*Are the sex scenes getting too much? Should I stop, hmm?*
It's been three days since that night.
Three days since Mel began avoiding me.
Three days since I was rendered unable to walk though I can now, but it's really me limping which made Ari worry at first and then later came to a conclusion about what happened and avoided me too.
That was just for a day though, he later came back with flowers and apologized.
Now...
"Hey, it's recess"
I look up at Ari who has his lunch bag with him and a smile on his face "At least, we can get alone time there without the whole world watching you or us"
I smile "Okie"
When I am done packing my books and carrying my bag, we head outside the class and down the hall together.
Until...
"Nilla!"
I pause and turn, meeting the boys.
It's Coco who had called me, a happy grin on his face, Ber next to him with Mel hanging onto Cream, looking embarrassed as hell and away from me.
"No, don't go"
Ari's hand wraps around my wrist and i notice Ber's jaw tic as Ari says "Stay with me. They have you every evening, night and morning. It's just this recess and some classes we share together. I know you're one of them, but at least"
It's not one....
Now, Coco's smile is gone, Ber has a frown, Cream has his eyebrow raised and even Mel is staring at Ari's hand on mine....
I can feel their tension from here.
"Ari...."
"Please" He cuts in "Just today"
I look at him, my heart and brain struggling for dominance before sighing and saying "Sure, okay"
His face immediately brightens up "Come in!"
As he drags me away, I look back and see the look on their faces.
Death.
They look like they want to kill someone.
I gulp.
At the roof, Ari and I share his peanut butter sandwich, as usual as he goes on and on about how his elder brothers band stayed overnight in the garage and his Mum stayed at the door with a broom to make sure they made no noise whatsoever.
"Nessa?"
I look up at him "Hmmm?"
"Would you come over for my family's thanksgiving dinner?"
Thanksgiving?
He chuckles nervously there "I know it's not yet officially thanks giving but Mum wants everyone home before they can't come around anymore, that sort of thing"
His eyes glitter again as he adds "So would you come?"
"I... I'd have to ask them"
"No you don't" He says with a sigh "They don't own you, at least. Besides, who exactly are you even with? Or did you just say that so I'd get off your case?"
I quickly shake my head "No, that's not it"
"Then what?" He asks "Is it Stradella? He always looks like he would explode when I touch you, or Channing? He's always so touchy with you, or Crassius maybe, he's always, always staring at you, and let's not go to Carl, he blushes at the slightest thing when you're there, or is it possible they all have feelings for you?"
I choke on the bread as he immediately gives me water and I gulp it down hurriedly as I open my mouth to say something else before my phone buzzes in my pocket.
DaddyRed: Come out to the parking lot now. We have somewhere to be in five minutes.
Strawberry?
What is he talking about?
"Vanessa...."
I quickly stand up, hanging my bag over my shoulder as shock registers on his face "I'd call you, or text you maybe. Something's up"
"Can you wait for...."
I don't let him complete the sentence as I begin to run down the stairs.
Did something happen to Mistress?
Cause.... Cause if something did...
Immediately I am outside the school, I find all four standing outside the car, Coco quickly waving at me as I walk to them "Is everything o...."
"Get into the car" Ber cuts in.
His voice seems sharp, so sharp I find myself staggering back "But what about school...."
"We're skipping" He replies "Just get into the damn car. I'd explain everything on our way, okay?"
I stare at him, a certain ugly feeling in my belly that I ignore and move to the passesnger seat before hearing him say "No Princess. You're staying in front today"
Huh?
Ber walks over and opens the car door next to the drivers seat "If you may"
I stare at him, then at the others who shrug and slide into the passenger seat.
Sighing, I enter and watch him shut the door before he walks over to his, enters and starts the car engine.
When it revs itself to life, he quickly reverses out of the parking lot and into the road, fast.
So fast that I find myself wearing my seatbelt.
His brown eyes seem to be glowing a dangerous colour as he drives, speeding up with every mile we took that I find myself saying "Could you slow down a bit?"
He only scoffs and if anything, increases his speed which doesn't settle well with me.
"Do you know how hard it is to not rip you from his hand and kiss you in front of the whole school?"
The tension in the car seems to increase asI say "There's no need for...."
"Is he fucking shameless?" Ber suddenly snaps.
I hear Cream sigh "Language"
"Ari's done nothing...."
"He fucking likes you! And is obviously still hanging onto his feelings for you! Shamelessly!"
"Ber...."
"Or do you like it? His attention, his incessant baby eyes at you..."
"Don't"
As I say that, the car jerks to a stop at the side of the road as Ber grabs the steering wheel tighter, his face twisting up with every second.
"You're useless. Come to the back"
When we're back on the road again, Cream is the one driving but he's quiet.
His face still shows no emotions except that he's focusing on the road "I apologize on Ber's behalf, his jealousy gets the best of him"
"I really don't understand what's to be jealous about. If it bothers him that much, we can let Ari...."
"Don't even dare say those words"
A sudden cold fills the air that paralyses me in fear but it goes away as Cream continues "Vanilla, Ari can't join us so randomly, it doesn't work like that honestly. Even I don't know how it works but.... We... No one knows about our relationship together, that which you're very aware of, but we can't even claim you in public because there's a possibility that we're the reason why you're being hunted down is our fault. They can't harm us directly as our lives are important, but you...."
"I'm not"
"No, you are, more important than us actually" He says "We, the four most important males in Aeira and Vnio dote on you. Your life is very valuable. So for that reason, we have to keep a reasonable distance.... And that's why we let Ari be around you, so they don't focus on you too much, asides from that, we're irrevocably jealous and rightfully so"
This ...
This is the first time he's talking so much.
I just sigh and look outside the car window.
Later, we're on the beach, Ber and I sitting next to each other, staring at the sea, Cream on a sun lounger and under an umbrella, Coco and Mel.... somewhere.
"I can't believe he's naked right now" I say as I stare at a sleeping Cream.
"Clothes can never tame a caveman Vanilla. Remember that"
Ber's in a tank top, with me wearing just his shirt, Coco and Mel in their boxers, Coco shirtless, Mel in his shirt.
Cream....
As naked as a baby.
"I'm sorry about what I said" Ber says with a sigh "I lose control with you"
"It's okay"
"No it's not" He says, shaking his head and turning to me, his brown eyes burning me "I hurt you and you possibly wouldn't kiss me anymore"
I chuckle "Is that what you're worrying about?"
"Maybe"
I smile, shaking my head and looking at the crashing waves in the sea "I lived next to a lighthouse when I was little"
"Why?"
I turn to face him "I don't know. Mother was not a talker.... But it was nice. I loved seeing ships come to the dock, I loved the smell of the sea and most especially, I loved the sea itself..... I'd like to see it again"
"Then where is it? We can take you....."
"I don't remember" I cut in "If I did, I'd go there by now"
Ber's face registers that of surprise as he now sighs and says "You lived in Aeira in the past I suppose. I'd do a through search then. They can't be too many lighthouses there"
I stare at him a while before jumping on him, hugging him tight "Thank you, very much"
He's silent for a while and I think I hurt him till he says "You smell like me.... And your breasts are so soft on my chest"
Huh?
I hurriedly try to move out of his arms but he laughs, holding me tighter as he turns me around and says "You can say your gratitude by staying in my arms my love"
I feel my cheeks rise as he bends down and kisses my neck "Look at the boys down there"
I do so and find Mel who is walking close to the sea before Coco runs towards him, shoving him to the ground as he runs towards us before Ber says "If you take one more step towards us, I will break your legs"
Coco pauses in his steps as he lets out a gasp before he scoffs and runs to Cream "Daddy! My skin hurts!"
Cream who is still sleeping mildly says "I told you to use enough sunscreen"
"I did!"
"Did not"
Mel is the one that says that as he sits next to Coco "You're looking like a tomato"
Coco let's out a squeal "Daddddyyyy!"
Cream then sighs, sitting up "You have two father's. Why do you pick me?"
Coco bats his eyelashes, a cute look on his face "Because you love me?"
Cream raises an eyebrow, taking out the bottle "Turn"
Coco hurriedly does so as Cream applies some on his hand and then to his back, a relieved sigh coming out of Coco's lips before Cream leans in and kisses Mel "That's because you've been a good boy today"
Mel blushes, looking away as Coco says "Awwwn. Do i get a kiss too?"
"No, you have been naughty today"
"Eish. I thought you loved me for who I am"
"Don't lie to yourself. We both know why I like you"
Coco let's out a startled gasp, turning and putting his hand on his chest as he says "Oh my God. Did you just say a bad thing?"
"I did not. You only imagined it as bad"
Coco smiles "You sly ass..."
Cream kisses him there, then pulls away "Do not cuss"
The male only replies by sticking out his tongue.
I laugh "It does look like that"
Ber turns to me "Look like what?"
I face him "Like Cream is the caring Father, and you are the 'I care but I'd break your legs to show how much I do than say it' Father"
"Ouch"
He holds my hand to his face "You hurt me"
"And Coco is the brat and Mel is the good kid and...."
"You are our little lost child"
I pause there "Who says I'm little?"
He laughs, kissing my forehead "No one. It just comes with being the last baby of ours"
I frown there but he only laughs more before Coco suddenly creeps up behind him, and licks his face, a loud growl coming out of Ber as the other male laughed and showed his middle finger at us before Ber says "Excuse me little one. I suppose my eldest son needs some discipline" before he runs off.
I laugh there as I say to the seas and anyone who would here "Go dad"
