Victoria's POV
I was fidgeting when Oliver insisted that I should ride on his big bike. I don't have plans to be with him. I wanted to be on the bus rather than to ride at his back because I knew, once I let myself go with him, my heart would betray me, and I am afraid if I could no longer hide my feelings for him. And even if it hurts me that he is with the cheerleader captain, I am still hoping that one day he will look at me with tenderness.
I expected that he would like me too, but I know it is absurd. I need to stop myself because he is not even the ideal boy for me, and this is not me anymore since this is the first time I wish someone would like me badly. I never beg any boy to like me or to be with me because they always chase me around, and I'm just wondering why I am feeling this way towards Oliver.
I ignored him all I could, and I tried to look away from his handsome face as possible, hoping that the bus would come right away. It feels like the odds were against me since the bus didn't arrive, and I wonder if Oliver has something to do about the delayed schedule of the bus. And when I heard Oliver's mocking voice telling me I was afraid of riding on his big bike, I veered around and looked at him with irritation, and I could see him smirking at me.
And without having a second thought, I pulled the helmet from his hold, and I put it on my head. I wanted to prove him wrong and show him that I was not afraid of anything. After putting on my helmet, I raised my leg and mounted on his big bike, and I didn't care if I was wearing a short dress, and the moment I put my hands around his waist, and that is the time, I realized I made a big mistake, but it is already too late since I couldn't back down now.
He revved his motorcycle engine and drove away from the bus stop. I wondered how I could stop the rapid beating of my heart when I breathed in his scent, and I could never deny Oliver Prize smelled so good that I wanted to be in this position forever. I could feel the tingling on my skin as I tightened my arms around his body when he continued to run the motorcycle at the maximum speed limit. I couldn't believe that it would feel this excellent and exciting even if I was riding at the back of my mortal enemy.
I hated myself for closing my eyes as I realized this was the first time I felt this free, I slowly removed my hands from his waist, and I put my hands on the air, and it felt energizing. And I was smiling like an idiot as I heard the cars on our sides.
"What are you doing, Victoria?" My moment of happiness was cut short when I heard his voice again.
"Put your arms around me if you don't want anything will happen to us." He ordered, and I wanted to protest because I wouldn't say I liked how Oliver bossed me around. Still, my enthusiasm was taking over my sanity as I felt my arms snake around his hard stomach, and it felt nice to embrace him again from behind, and it felt so lovely, and then something clicked in my mind, and a devious smile formed only lips. I lay my head on his back, and I was right, it feels so lovely and comforting, and I wonder how it felt to be in his arms, and I suddenly remember the kiss I shared with Oliver.
What is wrong with me? Why did I even imagine Oliver was hugging me. And I need to do something with Oliver so he will treat me like the way, other boys, on campus. I want him to stop barking at me, and this is the first time I felt worried about how to approach a guy, and I think it would be impossible for us to be good friends even if I can't deny the attraction I felt towards him. I will never show him any weakness because he will only laugh at me, and I will end up miserable.
I felt so disappointed when I felt him slow down and when I opened my eyes, I realized we were in front of our magnificent house. I was shocked when Oliver didn't snarl at me, and I was more surprised when he offered his hand to me, I hesitated, but in the end, I took his warm hand and held it for support as I climbed down from his big bike. He didn't say anything, and I found it unusual.
"Thanks for the ride," I said, and he only nodded his head at me, and I headed to the entrance of our house feeling so lost. I ascended the grand staircase with heavy steps as I tried to process what happened back then, and I wondered what was wrong with Oliver, and I knew I didn't need to add him to my problem, but I couldn't stop thinking about his attractive face and hot physique.
I was lying on my bed, and I got bored, and I didn't know what to do since I still had much time before dinner. I stood up and opened the drawer of my closet, and I took out my two-piece bathing suit; I hated that I remembered Keisha's red two-piece swimsuit the last time I attended the beach party.
I wanted to return the swimsuit on the cabinet, but I realized the swimwear on my hand was a gift from my mom. It was about time that I should wear it, and I was excited as I got out of my room and made it my way to the swimming pool; and I was thrilled to swim even for one hour, but my heart leaped on my chest when I saw Oliver sprawled himself on one of the loungers at the side of the swimming pool.
He looked so gorgeous when I saw him wearing only his swimming trunks, and I couldn't deny his chiseled chest and rock-hard abs looked so great on him. Even if his eyes were closed, I could see that his face was full of mischief, and I wanted to come near him and touch his face and claim his soft lips, and I hated myself for sauntering towards Oliver.
I couldn't stop the pull that I felt, and when I was so near him, I crouched down and watched his handsome face with fascination. I realized he fell asleep only wearing his swimming trunks, and I couldn't stop myself from smiling like an idiot admiring the person in front of me who has done nothing so far but insult me.
And if Oliver Prize was doing all this to torture me, I could say he is doing a great job. And I suddenly came to my senses, and I realized wanting someone who is already taken was terrible; what I was thinking? I stood up and took a step back as I realized I had almost made a fool of myself because I was on my way to kissing his tempting lips.
I know it is terrible to have this feeling when I know Oliver is Keisha's boyfriend. I felt horrified when I realized what kind of person I am for wanting Oliver to notice me even if he only devoted his time to Keisha. It felt like someone poured cold water on my body that I turned around, and I felt so alarmed at what was going on with me, and I walked fast away from him. I suddenly lost my balance, and I was about to fall on the floor tile, and my scream was suspended in the air when unexpectedly strong arms caught my waist and steady my body.
"Watch where you are going, Victoria; you could hurt yourself," Oliver said, and the tenderness of his voice made me feel relaxed that I didn't realize he was still holding my waist. I could feel my entire body felt so warm, and when he spun me around, I was face to face with his handsome face, and his enigmatic smile took my breath away.
And I could feel my entire body weakened; I held into his arms for support. And when Oliver leaned down, I closed my eyes as I felt his sweet lips brush on my mine, and I could feel the fireworks, and I couldn't deny I felt like I was floating in the air, and I kissed him back, thinking only for this time because I can't stop myself any longer.
Kissing Oliver felt so natural, and he is making my entire body ignite with a passion that I couldn't even describe in words, and I wonder how I will deal with him after sharing this beautiful kiss. And this time, I felt Oliver deepen our kiss by swirling his tongue inside my mouth, and it felt so good when I felt him toy with my tongue, and I could feel a raw emotion that I hadn't felt before, and it was a nice feeling.
Oliver pulled me closer to him as we continued to kiss. I could feel the goosebumps on my skin as he trailed kisses on my mouth down to my throat and collar bone. I felt his hands caressing my back tenderly, and then he kissed me again on my mouth, and my eager lips kissed him with total abandonment, and I heard a soft moan escape my mouth, and he stopped the kissed, and I could see the mischievous smile on his face.
"You will never win against me, Victoria. Have you realized what you have done? You kissed me back eagerly, and it only means you have feelings for me." He said, and I could see him mocking me, and I felt so horrified that he only kissed me to prove his point, and I was humiliated, and I felt so angry that I couldn't stop myself from slapping his face hard while I can feel my entire face turned so red because of my embarrassment.
"You are a jerk, Prize!" I yelled at him, and I could feel my limbs are shaking as I walked away from him as I realized I was such a fool for letting my guard down.
