I walked up to the room and immediately went into the shower with emily. After I washed off all the mud and shrubs off of her I realized I was basically blind, where my glasses are. I wrapped her up in a towel and went to clean myself off.I looked down at my chest and remembered when i was looking at my locket, it fell off. I came out of the bathroom and put in my contacts, and I hate them. I took up Emily and took her to her room, her mother was in there messing with her manicured nails. I gave her her child and walked away. I went back to the garden, came to think of it. I never thanked Dominic for saving me. When I went to the garden he wasn't there. I went to the kitchen to find him shirtless eating.
I sat across from him and took a deep breath.
"Thanks for saving me."
"I had to save my niece."
That was it then. I left him in the kitchen and went to the garden. I looked to the bottom and saw half of my glasses stuck in the mud at the bottom. I looked around and saw a rake. I grabbed it and tried to get my glasses. Jesus this mud is heavy. I finally give up and pull the rake up, along with about a pond of mud and my glasses. I pull the rake in and drab my glasses. I shake off the mud and rinse off the rake. I put it back where I found it and went back to the room. Apparently Dominic was in the shower. My day just keeps getting better and better. Crap I forgot my stuff in the garden. TABATHA could be cracked. I bolted out of the room and down to the garden. I found everything except tabatha. While looking I heard heels slowly choking towards me.
When i turned around it was that bitch she had my Tabatha.
"Looking for this?"
"Give it to me."
"Sure."
She walked over to the pound and just dropped it in. WTF do these people have against my tablet? Im done. I just took my things and walked away. When I got back to the room Dominic was spread out on the bed on his computer. Great now i need to order a new tablet. Oh tabatha you had a good life, we did a lot of things together. You had a good rum. See you on the other side. DOn't worry i won't forget you. Iset my things up and checked my violin to see if it was damaged. When i was done i just decided to take a breather.
I sat down in the chair next to the window and looked outside. I never thought I would want to go home this much. You know what grandma always says to list the pros and cons then you're allowed to cry or brush it off.
CONS
Lost last picture of me and granny
Lost my weeks worth of work
Lost it again
Tabatha is in a watery grave
Dominic and i aren't on good terms
Almost drowned
Home sick
PROS
Saved Emily
......
Well I officially have the right to cry like a bitch. But after i get a new tablet, then i can cry. I began searching on amazon and immediately felt guilty, i feel like i should wait a week but i need it as soon as possible.
"WHy do you look like you're going to cry looking at your phone? Is it at five percent again?"
"I-I never cry when my phone is at five percent, maybe whine on a plane but not cry."
"SO why are you crying?"
"I'm not."
I looked down at my phone scream and it is sweet aw crap i am crying.
I put down my phone, got up and wandered over to the bed. DOminic was now on his back holding himself up with his elbows looking at me confused and concerned. I just fell forward right into his hard chest. It felt like I broke my nose but that only let the tears flow much easier. I just was crying and he began panicking.
"Mali what did i say what's wrong?"
"Tabatha is dead."
"Then go charge her and stop acting like a baby."
"No dead dead. I can't charge her anymore. She's at the bottom of the pond."
"WHat are you talking about, you didn't have her with you when you went in."
"No, I didn't."
"Then how did she get there?"
"It doesn't matter."
"I'm going to have to get a new tablet. I'm going to miss tabatha."
"Why do you have a name for your gadgets."
".............."
"Please tell me they weren't your only friends growing up."
".........."
"No wonder you attached."
I got off him and went into the bathroom to wash off my face. I can't believe I weep like a baby. I went back to the chair, grabbed my phone and layed next to dominic.
"Oh I never asked you how your first lesson was."
"It was ok he didn't interrupt, followed instruction and paid attention to what i was teaching."
"You sure about that."
"There wasn't much else, he didn't use his phone and the only thing he had to do was play the violin and learn the notes."
"AW huh."
He had better not be getting suspicious. I wonder if he noticed that he was telling the truth before I came and I heard him. He probably didn't even know he was thinking out loud. He wasn't nervou on valentines he was just as i thought. He should have gotten a girl then maybe it would have been better, but hey no refunds, literally. He pulled me closer with one hand then continued doing god knows what on his computer. Honestly now I feel like I'm being played like a violin.
He clearly has no interest in me physically yet he pulls me close. I wonder if it's just to keep me quiet or something. At this point i don't care. I just want to sleep, I'll have to ask him if I can borrow his computer to print my lessons for tomorrow.
I crawled to the other side of the bed and just slept. I've had one hell of a day.
DominiC POV
WHy did he crawl away from me. Is it still because of last night. Cap i knew i shouldn't have said those things. I couldn't have been what I thought of the day when he was unconscious or did I actually say it? No way i didnt, I don't think. As I look over my computer at him under the covers facing away from me I feel like a jerk. I only pull him close when i want to then push him away when i want. I don't think I have taken his feelings into consideration. Like yesterday.
I didn't want him to eat, I just wanted what I wanted. I didn't want him on his phone because I wanted attention. Come to think of it he has been the only one trying in this relationship. He did something for valentines, he planned around my schedule and didn't even want a gift or asked for one. I took something precious from him, his tablet and that picture and he didn't even want revenge.
I am a jerk. Even though i don't have to work this week i still spend all the time in my office when he is at work and when he is home. And when he is at home I notice he doesn't call home often, to be fair I'm always on his case about him being on his electronics when I'm just as bad. Here I am on my computer playing games when he nearly drowned saving my niece that I wasn't watching because I was busy being pissed at him instead of playing with her when she asked.
I closed my computer, closed the curtains and got under the covers. I didnt even thank him for saving her. Yet he thanked me for saving him and what was my reply? oh yeah i made it sound like the only reason i saved him was because he had my niece. I pulled him close and he rolled over looking at me. I didn't like that look for some reason he didn't look happy at all. Maybe he's sick.
"You can go back to what you were doing, you don't have to hold me."
"Why wouldn't I want to hold you, you're freaking adorable."
"Do you know that sometimes people think out loud without even knowing it?"
Fuck he knew. No wonder he crawled away. I loosened my hold in surprise, he heard me , he knew I lied, and right to his face. His eyes were half open and tired.
"Mali I-"
"Please just think for a while an dont make up an excuse, it was what you thought and that's ok. I'm used to being ignored. Hell the first morning here I wasn't used to sharing a bed, I'm still not. Oh before I forget , can you buy me a tablet on your computer? I don't think i can do it without crying. One sec let me go get my card and the type."
He wiggled out of my lip and got out of the bed.He went over to his bag, pulled out his card and handed it to me. He changed the subject so quickly, too quickly like he was numb. When he came back he motioned for me to scoot over. He had my computer and he handed me his card. I couldn't imagine his life, his parents not paying any attention to him, maybe because he was a class one son but now not even the person who got him was ignoring him. Its sad how ok he is with this. He went back to sleep without another word. I sighed deeply then began finding the tablet he wanted.
After I closed my computer and went to put his card back. While doing so I noticed something written on the back of one of the exercises. it was a drawing that was unsuccessfully erased. It was Mali but with a huge breast. That little bastard. The paper was graded, I guess he will do that later. I went back to the bed and pulled him into my arms anyways.
"I'm not holding you because I feel I have to do it because I want to."
At this point I don't think he cared; he just wanted to sleep. I fell asleep not to long after. When i woke up again he was gone, i sat up to find dinner on a tray but he wasn't in the room. I took the tray and went downstairs to the kitchen Emily was walking around looking worried.
"What's wrong EM?"
"Mommy."
"She isn't watching you again."
I guess Mali was right about her. I took Emily's hand and she followed me to the kitchen. There I was at the table grading the papers his student did. Judging by the plate next to him he already ate. I set down the tray and came up behind him, just as I was about to scare him he put his hand up.
"One Second while i think about how i'm gonna kill that little shit."
"What why? How did you know I was behind you?"
"One our huge and two he fucking ranked me."
"Easy Emily is here."
"Oh sorry."
"Now what is this about ranking?"
"Apparently this idiot has many tutors and teachers. I'm the only male he ranked me , i cant wait for this job to be over."
"Let me see."
"No, you can't."
He folded the piece of paper and shoved it into his pants. Does he think I won't go in there?
"No."
"I promise i wont kill him."
"Why would you in the first place?"
"I can't tell by the blank look on your face if you're asking if you're calling me a dick."
"AN actual question."
"Oh why would I not?"
"You're not interested in my body so what's the point?"
"I- just let me see the list."
"No"
"I will destroy hsu homework."
"Already sent him his mom hsi grades"
"I will get it."
"You wouldn't dare."
Out of nowhere he bolted out of the kitchen still with that paper in his black tights, I looked around to find that Em ate my dinner and fell asleep. I can deal with Mali later he is probably in the room. I picked her up put her to bed then went to the room. Mali was there sitting in the corner,i saw him in the corner with the square shape in his tights. He was giving me the death stair but i'll be damned if i wasn't in to see that list. I closed the door and walked over to him,he crossed his legs as i came closer.
"Mali, give me the note."
"Not happening."
"Can't say i didn't ask."
I calmly walked up to him rested my hands on his shoulders calmy, warmly smiled then tossed him over my shoulder and pulled down his tights. When the paper fell out i pulled them back up and put him down. He was pissed. HE fixed his tights while i picked up the paper. I have a feeling he wants to hurt me. I opened up the paper. What the ever loving fuck.
Mali-Ass:9/10 Hips:8/10 Tits:N/A Legs:10/10 Smile:10/10 Eyes:7/10 Lips:10/10

This asshole so he has been looking at Mali's ass, i knew it.
"Mali your student is a pervert and he is clearly blind i mean come on, look at these numbers. This list is bullshit."
"Well at least your right, it's bullshit its wrong to rank someone-"
"I ,mean i agree with him on your ass but i have to disagree with the legs i mean yours are quite soft no form really, also you don't smile much.You tend to fold your lips on habit so who knows about those. Eyes are good in color though your an inch from being blind also he went a little high on the hips."
Mali POV
Im would slap him across the face if i wasn't scared of hurting my hand. It is rude to rank someone's body yet here he is doing the exact same thing. At least now i definitely know he doesn't find me attractive. Come to think of it i don't think i will mind dying a virgin. Fucking asshole he should have shut up while he was ahead.
"Mali why are you looking at me like that?"
"Nothing, nothing at all. I think you both would get along well since you liek ranking people."
"It's not like a hobby but sometimes people do it in the back of their minds he just wrote it down."
I just walked past him, i think if he continues i might explode. I think i liked him better when i thought i was going to die. I just got in bed and ignored him. Moments later i felt the bed sink he poked me in the back and looked at me annoyed.
"What's Wrong now?"
"Why me?"
"Huh?'
"There were other people at that auction. I could think of three who would be a better fit for you. Why me? It's sure isnt my looks considering how you just ranked mean might i add was quite meaning. I don't like children, i don't want to be a housewife and we seem to argue more than anything else. So why me?"
"Your eyes."
"You just said yourself i'm almost blind."
"Not the quality. they were so soft up there, i knew i wanted you that we could have a life together."
"Then why bother saying useless things that hurt me? They just push me away. Like when you were just ranking yourself don't you think that hurts. The other night when you said you were happy you didn't waste your valentines i assure you that stun. Why say these things if you want a life with me when all they are doing is pushing me farther away? I really would like to get to know you better but you are making it impossible. I don't even know your favorite color or how you grew up and all those things."
I patted the spot next to the bed and he sat down. I leaned in closer to kiss him on the lips. He didn't kiss back.
"When you are ready to be a couple, tell me , or just send me back home, I'll send you back your money."
I just went to bed. I said my piece and I was done, nothing more I can say or do.
DOMINIC POV
I still can't believe how ok he was with saying that, i mean honestly looking back i see whee i was rude by ignoring him then childish by taking tabatha and his food. I tore up the list and crawled back into bed with Mali. I looked rolled over and realized how i have gotten used to seeing his face and not his back. I snuggled behind him leaving no space between us yet he didn't move.
"Please look at me."
He stayed still for a few minutes but just as i was about to close my eyes i saw those hazel beauty looking at me only half open and clouded with exhaustion. What am i going to do with you?
