Chapter Text
Not many can top the top the experience of driving in the Outer Ring, but tonight managed to shatter it Never has a drive home been so perilous in Wise’s life. Despite all odds, he found the familiar safety of the parking space of Random Play. A deep sigh of relief left his body while the lovely and rather forward lady beside him pouted.
“Hmph! All that effort I put in and you wouldn’t give in again.” Vivian huffed. She thought that was some of her best work.
“We might’ve crashed if I had.” Wise countered. “Having an orgasm behind the wheel isn’t exactly easy when you fear dying.”
“I didn’t see anything tragic, but I suppose I can overlook the circumstances this time.”
Pouty, but reasonable. Vivian in a nutshell. Wise was so focused on his driving that he hadn’t noticed she had already worked on undoing the complex parts of her swimsuits again. When his eyes finally reached her face, they noticed her gaze staring at him. He immediately turned his head away, her giggling apparent. Wise removed his beach hoodie and gave it to her.
“Just in case someone happens to be walking by as we go in.”
Ever the thinker. It made her heart dance. Right now, she was the only thing captivating his mind. She intended to make the most of it. “Thank you. Although fair warning. Getting this back may prove rather difficult for you.”
“I’ll cross that bridge when I get to it.” He fixed his shorts.
“And I’ll eagerly await on the other side.” Vivian put on the hoodie that smelled like her hero and lover for the night. It should be a crime to be this happy. Then again, she was a criminal…
They both left the van, leaving the beach supplies behind. They couldn’t be bothered to think about them at the moment. Wise took Vivian’s hand halfway to the back door. Was he trembling, or was it her? Regardless, Vivian didn’t let go. Three steps through the back door was all it took. Frankly that was more restraint than she thought she had. The door had barely finished closing before she stole a long awaited kiss. Big, strong arms wrapped around her back tight enough to make her jump into them and wrap her legs around his waist.
A first kiss should be gentle and pure, yet here she was inviting his tongue down her throat as he carried her up the stairs to his room. This whole day was out of order. Vivian wouldn’t have it any other way. Her back hit the mattress as Wise pressed into her. The only reason she allowed herself to let him escape her grasp was to properly kick off her shoes while he removed his trunks completely. Vivian made moves to pull down the front of her swimsuit, but Wise immediately took her hand again.
“Leave it on.”
He didn’t have to tell her twice. Vivian pulled him down on top of her. Her moans echoed through his lips while his fingers sent chills down her navel, hooking underneath damp fabric between her legs and pulling it aside. Her own hands couldn’t help but grasp his manhood, guiding it directly to her most sensitive spot. Blissful moans escaped her bitten lip as she welcomed Wise back inside her.
“Lord Phaethon~” The name alone robbed her of rationality, raising her hips to meet his thrusts eagerly. No sounds of crashing waves could drown her out this time. Wise was going to know just how wet he had her.
Wise could hardly believe how lost he allowed himself to become. Vivian’s walls sucked him in as eagerly as her own mouth. A toned leg dared to gently slide across his back, prompting him to push down deeper like she clearly wanted.
“Nnnghaaa!” Her voice cracked. Wise was already throbbing; no doubt because of the card ride home. “Leave it in this time!”
“Vivian-”
“Pleeeeeeaaaassseee!” She begged, panting shamelessly into his ear until it was as red as her eyes. “I want it! I want it more than anything~”
Her tongue circled a spot on his neck before biting down, making his thrusts more aggressive. Wise couldn’t hold it in any longer. Five more strokes was all it took before Vivian’s muscles clenched at the feeling of being filled. This selfish switch flipped automatically for her. Vivian rolled the two of them over. Her hands pressed against chest while her lungs took in a good breath. Her one hips kept the pleasure alive, riding Wise’s sensitive cock.
“W-Wait! I just…” His groans clung to every word like his hands did to her rear. Vivian barely raised up off him before sitting firmly into his lap repeatedly. He watched as she shut her eyes and let her hair flow as it pleased.
“It’s so big~” Her voice trembled. Vivian could barely keep her head up as she struggled to maintain a steady pace. Bit by bit, she lost that battle. Her hips gave out suddenly and she found herself pressed against Wise’s body. “Damn it…”
Tangled in pleasure, Wise could still feel her squeezing him mercilessly. “We have all night. No need to burn out.”
“I don’t wanna waste a second.” Vivian found the strength to raise her head and look at him. “For too long, I dreamed about tonight. I want it to last.”
Wise couldn’t believe she said something with such a straight face. Even his heart can’t take such a confession. His blush deepened and will ignited. It would be rude to not do his best. Both his hands cuffed her ass while he thrusted up into her slowly. He saw Vivian’s eyes flicker, her face going through a thousand reactions before hiding them all against his chest as he picked up the pace.
This position felt so different than the rest. Vivian felt as if Wise was digging into her before dragging his tip against a wall on the way out; almost like he was easing a scratch she couldn’t hope to reach. Her own hips began to sway to his rhythm, meeting him in sync to dig deeper. Her lips kissed his chest, finding a nipple to toy with to make him more aggressive. Now he was breathing through his teeth and sinking his fingers into her flesh. Good. Vivian wanted the marks. She wanted to crack through Wise’s composure just this once and make him feel the same way she does every time he smiles at her lovingly. By now she was certain she had made quite the mess, coating the man in creamy desire. A sudden thrust struck her hard enough to make a smack, tensing her body for several more until it was every strike that hilted him completely into her.
Vivian’s fingers clung onto him for dear life, pulling her up just enough for Wise to lean forward and steal her tongue. Maybe one day they’ll have an innocent kiss, but not now. Breathy moans and grunts were every exchange, and each stroke sounded like the two of them were splashing in the water.
“L…ov…y…o” Vivian said in dazed euphoria. “I…lov…uo!” She felt his arms wrap around her back. The intimate embrace broke down any remaining strength she had, forcing her body to succumb to maddening thrusts.
Wise could feel Vivian constrict like a snake squeezing the life out of its me. His body filled her from the second time, bathing him in an afterglow he’s never experienced before. Wise kept her close, just like she wanted. The both of them panted tirelessly as the heat between them finally died down a little. Wise felt as if all that endurance training could’ve possibly saved his life just now. The cool feeling his skin felt as Vivian peeled herself off was an inviting rush that helped his lungs. Although the nice reprieve did get a little warmer as familiar lips caressed his cock, kissing it slowly and with utmost care.
A pleasurable ache stirred Wise. He looked down to see scarlet eyes full of desire glowing faintly in the dark room. Those soft, warm lips peppered the base of his erection. The tongue that begged for attention now cheekily slipped out to lap up their combined mess, going as far as to trace the creases of a heavy package trying to make more cum to pour into her.
“Vivian~” Wise’s hands had no choice but to hold onto the sheets. The mischievous tongue was accompanied by the lips, choosing to join in on the fun by gently sucking on the delicate orbs. “Uuungh!”
That’s it. Those were the noises she wanted. Vivian took her right hand and curled its fingers around the hefty pillar that just ruined her, stroking it slowly as its master grew more sensitive. Her eyes didn’t shy away from his face once. She drank up every expression Wise had to offer, not thinking twice at all when she ran her tongue on the underside of his sack. Vivian couldn’t help but moan. Wise’s taste would never get old, and if it weren’t for the fact she wanted more kisses, Vivian would’ve given her lover a grander experience by going even lower. His poor legs were already shaking. He just might scream if she opened up new areas of pleasure. Choosing to hold those thoughts back, her tongue dragged its way back up until it was rising up the shaft. Vivian wrapped her mouth around the tip. She took a long, deep breath before pushing her head down until her nose was firmly in Wise’s lap.
“AAAANNNGH!”
Looks like she got her wish after all. She could listen to that all night. Just as Vivian began slowly freeing her throat, warm strong hands held her face and brushed past pointed ears. A small yelp of surprise came from her as those tender hands pulled her back down to experience her tightening throat. He finally looked down at her, eyes showing everything she needed to know. She closed hers after that; indulging selfishly in the flavor he provided. Her lips dared to playfully seal around the entire thing and suck lovingly, cleaning him up for the next release. His hands stayed by her ears and she could feel his unwavering gaze. It wasn’t long at all before his hips grew restless, bucking just enough for carefully planned makeup to run.
“You want it right here, don’t you?”
Vivian’s eyes fluttered open for the dry and husky voice. The taste that dripped down her throat grew stronger by the second. Wise was as clever as always. Vivian was exactly where she wanted to be. Her hands once again cradled a heavy package in response, causing those gentle hands of his to get entangled in her long lavender hair that quickly turned into reigns. Not once has her hands served herself, and yet she could her inner thighs running rampant with her lust. She wanted him back inside so much, but this next load already had a destination she gladly accepted. Thick, warm, and potent essence poured straight down her throat as she continued to suck it out of Wise. The young man’s voice went raspy and horse while his grip grew tighter. Vivian didn’t waste a single drop before finally pulling her head away to rest on her knees and reveal a polished cock that twitched in her name.
Her hand rubbed her throat slowly. “Wow…” her voice creaked, now a little sore with no regret. She could still feel it go all the way down like a fire that made her entire body crazy. “You taste good.” She giggled softly.
Wise joined Vivian on her knees. She let his hands roam freely across her stomach and chest. She guided those hands to hook around her top and bunch it up between her cleavage. Her body and mind were caught completely off guard by Wise bending down and sucking on a pale nipple while massaging the other.
“Aagnh, you don’t know what you do to me~” Vivian moaned in one breath, hands holding his head close to keep going.
The small bites against her arched back and craned her neck up. Slowly, they fell backwards onto the mattress. Wise escaped her grasps, staying between her legs as he grabbed them. Vivian’s eyes widened as each one was put onto his broad shoulders. Not a look or word was given as he pushed into her again in a single motion. Air escaped her lungs as Wise bottomed her out. Vivian’s hands made a weak attempt to push against Wise’s overworked core, but he quickly took hold of both of them without stopping a single hip movement.
“Wise! WISE!!!!” Her one core flexed and hips swayed away, making him put more weight down.
“No running.” He said firmly. “I’m gonna give you exactly what you asked for, so don’t pretend you can’t take it.”
Vivian was at an utter loss for words. Her face turned completely red and her head turned away, biting down on sheets ruined with her flavor as her pussy took its beating.
“See?” Wise said. A confident smile in his voice tore through all inhibitions. “I knew you could do it.”
Whatever Vivian did to get to this point in life, she was thankful for it. Her legs shook like they were freezing while her ears were burning to hear more from this new side of Wise; a side that clearly felt her body orgasm in bliss, but continued to thrust just as intensely for the sake of their pleasure. Not a shred of mercy could be found in this room. Only blurry images through pleasure filled tears. Her hands were still his prisoners, each and every finger displaying fierce devotion by slipping in between their captor’s. How many times has she felt weightless now? Vivian hadn’t the foggiest idea. All she knew was after a free fall, her body began to rise immediately, practically sprinting towards another cliff to feel the rush.
As beautiful and captivating as she was, Wise found himself shutting his eyes. Each gland got to know him by name as he brushed by them again, and again. His breathing steadily grew shorter and he’d be lying if he said his muscles weren’t getting swore. That barely mattered to them though. Not when every spasm felt as attentive as Vivian’s mouth playing with him. Each push into her was rewarded with squelching slurps and pulsating walls that wanted to drain him dry. Wise gripped her hands tighter while his movements became restless.
No more words were exchanged. They could feel each other’s limits approaching for this time. Every churn brought guttural growls and gasps from the two who acted like sweat soaked beasts. Vivian could feel her womb make space for Wise to stay in and leave everything. Sure enough, he did not waste the gesture. His hips pulled back before rushing forward with all the strength he could muster, arching Vivian’s back. Her vision nearly whited out completely as every nerve inside her body danced. Still, the girl could feel it, Wise’s release marking her insides once more. Vivian took note of every throb and how it pushed out more seed. Her body could no longer contain his gift. The hot sensation made it well past the brim, dribbling down red lips that were thankful for the abuse.
Wise could not stop moving as their orgasms crashed like waves. Even the tiniest push brought adorable mewling from Vivian. At least, his hands freed hers, only for his wrists to be grabbed and pulled. Wise’s body fell forward between legs that slid off his shoulders. His body hugged tightly and the second subtle lips grazed his own, they became inseparable while their bodies continued to ride out their pleasure. The store owner felt Vivian slip her tongue into his mouth and groaned, deepening the kiss. His arms wrapped around her body as she played with his hair slowly. In between breaths, she repeated what she could barely say before.
“Love you~” Her kisses persisted. “I love you, aangh…”
Neither were keeping track of this wonderful cycle, but if they weren’t careful, they were sure it could last until morning. Thankfully Wise eventually got off her much. Much to Vivian’s dismay, but she could hardly be upset about it. She wasn’t even sure if she was all still there. Her body basked in a moonlit afterglow that was incapable of noticing Wise getting off the bed until he returned by her side with bottles of water and a damp rag. It took several minutes before she found the strength to sit up and enjoy the water. As she did, the strong fingers that once held her in place were now wiping the inside of her thighs and gently cleaning up a garden still weak to his touch.
Wise thought he flipped another switch. His eyes became less lucid the moment Vivian properly grabbed her swimsuit to remove. Once it hit the floor, a big sigh came from her.
“It was starting to get a little uncomfortable.”
“Oh. Hehe, sorry.” He said sheepishly.
She returned the smile. “Trust me, Wise. Don’t be sorry about anything that’s happened tonight.” Rational thinking gradually returned to both of them, bringing back a few inhibitions. “Buuuut, feel free to forget some of the crazy things I said, please?”
“Only if you can disregard mine.”
“Oh I could never.”
“What!? How’s that fair?!” He blushed.
Silence lingered for a moment before shared laughter at the absurdity of it all. Once again, Vivian’s arms found her hero and laid him down beside her. She gently rested her head on his chest to a wonderful sound. “I hope you can indulge me a little longer. Just like this.”
Wise felt his body get heavy, his muscles finally calling a quits. “Sure thing.” As if he had a choice! Not like he was going anywhere though. It’s his room, and he was happy to share it. Wise’s eyes closed again, welcoming rest instead of pleasure.

The rest of the night went by smoothly. One thing lovely about New Eridu was that it was a city that knew how to sleep. Vivian slept like the happiest log in the whole wide world, opening her eyes only now after a full night’s rest. Her vision was slow to return; a rare experience in her life she rarely got to enjoy. Darkness still shrouded the room thanks to heavy curtains. As she sat up and let the covers slide off, Vivian only then realized she didn’t fall asleep under them to begin with.
Her head turned to the left to see Wise, but only found extra pillows. “Did he have to open the store? What time is it?” Vivian groaned and wiped her eyes. She searched for her phone, finding it on a nightstand with a note underneath it. A glance at the screen shocked her with the time. “Noon!?”
Now she was awake. How could she sleep in so late and- well it honestly wasn’t that surprising; especially with the amount of physical activity she performed yesterday. Vivian could feel the sore tension in his legs and hips even as she sat in bed. She turned her attention to the note.
“Sorry I left before you woke up. Please don’t be mad. Something in Wafei popped up that required all hands on deck. Anyways, I will be back before the end of the day to finish store upkeep. Stick around as you want. There should be money under the note. Your proxy, Wise.”
Vivian looked back at the nightstand. Sure enough, he left dennies. There probably wasn’t much in any fridge here, given their extended time away. If Vivian was being honest with herself, waking up alone definitely did a number on her spirit. However, the fact Wise decided to leave a physical note when he could’ve texted this was both silly and charming.
“I suppose I can forgive him, just this once.” Vivian hummed. She carefully got out of the bed and tried standing. Surprisingly not as difficult as she anticipated. That being said, she didn’t dare do more than take modest steps toward Wise’s dresser. Vivian didn’t think twice about taking a baggy pair of gray boxers to wear, and dawning one of Wise’s go to shirts that swallowed her body. It was more or less a dress on her. She was absolutely delighted with herself. “And with this, we’re even~”

Being a disciple has to start coming with a paycheck. A to and from drip was starting to stress Wise out as far as gas prices go. Luckily there were no stops, or a sister asking too many questions on why he was back at the store; although Belle did have a certain grin plastered on her face. Meanwhile Yi Xuan seemed rather accepting and approving of his use of time.
“Do divinations tell…everything?” Wise hoped not. That’s the last thing he needed.
He entered the store carrying the beach items he should’ve dropped off yesterday. “Vivian?” He called out, seeing the store lights were still on. It technically wasn’t closing yet, but any visitors past seven tended to be covered in smoke and smelled like spices. “I guess she already left.” Not surprising.
As he put the items down, Wise felt a twinge of guilt creeping in as he noticed how dust free shelves were, including the ones a Bangboo couldn’t reach. He made his upstairs to double check. Feint murmuring noise began growing that he didn’t notice before. Belle’s room was still closed but his remained slightly opened with flashing lights seeping through the crevices. For some reason he began to feel nervous; Wise approached very slowly, peeking through the doors opening. In a shocking turn of events, the noise he had heard was coming from a girl in his clothes enjoying takeout while watching a movie.
Without missing a beat, Vivian’s head whipped around and caught him looking. “Who’s there!?” She said with intense alertness.
Wise pushed the door open before he would be murdered in his own house. “It’s just me!” He said, watching the look of a formidable and famous thief turn into giddy schoolgirl.
“Lord Phaethon!” Her ears wiggled. Vivian wiped her mouth and stood up. “Welcome back! I…helped myself to a few films. I hope you don’t mind.”
“No, not at all. I just heard noises and thought…never mind.” He stammered.
Vivian’s head tilted with faux innocence. “Oh? I was just eating. What else could I have been doing, all alone in your clothes?” She smiled as the boy’s face grew increasingly red.
“Anyways…” his voice cracked, “did you clean the store by any chance?”
“Ehe, yes. I had plenty of time to kill after all. You’ve lucked out. Cleaning helps me think. Leaving a girl all alone in the morning after what you did, well that could turn into a recipe for an unexpected thriller film.”
Wise watched as Vivian got closer, hands on her hips and a pout on her face as she looked up at him. Honestly it was more cute than intimidating, but she could definitely beat him up before he blinked, so….
“I’m sorry. It was last minute.” He said sincerely.
“I know. You’re not the type to go trampling over people’s feelings or emotions. Even if I didn’t clean your room from top to bottom, I’ve always thought I knew you fairly well.”
“That was oddly specific wording. What-” His eyes immediately looked at his bed, specifically the bed frame. “By top to bottom, you don’t mean underneath my bed too, right?” Great fear hit him. He’s got secrets under there! Paid subscription secrets!
Vivian shrugged as she put her hands up like she had no idea what he was talking about. “I can say I didn’t, if you want me too?” She walked back over to her noodles before they got cold. “Please don’t fret over it. Much like this meal, I’m more than happy to know your tastes. And we both know I’m amazing at secrets.”
Having one of the few people bold enough to act on acquired knowledge like his “tastes” was exactly what terrified him. Oh well, nothing he could do about that now. What was more important was their dynamic as a whole. Wise sat down right next to her.
“Vivian, about…everything, about us. I-” his lips were silenced with a single finger. A gentle smile filled
“Have you been fretting over what’s in my heart? Don’t be. I’ve told you before that I wanted to be the person you rely on most; the one always on your mind. Number one. I’m still far from it; otherwise you would’ve asked for my help.”
“Well to be fair, even I wasn’t aware of the full situation, and it escalated pretty quickly.”
“I’m just grounding myself, not putting words in your mouth. Still, I never had any plans on making what happened a form of shackle or burden. So please, Wise, I hope you have no regrets like I do. Despite your reaction, I can tell you were hoping I was still here. That makes me so happy inside!” She gave the biggest grin.
Without realizing it, maybe Wise had burdened himself, because hearing those words brought a breath back into him. He couldn’t stop himself from letting his head fall on his shoulder. Today has been quite the rollercoaster.
“I have no regrets either.”
“That’s a relief. I probably wouldn’t live with myself otherwise. A thriller turned tragic romance~”
“Please don’t say things like that.” He said bluntly. Soft hands held his head to kiss his nose before getting up with all the trash she created. “I can throw it out.”
“No need. I kept the bag.” She tied everything up and put it in a bigger trash bag she has been using. Wise looked somewhat concerned. “Hmm? Something the matter?”
“It’s kinda embarrassing how dirty my room must’ve been, yet you took it upon yourself to clean it.”
“Oh, all this? It’s mainly from Belle’s room. Your room was just very dusty and you don’t fold all your clothes . I finished it in like half an hour.”
“That… does not surprise me.” Wise finally felt comfortable removing his shoes. He was half a second away from tossing his jacket onto the bed before remembering what Vivian literally just said. Wise took the time to walk over to his closet to look for a hanger.
“How long will you be staying here this time?”
“I have to return tomorrow, then I’m not sure when I’ll be back in the city. I’ll probably leave a little before noon though since things have calmed down.”
“I see…” Vivian trailed off.
Wise found a hanger and stubbornly fought with it before winning. He closed his abnormally full closet then turned around to see Vivian sitting on the edge of his bed. The girl’s piercing red eyes stared longingly at his face while her hands rested beside her. Though born into elegance and etiquette, her long legs were wide apart with the only thing keeping her modest was his own shirt stopping mid thigh. Both of them were flustered all over again; Wise especially.
“You look tired~” Vivian could feel her heart racing. “Hopefully not too tired. Perhaps it’s wishful thinking, but… you offering to let me stay as long as I wanted wasn’t just to clear the air, right?”
A bashful laugh left his lips. “Hehe, am I really that simple to read?”
“I wouldn’t go that far. More like… we’re on the same page. Although I must admit, I have far less strength in my hips compared to yesterday. Your training is bearing fruit. Goodness knows how I’m going to walk tomorrow? Hugo might have to take a mission or two by his lonesome~”
“You don’t sound too torn up about it.”
“He’s a big boy. I’m sure he’ll manage just fine. Enough about him though. Now then, are we repeating yesterday’s film, or should I put new reading material to good use?”
Vivian swayed her head back and forth before letting it fall to her left. In one fluid motion, she turned her body, letting herself comfortably land on the mattress with her head hanging off. An excited grin returned to her face seeing Wise’s rosy cheeks. Speechless, the man simply walked over until his waist was right above eye level. Vivian found the zipper to his fly with her teeth.
“How the- you did that so easily!”
“Lock picking in the dark can be a chore. This in comparison…” Vivian’s treasure landed on her face, flooding her senses in a smell greater than what she wore. “Is far more rewarding.”
Wise felt her tongue travel up from the base to the tip, coiling around it before taking it inside her warm mouth. A long sigh left his lungs. Both his hands pulled Vivian’s stolen shirt up, immediately kneading her boobs like dough while her arms wrapped around his hips. “Can I move?”
“Mmhmm…” She hummed, feeling his hips rock slowly. Vivian could feel him growing bigger every second until her mouth was completely full and Wise went down her throat.
Breathing was a bit of a struggle, but not so bad as to quit. Priority was measured breaths through her nose instead of any fancy tongue tricks. It didn’t seem to be a problem for her love. Wise didn’t even try to hide his moans. Looks like today was quite the endeavor for him. Vivian pursued her lips and tried to see if she could suck some of the stress away. His grip on her nipples became rougher instantly. No problem. A little pleasure was manageable, until his right hand made a journey down her stomach. The slow crawl of his fingers made her legs restless right up until the point two digits slid underneath the waistband and curled their way inside her.
Wise’s fingers had no problem pushing deeper inside, making Vivian’s mouth fall open. Hot, shaky breaths kissed his erection and made him buck without meaning to. As pleasurable as the experience was, it wasn’t long before Vivian tapped the outside side of his thigh. Wise immediately pulled himself out of her throat; Vivian sat up right with several coughs accompanying her. Now he was a little concerned.
“Are you okay!? I can get water.” He looked around to see where she might’ve put the fresh ones he kept.
The search was interrupted by Vivian however, who held up hand before giving him a look with flushed red cheeks and half lidded eyes. “Looks like I’ll need to work on my concentration.” She panted, getting up to stand.
Wise thought she needed a minute to sort out the rushing blood to her head, but was taken aback when her thumbs pulled down her also stolen underwear.
“Sorry, Wise. Just like at the beach, I can’t seem to ignore my own urges at all around you.” Vivian put her hair over her shoulders and faced away from Wise.
She bent at the waist over wonderful smelling sheets. She tempted her crush further by running her right hand up her leg before pulling against her upper thigh to show him everything. Vivian glanced over her shoulder only for a moment before a gentle yet firm left hand ran through her hair and pressed her head down. The more aggressive right hand moved her right leg up until her knee rested on the bed. Now the way he wanted, it restrained both her tiny wrists behind her lower back. Eyes flickered in staggering pleasure the moment he pushed inside her again. Now she was the one who felt a weight lifted. Her left foot struggled to properly remain on the floor, leaving her with practically no leverage as he made her body remember last night. Wise might not be able to see her face, but through the rough moans and whimpers, a sultry smile painted the corner of Vivian’s lips. Another night with no regrets. What more could a girl ask for?
