Chapter 27
"Aren't you gonna get that, Miss Hotness? That could be the dickhe©d I was talking about." Blake
joked.
She let out a nervous laugh. "You are funny! Well I have to get inside now. Sorry again and thank you. "
she said .
She doesn't want him to hear her conversation with Derick.
He just nodded. "Just remember what I told you okay? You are for keeps Stacey." he touched her face
before he got out to open the door for her.
(Nick)
He is almost shaking with anger. Stacey is not answering his call. She has been inside the car with that
asshole for minutes now and he is about to lose control. After what he felt was an eternity, he saw the
dickhead got out of the car and went to the other side to open the passenger door for Stacey.
Don't you dare touch her you fucking bastard!! He uttered angrily as his body tensed.
He straightened his back and got on his big bike. He readied himself. If the asshole will touch any part
of Stacey's body, he will smack him. He has his helmet on so that wouldn't be a problem. They won't
see his face.
(Stacey)
She nodded when she heard Blake asked, "Do you have a key?"
" I don't want to awaken Amy and bother her sleep. I always bring my key with me. " she said with a
small smile.
He smiled back. He waited for her to get inside before he said goodbye and walked to his car.
When Blake left, that's when she decided to give Derick a call while still in the garage. And just like the
other day, he has a lot of missed calls. She let out a heavy sigh. She was about to call him when his
number flashed on the screen. He is calling. She swallowed before taking his call.
"H-Hello.." she answered in a little husky voice.
She heard his shallow breathing which made her bit the inside of her bottom lip. She knows that he is
angry because of what she texted him hours ago and her not being able to pick up his calls, made him
angrier.
"Go outside! I am behind the black van near the lamppost , four houses away! " he said in a gruff voice.
She managed to say a shaky okay. She carefully opened the gate then closed it again. She saw the
black van so she slowly walked to it. Derick is on his big bike bike but the engine is not running. He is in
a black leather jacket and he has his helmet on as usual. Through it, she can feel his eyes are on hers.
He turned his head behind him which is a sign that he wants her to ride on the big bike. She nodded. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
She feels relieved that she is wearing a pair of jeans. No need for her to change in case she was in a
skirt.
"Wrap your arms around me! Hold on tight!" he ordered in that croaky voice of his.
She rested her left cheek on his back before letting her arms go around him. She almost groaned when
she felt his six-pack through his shirt. She bit her lower lip as she inhales his pleasant musky smell.
She can't deny that she missed him so much.
It's her first time to ride on a big bike and she would probably be scared if she isn't with Derick. She
feels secure when she is with him. She doesn't know so much about these monsters on the road but
she is sure that this one cost a fortune. She wondered what his job is. He seems to have plenty of
money. The bracelet he gave her cost an arm and a leg too.
They went to a park which is 15 minutes away from her stepfather's house.
Derick switched off the engine and turned his head to her . "You can get off now. "
She did just that. She saw him take out something from his back pocket. When she had her back on
him, heput an eye mask on her.
(Nick)
He has a helmet on so Stacey can't see his face but he doesn't want her to see his frame and height.
He can't risk it. He took off his helmet after he made sure that she can't see a thing.
He clenched his teeth and narrowed his eyes when he saw her right wrist. "Why aren't you wearing
your bracelet?!"
He swallowed a bad word when Stacey ran the tip of her pink tongue on her lips to moisten them. "I
don't want to lose it so I don't wear it ever day.. ."
He couldn't help cursing. "Don't ever take it off! It's insured so don't worry if you lose it! Starting
tomorrow don't forget to wear it! Never leave your house without it around your wrist! Okay?" He tried
to control the anger in his voice. It's a good thing that he has to sound hoarse which prevents him from
shouting at her out of anger and jealousy.
He sighed in relief when she just nodded her head before saying an almost inaudible yes. He really
needs to simmer down . Her answer to his next question for her might make him act violently. He
inhaled then exhaled a few times before going nearer to her. He cupped her face with his hands.
"I read your text. You said you were with someone who used to woo you. I saw that the owner of the
bar where you sing took you home. So does that mean he courted you?" he asked through gritted
teeth. She must have felt that his hands tightened on her face. She put hers on top of his.
(Stacey)
She can sense that he is seething. She wants to evade his question because she feels a bit afraid of
him at this moment.
"I am sorry. I only said that to piss you because you weren't replying to my texts and I couldn't even call
you."
"Did he woo you?! Answer the fucking question!" he demanded in that throaty voice of his.
"T-That w-was many years ago. I just wanted to provoke you so you will reply to me." she admitted and
squeezed the back of his hands which are still framing her face. " I'm sorry."
All her annoyance disappeared. Now that she is with him, all she wants is for him to hold her. She
needs to feel his arms around her.
(Nick)
He sniffed her. His eyes like slits, he angrily asked, "Have you been drinking?!"
She just pouted. He couldn't help swearing again. It's bad enough that she was with that assh*le and
the thought of her being under the influence of alcohol while they were together, are all to much for him.
A lot of things are running inside his head again.
"DID HE TOUCH YOU??!" he asked through clenched teeth. His nostrils are flaring.
Stacey shook her head to say no. He removed his hand from her face and he stepped back to put a
little distance between them.
Cool it...--he told himself as he tried to breath in and out slowly.
Because of his jealousy, the real Nick Alcantara is surfacing again.
"Please Derick, accept my sorry. I was just irritated with you because you didn't text or call me back."
she said in her sweet voice.
He let out a heavy sigh. "I was angry with what you said. I wanted to cool off a bit before I talk to you
again."
"What did I say?" she asked . She sounds puzzled.
He sighed and went nearer to her again. He touched her hair and tuck a strand behind her left ear.
"Never use the F word to describe what we do.It's much deeper than that. Don't you feel it honey?" he
whispered.
(Stacey)
"I'm sorry. ." she said huskily.
She badly wants him to kiss her on the lips but she doesn't want to ask him directly or give him a sign.
"Honey, I know I don't have the right..but can I ask a favor?" she heard him asked.
She frowned slightly. "What favor?"
"I want you to stop seeing that assh*le!"
She bit her bottom lip. She wants to tease him and maybe if he gets more pissed, he would kiss her.
"I have to see him because I work in his bar." she tried hard to keep a straight face.
He didn't say anything. She can only hear his ragged breathing.
"Okay! If you do, I can't promise that I won't hurt him badly.." he threatened which made her knit her
brows.
Derick sounds serious and somehow she can feel that he is not joking. Now she is thinking if she
should continue teasing him to make him more jealous of Blake. it won't be fair to Blake if Derick will do
something bad at him just because of her.
"Okay. I'll try to stay away from him." she finally said.
She didn't hear him make a sound but she just waited patiently for his response. Then she felt him
move away from her which she didn't like. She wants him close to her not far.
"Derick?" she called his name and extended her arms. Her fingers touched his back.
"I said I am gonna try." she told him but she didn't feel any reaction from him .
It seems that he is still very much annoyed so she decided to make the first move . She stepped
forward and hugged him from behind. She felt him straightened his back.
(Nick)
He was taken aback. He was ready to take her hands off him when he heard her say.."I missed you. I
am really sorry."
He is still fuming but he can't suppress a smile when he heard what she said. It took all his willpower
not to turn around and wrap his arms around her delicious body and give her a kiss on the lips. But he
has gone this far because of his plans for them and he had risked a lot already. Last thing he wants is
to throw every thing away just because he can't control his desire to kiss or embrace her. Anyway he
feels that she is already softening to him so maybe a little more patience will not hurt. He stopped
himself from uttering an obscene word when her arms around him tightened.
"Derick? I really hope you will stop being angry. I don't like it when we bicker. We aren't a couple yet but
we seem to have been doing nothing else but argue." she said . He can feel her cheek on his back.
He sighed then he gently removed her arms wrapped around him. He turned to her. His hands are on
her arms to stop her from hugging him again.
She protested."Derick.."
"We have to really talk about us honey." he told her.
He has to give it a shot. Anyway if she will say no , he will go with Plan B. The bottom line is, he has to
let her realized that he is serious about what he wants to happen between the two of them.
She chewed her bottom lip which made her look more alluring. He heaved a sigh. He cupped her chin.
"I don't like you going out with other men although I don't have the right to stop you. Since we are not
officially a couple, you will do what you want even if it will anger me. Honey, I can't bear that anymore.
After I discovered how wrong I was in judging you,I told myself I want to make it up to you. I made my
intention clear that I will take full responsibility of what I did. I asked you to go to the next level with me
.I know you said you want to see me first before making a decision but I have explained why I don't
want you to see me yet. I know it's not easy for you and it's also difficult for me. But please trust me on
this honey. I have my own reasons which I promise will bring good results. I want nothing more but the
best for us. " he said throatily while he looks at her eyes which are hidden under the eye mask.
(Stacey)
She can feel the seriousness in his voice and she doesn't know what to say.
"Derick.." she just murmured his name again.
"Honey, will you be my official girlfriend or we stop meeting each other?" he asked her.
