Love and Hate (18 page)

“Hey” I answer.

“Oh My God! Claudia I did
something completely horrible!” Jade sounds crazy. I hope she didn’t tell anybody
where I was! “I… had… sex with the midget.”

I burst out laughing
hysterically. Oh my God, Jade and Emile?! This is a priceless moment.

“It’s not funny!” She snaps at
me.

“I’m sorry.” I can’t stop laughing.
“It’s not.”

“Oh My God my slut days are officially
over because I have gone off the deep end.”

“Well, you’re right you should
stop being a slut, but you have to admit we all saw it coming.”

“No! No we didn’t! Don’t say
that!”

“Okay well answer me one thing.”

“What?” She groans.

“Was it good?”

There’s long pause.

“It was amazing.”

I burst out laughing again as I
hear Jade whining some more.

“That’s what makes it worse! He
was so Alpha male you know. He tamed me or something. It was like he took
charge, you know I’m usually the one that takes charge, but that little guy can
do some things.”

Well good for Emile. Jade needed
somebody to shock her.

“Well you never know Emile could
be a good guy for you.”

“Seriously!”  

“Okay well imagine what you’re prom
pictures would look like” I laugh some more.

“Yeah, he would need a step stool
obviously to even reach the camera. Any way how is your trip, Is Donovan Pierce
good in bed?”

I pause.

“You haven’t had sex yet?!”

“No” I say quietly, hoping she
doesn’t hear me.

“What the hell. Claudia I swear
if you go back home without having sex with him I will literally kick your
ass.”

“Jade, I’m working on it.”

“Well work harder!”

“It’s just” I turn around toward
the patio to see Donovan on the phone. I don’t want him to hear me, so I move a
little farther away from the pool. “It’s just that last night was more intimate
and I’m scared to say the “L” word, okay? I want him to say it first.”

“Okay, seriously, you need to get
over yourself. You are in a love affair with the son of Roman Pierce, the
number 1 man on your father’s most wanted list. You might as well say it.”

“But what if he doesn’t say it
back?”

“Claudia! I know I object to it,
but that guy is head over heels in love with you. If you can’t see that then
you shouldn’t be with him, but I know you do. I know he is the tortured soul
and you’re the girl who keeps her emotions bottled, scared to trust anyone, but
you guys are idiots if you don’t think you love each other.”

Wow. All this coming from Jade is
amazing. What did she do with my best friend?

“Suck it up bitch!”

There she is.

Donovan

So what do you do when you’re
girlfriend is sitting in front of the fire place looking sexy in her cute long
sundress and obviously waiting on you to say something to her?

 Kiss her?

Take her clothes off and carry
her to the bedroom?

In my case, before I do all that.
I tell her I love her. I love her. I love her. I love her.

“I love you.” I snap out of my
thoughts to see her staring at me, scared shitless. She said it first. She said
I love you. She loves me. I mean, I knew, but it’s different when you hear it.
All the possibility of doubt goes away.

“I’ve been waiting for you to say
it, but I realize today I need to grow up and stop being a wimp.” She says
laughing nervously. “So there it is. I love you. I’m in love with you. I love
you so much that it consumes me whenever I think about it.”

Say something you idiot.

“And I didn’t want to do anything
until it was said. I was scared that if I told you later you wouldn’t say it
back.”

What?

“Claudia how could you think
that?”

“I know it’s so stupid. You have
obviously proven to me how much you love me; I think I was worried because you
hadn’t tried anything yet.”

“I haven’t tried anything because
I love you. I love you Claud. Claudia, how do you feel about the fact that I’ve
been with a lot of girls?”

“I hate it.” She slowly says,
wondering where I’m going with this.

“Yeah well I don’t care. I’m a
guy, and I feel like it’s healthy for a guy to sleep with as many girls as
possible.”

“Are you fucking kidding me right
now?”

Okay let me hurry up and get to
my point, before she goes off.

“You have only been with two guys
and I hate it. Selfish right?”

“Yeah. Jackass”

“Well, that is what I am. I’m
selfish when it comes to you. You’re selfish when it comes to me. I can’t stand
seeing Eric Anderson and knowing he has had his hands all over you. I want to
kick his ass every time I see him, because when I think of you, I think of
mine. I don’t want any other guy to touch you and I don’t want any other girl.
Yeah, I’ve had plenty of girls, but none of them, and I mean none of them
Claud, compare to you. I am so in love with you, that I can’t take it
sometimes. It’s like my heart has been filled with hate and nothing, until you.
You bring joy, love, and happiness to it. Everything I have left in this world
is nothing without you. Am I crazy for thinking that?”

“No, you’re not.” She quietly
says to me.

She leans in closer to me and
places her hands on my mine.

“When I think of you, I think
mine too. You’re my guy. You’re my soul mate, Donovan. I don’t want to share
you with anyone outside your family… and Emile I guess.” She laughs. “But
Donovan all the things you are feeling. I feel them too. I know I’m not good at
saying it sometimes like you are, but I am so incredibly in love you. You give
me pure happiness and my heart has been yours probably since the first day I
laid eyes on you and it’s yours forever if you want it.”

She leans her forehead against
mine as I feel her tears fall on my hand. I touch her face and wipe her tears
away.

“”I just want it to be special.”

“It will be.”

She wastes no time as she kisses
me on the lips. This kiss is slow but with hunger, lust, and love. All I can do
is return the favor as I kiss her ferociously back. She moves to my lap
straddling me. I grip her ass as she moves back and forth against me. I’m
immediately ready. I stop the kiss to take a breather and focus. I brush her
hair from her face. Her eyes intensify begging me to take her. I stand up with
her arms and legs still wrapped around me and carry her toward the master
bedroom. Once we reach our destination, I gently lower her on the bed. I stand
over watching her, relishing in this moment. We have waited a long time for
this.

She is so beautiful and she’s
mine.

“I Gladly Welcome It”

Claudia

I watch him in amazement as he
removes his shirt. His body is ripped and beautiful. I sit up and start
unbuttoning my dress. He walks over to his bag and grabs a condom. I’m glad he
brought something. I mean I’m on birth control but still. He lays the condom on
the night stand and starts kissing me. I scoot back onto the bed until his
whole body is in. I start unbuttoning his pants as he slides my dress down to
my waist revealing my black lace strapless bra. He lays me back down and starts
kissing me passionately making love to my mouth. His tongue feels warm and
soothing along mine. He moves from my mouth to my neck, letting his tongue
explore down to my collar bone to the top of my breasts. I’m so glad this bra
hooks from the front. He easily unhooks it with one hand exposing my breasts.
He grips my thighs and grinds his hips against me. I gasp at the feel of his
erection. He kisses my breast tenderly with his mouth and tongue. The feeling
is so overwhelming that I feel the pleasure within me building more and more.
He slides my dress all the way off. I sit up and leave trails of kisses all
over his chest. He tastes so good.

I slide my hand inside his jeans
and boxer briefs grabbing hold of his erection. He moans as I stroke it softly.
The sound of him increases my need to pleasure him. He kisses my mouth and
removes my hand. He moves off the bed and removes his jeans along with his
boxer briefs. I see him fully now in all his naked glory. His body could be one
of those Greek statues, I swear.

He slides my panties off and lies
next to me. He leans on his side and traces his fingers all over my body, while
staring at me like I’m a goddess. I love it when he looks at me like that. 

As my breathing increases along
with pleasure, he places soft wet kisses all over me. The way he takes his
time, It’s like he is the painter and I am his masterpiece. He then massages my
sex building up my arousal. I gasp and moan louder at the rhythm he uses with
his hand.

 He reaches over to the
nightstand and rips open the condom. I slip under the bed sheet and push the
comforter down. Maybe it’s the hopeless romantic in me, but I always imagine
making love in just bed sheets like the movies and books.  I watch as he slides
the condom on. Just from watching him slide on the condom I can’t believe I’m
not coming right now. Just watching that thing turns me on. I must say Donovan
is very well-endowed.

 He turns back towards me and joins
me under the sheet. He slowly grins at me. I bite my lip and grin back at him. He
positions himself between my thighs and rubs his hand along the inside of them.
The teasing is killing me right now. I want him so much.

“Donovan.” I moan his name
against his lips.

He takes that as an invitation as
he grips my thigh and thrusts into me. I wince at the feeling. It’s been a
while and I was never use to that part, but with Donovan I welcome it. He stops
and looks at me with concern in his eyes.

“Don’t hold back” I beg him to
continue.

He grips my thighs tighter and thrusts
harder inside me, filling me completely. I immediately gasp. God… that… felt…
so good. I smile at him as he looks at me with confusion and curiosity,
wondering if I’m okay.

 He starts moving slowly and
gently. I realize I need to show him that I’m not as fragile as he thinks I am.
I grab his hair pulling on tight as he continues pushing into me. I take my
other hand and grip his back moving my way down pressing him into me as I move
my hips to meet his rhythm. He moans as I do this. Our breathing increases as
he moves faster and deeper. He rests his forearm on the side to keep his
balance as he sinks his head into my neck. I feel him shake but he slows down
and moves his hips in circles. That feels great.

After several more thrusts, I
swear I’m getting close. My body is filing up with heat and vibration. I lean
my head all the way back as it comes closer. He kisses my mouth thrusting deeper
as I moan for more. He moves his hand from my thigh. He slides his hand over my
stomach pressing down applying pressure. I feel like I can’t breathe, as the
fire inside my belly begins to burst... I can feel it coming. He then moves
that hand over my sex rubbing it and that is my undoing. I explode with ecstasy.
He thrusts into me two more times until he comes undone.

Oh. My. God.

 I feel his chest against mine
settling down as he rests his head on my shoulder. He is heavy as hell, but I don’t
care. I kiss his temple and brush his hair. I don’t know if it was the built up
tension, but that was the best orgasm I ever had. I know there are plenty more
to come this week. 

Donovan

I wake up to see her bright gray
eyes staring at me gracefully under the sun shining through the window. Her
hair is pushed back exposing her smooth neck. I could lie here all day and just
watch her. Pick out every little detail on her body from the two small moles on
her neck to the birthmark on her back. Every little thing about her, rather its
perfection or imperfection… is magnificent.

 She continues staring at me
grinning.

“What?” I whisper.

“Nothing.” She whispers back with
a smile. “I really love you.”

“Ditto”

**********

If being in love means you’re a
fool, than I am a fool because this week consisted of pure bliss. A bliss I
didn’t even know could exist.
I get what my parents mean now. It’s amazing when
you find that someone that matches you, that brings you into a world full of
joy and peace.

I found my peace.

The week consisted of sex, love,
beauty, and more sex. The cute moments where we would play cards and all she
would be wearing is my shirt looking sexy as hell, causing me to lose
concentration. The moments we cooked, well really I cooked; we couldn’t keep
our hands off each other. I don’t know how many times I heard her say “Damn it!
Put a shirt on!” We had a bet about who could keep their hands off the other
the most for a whole day, and me being shirtless didn’t help. Hell, her showing
off her legs didn’t help either. She has attractive legs. Those long and narrow
legs that are silky and smooth. In fact, I don’t even think I looked at legs
like that till her. Anyway, finally I gave in and lost the bet. Nevertheless, she
rewarded me with some amazing sexual favors. She definitely knows how to hold
her own in the bedroom. I don’t think I could ever get tired of it. We made
love all over the house, from the kitchen table, to the shower, to the stairs,
to the pool, I mean everywhere.

 I have to admit I felt guilty
about tainting my uncle’s house, but only for a minute, I mean my uncle lives
in Vegas most of the time and we cleaned it as much as we could, before we left. 

Now I’m sitting in the back of
the town car while she rests on me tracing shapes on my hand and wrists.  I
inhale the scent of her as she lifts my hand to kiss it.  Is it possible for
your heart to explode from too much of this?

“If it is, than I gladly welcome
it.” I realize I asked that question out loud after Claudia answers me... I
need to stop dazing off. Still, I’m really glad she feels the exact same way I
do.                           

After I got home and fabricated
my Paris trip to my parents, I went to my room and started unpacking.

“Come in.”

I turn around to see Ella closing
the door behind her as she looks at me.

“Hey.”

Hopefully this doesn’t go bad.

“Hey.”

Ella didn’t go to Paris because
it’s a senior trip and Ella is a junior and even though I didn’t tell her I
know she knows I didn’t go.

“So that was a pretty good lie
you told them.” She says.

“Yeah well it was mostly the
truth….. just Emile’s story.”

She laughs a little. That’s a
good sign. My sister and I have only exchanged hello and bye the past month. I
don’t want to continue doing that.

“Listen.” She walks toward me.
“You’re my brother and I love you. I hate what you’re doing, but I know you
would do anything for this family.”

“I would.”

“So why don’t you end it?”

“Because I love her, El.” I can’t
do it. I’m in too deep now.

“Okay. Well even though I still
don’t get it I can’t take having this feud with you.”

“Me either. So truce?” I extend
my arms welcoming her into a hug.

“Truce.” She says with a smirk.
She welcomes my hug. “Just be careful okay?”

“Okay”

Well life is really starting to
look up now. I got my girl, my family, and my awesome friends.

Please don’t let anything ruin
it.

Claudia

Could life get any better? I got
the perfect guy, perfect best friend, and I got my admissions letter to NYU.

I haven’t told Donovan yet, but I
will. He told me he is thinking about going there too. That could work out good
for us. We will have more freedom. Well if we don’t tell our parents after
graduation.

Right now we are all at Naomi’s
party. She decided to throw a random party on a Tuesday of all days, but with
graduation coming soon, there isn’t really a lot to be done.

It’s been a week since spring
break ended. It’s also been a week since I’ve seen Donovan alone which has been
killing me, but he spent the week having quality time with his family. He said
they needed him. That’s so sweet. I love him. He and Emile are in the kitchen
while Naomi fixes their drinks. Naomi is flirting with him which makes me want
to punch her in the face, but he isn’t paying attention to her. I swear if that
slut touches my man it will be Armageddon up in here!

“Claudia stop giving Naomi the
stink eye.” Jade is right. Somebody might see.

“I really want to hit her right
now.” I continue my “Bitch back” away stare at Naomi.

“Ooh, he really brings out the
bad girl in you. I like.”

I laugh. I feel a buzz in my back
pocket. I reach for my phone and look to see the text message. I smile at the
initial of who it is.

D: You’re so
damn sexy right now. That attitude look is a turn on!

She needs to
stop touching you. I’m going to kill her!

I wait about ten
seconds for his text.

D: You know for
a fact I’m yours. She doesn’t have anything on you.

Awww he is so cute. Well of
course she doesn’t that’s why she is jealous of me. Humph!

D: You wanna get
out of here???

I rode with
Jade.

D: I’ll drive.
She can pick you up.

“Jade how long do you think we’re
staying here?”

“Um, I don’t know, maybe an hour.
Hour and a half.” She looks at me wondering what I’m up too. “Why?”

I grab her arm and pull her close
to the corner away from people.

“I think I’m gonna go with
Donovan and you can maybe… pick me up?” I ask in my happy you’re my best friend
voice.

She rolls her eyes. Then looks
back at me. “Okay, fine.”

“Yay!” I hug her as she gives me
the face. “Thank You! You’re the bestest friend in the whole wide world.”

“I know” She smiles at me.

 
She said yes. I’ll meet you
down the street.

Donovan

“You have a very sexy back.” I
trace shapes all over her back as she lays face down on the mattress.

“Thank You” She speaks in her
sleepy voice.

“Did I wear you out?” I say
laughing.

“No. I’m just tired.”

“Sure you are.”

Without looking she punches me in
the shoulder. I apologize by kissing her back.

“Hmmmmm”

“So I guess you like that”

“Maybe” Her seductive voice
immediately wakes up my little friend.

We are interrupted by the buzz of
one of our phones; I don’t know which one it is. She reaches over me to check
to see if it’s hers. She rests her head on my chest and reads her message.

“Jade’s on her way.”

“That sucks.” Talk about bad
timing.

I watch her as she gets up and
starts putting her clothes back on.

“You know I could watch you
undress every day.”

She turns her head at me with a
confused expression.

“But I’m getting dressed.”

“This is true, but I just
playback you doing the opposite in my head. Nevertheless, I could watch you do
either.” I raise my brow at her, basically implying that she shouldn’t get
dressed.
