Chapter Four_ The Intimacy

Aisling's POV:

"I am going to make creamy shrimp fettuccine pasta, I hope you don't mind?" I asked him when he walked inside the kitchen that I was.

He sat on down the bench and smirked.

"Are you going to cook something else if I say no?" He asked me.

Would I?

Of course not, if he doesn't want to eat it I'll cook and and make instant noodles for him.

"I'll still cook it because I'm craving it." I said and shrugged.

He chuckled and stood up from the bench. He removed his blazer and roll up his shirt sleeve.

"Whatvare you doing?" I asked him, my eyes widened as he walked closer to me.

"Trying to help you with the cooking." He told me.

Oh, I am lucky to meet this one.

He is not only handsome and rich but also a good man.

I smiled shyly and stepped aside for him.

"Thank you." I whispered.

He nodded his head and wash his hand on the sink.

"What do you do?" I asked him, he was already sitting down on the bench and I'm cooking the pasta already.

He waited for a while before answering me that i had to glance at him.

"I manage a small company, " he told me.

A small company?

That means his business must be doing well because he look so wealthy to be managing just 'a small company' according to him.

"Business must be good," I said to him.

"Yeah, I guess so." He said and laughed.

After I was done cooking, I dishes out the food inside a big plate and brought it out to the dining table.

I went back inside the kitchen and opened my cabinet then brought out two plates before closing it.

I opened the fridge and brought out a bottle of champagne and two glasses that Leona got for me on my birthday a month ago.

'You are trying so hard to impress this man, Aisling darling, don't be shameless' 

My subconscious mind told me.

I don't care.

I am a woman that knows what I want, even though I might be shy in the beginning to go after what I want but I will eventually go after any man I want.

He is not any different.

I'm in love with him, I want him, he obviously knows how I feel about him and that's why he is here. 

We are both single, it is not a crime to try.

I walked out of the kitchen to the dining room and saw him standing there, his hands dip inside his pants pocket.

"Why are you just standing?" I asked him as I drop the plate and wine on the table.

'How can you invite a man you know nothing about to your house, Aisling? That is risky'

I know.

I'm very much aware of that but I hope that tonight I can get to know everything I want to know about him.

I can get to know his name too.

****

After eating our food silently, I carried the plates to the kitchen and started washing them.

I'm yet to know his name.

But even without the name, the chemistry was there, the tension was undeniable.

I feel him walk inside the kitchen and towards me, he stand beside my back and remove the hair tie on my hair.

There were goosebumps all over my body.

I couldn't move as he let my hair down.

After tying my hair, he whispered into my ear.

"You look sexy, more sexy with your hair down, Miss Garcia." He whispered.

I closed my eyes and hold my breath.

What the hell is wrong with me?

"Thank you," i mumbled under my breath.

He tried to step back from me but I quickly turned to look at him.

I looked up into his brown eyes and suck in a sharp breath.

"What is your name?" I asked him.

He raised his hand up to my face and pushed a strand of hair away from my face.

"Michael Milan." He whispered to me.

Michael Milan? That name is everywhere.

My eyes widened as I look up to him. No. It can't be.

There might have been a mixed up somewhere, it can't be the same Michael Milan.

The ruthless and cold-hearted billionaire? The Forbes second richest man in the world? 

That Micheal Milan? 

Maybe they only share the same name.

"You have the same name as that of the popular tech billionaire, Micheal Milan." I told him.

He smiled and brought my face close to his, his eyes searching mine.

"Do you believe in coincidence? Because I don't believe in coincidence darling." He told me.

He..... He is Michael Milan?

Michael freaking Milan?

Leona's boss?

I can't believe this.

How is that even possible?

How on Earth did I run into a billionaire or even got attracted to one?

"How is that possible?" I asked no one in particular.

"I don't know, sweetheart." He said and caress my cheek.

But he said he run just a small company. Was he deceiving me before?

"I want to kiss you." He told me. He raised my face up to his with his hand and lowered his head down to meet my face. "Can I kiss you?"

How can such a gentleman be the same ruthless and cold-hearted billionaire that I used to hear about?

How is that possible?

I nodded my head and he slowly kissed my lips. His mouth taste like mint.

The kiss started slowly and soon he was moving me away from the sink.

He grabbed my ass and I quickly wrap my legs around his torso.

He is so strong even as a 39 years old man.

He suck on my lower lip and then my tongue, his hand squeezing my ass.

I couldn't believe what was happening.

I am kissing Micheal Milan. The world billionaire.

He broke the kiss and stared into my face.

"You're like a drug, I can't seem to stay away from you." He whispered before slamming his mouth on mine.

* * *

It has been about three days since I had my rendezvous with Michael Milan.

It was one hell of a night.

I cant believe i had sex with a man that isn't my boyfriend.

But it was hot.

"What are you thinking about?" Leona asked me, it was on Friday night and she decided to stay the night in my house.

"It's nothing, I just remembered something." I responded to her.

She poured in her drink inside a glass cup and sipped on it.

"You look different and happy too, did you have a lot of customers in the store today?" She asked me.

I chuckled and shook my head.

"No that's not it and I'm not just only happy when my business is doing great, I'm always happy when I feel like it and today is one of those days I feel like being happy and living my life the way I want it." I responded to her.

She rolled her eyes and nodded her head.

"So tomorrow evening is the end of the year party in my company. I'm inviting you there so that you can have fun together." She told me.

End of the year party?

What if I run into Michael there?

"Will Micheal Milan be there?" I questioned and Leona raised her eyebrow.

"I don't understand why you are suddenly talking about my boss, you have never ever talked about him before so why so sudden? Did something happen? Is there something I need to know about? you know I hate being kept in the dark so if there is something bothering you and you want to say it then let it out right now, I won't judge you, you know me very well, I don't judge people." She told me.

I'm not going to say a word about my encounter with Michael Milan.

I can't.

That should be our own dirty little secret.

"There is nothing going on, I just wanted to know what is going on about him. forget about that, so is there a dress code for tomorrow night? I need to look my best." I said, quickly changing the topic.

"It is just a friendly party, there is no dress code, just wear something comfortable, a dress." 

After drinking Leanna and I retired to bed I couldn't sleep. The thoughts of Michael couldn't let me sleep, I kept thinking about him, thinking about the possibility of seeing him again.

I stepped out of my bed and walked out of my room, I unlocked my phone and turned on my phone's flashlight.

I walked inside the kitchen and opened my fridge and brought out a bottle of water.

I sipped on the water and closed the fridge then walked back inside my room.

Tomorrow is surely going to be nice to me.

*****

I was already in the shop and Chloe and I already brought out the flowers and people were coming and going.

Business is going great and I still had hope that Michael might stop by.

But I thought wrong, I didn't see him and I was sad, that really spoiled my mood because I was hoping that he would at least stop by if not for anything but to see me.

As soon as it was 5:30 p.m. I told Chloe to close the shop and go home because I had to go and get ready for the end of the year party that Leona invited me to.

When I got home I took my bath and started getting ready for the party.

I picked out my red knee length dress from my wardrobe and wore it.

It was a dress I got myself earlier this year during Valentine's day and I haven't wear it since then. I guess it's time for me to wear it.

I put on my make-up and also wore my stiletto heels.

I stood before the mirror contemplating what to do with my hair.

I am so used to packing my hair up in a ponytail since it's just so long, but ever since Michael told me that I look more sexy with my hair down, I can't seem to pack my hair up again.

I removed the hair tie for my hair and let my hair down brushing it to the side with my hand. I stared at myself through the mirror.

  I sure look beautiful.

That I know.

My phone started ringing and I grabbed it on the bed. I know for sure that it would be Leona.

And I was right!

"Hey girl, are you ready? I'm in front of your apartment." She told me.

"Yes I'll be down there shortly, I just need to grab my purse." I told her before hanging up the phone.

We got to M&M tech not long later, the hall was full to the brim.

It was decorated beautifully.

Leona led me to our table and I sat down on a chair.

I kept glancing to my left and right in search of Michael Milan but couldn't find him. Not until I finally did and my heart shattered into pieces.

Michael walked inside the hall with a beautiful woman in a long green dress.

I couldn't look away.

It was like he was also aware of my presence because his eyes kept searching the huge hall room until they landed on me.

I shouldn't be hurt but I was.

I was hurt beyond words.
