"Come on you can't be serious!" I groaned at my phone after reading the text message Daniel had sent to me. He was supposed to come pick me up after work but according to his text message the route he normally took was heavily blocked by traffic and so he had to go through a different path.I was pretty annoyed because I had expected him to come pick me so I didn't take any change of clothes since he had been the one to drop me in the morning. I just left home in my swimsuit and nothing more. "Did you really have to do this tonight?" I mumbled aloud to myself as I trailed down the street that led to our house. It would take me at least forty five minutes to walk back home and it was past eleven p.m . I finished at work by 9 p.m. The only reason I was here till this time was because I was waiting for Daniel to come pick me up and by now all the shops around us were closed and it was starting to get lonely and creepy so he asked me to leave because he would not be able to make it in
Daniel and I had packed our bags the day before and headed to the airport. I called my sister and she sent one of the Banks' drivers to come pick us up so here we were pulling up in front of the Banks mansion."Weird to say this but feels good to be here again," I told Daniel, undoing my seatbelt and getting out of the car. I actually looked forward to this whole thing."If you say so." He chuckled.We both got down, Daniel and the driver took our bags from the trunk and led us into the mansion. I loved the familiar smell of the wet bushes. "Well it's the moment of truth," I thought as we made our way to the main entrance I had so many questions and I was finally going to get answers to all of them.Sarah was waiting at the door, she pulled me into a hug the moment she saw me squeezing the life out of me, "I can't breathe I cannot breathe." I flailed my hands around trying to get the hell out of her grip.She let me go after bursting into a long laugh, "I'm so sorry, I just got so exc
The next morning was a hassle. Carol had come upstairs banging on the door of our room trying to force everyone awake and it was genuinely annoying since we'd slept so late last night."We have to go shopping, get up." She raised her voiceDaniel's arm was around me and he groaned when I tried to get up. "Don't leave." His thick and husky voice called in a low tone, his eyes still closed."I don't think she's going to stop," I groaned, snuggling closer to him."She'll have to give up, the doors locked, she's not forcing her way in." He said and I nodded against his chest and tightened my hold around him.I winced as she suddenly began to pound on the door. "Yeah she's not going to give up." I groaned and reluctantly got to my feet.Daniel still stayed in bed as I managed to pull myself towards the door to talk to her. I still didn't know how she was related to the family but I didn't like her.She was pounding heavily when I unlocked it and she'd almost hit my face, "what is it?""You
The day was here. It hadn't even started and I was already tired of it.This fabulous definition of a small wedding was nothing like I have ever seen. First off, their small wedding guests were almost three hundred in number. Sarah had made sure that we all went to the order of events multiple times. Her immediate family members were expected to have gotten to the reception by seven in the morning and here I was still in bed, snuggled against Daniel by freaking six thirty in the morning.She's going to be so mad at us."She shouldn't be here for long," I replied, "Carol's going to be here any second, I'm sure the only reason we are yet to hear a reaction from her is because she's been caught on the web of a particular activity and couldn't show up to break our doors down."We should actually get to our feet." Daniel kissed my head gently.I stood up reluctantly knowing he was right. The living room had been transformed since the day we came into a whole event center. All the chairs,
The moment my sister brought Daniel home so the family could meet him was the day I knew I had to make him mine. He looked like he was written by a Latin God, six feet four, perfect for my height of five feet nine. He had jet black hair and he knew what he was doing when he wore that tight T shirt that hugged his muscles, sitting across from me on the dining table."So tell us Daniel, what do you do for work?" My mom asked him, serving her homemade juice to us."I just got in as a marketer in Jenner Inc." He said and that made me widen my eyes in surprise. Jenner inc. belonged to my father and I worked in the same department of marketing as him."No way," my mom looked between him and Sarah, my sister."Yes mom, before then he worked as a marketer for Vail in Chicago, and he moved here so we could be closer to each other. You know Vail is one of dad's rivals so he was happy to accept Daniel, one of their best into the company." She sounded so proud as they giggled at each other."That
"No, no, no!" I gasped when he helped me regain balance on my feet, "that was my favourite shirt." I gasped at the coffee stain that trailed from my boobs to the center of the shirt."I don't know what got me carried away Jennifer, it was my mistake," he reached for a napkin in his pocket and tried to swipe it on my shirt but that was no help."You remember who I am," I said in realisation."Why wouldn't I? You're my future sister in law," he smiled and that made me glare at him, and I hoped he translated it as anger concerning my shirt."So how are we going to fix my shirt? I can't go around work like this." I groaned, I was already late enough, there was no need to carry on in a bad mood.Daniel took me by surprise when he held my hand and pulled me forward, leading me to God knows where. My cheeks burnt a very bright red at the feeling of his hand on mine and I blinked when he took me into the men's bathroom.We stopped in front of a sink and he went to check the stalls to see if t
"How was work today?" Sarah asked immediately I came home."You've never asked me that before, why do you care?" I dropped my handbag and slouched into a seat. At our ages, we still lived with our parents because neither of us could live on our own, Sarah tried it, it didn't work and I was just too attached to home to want to leave for any reason whatsoever. "I'm just being curious," she shrugged, "and how was Daniel? Did you get to see him today?""So that's what you really want to know? He was doing well, miss girl I'm tired." I groaned. I didn't want to talk about my crush with my sister."Ugh, okay. I'll talk to him myself."A part of me wanted to tell her about the whole shirt situation but I wasn't sure if they shared everything in their relationship."Why are you being so moody though? Did I do something to upset you?" She sat beside me and wiggled her eyebrows."No, I'm sorry, I'm just really worked up, I'm looking forward to your party though," I hoped that would lighten her
As we headed back to our respective departments after the conclusion had been made, I went to where Stella was and pulled her back by her collar, "girl there is no way you didn't do that on purpose!" I whisper yelled at her, keeping my pace slow, not wanting anyone's eyes to longer too much on me."Do what on purpose?" She shrugged at me."Pairing me with Daniel, why would you do that?""What's wrong with it? Why's that such a bad thing to do?" She seemed like she was truly lost for words, "I gave my reasons which are genuine plus I thought you'd be much more comfortable, he's your sister's... Oh my gosh," she suddenly gasped in realisation. "You have feelings for him!""Have you lost your mind, no I don't." I snapped at her."Yes you do, Jennifer, you have to be kidding me right now." She chuckled."It's not funny, I'm dealing with a serious issue over here." I crossed my arms across my chest. She smirked, "Well things just got pretty interesting.""Shut up!""Hey ladies, mind if I
