《boxes - taron egerton.》Chapter 7 - Things took turn
Advertisement
The next morning I woke up around 10. I turned around to see Taron staring at me.
He looked really good even when he just woke up.
"Well good morning" He said , his morning voice was deep and raspy.
"Morning" I smiled looking at his face. I knew this wasn't right and it didn't feel right but I really wanted to make it all be okay. What Taron is doing is wrong and I'm basically helping him cheat on his girlfriend when I don't want to cause them any problems but I just can't help myself , especially since Taron is being a giant flirt.
"How did you sleep?" He asked.
"Well besides the fact that I woke up at like 2AM having no idea where I was and I almost shit myself when I realised I was only in a t-shirt and I had no idea how I got here , I slept great" I said with a hint of sarcasm in my voice. I was quite angry because Taron shouldn't have done this , he should've woke me up and taken me back to my apartment, this was all wrong.
"Oh." I could see his face drop.
"Look Ruby , I didn't want to wake up and all because you looked adorable sleeping there so I picked you up and took you to my bedroom and changed out of those uncomfortable clothes into something more comfortable, I'm sorry if I've disturbed or weirded you out, I apologise" He said , I could tell he realised what he did and now he felt sorry.
"Taron its okay but don't you think its quite weird? You have a girlfriend Taron" I knew that if I said his name twice he would understand that this was a serious issue.
"I know I do but I just wanted to become closer friends with you , if you think I'm trying to cheat , I'm really not. We've never done anything sexual have we?" He asked. I just shook my head saying no.
"See? Then everything is alright" He said and that cute smile was back on his face.
"But like we slept in the same bed and I'm just my underwear and a t-shirt that I assume is yours and your just in your boxers, that's a bit odd innit" I asked again.

"Yeah it is sorry , next time I'll take you to the guest bedroom and make sure that my mum changes you" He said and got up , he seemed pissed.
"Taron are you mad at me?" I asked him.
"No its just your making such a big deal out of something small" He turned around and looked at me, mind the fact he is still shirtless and he is looking hotter than ever.
"Taron this is a big deal , friends don't sleep in the same bed almost naked" I said sitting up , I tried my best not to stare at his lower half.
"Okay next time I'll take you to guest room and that's the end of it" He snapped, put on a shirt, walked out of the bedroom and slammed the door shut.
Is he really mad at me now? God I shouldn't have said anything. Fuck why ....god I'm not even gonna bother.
I got up and quickly changed into my clothes that I wore the day before. I quickly fixed me hair, grabbed my phone and quietly left the bedroom. I sneaked into the main corridor and put on my shoes on as quietly as I could and then left the house. I really didn't feel like seeing Taron anymore , I was ruining his relationship and clearly I was getting on his nerves. I'm pretty sure there are many other prettier girls that Taron can find to be his plus one at the Gala, I'm don't want to go with him. Starting a friendship with him was a mistake, I knew that either way one of us would start to catch feelings but I didn't expect for it to happen so fast, but I'm kinda glad it did because I wasn't really attached to him as I would have been in a couple months.
Luckily the weather was quite good and it wasn't raining so I could walk home in peace. I walked through the huge city and explored some parts that I didn't have the time to see yet. When I was nearing my apartment my phone suddenly started to ring , it was Taron. I quickly declined the call and blocked his number, I don't want to talk to him anymore. I know it may seem pathetic but I don't want to get in the way of anything in his life.

I powered off my phone and walked up to my apartment. When I entered I saw Lilith sitting on the couch and sipping tea , her casual morning routine.
"Oh my goodness bloody hell where have you been?" She asked and stood up.
"I was at Tarons" I sighed.
"YOU GUYS? DID YOU GUYS? DO IT?!?" She asked , she looked really excited.
"No Lil , more like we argued and now we're not talking" I said plopping down on the couch. She sat beside me and I explained everything that has happened, I told her about the diner , the Gala, his house, the part where I slept at his house and my 2AM talk with his mother.
She was shocked , she didn't expect this because she thought I would end up falling in love with him or something.
"See I told you , my love life is tragic and that's why I never bother" I said , now there were tears forming in my eyes.
"No I'm sure there's someone out there for you Ru" She said and gave me a hug.
I decided to go get more sleep and Lilith of course had her Yoga class that attends everyday. When she left I decided to make some tea and then I went to my bedroom, before I could step a foot into my room there was a knock at me door.
Who in the hell was Lilith expecting or was this a delivery? I thought to myself.
I placed my cup of tea on the coffee table and went to open the door. The door revealed someone I didn't really want to see. Taron.
"Ruby" He breathed out.
"Taron.." I said with a serious tone.
"Can we talk?" He asked and peaked into my apartment, probably checking if Lilith was home.
"About what? There's nothing to talk about" I snapped.
"Please...just...let me explain" He said , I could tell he really wanted to talk.
"Fine , you have 20 minutes and then I'm kicking you out" I sighed and let him in, he just nodded. He walked on and sat down on the couch , I did too.
"So talk" I said looking at him.
"I apologise for last night and I apologise for snapping earlier , I'm sorry for anything that I've done that has made you feel uncomfortable or weird. I just wanted you to have fun and enjoy last night" He said and I could tell he really meant it.
"Please Ruby I'm sorry" He was whispering by now. I didn't know what to say so without thinking I kissed him.
He kissed back and soon enough his hands were exploring my body. When I felt his hand touch a certain place I pulled away.
"Taron we can't, you have a girlfriend this is cheating , I shouldn't have kissed you" I apologised. He looked shocked.
"Ruby don't apologise , I've been waiting to do that since I first met you" He admitted. Wait what?
"You've been wanting to kiss me since we first met?" I asked surprised.
"Well not since we first met but from the moment I got to know you" He said and grabbed my hand.
"Please Ruby , let's try this" He said. I didn't know if this was such a good idea but I just simply couldn't do this.
"Sorry Taron I can't" I said.
"I shouldn't have kissed you , this whole thing was a mistake. Taron, I don't think we should see each other anymore." I said and took my hand out of his, I couldn't even look at him because I could see the hurt in his eyes.
"Okay" Is all he said before he stood up and headed for the door. This wasn't the first time he walked away from me like that. Before he left he took one last look at me and then shut the door.
I instantly broke into tears, I must admit, I really liked him but I couldn't see a future for us. He was a famous actor and I was just some Welsh girl trying her best to do well in school and trying to start an acting career but by the looks of it, it isn't very easy.
I just sat there crying for a hours , replying the times we have had together and our now past memories. I didn't know if I did the right or wrong thing but it felt like the right thing because I really couldn't break a relationship and be in love.
Love, a word that I despise.

The Unified States of Mana
My name is Kyra Baker, I’m 20 years old and a university student, and recently I’ve been offered a scholarship to a definitely-not-shady magical academy. A ‘support device’ I was given shows me a list of classes I can take, all involving mana, magic, and Skills with a capital S. To get there I was lumped into a ship full of strange and alien creatures, jumping between worlds as we pick up more and more hapless ‘students’. Things were starting to make a little sense, until the ship crashed into an alien world. Now, I might be getting trained as a rebel soldier, or something? Looking on the bright side, I haven’t gotten this much exercise in a long time and there are plenty of cute girls around. When I develop some Skills and work on my classes, maybe I’ll become strong enough to actually have the time to flirt with them. ~ One of the few surviving records thought to be written by the Empress before her rise to power.
