"Whatever you're in the mood for sweetie," Keith smirked.

Neron stood and walked to the kitchen so he wouldn't swing on Keith. Grabbing a bottle of water he turned back to go to their bedroom. He stopped halfway there before turning back and going to a guest bedroom. No need to worry about sleeping with her. That wasn't going to happen...ever.

Mia glared at him. "Sweetie? I'm not your sweetie," she said and stood. "I'll see what I can find to make." She watched Neron walk to the guest room and as soon as he shut the door. She opened the fridge and let the cold air hit her face. Already she felt as if there was a huge chunk of her life missing.

Keith pouted. "Oh come on. Why not?" He stood and followed her back to the kitchen. He nudged her while she stood all zombified in front of the fridge. "Your nipples are hard."

"Stop it. You're not getting anywhere," Mia said and closed the fridge. "You don't waste any time even though I just broke up with the guy I love."

"You don't love him," Keith groaned. "You're just feeling like that because of the bond which is seriously screwing with your head."

"Wow...you are really comforting," she said sarcastically and started pulling things out for dinner. "You're an awesome best friend."

"Of course I am," he told her, wrapping his hands around her waist and pulling her into him. "I've always been there for you haven't I?"

Mia didn't pull away. She rested her head on his shoulder while her eyes clouded with water. "Yeah...you always have. I can always count on you."

Keith smiled as he pressed his lips to her flesh, and moved the hair from her neck. "Yes you can," he whispered.

She moved her arms around him, taking in his hug and relaxing in his arms. It was nice, even if he was using her. It was nice to be held, to be wanted for something, even for just a few moments. She closed her eyes, a stray tear falling from her eyes as she took a deep breath. She didn't want to cry anymore. She just wanted to pain to go away. Keith's lips sucked on her flesh before he pressed them against hers. He massaged her mouth open as his tongue dipped into her throat.

Mia pulled back slowly. "Why are you doing this?"

"Why are you letting me?" He smirked as he caressed her face. "It helps with the pain."

Mia wiped her eyes. "Don't you feel bad? Even a little? You're seducing me when you know it's hard for me to say no..." She looked down, his arms still tightly around her. It really was nice. "I'm your best friend...don't I mean anything to you other than a good time?"

"It's because you're my friend that I haven't truly tried anything till now," he told her. "Enjoy tonight for what it is. No strings attached. Just do it for yourself."

"No strings attached? Keith, you've been trying to get me naked from the moment we met. And back then I was only fourteen. I don't just sleep around with guys for 'no strings.' I gave my heart to Neron...that's why I slept with him," she said slowly. "I can't just sleep with you and it mean nothing without raking myself with guilt."

"Why? He doesn't seem to have a problem with guilt after all that he's done to you?"

Mia pulled from him with narrow eyes. "That's not fair. He doesn't remember."

"So? It still doesn't change the fact that he knows. He knows that you can't keep him, yet he still led you on to believe that you could."

"I knew the consequences," Mia said slowly. "I knew I couldn't keep him...I just didn't know that some other girl had dibs..."

"It's not about dibs," he told her. "It's about who loves him and who he loves more. That's all it comes down to."

"It's not about who he loves more, it's about who he loves. And he loves her."

"Well, if he doesn't love you, than what's stopping you from enjoying yourself? It's not as if you're promised to him."

"I'm not a slut. I don't sleep around. And just because I'm not a virgin anymore doesn't mean that my morals have changed," she said and turned her back to him.

"No, but it does mean that you know that it can make you feel better." He wrapped his arms around her from behind. "You're dying over this. The sooner you try to push him into the past the sooner you'll be able to be happy again."

"It's not so easy. I may be spending a long time with him..." she said in a low voice.

He nuzzled the back of her neck, kissing her shoulder. "Maybe. Maybe not," he whispered. "Regardless, the longer you torture yourself the worse it will be for both of you."

"Torture myself?" She shook her head. "Having sex isn't going to fix the hole in my heart." Even as she said this, her eyes closed feeling his lips on her skin.

"You don't know that." He sucked on her neck, his hand sliding down her body, rubbing her between her legs through the fabric of her jeans.

Mia bit her lip. "Yes, I do." She moved her hand over his, stopping him. "I told you I don't want to be one of your girls, Keith. I'm better than that."

He pressed his fingers upward against her. "You wouldn't be one of them," he told her. "I would treat you right."

Mia bit harder on her lip and took a deep breath. "How?"

He smiled and licked her flesh as his fingers started to rub her once more. "You'd have to find out."

Neron squirmed as he felt himself start to get hard. He frowned as he realized where this sudden sense of arousal was coming from. Keith was working his magic on Mia....

"I won't do this...not when I know that when it's all over, I'll walk back to my room and won't sleep. And in the morning, you will act as if nothing happened. You will return to normal and I will be just another girl....I can't do that..." she whispered.

"What if you weren't just another girl? What if you were the only girl?"

Mia's eyes opened. She pulled his hand from her. "This isn't a joking matter. We both know you don't do well with commitment."

He frowned as she did this. "That's not true. I made a commitment to Sophitia didn't I?"

"You did it for power." Mia turned to him. "Committing to me would mean that it would be me and only me, now and forever...no matter what."

"I can promise that," he smiled. "Can Neron offer you the same?"

Mia looked down. Neron...she missed him already. Even just standing with Keith like this made her feel guilty...as if she was cheating. "And if you break the promise?"

"Have I truly ever given you a reason not to trust me?"

"You lied to me...twice."

"I lied to protect you. I did not want you to find out about Neron's past and have it hurt you."

"But you would rather me fall in love and find out the truth after I had gone in so deep that I had to force myself to let him go?" She looked at him, tears now streaming from her eyes. "You could have told me the truth and I would have ended it before I started feeling this bad."

"I...did not expect her to return," he admitted. "I thought that she would let it go."

"When you love someone like that, you will wait forever just to see one minute of them...if he belonged to me, I would have done the same..."

Keith sighed, realizing that he wasn't going to get anywhere with this. "He does belong to you," he stated. "With a command you could make him never love her."

"I'm not that cruel. I would never order him to feel a certain way. I would never force him to do something against his will unless I knew it was for the best."

"You might find that it is for the best," he whispered.

She looked him in the eyes. Wiping her eyes, she leaned her head against his chest. "But it's not. I know in my heart that he loves her...he just doesn't remember..."

"Tell me. How does your heart feel right now."

"It hurts...it hurts so much. It hurts more than any pain I've ever felt. If I had a choice...I would rip my heart out just to make it stop..." she said against him.

He chuckled lightly and pressed his lips to hers. "I wouldn't go that far," he whispered. His hand slipped to her breast, and as he groped her he deepened the kiss.

Mia let him kiss her for a while, then grabbed his hands. "Stop it."

"Why? You can't tell me that you don't enjoy it."

"Of course I can't. Doesn't mean it's right."

"But it might be fun to experiment," he smirked.

"You are a horrible person, Keith. You are suppose to be comforting me."

"You haven't said no," he reminded her. "And I am comforting you."

"Fondling me is not comforting," she said pushing her hair back with a light blush.

"Well, it's comforting to me." His hand cupped her breast again, squeezing it tenderly.

Mia looked down at his hands then grabbed them. "Stop it. This isn't about you."

"No, it's not. However, I do find that when I need to vent. Sex is a great release for everything."

"I'm sure you do. Sex is always the answer for you."

"You should try it. It works well."

"I did. I liked it. Then I lost it. Now I'm done."

"So you're never going to have sex, ever again?"

"Maybe when my heart doesn't feel like it's been hit with a million rocks..."

"Well, I can help you with that."

She smirked. "Do tell."

"First. I will kiss your pain away. Then I will lick away your sorrow. Finally, I break the rocks with a few powerful thrusts," he smirked.

Mia wanted to laugh. "You are sad."

"You so want me. Don't deny it. At the very least let me show you what I'm capable of."

"You're capable of what every other guy is capable of...heart break, lies, and I beat you have some cheating in there too."

"At least I'm better than Neron," he told her.

Mia was taken back when he said that. "That's not fair."
