《Safe Haven》Chapter Twenty Two
Advertisement
The girls and I say goodbye to Scott and get in the elevator after we left Elena's. Daisy gets off on her floor and we get out on ours.
"Good night, Allie." Jess wiggles her eyebrows and walks towards her room.
I roll my eyes, look at Jamie and we both smile.
"Can we talk?" I ask.
"Of course."
"Let's go to my room."
"Ok."
We walk down the hall and get inside my bedroom. After I close the door I turn to Jamie and see she has a weird look on her face.
"What's wrong?" I walk towards her.
"Is everything ok?" Her voice is small and I frown.
"Of course it is. Why wouldn't it be?"
"I don't know." She sighs and sits on my bed. "I thought maybe you regret the kiss or something..."
"What? Jamie! Of course I don't regret it!" I sit next to her and grab her hands. "On the contrary, I really liked it." I smile and hold her tighter. "Please don't doubt us."
"I don't, it's just... this is still weird." She chuckles.
"That's kind of what I wanted to talk about." I get off the bed and go towards my desk to lean against it. "What is this?" I motion between us.
"What do you want this to be?"
"Don't throw the question back at me. I'm asking you."
"Allie, you're the one that's coming out of a complicated relationship. I'll do this however you want it." She pauses. "That is, if you even want to do this."
"I do!" I say quickly. "I really do, but I don't know what to do or how to act around you. I mean... are we together?" I huff. "Are we figuring this out? Or are we doing it, but taking it slow?" I plop down on the bed. "I'm really confused."

"What do you want to do?" She takes my hand. "Don't overthink it."
"I wanna do this. Us. I really do. Maybe not go headfirst, but still do it." I turn do face her. "I wanna be with you."
She smiles and squeezes my hand. "Me too. Then let's do it. No labels, but still together. We'll figure this out as we go, but there's no need to hold back. If you want to hold hands, then do it. Hug? Go for it. Full make out session in the middle of the campus? I won't stop you."
I laugh and nudge her. "What about a kiss? You ok with that?" I say softly.
"I'm not opposed to it." She pulls me in and her lips meet mine.
My hands tangle in her hair and pull her even closer. The kiss gets hungrier and now I'm fully straddling her. When things start to escalate she pulls back and I whine.
"Why did you stop?"
She giggles. "We just said that we're not rushing things."
"Whoever said that is insane." I go in for another kiss, but this time it's slow and sweet.
She gives me little pecks as she distances herself a bit.
"Let's not get ahead of ourselves." She brushes my hair and puts a strand behind my ear. "I don't want you to feel pressured or rushed." I start to complain but she cuts me off. "I know you may feel like you're ok right now, but I don't want you to look at us and resent something. I wanna do this right."
I smile and cup her cheek with my hand. "You're amazing, did you know that?"
"I've been told a few times." She giggles. "Now, let me go back to my room before Jess gets too suspicious." She tries to get me off of her.

"If that's the problem, I'm glad to inform you that she already knows. That's why we took so long to get to Elena's." I rest my arms on her shoulders.
"I knew you didn't forget your wallet!" I laugh at her accusation. "How did she know?"
"Beats me. She said she's 'not blind', whatever that means."
"I think she might've known I was into you. I thought it wasn't that obvious, but she's my roommate, so... But I still should go."
"Fine." I sit on my bed and she gets up. She starts walking away and I pull her back to me. "Can I at least get a good night kiss?"
She leans in for a quick kiss and soon she's walking out my door.
I fall on my back and smile. Today's been crazy. At first I was freaking out because Jamie wasn't talking to me. Then I was in her room telling her I liked her too and we kissed. Now we're together. I can't help the grin on my face. I'm happy. Really happy.

A Beautiful Catastrophe
“Do you have regrets in life? As for me, of course I do. Lots of them in fact—my short life span, wasted youth, unfulfilled potential, and worse, no love life. If you’re given a chance to live once more, will you take it? You bet I will! And this time… I’ll make sure to do all the things I want! Live my dreams and fulfill my potential! This time… I’ll make sure to be happy—and maybe, fall in love too.” - Senara Lee Synopsis: “You are the author of your life. It is your choice to either fill it with joy or tragedy.” A dying woman reminisces on her short life and comes to regret not doing the things she likes—always sacrificing her own happiness for her family. On her deathbed, she whispers her wishes to a friend. “If only I could go back in time… I’ll make sure to live my life for my sake and not somebody else’s.” Little did she know that her impossible wish would come true with the help of a mysterious woman. And in her second chance at life, she meets a certain problematic person… “Kaiden Ma.” Both the goal and envy of many men around the world, this young and handsome genius, who is also the heir to “Red Dragon Holdings”, has a little problem. One—he is way too grumpy; and two—he is mysophobic. With his family pushing him in a relationship, the problem escalated. For how can he possibly be in a relationship if he can’t even touch anyone? Due to this, he is forced to look for a suitable “pretend” partner. “Senara Lee. I’d like to offer you a deal.” “Hm? A deal? What deal?” “I need a fake girlfriend and you’re the only one who’s trustworthy enough to assume the position. Be my girlfriend for a year and I’ll make one of your books into a movie.” “For real?! You bet I’m in! Anything for my babies!” (babies—she’s referring to her books, yes, she calls them her babies). And so, their hilarious and catastrophic game begins… Well, at least until the “Guardians of Fate” comes in. ============ FOLLOW ME and add me to your FAVOURITES if you like the story and leave me a review! ~ Update Schedule: 1 chapter daily ~ ============ FOLLOW ME ON: Facebook Page: Macy_Bae Instagram: author_macy_bae Youtube: Macy_Bae Spotify: Macy Bae Commissioned Cover done by @cyuuri21 You can follow here on Instagram by searching her username

"I don't believe it." a low inhumane voice whispered. I have to look up to meet his gaze. Is he a new bully? Haven't seen him before."What is your name?" He's against the light but his eyes were like sapphires glowing in the night. Curious."Your name." I felt some weird tone emanating from his voice. Too demanding... too powerful."Uh..." my name?

He remarked letting go of me and exiting."Wow." My only comment. That's really a new way to introduce yourself and rejecting people. I took a sip of my drink."But that's really uselss." I smiled leaving the room.If you are born missing something, will you ever stop looking for that something? Try to fill what is gone? Won't you continue on living?

"I have never done this before." he whispered while cupping her face. "Me too" she said looking at his eyes. "What? You... You have... I thought..." he stammered. Her eyes widened in realization of what he could have thought about her. "Don't tell me you also believed in the rumors our office talking about." she chided at him. "I... I am sorry. It didn't matter to me. And it doesn't matter what your past was. So I didn't take into consideration of other possible ways." he tried to explain his blunder mistake of touching her nerve.
