Gabe
I became a little nervous as our cab arrived at the restaurant, but I wasn’t going to show that to Aubrey because she was worried enough right now, without me adding to it. I paid the fare, and we got out of the cab to head inside. I slipped my arm around her waist.
“You ready for this?” Aubrey asked.
“Hell yeah,” I grinned.
Her cousin Isabella and her husband Tobin were already here. We glanced around when we entered. Why I found the need to do so, I don’t know because I have no clue what they look like.
“There they are,” she said.
She nodded in the direction of where they were. I looked over and saw a well-dressed couple, her cousin was a pretty blonde woman, and her husband was a good-looking guy. They seemed to match well. Aubrey led us over to the table.
“Aubrey!
AubreyGabe and I arrived at his. I was drunk! Isabella was the same. She was worse than me. We called it a night because she was sick. Up until then, it had been a good night, and we had arranged for us all to meet tomorrow for lunch before they go back home.“Do you have any drink in the house?” I asked.“I think you have had enough, babe,” he chuckled.“Why do you always call me that? I don’t know if you even realise that you are doing it?”“I had to play my part,” he replied.“But you have called me it multiple times before tonight,”I was curious, and because I was drunk, it made me more curious than usual.“Dunno,” he shrugged.“I d
Gabe I had been lying awake for the last half an hour, staring at my ceiling. Aubrey was sound asleep and snoring next to me. I wondered if what I said to her last night about officially dating was the right thing to do. Yes, I was a little drunk, but not wasted enough to blame what I said on my drunken ass. I turned my head to look at her and sighed. She was beautiful, and I liked her more than I should, more than I ever believed I would. But for us dating? Would that even work? I don’t know if working together and dating would be too much.Ahh, I don’t fucking know! I need to work it out, though. Aubrey may not even remember me suggesting it. She was way drunker than I was. She began to stir, so I swiftly diverted my attention away from her. I was expecting her to wake, but instead, she rolled into me and snuggled in. She wrapped her body around mine. I did plan on getting up
Aubrey I don’t know why I got as pissed at Gabe as I did. I should have known he didn’t mean what he said last night. If he never opened his damn mouth, things would be different right now. I would still be in bed with him. I was up for trying to date, and I thought he was too, but now I wonder if this is still all a game to him? When did I even start liking him like this? I know I liked him a lot because if I didn’t, what happened at his wouldn’t be getting to me as much right now.I need a shower, coffee, and more sleep. The cab arrived at my place. I paid him and rushed inside. I stripped down and went straight for the shower. I switched it on and stepped into it. I rested my back on the wall and closed my eyes in the hope that the shower would wash my worries away. I ran my fingers through my hair over my face.We had such a good time last n
Gabe I was in a great mood as I made my way to the office. I usually hate Monday’s, but today I was feeling good after the weekend. I sure didn’t expect the weekend to go how it did. I am happy that I grew a pair and went after Aubrey.I came in early on purpose to see Aubrey because she left early this morning. I came with coffee. I knew she was here because she texted me to say. I smiled at everyone as I made my way through the building. They all seemed taken back with it but smiled back.I chuckled to myself and went in the direction of Aubrey’s office. I glanced in and made sure she was alone. I knocked lightly and waited for her to tell me to come. I grinned, opened the door and stepped into her office.“Good morning, beautiful,” I chirped.“Hey, handsome,” she beamed. 
Aubrey I was trying to get ready for my and Gabe’s date, but it wasn’t going well. Why? Because he decided to show up an hour and a half earlier than planned, he won’t leave me alone in the best way possible! “Gabe, how do you expect to get ready with you harassing me?” I giggled. He had been overly needy. I don’t know if that is the right word I am looking for, but he has been sweet and affectionate since the weekend. It was strange seeing him that way, but I liked it. “Sorry, I will behave now, well, if you give me another kiss,” he smirked. “You said that half an hour ago. Then kiss led to us falling into my bed naked, and I had to take another shower, so I am not sure if another kiss is a good idea,” “I promise it will only be a kiss, and then I will go and sit the living room out of your wa
Gabe Aubrey and I had arrived back at mine after our dinner. It had been a good night, even if it did take her a little time to get comfortable. First course and a glass of wine, she relaxed completely.“That food was amazing,” she gushed as she slipped her shoes off.“Yes, the chefs in there are incredible,”“Thank you for taking me. Just don’t make a habit of it,” she giggled.“I can’t make any promises,” I winked.Aubrey laughed and shook her head. So, I tell her to make herself comfortable on the sofa until I get us a drink—scotch for me and a cosmopolitan for my lady.“Thank you, kind Sir,” she grinned as I gave it to her.I took the spot next to her and switched some music on for bac
Aubrey I was sitting in my office doing some work. Today had been a quieter day. I was working on an up-and-coming project. It was next in line after MV, but I wanted to get a start since Gabe wasn’t in today, and we were ahead with that MV project anyway.I got distracted by a knock at my office door.“Come in,” I called out.The door opened, and someone stepped in that I didn’t know.“Are you Aubrey?” he asked, and I nodded.He came all the way in, and I realised he was a delivery guy.“I have a delivery here for you,” he smiled.He came over to my desk and had a beautiful bouquet of flowers in his hands. There was a mixture and so many beautiful colours.“Who sent these?” I asked cur
I was getting myself ready for the gala tonight. I hated that I couldn't take Aubrey as my date. I knew she was going to look stunning in her dress and the fact that I couldn't pull her close to me and tell her how beautiful she looked. I knew other men would be looking at her, and I couldn't do anything about it, show them that she is mine. That will be the most challenging part of all, alongside the millions of questions that I will be asked because I don't have a date. I never show up alone to these things.I sighed as I looked at myself in the mirror. I don't want to go to this thing tonight. I groaned, sat down on the bed and lifted my phone. I found Aubrey's name on it and hit the call button. It rang one, two, three times, and she picked up."Hey, handsome," she chirped on the other end."Hey, sweetness, I think we should ditch tonight and find something more interesting to do,""We can't, we will both be expected, and we spent all that money on ou
