Chapter 8: Revenge

I head back to Heather's room, I saw them all sitting, chatting, laughing, he stared me in the eyes, then looked away, like he was challenging me if i'd say anything, I turn my back on him, get my pijamas and head out.

I changed my mind, I don't want her friends, I can make new friends myself but right now I'm going to watch my favourite serie and see what's going to happen with my lover.

After some time, I can hear the stars shimmering in the sky, they myst have gone to sleep, it's like 4 am, one more episode then i head to bed, I said that to myself like four times now.

I then tried to get some sleep, but couldn't so I went to get some water and sit on the balcony to clear my thoughts, watching the stars standing there in the middle of the empty space, and I think to myself, these stars keep shining there even though they are always alone and in the dark. I wish i was a star.

Sometimes people need help to light their own stars so they can see the road not to light up their forest on fire, fire is not the solution for light.

Maybe I was too hard on him, I hope I can forgive him one day I want this pain to disappear from my heart. I just need one proof that he has really changed and I can finally get this weight off my chest.

The next day I wake up, they were already having breakfast, I took a shower, changed my clothes, made some frappuccino and went to sit on the balcony to prepare myself for the day.

Unfortunately my morning get ruined the minute he stepped on the balcony.

"Hey, we're going to the beach all of us, wanna join?" this was his way to apologise for the threat of yesterday

"No, thank you for ruining my morning with your presence" he sits on the armchair mext to me

"Darling, I am the light in every girls morning, just look at my face you'll cheer up" and he wincked at me, I roll my eyes at him, even if he is an egocentric bitch, he is actually hot, but appearances are not everything, here is an example in front of you.

"C'mon, go get ready we're leaving in an hour" and he left. I thought why not, it's better than sitting here doing nothing, let's get some tan.

We arrived and he get his shirt off and damn boi I took a deep breath and I was about to let out a tiny scream, he looked at me as if he wanted to see my reaction at this view, and i think he noticed cause he smiled at me, but i ignored him and continued reading my book.

Just so you know, why i did that reacrion at his body, let me describe it to you, his hair jet black, so black it shimers, green eyes, the shade of a maple leaf in the summer sun. Tanned skin, but naturally not fake tan or sun tan. Sharp, exotic, symmetrical facial features, and a jawline thicker than a knife.

I didn't forgot the best for the last, his body. Perfectly sculptured abs, without touching them i can feel his torso as hard as a rock, he got into the water pulled his head back and his hair followed his lead, droplets of water sliding down his muscular torso, he has every reason to be so full of himself, i mean he is so perfectly shaped. I then decided to get into the water, I was just wearing a basil green bikini, I feel really insecure about my body, I feel like everyone is about to stare at me and laugh, but i tend to keep those thoughts aside or i will never go to the beach again.

And then it happens, he looked at me scans me from toe to top he made me anxious and he smiled, i guess his smile reassured me a bit in a way, like if my body is not that bad and i should stop worry, cause i tried a lot to lose some weight and get in shape. I got wet and then continued to read my book, he comes out of the water dries his hair standing next to me.

"Hey! Stop drying yourself on me and my book" he approached even more and started shaking his head above me.

"Are you insane? What was that for, I am all wet now are you satisfied?"

He pushes my legs off the longchair and sits next to me "What should I call u now, you no longer a panda bear, so it is not logical anymore, what about hourglass nah wait, tigress?"

I look him dead in the eyes "And why would you call me that? I have a name you know maybe you can use it?"

"Hah" he chuckles "I was hoping you would ask, you see, it's cause now your body is curved like an hourglass, and you are strong and determined like a tiger".

"Well, I'd prefer you calling me by my name, but if you insist, tigress is better cause Millie in latin means strength, determination"

"Like a tiger" we both said in the same time.

"Tigress it is" smiling gently.

The day went better than i expected and it was about to get better, he was standing near to the pool talking and flirting with some girls, when I walk up to him and said "Hey, Tyler your boyfriend is waiting for you in the pool, go join him" i can see the reaction on his face, it was hilarious, the girls escaped from him as fast as possible, he was about to face me or insult me for what i just did, when i pushed him in the water, he came out smirked at me and said "Good one, Tigress."

I guess that is my revenge, I am not the type of person who is so evil to get his revenge, I can't go too further, as long as I am satisfied I don't need more, and making the tyler ashamed is my biggest satisfaction, even though he did so much to me, I am not like him, and I can never be, and revenge isn't always the answer cause for me it's hard to watch someone hurting.

I feel sorry for him, while it should be the opposite, maybe he was having a hard time, and that is his way of dealing with his problems.

I hope, I really hope he has changed.
