“Yeah,” I nod.
“How do you know that?” Chloe gives me a look that says she doesn’t believe me.
“Last night, there was this woman that came looking for him, and the way she walked to his office without being given direction suggested that she was used to frequenting the place.”
“Hmm, she could have been anyone.”
“Whatever. I don’t want to have anything to do with him. He’s too much trouble.”
“That was what you said the last time,” Bianca says with a cough.
I shake my head at her as I begin making coffee. “And I was standing by my words until I got trapped in that stupid elevator,” I grumble under my breath.
“I think you should just take it easy. I’m sure things will work themselves out.” Chloe comes and wraps her arms around my shoulders, hugging me from behind. Bianca joins, and we are all hugging.
I fry some eggs for us, and after having breakfast, they both head back to their apartment. While I head to bed and fall asleep almost immediately, my body is tired out from being awake all night.
I wake up from my slumber moaning. When I open my eyes and realize that I was only dreaming, I’m both grateful and frustrated.
In my dream, Ethan decided to finish what he started in the elevator, and this time he just didn’t use his fingers, but his cock.
“Oh God,’’ I let out a groan, turning to face the window.It’s getting dark outside. How long have I been sleeping?
Rolling out of bed, I walk into the bathroom to wash my face, after which I decide to change into joggers and a crop top.
Tying my hair into a messy bun, I head out to get some groceries from the supermarket downtown.
At the grocery store, I am in the spices aisle when I perceive a familiar cologne. While I’m still trying to remember whom I had smelled that on before. I hear his voice, and it immediately sends shivers down my spine.
I can recognize that voice from anywhere. What is he doing here? He doesn’t come off as the type that cooks. Or maybe he’s here with his girlfriend.
Hiding behind the aisle, I walk closer to where I can see him and hear what he’s saying. He’s alone and holding his phone camera to spice in his hand, earphones in his ears.
“What do you mean, this isn’t the brand? This is the sixth grocery store I’ve been to, and I haven’t seen the one that you’re requesting. Are you sure you got the right name?”
He sounds pissed. There is a pause before he goes on to say, “Well, you have to make do with this, Amy.”
Oh, so that’s her name? Amy. He has a girlfriend and is playing the devoted boyfriend by going shopping for her. Does she know he’s cheating on her?
Anger starts boiling within as I now feel really used. He's in a relationship and still decided to do those things with me in the elevator.
I’ve never felt like screaming at someone like I do right now. I want to walk over and tell him a piece of my mind, but I know it won’t end well. I can get fired.
I don’t realize I’m staring until he looks in my direction. I quickly jerk my head back and hide behind the shelf.
Did he see me?
Not waiting to find out, I bend down and sneak off to the next aisle. And that’s when I find myself faced with a pair of black Nike sneakers.
“Hello, Jessica, what are you doing crawling on the floor of the grocery store? Are you hiding from me?”
I look up to see Ethan—a hint of amusement dances in his eyes as he stares at me.
“I’m not hiding from you.”
You’re such a terrible liar.
He quirks a brow. “Oh, really? What are you doing then? I must say I like you in this position,” he smirks.
