This is a smut chapter, read at your own risk.
Enjoy.......

Dimitri's POV
.....
"Oh Nina! I told you this won't work", I said immediately Anita left the house.

Nina just smiled and shook her head like I didn't know a damn thing. Perhaps, she's right!

"Is my job done?", Tasha, the girl I hired asked me.

"Yes, it is! Thank you!", I said handing her the agreed price.

I found her on my way back from the hospital, she needed money for college and I needed her so that my love can be sane.

That was why I ordered aunt to go and stay at our other house away from the estate.

Now Anita just left! It hurts me so much that I had to stoop so low. She got me a gift, the very first gift I'm sure she has ever gotten for anyone and I threw it in the trash.

I called Tasha immediately I threw Anita's gift in the trash and I told her to get me the exact same boots and wristwatch Anita got for me.

Now Anita has left! She didn't show any emotions, she didn't even look at me and boy did she not grudge when she was asked to get Tasha a glass of water.

I feel like a fool. A fucking damn fool! I will never forgive myself.

"Dimitri? Follow her!", Nina shrieked at me.

"But why? She's probably going home, never to return, I wish she'd just cry already!"

"Isn't the direction of her house towards the main road?", Nina asks impatiently.

"Yes, so?", I replied back nastily, agitated at myself for letting Anita have the wrong impression on me, without even accomplishing the task at hand.

"Then why did she go towards the river?", Nina asks alarmed

And my head finally clicks at the realization of what Anita is going to do.

She is going to drown herself!

I rush out of the house but as I got to the river, I saw her standing by the bank, staring unconsciously into space.

I sighed in relief that at least she isn't that stupid to take her own life.

I then heard her sobbing. Is this a joke? Is she fucking playing pranks on me? She is crying!

Just to confirm that I wasn't hallucinating, she unconsciously touches her face with her hands and brings them down. It was then I spotted the tears on her skin.

I smile and laugh and stopped when I noticed she didn't move. Maybe she didn't hear me.

"Anita", I called out but still she didn't hear me. What is she so engrossed in that she can't hear me?

I watch her move deeper and deeper into the water. It's like she was praying inwardly and for every prayer, she said, she went deeper into the water until I could see her no more.

I tried calling out to her to stop, but she didn't even budge. I tried running to her and kiss her till every breath is knocked out of me. But it's like a force field was holding me back.

"Are you mad Dimitri? Have you lost it? She's drowning to her death and you're just staring. If anything should befall her, I'll Blame you for the rest of my life for causing her death!", Nina says, but I just couldn't move or talk.

"Dimitri!!!", Nina cries, landing the dirtiest of slaps on my cheeks, then did I come out of my trance.

"Anita!!!", I screamed before I finally ran to her.

************

"She'll be alright, Mr Collins. Thanks to your Knowledge in medicine, she should be waking up soon. She would have woken up a long time ago but there's no food in her digestive system plus she's not fighting to stay alive. It is like she has made a pact with death and is willing to embark on the journey of the unknown", the doctor said medically.

"My Anita will fight death itself and won't embark on any stupid journey", I shouted.

"Of course, but there's no guarantee. I must take my leave now, please do call me if anything goes wrong", he says slyly.

"Definitely, you have overstayed your welcome, Nina will see you off", I said through clenched teeth.

If this old man hasn't been our family doctor for decades, I would have given him the beating he deserves for his negative words.

But I do like him. He is not like most doctors who would give you false hopes. The way he sees it is the way he says it.

After I dragged Anita out of the water, her pulse and heart rate was decreasing. I quickly ordered Nina to call the doctor!

I don't want her to be put in the hospital. I know she hates them.

I quickly gave her a mouth to mouth resuscitation and her pulse rate increased by just a minuscule.

I decided to put all those things I learnt in biology to practice. I thought of what to do and decided to give her a cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR).

And it worked. But her breathing was low and just then the doctor came in.

Now, as I stare at her calm face, I feel guilty, so guilty. I feel responsible for her near suicide attempt and I began sobbing.

The last time she woke up from her coma at the hospital, I was not there. But this time, I'll be here, I'll make sure my face is the first face she sees. I will make it up to her no matter the cost.

"Dimitri!", my name rolled of her tongue with flair. I look up at her and I blush at the realization of what is happening.

She's dreaming of me and it's dirty dreams. She begins to moan my name and I suddenly feel the bulge on my pants.

I stand up and close the door. I move back to the bed and trace my fingers on her thighs.

Why not make this dream into reality? I thought to myself.

I move my hands and trace them slowly, so slowly, she shivered and I smiled.

I slipped my hands into her big T-shirt and felt her soft breast against my smooth palms. I raise up her T-shirt and suck on her breast.

"Dimitri!", she moans my name again. While my mouth was doing it's job, I unclad her Jean shorts with my hand and move to her soft spot.

"Oh fuck! She's wet! So fucking wet!", I said breezily to myself, after removing my mouth from her breast.

I dive my finger in her panties and begin to stroke gently. With encouraging moans from her, I begin to stroke faster.

I start going deeper and deeper, touching places I've never touched before, stroking faster and faster, fighting the urge to give her a head, until she let out a piercing scream.

I slowly removed my hand and licked it. I have never done this with any other girl. All I do is fuck em real hard and that's it, no emotions attached.

It was after I had buttoned her shorts into place that I looked at her and my skin nearly jumped out of my bones in fright.

She is awake and she is... Smiling?

Anita's POV
After slipping into unconsciousness, I saw my self surrounded by black. Pitch blackness. And it was clouding my thought.

I tried breathing but I couldn't. I was struggling for air, then I stopped struggling when I realized that I am dead.

I had taken my life and I never got the chance to tell Dimitri how I felt.

I felt dead, yet somehow, someone kept me alive. The thought of just one person kept me going.

I trudged on, not knowing my destination until I finally saw him...

He ran to me and hugged me, then he brought his lips closer to mine and kissed me.

He started slowly but I wanted more, I needed more...

I could literally feel my wetness and then I moaned out his name... Dimitri.

It was when I opened my eyes and saw him staring into space buttoning my shorts, did I realize that I had been dreaming of him!

He even managed to appear in my dreams and make me come into orgasmic pleasure.

He looked at me and our eyes locked and I smiled.

He hugged me so tight and he began to cry.

I also began to cry too! All the memories of what happened to me came flooding back.

Jesus Christ! I cried! I fucking cried!

I began to wail and trash around.
He tries to calm me down but was rewarded with a dirty slap.

I abruptly stood up and started trashing the room. From the cabinet, to his wardrobes, to his drawers where he kept saucers and teacups. I even managed to lunge three saucers at him. Thankfully, he dodged it.

He did nothing to stop me, the only thing he did was to not get in the way. He just watched me go through my emotional outburst silently.

Until I collapsed and wailed on the floor. He quietly left the room and hours later, he came back with porridge.

I wanted to push the food away but his stern glare made me rethink my decision.

He silently fed me and within three minutes, I gobbled down the entire bowl of porridge.

He hands me some water to drink and napkins to clean up my mouth.

"Are you ready?", he asked more to himself than to me, because if it was to me, he'd have looked at me and waited for my reply.

He just let out a heavy breath and pulled me closer to him before he began;

"Anita, please forgive me! I didn't mean to hurt you. The other day at the hospital, when you were unconscious, the doctor told me to make you cry in order for you to retain your sanity. I didn't know what it is that could possibly make you cry. Even if we watched the most heart breaking films in the world, you'd never cry. Nina suggested I make you jealous by playing dirty, but I..."

I cut him short with a kiss. He doesn't have any right to apologize. I should be the one apologizing. I guess it's time for me to say sorry. I broke the kiss and began;

"Dimitri, you're not at fault, I'm the one at fault. For that I'm... I'm... Sorry! I'm sorry Dimitri for everything I put you through. Ever since I got into your life it's been trouble. If I hadn't been so stupid, I wouldn't have thought of drowning myself and..."

He cuts me short with a kiss of his own but I won't let him hold down my feelings. I need to stop bottling my anger. I need to let it go.

"No Dimitri, let me finish", I say almost breaking down again.

I hate tears, so fucking much!

"Are you sure?", he asks, uncertainty laced his tone.

"Yes I'm sure!"

"Alright, but if you feel..."

"I love you Dimitri!", I blurt out, cutting him short.

"I guess I started loving you the night you played for me", I say pointing towards where he played the piano.

I stand up and move towards the window that overlooks the river.

"I attempted to take my life, not because I was jealous, heck you had every right to move on, after all, I said I didn't want you, I attempted to take my life not because I was, I am in love with you Dimitri Lucas Collins", I stopped, allowing the tears to flow freely, but I still faced the window, so he wouldn't see me as weak.

"You are the first guy that has made me feel things I've never felt before, you were the first guy that I allowed to bully me, I guess it was because I was attracted to you and I felt that if bullying me was the only way to get you notice me, then bully me"

"You are the first person I apologized to and you are the only person I love"

"You're the only person I'll always want to be with. The other day you spoke rudely to me over the phone, I felt hurt. And now that I think about it, I felt hurt because I love you"

"But I was scared to tell you this because I felt you didn't love me, I thought you hired that girl to prove your worth. I know what you want Dimitri, you want my body and I can't give you. I'm not your type of girl. If you say you love me like you do, then please let me go, please forget about me, please move on because I can't give you my body. I'm still young. Only sixteen! You also are young and why you sleep around is beyond my capability to understand and comprehend", I say still sobbing.

"Anita, look at me", he ordered.
I quickly wipe my tears and turn around but was met with a very hard chest. I slowly looked up and fought the urge not to gulp.

"That's where you're wrong Anita! When I say I love you, I mean every fucking part of your fucking body", he says grabbing me by the hand and pulling me closer.

"I just don't sleep around for the fun of it, I sleep to forget my parents and I know I still can't classify what I did as right".

"If you don't want us fucking, fine, no fucking. As long as I'm with you. If anything I should be the one scared. You told me you want to be a player, that you have a very high libido"

"For fucks sake Anita! What part of I'm in love with you don't you understand? I'd wait till you're ready but please don't leave me, don't tell me to forget you, don't tell me to move on", he painfully said and I remove my eyes so he wouldn't see the tears.

He uses his left fore finger to tilt my head towards him. He stared deeply into my eyes,

"It's okay to cry, it doesn't mean you're weak, it just shows you're human and you have feelings too so just let it out", he says smiling.

"I love you Anita Valerie Reeves and I'd give up anything, except my sister, to be with you"

I laugh at the last part and he inches closer and closer until our lips touch and he begins kissing me with a lovely passion.

"You're mine Anita, mine and only mine", he says each word peppering them with kisses.

Indeed, I am his, I thought smiling.

Perhaps, this could work out.

I just hope this reality wouldn't be like my dreams.

I hope they won't Fade To Black
