Ava`s POV
I slept in my new cheap motel room, then got up on my one mattress bed. I took out my laptop and posted an ad for an affordable apartment and also that i did not mind sharing with a roommate.
I was hoping by next week I would finally have some better accommodation.I bathed with cold water, as there was no hot water from the rundown facilities and went to work all readied up.I could see everyone was happy, the coworkers on my floor. They all seemed excited for the upcoming party tonight and we were even given a half day so we were all clocking out earlier.I promised Lisa to go shopping for what to wear. So as soon as we left, done with our half day of interning, we headed for the mall.It was fun, hanging out and shopping as girls. We entered who knows how many stores and tried who knows how many dresses. Ones which we did not buy and just took pictures for fun. Acting like we were models but promising each other that once we would bothI first stood there, staring at them and not knowing how to feel. I was a bit hurt, that he had moved on and got so easily over me that fast. Then it turned to jealousy and envy as I watched the way she was making him smile. The way he was staring at her, with his full attention.I wanted it to be me. I wanted to be the one by his side making him smile like that.To have him grace me with that charming smile of his which could light up any room.I wanted his hand caressing my arm not hers!But I could not and had no right to feel this way, for I was the one who had rejected him!Just as I was about to turn around in sadness and leave the party to go wallow at home. My eyes widened as Aleksander grabbed my arm instead and started dragging me with him by his side to where they were. “What are you doing???” I quickly said to him!“I told you, I do not want to sit there alone. I'm bored.” He replied as if that gave him th
Ava`s POV“Oh shit!” That was the only thing that came to my mind the next morning. As I woke up naked as the day I was born. Laying on a luxurious looking room and king sized bed. It felt like deja vu again, as I turned around to his handsome looking face as he slept peacefully right next to me. His strong looking hand wrapped possessively around my waist as he slept holding me close.The whole night of everything we had done had me blushing red, especially as I reminisced the party scene where I made the first move. I could not believe I had dared to do that! Me! After arriving, we had first kissed and slept. He told me that the reason he had taken me home with him was so that he could wake up with me sleeping right next to him. But in the middle of the night, we had woken up and made love while lost in desire and then slept again.I decided to get up and go find my clothes, who knows where I had thrown them too. And now without alcoh
Ava`s POV“Let me take you out,” I first gave Damien a surprised stare, as he whispered that while hugging me from behind. We had just finished bathing and both were now wearing clothes. “Like on a date?” I could not help but ask, wanting clarity. I was still wanting to know if we were now just in a sexual relationship or did he also want me. To have a relationship with me. “Yes Ava, a date. I want you in every way possible. Including having you as my girlfriend,” He replied turning me around and staring right into my eyes. Both hands holding my face.I was at first speechless. Not having expected that from him.The last time I had a boyfriend, I had been cheated on. Was I ready to be a girlfriend again? “You don't have to answer now, come lets go.” Damien quickly added having noticed the vulnerable look on my face.I gave him a small smile and followed him. My eyes widened as he led us int
Ava`s POVAs we reached the car, I let Damien drive this time wanting to enjoy my cotton candy. I placed Mr teddy in the back seat. It was fun having the chance to let loose and relive my childhood days. As my mother even when she did not have money, she always brought me to amusement parks and we would just walk around watching everything.But as University came, I never took the time to go to one.As Damien started driving, I wondered where he was taking us and he refused to tell me when I asked. I was now wearing his sunglasses, and listening to some music.My curiosity continued to pique as we drove out of the city as this was turning into a spontaneous road trip and I was all up for it. But then the car stopped at what looked like a private aircraft hangar.As Damien came and opened the car door for me, I was already jumping in excitement on the inside as I wondered what we were here for.Taking my hand into his, he led us inside and my eyes wide
Ava`s POVI felt as if I was walking on air.Who knew love could feel this good!Two whole months and a half had passed of us being in a relationship. Of me dating Damien Payne and having him as my boyfriend. Things were now going great for me. I also moved out of that motel and was now living and renting my own apartment using my intern pay.And yes I still was not letting Damien spoil me too much with his money. He had even offered to buy me a house and I refused. The only time I let him spoil me was during our dates. Ones which were exciting and spontaneous. Like last week Damien had surprised me with a trip to Paris out of the blue for the weekend. We visited the eiffel tower and had delicious french wine. That was the only day I let him shop Paris clothes for me, which right now lay in my wardrobe unopened yet. For I was afraid to stare at the price tag. One time it was a trip on his Yatch and another was a skydiving trip. He was making me try
Ava`s POV“Ava tell me who is it,” “Huh?” I asked, wondering what Lisa was talking about as we sat at a restaurant having lunch before going back to work.“I want to know who this man is who has you all looking like this, your head in the clouds!” she clarified,“I...I have no idea what you are talking about,” I denied, red staining my cheeks. Because she was right, I really was busy thinking about Damien. “Okay, stay like that. And here i thought i was now your best friend,” Lisa continued giving me a disappointed frown. As we ordered and waited for our food to arrive,“Okay yes you are right. I am dating someone but i am not ready to tell you who he is yet. But I will one day,” I finally said, giving in.“I knew it! And by that smile on your face, he really is treating you good huh,” Lisa continued looking happy for me,“Yeah he is,” I r
Ava`s POV“Ava, promise me that you will get checked by the doctor today. If not I will take you there myself. ” Damien stared at me worriedly the next morning as I came out of the bathroom after throwing my heart out. I was still feeling nauseated upon seeing certain food. And today it was seeing raw eggs. As I tried to make a simple breakfast of sandwiches for me and Damien before we left for work. “I will go okay,” I replied annoyed because I was not loving this feeling of being unwell. I hated being sick. “Phone Mrs Fay to give you a sick leave, so that you can go right now,” Damien spoke worriedly while handing me the phone. I knew he would have called her himself but he knew how i did not like it, having him interfere in my work.“No I can't, I am needed today for an important software project.” I replied, then walked over to help him with his tie. “I promise I will go during lunch time,&
Ava`s POV“Father its good to see you and what is the reason for this sudden visit,” I heard Damien`s voice speak. Shocking me that his father was here. He rarely talked much about him but I knew that his mother passed away long ago and he always missed her. I could not believe that Mr Payne senior was in there.“Son, I am here to congratulate you on your engagement to Annabell. While being a famous actress, her father also owns an oil company business.” Upon hearing that I quickly froze.“What are you talking about?” I heard Damien ask. “I saw it in the papers and she phoned me. She confirmed that she is carrying a month old Payne baby pregnancy. So I told her to expect a wedding engagement for we Paynes are honorable men, especially you, my sons.” Hearing that was the final nail to my heart, I quickly turned around in tears wanting to be far away from here as possible. I did not want to hear a
