CHAPTER 11
JADEN
My fingers twitched from side to side as I watched Isabella examine every inch of my house.As much as I loved watching her expression of awe.I felt nervous.The initial high of having someone over had worn off.it'd been a long time since I let someone over apart from Robert but even longer since I had a woman over.I didn't know why I was so nervous,she seems perfectly at ease shouldn't she be the one feeling anxious?especially after the incident of my brother's room?I'd left the door unlocked so it was really my fault,but my rash actions didn't seem to have bothered her at all.
The woman in question pressed her face against the glass wall that overlook the lake and I wanted to tell her not to smudge it but Instead I managed to keep my mouth shut.she moved into the kitchen,trailing a hand across the marble countertops and stopping by the spice rack to inspect the content,I stayed rooted at the spot whether or

I stumbled my way into my bedroom and almost gasped,my bedroom was messed up,my bed was torn,my pillows were pieces,my closet was empty."who steal shitty clothes?" I yelled into the scattered and destroyed room kicking at the strewn pillow.I couldn't believe it,I should have known. those squatters where up to something mischievous,I should have done something about them earlier.This was what I got for my kindness?Jaden appeared in my bedroom doorway,frowning deeply,"the police are on their way you should take some pictures.""I get it",I muttered."Excuse me?""I totally get homeless people wanting things" I ground out "but did they have to steal from someone who barely have anything? I mean come on!,just ask for some hand me down,don't wreck my place" I ran my hands through my hair,letting out a frustrated sigh."You should make a list of what's missing," Jaden suggested folding his arms on his chest. I rubbed my forehead, "there's no point.I didn't have any

JADENThe sky started raining cats and dogs,The rain pattered against the window wall in my living room and I tried to focus on it instead of the young woman that is currently soaking in the Jacuzzi tub in the room above.I sat on the couch with one leg crossed over the other,drumming my fingers on my knee.After so many years of solitude in my house,it felt strange to have another presence around.Robert usually only stayed for a couple of hours when he came over,but Isabella was staying the whole night.I looked down at couch where she'd probably by sleeping.Isabella was small,but I didn't think she'd be able to lie down comfortably on it.I'd mostly bought it for the sake of design my sittingroom and the fact that it was a good brand.I wasn't meant for sleeping on but what was I supposed to do? offer to sleep in my bed with me? I'd mostly likely get a slap but I definitely wasn't going to be sleeping on the couch.But she's been in a very stressful situatio

ISABELLAMaking up my mind to sleep on Jaden couch had seemed like a good idea the night before,seeing as how I was a guest and all,but by six in the morning,I'd decided it was probably the worst idea.I felt like I hadn't slept at all.The cushions weren't comfortable and my body was to long. so I have to curl up to keep my feet from dangling off the edge of the arm supports.I briefly considered getting up so I didn't have to try getting comfortable again.Immediately as I was shifting,a light from the hallway above turned me on.I turned my head up to the balcony and saw Jaden stumbling towards the stairs,his head bowed.He was dressed in a navy blue suit and his hair was wet,as if he'd just gotten out of shower.As he came to the couch as if he had notice me and I frose with my half-eye closed,hoping he wouldn't notice I was awake.After some seconds he started moving again but this time slowly and quietly,as if he was not trying to wake me up.It was ruined however w
