Chereads / BLACK CARPET / Chapter 7 - 10

Chapter 7 - 10

As I dived into the pool and came back to the surface, I wiped my face with my hand still in the water I looked towards the sky and all the stars were light just beautifully. I kept moving around in the pool and not to long Francis came out of the living room. He gave me a smile which on a norm anyone's smile wouldn't have any effect on you but his made me cripple.

"Can I join you" he asks as he stands now at the edge of the pool.

"It's your pool, so you can do anything you want with it"

He smiles and then takes off the shorts he was wearing and now he was on his briefs and I didn't even want to take a look before I notice the size off his dick. So I float to the other end as I hear him jump in. I then turn to him as he floats towards me, he is now beside me and he just rest his back against the wall.

"Something bothers me about you" he says

"What's that"

"Why do you act like you are so into me and then sat a point you become scared of even staying within 2feet"

"No I'm not scared"

"Then why do you find an excuse to leave if I ever come to close to you and you said you liked me and you're interested"

I look into his eyes and then I felt worried because I didn't want to lose him and also didn't want things to get complicated between us.

"Okay, I'm not scared and I am interested in having a relationship with you but I don't want our relationship to be complicated in any sort of way"

"What way?"

"Imagine you get a job as a professor in a university, will you take it and be far away from me"

He looks at me with nothing to say and at this point I knew that that question had destroyed this relationship. I stood up and picked up a towel from a tray that has it.

"I'm going to bed, good night."

"Yeah"

"We have to get up early so that I can get to school and take my car back home"

"Yeah sure"

All I wanted to do at that moment was to kiss him and tell him that it doesn't matter and that we would find a way to make it work but at the end I just left him there. I entered the guest room I am staying, I get a shower and get dressed again and this time for bed. The bed wasn't as soft as his bed but it was alike. I picked up my phone and it was 9:00 and obviously there was no way I was going to bed by 9. I hadn't eaten and I was starving so I had to locate the kitchen by myself, I finally found it and I thought his living room was decorated perfectly. I opened the refrigerator and there were so many food items to eat from and now I wonder where does a teacher get all this money from because from what I know about the estimate salary of a teacher it shouldn't be able to buy this huge house with a pool and to stock his house with food, and I know it isn't in my place to ask him so I don't even bother to think of asking him. I spot like 5 cups of ice cream, strawberry flavour and a packet of chocolate cookies. I took them and went back to bed.

10pm and I was still watching some tiktok videos and I was out of the snacks I had brought. I knew it was time for me to get some sleep and prepare for the next day activities which I knew would suck due to the fact that Gabriella would want my head on a gold plate now that she knows James has asked me out. As I got tired and wanted to sleep, I dropped my phone and put it for charging on the desk right beside the bed the he enters.

"Francis, I want to sleep and I don't want to talk"

"Hmm, I don't really care but I want to talk" he says as he sits on the bed.

"Why didn't you take me to the hospital but rather you brought me to your house"

"Look I'm not here to talk about that"

"Just answer, please"

"Okay"

"Thank you"

"I didn't of the clinic because I thought I could take care of you myself"

"What!, What if I had entered a coma, do you think you could have taken care of that"

"Don't shout at me, I told you I care for you and that means I would make sure to do anything I can to make you happy and I'm sorry if I didn't even try to make you happy but if it means missing whatever is important to be with you, I would"

As he finished talking I actually knew that this man was ready to face any challenges that would come our way if we continue in this relationship. I sat up on the bed and I grabbed his palm that was next to me and drew it closer to me to get his attention.

"I'm sorry for not even thinking about you and I know that if we are going to work out it's not just about me but about both of us"

"Why don't you stay here tomorrow and I'll go to school and after the day I'll come back with your car"

"No, people will obviously ask where you got my keys from?, some might think you murdered me and Kelly is going to question you a lot"

"I know, but I'm leaving the school really late by then everyone one's gone"

"Wait what time are you going to be back"

"Around 6pm"

"Oh no, no way will I be in here from morning till 6pm without any one and nothing to do, that's not possible"

He laughs and the looks back at me

"Okay I'll come at least 30 minutes earlier, is that okay for you"

"I don't like this idea of yours, I'm going to be bored to death"

"Look, there is a lot of movies to watch on Netflix and I'll give you the password to my home WiFi"

"Okay, that I like"

"So about the question you asked me"

"Yeah what about it"

"I wouldn't accept it, if it means being far from you"

"No you don't have to"

"We can make this work"

"How?"

"Well if I get a job as a professor in a particular university that offers fashion, right, that's what you are applying for"

"Yes"

"Good, so you just apply to that same university and then we can see each other"

"Well, it's a good plan but we can't be in the same environment, it puts your job at risk if any one found out"

"True so then what?"

"Well, I'm not sure which university I'm ready for but I'll figure that out but for now let us enjoy the present and we'll get through it in the future"

"Okay, I'll let you get some sleep I have a meeting tomorrow, oh yeah I forgot to tell you that next week Monday, you and Gabriella have a meeting with all the teachers and the administration"

"Nooo, I don't want to be in the same office as Gabriella"

"Well, that's another topic for us to discuss, good night" he says as he stands up to head out to his room

"Come stay with me" I say as he open the door just about to leave

"No,no, I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable with me on bed with you"

"Your not"

He closes the door and climbs onto the bed. As we try to sleep, the heat of our body pressing on each other disturb us as we faced opposite side of the room. He then turned over and moved closer breaking the little distance between us and then wraps me up with his hand which surprisingly made me relaxed and before I knew it I had fallen asleep just after he had given me a kiss on the back of my neck which made me smile.
