"I really can't believe you're denying me in bed as a punishment, Jadesola." He growled, his voice laced with a dangerous edge to it. I paused in the middle of applying my beauty mask but refused to grant him my attention. "I believe I am not talking to a mannequin, Jade? Or are you going to ignore me as well?" When he met with silence, he stood up from the bed and began to walk closer to where I sat. He really wanted me to talk huh?! "William, you went ahead and did what I requested, no, I made you promise not to do. And you expect me to jump into your bed like a dog on heat afterwards? Why consult me now if you can make your decisions on your own." My body still sat in front of that mirror, but it was far from relaxed anymore, being in the same space with Williams always yielded that result. "I'll have you know that I am still your husband, Jade!" His clouded expression of frustration made me smile inwardly. "And I hope you also recollect I'm still your wife." I replied with just as much force and stood to my feet. In a relationship that was written-off as a failure, sparks with intense electricity is what had always been avoided. That was of course, until Cupid decided to shoot arrows and feelings are caught. Is it supposedly a disaster when the union is seen as a doom by possessors? SLOW UPDATES!

I knew alcohol had a weird effect on the body but what I didn't expect it to do was make me tear up the dance floor with Lizzie by my side. The alcohol made me feel as feel as though I had adrenaline coursing through my veins. I felt different and I couldn't categorize it. If it was the good different, I didn't know. If it was the bad, I couldn't tell. "I didn't know you partied." And it was at that exact moment I froze. Usually, when someone sneaks up on me, I'd turn around and kick them in the shin or punch them. Trust me, those were very important reflexes even though my hands were made for writing or chopping carrots and not for punching. I grew up being close to people who loved to play pranks on people. 'People' meaning 'me'. My older brother, my cousin Jacob and he who shall not be named. Those times I could tell if it was Mg or Jacob or Mr nameless. But this time it felt different. I knew who was behind me, heck, it was the person who has been around me a lot these past two days but my reflexes wouldn't work. I urged them to, played the actions out in my head but nothing happened. The party all around us disappeared and it was at that I knew, that moment that I felt, something deep inside me that I have never felt before. Maybe it was that feeling, maybe it was the alcohol or maybe it was just me acting on impulse that made me do what I did next. ✿"A tale as old as time, where popular meets average but through a night of persuasion, alcohol and a quite blank state of mind."- When Good Girls Drink✿ 💜"I love the little details and mannerisms... it really brings the characters to life gives them more depth. I found myself wanting more! I love that Jason isn't a stereotypical mean guy at the start."-CayleighKennedy{DumDumPops4}💜 {I take no credit for the picture in the cover. I found on Pinterest and I loved it.} Not Edited...
