Jasmine.I had a hard time falling asleep after I disappeared from Alexander's apartment. I wondered how he would feel when he finally woke up and I wasn't there.Would he call? Did he even have my number? I wasn't sure about that but I knew he could get it if he wanted."Why are you here at this odd hour?" Ruby had asked the moment she caught me sneaking into the house, "Like a one-night stand with no self respect," She added.Dressed in the sexiest blue nightgown and drinking milk in my kitchen while almost giving me a heart attack, I was glad I hadn't woken her up."What are you doing here?" I screeched out the question, carefully evading her question and words, "You almost made me pee my pants."Ruby did a little hmmm sound, her eyes moved up and down my body. Carefully assessing what was mine and what wasn't. I was dressed in a plain white t-shirt and shorts I stole from Alexander's closet."This is mine," I said while using my hands to awkwardly point to every point of my body.
Jasmine"Mr Warner, I didn't see you there," I almost screamed when I turned around and saw him behind me, staring at me intensely."I trust whatever was wrong with Ruby has been resolved and Alexander won't be making more appearances," He said without blinking an eyelid.Honestly the last person I expected to see today was Mr Warner and that was at twelve o'clock when he had a meeting with some group of women from a shelter. Not now, not when I just got my hot chocolate and was about to gulp it down.He took a step closer to me and I took one back."Ruby is okay now and I'm sure he wouldn't, Mr Castor doesn't even care about me," I lied through my teeth but if he believed it then that was okay.Another step closer. Another step back."Perhaps we can meet in my office later, some of the figures from the last meeting doesn't make sense and I need your help because it's your notes."My back was almost at the counter at this point and honestly, I haven't felt that amount of fear before.
Jasmine"Let's go on a getaway trip," Alexander's voice woke me up from my sleep, his face covered by my hair while he sucked on the skin of my neck."And where would we go to?" "Somewhere far away, Hawaii, Scotland, Canada, England, Ireland, Paris etc. We have different countries to look at," He placed a kiss on my earlobe.The thought of travelling somewhere with Alexander was thrilling. I would learn things about him I didn't know about before and we would be free from Mr Warner's eyes.But then again, Alexander was someone that was very popular and the moment someone gets a picture of both of us out in the public then everything I ever worked for would be for nought. Reporters and social media detectives would definitely find a way to get me into the limelight.I pushed his head away and stood up, "I see no reason why we should travel or go on a vacation," I pushed myself into a standing position, the duvet that once hid my nudity stripped for my body leaving me bare for Alexande
Jasmine.I did not see Alexander for two days. Work was tight with the elections coming up so soon, everyone was trying to clean up their ends. So many interviews to be scheduled and parties to attend.I didn't see Ruby too. Honestly would have felt so alone if Mr Warner didn't hover around me like some sort of bodyguard and whispered the sort of things I wasn't interested in listening to.If someone had told me dinner at the family house was going to be my escape and I would have gone willingly, I would have laughed and told the person to stop whatever cheap drugs they were on.But there I was, on a Saturday night, sitting across my mother with Amanda at the side. Charles sat at the head of the table. I always felt like an imposter when we were gathered around like this, of course Alexander was around and would always try to make me feel included by doing silly things."So how much progress have you made with the plan?" Charles suddenly asked, deviating from the conversation he was h
Jasmine."He wants us to go on a trip to London, a pleasure trip for two whole weeks," I didn't know I could sound that excited about something as silly as a getaway date that would lead to us getting caught but I was.Gia gave me that half smirk as she moved her hand to the back of her chair, "Well I wasn't invited to this trip and now I'm getting offended," She joked, "But do you think it's a good idea?"Gia knew about our whole situation and I loved her because she didn't judge us or did anything creepy. She just accepted us and made silly jokes whenever she could, most of them to Alexander's expense.I sighed softly, "It's not, I know it's not ideal for us to be together because if this gets out then it's over for all of us," I turned my head to the side and closed my eyes shut, "But I do want to spend some time with him, the last month has been one of the best months I had ever had and it's all because of the amazing people I have met."I wouldn't be able to handle the hurt from
Jasmine.I didn't know how to bring up the news about Paris to Alexander. I couldn't tell Gia or Ruby because they knew nothing about my office scandal.Alexander had invited me over tonight and for the first time in a while, I felt like cancelling the invitation.The mirror in my bathroom turned out to the perfect object to fixate on while I thought about my life choices. I stared at my reflection, noting each and every imperfections on my face while applying a decent size of makeup on my face.I used the brown lip liner to line my lips, dabbed a bit on it before applying lipgloss to make my lips look glossy. Would Alexander be disappointed or mad at me perhaps for agreeing to go to Paris with Mr Warner.Would he come with me as a way to protect me? If I went on the trip with Mr Warner, I could finally finish what I came for and just disappear without Charles running down my throat alongside my mother.If I decided to ignore it and go to London with Alexander, who knew what would hap
Jasmine.We were alone when he asked me to be his girlfriend, something I was extremely grateful for.And even with my emotions all over the place, I was able to set my face in a mask of happiness before turning towards Alexander."I would never have mistaken you for a romantic person Alexander," I screamed out as I rushed forward to give him a hug, basking in the warmth his body gave me.And the fact that I still had a few seconds to keep myself in check.He placed his hand on the lower part of my back and rested his chin on my head. This was a safe space for us.If someone had told me earlier this year that Alexander would ask me to be his girlfriend, I would have spat in his eye and called him a fraud. I didn't even have plans on ever seeing the mother fucker again. Yet, here we were."So I guess that's a yes," Alexander said the moment I freed myself from his body.A yes to Alexander would solve all my issues.I nodded my head rapidly then rose on my tiptoes to give him a kiss, "Y
Jasmine.I enjoyed watching Alexander sleep, it was almost like watching a baby because of how vulnerable he was at that point.His long lashes fluttered a bit, touching his cheekbones. One of the lashes was a bit askew and I almost touched him just to straighten it. His lips looked so kissable.If he wasn't so deep in sleep, he would probably chuckle and talk in that deep morning voice that seemed to send tingles up my spine and set my panties in a twist.I escaped from the house in the dead of the night, few hours after the helicopter brought us back to the city, few hours after I had my last mind-blowing sex with Alexander and few hours after I finally made my decision.I left a handwritten letter to soften the blow of my departure. My home felt like it wasn't even mine anymore since I spent a lot of time at Alexander's and most of my things were there. Would he have them shipped back to me or perhaps burnt them so he would have no excuse to talk to me again.Everything I needed f
