KISSES

Aliya's eyes widened in surprise when she felt Skyler's tongue pry her lips open and more liquid entered her mouth.

Aliya couldn't move as she tried to register what was going on, Aliya took in all the liquid in her mouth and they went down to her throat.

Aliya was able to at least taste a little and when she did she noticed that it was drugs and her eyes widened when she realized what he was doing.

Skyler continued with his task and when he noticed that she had accepted the first he distanced himself from her and then asked.

"Did u smell it?" He asked as he looked at her.

Aliya who was still speechless couldn't say anything and just shook her head in response to his words. And seeing her reply she saw him head back to the bed.

Truth was she didn't smell it, she could barely taste it, his method seem to work.

Aliya was about to go meet him on the bed but she saw him approach her again with his mouth filled and her brows drew in confusion.

Before Aliya could even ask he had already kissed her, unlike the first time, Aliya willingly opened her lips for him to get free entry.

Aliya took every drop of the liquid without question and when he pulled away.

Aliya's face was flustered as she looked at him with her eyes asking the obvious question that her mouth couldn't say.

"That's all" Skyler replied to her question as he used his fingers to brush her swollen lips.

"I'm sorry" He said as he retreated his hand.

Aliya could see the guilty expression on his face as he retreated his hand.

"You didn't hurt me this time" Aliya said as she tried to lift his mood but the man didn't hear any of it.

He then looked at her swollen lips again and Aliya then understood what he was talking about.

She tried to look at it but it was difficult so instead she used her tongue to rub the spot and then she could feel the swell.

"It's not your fault, I'm the one who needs drugs" Aliya said as she looked up at him but he was no longer there. She looked up ahead and noticed that he was on the bed gathering the drugs.

Aliya could see that he was trying not to get in contact with her and though it hurts she wasn't going to force herself on him.

Aliya sighed and then she headed to the bed, but not before changing. She was now wearing a long joggers that was good for sleeping. Aliya made sure not to show any skin and try as much as possible not to make it difficult for him.

Since he didn't want to touch her then she wasn't going to force him.

With that thought in mind Aliya went to sleep on her side of the bed but she couldn't as her mind began to wonder off to where Skyler was. Minutes passed and he still didn't return back to the room. It made her worry as to what had happened to him.

An hour passed and he still didn't return back to the room, Aliya then began to think of excuses she could give if he did catch her looking for him and right on time she felt something in her stomach grumbling. she then realized that she hadn't eaten anything.

Aliya wasn't fond of late night meals but that didn't mean that she was willing to sleep with a grumbling buddy in there. And besides this was a good excuse why she was living the room.

Aliya stood up from the bed and headed outside, she entered the kitchen. All the while looking for him

The apartment was dark but Aliya was able to see clearly and it didn't take long for her to find her way to the kitchen.

But when she entered someone was already in there. Aliya could smell the good aroma coming from whatever the person was cooking and the fact that she hadn't eaten anything good since morning made it difficult for her to resist.

Aliya followed the delicious aroma into the kitchen and she saw some already prepared dish on the kitchen table. And he was there arranging everything like it was his job. Aliya was relieved to see him there but she didn't show it.

Skyler who seem to have noticed her presence turned to her side and then a small smile carved on his lips.

"I was going to call you...but you are already hear" She heard his voice as he walked towards her but he still stopped halfway.

Aliya who noticed the distance he was giving her didn't bother to comment or say anything about it.

"Let's eat" Skyler said as he made way for her but Aliya didn't respond to him.

Aliya opened the fridge and then brought out what she needed to cook her own dish. She didn't want to eat of what he had cooked.

Skyler just watched her with his eyes calm. He was no longer smiling as his gaze focussed on what she was doing.

"What are you doing?" He asked as he continued to watch and even though he could tell that she wanted to cook he still asked.

"I believe you have eyes Mr Walker" Aliya replied to his question as she then began to mix. The truth was that Aliya couldn't cook, that was the one thing she was bad at. She could bake but when it comes to cooking she was the worst.

Aliya scanned the fridge and then brought out eggs, she then added them to her mix and continued with her task.

Within minutes Aliya was done with her pancakes, she then added a little caramel at the top.

Skyler couldn't do anything as he watched in silence, he had already prepared a whole dish on the table for the both of them and here she was making pancakes. He could only watch as she took her pancakes and headed to the couch without sparing a glance at him.
