The body-rocking kiss ended only when they had lost their breaths, it was rough, wanting, and caring at the same time, he didn't want to redraw away from her, and neither did she.

Her hands were around his neck and on his hard chest, she watched him watch her for every swell of her chest, every flutter of her eyes he was mesmerized by her. She didn't say a word for fear that it could ruin everything and she would fall back into a sickening reality.

The kiss had answered so many questions for her. Why was she there in his home in the first place, why she was letting him help her, and lastly why did she end up in his arms every single time?

She wanted to be around him all the time, she felt safe around him, hell she felt a lot of things about him already but she'd yet to place a label on it

She was falling for him but she wasn't supposed. They were very different people entirely and their whole lives didn't even match. He was bold and, charismatic and she was shy and cold almost not there, as for money, her family was a wealthy one just not as wealthy as he was, but none of that mattered. A new hope settled from within her but just as it came, it quickly left. She didn't know what he wanted with her still.

He ran a hand from her temple to her chin then he lifted her chin and pecked her lips. It was soft but it formed ranging butterflies in her belly, and she shivered down. Being close to him alone gave her that wobbly feeling.

"Go take a shower, everything will be ready by the time you get out"

Then he gave her a little push towards the bathroom door. How she managed to reach that door she didn't know, but she managed to door it without stumbling like she thought she would.

In the bathroom she leaned against the door then sank to her knees, she let out a sigh and then raked a hand through her messy hair. Tears welled in her eyes, she just had her first kiss and it was nothing but stunning, and that was something coming from her. She missed the warmth of his lips on hers already. Goodness!!! She was going crazy.

She pulled her clothes off and turned on the water. Soon the jacuzzi was almost filled up, she poured a little this and that into the tub and then slipped in. When she was out truly everything was set for her on the bed Straight to her underwear, she blushed at that. Had Adrian picked the underwear for her? She turned red in the face all over again.

She gasped when she came closer, on the bed was a stunning Peach dress it was straight at the top and the lower part was like a gathered skirt, white stockings, and brand new shoes, the dress even came with a bag.

Everything looked tailored and customized and so pretty but she felt better in baggy clothes she was used to and didn't want to feel uncomfortable in school. She couldn't change schools when it was almost exam period which meant everything was going to be over for good soon, not to talk of punishments the horrible school and students were facing. Kids hated juvie.

Just then he walked in, she had forgotten she was still clad in her towel startled she almost let it go but thankfully she didn't.

"Wow" was all he could say for a moment, she stood there, her light skin glittered with little droplets of water, her hair stuck to her neck and the side of her face, she was suddenly more aware of how short the towel was, it was mid-thigh almost moderate she thought but something about the way his eyes raked all over her told her otherwise.

His beautiful eyes grew darker, almost hot They burned her wherever his gaze went, and a strange fire burned within her.

"I didn't know you were in this state. I apologise" he raked a hand through his hair but he didn't look away.
"W-well now you know" She wanted to sound stern but she'd stuttered on the first word and her frail voice only made
her look everything apart from the stern.
In a matter of seconds, he was in front of her.
"Yes I do" he pulled her to his chest "More reason why I won't look away"

She gapped at him like he was a Minotaur, half bull half man.
"Y-you should be lo-looking away"
"Yes I should but I won't," he said his deep voice sending deep sparks within her, by now her legs grew weak and she was thankful he'd held her just in time. He ran a hand on her face pushing her hair from her face and her neck his hot hands on her cold skin did wonderful things to her, she let out a throaty breath and his eyes darkened the more.

"A-Adrian?" She called.
"Yes, baby". Baby? Her pulse quickened and she felt giddy.
Why do your e-eyes look dark?" Unnecessary question but something about his eyes going dark all of a sudden fascinated her and something told her she was the cause.

He looked confused for a second, then realization drowned in him. "Well" he dipped his head in her neck and inhaled
"That's a story for some other time" he left a kiss on the space between her neck and her shoulder blade she felt a sound escape her mouth, and then he kissed her neck
"But.." he placed an open-mouthed kiss just behind her ears, and she whimpered. "But what a wonderful topic" he let out a chuckle, it vibrated through her in waves.

She held his arm tight afraid to lose her balance, A lot of emotions were new to her, some weren't new to her but it was like he threw more light on everything she knew and everything around her.
He tucked a loose strand behind her ears just where he had left a burning kiss, athóos he whispered his eyes trained on her red lips, she needed no magician to tell her he was of Greek origin and that he wanted to kiss her and heavens, she wanted it too, she wanted it from the moment he'd shown her what heights his kisses could take her to.

And just when he leaned in a phone rang and it seemed to be coming from his pant pockets.
He let her go with reluctance then he pulled the phone out it was hers.
"Ohh least I forget, your parents have been blasting the damn phone ever since probably like two hundred missed calls by now"
"What!!!" She let out a small squeal. "Here" he handed the phone over. Everything crashed back, everything was like cold water being splashed on her face, abuses, rescuing, peace then dread.

"Are you scared?" He asked her
"About my parents?"
"Yeah" he answered "Don't be" She nodded

They heard stomping on the stairs

"Adrian you son of a swine, where the hell are you!!!"
Was the yelling from outside

"Oh-ohh Brook-damned-lyn"
"Be right back"
He kissed her temple and left the room.

Jade stared at the caller ID of her dad on her phone,
Hell she didn't have an explanation for herself but she doubted she needed any

She answered the call with shaky hands and placed it on her left ear

"Hello Dad"
