New Life : A Second Chance-Chapter 856 - The Choices

But like anything perfect, it would still come to an end.

After their memorable lovemaking session, Kay went to the bathroom to wash up.

[Had a lot of fun last night, huh?]

Kay stumbled and nearly fell in the bathroom.

[B-b-brother…]

[Ah yes, you still remember your little old brother, huh]

Kay was horrified.

She had completely forgotten about their bond.

It had been so long since either of them had lost control, to cause the other to be hit with such intense emotion. Then again, she had been so drunk last night that all the defences she had up would have fallen.

[Congratulations on losing your V-card]

[No no Kyle, it isn't what you think] Kay said desperately, thinking of a way out.

[What do you mean?] Kyle asked, his face in a frown all the way home.

[I .. oh gosh, this is embarrassing] Kay said, gritting her teeth [I'm sorry for losing control last night. I … um … I had a little too much to drink]

[What? So you slept with someone while drunk?!]

[Let me finish] Kay said firmly, glad that he can't detect the nervousness in her voice through mind-speech [I … well … um … there wasn't anyone]

Silence.

[Oh] Kyle said eventually.

Kyle rubbed his temple, seemingly feeling the embarrassment his sister must be in.

[I'm sorry. I was just celebrating last night and indulged a little bit too much in drinking. And, um, well, let's just say I had a lot of fun by myself]

[Okay. Enough. I get it. I thought it was strange. After all, you've never told me about any guy that you were seeing]

[That's because there never was any guy before] Kay said ambiguously.

Yeah, there wasn't any before.

There is now.

Still, she had lied to her brother.

For the first time, she had actually lied.

She felt bad about it but she knew that he couldn't find out about Joseph like this. He would go ballistic.

She didn't know which was worse. The fact that she lost her v.i.r.g.i.n.i.t.y and did not share it with Kyle, or that she was the one that took Joseph's v.i.r.g.i.n.i.t.y.

Either way, Kyle wouldn't be able to handle it.

She needed to plan on how to bring it up to Kyle.

Did she just dig a hole for herself?

When she eventually told him, would he remember this day when she lied to him?

Kay bit her bottom lips.

This was not going well.

She truly feared for the future.

Her future with Joseph.

There was so much to go through.

No wonder Lianne had told her that she would need to be strong in order to face them. Kay looked at her face in the mirror, telling herself that she can do this.

She loved him and she wanted to be with him.

Nothing - not even her own brother - can stop this.

She saw her body that was littered with so many love bites and she couldn't help but smile while blushing a bit.

For someone with zero experience, he certainly knew how to do it, what to do and how to bring a lot of p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e to her.

It wasn't f*cking. It was m.a.k.i.n.g. .l.o.v.e.

Kay hit her cheeks, taking deep breaths when she remembered what had happened. Joseph's face. Joseph's touches. Joseph's …

She could get addicted to this.

No wonder Kyle was like a rabbit. f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂

"What?" Akikai couldn't help but ask finally.

Lianne smirked, resting her chin on her hand as she stared at her 'brother'.

"Nothing," she said, "You do it so well."

Although it was a Saturday, Stephan had gone to the office. He worked every 1st and 3rd Saturday, so they were left alone in the house.

Akikai grunted.

"It won't be long now, don't worry," Lianne said, "You can take off the mask if it makes you that uncomfortable."

"I'm a professional," Akikai mumbled, wondering why he would feel fl.u.s.tered with her intense gaze.

He knew she knew, but it still made him feel like she was really seeing *him* and not Joseph. He prided himself about his skills, and that even when one knew he was in disguise, they would see the person he was pretending to be - not him.

He was a professional, damnit.

She was just 15 years old. Half his age!

So why did she manage to make him feel so?

Urgh.

He buried his nose in the book, trying to distract himself.

? Back at the Hotel ?

Kay and Joseph had their breakfast in the room, both too self-conscious to go out for it - and partly also because they didn't want to part just yet. It all still seemed like a dream, really.

Right now, they were sitting on the sofa, not really watching the television in front of them. The room that Zero had gotten was a Junior Suite, thus had a sitting area ie akin to a living room.

Kay was leaning on Joseph, who had his arm around her shoulders and one hand holding hers.

"It's almost time for you to go back," Kay said softly, looking at their joined hands.

"Mmm," Joseph responded, reluctant to go.

"You have to go back before your father comes home from work," Kay reminded him.

"Mmmm," Joseph replied non-commitingly, and Kay hit his hand.

"Joseph! This is serious," Kay said, looking at him with a frown.

"I know," Joseph replied, looking at her.

Then, he couldn't help it but kiss her instead of saying anything more. He just couldn't get enough of this. The way her lips felt and how perfect she was in his arms.

"You kiss so well," Joseph mumbled in-between kisses, "I'm surprised I'm your first kiss."

"Mmm," Kay said non-commitingly.

In truth, Joseph wasn't her first kiss, but he was the first guy she kissed - and more importantly, the first person she kissed that she was in love with. She didn't count the kisses she shared with Raine, for that was a one-off thing.

Kissing someone when you're exploring yourself, and kissing the one that you love were two completely different things.

The nervousness was different. The sensation was different.

So to her, her kiss with Joseph was her true 'first kiss'.

It didn't take long before their kisses became more passionate and Kay was soon sprawled down on the sofa, with Joseph on top of her, c.a.r.e.s.sing her body.

A knock on the door made Joseph groan inwardly, but he still broke the kiss and got off of her. He helped her up, and took several deep breaths while closing his eyes.

"That must be Zero," Kay said breathlessly.

"Figures," Joseph said under his breath before getting up to open the door.

Sure enough, the stoic face of Zero was revealed as he opened the door.

He gave a slight nod to Joseph before walking in, "Ms Kay, this is for you."

He handed Kay an envelope and she looked at him in puzzlement.

Zero didn't say anything else and she opened it, she found the words written underneath the flap to say, "You have two choices. Choice A is a complicated and longer path. Choice B is the harder path but guarantees position."

Inside the envelope were two smaller envelopes labeled "A" and "B".

"What is this?" Kay asked Zero again.

Zero kept mum and just shrugged.

"What is it?" Joseph asked as he sat down next to her.

Lookin at the items in her hands, he was just as puzzled as she was.

Not getting an answer from Zero, Kay opened the two small envelopes.

In A, it was a pill and in B, two wedding bands.

"What the-?!" Joseph exclaimed, perplexed at seeing the items.

Kay's mind was reeling.

She looked up at Zero, who then handed her a phone.

Putting her ear on it, she heard, "Just listen. Don't speak except with a 'yes' or 'no' so that my brother doesn't know it's me. Do you understand?"

"Yes," Kay replied, completely puzzled at what Lianne was going to say and what she was up to.

"You have two choices right now. Mama most likely knows that you've gone and done the deed last night but you most likely covered it up, correct?"

"Yes," Kay whispered, highly embarrassed.

"So you have two choices. Take the pill and hide the relationship until you find the best time to tell my mother or get married. If you're pregnant and married, my mother can't protest anymore. My father would also have to agree to it. The deed is done after all."

"But-"

"No. Listen to me. There is no 'but' to this," Lianne said.

"You lied to my mother about what happened last night," Lianne said, "So you've basically shot yourself in the foot. You probably think you're now stuck and that it will take even longer to get together."

"I am here to show you that there is still another path open for you."
