Andy's POV:
We were standing in the middle of a long hallway, we were facing the restrooms, he loosened his tie taking another deep breath, he was mad, so mad! I've never seen him this way before, he used to get mad at work, but I swear I've never seen him lose it this much.
"it wasn't supposed to be you Andy" he said in the most cold look, my eyes widened, what does he mean? suddenly the realization hit me!! remembering what he had whispered in my ear earlier, about being ready...he thought I was someone else!!
"I thought you're someone else, that's why...I danced with you, and get so close to you, but it was supposed to be some other girl, we planned for all of this, that she'll be my 'fiancée' in front of Chloe, but you screwed it all up!!!" he said hitting the wall behind me making me gasp from fear and surprise, he was facing me with his mad blue eyes, making me look at them.
"This is insane, why did you continue your game after you figured it was me anyway?" I asked, he shot me one of his deadly glares.
"Are you fucking kidding me Andy? I just explained to you everything, why do you have to be so fucking stupid?" he yelled making me flinch. Tears were beginning to form in the corner of my eyes!! I only nodded, started to walk away from him, he followed but said nothing .
When we're back to the party, all I did was get drink after drink. I was upset, and sad from his cruel words, he didn't have to be so cruel. I started to get daisy from all the drinks, which is why I decided to call for a cab.
When my cab arrived I walked outside the hotel feeling my knees weak and trembling, I wasn't myself at all, I checked my phone it was already 11:00.PM, I sigh, remembering the fact that I'm having work tomorrow, and the possibility of waking up with a bad hangover, I shouldn't have drink this much!!
I opened the door, I was about to get inside the cab, but a strong hand grabs my wrist, I look up to see his blue eyes gazing into mine, his eyes were the first reason that I'm attracted to him, I realized I was looking at his face for what looks like ages, so I looked away shaking my head, is this some kind of a dream? I couldn't believe my eyes, I closed them, opening them again to see he was really here, I could feel my heart beats racing. Why is he here?
"What kind of man leaves his fiancée heads home in a cab?" he asked, closing the door shut, the cab immediately left cursing for wasting his time, while we started walking, he was still holding my wrist tightly , while me? I was following him from behind, when he found his car, he opened the door for me, getting inside as well, we were seated on the back seats, while there was a driver on the front seat.
The car started, the driver asked for my address which I gave him immediately, I was tired, sleepy, and a bit drunk! Heading home would be a nice idea.
Harris remained silent, so did I. I was staring outside my window, feeling as if I was going insane, maybe because he was sitting with me silently, but his eyes were focused on me, I finally looked up at him questioningly.
"you didn't have to do that...why did you?" he finally asked I shrugged, "you didn't have to, but you did it anyway, why?" he asked again still confused, "cause, I know the feeling, I've been there" I said, it's true, it hurts to love someone you know he's already moved on.
He looked away, "it's not the same" he said looking outside his window, I looked away too, of course it's not the same, that girl was pure evil! She's such a bitch!!!
We were finally parking outside my house, I immediately got outside the car, without a word, he didn't say anything too, he didn't even bother to look at me, I closed the door behind me, the car left leaving me standing for a moment in the spot, I sigh, this was a hell of a crazy night!!
********************
"I wanted hot details, not a boring drunk that I'll have to take care of her bad hangover the next morning!!!" Tress said I giggled at that, I put another pillow on my head, but she pushed it away anyway.
"Get up Andy, please just pretty please I need details, how was the party? Did he notice you? How was it?" She started asking nonstop.
"Nothing happened Tress, we just...danced a little " I said remembering the way we danced, being so close to Harris was something new, something I've never experienced before!
"You danced?!!!" she asked standing, she was so excited about it, I giggled again she held a pillow inside her arms and starts to dance along with it, this girl is really into love novels, she doesn't know that love has two faces, the first face would make you feel as if you're up in the sky, while the other one would crash you down to the ground.
"So? what happened next?" she asked, sitting again, I shrugged, "nothing, just that, he drove me home, that's all" I said while her eyes widened, "Oh my god!! Nothing? You calling this nothing? Oh my god Andy you're so stupid!! This guy cares about you, he's totally into you" she said as if she knows everything in this world. I was about to tell her everything, but I decided I shouldn't talk about it, since it's something concerning Harris's private life.
"I'm telling you girl, I know, it's what happens in movies" she said kissing the pillow she holding, I rolled my eyes, "this is not a movie, this is real world, get up and let me have some sleep, I have work tomorrow, and don't forget to take the pillow with you, I don't need it anymore" I said in a disgust look, she giggles sticking out her tongue at me, after she left I turn off the lights, I closed my eyes, but to my bad luck, I couldn't sleep, feeling my heart racing, remembering tonight, and Harris's closeness to me.
************************
I got to work ten minutes late, I got inside the elevator pushing the button as fast as I could, holding my coffee, I'm in so much trouble, Harris was mad at me last night, and now this? Coming late to work, he hates it when his employers are late, he's strict when it comes to rules and work, I guess this is what made him successful, the elevator's doors opens, I immediately rushed to my desk, where I could see my office colleagues, Stephan, and Jill, "hey" I greeted them, they were giving me shocked looks, "you just came? You're late?" Steph said acting as if he was shocked, I rolled me eyes, "give her a break, it must be so annoying for her to come late for the first time, it must've took a lot of effort from her to come late" Jill sneers, giggling along with him, I rolled my eyes, sitting on my chair.
"Anyway, Mr. Ford called you into his office ten minutes ago" Steph said, "I gaped from shock, NO!!
"Yeah, he knows you're late," Jill added to my shock. I stood immediately, storming out of my office, I wonder why he called for me to go to his office? What would make him want me in his office?
I was facing his office door. I hesitated to knock or go inside his office. I felt a strange and an awkward feeling, knowing well that something changed between us last night. I don't know what it was, but it definitely didn't feel like the relationship we had before.
I decided I should knock, and shake off this feeling, I knocked, "Come in" he said I gulped opening the door...
Andy’s POV: My eyes widened when the guy turned around, my doubts turned out to be true. Even though he was wearing a black mask, those blue ocean eyes made me recognize him right away. “Harris?” My voice barely audible, a smile crept onto his half masked face. His eyes were locked with mine for a moment, and I knew I was in trouble, just like every time. “surprised?” he said, scanning my look for a moment, then smirked. His eyes met mine again. I was about to turn, but he grabbed me by my waist, turning me around, so I was facing his smiley face. “What do you think you’re doing?” I asked, “can we at least dance?” he said, his hands traveled from my waist to my back. He pulled me close to him. And I could feel my breath fading away. A song started to play, I assume it was the same song that played in Paris, at Caleb’s party, he smirked. “What do you want, Harris?” I asked, looking away from him as he started to dance, making me sway along with him. All the dancers baby on t
Harris’s pov:I was very surprised that Tress finally decided to talk to me. I was trying to talk to her for the past few months.“What do you want?” she asked, her voice annoyed and pissed. “Tress…please, can you listen to me before judging me?” I asked, “I’ll think about it” her voice was more calm.“I love Andy…and I know how much she loves me…” I started, “but I don’t think she needs me as much as I need her” I added, she remained silent for a moment.“I don’t think there’s another good friend that knows what’s good for his friend like you do” I said, “I just want to know what happened suddenly that made Andy leave?” I asked, she remained silent for a moment, “as if you don’t know” she said, making me shake my head.“I swear…I don’t” I said, “you have to stop all the acting, Andy knows about you and Chloe” she said, seemed honest. My eyes widened, “what?” I asked, feeling my heartbeat accelerating.“She knows that you were back to Chloe, and the worst part was that you told Chloe
Harris’s POV:I stood from my seat, her eyes were locked with mine, and I could feel my heart skipping a beat. Andy was there in front of me, still standing at the doorway, but the way she looked at me, it wasn’t the same anymore.We kept staring at each other for what looked like ages, and it was burning me from the inside. I was too weak, and she was a few inches away from me, but I was unable to walk towards her.Suddenly, she started walking towards my desk, then put some papers on it. I frowned, narrowing my eyes at the papers on my desk. I froze looking at her cold eyes, I was about to say something but she beat me to it.“I signed them…we’re no longer…husband and wife” she said, the shock left me silent, I was about to explain, but I couldn’t speak, instead I kept scanning every inch I loved in her, and it was everything, there was nothing that I didn’t love about the girl she was standing in front of me. I made a few steps closer to her.She flinched, looking away from me, I
Andy’s POV:I was still staring at Hector, who was looking back at me. I was unable to move, standing in front of him as if I was a body without a soul.“What were you expecting?” he asked, “that you can do whatever you want, then just run?” he added, I frowned, then looked away from him.“This was your son’s idea…” I started, but he interrupted me, making closer steps towards me, “but you agreed to it” he said, I opened my mouth to protest, “you lied to all of us, especially to my wife” he said, he was pissed, and annoyed.I gulped, not having any idea of what to answer him, deep down, I knew he was right! But I couldn’t just watch while he was putting all the blame on me.“My wife was lying in a bed inside a hospital for like a month, because of your actions, you and my son” he said, I looked down, not able to look at his disappointed face. I was tearing apart from the inside, I’ve never felt much humiliation in my whole life.I gulped, not looking into his eyes, “I kind of expected
Harris’s POV:I knew that I couldn’t do that anymore, I was struggling and fighting back, just to stay away from alcohol. I hated the fact that I was weak, and needy. And it sucks that I had to have the same bad hangover every morning.Which is why I decided to make a promise, that I’ll stop all of this shit, and was trying to occupy my time with various activities, I even started to go swimming, and boxing.Caleb was shocked, still not believing the fact I was trying to stop all of the mess in my life. But all of that didn’t stop me from thinking about her, Andy was keeping my mind occupied, even at work, I wasn’t able to focus. Most of my meetings were no longer interesting, because she wasn’t around anymore.And most of the employees were confused, and negative all the time, and that made me more aware of the upcoming consequences. If I continue in this way, I’ll lose everything!“The doctor said she’s doing good, but…” My father said, “but she she’s still in coma” I said, dad look
Andy’s POV:“Are you alright?” Landen asked, I froze looking at him, then nervously wiped my tears, “yeah…sorry, it was an urgent phone call” I said with an apologetic look, he nodded, “it’s okay to have phone calls, as long as your work is done. It’s also okay if you want to read some of our books” he finished, I felt relieved that he was friendly.“Anyway, if you need any help with these documents, just ask for Elena’s help” he said before leaving me, I received another call, I decided to switch my phone off, since I have some work to do.After I finished all the work, it was lunch time. I headed outside the library after I took Landen’s permission of course.I switched my phone on, and after a moment or two, it started ringing, I frowned, it was Tress. “hey…” I started, but she interrupted me. “thank god you’re okay!!” she gasped, taking a deep breath, her voice shaking.I frowned, “what’s going on?” I asked, “Andy, Harris knows that you were working with…” she started, “Kim?” I wh
