Chapter 56

**Alexia's POV**

"Why did you left me?" Riley asked walking close to me but couldn't maintain her balance and was about to fall when I reached for her.

"You're drunk!"."Yeah, I went to bar before coming here. Any problem?" she said angrily holding on to me for support.

"I'll deal with that later but first let's get you inside" I said and walked her in. But she pushed me against the wall. "Riley, what are you doing?"

"Who do you think you are?" Riley said angrily. "Who do you think you are to come and play with my heart whenever you want? Who gave you the right to hurt me?"

Her grip on me tightened but I cupped her cheek with one hand and said "I'm sorry. I promise I won't hurt you again"

"You… You're not leaving. I'm not going to let you leave, do you understand? I won't let you go. You can't leave me"

"Okay, I won't leave you" I said to calm her down. At this her eyes softened a bit and she let go of me. I took her to the couch and I help her to sit on it.

I was about to go to get her some water when she grabbed my wrist and pulled me on the couch "Ah…" I shrieked and in a moment she was on top of me. She has got quite some reflexes for a drunk person "Riley, what are you doing?" I asked cautiously. "You're such a bitch" she said frowning. I chuckled she's cursing even when she's drunk. "Okay, but now get off of me" I said trying to get up, but she didn't let me. She brushed a strand of hair away from my face and said "I hate you. I hate you so much. You were going to leave me again" at this I got still. There were tears in her eyes.

Her eyes showed how much hurt she was. "I hate you so much but…but I love you even more" she said smiling from above but a tear fell from her eyes on my cheek. And she passed out.

I stayed laying there, processing her words.

**Riley's POV**

I woke with what can be called the world's worst handover. Ugh! It hurts like a bitch. I looked at my surroundings and couldn't recognize a thing.

The room was painted grey and black and all of the furniture in the room was also black. There was a queen sized bed in the middle and a balcony in the room.

Looks like, I had a one night stand again.

Whoever's room it is I like there taste. I got out of bed and noticed that I was completely dressed, strange. I got out of bedroom and noticed it was on the second floor. So I went downstairs looking around trying to find someone.

I turned the corner and collided with someone. Sending both of us to the floor. "Uff.." she said. I looked at her face and I was shocked to see her.

"Alexia?"  I said trying to make a sense of this situation. "Yeah, it's me. But will you get up" she said annoyed.

"Alexia you're on top off me"I said her face flushed a little and she got up. I smiled at this but didn't say anything else.

I looked around realizing I need to figure out how I got here. "Umm…Alexia" I said getting her attention she looked at me and I asked "Why am I here?"

"That's what I should be asking. Do you know how much drunk you were last night? And you drove here. Do you even know how much risky it was? Who told you to drink this much." She stated angrily.

That struck a nerve. I didn't said anything. I don't know what does one do in this type of situation. She sighed and asked "How is your headache?". At this I realized my head was killing me "It's bad can I get some Aspirin?" I asked. She nodded and handed me some along with a glass of milkshake

We stayed silent the whole time. I finished the milkshake and put the glass on the counter.

After that we went out of kitchen and to the living room. It was so much awkward I didn't knew what I was doing there or how should I behave.

All of a sudden, my phone ringed in my pocket. I looked at the screen, it was Alice. I sighed picking it up and as soon as it went close to my ear Alice shouted "Where the hell are you?"

"I'll talk to you later" I said and put the phone in my pocket. "I should get going" I said and she nodded.

I was about to leave when I turned around and asked " Can I ask you something?"

"Sure"

"Why did you resign?". She looked at me for a few minutes and then answered "There was no point for me to stay there"

"What do you mean there was no point? It's not like you joined the hospital because of me." I said.

"I didn't…" She trailed off. I waited for her to continue but she didn't. I was about to leave when she said "But I love you and seeing you with someone. Seeing you touching someone like I want you to touch me and not being able to do anything about it was too much for me. I can't do it"

"Okay, then what about Iris? Aren't you worried about her anymore? How will she react when she'll find about all of this? Cuz I'm pretty sure you haven't told her anything till now"

"She knows….She knows about us" she said. "You told her?" I asked not believing.

"No, I didn't. Aurora did"

"And how did she react? I mean how did Iris take it?"

"She was angry at first that I didn't tell her. But then she said she has no problem with me being with you" she said looking around.

"So, you only came to me because you got Iris's approval?" I asked not angrily or sarcastically, just simply trying to make sense of things.

"No, it's not that. You've to understand Riley I care about Iris way too much deeply and her being in love with you made things way too much difficult for me" she said looking at me.

"Why did you leave back then?" I asked. She thought for a few seconds and said "Because Iris's parents got in an accident and died and I became the legal guardian of Iris"

"But you didn't have to end things with me, then why did you do it?"  I asked trying to understand her.

"Because….I was afraid. Afraid of how much I loved you and how much your love was changing me. I was afraid of the power you had over me just because I loved you so…"

I interrupted her and said "So, you thought it's best to run away than face things"

She looked at me for a split second and nodded.

"What about now?" I asked. "Are you not afraid anymore?"

She got up from where she was sitting, came closer to me and cupped my cheeks "No, I'm not. I want to see how far I can go with you and how much you change me. I want to experience the love which goes beyond all the limits with you" she said looking in my eyes her face was just inches away from mine.

Her gaze went to my lips and mine to hers.Something inside me snapped and I  captured her lips with mine. She returned the kiss with equal force. The kiss was full of passion and emotions

I swiped my Tongue against her bottom lip and she immediately opened her mouth to let me in.

She moaned as our tongues rubbed together and that turned me on. We kept kissing until we were breathless. We pulled apart and rested our foreheads together "I love you" she said "I love you too" I said smiling. I kissed her cheek down to her jaw and then her neck. I sucked beneath her earlobe and she moaned. I grabbed the hem of her shirt taking it over her head putting it aside.

We continued to kiss. We stopped for a second and I got breathless by seeing the lust in her eyes.

I ran my hands over her body and she closed her eyes. I unhooked her bra and she threw it to the side. I started kissing down her stomach but when I reached near her trouser. I looked at her and found her already looking at me.

I took off her trouser slowly keeping eye contact. I ran a hand on her panties and she moaned.

I was about to take them off too but she grabbed my hand stopping me. I looked at her questioningly "As much as I want that but I need you to undress too" she said demandingly.

I smiled at this "sure" I said. I was about to undress when she put her hand on my hands stopping me. I raised an eyebrow and she just smiled moving my hands aside and unbuttoning my shirt. As she was unbottoning she lead me towards the couch and straddled me.

She ran her hands on my arms taking the shirt down and tossing it aside. She looked at me as she was eyeing a prey. She ran a hand on my abs looking at me mischievously "You're not gonna shy away this time" She asked.

I smiled remembering our last time together "No, but trust me you will" I said and she chuckled "We'll see"

She unbuckled my pants and I lifted my hips up so that she can get them out of the way. She took off my bra and panties and was about to go further when I stopped her.

"This is all the control you get today, I'll take over from here" I said laying her on the couch.

"Okay, let's see what you've got" she said smilingly mischievously and I smirked. I removed her panties and ran a hand through her wetness. I put a finger inside of her. She moaned and I quickened my pace soon I put another finger in and her screams doubled.

"Don't…stop" she said and I removed my fingers. She looked at me annoyed "What are yo …" Before she could finish I silenced her with a kiss and put my fingers inside of her again.

She moaned into the kiss. I pulled away and saw her enjoying. Soon I felt her walls tighten around my fingers and she came. I was looking at her face and I have to say it is the best view I have seen in my whole life. I slowed the pace and then slowly removed my fingers.

She cupped my face and brought me in for a kiss. We kissed for a while and then she got up.

"Where are you going?" I asked. "It's your turn" she said looking at me and I chuckled "Nope, I'm not done with you yet" I said getting on top of her again.

The next few hours included me making Alexia scream again and again.

"That's enough for today" Alexia said breathing hardly. "Okay" I said kissing her forehead.

"Let's go to bedroom. I'm tired" she said. I laughed "Of course you are. And okay Let's go. I'll take you there"

"I can go on my own" Alexia said and I smirked "if you're sure" she got up but immediately fell down screaming in pain. "SHIT!" I laughed my ass off.

"Shut up or else you won't see the end of it" she said annoyed. I stopped laughing and picked her up. She wrapped her arms around me and I took her upstairs.

"Which one?" I asked and she looked at me raising an eyebrow. "Room. Which room?" I asked.

"The one you woke up in" she said and I nodded. I laid her on the bed and wrapped sheets around her.

"Want me to order something for you?" I asked and she nodded. Neither of us have had breakfast and it's 2 pm.

"What do you want to eat?" I asked. "Whatever you like" she said smiling softly at me.

I ordered and got in bed with her. We cuddled with each other. "You know you're the first person ever to top me" she said looking at me.

"Thank God I'm your first for at least something" I said sarcastically and she punched me. "Ow\.. that hurts" and she just rolled her eyes

Then a question came in my mind "Why did you gave me milkshake in the morning?" I asked. "Why? you didn't liked it?" She asked.

"No, I liked it a lot. But normally people offer coffee in the morning not milkshake"

"Yeah, they do. I would've too but you like milkshakes way too much" she said.

"How do you know that?" I asked curiously. Cuz I never told her.

"Back then you would always drink milkshakes whenever you stayed at the hospital and even now you're always drinking milkshakes. Even a blind person would notice you like them" she said like it's the most obvious thing in the world.

"So, you do notice things about me" I said.

"Of course, I do. After all I…" She trailed off. "After all you?" I asked trying to get her to complete the sentence.

She chuckled at my eagerness "I love you" she said looking in my eyes and my heart filled with warmth and my eyes filled with tears.

"You have no idea, how much I've waited to hear these words from you"

"And you've no idea how much I wanted to say these words to you" she said and I kissed her but our kiss was cut short by the ringing of the door bell.

We pulled away and I said "I'll see it" I took a robe and opened the door expecting to see delivery boy but I was shocked to see Iris.

Her eyes were wide open seeing me like this and I didn't know what to do. Alexia walked out when I didn't return "Riley, What's taking so lo…" She also trailed off seeing Iris in the doorway.

"I'll come later" she said and went away. I was about to close the door when  delivery boy came. I took the food and closed the door.

I approached Alexia cautiously not knowing what to expect after this.

"Are you okay?" I asked.

"Yeah, Why?" She asked coming close to me. "Iris saw us and.." I trailed off hoping she would get the hint.

"It's okay. She was bound to know at some point. Better sooner than later" she said. I nodded and we spent the rest of the day together

**Next day**

Yes, I spent the night with Alexia. I woke up and realized Alexia was not in the room. I went downstairs hoping to find her. I went into kitchen and there she was. With her back turned to me.

I went close to her wrapped my arms around her waist. "Morning" she said. "You too".

"It's not good to stroll in the house naked" she said amusedly. "Oh, it's for you" I said. "For me?"

"Yeah, you won't have to undress me next time we go on a rampage" I said teasingly pointing to last night's events.

"Shut up"

"What are you cooking?" I asked.

"Breakfast" she said.

"I can see. But what's in the menu?"

"What do you want to eat?" She asked turning around and wrapping her arms around my neck.

"You" I said and she rolled her eyes. "That means you're not eating anything for now so, I'll just cook something for myself" she said.

"NOo! I'll get whatever you're cooking" I said.

She just chuckled and nodded. After eating breakfast. She said "You should go to the hospital"

"Planing to get rid of me so soon? I don't think so" I said wrapping my arms around her.

"Go or else I'll kick you out" she said half jokingly but I knew she was very much serious.

"Okay, but… you're coming with me" I said. "I resigned remember?" She said.

"Yeah I remember. But as the director I over rule your resignation request"

She turned to face me and asked"If you were that much worried about me resigning why didn't you said anything earlier?"

"Well, because I didn't knew you were resigning" I said and her brows furrowed. I explained everything to her and she nodded in acknowledgement.

"And since I got your letter only the day before yesterday so, I have the power to over rule it.

"Okay, Director" she said and both of us chuckled.

**The End**
