Heaven's POV

"King please!" I called after him while grabbing his shoulder.

"Don't do this to me!" I said between crying and catching my breath. He's not looking at me, he grasped my hand so hard before removing it from his shoulder.

"Heaven!" David called me but I ignored him. I kept on following King.

"You can't even look at me before you leave! How dare you do this to me!" The people were looking at me with pity on their eyes. I know I look stupid but I don't care.

"If you leave I'll forget everything about you! I'll hate you forever you fucking coward!" He stopped when I said those words. His grip on his shoulder bag is getting tighter. I know that he wants to see me for the last time, he doesn't want to go. Slowly he's about to turn around and look at me when--

"Don't turn around King! Just go now!" David commanded while hugging me from my back. He's doing his best to stop me from getting closer to King.

He did what David told him to do. He ran inside the immigration area leaving me crying out loud.

"Shhh...enough" David said while caressing my head. I punched his shoulder many times in so much anger.

"I hate you! I hate all of you!" I said then left him standing all alone.

"Hey" I groaned, I'm hearing a familiar voice.

"Heaven Pervert Watson, wake up" Mischa. My mind said. I opened my eyes and saw her lying beside me, her head is resting on her left hand. So it's just a dream.

"You're crying" she said looking at me anxiously, she leaned closer to wipe it.

"Oh... I... I had a bad dream" was all I said. She leaned closer then looked at me frowning. It's been 3 years since I had those dreams.

"How bad it is?" Wow she's super close. My eyes averted on her breast, she's not wearing her bra and the lace of her negligee was crooked. I pretended to yawn to avoid her question but it only made my tears fall. She doesn't have an idea that I can see her breast and I don't have the intention to tell her that.

"Hey. Is there something wrong?" She said while cupping my face. She's really close, much closer now.

I'm sad, whenever I had those dreams it made me sad but I don't want to tell her that, I don't want to tell her about that part of me.

When I fall in love with someone, I fall hard to the point that I don't care what will happen to me or to the people around me. David was right, Julia is a user, I never loved her, it's just that she's the first one to make me feel wanted, she took advantage of my sadness and vulnerability. I closed my eyes.

"You'll be transferring in St. Bernadette! In there you can't go anywhere because it has dormitories!" My mom said while packing my things. I didn't respond I just keep on playing 2048.

"Heaven honey, we're doing this because we love you" she said sweetly, again I didn't respond.

"I called the president, Allison McKinley, she'll show you around" I rolled my eyes in annoyance, she'll keep on talking until she hear me speak.

"You're locking me in an all-girls school, so you'd rather want me to date girls than King" I said sarcastically.

"No, that's not it. Loving King is wrong, it's--"

"I don't see anything wrong by loving him, you all just want to use him, you're selfish! You're all pathe-" I was cut off by a slap on my face.

"Don't argue, we all know what's best for you and for this family you're the one who's becoming selfish here! You'll go to that school whether you like it or not!" She said sternly before walking out of my door.

I opened my eyes the moment the memories became vague in my mind. I almost forgot that I'm talking to Mischa. I smiled and once again my tears fell.

"What's your problem? Hey, you know you can talk to me about your dream" I opened my mouth to say something but nothing came out. I can't bring myself to tell her.

I wish I could, but that's a sensitive topic. My mind replied. I like it when she looks concerned, it makes me feel that I am loved by her. This girl in front of me right now is like King, loving them both is so complicated. I don't know how long I am looking at her but I blinked when she kissed me. She seldom initiates a kiss, I don't know if she's like this with David though.

She's kissing me passionately, she's not in a rush, it's more like she's massaging my lips gently. I like what she's doing but I don't feel like closing my eyes. I like to see her expression, the way her beautiful lips move. She never touched me, she's only kissing me on my lips no more no less. I'm not complaining but I really want to know how it feels to be touched by her.

She frowned when I pushed her gently. She's giving me a questioning look.

"I'm sorry..." It's not that I'm not in the mood but I'm feeling frustrated every time the thought of her not touching me comes to my mind.

"Seriously? You're rejecting me?" She said unbelievably.

"No, I'm not rejecting you, you know to yourself that I like what you're doing but..." I can't tell her.

"But what?" She said irritably. I chose not to respond, I was about to stand up when she pushed me back on the bed. My eyes widen when I saw what she did next...

"Whoa, hey" I said trying to stop her, She removed her negligee exposing her full breasts,

"No one rejected me in my entire life when I kissed them you pervert!"

"Why are you suddenly acting like that?" I managed to ask.

"You're insulting me stupid! I'll make you crawl from where you are right now and beg me to kiss you" she threw her negligee in my face,

Fudge!

She's removing her panty, I caught my breath when I almost see her center.

"Uh... Mischa" I paused. She ignored me, I closed my eyes to restrain myself from looking at her naked body. I decided to open my eyes when the room went silent.

I guess she gave up already.

"What...the...fudge" I mumbled before I stood up and walked closer to her. It's the first time that I saw her naked body. I mean I'm drunk when I almost had her before.

She laughed out loud when she saw the look in my eyes.

"See, now you're drooling" she said cockily. I nodded hastily in response. I was about to touch her when she slapped my hands.

"In your dreams girl, you will never have me Hahahahaha" she said and about to get dressed when I grabbed her waist and threw her back on the bed.

"Hey!" She yelled in anger, she's trying her best to get out of my grasp but I'm on top of her.

"Let's play a game" I whispered before licking her earlobe. She shivered immediately.

"Heaven! Get off me!" Now it's my turn to laugh out loud,

"I'm the teacher you're my student" I said as my tongue travelled down to her neck.

"Heaven...." She said while catching her breath.

I released her both hand and focused on her breast. She smells of white lily, we just woke up but it feels like she just took a bath. I'm surprised because she's not stopping me.

This is it!

My mind reminded me.

I should take advantage of her situation right now. I swiftly moved down to her tummy, I drew circles on her navel using my tongue. She moaned out loud because of the sensation that I'm giving her.

I kissed the side of her legs passionately, she arched her body while grasping my hair.

I was about to touch her center when we heard the doorbell.

"Fudge!" She exclaimed in annoyance. Can't blame her, she's enjoying what I'm doing. She stood up and wore her clothes immediately.

"Don't come out unless I say so" she commanded while pointing at me. As usual I'm only wearing a baggy shirt and underwear, I nodded in response. I flinched when she came rushing inside the room.

"Wear this!" She said after throwing the boxer shorts in my face then walked back to the living room. I did what she told me to do but after 15 minutes I became bored.

"I wonder who her visitor is" I mumbled frowning. I'm hungry and I can't wait for her to allow me to come out.

"Maybe it's Michelle" I said before jumping off the bed. Before I open the door I heard her chuckle.

Well she seems fine

, my mind said as I open the door.

"Mischa I'm hungry" I said as I walked to the living room but I froze when I saw who's with her. If I can shrink on the floor right now I'd do it.

David!

My heartbeat became faster and it made me harder to breath. He was sitting cozily on the couch. Of all David in the world, Mischa is his girlfriend.

"Heaven!" Mischa exclaimed in shock. That's when David's face turned into mine. I can see shock plastered on his face as well. We have the same facial expression. He didn't say anything but he looked at me from head to toe. It's obvious that I'm not wearing anything inside my shirt.

"Uh.... David" Mischa started to speak while scratching her head,

"This is Heaven Watson, she's my.... Uh... She's my cousin" she said stuttering. He raised his brow when Mischa introduced me.

"Heaven, this is David Anderson... He's my... Uh... He's my boyfriend" it's my turn now to raise my brow. I'm like a statue right now, I can't move, it's like gravity is forbidding me.

He faked a smile when Mischa was done talking, he walked closer to mine and extended his hand to shake mine.

"Nice to meet you Heaven" he greeted me warmly, he's pressing my hand so hard that it hurts but I'm not complaining. We're glaring with each other. If looks could kill we're both dead right now.

"Hey, uh... David I'm just gonna go change okay? I'll be back in a minute" Mischa said breaking the tension between the three of us. I know she doesn't have an idea that we're siblings, what made her nervous is the knowledge that we both love her.

"Sure, take your time, I'm just gonna chat with your cousin" he said smiling.

"Thank you" Mischa said before running back to her room.

He sat down on the couch again as soon as Mischa closed her door, I sat again. He crossed his arms and legs while looking at me intently.

What a small stupid world. My mind said.

"Are you playing games with me Heaven" he said sternly after a while.

"Why would I play games with you?!" I replied irritably, our voices were low to avoid Mischa from hearing our conversation. He clenched his jaw, he's doing his best not to shout on me, he's mad I can tell. I frowned when he chuckled.

"So this is your plan huh?"

"What plan?" I counter asked.

"You want to steal my girlfriend to take revenge on me from taking Julia away from you"

"Your girlfriend huh? I should be the one asking you that. How did you know that I'm here with Mischa?! How did you find out where I live?" I said accusingly.

"Like I said before I didn't look for you, I don't intend to, I'm busy with business and my girlfriend to focus on you. I'm done wasting my time on you" he said sternly.

I know to myself that's he's not lying, judging the way he spoke and the shock on his face a while ago.

"Now that you know where I live you should stop seeing Mischa, she's mine" I managed to say.

"Yours? She's my girlfriend if I'm not mistaken she introduced you as her cousin, I don't know how you convinced her to play games with you but I'll do anything to find that out" he said seriously, I suddenly became nervous.

"I'm the first one to find her! She's mine! You're just a nuisance!" I said quite loud. We both looked to Mischa's room to check if she heard us.

"Stop playing games Heaven and go home, you're not a child anymore. Don't make me tell Mischa that we're siblings" he threatened. I faked a tough laugh.

"Go tell her, I'll make sure to ruin you as well trust me" I threatened back. We fought gaze once again, we both flinched when she arrived.

"Sorry to keep you waiting David" Mischa said sweetly.

"It's fine, let's go" David said before standing up.

"Uh... Heaven we'll go now" I just nodded while clenching my jaw. It's not the right time to argue with my brother.

••••

I've never slept well ever since David and I met in Mischa's house. Whenever Mischa goes out with David my paranoia is attacking me. I have huge eye-bags, even my friends and Mischa noticed it.

I decided to walk home because I want to think. I need to convince Mischa to leave David but I don't know how, I know that he's planning something, he's my brother so I know that he won't stop until he get what he wants.

I sighed, I haven't eaten since this morning and my stomach is now rumbling.

I stopped to eat in a ramen house. I didn't see any customer around when I entered.

"We're closed already" said by the beautiful woman wearing long sleeves that fits her sexy body, I think she's in her mid-twenties.

"But it's not locked and there's no closed sign?" I argued. She glanced at the door.

"Ah yeah sorry, but we're closed already" she said giving me an apologetic smile.

"But it's too early" I insisted.

"Yeah but we're closed already" she repeated patiently.

"But--"

"No more buts miss... I'm busy computing the sales, I can't balance everything... So like I said before we're closed already" she said sighing.

"But I'm hungry and I want ramen" I said sighing as well, she chuckled when she heard my stomach rumbling.

"Okay, you're lucky I can't stand to see people starving to death. Please lock the door and put the closed sign" I did what she told me to do immediately.

She fixed her hair bun style and wore her apron.

"Wait here" she said before leaving me alone.

I whistled when I saw her documents, no wonder she can't compute it. The expenses were not sorted properly as well as the income and blah, blah.

"Alessa Mendez" I mumbled.

"So she's the owner" I said while nodding my head. I suddenly felt ashamed, the owner is cooking food for me.

I think I heard that name before. I said to myself while massaging my chin.

"Okay here's your food kiddo" I flinched when she arrived. I straightened my sit immediately.

"Uh... Thanks" I said shyly.

"It's fine, eat" she said motioning me to start. Since I'm so hungry I did what she told me to do. She continued computing and didn't bother to talk, it's like I don't exist.

"Want me to help you?"

"Oh my gosh!" She exclaimed in shock. Her expression is funny right now.

"Hey, don't tell me you forgot that I'm here?" I said while controlling myself to laugh.

"Yeah, I forgot. Sorry" she said chuckling.

"Seriously?"

"Yeah seriously" she said while massaging her temple, she looked really stressed out.

"Anyways I'm Heaven Anderson" I introduced myself.

"I'm Alessa Mendez" I know that already.

"You look familiar"

"Do I?" She asked me frowning.

"I'm not sure but... Did you appear on magazine before?" I asked while sipping the soup.

"Yeah, back when I was engaged to Emman Fernandez" she said flatly.

"Shoot! I knew it!" I exclaimed as if I won the lottery.

"I only appeared twice and I didn't expect that someone like you would remember me considering you're living here in California" she said while playing with her pen.

"I know right... But my father is Emman's classmate in Yale" her eyes widen in disbelief.

"I heard your name a lot of times especially when he visits my father to talk about business"

"What a small world, maybe we're destined to meet kiddo" she said interestedly,

"Yeah, I'm destined to help you with your problem. Let me" I said then grabbed the paper and pen that she's holding.

After 30 minutes of computing I'm done.

"Tada!!" I said ecstatically. She checked all the papers and was happy by the result.

"You saved me from a whole night of misery Heaven!"

"No problem, you saved me from a whole day of starving" I said winking at her. We both laughed in response with each other.

"Anyways, what happened between you and Emman? If you don't mind me asking" the atmosphere became serious.

"Well, let's just say his daughter was my first love. Small world isn't it?" She said smiling bitterly. It's a surprise to know that she also swing on the same team as mine.

I wonder what Ginger looked like? I asked myself. I heard before that Emman already found his long lost daughter

"Whoa... How come you don't know that Emman is her father?" I asked curiously. She sighed before telling me the whole story back to where she and Ginger first met.

"I don't want to commit the same mistake again so I decided to marry Emman that's when Ginger left for Paris with her girlfriend" she said forcing herself to talk normal.

"But you said Emman backed out from the wedding right? So there's still a chance for the both of you" I said trying to cheer her up, she shook her head gently.

"She doesn't know that I'm here, I live in the Philippines, I'm only managing this restaurant because my cousin is on leave, she's about to give birth"

"Oh... I thought you're living here, I thought I found a friend for good" I said sounding upset,

"We're friends already! When you visit Philippines don't forget to message me" she said while tapping my head.

Why does everybody kept on tapping my head? I asked myself.

"Do you think she still loves you?" I asked after a while.

"I'm still hoping yes but after all the things that I've done to her I'm really not sure" she said as she leaned on the chair.

"Enough of me, what about you? Are you taken?"

"Yes I am taken" I said sadly.

"You're taken yet you're sad hmmm?" She asked me curiously,

"I'm taken for granted" I said making a peace sign while chuckling.

"Oh" was all she said while nodding her head.

"There are lots of men don't stick to just only one" she added.

"I forgot to tell, she's a girl"

"Oh" again was all she said. She's really pretty.

"Loving the same sex is really complicated, trust me, been there done that" I'm surprised when she took a sip from my ramen using my spoon. I blushed suddenly.

"What's her name?"

"Mischa, Mischa Lewis"

"Shoot!" She said suddenly.

"What? You know her?" I asked nervously.

"Of course not. I'm just teasing you, I don't live here remember?" she said then tapped my head once again. I sighed in relief. She's a joker for her age but I find it cute.

"I assume this Mischa is like me and you're just like Ginger" she crossed her arms while looking at me intently. I nodded in response, I can't talk because my mouth is full of noodles.

"Okay, we have similarities. We're both older and we both think about things in more advanced way and most of all we're both hurting the person who loves us so much" once again I nodded.

"Okay tell me everything about her"

I started telling her my whole story, she just listened intently without judging me.

"Well at least Mischa was honest not like me, I'm a coward"

"That's true" I said hastily. She laughed by my response.

"Okay I'll give you an advice"

"Sure" I said hastily.

"Stop being a martyr, make things clear. Make her choose for the last time. But before you do that make sure that you did your best shot" I listened to every word that she said, we talked about a lot of things and I didn't realized
