"I like you for me now." he answered, pulling me back to his lap. Embarrassingly, my whole being started to be shaken by guilt and shame after Logan wanted to keep the night going like we started it. "Logan, wait.." I jolted, when something hard overpowered me once again, and with avidity, greed and desire consuming us without pause, our mind forgot about social norms, morals and customs.. We didn't stop to think, we only moved to feel and when we saw the sun dissolving the wildness of the night we shared, we looked at each other with longingnes. Not wanting this perfect harmony to end, hating the fact that this might be the last time. A part of me felt so connected with him, that I know and feel his feelings at that moment..he and I felt sad that this moment might turn into a memory. I didn't have the guts to say it, nor the courage to communicate my feelings so I decided to use my instincts instead. With the lust flushed out of my system, I got out of bed in a hurry before the sun was fully awake in the sky. Logan was silent while I got dressed, which was fine for me. I didn't want him to say anything about our one night stand. Was it counted as one if we did it like five times in a row? "Thanks for the night, Mr. Pierce. Good-bye." I said, while I hopped away from him heading to the door. I was busy inserting my foot on my boots so I didn't see him leave the bed and stood up there on the door. "You're welcome." Logan said flatly, opening the door for me like a gentleman, although he looked unhappy about something. Did I forget something? The headache was killing me and my mind couldn't even think straight! I don't know if I was just a sensitive person but Logan offended my feelings for making an effort of showing me out the door after a one night stand. "T-thanks." I said, biting my lips disappointingly. For no reason, I wished he didn't open the door for me and just let me show myself out. Is this a normal thing to do? Why does it feel.. insulting and awkward? "You had fun too, right?" I asked, out of curiosity. "I just w-want to know if I did my part right, that's all." I reasoned. Logan eyed me like he was surprised and a little annoyed with my question so I nodded, taking that as a hint to leave. "I'm sorry for being awkward and weird." I bowed my head and wanted to leave but my head bumped on the door, sending me staggering backwards. "Now I'm being an embarrassment." I grunted, scolding myself for choosing this day to be my dumbest version. 'Mia, please don't make yourself a clown in front of Logan Pierce!' I begged myself, crying in my thoughts. "What are you going to do about it?" Logan asked, crossing his arms in front of his chest while leaning on the closed door. My eyes were glued on the door, I just wanted to escape this conversation that I started after I made things awkward. Logan clenched his jaws while he watched me stand there like a clueless child, unable to figure out what the silence means. "So? What are you going to do about it?" Logan impatiently asked, moving himself to cover the door with his wide figure and broad shoulders. "Uhmm, about what?" I asked, forgetting what was the recent topic that was up for discussion. "If I didn't have fun last night, If you didn't do your part, what now? what are you going to do about it?" Logan asked, once again. "I will learn from this experience and do better next time." I answered, treating the situation like it was some sort of a learning experience for me. I must've said something wrong because Logan didn't seem happy with my answer, his grim face made me take a step back. "Next time? With someone else?" his eyebrows raised, as if threatening me to answer him better this time. My mind rattled, fearing another stupid mistake. 'Please don't say something stupid, Mia! Think! Say something cool, what do fling manuals say in this type of situation?' "Next time, yes! I'll make sure my one night stand with someone else will be better and less awkward." I answered, betting on my best answer to save me from further embarrassment. Logan scoffed, his smug smile caused me to take a long deep breath to reflect on my answer. 'Did I say something wrong?' "Are you doing this to piss me off?" Logan threatened me again with sharp glance. "No, I'm serious. I will not make things awkward like this next time..—" I couldn't finish my explanation, since Logan's face was getting angrier and angrier with every word that I let my tongue push out of my mouth. It was like saying more would only make it worse than ever. "I'm so bad at this. I don't know how to act like a cool fling, Mr. Logan. I just wanted to end things with you in a decent farewell, I guess. I'm really sorry for making this awkward." I frustratedly sighed, wanting to let the situation end with my leave but Logan stopped my hand from reaching the knob. "Who says we're ending things between us?" Logan growled, pinning my body at the door. His lips were almost touching mine, our breaths were kissing in the small space between us. With my heart racing, I stiffened at the closeness. "This is just a one night stand, Mr. Logan Pierce. I'm behaving accordingly." I reminded him, in case he forgot about it because his possessiveness seemed out of place at the moment. "Of course." Logan whispered, brushing my face with his fingers. His soft lingering touch was awakening something in me, reminding me of the sensations I felt last night because of his amazing hands and fingers. Other than that, I don't remember anything else due to this horrible headache. "But I don't want this to be our last. We could do better next time." Logan said, stopping my mind from fantasizing about his lips. "We?" I looked at him with wide eyes. "If you don't become my wife, my son will not stop harassing you. So why don't you think about it? Let me know when you're ready." Logan answered, then twisted the door open. The open door was a clear order for me to leave so I hopped out of the room and looked at Logan with a baffled face, hoping to hear something that might help clarify that but he shut the door closed and left me dumbfounded. 'What does he mean when I'm ready?' I asked myself, trying to recall the fast words he said to me.. my mind was blank and I didn't quite catch all that he said, and the only thing I was able to hang on to was the last sentence that says and I quote, "Let me know when you're ready." 'Ready for what?' I asked the dear air over my head, still slow with my thinking after the headache started impeding the normal function of my brain. "Mia?" Alex moved to block my path, distracting me from my thoughts. "W-what?" I asked, still not focused on everything that was happening around me. The hangover was blurring my vision, making me squint my eyes while I stared at Alex with a confused face. "What do you mean what? Who did you sleep with last night?" Alex growled, grabbing my arm harshly. "Ouch! Alex, you're hurting me!" I cried, after my arms became numb with his tight grip. "Answer me, Mia!" Alex demanded. His demand was like a good wake up call for me, my mind quickly rushed to remind me of what my ex-boyfriend was demanding from me so I said, "I don't even know his name, how should I know the answer to that, huh?" "Besides, we're over Alex! Let me go!" I growled, trying to get myself free from his grasp.. "I thought you were decent but it turns out you're a dirty slut! Last night, you really sounded like one!" Alex moved to dragged me away but then we were both pulled and when I looked back, Logan had his fist flying out towards his son.. hitting him straight on his face which caused him to fall and roll down the floor. "Dad, stay out of this! Mia cheated on me last night!" Alex spurted out. "I know. I was there." Logan replied, smirking at his son.
