CEO'S WITCH のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

The next morning, Zayn woke up to the sound of Will talking. He raised his head as he realized he'd slept off on the chair and he saw Will standing with the intercom placed at his ear."Sorry, who?... Kayden Kross?..."Zayn ears perked up at the name, it was Kay. He got up and made his way towards Will who looked confused."Uh, I'm sorry, I'll have to confirm that...""... it's okay," Zayn said and Will flinched at his sudden appearance as he took the phone away from him and spoke into it. "It's okay, please send him up,""Alright sir," the receptionist replied and he stretched over Will to set the phone down. Will turned back to him as the distance between could barely be called one. Zayn stared at him as his bed hair looked cuter than ever, the color had come back to his face but his ears stayed red and he wondered if he was still running a fever."What?" Will asked casually and Zayn's hand went to his forehead as he measured Will's temperature. His hands fell next on his neck and a

Will straightened as the question took him aback and he blinked repeatedly as Zayn's words finally sunk in."How do you know about Zee?" "You mumbled the name in your sleep and kept tapping and asking for where she was," he replied and Will puffed his cheeks at his habit. "Guess I was right then," Zayn's eyes fell back on his laptop. "Is it okay to be so bent on a 'fling'? Seems to me like it could be more than that."Will scoffed and let out a chuckle before saying,"Actually, Zee... Is not my fling, but a plushie." Will said and Zayn stopped typing, his head turned towards Will and he opened his mouth to say something but he stopped mid-way and stared back to his screen."You should've said that earlier." Zayn said in a low tone and Will let out a soft laughter. "Why search for a plushie anyway?""I can't help it, it's my source of comfort,""A plushie?""A plushie." Will repeated with a nod. It wasn't just any plushie, it was his companion for nine years, at the times he felt lo

Will raised his head and swallowed as he sat only a breath away from Zayn who kept staring at him, he wondered if Zayn's hand had slipped but what bothered him most was what pressed against his lower body. It was dangerous."Ah sorry, I..." Will said as he pulled back to get up but Zayn's hand curled down his waist and held him down. He blinked as he could feel his mind slowing down. "What are you..."Zayn sat up and Will's eyes widened as the distance between them closed up and he found Zayn's stare swallow him up."Uh... this is-" Will spoke as he withdrew his head slowly but the grip around his waist tightened and Zayn pulled him back in and Will felt his ears heat up as their bodies clashed. "You can't possibly be planning to leave after getting me like this?" Zayn said in a low voice and Will couldn't tell if it was just in his head or the closed distance made his voice sound deeper. "Huh?" was the only word Will could utter and Zayn's head fell on his shoulder as he let out a

"That's why I'm scared. I know he isn't the type to hold a grudge, we were just able to patch things up and there might be a chance he could overlook this... but there is also a chance it could take a bad turn. The fact that there is still a chance for that makes my stomach turn, why do I keep overthinking things?!""It's just proof that you care, so I guess you have your answer to the question you've had for the past nine years,"Will raised his head at his words and his heart clenched up, he'd been avoiding it with the thought that it was just one of the fleeting emotions that come and go without a warning, but the action in the room clearfield things up. His rule of not going for the straight one shattered in a second."Even nine years isn't enough to get over it," he mumbled"I told you it wouldn't be that easy. Tell you what, first take a deep breath, it'll be fine okay? I understand what you're going through right now and I wish I could help but sadly all I can do is cheer you u

The third day of the trip went by smoothly, visiting the branch they had established in the area and overseeing the run of the products and the maintenance of the building. Satisfied with he had seen, they were able to round things up early and fly back to their main branch. The flight back was also casual, being updated with his meetings and conferences, getting a little work done and flying back safely. It was the best situation one could ever ask for,but not currently for Zayn.It felt too casual, because he knew something was up with Will but he just couldn't put his finger on it.When they arrived, Will decided to go the rest of the way on his own but Zayn insisted on going with him because it was late. After a while of Will not being able to shake Zayn off, they made their way to his house. They came to a stop at an apartment and Will got out."Thanks for the ride, you can head home now," Will said casually and turned to leave but he heard the door close up and turned to see Za
