(EDITING)
"What are you doing here?!" I whispered at Laurent as I glared at him intensely.
But I immediately faked a smile when I noticed the target glancing at us.
"Is something wrong?"
A cold feeling brushed down my spine as everyone started to looked at us. Beads of cold sweat ran down my forehead as I tried my best to fake a smile.
This is all your fault, Laurent! I'm definitely going to pull your hair out when we go back to Claw.
Laurent suddenly chuckled, crossing his legs as he took a sip from his champagne. "It's just that, I want to steal Miss Williams badly."
I almost fell down the chair when I heard what he said.
What is he thinking?!
"I mean, she's the perfect secretary I've been looking for."
(EDITING)"If you have the chance to decide will you choose him over me?"My tracks stopped immediately the moment I heard his words. I slowly turned, only to find his gaze locked at my direction, melting something inside me.He didn't any utter any words but his eyes were looking at me with pain. He looked hurt.Why?"Never mind." He turned his back at me and grabbed his suit lying on the bed. "He saved you, naturally you'll choose him over me."Why is he saying things like that?Why does it matter to him?Why does he makes me feel this way?He was about to go when I felt my lips moving on its own."I'll choose you."
(EDITING)"Let's go guys!" Levy happily yelled as she led the way."Oh, s-sorry." I immediately make way when I almost bump with Killian.Mother of cow, I can't even look at him in the eye.After what I've said yesterday, Killian just stared at me then said "Oh, good night" then exited as if nothing happened. The moment I've realized what I've said, I want to tie myself up using my chain. That was too embarassing!"Harp! How's your day with Killian?" Levy put her arm around me."What? We didn't do anything!"But I immediately shut my mouth when I've realized what I've said.One day, I'm really going to pull this tongue of mine.
(EDITING)"You two need a moment to be apart. The awkwardness is killing me." Kase suggested as she raised her eyebrows on us."Levy and Flynn, Killian and I, Harper and Levi. This will be our team up for today." She added.Why is she with Killian? Does she have any intentions behind that?I felt like she decided the team based on her personal feelings. I mean, we should be professional when working!"Why are you frowning like that?" I immediately shifted into a poker face when Levy grinned at me. "Don't you like the team up? Who do you want to partner with, Harp?" She asked with a mocking voice.
(EDITING)Third Person's Pov"Not a chance, Howl," Killian went closer to his ears. "She's mine.""Killian? What are you doing here?" Harper who didn't hear a thing went closer as she put off the dirt on her clothes."Why? You don't like me here?""I never said that!"'What is wrong with him? He's unusually hot tempered today.' Harper thought to heself.She immediately flinched when Killian went closer, his scent filling up her lungs as his neck went nearer to he face."Why do you have so much leaves in your head?" He muttered, backing away as he put off the leaves on her head."Harper, let's go," Levi grabbed her hands while looking intently at Killian.He never go against Killian. He was someone he respects but now,for unknown reasons he wanted to punch his face.Killian was just thinking of the same."We're a team so we need to get going," Levi smirked at Killian as the guy stared at him i
(EDITING)(EDITING)"Harper, I-""WILLIAMS!"My heart almost dropped the moment I heard his booming voice. I turned over, completely shaken up when Killian suddenly grabbed me roughly in the wrist, his eyes piercing sharply on me."Follow me." He firmly stated, his eyes completely burning with rage.Did I do something wrong?What happened?Will he hurt me?"K-killian," My voice felt like a whisper as the nervousness filled me up until my throat. I felt really scared. His eyes a while ago, it was looking at me with so much killing intent.My hands were dead cold as I tried to keep up with his fast pace, my legs all wobbly. It was hard for me to stand but I swalloed hard, trying to hid the fact that I'm too scared right now.He was never like that.Did I messed up?He was even calling me o b y my surname."William-"
(EDITING)"Harper,"I quickly flinched when I heard Killian's voice from behind. My heart thumped intensely when I notice that he is too close, his warm breath tickling my ear.I quickly put a distance between us and positioned myself in the farthest corner of the bed.His eyebrows furrowed. "Why? Don't you like me?""What? It's not that I don't like you, I mean I like you. Wait what?!" My head was completely in turmoil. I do not know what in thw world am I saying right now."Here's your breakfast," He put a small table on my bed, filled with freshly cooked warm meal.
(EDITING)I quickly flinched when I felt his warm arms wrapped around me. My heart started beating like crazy as my cheeks turned red, my mind completely in turmoil. Butterflies flew in my stomach, my hands hastily covering my face.I never thought Killian would be someone who likes to cuddle!He put his head on my shoulder, taking a peek at my reaction. "Why don't you like hugging me?" His bedroom voice tickled my ears as his warm breath pass through my skin. He buried his head on my neck, making my heart go wilder."Hmm, you smell nice." He added, cuddling me softly from the back."I-it's not that I don't like it, it's kind of, uhm...." I definitely don't know how to put it in words."uncomfortable?"I mean, we just confessed to each other last night and this is all too sudden on me!Would you act normal if your CEO turned classmate turned partner will turn as your lover?!
(EDITING)"What's the next schedule?" He asked as he stand still in the mirror, fixing his tie neatly.I can't help but to pout as I sat on the sofa. I want to put his neck tie for him, but I don't have an idea on how to. It looks really complicated.Kase scan through the clipboard she was holding. "You have a meeting with the Hunt Group's CEO.""Tsk," Killian sighed. "That complicated guy again.""And another thing," Kase added. "Since you didn't show up when you invited Mr. Okimura, he's pretty upset as of now. You need to meet with his daughter as an apology. You know how he kept pushing you with Ms. Ayaka."Ms. Ayaka? Who in the world is that?!I quickly glared at Killian's direction, sending a warning that he shouldn't go but he didn't even look at me.
