CHAPTER EIGHTEEN: HER HEARTBEAT 2
Lacey walk into her room
and shut the door, my gaze move towards my
bed, moving closer, I pick up the cigarette and
stare at it long hard ” I h@të you ” clenching it, I
drop it to the floor and step on it ” why, why,
why!!!” Sitting back on the bed, I couldn’t stop
the tears from dropping, he will be traveling
tomorrow, a three day meeting.
Why didn’t I agree to go with him? Of course, I
was angry, I couldn’t help but to decline all his
stupid offers, should I just run during this three
days vacation of his? Maybe go to another
country? Start my life afresh?
Picking up my phone, I look at it, I have
messages from Monica I haven’t even replied,
she must be worried, calling her thrice, I got no
response “must be busy ”
” Miss lacey ?”
” Come in ”
Linda walk in, looking all excited and smiley.
” did something good happened?”I ask and she
shake her head.
” I can see you are slowly getting use to Arthur ”
averting my gaze from her, she continued ” you
seem down ”
” I don’t know anything about him Linda ”
mumbling, one could tell how unhappy I am
from the sound of my voice ” he knows almost
everything about me but I don’t know anything
about him ”
” Have you tried asking?”
I look at her ” asking?”
She nod ” did you ask Arthur and he refuse?”
She is making sense here, I never really did try
asking him anything, I just focused on my
trauma, trying to get over it while he kept
distance, only tried coming close to me if I
permit him to touch me ” nobody is special
lacey ” she drop a tray that contained a plate of
salad, coffee and juice ” everyone can
experience trauma, it’s something that may be
small in other eyes but it’s huge in the victim
eyes ”
” Do you mean Arthur has a traumatic
experience?”
” I never said that ” she chuckle ” Arthur told me
about the dinner plans he has with you tonight,
will you like for me to select your dress myself?”
” No, I can handle it ” watching her leave, I
exhale, lay down on the bed once more, shut my
eyes and try to replay all the encounters I have
had with Arthur, a blind date…if someone can
judge they will say we are Destined for each
other.
Everything about him seemed normal, he was
rude, still rude, I don’t think he has any
traumatic experience, he look at things easy but
what surprised me most was the fact that he do
attend Church service.
I remember when he return into the church, he
sat so quiet and listen, even prayed, that
reminds me…..I have never asked about his
family, I know Edwin is his cousin but never
bothered asking about his actual siblings ” am
still mad at him tho ” mumbling I turn my body
left and stare at the clock, time flies so fast.
Who would have thought that I would lay on
bed thinking about actual stupid things for
hours, by the time I look at the clock again, it’s
was late.
Already pass six, he must be waiting
downstairs, I should just shower and cancel
wh@tëver plans he has, I really don’t want to go
out. Getting up, I showered, rob my lotions, put
on my white matching underwear and then a
short yellow dress.
Moving close to the door, I drop slippers, put
them on and walk out, deciding to walk deeper
in the hall ways, I stare at the paintings, this
mansion need rebuilding, its all ancient and
spooky.
Moving closer, I stare at a faint light and a
voice, a melodic voice, I have never heard
anything like that before…..moving closer I
realized this is the only door at the very end of
the hall way when turning left.
Pushing it slightly open, I stare at the flowers,
my gaze move up, the ceiling made of glass, the
moon shine bright below and Arthur stood there,
black trouser, white long sleeve shirt, hair
combed properly while he stare at the flowers, a
white flower to be precise. His blue eyes shine
bright.
He stood there singing, I had no idea he knows
how to sing, I couldn’t move, didn’t want to ruin
the moment, he close the book in his hands and
take off the glasses he had on, slowly he stop
singing ” you wish to leave now?” He mumble
and I remain quiet ” to the dinner date?” He look
at me.
” Oh ” I clear my voice ” no, I don’t feel like going
out ”
” Okay ”
” I had no idea you can sing ”
” Most people don’t know”
” What’s this place?” Moving closer, I watch him
drop the book on the only table in the garden ”
it’s beautiful”
” I always come here on this day ”
” This day?” Moving my head slightly to my left,
I look at him ” what’s special about today ”
” It’s the day my parents died ” Arthur sit down
and look at me ” also my birthday”
” Your birthday?” I gasp ” you didn’t tell me ”
” What’s there to celebrate?” He gulp down a
bottle of alcohol ” it’s same day my parents died
and today of all days you’re angry with me, isn’t
it cursed?” Having nothing to say, I just stare at
him, how he drink but still held his composition,
how can he be so calm while saying all these?
Doesn’t he feel hurt?
” Arthur?”
” You’re feeling pity for me?” He drop the bottle
and exhale ” don’t ”
” I just wanted to say, you sing so good ”
” Oh ” his hands move to his hair while he run
them through it, those eyes, blue eyes but for
some reason seemed really dark this Evening”
my mother taught me, she loved music….she
sang songs in theaters and I wanted to be like
her ”
” What happened”
” Life ” he open the next bottle and drink from it ”
life hit me so d@mn hard ” he wasn’t crying but a
tear drop from my eyes ” lacey? ”
” Am sorry ” I sniff ” I wished you pursued your
dream, it’s so sad” cleaning my tears I watch
him chuckle ” it’s not funny ”
” It is ” he drink once again then straight forward
his hand ” want a taste?”
” Sure ” pulling out the chair, I grab the bottle
and gulp down a big amount into my mouth ”
my mum also died you know ” mumbling, my
gaze didn’t leave the bottle ” my father killed her,
pushed her down the stairs and asked us to
shhh” mumbling, a tear drop from my eyes ”
don’t say this to anyone or you will lose your
life” I look at Arthur ” those where his words ”
” And you obeyed?” I nod at his question
” Am stupid right ”
” Indeed ” Arthur smile ” I don’t blame you lacey,
you were a child and your father, he is a
murderer just like me” he chuckle at that last
sentence before drinking another ” what is this?
You want to tell me all your secrets while you
plan on returning to Edwin?”
” Edwin?” I frown
He fold his hands ” yes, I can tell you still like
him lacey ” his voice cold ” that infuriates me ”
” Am not sure I like him anymore ” my gaze
lower to the bottle ” I don’t like anyone but my
self, I just want a peaceful life, away from
drama ” I said nothing else, silence engulf us,
Arthur didn’t make any attempts to break it, just
kept drinking and looking at me, his gaze didn’t
waver.
” What’s wrong?” I finally asked and he stood
up, he still look sober, how many drinks will
make him drunk? That I wonder.
” Lacey ” moving close to me, he stagger, just
once giving me the hint of his drunk state ” it’s
my birthday ” he place his right hand on the
table, left on the back of my chair and then look
at me ” won’t you even give yourself to me, to
make me happy?”
My cheek heat up ” Arthur ”
” Kisses aren’t enough anymore ” he grab my
hand and lower it to his junk ” just looking at
you turns me on? This isn’t normal right? You
aren’t even putting on a seductive dress so why
do I feel this way?” He look at me, those eyes
hoping, hoping I have the answer ” all I can think
about is having you on my bed, beneath me,
lacey. I want to Fuçk you so bad that for weeks
you won’t be able to move from your bed, I want
to hear your scream of Mõ@n every night ” he
lean close, his lips close to my ear ” I want you
to beg me never to stop, I need you to feel
powerless but in a good way”
” Arthur ”
” I need you lacey ” he is trembling again
” You’re drunk ”
” Am not ” his right hand placed on my exposed
thighs, face an inch away, I could feel his
breath, hot ” am kissing you ” those where his
words before he seal my lips with his, just at the
contact I felt electrified, his tongue, the way he
taste, everything about him feels so good.
I can’t possibly think properly now, those hands
move towards my underwear, holding them, I
break from the kiss ” Arthur ”
” Let me touch you ” his eyes burn into mine ” let
me erase all the painful memories you have” he
kiss my cheek ” let me ”
Letting go of his hands, he push my underwear
aside and dip two fingers at a time into me, I
gasp, surprised, shocked and pleasure flow
inside me ” Arthur ” he lean close, shutting me
up with a kiss while his fingers move faster, I
couldn’t think, I could feel my body experiencing
things I have never felt.
What I knew was pain but right now, it’s
pleasure, so good that I can’t even stop myself
from Mõ@ning loud, if his fingers can make me
feel this good, how will I feel with the actual
deal?
” Oh my god!!” I bite his lower lip when I came,
my eyes roll and I break fully away from the
kiss, my whole body shake at that, seconds
passed and I got myself, my gaze move to stare
at Arthur, slowly licking his fingers.
” Strawberry” my entire face heat up and I close
my legs immediately, what did I just do? ” You
taste wonderful lacey ”
” I didn’t……”
” Love me” He pull his chair close, sit down and
look at me ” I might not feel same way for you
immediately but love me”
” What are you saying?”
” am asking you to love me” those eyes, they
seem to be pleading ” not Edwin…love Arthur”
