Avery's pov "Hey you forgot something!" Xaden shouted from the kitchen, his head just popping up from the opened fridge.
My rushing feet slowed until I stopped behind the kitchen island, leaning my hand on the surface to hold myself from tripping over because of my abrupt halt. "What?" My brows furrowed as he went back to digging in the fridge.
pulls out the uncut pineapple and wiggled it with a mischievous smile. “This. There's an extra in the fridge if you want it- He ducked as Xade cbehindand flung one of the kitchen utensils at his face. It crashes in between the milk and cheese. "Stop teasing my girl man. And don't you have something to do? Like leave?" Xade's hand comes around my middle and his chin drops on my shoulder gently. He squeezed my waist and like a magnet, I leaned into him until we are glued together. He sighs on top of my head, planting a kiss.
Xaden straightens, lifting both his hands up in surrender, one hand still hold the pineapple. "I will. When you two givepeace to sleep at night," he rolled his eyes playfully as he push the pineapple back into the fridge.
"I know you two are like in your honeymoon phase right now, but do you mind giving this old guy speace and stop humping like bunnies for hours? I barely caught a wink of sleep last night and the night before that," he turn to send a wink my way. "You got a good set of lungs on you V." I flushed furiously, my cheeks extremely hot I peeled out of Xade's arms, needing to escape this embarrassing situation. "I'm late, we should head out "I told Xade over my shoulder who's grasping for my hips to return to him.

in perhaps sleeping beside Xade was a bad idea seeing as we do more of tangling the sheets than sleeping when necessary.
"I'll see you later Xaden!" I said over my shoulder as my fingers wrap around the handle to pry the door open. "Might not little V." he hollered, rummaging through a set of pans I turn to face him confused "Today I'm heading back "His forehead smacked against the cupboard and he hisses out the word f*ck "So soon?" He nods, rubbing the area he had hurt "Yeah got swork to do and my little brother needs his space so he can keep humping you every chance he gets I'm getting too old to hear those sounds at night V" lle. snorted as he joked Xade shoots him a hard glare while I frowned I'll miss him I never get to see him much since we're now so far from each other But he's always been our big brother and protector Ignoring his joke I rush over to him to surprise him with a hug "I guess I'll see you "When you'll need me." he said softly as he wrap his arms aroundto givea warm protective hug "In the meantget a degree and try to not die from exhaustion from being pounded every single minute" choked on a surprised embarrassed sound now regretting I hugged him in the first place I should have known he'd turn this serious moment into a joking one. I move out of his arms and smacked him.
"Jesus girl." he hissed, rubbing his chest arca. "My brother must have shared his abilities with you- "Let's head out baby, don't want to be late." Xade cuts in, sending Xaden a sharp death stare. I nodded, telling Xaden good bye and flushing when he promisedhe'll leave the pineapple in the fridge. forwhenever I'll need it.
As Xade and I head on out, half way down the corridor he suddenly makessqueak in surprise when he liftsup and holdsin his arms. I quickly wrap my legs and arms around him like a monkey on a branch.
"Xade!" I scowled even though I made no effort to get down from his arms. His hand cunder my butt and squeeze. "I car k." He nods. "I know, but I won't see you in a few hours and I need to imprint you in my mind smore." He kissed my temple and I am too gushy in his arms to protest once more and demand him to putdown.
So even though we passed a few onlookers, I didn't care as I let him carryto his vehicle like a child. When he droppedoff on the campus, he was reluctant to remove his lips from mine.
I giggled, detaching my lips from his and wiped off sof the gloss I had manage to smear on his lips. “I'll see you later." Xade had classes later on so it was unlikely that we cross paths again until we both were home. Home. Being with him always felt like home. He was my home.
My heart melted when I saw his pout and his sad gaze. “I don't like it when I part from you." He breathed with a bit of frustration in his tone.
O I smiled "Since when have you becso clingy?" I joked, unable to melt by just the look of pure fondness he gave"I've always been when it comes to you," he pointed out truthfully, leaning forward and kissed the tip of my nose. "I just never knew it was possible to beceven more." lis admission madelaugh.
He didn't lie, he was always clingy, but so was 1. We never wanted to part from each other, always glued to the hip unless for classes and well. his dates and mine with Kyan.
"Textwhen you get to your class safely, okay?" He whispered, givinganother kiss on my nose and then eyelids which causeto swat at his face and giggle
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was not odd of him to tellto text him when I get to class since.
we've always done this. But this time, el it feels different that I know he was my boyfriend. I grinned, my heart fluttering when he blew kiss and honked before driving off slowly.
As I watch his vehicle disappear. I can't help but feel a little nervous to walk into the campus alone. This ve thad no one, not Melissa and not Kyan to keepcompany when Xade wasn't here. It also didn't help that I was the talk of the campus. With a sigh, I clutched my book bag and began walking to the entrance. But halfway my phone pings and thinking it was Xade being impatient to know if I had gotten to class on tor not, I pulled it out of my pocket. The text that glint evilly on the screen made my stomach churn and I swallowed.Exclusive Kyan: You forgot your chain in my room the last tyou got here. Cpick it up in ten minutes or it's going in the trash.
