Richard left the party because he had something urgent to do. He told his chauffeur to take me home when I was ready to leave. The party was boring but there was good food so is stuck around.
I sat alone on a table drinking my wine and watching as people laughed and chatted away. Some danced and some seemed to be engrossed in serious business talks. My eyes roamed the room
"Alone.?" Christians hot breath fanned my neck, making me bite my lip. His closeness always does something to me, and he knows that. He took a seat beside me afterwards. How does he always find me?
"Not really. I was happy being alone" I said faintly. I wasn't ready for his bad mouth right now.
"You know you look awful in that dress"
Great! What I was waiting for!
"Thank you"
"It wasn't a compliment. You look better of in jeans and sweatshirts not dinner gowns"
"You're t
My eyes scanned Christian's eyes for any missing emotion but there was none. It seemed so real.His eyes searched mine too."Tell me Marcy. Did I hurt you?" He asked again. I gulped a tear down."Hmm" I couldn't speak. He pulled me into his arms and I was stunned. It was a new feeling of warmth. Not Garry's or Richards or even Judy or her boyfriend but the warmth of Christian. I held his charcoal suit in my hand clenching it. The first time I'd hugged him, he still smells so nice and minty."I'm sorry Marcy" he said again.I was getting worried at how calm and caring he was. And towards me for that matter. No! I couldn't believe it yet. It was too good to be true."Christian... "I wanted to pull away from the hug but his grip on me was too strong."Liano... What is wrong with you?" I asked calmly and almost like it wasn't a question.
I wrapped my arms round Christians neck drawing him close to me. I need more. His hands cupped my cheek and his tongue slipped into my mouth. I lifted my head up so he could get a good entrance. It was passionate and lasting until he pulled away. I want more I almost beg.We were both breathing hard. He pushed me to the wall and pinned my hands above my head. He wanted more just like I wanted more too. We just crave each other."Marcy"I don't blame him for only saying my name. Right now, I was also speechless. All I could think of was the kiss we just shared."Christian my hands. Your hurting my wrist"He pulled away. "I'm sorry"He walked towards his bed and sat down. He buried his face in his palms."Does it hurt? Your wrist"I shook my head slowly. "Not anymore""Um.. You should get going now
Judy kept glaring at me all the while I was dressing up. I knew what she was thinking. I was falling for Garry's trap again but what's the worst he could do. I turned my back to her so she could help me with my hair. She was good at packing French Styles, royal styles, bridal styles and all kind of styles you can think of."You look too good tonight to be with Garry" Judy finally blurt. I rolled my eyes and wore the rhinestone earring Garry got me last year."I'm giving him another chance to prove his love for me""What about you? Do you love him or you're just pitying him." She asked as she continued with my hair. It was ready looking good and she wasn't even done yet."I don't know Judy. I just need time""That's stupid. Right now you guys are just acting as sex toys to each other. He doesn't love you"I got up abruptly and turned to my best friend. "I'm willing to take
Christian took slow steps towards me and when he stood directly in front of me, he took off his jacket and wrapped it round my exposed body.I blinked waiting for his outburst but it never came. He pulled me in for a hug, kissed my hair, then pulled away."Christian"He let out a little smile and then, carried me bridal style. I held unto his neck my eyes never leaving his. He was focused on the road and I kept on blinking away the tears that formed in my eyes. It was the perfect shoulder to cry on and he didn't seem to mind. He just kept on walking. I drowned my self in tears until I slept in the arms of Christian Vance.Christians POVThe thought of ever seeing tears in Marcy's eyes always set up something in me I didn't understand. And today at that stupid fucked up party I didn't want to attend but thank God I attended. I saw tears in Marcy's eye

I close my cake shop early so as to catch up with Judy at the mall. Judy is my friend, best friend who loves to shop. We leave in an apartment together. Judy works at one of the good publishing enterprise while I'm just a baker. But we live fine. She manages the essential bills sometimes, while I take care of the groceries and little things round the house.My phone rings and I pick it up from my purse. Judy."I just left the shop" I said and she shrieked. She was so... Girly. I stuff my shop keys into my purse, walking for the crossroads just in front of my shop. It was car free."Be quick! We got a lot of shopping to do. Judy is what can be called an everyday clothe Maniac. "Judy you're are such a..."Screech! ...My eyes fluttered opened and the first face I saw was a lady in white. And the surrounding was new. My first thought was, I'm in heaven! But
I blinked rapidly waiting for him to say something but he didn't, he only returned to his work. He probably didn't remember me from the incident. Richard ushered me out, and I smile at the rest men, walking out if the tensed room."Nice to meet you Mabel" he said as he kissed my hand. A cute gesture, I like that."You too Richard".."Call me Rich" he said and disappeared back into the conference room with a smile on his face. He was handsome and had a curly blonde hair with one dimple, did I ever mention that last part? Grin!...When I got back to the apartment, I noticed a boot by the side of the door. Judy was not home and so was Chad. Who was it then?I carefully stepped into the parlour and my face lit up."Garry!" I yelped and hopped in his arms."Hey babe. I heard what happened on the news. Are you alright?"
Richard walked towards me with a sweet smile plastered all over his face. His dark suit, held his body nicely, and I may not have seen the expense tag but I know it's cost enough to buy half of my little shop."Good morning" I grinned."Morning Miss Corano" he grinned."Call me Mabel" I ogled him and he chuckled before taking a stool in front of me."Your shop is rather furnished with modern stuffs" he said and I giggled."I'm modern, thank you" I brought him some cupcakes and he smiled before taking it."So how's your Daniella?" I asked him and he shrugged. After yesterday, he got my contact from the news and texted me. We talked a bit. Danielle is his daughter and her mom died of leukemia."She's doing good except she keeps missing her mom" he gurgled, placing his hand on the counter and next to mine. "I came here to ask you a favour Mabel"
