Chapter 15
Fuck. The bottle hit his head and it shatters down the ground, Zach stood immediately, surprised and I held my mouth with my hands after a gasp. Why didn’t he stop it? Adam rubbed the back of his head and stood up, and hell, I can feel his dark ambiance devouring me.
Shit, why didn't he just used his reflex or power or whatever?
He turned to me with a sullen gaze, I bit my lower lip and I am ready to run. My eyes slid to Zach and his eyes are still wide and he looked at me like I was crazy. There's no other choice... I have to do this... I stared at Adam and grabbed another bottle, steadfastly, the one that I prepared in case my plan didn't work. I threw it at him and he catches it with his hand with his burning look and the bottle turns to ashes.
I grinned in victory and he got an amused gaze and I turned to Zach. See! See! He looked like his jaws just dropped down and I wanna laugh.&

When we reached the building, he parked in front of the entrance and he didn’t turn off the engine since he was also heading to the HQ.“See you later?” I bit my lip as soon I asked.He flashed me his lovely boyish smile and nodded, “I’m gonna be at your house later.” I giggled, wanting to squeal my throat out. Gosh, I always feel excited when it’s him. I nodded at him and opened my side of the door but he grabbed my wrist before I could step out.“Eve?” he called out, his eyes looking kind of shy. He is so adorable, I lifted my brows up to ask him. “Maybe you can come with me this Saturday…” Is he asking me out?“Where are we going?” I asked, still staring at his cute and shy phase. I wanted to laugh right now, and pinch his cheeks even but I waited for his answer first.“Well, I’m going to

As soon as we got out of the room, Zach was already done with the dishes and Adam was still by the sofa so I went behind him. “Hey.”Adam turned his head and the first thing that caught my attention was his blue mesmerizing eyes. “Hey…” He flashed me a wobbly smile and my eyes dropped down his lips. I want to kiss him. I pursed my lips in, stopping my thoughts but he mumbled something.“What?” I asked and he bobbed his head outside.“Zach is outside. I’m gonna start coffee.” He stood up and gave me a kiss on the forehead. I giggled as he did when the thought of Adam being such a nice and caring attitude fluttered my heart. There’s this side of Adam that’s just so mature and brotherly, I watched him as he went to the sink with a smile in my face.Oh, Zach. Watching Adam pulled me into my daydreaming state again.

After 4 days…I stared at the empty papers at my table, feeling a little empty, feeling like I have been drained. The stories I reviewed we’re already being prepared for publish and now I just want to stare at the vast space and fall to my soft, fuzzy bed. After the night at the house, it just became a week of piled work and I think I’m gonna get sick of speed running the reviews especially when Adam and I have a date tomorrow, well it’s not a date actually.I think it’s more of a visitation type of thing since we are going to Natalie’s house so I could meet Mr. Leon.

I had my eyes wide open as I contemplate the stars that shone in the night sky. Natalie took the duty of grilling and I tried helping her but she insisted. Adam went to a store to grab a couple of beer so I was left alone when Leon came and sat down beside me.“How’s the publishing, young lady,” he beamed at me and I smiled at him, I noticed that Natalie got her cheery smiles from Mr. Leon, maybe I just didn’t see him smile before as our boss. “Uhm, it’s better when you were there Mr. Leon,” I giggled and he laughed, shaking his head.“I don’t believe you.” He gazed up the stars stretching his back before complaining about his age. We talked about the publishing and I asked him why he chose me—turns out, what Natalie said was true. Mr. Leon planned it ever since I began giving my opinions, which I thought was just normal for an employee. As we have out meaningful conversation, I remembered

"My house!" I launched in a dramatic entrance, after missing my bed after a busy day. I hum my way inside but my feet stopped when I heard the shower pouring in the bathroom.Adam? Well, he is the only one who can enter here.I bit my lip and my heart went into summersault as I think of him here after a week of not even seeing that bittersweet man. "Adam?" I utter loud, enough for him to hear and leaned my head to lay my ear on the door of the bathroom.Is he done yet?My heart was hammering in my rib and I felt like my sternum cracked when he spoke on the other side, in the hallway. "You're going to kill me." I leaned on the bathroom door, calming my nervous heart down. As I did, my eyes kept looking at the contour of Adam's neck and his wet hair, making my heart more dysfunctional.Down girl.I closed my eyes and waved my hand at him and made a step to go in my room."Did Zach walk you home?"

Zach kept hurdling me beside him, with his body in between me and the girls."What the hell are you doing?" I whispered as he draped his arm on my shoulder keeping me close."Keeping you safe." He winked at me and I rolled my eyes on him and leaned forward to talk to the girls."How are you guys doing by the way?" I beamed at them."Well, I am doing fine," Cathlyn spoke in her calm voice and Kate just smiled, she looked lonely. I escaped Zach's arm and went beside Kate."Are you okay?""Yea, I'm fine. Just tired, I guess." She didn't even bother to look at me.Is she mad at me or anything?I glanced at Cathlyn and she shook her head and gestured me beside her.

As soon as he spotted me, he walked towards me, eyeing me like I am the most beautiful creature he has ever seen. The thought made me want to explode but I disregarded it since it's just a thought."Hello beautiful."I bit my lip to avoid giggling like a teenage girl but his smile made me grin since it was so adorable. He leaned on my ear to whisper, "Glad I know how to stop myself from ripping your dresses off." My eyes widened and I swatted him out of my own consciousness.
