In Between by Rizonne Alexander (christmas read aloud .txt) 📖

I do” I said smiling. “So, since we are in a more quieter place, why don’t you tell me why you were out tonight?” He asked me. “Well, I got my heart broken by an asshole and I did not want to be home.” I replied. “I’m surprised, as far as what I know about you is that you never had love in your life.” He responded. “That is very much correct Chad, I never thought about love but then I met him, and he just left. With no notice, no phone call and no text.” I said with a heavy heart and started to feel emotional again about it. “I’m sorry to hear about what happened Amber Lily, I know he must have been special If you fell in love with him out of all the guys that you could have had over the years with your success.” He replied softly. I opened my eyes and looked at Chad, “You are really sweet” I said to him. “I know I am.” He responded with his gorgeous smile. “Do you have someone in your life?” I asked him and took my feet off his legs. “No, I have been single for about three years now.” He said and then drinking up his glass of wine. Once he said that, my hormones flared, and I stood up from the sofa. I walked to the kitchen to dim the lights and went back to him. I stood in front of him and for a second, I felt like I was about to do the most craziest thing ever but I just so badly want to let go of everything and start over. “Amber?” He said softly as pulled me down onto him. My legs parted and rest on the sides of his legs as I sat on top of him. “I know I’m going too fast but if you don’t want too?” I said in his ear. “The feeling is mutual.” He replied and smile at me. Our lips met and for the first time I felt free and I was not scared. His kiss pushed me over to the point where I started to take of his shirt and he zipped me down. He picked me up to let my dress fall down to the ground and I stood bare to him. I could see the rise in his pants and I knew that tonight I would be loosing my virginity to him. Yes, I’m a virgin and it is because I never found love. He undressed himself further and carried me upstairs. He placed me onto the bed and trailed his finger down my stomach to my wetness. He stroked in-between and I moaned with pleasure. He sucked on my nipples which made me grab onto his dirty blonde hair because I wanted him now. “Now.” I moaned in his ear. He spread my legs further and kneeled down in front of me. “Are you sure Amber Lily?” He asked softly. “I want you Chad, no one else.” I said. I slowly put his hardness in and a pain went through my stomach to the point where I shed a tear. He stopped and looked up at me. “Amber Lily? You’re a virgin?” He asked me in shock. “Yes, I am Chad.” I responded weakly. “But? Why me? Why now?” He asked confused. I sat up and kissed to ensure him that everything is okay. He kissed me back and slightly pushed him down again. He started again and slid it in, the pain returned but only lasted for a couple of seconds. Pleasure kicked in and we both moaned as he thrusted deeper and faster. I held on to the bed sheets as he lifted my ass up to go in further. “Fuck!” I shouted as I felt warm liquid down my legs and he responded with his release in side of. He fell down on top of me and we were both out of breath. He moved over to the side and placed me into his arms. For the first time I really felt at ease. I was breathing and we both drifted into a deep sleep. Amber’s POV – Chapter 10

I woke up with a bad headache, I felt someone next to me and my body went cold. I slowly turned around and realised it was dirty blond hair, Chad. He looked so sweet while he was asleep. I stood up and saw the sheets had some blood on it, I never thought that I would lose my virginity to a guy I just met but at the same time there is something about him that entices me. Yes, last night was partly an act out of heartbreak but Chad seems amazing. Just as I was going to walk to the bathroom Chad pulled me back. “Hey, where you going too? I still want to cuddle.” He said with his eyes closed still. His strong arms picked my body up and placed me right back into his arms. “Good Morning Mr Lofter.” I said to him, kissing his nose. He smiled, oh that gorgeous smile. “Good Morning Amber Lilly” he replied and kissing me back. “Can I get up now? We really do need to clean the sheets, I messed.” I said to him. “I know, I went to the bathroom during the night and saw, but relax, its only human.” He said to me holding me tighter. “Okay, that is really cute.” I said to him. “Well if you think that is cute, can I make you my girlfriend and I will show you things that is far more than cute?” He said to me and sitting up this time. He looked at me, he looked me straight in the eyes. “Would you be my girlfriend? I know we just met but my heart says that you the kind that will stick around forever.” He said to me. I felt like crying, I didn’t know that I would ever meet someone like Chad. Yes, Bastiaan was soft, he is highly over protective and full of passion but with Chad its more realistic. I leaned in and kissed Chad, “Yes I will be your girlfriend.” I said and got up from the bed to the bathroom. I squealed in the bathroom, my first boyfriend! “You made me the happiest guy today Amber Lily!” He shouted from the bedroom. I quickly brushed my teeth and took a quick shower. When I went back into the bedroom, Chad was not there but I could smell bacon. “Ah, my boyfriend can cook!” I said out loud to myself. I grabbed a jean, some sneakers and a polar neck. Today is Saturday and I don’t plan on doing anything except for awaiting Penny for an update on things. I sat on the bed and put on my shoes, there was a paper underneath my bedside lamp. I tied my laces and then took the paper. When I opened it, I saw it was a letter, from Bastiaan! My heart collapsed as I could not believe that all along he did leave a note! He did communicate with me, but I was so caught up in my own emotions and ran before I walked. I slowly opened the letter and read it, I shed tears as he declared his love for me and the fact that he was not sure how long he will be away. I slumbered onto my bed to try and catch my breath from the sobbing. Suddenly I heard my mom’s voice downstairs and I ran to the bathroom to clean myself up.  I did not want anybody to see that I was crying nor, do I want Chad to see it too. Once I was done I ran downstairs to which Chad was busy in the kitchen with nothing but a boxer shorts on! “Mom, uh hi, you’re early?” I said to her and trying to signal chad to put some damn clothes on. “Well is this the reason why you left me last night?” she asked smiling and pointing at him. “Mom, I can explain.” I said rubbing my temples. “No need too, he already explained.” She responded and then burst out in laughter which chad continued shortly after as well. “Alright guys, hahaha, funny. Chad, please excuse us? And make yourself decent. I’m sure my mother’s eyes are burning through those shorts.” I said sarcastically. “Well Mrs Crescent, it was really nice meeting you.” He said and then kissed me as he walked off towards the staircase. I felt a flush of embarrassment as he did it in front of my mother. “I really like him, he is so cute!” mother told me. I smiled. “I really like him too, I know we just met but he is so different.” I told her. “Indeed, he is, you should hold on to him.” She replied, “Well I don’t know for how long. I found a letter that Bastiaan left me. He practically declared his love for me.” I told her sighing and seating myself on a chair. “Oh, bugger him Amber! You need to stop this insane love story right now. You are seriously upsetting me!” She scolded at me but also keeping her voice down. “Mother, you make as if you know what I have been through or what I feel.” I responded. “I don’t care but all I know is that you have a really good guy upstairs and you should figure things out with him. You should at least try.” She said. “Yeah, I know, I know.” I replied. “I need to leave, I came early to say goodbye because I am flying back home.” She said. “Oh, so quick? What about dad?” I asked her. “I really do not know your fathers plans but I need to salvage what needs to be and keeps things afloat.” She replied. “Okay, will I see you soon?” I asked. “Maybe you and Chad can come stay with me during the summer holidays if you are not busy but right now my hands are really full, and I must get going. Amber I love you and you are grown, make the correct decision okay.” She said and hugged me goodbye. I walked her to the door and closed it as she jumped into her car and sped off. When I turned around Chad was coming down the stairs. “What’s wrong?” He asked me. “Oh, nothing babe, my mother just left and I’m not sure when I will see her again.” I said knowing that it was not the truth. “Don’t worry, you got me.” He said hugging me and giving me a kiss. “Mom said that if I’m not too busy we should come for a few days in the summer holidays.” I told him. “That’s sounds amazing. I could do with some sun.” He said smiling at me. Again, that gorgeous smile. “So, what are your plans for the day?” I asked him. “Well, I know its Saturday, but I need to go to my office. A lot of shit to do. and you?” He replied and asked me. “Probably the same, I’m waiting on my PA for an update. Things
