Expect The Unexpected

Chapter 37

Victoria’s Point of view.

Things seemed to get weirder and weirder by the day… no by the hour. I couldn’t quite wrap my head around everything that has happened in the past few months. I mean firstly, I was in no doubt in love with the person that I never thought I’d develop feelings for.  His mother had passed away. I couldn’t begin to imagine what kind of pain he must be feeling. I knew that by going with him to Manchester, I would be there to keep him company and help him through this difficult time.
 What made me feel far too excited about this is the fact that I was going alone with James. Oh the amount of extreme sexual scenarios that have crossed my mind in this short period of time is too damn high. But who was I kidding, I shouldn’t focus on the fact that I’d do anything to feel his lips on mine… and then on pretty much every inch of my body, instead I should focus on his mother and his wellbeing.
Secondly, I was seeing Aaron, and well, even if he was hot, I knew that what he and I had –endless love making with no real passion – it wouldn’t lead to anything. So I knew what I had to do, which was what I was about to do.

I knocked on his door and waited for him to get his ass to the door, after what seemed like…well far too long, he finally opened the door. He stood there; still shirtless, messy hair and a cheesy grin plastered on his face.
‘’Vicky babe’’ He spoke in an extremely irritating voice, why hadn’t I noticed that before? It was completely the opposite of James. He sounded like a try hard rapper, whereas James spoke softly and with passion. Every word that left his delicious lips sent a shiver down my spine; it was as if he was reciting an erotic novel.
‘’Are ya just going’ to stand there or what’’ Aaron’s voice seemed to become more irritating by the second.
‘’Yeah, um , ok this is not working out. So, that’s pretty much it. ‘’ I said it all too bluntly, but I didn’t care. The smug grin on Aaron’s face suddenly disappeared and the look of, what seemed like, annoyance and rejection crossed his face. I couldn’t help but feel smug.
‘’Oh you slut, don’t tell me you’re seeing that kid from your apartment’’ He spat the words out. Now I was the one raising my eyebrows, how the fuck did he know about that?

‘’It’s none of your business. ‘’
‘’Ah yeah fuck off will ye’’ He shut the door in my face and I could hear him swearing as I happily dance down the staircase.
Despite the fact that he called me a slut, told me to fuck off and called James a kid, telling Aaron that we were done didn’t seem so hard. In fact, I was actually far too happy and too excited to worry about a guy that, well, I fucked a few times.
I was more than glad when the image of me under Aaron was finally out of my head by the time I was back at my apartment block. I didn’t even bother going back into my place, instead I knocked on James’ door and waited. I had to keep excitement about going away together with him, under control.
The door opened and I was welcomed by a warm smile and loving eyes.

‘’How are you?’’ I asked as he stepped aside to let me walk in.
‘’I’m better, thank you’’ He whispered as he closed the door.
I turned around and he was looking at me with a very unreadable expression. I couldn’t open my mouth even if I wanted to. Suddenly my breathing increased, and the tension in the room seemed to rise. For a moment I thought the world had stopped spinning just to let James and I have this moment.  Whatever this ‘moment’ was, I didn’t want it to end.

‘’Thank you for everything’’ He spoke; I could barely hear him over my heart beating in my ears.
‘’I really appreciate you for being here for me’’ His voice was low and unbelievably sexy.
‘’James? Is everything all right?’’ An unfamiliar females voice came from somewhere in the apartment. Suddenly my heart dropped and the special bubble that James and I were in, burst.

‘’Oh, Liz’’ James suddenly turned around. I stepped aside to see who this ‘’Liz’’ was. My eyes met with a very petite looking girl; somehow she resembled a very young James. Before my mind could jump to stupid conclusions, I instantly knew that she was, in no doubt, related to him.
‘’Vicky this is Liz, she’s my little sister’’ James turned to look at me and smiled. I smiled back and turned to look at the girl. She resembled James so much. She had short dark hair and big round eyes. Her facial features were like James’ only feminine. She was tiny, much shorter than me. Although she wore a small smile on her lips I knew that she was hurting. I didn’t even know that James had a sister.
