After reading Matt email I was wondering did I know Laura at all?
How could it be possible that she has been taking care drugs under my
nose and I didn't know.
The medical reports clearly shows how much addict she has been in past
few years.
I never thought that she could be insane enough to do drugs and risk
her life as well as her health.
The name of drugs that she has been taking are the most addictive and
dangerous drugs. That drugs are very hard to handle unless you're an
addict and taking them continuously.
According to Matt email her parents Mr and Mrs.Gonzalez wants to have
a meeting with me to discuss Laura. As much I know about her parents,
they're decent people with successful careers and did their best to
make Laura a fine woman.
I replied his email telling him that I'll come Boston next week, and
then he could arrange a meeting between me and her parents.
Now my sole focus is on my best friend, the girl who I fell in love a
long time ago, but I was scared to admit it to myself.
But everything has changed. Now, I'm not scared of my feelings and
I'll show her how much she matters to me.
When the clock struck at ten, I stood up from the bed and made my way
to the mirror. I started at myself before leaving the hotel room.
I drove towards the ground where I asked her to come to meet me.
Inside I was eighty percent sure that she'll come to meet me but the
twenty percent was still unsure of her decision.
The ground was supposed to be close but the presentation of small
amount of cash forced them to stretch their closing timing little
longer than usual.
I reached thereafter ten minutes drive from hotel and parked my car.
Then I made my way inside the ground with my heart beat accelerating
with each step I took to be closer.
Madeline was nowhere in the sight and my heart dropped a little. I
checked the time on my wrist watch and sighed in relief. I wrote ten
fifteen, so I still have a time.
My heart blossomed with the hope that she will come tonight.
Picking up the soccer ball I started kicking it left right from my
feet and ran towards the opposite side of the ground to target the
goal.
Then I kicked the ball and it landed in the center of the net.
I heard the clapping behind me making me turn around and see Madeline
standing there in simple skinny jeans and red jumper.
Her blonde hair were falling in the curly tendrils past her shoulders.
I used to cherish her waist length hair but this style suits her
better.
She smirked at me and made her way in the center of the ground where I
was standing and smiled at me teasingly.
"Playing alone and bathing in the essence of Victory". She taunted me.
"Oh then why don't you play with me". I suggested taking a step closer
to her, and I was glad that she didn't take the step back from me.
She smiled again and said "I don't think so you will be able to bear
the loss when I'll win after beating you in the game".
Her beautiful face was free from all make up and showing tiny freckles
around her nose. I've always loved them, they make her look cute, but
she despises them and always cover them with concealer. They're so
tiny that if you aren't standing close to her you won't even notice
that they are there around her nose.
"Let's decide who'll win on the ground". I said moving back and
picking the ball from the ground.
She just silently stared at me without blinking and smiling. Her face
told me she must be recalling our memories in school ground where we
have played many times.
"Earth to Maddy". I said waving my hand in front of her face, and she
rolled her eyes at me.
"What is the prize?". She asked me.
I smiled at her amused.
"What about this if you win this game I will take you out on a
dinner?". I said making her raise her eyebrows at me.
"And if you'll win?". She asked me and I grind.
"If I'll win then you will spend this whole week with me". I said
stepping closer and staring in her hazel eyes which always looks
similar to Golden topaz.
"Deal". She said snapping me out and slapping my hand.
I grinned at her, and she took the step back then tied her hair up in
a ponytail.
Then just like that we were opposite to each other standing in the
fighting instance.
I ran forward with the ball in the opposite direction while she was on
my tail running with me.
She tried tackling the ball from under me but I didn't let her succeed
and kicked the ball in the net.
Then I turned towards her to her huffing like she's tired.
"You must've forgot how to play". I teased her making her glare at me.
Then she did something completely unexpected. She pulled the red
jumper over her head and threw it on the bleacher. I felt the breath
knocked out of me at the sight of her standing in only white fitted
tank top. Her cleavage was glistening with sweat making me gulp.
I was sure certain part of my body turned attentive at the sight of
something so sinfully glorious.
She looked so sexy that I just wanted to throw her on my lap and make
out with her on one of these bleachers.
I shook my head at the images of her and me making out. Her sweet lips
on mine smashing in sensual way.
What the hell am I thinking?
Her question bring me back from my passion filled thoughts.
"What? Tired already Brandon?". She asked me.
"No, let's start". I said picking the ball and throwing it in the air.
When it landed on the ground Madeline took it before I would have done
anything. Her sweat glistening figure was so distracting that this
time I was not able to concentrate on the ball.
My wandering eyes would always go to her bouncing breast as she jumped
and rolled the ball around her leg.
She was a pro in this trick. I had tried learning this trick in the
past but failed miserably.
I was so engrossed in staring at her and measuring her small waist
with my eyes that she kicked the ball and whooshed above my head
landing in the net behind me.
She grinned at me while I stared at her in astonishment.
Damn! She's still as good as before in this game.
"Did you forgot how I used to play?". She asked me with the silly
smile on her face.
I would have let her win against me if she will smile like this at every goal.
But then I thought not tonight sweetheart because I need to win to
spend a week with you.
"No I did not. I was just distracted". I said looking at her breast
which were just inch away from spilling out of that flimsy tank top.
She glanced down where my eyes were staring earlier and a pretty blush
graced her pale cheeks. Then she pulled her straps up making neckline
stretch back and hide her beautiful cleavage from my eyes.
I took the step closer to her and her eyes snapped at me.
"I was quite enjoying the view". I murmured in her hear and heard her
breath hitching.
Then I moved back and kicked the ball in the center.
"Get ready I'm going to beat your ass". I said throwing the ball again.
"Yeah, loser that won't be easy". She snickered running to take ball from me.
I twiddle the ball making it impossible for her to take the ball as I
ran towards my target.
She tried to push me but I have gained quite a weight in last six
years that it won't be easy for her to push past me and tackle the
ball.
Sorry sweetheart but I have to do this.
Sending the silent apology in my heart I kicked the ball in the net.
She grimaced at our score 2-1.
"Who's losing now?". I teased her.
"We still have one round to declare Who'll win". She said with the
determination.
I nodded my head and again kicked the ball.
We started running towards it like crazy. Now it was a real game and I
knew she will win if I didn't do anything to stop her so I kicked the
ball. I snatched it from her and ran with it towards my target, but
she came in between and took the ball back.
I calculated time and did something that I had never imagined doing in my life.
Cheating!
I tricked her by coming behind her and suddenly placing my hands
around her waist distracting her then I hit the ball with power.
But Madeline tried to stop ball, and we both collided with the force,
me falling down with her on top of me.
My back hit the ground and I groaned painfully. She was panting above
me, her soft breast was pressed on my chest increasing my heart beat
like a school boy.
Her beautiful face was glistening with sweat beads that ran from her
forehead and made its way to her cleavage.
I think something just stir inside me at our position.
She glanced at me with her those golden globes with worry and my heart
thud inside my chest faster.
I was sure at that moment she was going to hear it.
"Are you alright Brandon?". She asked me.
"No! I uh... yeah my head is hurt". I said groaning, and she tried
getting up from me.
I panicked, placing my arm around her waist I pulled her back, and she shrieked.
"Brandon what the hell are you doing?". She asked me.
"I'm quite comfortable in this position". I said making her cheeks
blossom with hot blush.
I smiled amused at her, but she did something which left my nerves in a frenzy.
She leaned forward specifically towards my ear with her fingers
running on my chest.
"You're such a jerk. Remove your hand before I'll kick you on your
balls". She whispered in my ear and I did remove my hand scared about
getting damage my family Jewel's.
She giggled at me and got up from the ground dusting herself.
I was still laying on the ground staring at her.
"c'mon get up! Do you want to spend rest of the night laying there".
She said irritated.
I smiled teasingly and replied "I'll gladly spend my night here if
you'll stay with me".
This time she rolled her eyes and commanded me "Shut up and get up
from the ground".
I got up from the ground and found the football inside the net.
"Well I guess you just loss the game against me". I said proudly.
"You cheated". She mumbled making her way to bleachers to pick her
discarded jumper.
"What? I didn't hear you". I said in amusement.
"Nothing, you cheat". She said in muffled voice while pulling her
jumper over her head.
"Don't be a sour loser princess". I said standing behind her.
She turned to me then narrowed her eyes. I put my hands up in a surrender.
"So that now I have won how do you suggest we work on my prize?". I
asked nervously.
"What do you want me to do?". She asked me walking towards the exit of
the ground and I followed her.
"I...I uhh want you spend a day with me and you can bring.... your
brother with you". I said making her freeze.
I cursed myself for being so stupid and blurting out about Bryan.
Inside I'm dying to meet him and at least to get to know him. But I
think I just lost my chance now for anything. She will go to find out
that I know something about Bryan and then everything will back to
square.
"Which brother... precisely?". She asked me with her pale face.
There was no going back if I lied now it won't turn out good.
"The kid... Bryan". I said with the difficulty.
"Why do you want me to bring him?". She asked me curiously.
"So your fiance won't think that our meeting is some reunion between
old lovers. You know he might feel jealous of me". I said feeling like
an utter fool.
"Oh. Sebastian doesn't get jealous". She said with the reassuring
smile that angered me little.
"Why? He should feel threatened. What if I steal this beautiful gem
from him". I said to her.
Her reassuring smile turned into a wide grin.
"He understands what you're to me Brandon". She mumbled.
"And what am I to you?". I asked her curiously taking a step closer to her.
"You don't know?". She asked me breathlessly.
"No". I said.
"Then until the end of this week I hope you'll find out". She said
staring at me like she wants me to understand something behind her
words.
Suddenly I looked at my car and noticed there was no car except mine
in the parking lot.
"Where is your car?". I asked looking around.
"It's at my place". She answered.
"Then how did you come here?". I asked baffled.
"Sebastian drove me here on the way to his penthouse". She said.
I clenched my fist feeling jealous that she was with him before coming to me.
But I relaxed myself and said "Oh. So you wouldn't mind if I'll drop
you at your house?".
"No I'll not mind at all". She replied with the shake of her head.
Then I made my way towards my car, and she trailed behind. When we
were both settled inside the car I started the engine and car roared
in life.
I drove in a silence thinking about why would Sebastian leave Madeline
here knowing that I've asked her to meet me?
Why didn't he feel jealous?
Does he think I'll not be able to steal her from him and her fall for me?
Then I parked outside the ice cream parlor where my dad used to bring
me and Noah whenever we came New York to visit my grandparents from my
father side.
"Why are we stopping here". She asked me looking around.
"I feel like eating ice cream". I said with the careless shrug.
She glared at me and I said "It's my treat".
Grumbling under her breath she followed me inside the ice cream parlor.
I ordered mint chocolate which is my dad's favorite flavor in ice cream.
I miss my dad and mom.
"Don't you want to order?". I asked Madeline.
She looked frustrated at me and I had no idea why.
"Fine. One scoop KitKat ice cream and vanilla ice cream with chocolate
syrup and cherries". She ordered.
I grind at her and took my cup of ice cream from the ice cream lady.
When Madeline order was done I said "Let's sit there".
She nodded, and we took the table at the corner.
I was eating my ice cream leisurely.
"U hmm". Madeline moaned in delightful taste of ice cream.
"Don't do that". I said.
"What?". She asked me in confusion.
"Don't moan. I'll be tempted to taste your ice cream flavor". I teased her.
"Oh but you can taste it. I won't mind". She said innocently picking
up her ice cream cup.
I shook my head and muttered "I'm sure you will mind".
"No, I'll not mind". She insisted.
"You will". I said.
"No, I will not!". She said irritation.
I leaned forward and licked her lips. I could taste the flavor of
cherries and chocolate syrup instantly mingling with mint chocolate.
She was frozen.
Then we heard the loud noise of someone clearing throat.
