Aubrey
Tonight was dinner with my cousin and husband. I was starting to regret asking Gabe to join me. This was a terrible idea! My cousin was a gossip. What if she mentions it to the rest of the family? How do I get myself out of this one? Maybe he shouldn’t come.
I grabbed my phone and called him. He would be here in about an hour. It only rang a couple of times before he answered.
“Hey, gorgeous,”
“Hey, so I have been thinking. I don’t know if tonight is such a good idea,” I said softly.
“How come?”
“Because my cousin has a big mouth. She will end up telling the rest of the family, and then any family even they will expect me to show up with you,”
“So, what is the problem?” he chuckled.

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
