I woke up with a headache. I don't remember much of what happened last night. I didn't open my eyes, but I felt that something was on my waist.
I slowly opened my eyes, I saw the arm on my tummy. And that's when I realized that I was naked and only my red sheet was on my body.
Sh*t!
I looked at the man who had his arm resting on my stomach.
My eyes widened when I saw Easton.
He was lying face down while his face was facing me.
My heart beat fast when I stared at his face. His hair is messy. He looks like an angel if you look at him while he is asleep.You really don't think he is an arrogant man. After all, he's very handsome when he's asleep. I like his long curly eyelashes, as well as —
Suddenly, he opened his eyes. I screamed. And slid down from the bed.
He grinned at me.
"Baby, are you done staring at me? Feeling satisfied? " he said naughtily.
I pulled the blanket on the bed hard. To cover my naked body, his grin widened when he caught sight of the side of my breast.
Glared at him, I stood up to open the closed curtain on my window while holding the blanket wrapped around my body.
"Get up there and leave my unit. " I told him.
"So, that's it? After what happened to us last night? "I looked at him and raised an eyebrow.
"What do you want to happen? To feel grateful because we had sex again? " I told him flatly.
I heard his soft laugh, he straightened up. Now he is leaning on the headboard of the bed.
"I really like how sassy you are when you talk to me. " I rolled my eyes at him and picked up his black slack from the floor and threw it at him.
"Get dressed and leave! " I said fiercely before I entered the bathroom.
"You won't even invite me to breakfast at least?! " he shouted.
I just ignored him, I just took a shower.
I let the cold water flow over my body from the shower.
While thinking about what happened to us last night, how I became reckless to him. I should avoid him and one more thing, our family are enemies in business and his sister is my opponent in car racing.
I finished my shower, I came out of the bathroom and found that Easton was no longer there. I breathed a sigh of relief. I got dressed in household clothes, since I didn't have a schedule or appointment this morning because Danny wasn't there.
I didn't have anything to do besides work out at home, I decided to do a gaming livestream later.
I came out of my room, I inhaled the aroma of cooking food. I followed the smell with a frown. It was impossible for my neighbor, so I followed it into the kitchen.
I saw the broad back of a man. He was topless and busy cooking food.
He came forward to place what he had cooked on the counter. He stopped whistling when he saw me.
"I thought you had left? Why are you still here? " I glanced at what he had cooked.
"And you even cooked . I scoffed
He pouted his lips.
"I'm already hungry and it's too lazy to go to restaurants. And thank God you have stocks of food here. " he smiled at me.
"I told you to leave my condo unit, then here you are now cooking breakfast. Just wow, just wow! " I said sarcastically.
"Don't you feel sorry for me? How can I drive if I'm hungry? It's possible that I'll have an accident on the road because I'm dizzy from hunger. Don't you have pity?" He said dramatically.
"What so ever. after you eat, leave my condo. " I told him and walked out of the kitchen.
"Won't you eat? Join me! " he shouted,
"I don't feel like eating if you're the only one with me. "
I didn't look at him and went to the living room. I just turned on the TV.
After 25 minutes, he finished eating. He walked into the living room. I just focused on the TV and didn't try to turn to him. I could feel his warm presence, I could feel him bending over while his hands rested on the back of the couch.
"Baby, I'm going home." he said huskily.
"O-Okay, just be careful driving. You are not hungry enough to have an accident on the road. Right."
He chuckled.
"Baby, why are you so grumpy? " he whispered.
I didn't realize that he leaned towards me even more. I feel the warmth of his breath caressing the back of my ear.
It gives me a chill down to my spine and goosebumps.
I could hear my heart start to beat so fast. I swallowed and caught my own breath.
Gad! What is happening to me?
"C-Can you leave now?" I looked at him, his staring eyes met mine. His face is so close to me, if I make a wrong move I can kiss him.
He smirked,
"Okay, if that's what my baby wants. " He stroked my hair while I just stared at him.
Until I felt his lips quickly touching mine.
I couldn't move from the shock and I was stunned.
It was as if every second stopped when he did that, he could no longer notice what was being said. Only the strong beating of my heart can be heard.
I blinked when I heard the door close. He had already left. I slowly slid down and leaned against the back of the couch.
I touched my lips, unable to believe what happened and what I felt.
Easton has kissed me several times, but the way he kissed me a while ago was strange. I felt something different from his kiss.
It's just a simple smack kiss! Why does this affect me?
I shook my head and tried to forget this strange feeling.
I've been sulking in my room all day. And that I did live streaming because I was disturbed by the smack kiss incident.
I can't get out of my mind until I go to sleep. Every time I close my eyes, that's what I see.
"Red? Red? Are you there? " biglang tawag sa akin ni Danny Danny suddenly called me. Blink and cleared my throat.
"Y-Yes?" I heard my brother's laughter.
"She's spacing out, Danny. I think she was thinking deeply. "I slowly leaned back on the swivel chair.
"Are you okay, Red? " Danny asked with concern.
"Y-Yeah I am? Why is there a problem? "
Randy sighed deeply.
"You seem tired and exhausted, Red. Tell Danny and me if you have a problem. We have been noticing for a few days that you are sometimes confused. "My brother said worriedly.
I smiled at them,
"Don't worry too much about me, I'm fine. " I assured them, so they don't have to worry about me.
It's been a few days since something happened to Easton and me again. I have been busy with my training and practice for my match. And I haven't attended many parties that our family is invited to. Somehow, I'm also thankful that I won't be able to see Easton first.
"I know how much pressure you are now that your match is approaching. I hope you tell Danny and me if you have any problems. So that we don't have to worry about you."
I reached for my brother's hand on the table and squeezed it. To let him know that I'm really okay.
Even if it's not really.
I have also received death threats for three days. Einah is impossible, as I suspect. We fought each other for a long time in the race. She couldn't do that to me.
Danny sighed deeply and crossed his arms.
"So, that's all we'll discuss about today. The next day we will finish the discussion. And you Red, rest now, I'll clear all your schedule this afternoon." I nodded.
"This meeting is adjourned," he announced.
I was left in the conference room for a moment to call the private detective I had hired. Suddenly, someone knocked on the door and a female employee of our company entered.
"Miss Red, a parcel has arrived for you, said the receptionist downstairs." The female employee said while carrying a box.
I put my phone down on the table and stood up to take the box from her.
"I didn't expect a parcel to arrive, but thank you for delivering it to me." I smiled at her and she said goodbye and left to go back to work.
I put the box on the table and opened it with a frown. Wondering if a parcel had suddenly arrived for me. I don't like to shop online. Why didn't it suddenly arrive?
I lifted the lid of the box and couldn't help but scream because of its contents.
Shaking and feeling nauseous as I reached for my phone,I dialed my brother's number. It took five rings before he answered my call.
"Hello, Red? What's wrong? "
"R-Randy, c-can you come b-back here to the c-conference room p-please." I stuttered to him.
"Okay okay. I'll be there. " He hung up and I sat on the swivel chair to calm myself down.
In less than a minute, Brother arrived with Danny.
"What happened, Red? Is there a problem? " he asked as Danny pushed his wheelchair inside.
They immediately noticed the box on the table.
"What is this? " Danny asked in surprise.
He got closer to the box to see what was inside.
"What the hell is this?! " he shouted horribly.
