~ [3] Bedded By The Mafia Boss ~
Anayah sat curled up on the couch in Nicole's apartment, her face buried in her hands.
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
Anayah, please stop crying. It's breaking my heart seeing you like this.
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
*looked up, her eyes red and puffy*
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
I just... I don't understand, Nicole. I gave him everything! And he... He betrayed me.
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
He was with another woman, enjoying it like I never meant anything!
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
Evan is an idiot. He doesn't deserve you. You're worth so much more than this.
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
*wiped her tears with trembling hands*
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
I thought I was enough. I thought he loved me. *sob*
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
He doesn't know what love is Anayah. But you? You'll heal. You're strong.
*reassured her*
Anayah feel silent for a moment, staring at her lap.
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
I didn't feel strong last night, Nicole.
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
*frowned*
What do you mean?
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
*hesitated, her cheeks flushing slightly*
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
After I found out about him... I couldn't take it. I just wanted to forget everything, even for a moment.
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
Forget? What did you do?
*leaned forward*
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
I... I slept with a stranger.
*whispered*
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
*eyes widened in shock*
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
Anayah! Are you serious?
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
Yes.
*her voice trembled*
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
I didn't plan it. I was walking out the hotel room when a man shoved me inside. The most handsome man I've ever seen.
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
It looked like he was running from someone... until we—
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
Wait, your "first" was with a stranger?
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
*nodded*
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
I couldn't think straight. He came over, and before I knew it...
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
Oh my God.
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
What was he like?
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
*cheeks reddened*
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
He was perfect. His eyes, his voice, everything about him. He's desperate at that moment.
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
Desperate? How?
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
He looked like he was drugged. He was... losing control.
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
*mouth fell open*
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
And you helped him by...
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
I couldn't stop myself. He was so... intense. And I was so broken.
Nicole shook her head, her emotion a mixture of worry and confusion.
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
Anayah, this is insane! You just met him. What if he was dangerous?
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
I didn't care at that moment. All I wanted was to forget Evan, to forget my pain. And he... He made me feel live again, even if just for one night.
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
*her voice filled with both guilt and longing*
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
*sighed*
Do you even know his name?
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
No, I didn't ask.
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
Anayah, this isn't like you at all.
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
I know. But last night... It felt like I was someone else.
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
Do you regret it?
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
I don't know. Part of me does, but another part... Another part keeps replaying his touch, his voice.
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
*her expression softened*
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
You've been through so much. Maybe this was your way of finding some kind of release.
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
Maybe. But now, I'm left with more questions than answers?
Nicole wrapped her arm around Anayah again, pulling her close.
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
You'll figure it out, Anayah. One step at a time. For now, let's focus on getting you through this heartbreak.
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
Thank you, Nick. I don't know what I'd do without you.
~ Nicole Romano ~ [Anayah's BFF]
You'll always have me. But promise me one thing—take care of yourself. You're so much more than Evan or any fleeting moment.
~ Anayah Delacroix ~
I'll try.
