26| Hard-on

He is such a maniac, an idiot, a coward, a big stupid reindeer. Ugh! Men like him should be living in the zoo. Yeah, that's where he belong. Just look at it. He spoke ill-mannered of her brother and he didn't bother apologizing. He prefer to rather stay holding a grudge than to let it go. He is so full of himself, so proud that he keeps his ego hanging on his shoulders. What type of man is he? The whole of last night was boring, she slept on her side of the bed while he slept on his. They created boundaries on the bed and it was so hard sleeping next to each other with a malice.

Of course his parents do suspect something wrong with them but they just play along whenever the Chadwick' are around them. They want their relationship to be private with no interference and they don't want anybody coming to counsel them.

Thinking he might come to set things up with her this morning, he obviously is as mean as ever. He tempted her again, sleeping next to her naked. She couldn't ask questions because they're having misunderstanding. He forgot to take his towel with him to the bathroom and he tried calling her name but when he realize that they're still having a fight, he walked out to get it himself.

Oh, did he had a congene? Because she peek her eyes over the book she was reading and saw him hard-on. Whoa, that's massive and huge. Good for him. He won't dare to touch her, right? She knew he wouldn't be able to stay that long without a woman and he won't dare cheat on her, right? Nice! She's loving the show of the torment. Let's see who's gonna give up lastly.

He is the one suffering not her. He is the one having a hard time dealing with his erection thing and fucking himself in the bathroom whenever he gets a hard-on and not her. If he had come to beg her nicely, she'd have granted him an opportunity to have anal sex with her but he is just to proud to let his guard down. Then, let him sort himself out.

Good to know she had save landing two days after. She'd be lying to herself if she said she never had good time living in the white house with the Chadwick' and a great honor with the president too. And Francesca? She haven't seen that bitch for a while now. In fact, she disappeared the following morning with her boyfriend after her first dinner date with the Chadwick'

It is so obvious she doesn't want to see her around and now that she is out of the mansion, she can come back. There is no possible way they'll ever become a thing as sister in-laws. She knew what's waiting for her in the future. Daily fights and big quarrels. Except Justin has another place to take them to after their wedding because there's no fucking way she'll share a roof with his sister.

And now, looking at the bunch of clothes she had left on the bed and on the floor in her room made her crazy and tired same time. She never allow the maids to clean her room for her. She does it herself. The only thing the maids does for her is to do her laundry and cook her choice of meal. Except for salmons because she doesn't eat fish or any aqua species.

"Argh!" She pushed all the clothes to the ground with anger. She's still under the influence of breaking things. How could he? He didn't even gave her a peck or kiss since this fight thing between them started. He automatically became different and she hated him.

She have a class in the next one hour, exam is coming up a week from now, her wedding is hanging around the corner – so many things in her head right now. And that crazy jerk just add his own problem to hers. Seriously, he needs a whip in the ass.

"That lunch date with the president and the first lady was a blast." Urumi came crashing on her bed. "Spectaculars."

Spectaculars indeed her ass. Not minding her at all, Priyanka picked up her clothes from the ground. And Urumi sat up wondering what happened to her.

"Are you alright, sweetie?" Still quiet? "Okay did something happened between you and Justin during the date?" Super quiet. "You really don't want to talk about it?"

Okay now that's it. Priyanka stood straight in her own height, holding clothes in both hands. "You really wanna know? Sorry, I can't tell you because it's personal."

Personal? "When did you become this mature? You always want to share everything with me –"

"This is my relationship matter, mom. Whatever happened between Justin and I, stays private. Thank you." She entered the walk-in closet.

Ow! She definitely knows that those two are in a fight or something. But it won't last anyway. Arguments are allowed to happen in relationships, it's normal. It's a thing every couple must experience.

Her eyes viewed the whole room. What a mess. She'll be getting married soon and she still haven't practice what they call cleanliness. What will she teach her kids in the future? The thought of having grandbabies so soon made her flush.

"I need a vintage wine." She walked out.

...…..

"Where the fuck is Priyanka?" He asked Rashid the moment he entered.

"Up in her room, Sir. May I call her?"

"Nevermind, the mom is here." He said, looking up at the beautiful woman in red Sari walking down the stairs.

The moment she saw him, her eyes lit up. "Ah, Justin, you're here. So good to see you again after five days off." She laughed, giving him a hug.

"I will say the same but I need to see my fiancée now." His words firm as he makes direct eye contact.

Suspecting something, Urumi took this as an opportunity to sneak into their privacy. "Did something happened between you and Priya? She has been acting weird since she came back from DC."

"Where the hell is she?" He whispered, getting impatient.

So he is likely to tally with Priyanka's statements too huh? They really don't want a third party involve in their issues.

"In her room, sorting herself out."

Great. He turn to his side, "Desmond, wait here."

The guy nodded, "Yes boss."

...….

She thought she was arranging the room but she was literally wrecking it the more. She looked at the shoe she had picked twenty times still somewhere it's not supposed to be. Ugh! This guy is seriously making her crazy. Head blank out of normal things that normal people are supposed to do. He really had a way of –

"Why haven't you been picking my calls and replying to my texts?" He shut the door behind him.

"Bastard!" She threw the shoes at him. Good thing he bend over to avoid the hit on time. "Looking at your face right now makes me think of murder."

"You totally had a way of making people go crazy, not just manipulating them but also controlling their brains and you won bringing me to your place this morning."

"I never did that because I detest talking with you and seeing you around me!"

Hell no, you're denying it. In fact, you're just deceiving yourself, Priyanka. You missed him every single second. All those times he didn't kiss you, all those times he didn't talk to you and now, your inside is swirling having him in your room this morning.

Unknowing to them that Urumi was eavesdropping at the door.

She hissed and focused on the room she was arranging. He wanted to sit on the bed but when he saw her lacy thongs and bras everywhere on the bed, he preferred standing.

"You seriously won't talk to me, will you?" Quiet. "You even left without telling me. I tried reaching you and you just ignored me, ghosting me like I don't exist."

Tired. Super tired. She crossed her arms. "You pushed the button first. You picked up an argument and expected me to come begging you for reconciliation? And then you purposely walk into bed two nights not wearing anything."

"I always go to bed naked. The other night I went with a boxer was because I never wanted to scare you off."

"But you did." She snapped. "Asking me to give you a towel in the bathroom and then you intentionally pulled me in to see your dick. That was childish, Justin."

"You are childish, Priyanka." He stated firmly. "You need to grow up in this relationship. You better know now that we have a long way to go especially..... sex because we will be having more of that."

"Ah sex," She laughed heavenwards and became serious again. "Does it hurt you in the process of getting an hard-on with nobody to share it with?"

They are seriously not gonna talk about the main shit that led to their misunderstanding. About the text Purab sent.

His lips pressed together, "Don't push me. It hasn't been easy for me, sleeping next to you on that bed without getting touched."

She laughed nastily, clapping her hands softly. "What a torture. As far as am concerned, this body will be mine until we're married and…." She took off her underwear and threw it to his face, "You can keep that with you every night or maybe when you get horny."

He held the blue lacy thong in his palm tightly and codedly tuck it into his pocket. When she began to take off her dress, he turned around. "This is a temptation. Stop doing it, am human and blood flows in my veins not water."

"What?" She mocked him. Obviously liking the payback torture. "Don't you want to see me pants down? Come on, tell me if am pretty or not." When he didn't say anything, she snapped. "Turn around and compliment my body, coward because you started it first."

He gathered the little urge he has to look at her, though his younger self underneath him is trying to wake up but he's trying to cool it down.

He gulped down, sweating. She is so beautiful from head to toes. If she was some kinda slut, he'd have pounced on her and eat her up to his satisfaction. But she is not someone else. She is his princess and he would do everything in his power to prove to her that he is not a maniac or a pervert.  

When she sat on the floor and spread her legs wider, he shut his eyes up. "Priyanka, please stop. I can't take it any further."

"You can't?" She faked a sad baby look. "Or you just want to get inside me right now."

She's too hard to resist. Too hard to flee from and too hard to rebuke. "I won't break my promise of not touching you before our wedding."

"Come on, Justin. Wedding is a week from now and I am the one who set the rules of abstaining from sex, now am giving you my permission to touch me."

"Am not doing it." His lips trembling, his eyes still closed.

"Are you denying me of our duty? What has come over you? You suddenly changed." She played with her hair. "Your little self is upstanding already. I can see it poke underneath your pants. Come on, it's from my own free will." She's lying. Apart from the fact that it's payback, she's also testing him.

When he didn't reciprocate, she stood up and wrap herself with a towel. "Fine! You can look now, am not naked."

He opened one eye and saw her in a white towel. He looked down at himself, his younger self was still upright. He covered it with his hands, feeling ashamed and embarrassed. She ignored him, giving him time to sort himself out while she went to the water dispenser to give him a glass of chilled water. He pushed the clothes aside, not carrying if they were underwear or not. He sat at the edge of the bed, shivering like he had a cold.

"You're surely passing through a lot right now. Here, have this. It'll help."

He took it and drank a little of it. "Thanks."

She felt bad all of a sudden. Making him go through that tough lane wasn't easy. She sat beside him. "Am sorry I was crazy. I never meant any of that. And I was just testing you to see if truly you're a changed man and I saw it all. You are totally different from how you used to be with women."

He nodded, still not saying anything with his head down.

She paused for a while. "Is it still up?"

"Huh?"

"The hard-on thing….?"

Still embarrassed about the question, he doesn't know how to answer it. "I have to go now." He stood up and she saw that his hard-on has dissipated.

"Uh, so soon?" She stood up. "I have a practical class, do you mind dropping me off –" His phone interrupted.

"Sorry, I have to go now. Works waiting for me in the office." He kissed her forehead and walked out answering the phone call. He almost bumped into Urumi on his way out and she grinned, nodding her head when he waved 'Bye'

Priyanka slumped on the bed, cursing herself for being too harsh on him. Maybe if she had taken things easier, he wouldn't have left by now no matter the phone call excuse. She needs to learn how to be –

"How was it? Did you two makeout?"

She sat up with a strange look, "Mom?"
