Chapter 136 136
I just looked down at what she said. She has experience with this, so she knows what my outcome will be. This also happened to her before. She was the one who was left heartbroken. That's why she learned her lesson after that.
"You'll really have problems if that guy is in love with someone else. He's obviously just using you to distract himself or maybe he's just using you as a rebound, a playtime... You better stop it as soon as possible, Crescent."
I couldn't answer. I just sighed and played with my fingers. Ivana held my hand. I looked at her, and she was looking at me seriously.
"You can't get out of it anymore?" she asked.
I couldn't answer, but I knew what her question meant... I just bit my lower lip then nodded.
Ivana sighed and scratched the back of her neck. "Don't say I didn't warn you, huh." She shook her head. "For now, these are the important rules you need to remember... One, always practice safe sex; you're old enough, you know what I mean."
I just nodded at what she said and didn't say anything else. She might pull my hair out if she finds out what's on my mind.
"Second, try not to fall for his charms or whatever it is. Always set boundaries. Fuck buddies are fuck buddies, nothing more, nothing less... Try your best not to fall for him, Crescent," she said seriously.
I just swallowed and nodded even though I know I'm a bit hesitant about that one... But I need to take it seriously. Everything Ivana said is true, and she's saying it for my own good.
"And the most important thing... Make sure you won't get pregnant. Take contraceptives or something. Just make sure he won't get you pregnant."
I froze at what she said. She just crossed her arms as her eyes narrowed. I just bit my lower lip and nodded. I'll make sure it won't happen.
"Men like him might just make you a single mom. I know a lot of single moms, and believe me, I can already see that it's not easy. So it's better to be careful. Just enjoy the sex, only the sex. Don't get involved with him in issues other than that. Only meet when you feel like having sex. Don't let him be the only one using you; you should also use him..." she said while nodding.
I sighed and nodded... Right, I should listen to what she's saying.
"Okay, that's all. I also have somewhere to go... Get some rest because you look so tired," she said meaningfully and raised her eyebrow at me.
My cheeks immediately heated up at what she said. "W-What are you talking about?"
"Oh, you're a pervert now, too, huh... Okay, bye for real now. Remember what I told you, okay?"
I was still thinking even after Ivana left. I couldn't even go to the gym anymore because my body really hurts, especially my thighs. I'll just go tomorrow. I'm sure it'll be a little better by then.
I just slept all day. When I woke up, I prepared to cook dinner. I had a long sleep. I'm sure I'll have a hard time sleeping later. I'll just read some books.
I was about to turn on the stove, but I stopped when I heard someone knock on my door. I tilted my head and scratched the back of my neck. I'm sure it's not Ivana. She has a duplicate key here in my apartment. That's why she can just enter whenever she wants.
I just went to the door and pressed my ear against it. "Who is it?"
"Luca."
My eyes grew wider when I heard that familiar voice. I immediately opened the door. I was surprised to see Luca standing there with two plastic bags. My forehead creased, and I looked at the back of him, puzzled... he had a black backpack strapped to his back, and it looked like it was full.
"W-What are you doing here?"
"You don't want to stay at my house... so I'll just stay here instead," he said and just entered.
I just blinked and quickly closed the door, then faced him. "You can't stay here, Luca!" I said immediately, and my forehead creased.
"Why not? I'm harmless," he said, pretending to be innocent.
I sighed and massaged my temple. "Why do you want to stay here?" I asked and put my hand on my waist.
"Just because," he said and shrugged.
Luca looked around. I bit my lower lip and was thankful that I had cleaned the house earlier before I slept.
"I brought food. I'll be the one to cook," he said and lifted one of the plastic bags he was holding.
I just sighed and nodded. He seems unstoppable. It's okay, too, so I won't be the one cooking anymore. Whatever he wants.
"Where's your room?" he asked and removed his backpack from his back.
I fixed my glasses and pointed to the door on my left side. Luca came closer to me and kissed my lips before he went to my room and entered. I just shook my head and sat at the table. Luca came out right after; it looks like he just put his things there. He went to the kitchen counter and started cooking. I just bit the insides of my cheeks and watched his back. It's hot in my apartment, so he took off his leather jacket and handed it to me. He also stole another kiss on my lips before he went back to the counter.
I tried to calm my raging heart. I took a deep breath and tried to remember everything Ivana told me earlier. But my mind was clouded right now that he's in front of me... I just shook my head and quietly watched him cook our dinner.
Luca immediately served the chop suey he cooked on the table. I just smiled because he also knows how to cook rice. Luca just fanned himself... he's sweating... but he still smells so good.
"Do you still want to stay here? It's hot here; there's no aircon." I chuckled and crossed my arms.
Luca smirked at me and flicked my forehead. "You must have forgotten that I'm a soldier, baby. I'm used to the heat," he said with a smirk.
He tilted his head and removed his shirt. I unconsciously bit my lower lip as my eyes went down to his perfectly toned and tattooed body. I looked at his face again... he was also looking at me.
"You're so hot, Luca," I muttered while staring at him.
He was visibly stunned by what I said, even I was surprised by what I said. I froze when he immediately came closer to me. I just swallowed when I noticed that he covered our food with a plate.
"W-Why did you cover it?"
"We'll eat later," he said seriously while staring intently at me.
He put his huge hand on my back and pulled me closer to him. I just closed my eyes and hugged his nape when he suddenly crushed his lips on mine. I didn't hesitate, and I immediately kissed him back with equal fire. Luca held my waist and carried me. I immediately wrapped my legs around his waist.
I don't know how we made our way into my room... I don't care anymore. I also don't care even if my body is still a little sore.
I just felt my back touch the bed as Luca and I continued our hot kiss. He immediately positioned himself in between my legs as his hands went inside my t-shirt.
Luca took the plastic bag that was on the bedside table. It was one of the things he brought earlier... I just froze when he dropped the contents on the bed... My lips parted...
They were boxes of condoms... lots of boxes of condoms.
My eyes widened and looked at Luca. He took one box and opened it. He also threw the contents on the bed... He smirked at me and licked his lower lip.
"How many boxes are we gonna finish tonight, hmm, Crescent?
