Logan
I didn't know I lived a boring life till I met Mia. She made my life interesting, I always anticipated seeing her.
She went back to school two weeks after and she will no longer be in the office.
I have been calling and texting her all through the weekend but I got no response. It looked like she was avoiding me.
I assisted her in getting her mother from the hospital to the house and, that was the last time she spoke to me.
I recalled her words in my office when she said I was going to pay, was this it?
"Boss, we have a meeting in 10 minutes" Kevin said when he saw me leaving the office
"Cancel it" I said
"But sir…" Kevin wanted to protest
"I said to cancel it Kevin" I said

I drove to Mia's campus
There she was, the only girl that effortlessly catches my attention these days. Her unique clothes and style always stand out
"Why don't I make her mine already?" I asked myself
"Mia, can we talk?" I asked her when I saw her heading to the canteen with her best friend since it was lunch break.
"Sorry Logan, I don't have the time" she replied. I just confirmed my doubts that something is up.
"Did she just turn down Logan Adams, who is she?" I heard some girls talking
"Mia please" I insisted
"He's even begging, what did she give him to make him behave like this? I'll ask her later" the girl from earlier said again
"Why would you do that?" her friend asked her
"Who doesn't want a man who worships and adores her?" she said
"For that to happen, you need to earn it. Stop uttering nonsense, let's go" She tried to tug her friend away but the girl refused.
I also wondered why Mia had this impact on me.
"This girl is not even familiar. Is she a model, actress, or celebrity? why haven't I heard about her before?" the girl asked her friend
"Where have you been? Haven't you heard they are a couple? They were all over the news last week and to answer your question, she's none of that, she's just like us" the other girl replied
"I had no idea" she replied and with that, they finally left.
"I will only beg you one more time" I told her
"And what is that supposed to mean?" she asked me
"Hey Mr.Adams, you can't just come here and order my Friend around. She's not your employee or business partner" Sophia, her best friend said
"I just want to talk to her" I told Sophia
"It's evident, she doesn't want to talk to you" Sophia said
"She doesn't have a choice, she's coming with me" I said
"Get in Mia" I said when I opened the passenger door.
"I won't" she said
"Stop throwing tantrums, people have started looking in our direction" I told her
"I don't care. You started this, I already said I'm not going with you" She told me
"She said she's not coming with you, leave her alone" I ignored Sophia's words
With one long stride, I moved to where Mia was standing. I lifted her princess-style, and then practically shoved her into the car.
"Let me out Logan, we don't have anything to discuss" she screamed.
"Keep quiet Mia, you are embarrassing us" I ordered her as I entered the car.
"Us?" she asked
"Yes baby"I said. I could see her fighting her blush but I had already seen it.
She obeyed me and kept quiet. Well, that worked.
She didn't keep quiet for too long though.
"This is kidnapping and I'm going to scream if you don't open this car and let me out" she said and she struggled to open the door.
It was like she wanted to stay calm but then remembered I did something terrible so she had to lose her cool and snap again.
"I locked it. Stop trying to get away from me because I won't let you"I told her
I kept driving since she didn't say anything anymore. I was taking Mia to my favorite spot in the city, it was a beautiful lake.
"Why have you been avoiding me, did I do something wrong?'' I asked her when I stopped the car.
Mia didn't say anything.
"Come on, I missed you. Don't you miss me, let's fix whatever is going wrong" I said and took her hand in mine
"Nothing is wrong Logan, there's no fixing to be done" she said
"Mia…." I said
"I'm serious about this.We are nothing so we can't possibly have a problem" she said
"How can you say that? I love you and I know you love me too" I said
Mia opened the car door and went out. She moved further away from me, I just watched her back.
She stood near the lake and lit a cigarette, I didn't try to stop her.
She looked back at me.
"You are not going to stop me from smoking today?" she asked
I walked to where she was standing.
"No, I won't" I told her
"Why?" she asked
"Because you look like you need it, you are really pissed about something" I told her
"Stupid" she said
"What?" I asked her
"Stupid, all of these including you. You can't even be consistent with your stand about me not smoking" she said with an angry tone.
"I haven't smoked in a while because of you, but I started smoking again after a while because of you" she told me and my heart ached
"What did I do?" I asked her
"What didn't you do?" she asked me instead
"You make me fall for you, you take care of my mum, you kiss me in your office, you make breakfast for me, you dance with me, then you tell me you love me but you can't be with me because you love your ex more" she listed the things I did to her.
I felt bad for her.
"To crown it all Logan, I saw you" she said
"What do you mean?" I asked her but my heart was racing from fear of the unknown
"You forgot your wristwatch at my house, the day we took my mom from the hospital. Haven't you noticed you lost it?" she asked me
"I have lots of them so I didn't notice" I told her
"Good for you" she said
"I brought it to your place, but I didn't get the chance to give it to you because I saw you kissing Selena" she said and I broke into a thousand pieces.
"You kissed me that day too before leaving. Then you went right back to kiss Selena?"she asked me
"No, no, no, that's not it Mia. I'm sorry, look at me. I'm sorry" I begged because that wasn't what actually happened.
"What are we?" she asked me with red eyes but I stayed quiet.
I knew I loved Mia but I couldn't answer, I hurt her.
She quickly wiped her eyes and nodded her head.
"I don't cry, you just almost made me cry Logan" she laughed
"How can you joke about something as serious as this?" I asked her
"Serious? if you took me seriously you wouldn't let Selena get close to you" she pushed at my chest
"Mia, I told you from the very beginning that this wasn't going to be easy for me, that was why I hired you in the first place" he said
"So is this my fault? You are right, it's my fault that I fell in love with you, that I fell in love with a man who can't make his own decisions" she said
"You going too far with this" I told her
"Am I?" she asked me
Mia sat down on the lawn that surrounded the lake, but I just stood there watching her every move.
I always felt peace whenever I came here, but it was different today.
Mia started taking off her clothes.
"What are you doing?" I asked her
"I don't want to drown with clothes on" she said
I moved fast to reach her, stopping her in the process.
"Stop making such utterances, don't do anything. Put on your clothes" I scolded
"I was just kidding. I can't drown myself simply because I saw you kissing your ex, it has to be something bigger than that" she said with a smile
She took off her oversized t-shirt and was left with just her black-coloured bralette.
I swallowed hard.
"Mia, what are you doing?" I asked her
"I didn't ask you to watch me, you can turn around if you want" she said
I was supposed to turn around but I didn't, I just stood in front of her watching the show she was putting up.
Her baggy jean trousers came off next, flashing me her v-shaped black colored panties.
She moved past me and got into the water. It was a sight to behold, what does she eat to have such an attractive body?
She smiled at me from inside the water.
"You can join me if you want" she said
"I shouldn't" my mind told me but my brain did otherwise
I removed my clothes in a hurry and joined Mia.
"Move closer" she said
"I'd rather not" I said
"I wasn't asking" she said before closing the gap between us.
She wrapped her arms around my neck, then she began planting soft kisses on my lips.
"Did you enjoy the kiss with Selena? don't you want to experience something new Logan?" She asked me but I was dumbstruck
How Mia remained a virgin until she met me, still remains a mystery to me with all the sexual knowledge she has.
She sent her hands between my thighs and looked at me straight in the eyes.
"May I?" she asked and I nodded
It was pure bliss.
She kissed me with hunger and I reciprocated. I lifted her through her butt and she clasped her legs around my waist.
