”P-Please stop."

“P-Please stop,” is the only thing you can say to her. Valerie just laughs and chuckles hearing your response.

She then puts her hands on your arms, which causes you to jump in your seat. She once again giggles due to your reaction. “You don’t have to be so jumpy,” She says in a sweet tone.

“I'm not like Donna, I don't take something by ****. I like to take my time and ease my way in, care of it, and cherish it. Love it…” She says the last part while looking into your eyes.

You can feel your face turning red, you don’t know what to say. You try to come up with a response, but you can’t. You were too distracted by the sound of your heartbeat.

“What happened to you?” She asks, snapping at you out of your trance. “You used to be so witty, so sarcastic. You used to come up with comebacks on the spot.” She says while sighing.

Then she interlinked her fingers with yours. Almost as if you were a couple. “And now you are so timid, so docile. It makes me want to grab you and lock you up. Keeping you safe forever.” She says while looking into your eyes.
