Onyx's Point of View,

My room was cold when I entered it to get the blankets that everyone wanted. Good job I have enough. I had to pull up the office chair to get it down the box from on top of the wardrobe.

"Need some help?" I jumped ten feet off the ground, well chair, and lost my balance. Luckily Jinxx was so close he caught me before I hit the floor.

"I- urh thank you..." I stuttered feeling embarrassed that his arms were holding me. I wriggled in his grip before he let me go.

"I will get them for you. I can't have such a fragile, beautiful young woman injure herself now can I?" His voice made me shiver, but not out of fright. Why is this so hot?

Jinxx reached up and passed me blanket after blanket until we had enough. But just as I was about to leave the room he pushed my against the door and locked it from inside.

"Jinxx, what are you do--" I was cut off by his lips against mine. I kissed back, how could I not? I dropped the pile of blankets when I felt his hands pull my legs around his waist. I think to have more control over me, but he just used it as an opportunity to deepen the kiss. I felt his tongue slide gracefully along my bottom lip begging for entrance into my mouth, which of course, I granted. My hands had a mind of their own, making their way up his back and to his long black hair.

But when I felt his hands run under my shirt I pushed him away and almost slapped him.

"What do you think you are doing?!" I almost shouted.

"I-i'm sorry." he looked down.

"I am technically a slut for that for gods sake. I'm such a slut." I started to cry.

"No Onyx that's not true, I came on to you. Don't call yourself that please." Jinxx went to touch me but I shot him a death glare.

"Don't touch me." I hissed.

"Onyx i'm sorry. But when I'm around you I. I can't control myself I just need to feel your skin against mine, your warmth heating my cold heart bit by bit." His voice still just makes me melt.

"But you have a wife, these are the things you should be saying to her, Not ME." I snapped back. Putting my head in my hands.

I started sobbing into my hands and felt myself longing for pain. Longing the feel of an old 'abandoned' razor blade. But I can't start that again. Its something that will hurt everyone around me.

"Why did I do that why did I do that...." I kept repeating that time and time again. I looked up and saw Jinxx leave with the blankets and vaguely heard him say that I was having a melt-down.

"OMG does she need me?" I heard Jo's voice ring out louder than Jinxx's.

"no no don't panic, let me help her out. She er wanted me anyway." Was the reply Jinxx gave.


"Jinxx what's going on? why did you kiss me? Why me? why not your wife?" I asked the questions watching him lock my bedroom door and walk slowly over to my bed.


"May I?" He gestured towards the bed. I nodded and he sat down too close for my liking. "I- Me and Sammi, its, its just no working anymore, we've grown apart and I, I don't love her anymore. I love you. And as for me kissing you... Well I've wanted to do that since you came to the reunion." He continued.

"Listen Jinxx, I love you to but we need to do this the right way. If we do anything about it at all. But why, why me? I'm just a mess.. im a single mum with no financial help from my daughters father, I am weak, unstable. I am barely able to think straight anymore. So why me?" I asked my voice shaking a little.

"Why you? Because, the way your hair curls and drops to highlight all the best things about you. Your smile through hard times. How motherly you are, the fact you don't ask for help. How beautiful you are. The list goes on and on and on. But remember we were each others first time. And that to me is a big deal. And because I love you." He replied engulfing me in a tight hug, but it was reassuring.

"And I will do this the right way. I will file for a divorce. But this is going to be hard on me to." he said. "I just can't keep away from you."

"I know Jinxx but we have to... or else Sammi will think something happened. Which I know it did, but it wont help at all. Trust me." I hugged him back.

Then there was a loud knock at the door...
