"No! It won't work!""But you haven't heard the rest of it""I've heard enough and I don't think the idea meets the hotel's expectations"He had shouted and like everyone in the room I grew quiet. Leave it to Niklaus Rogers to get angry over a mere presentation that wasn't actually agreed upon. One hour later, I was seated on the passenger's seat of his Jaguar doing nothing in particular but stare outside the window."Can I turn on the radio?"I asked after minutes of silence. Silence that would cut through glass in a second. Don't get me wrong, I didn't want to talk either. Everything that happened today was alot to take in. The fact that Niklaus was clueless on how to apologize and the fact that Carl fired me because of my popularity with the paparazzi. Did it kill him to atleast buy me flowers and apologize? I get that it wasn't part of the contract but I atleast thought he would apologize with a bunch of roses in his hands.I was a dreamer, one that thought that one day my prince
"Is she done?"I could hear him huff angrily all the way from my room. If we were going hiking, I needed the necessary equipment if something were to happen to me. Fey took the liberty of packing my stuff. Stuff like an extra pair of hiking boots, a flashlight, two bars of granola, a walkie talkie which I had no idea she got from and a few warm clothes since the whole thing would last for five days apparently."We should have gotten you a hat too. Incase of sunburns and a net? I hear Yosemite national park has a couple of mosquitoes",Fey stated."Where did you hear that? As far as I know you've never been outside New York let alone went to Yosemite. You are even pronouncing it wrong. It's Yoh-sem-ih-tee not Yoh-se-might""Tomato, tomato. Same thing actually",Fey dismissed and I chuckled loving how they went about it on who was wrong and who was right."I'll miss you guys", I cried."We'll miss you more, Ellen", Chica said holding my cheeks in a motherly way.Chica wasn't that old. She
"Then end this now. You know I hate the guy and it's clear as day you don't love him. You are with him to spite me, Issa", I half shouted."Just like your are with your assistant to make me jealous huh? I know you too, Klaus. I know your type of women",she paused taking my hand and directing it behind her, so much that her breasts were firmly chummy to my chest. "And what type is that?", I asked barely trying to back away from her. I couldn't deny it, having her close to me did wonders to my body. Like any man in my position, I wanted to grab her by the neck and lock lips with her. Maybe even go a little further like... except in the midst of all this, I saw Eleanor infront of me, smiling at me with those succulent lips that begged to be kissed."Me-I'm your-" And before she finished her statement, I had already closed the gap between us locking our lips together feeling her tangle her hands behind my back while she fondled with my hair using her slim fingers. Except it felt differ
It was not only irritating to be in the same room as him but also infuriating. Everytime I saw his face, an image of him kissing Isadora haunted me. I was pissed at him, and maybe more at me because of being so affected by them kissing. It shouldn't have mattered. It simply shouldn't! I shouldn't have been feeling this way. The feeling of having tears almost clog your gut, the feeling where your body could topple over at any moment, the feeling where gravity wins and your heart lunges into the abyss. It wasn't heartbreak but at the same time I wouldn't say my heart was okay, that I was okay."You can take the bed, I'll take the couch,"he said the moment we stepped into the room.It was better that way, the room itself looked exquisite with a king sized bed downing the room, paintings of the countryside hung around, curtains pure white and light, and the breeze from the balcony, so rich that I could smell the fresh earth. I dropped my bags on the floor, wandering off to the bathroom.
Watching her last night walking around wrapped in nothing but a towel was pure torture. She was so oblivious of how tempting she was at the moment. I stared at my laptop trying to keep up with the sales report but who was I kidding, I couldn't focus. Not with her long legs visible to my eyes, not with the wild thoughts that ran in my head, thoughts of grabbing her and taking off the flimsy towel from her body and making ooh sweet... sweet love to her.I stood up leaving the room and heading to the shower to take one cold bath. It wasn't just a mere bath, it was a good five minutes of stroking my length until I decided that this wasn't healthy. Having absurd thoughts about her wasn't healthy for me. When I got out of the bathroom, she was already getting under the covers and I took some of the blankets from the closet going to the small couch to rest."Dang it!" I groaned inaudibly. Sleeping on that couch was like forcing a llama to sleep on a manger, not to mention, it felt like I cou
Fresh air, the feeling of branches snapping underneath our feet, birds chattering, the warm winter breeze hitting my face. I could stay here forever enjoying the outdoors yet no matter how much I tried to focus on the mission, my thoughts went back to him. To how close we were in the morning, to how beautiful he looked in the morning with his hair all over the place and his chest-ooh that fine fine chest. When people talked about love, I had always said that the only love that existed was the one between families. That in absolutely no way would your heart beat rapidly when you saw your significant other, that in no way would you think about someone 24/7 or get butterflies in your stomach whenever you saw him or even get goosebumps whenever you touched.Yet... I was thinking about him 24/7. God forbid, even now I was still thinking about him. Whenever I thought about him, it was a whirlwind of emotions inside of my heart. I hated him for making me be his pretend girlfriend but I a
Terrified, that was one way to put how I felt at the moment. My hands were covered in blood as Niklaus tried to keep himself together. In one way or another, I knew I had to remove the clasped metal from his foot. If I didn't do that then in a couple of minutes he would bleed to death."I'm going to do this and you have to be strong, Nick",I said nervously and he nodded in pain, his head falling back.In one, two and three my hands were on both side of the trap pulling hard as I could."I'm gonna need you to pull out your leg, Niklaus. As fast as I open this, I need you to pull your leg out, please", I strained feeling tears fall down my cheek.Frankly I didn't know why I was crying, all I knew was with the state of helplessness I was in, with Niklaus bleeding and us being in the eerie darkness ignited emotions of sadness and fear. He was going to die because of me.I pulled the dang rusty metal with all my might and I felt Niklaus slowly lift his leg from it's clutches. As immediate
It was already ten minutes since I had asked the nurse to bring Eleanor in. I was worried without a doubt, back there she seemed terrified of my blood, of seeing me in that situation and like a helpless guy I had let her go through all that.The machines beeping around me like an old grandfather clock ticking, did nothing to calm my nerves. When the door opened and a distraught Eleanor walked in, I sighed feeling relieved that she escaped with only a scratch on her forehead."Hey. H-how's your leg doing?" She asked trying to hide the tears at the brink of her eyes."Bad news is, I can walk again",I joked but her face was still as stern as ever."Niklaus you could have died! There was a lot of blood, you were struggling to breath. I thought-I thought you would die because of me""It wasn't your fault, I went out to search for you remember?""Yeah but still...you shouldn't have done that. You should have waited for Murray and the rest of the guys""What and risk Isadora finding out I di
