SAWYER

Sitting in my office, I glanced over at Keia's desk through the glass wall. Even after what she had told me last time, she was still late today again. She was giving me reasons to suspect that she was lying, and that her lateness was habitual. She had rushed in and apologised to everyone she passed. I could tell from the look on her face that she was clearly stressed.

But I didn't care much about her being late, I was irritated for another reason altogether. And that was wanting to see her. I was mad at myself for feeling like that but there was nothing I could do about it. The first time we met, it was nothing but a fleeting moment. And from the look of things, it was clear she didn't know I was the man from that night.

It was just a night anyway, no names and no faces to remember, maybe for her, but not for me. She never mentioned it and I wasn't about to ask her. But the thought kept nagging at me. Did she ever think about it or was she just pretending it never happened?

    KEIAIt was Impossible getting what she had said to me off my head. It stayed with me all night and kept replaying and coming back to me like some broken record."You'll wake up one day and realise that you deserved better... and you will send me away like I never existed." If that's what she thought about me even after everything that we had been through this whole time, then I had no idea where this was getting to. I used to think that maybe things would fall in line, but from what I had heard her say, it was clear that I was very wrong.Nothing was falling in line. Nothing. Keia really thought that I didn't care about her and that I was going to throw her away whenever I was done with her. Did she take me for Artemis? The thought that she could think of me like that was the reason I was angry. Why the hell would she have that opinion of me despite all that I have done to make her know that I loved her. She thought she was just a temporary fix and some sort of convenience.What did

    KEIAI couldn't believe my ears when he said that. I stared at him for a long while, before looking back at my laptop, realising that I had been up all morning, stressing over nothing."Wait, you did what?" I asked as my brows came together in surprise.That was the last thing I expected to hear, especially with how lazy he had been acting since I tried waking him up. I thought last night had been too exerting, and he was just tired. He smirked before leaning casually against the headrest."I canceled everything for today. Called the company, cleared the schedule, and officially declared a holiday for us. Do you want to hear it again?" He asked, still smiling at me like there was something funny written on my face. I was no doubt surprised as I stared at him, then I folded my arms and asked."And why would you do that? Lemme guess- you're too late to go to work because you had a lot of wine last night. You remember telling me that this work never stops. That we have to get up each day

    KEIAThe first thing that struck me the moment my eyes opened was the feeling of warmth beside me. It was comforting and familiar as well, so much that it made me smile even before I rolled over to see who it was. When I finally did, I realised that I was lying next to Sawyer.Another smile ripped out of my lips as I stared at him. His heart was draped over the pillow and his face was so relaxed and peaceful. It was very hard trying to look away from him. His features were just mesmerising. I'd seen him that way this whole time but last night was special, and it had created a different kind of bond between us, one that I prayed would last for a very long time.Last night was all I could have asked for, a moment of respite from all the madness that was going on around us. And he didn't shy away or reject my advances. He'd taken me passionately, and I wasn't going to forget any moment of it. It was simply magical."How did I end up with someone this good-looking?" I asked myself in a wh

    SAWYERThe moment I started driving, my hands instinctively gripped the steering wheel a little tighter than usual as I glanced at her from the corner of my eyes. She wasn't saying anything and it gave me quite the fright. She was sitting stiffly in the passenger seat when her arms crossed and her eyes focused out the window. What I had done was very wrong. I should not have spoken to her like that. What was I thinking?"Keia," I started, hoping that our conversation was going to solve the problem. "My driver had to step out to handle something. That is the reason I am driving tonight."That was complete bullshit. My driver was perfectly available but I didn't want him here because I needed to be alone with her this time. I had a lot of talking to do, and her reaction with everything that I had said this whole time just confirmed it.The silence inside the car was just so unbearable. And I couldn't admit it even to myself but I didn't like how distant she seemed. I had done a terrible

    KEIAThe moment he was gone, I slammed my hands down on the desk, and slammed my door shut. What the hell was he thinking and why the hell did he keep doing this to me? One moment he was acting like someone who truly cares and the next moment he was acting like he hated every bit of me and that I disgusted him. I couldn't just figure out why he was being so rude to me.The bossy and cold behaviour he had just let out made me want to punch him in the face or hit my head against a wall because I had done nothing to deserve any of it. I thought we were on good terms. No, I knew we were. Last night, we had worked together like the perfect team and I saw that if we continued that way it wouldn't be long before we cracked down on the one that we have always wanted, but then he had suddenly changed all of a sudden and was acting so strange. He had even kissed me last night.As it felt so real and full of emotions I was still trying so hard to come to terms with. But with everything that was

    SAWYERThe next few days were very good because it felt like life was finally starting to make some sense after this whole whole thing. Everything was finally falling into place and there was no better feeling than that. She was here in my house doing this with me and as much as I didn't want to admit it to her, it was one of the things that I had dreaded about for years. At some point I blame myself for the times when I didn't make the move when I was supposed to. I should have approached her during our school days, maybe none of this would be happening in the first place.She wasn't just my long-time crush- she was also one of the very few people that made me feel alive when the world seemed to have gone mad. I always thought that I was never going to be able to gather the courage to approach her and tell her about the way I felt about her, but with everything that was going on now, I felt so happy and fulfilled.We were now sharing our deepest secrets and doing almost everything to
