Sebastian's breathing had slowed, telling me that he was just as exhausted as I was. I felt my eyelids droop, fatigue covering me like a warm blanket.
Just as I was about to allow my eyes to close, I felt the undesirable twist in my stomach as realization settled in. My body instinctively flew upwards, only to be pulled down my Sebastian's arm. How could I have been so stupid?
A gasp mixed with a small scream left me as I struggled under Sebastian's grip, which caught his attention immediately.
> I cried out, shooting out of the bed as soon as I was released.
> I cried out, slamming my hands against his bedside table. > I screamed out, >
Sebastian stood up, his eyes narrowed and darker than usual. he snapped, not understanding what I was trying to say. he muttered after dismissing the forgotten phrase.
I shook my head at him, > I muttered quietly.
> I responded, my eyes meeting his, >

The car ride to the drug store was dead silent and awkward nonetheless. Every now and then I would shift uncomfortably, allowing my eyes to dart to his emotionless expression. I felt the familiar swarm of butterflies fill my stomach as he parked the car, quickly going around to open my door.
I offered him a weak smile and began to walk towards, only to be stopped by the sound of a light chuckle.
>
I spun around rapidly, my arms extending as I swayed to the side. > I questioned, my brow instinctively rose as my voice took on a sharper tone. Sebastian merely continued to smile at me, a teasing look flashing in his eyes. >
I folded my arms tightly across my stomach, a physical cue for him to explain himself.
With a slight shake of his head and a small smirk, Sebastian said, >
>
I stared at him for a few moments, processing his words in my head before allowing myself to react.
That's right, I actually thought before reacting. Now that doesn't that my reaction was any less reckless than usual.
I said, my cut sharp and icy. > Sebastian's eyes widened slightly, his eyebrows creasing in slight confusion.
I continued, >
I felt my blood boil as a slow smirk grew across Sebastian's face. Before I could do anything, he had me pushed up against the brick wall of the building, his large frame covering mine and effectively trapping me.

> he stated, >
My lips instantly parted as I just about to defend myself, but Sebastian cut me off by placing his hand over my mouth.
> I gripped his hand tightly ripping it from my mouth.
> he whispered huskily, his hips slamming into mine, he told me, >
He knew what he was doing to me, that wasn't even a question. Taking a deep breath, I narrowed my eyes and him and placed both my hands on his chest.
> I said, leaning into him, «>
With a quick shove to his chest, I managed to escape and free myself of the cage he had me trapped in. Turning on my heel, I had just made it to the door before he spoke again.
« A little Evelyn. »

I felt my annoyance and frustration grow rapidly as the store clerk moved at a pace worthy of a snail. My hands tightly gripped the box, effectively showing my nerves and anxiety, while Sebastian smirked down at me.
> I finally snapped, looking up to glare at him.
His smirk only deepened as he responded. >
I scowled and focused my glare back to the clerk, who was staring impatiently at me, as if I had been the one wasting her time. I scoffed at him, and dropped the box onto the counter, ignoring the way the corners of his lips twitched into a smirk.
he taunted quietly, « because from what I've heard, these things don't always work too well. >>
Surprise shot through me, but his comment seemed anger Sebastian more. He yanked the boy by his tie over the counter; leaving his legs dangling helplessly in the position Sebastian put him in.
> Sebastian growled, his vein bulging in his neck as he bit out his words.
The boy choked as spluttered for a few moments until Sebastian finally released him, allowing him to fall backwards and double over with a coughing fit. I watched in silent amusement as he rubbed his throat delicately, his snarky demeanor replaced by fear.
<< Sixteen pounds is all, » he rasped out, his eyes avoiding mine.
I smirked out of spite, handing him the money slowly while he shifted awkwardly, obviously uncomfortable in the situation Sebastian had forcibly put him in.
As he reached out to hand me my change and the box, my eyes caught onto something on his wrist. Now any normal person would have just walked away, ignoring the dark black ink that permanently stained his skin.
But I recognized that symbol, and from the twist in my stomach, I knew it couldn't be good. My hand instantly latched onto his wrist and pulled him forward a few steps, so that he was once again teetering against the counter. << What the hell is this? » I snapped, my nails digging into his skin.
