[MileApo, from the beginning to the present | BOOK ONE] Apo licks the rim of the glass and tips it to Mile's lips. Mile drinks, never taking his eyes off Apo. Apo takes a sip from the glass next. Mile is transfixed by the seductive bob of his Adam's apple, and his sensual neck. It's suddenly hard to breath. There's no air in the room. They stare at each other. You're so pretty it hurts to breathe, Mile thinks. He is realizing he may never have the courage to say it out loud. If Mile tells Apo how he feels, will Apo still feel safe and comfortable getting naked around him? Will it jeopardize their work? If their relationship is sabotaged, so too are their careers. It would be selfish of Mile to risk it all for his personal happiness. They should remain friends. It's the all-round best option. "Let's rehearse the pool scene." Mile says, completely incongruous with what he just determined. Mile sometimes says stupid things when he's nervous. #3 - mxm | May 12, 2023 #9 - boyxboy | May 12, 2023 #9 - bxb | May 13, 2023 #5 - kinnporsche | May 25, 2023

He placed the wine glass on the table and shifted his gaze to me, "It's a deal." His face broke into a small smile as he stretched his hand out to me. Hesitantly, I shook his. "I hope this goes as intended," I sighed. "Surely," he said, drawing his hand away from mine. "As long as you keep your head in the game and don't grow feelings for me, Ms Pearl." He sneered. "Oh please," I rolled my eyes at him. "I should be the one saying that," I scoffed. The smirk he had on his face, faded into a light frown. "Just to get it out there, Ms Pearl. You are not my type." He said as his gaze bored into mine. ~~~~~~~ For Pearl, the last thing she could ever imagine was faking a relationship with no other, but Billionaire Onyekachi Phillips, a man who came from wealth but broken. But then, there was no better option, all she wanted to do was drive her ex away, the same ex who ghosted her three years ago. Putting up with Kachi's arrogant personality was one thing, but falling in love with him was something she wasn't prepared for and that, she was determined not to let happen.

I chuckled, "if I may ask, who is this beautiful girl you speak of?" I dropped my pen on the book on my table and closed it while directing my attention to Daniel. "You na!" He says and uses a finger to bop my nose making me laugh. "It seems you love teasing people. You've done nothing but tease me since you arrived here three weeks ago." It's been three weeks since school resumed and I must tell you, teachers have done nothing but kill us with classworks and assignment. The pending practicals we are yet to do is also a major problem. "I don't tease people, I just basically state facts." "If I get what you just said then, you just stated a fact about me being beautiful?" I arched an eyebrow. How corny! "Yes. Can't you see how beautiful you are? You look so gorgeous. Your face is so beautiful, your black eyes and the cornrows you have on your head makes you look more magnificent. Your pink lips which I always want to see everyday. Your lovely shape gives me sleepless night..." I couldn't stop blushing as Daniel said those words even though I tried too, but the way he kept saying those words... ⚫ ⚫ ⚫ ⚫ Blurb Credit to: @_mothawriter_
