The MANSION {Madre's Mansion}

THANK YOU;....

Sonias POV;

I walk out and find Gabby and Tori outside. I join them and not long after, the metal gong is struck, we all form two lines and are lead to the dining hall. I take a seat and I look into my bowl only to find worms dancing about in it. Out of disgust I push the plate away and grab my cup of water.

Rachel soon sits beside Tori and both Gabby and Tori stare at her red, swollen face in shock and alarm.

"What happened? " Gabby asks. Rachel looks up at me before mumbling.

"Nothing!"

I look up only to find Tori staring between Rachel and me. This girl's too smart, she's connected the dots!!
She suddenly bursts into laughter and it's evident her laughter is a pure mockery of Rachel as Rachel keeps starring at her like a volcano about to erupt.

Tori clears her throat" sorry.. I.. I.. I... " she makes to speak only to burst out laughing again. Her laughter attracts a few eyes and Gabby just stares at me in confusion.

Soon everyone except me begins to eat. I look up at Desmond only to find him ingesting the worms. ~How can something so beautiful consume something so disgusting?!.

Soon the gong is struck again and after the synchronized appreciation, we are all let out and it's free time again. I begin to search around for Desmond but I can't find him. Maybe he's at the lake.

On my way to the lake, I stop when I see parts of the tall grass pressed down like someone trod on me. I know I should mind my business but curiosity has the best of me and a part of me is pulling me to follow the seeming footsteps.

After finally agreeing with my mind, I slowly begin to follow the footsteps. I walk for about five minutes when suddenly I hear someone grunt. I quickly hide behind a tree as the person keeps grunting.

I peep from behind the tree and my eyes widen. I find Desmond before a little cabin that looks hand-built. He is working out. I watch him do pushups, situps, and a bunch of other stuff. Sweat all over his body outlining his perfect muscles. He doesn't have six-packs but his upper body is still something to die for.

Lust consumes me as I watch the brown-haired beauty work out. My eyes follow the trail of sweat that flows from his hair all the way down till it vanishes into the band of his trousers.

My jaw drops in adoration as his muscles move and flex with every step he took. At this current moment to the only thing I want is to feel myself wrapped warmly in his strong masculine arms.

How could such beauty be created in just nine months!? If I didn't know any better,  I'd say it took a century for such a piece of art to be formed in his mother's tummy.

I am practically drooling. I don't know for how long I've been standing here. But as long as this view is available to watch, I'd stand for as long as it takes.

He stands and moves over to his hand-made dumbbell which has big bags of what seems to be sand on each side. He is about to pick it up when he suddenly turns only to find me Hiding behind a tree...

My eyes widen and I quickly hide behind the tree properly although I know he's seen me. I slap my palm against my head. ~why did I have to watch!?

Desmonds POV;...

I had been working out in one of my private spots but something felt a little different. I decided to ignore it and keep working.

I had just moved to my dumbbell to pick it up when a seemingly familiar feeling causes the hair on my neck to rise. I feel I'm being watched!

I turn abruptly in the direction my guts order me to and my eyes fall on Deborah's tender little face peeking from behind a tree not too far off and she quickly hides properly behind the tree like a little girl in a hide and sick game. ×so she was the one watching. For how long has she been there?

She doesn't make a move so I carefully creep to the tree. She peeks through the other side of the tree to see what I'm doing but little does she know I'm right behind her.

"I see you found my spot. " I say and she yelps and jumps in fear. Her child-like reaction causes a smirk to play on my face.

"What are you doing here? " I question.

"I.. I.. I.. " she begins to stutter. Her little pink lips quivering slightly and her fingers fidgeting.

"You were spying on my workout," I say.

"No! " she denies abruptly like a child denying a crime she knows she was caught in red-handed.

"Oh really? " I question and I watch her gulp.

I take a step towards her and she takes one back. I take another and she does the same as before. I keep doing this till her back is against a tree.

"Then what were you doing? " I question minimizing the space between us.

Her cheeks become a visible shade of red and I smirk. She has to confess! She was checking me out. It's not my fault.

"I.. I. "She begins to stutter as her chest rises and falls. She is anxious.

I shake my hair causing my sweat to splash on her and she shields her face with her hands. She gives a little scream of disgust causing me to laugh.

"You were checking me out, weren't you? " I question and she looks up at me in shock. I knew it! She was!.

"N. No, I wasn't!  " she denies. It's so cute when she tries to lie. She's so bad at it.

"Really? " I coo minimizing the space between us. I breathe on her neck to tease her and I hear her breath hitch. I smirk as I know just like other girls, Deborah is melting under my charm.

"What was that?" I question in a deliberate attempt to make her cave in and confess her crime.

I look down at her face and she's as red as a tomato. She is embarrassed!!×HA!!

"Nothing! " she says as she pushes me away in an attempt to escape the corner I have her trapped in. I pull her back and her back comes in contact with the tree.

"We both know you were drooling over me just a few seconds ago," I tell her as I stare into her face. Her eyes dance about, fixed on every other thing except mine.
I hold up her chin making her eyes lock with mine. I feel her melt under my gaze but she suddenly pushes me away.

"I wasn't! " she denies and makes to walk away. She slips but thankfully I catch her. Her beautiful light brown eyes hold mine captive and I find it difficult to stare at anything but her perfect eyes.

I feel my heart rate slow down. It feels as though my heart is trying to connect with hers. Her brown hair dangling due to the position in which I caught her. She's so perfect and beautiful. Like all the forces of nature came together to create her.

"Guess who's checking who out now? " she suddenly asks with a smirk on her face. ×urgh... She caught me!

"Shut up! " I reply as I release her from my grip causing her to land on her bum.

"Ouch! " she wimps and I smirk.

"So what brought you here?" I question to change the topic.

"You," she replies and confusion hits me.

"Huh? " I question.

"I came here to thank you," she says as she dusts her skirt.

"What for? " I question.

"For snapping me out of my depression,"  she says and I smile.

"You're an amazing person Desmond. "She says as she suddenly wraps her arms around me.

"Thank you! " she says again as she runs off back to the mansion. I smile as I watch her leave. I've never felt this way about anyone in my life. What is going on with me!?

What are you doing to me, Miss Smith??
