Semua Bab It’s Complicated But It Doesn’t Have To Be : Bab 11 - Bab 20

ONE WEEK LATER.The spring in Melissa’s step had quickly faded as she was back at work. Melissa had started to try to expand the company even more internationally.She’d been scouting for businesses and plots of land in other countries. Just an idea she was tossing around, doing research, land taxes, business taxes, and a whole load of red tape.On top of that Featherlite was going extremely well. Rick McAdam owner of McAdam Photography had been one of five businesses to “win” help from Melissa and the board of directors, after they had put all five contracts beside each other. Melissa had an uneasy feeling about Rick McAdam, she didn’t like him. He quickly had proved to be a chauvinistic and mysoginistic, working on a sixth sense, Melissa had written into his contract that if he was to make any comments about her being a woman finding would be withdrawn, although he didn’t know this, Melissa had had her lawyers draw up a watertight contract.She hated people who were se

After deciding that they should start on a rollercoaster Blake and Melissa went to the front of the queue. Even at this time the park was busy.Flashing their wristbands they waited for the car to pull in. Sitting in the seat on the outside Melissa put the belt across her lap. Blake got in and sat next to her before the bar went down over their shoulders.This particular rollercoaster had two loop the loops and a vertical drop and was called Lava.After the loop the loop was the vertical drop, as the car reached the top Melissa waved her hands in the air screaming “Whoooooo” at the top of her lungs, sneaking a peek at Blake, his knuckles were turning white and he looked like he was about to throw up. The flash of the camera went off as the car plummeted into the fake volcano below. Getting off the ride Blake was still as white as a sheet. They looked at the photo of the ride, Melissa is smiling with her arms in the air, Blake looks terrified.“I’m going to buy that photo

THE NEXT MORNINGMelissa got out of bed as the shrill alarm beeped, hitting the button. She got up.The oversized mans shirt she was wearing fell just below her bottom. Walking down the stairs she went and opened the french doors and let the dogs out. Shutting but not locking the door, because the dogs could open the door to let themselves in, Melissa put some food into their bowls, filled the other bowls with water, put them on the floor, Melissa grabbed her mobile calling up “Becky’s bakery.” The voice answered.“Hi yeah, can I get a selection of pastries, delivered please?”“Yes the breakfast box is good. Would you like to know what that contains?” The disembodied asked politely“No that’s okay thank you. Could you charge it to the Hartford account please, would you be able to get it here before 9am? It’s to the residential address you have on the account.” Melissa loved Becky’s bakery, their food is always made fresh and delicious. And Melissa also knew that Ryan

Climbing onto the bed next to her, Blake lay and opened his arms, getting up Melissa grabbed the remote and the wine, when all of a sudden the door to the bedroom opened. In walked Sully, and Storm, Ebony was nowhere to be seen. Sully climbed up onto the big bed, lying horizontally across the bottom, letting out a small “oof” he fell asleep, Storm however wanted to sleep with his humans, jumping onto the bed next to a cuddling Melissa and Blake, he put his paws and head on her thigh, Melissa and Blake decided what movie to watch “Die Hard” came the response from Melissa, Blake looked at her shocked.Shrugging she said “What? I like all sorts of movies.” And put Die Hard on. As they were watching Bruce Willis in probably his greatest role ever according to Blake, Storm slowly crept further over Melissa so his front half was lying on Blake and his back half on Melissa, Storm then proceeded to turn over, lying on his back, all four feet in the air, tongue hanging out the side of his

Waking later Melissa looked over at the clock and saw it was 1:30 am, Blake was snoring slightly, his arm draped possessively across her waist, turning slightly, Blake’s arm tightened to stop her leaving.As his bicep relaxed she wriggled out from under his arm, she nipped to the en-suite, splashing water on her face, she looked in the mirror, expecting to see someone different staring back at her. She didn’t. She still looked the same albeit with with messed up hair.As she reentered the bedroom, Blake was sitting up against the headboard and spoke “I woke up and you were gone.” He pouted slightly Melissa saw this thinking how adorable he looked in the moonlight. And moved towards him, “Oh Blake, I needed the bathroom.”Blake looked at he mischievously “Well I’m sad now. I need you to make it up to me.” He said with a twinkle in his eye.Melissa kissed him, he was taken by surprise but only for a second as he kissed her back. He hadn’t expected her to be so forthcoming.
