One-Time Affair Emotional Outburst.
My grumbling stomach woke me up from sleep and I rose from the bed grudgingly. As I sat up from the bed, I checked my phone. It was 1:12 am. It was becoming a habit to wake up hungry at midnight ever since I had the accident. Carefully through the hallway in order not to stumble into anything, I sluggishly found my way to the equally dark kitchen and I rummaged the wall for the switch. Turning it on, I shrieked at the view in front of me, sending any traces of sleep from my eye.In my line of view were Xavier and Diane smooching on my kitchen counter.On my kitchen counter!!They immediately stopped what they were doing when the light came on but I had already seen the inevitable.“What the...” I cursed and a flushed Diane quickly pushed Xavier forward as she jumped down from the counter. “Wait.” I stopped her from moving over to me. “Don't come over, just.. just continue with what you were doing. I...I only came to get a refill.” I said thankful that I held my water flask.A smile wa

FLASHBACK“Miss. Diane, I won't be home that often so you should feel comfortable.” Keith told Charlotte after the third day she had arrived at his home. “Just feel at home, I'm sure that there are places you'd love to visit so just be free and do what you want. As long as it doesn't breach the contract.” he added.“Okay.” Charlotte managed, too surprised at him.“If that's understood, I would be going now.” he smiled before leaving the house all to her.Stunned, she couldn't tear her gaze away from the entrance. In all of the work she had done, this was the first time someone told her to feel at home and not bother about him.Spinning around swiftly, she squealed before running into her room.Throwing a faded jean and a blue tank top on, she went back to the living room.She was already stepping out when Jack showed up infront of me, startling me.“Sorry, for scaring you.” “No need to apologize, Jack. Moreover, I was too excited.” she beamed happily at him.“Mr

FIONA'S POV.“How about this lip tint?” Amanda asked, walking up to me as she applied it on her lips.I shook my head. “Hmmm, I'm not sure about that. It doesn't look like your style. It looks weird.” I hit her butt jokingly as I checked through the shelf.“I want to try more something bolder. Most of the ones I have are cool colour and moreover guys are attracted to bold girls.” she giggled.“You are such a slut.”“Speaking of guys, what about the guy you said you went to his company? Hm.. Keith right?” she asked and my hands paused mid air. “Did his mom get back to you?” she continued. “I guess not.”“You know, I heard that when his mom tells him to do something, he obeys without question.”“Ohh, she's aristocratic. Interesting. But you know she has to be careful cause he's slipping out of her hands without her knowledge.”I was about saying ‘It can't be possible' when my phone rang.“Speaking of the devil.” I smiled seeing the caller's ID.“Fiona, where are yo

CHARLOTTE'S POV.“Nah, I don't think I'll go.” I refused popping an almond seed into my mouth.“You guys click, you have to give it a try before refusing.” Diane tried convincing me but I was stubborn.“You don't even know his name and you are convinced that anyone who goes out with your friend clicks.” “I might not know his name but Xavier does and if he trusts him, I also do.”“Don't be so cheesy. Moreover he's going to be my boss, how do you expect me to date and work for him? I don't wanna go through that route again.”“Think of it like this, you both first met at a store and then you went to the cafe waiting for your interviewer only to find out he's the one again. Girl, I'll call this fate and nothing else.”“Fate that I should work with him, that's all.” I concluded.“You know there might be a chemistry between you two, not as an employer and an employee but as lovers.”“Lovers of work.” I smiled.“Oh stop it, I'm being serious here.”“Me too!” I shoute

"Char, wake up." "Leave me alone." I groaned lazily, turning to the other side of the bed. "Won't you wake?" she asked but I didn't respond. Suddenly I felt something sting my face. "Argh. "I screamed as I shot my eyes open to see my best friend, Diane chuckling at the edge of the bed. "What? Don't look at me like that. It isn't my fault. I tried waking you nicely but it wasn't working so I was left with no other choice." she smirked. "Why must you use ice water?" "I don't know." she giggled as she entered my bathroom. "Is today not your first day of work at that famous restaurant down the street?" she asked popping her brown head from the bathroom and I grunted. "What is the time?"I yawned as I stretched my hand to the table near my bed for my phone. 7:34 am. "Oh shit!" I shot out of bed, scurrying to the bathroom bumping into Diane as she came out. "Why didn't you wake me up? Now I'm gonna be late on my first day." "Don't blame me. I did my best darling, but you wouldn't bu

*Riiiinnnggg* Slamming my hand on my blaring alarm, I lazily stood up from the bed and I felt a pain shoot through my body but seeing that if I didn't stand up that time I'd be late for work. Dragging my feet, I went into the bathroom to do my morning business. By the time I came out, I heard my phone ringing. Walking over to the table near my bed where I had placed it, I saw a strange number and acting according to my subconscious I answered but no one answered. "Hello. Who is this?" I asked but still no response. "Hey, if you aren't going to talk, I'm hanging up in three," I said already getting annoyed. "One, two, the...." "Hi, Lottie." a familiar cheery male's voice came in. "Xavier? Is that you?" I asked unsurely. "You sure have a retentive memory," he said. "Xavier!" I screamed with joy. "Yeah." he chuckled over the phone. "It's been a long time. How have you been?" "Great. I'm so happy to hear your voice." "I'm also very excited. I can't stop to think that you'll ever
One-Time Affair Heartbreak 2
After that scenario, I couldn't think straight as the picture of them together and also how Dave and I were in the past kept popping into my head making me see the truth. Dave kept looking at her so lovingly and affectionately, a side that I haven't experienced before. "It's for the best." I stated, cleaning a stray tear from my cheeks before entering the elevator with my head bowed. Sadly, I wasn't strong enough to keep my emotions in check and I began to tear up. "Are you okay?" a deep and husky voice said behind me thereby making me jump as I thought I was alone. "Yeah." I sniffed, bringing my hand to my face to wipe the tears from my cheeks when I saw a hand holding a handkerchief towards me. "Thanks." Collecting it, I cleaned my tears and when I turned back to return the handkerchief my breath was caught in my throat, I was speechless. He was the guy from the other day, who had dressed in black, and surprisingly he was still dressed in the same manner just that today he wore
One-Time Affair Meeting stills trouble.
The rest of the week dragged on with me at home treating myself. As fate would have it, the weekend came and here I was, at the entrance of the Church, where Dave was going to get married, now decorated with flowers. From the entrance where I stood, I could see familiar faces whom he had once introduced me to as his fiancée.'Why did you accept to come here in the first place?' my subconscious accused me.'I didn't, I was forced.''No, you weren't. You had the whole week to give him a call, with an excuse why you can't.' my subconscious attacked back and I shook my head vigorously."Are you alright?" I heard a clear, calm voice behind me.Turning around, my twilight meet with a pair of ink iris pairing back at me in amusement and I raised my eyebrow in inquiry."You seemed confused?" he chuckled."Ohhh." I simply said and looked at him again. 'He looks familiar or.....'"Do I kn......""Hey, Charlotte!" a familiar voice squealed behind me, before engulfing me in a tight hug, thereby cu
