Must Read: Forever And Always

Then slowly, I drifted into an unknown land and welcomed the darkness that enveloped my world.

I woke up feeling numb and funny. My head ached badly and my body was in pains. Early morning light rays streamed into the big purple coloured bedroom and hit my face slowly. ‘Where am I? Where is this place? What am I doing here?’ Different questions raced to and fro my mind. I looked round and saw white bed covers tucked around me like a cocoon.

I looked up and saw about three portrait pictures of a young man hung on the walls. “God! What am I doing in a stranger’s house?” I screamed.

I searched for my phone but it was no where to be found. My bag was also missing. I got down from the bed only to find out I was in my underwears. My shirt and trouser was carefully placed on the sofa adjacent to the bed.

‘What the hell is going on!’ I wanted to scream again but a sharp pain pricked one side of my head. I held my head in pains and fell on the bed with a loud thud.

“Hello. Are you okay?” My icy little heart melted as a young man who was most likely in his early thirties entered the room. His clean masculine scent wafted towards me. My heart faltered in my chest and it seemed to stop and miss a beat as those brown-slash-black eyes of his bored into mine. We exchanged glances for a long time. His presence sent shivers into my body He looked familiar. Yes very familiar but I just couldn’t place that face. He was very handsome and drop dead gorgeous.

The strong build of his chest down to his abdomen was apparently and proudly shown off by his white tight fitting top. His perfectly shaped nose sent a message of his nobility.

His lips were masculine, plump, red and s£nsu@l. His jawline was contoured perfectly emphasising the beauty of his face which might forever hunt me both in my sleep and reality. The first time I saw him, I knew I had admired him greatly.

But where did I see this demi-god again? I badly needed to remember.

“Hi. What am I doing here? What happened to me?” I demanded while he gave me a sarcastic grin. Gosh! His smile! His dentition! His narrow gap tooth!

“Calm down. Which question do you want me to answer first?” He said in a matter-of-fact tone.

“Answer both” I charged.

He tucked his hands in his shorts and answered;
“Well, you were attacked last night by robbers. I saw you lying down on the road almost lifeless. I decided to help you by bringing you to my home. There was no how I could locate yours.
You had nothing on you, not even your phone” he explained slowly. I nodded as I tried recalling what happened. I remembered being hit by something hard and then I passed out. I straightened myself up, his muscular chest met my face as he moved closer to me. Jeez! What a distracting obstruction!.

I tried my best to blot his masculinity out of my mind, breathed hard and spoke “Th.. Thank you” I babbled and tried covering myself with the blanket on the bed when I noticed his eyes deeply staring at my body. “Who.. Who removed my clothes?” I asked frankly.
