shifted to outside the window. From the hallway,I see Star,
Dee and Max!

Star gets in and leaves Max and Dee in the hallway. They seem to be talking but I can't make out what they are saying. Dee surprises Max with a kiss before he breaks it off almost immediately. I'm glad he did. I don't why...maybe it's because I like him so much and he always sending me mixed signals.

Dee enters the classroom and Max starts to leave. Our eyes inter lock and it looks like he is going in slow motion. The song I only want you by Rita Ora starts singing in my head.
I like him so much it hurts.

I break the glare and refocus on Jemarcus,but my head keeps on thinking about Max. The one thing I want so bad but I will never have.

More to come lovelies ♥️
