Celebrity Crush

Chapter 17

Aven's POV:

We leave for the business trip on Monday and I am so excited but also terrified. The crew and I have invited Bailey and Ezekiel to a movie tonight. We're all going to get all dressed up and go for dinner and enjoy a Friday night out before we go away.

After working with Ezekiel and listening to his stories, I knows how close Bailey and him are, I can't fully understand their relationship, but, I understand how much they will miss each other.

Ezekiel was saying that this week will be the longest they've gone without each other in 5 years. They've been there for each other through all the highs and lows in life. They got so used to always seeing each other that it's always hard when they aren't together.

"Hey Z," I say, noticing Ezekiel zoning out.

"Yes?"

"Do you and Bailey want to sleep over at my place tonight after the movie? I'll have the other three there too."

"Yeah, that would be fun."

"Ok, sounds good," I smile.

He texts Bailey to let her know, she probably won't get it until she gets home from work but it's better if he texts her now before he forgets.

*time skip*

"I'll see you tonight Z, I can pick you and Bailey up from your place if you want?"

"That sounds perfect, pick us up at around 6:30?"

"Sounds good. Looking forward to it," I say, giving Ezekiel a hug as we're leaving work.

"I'm looking forward to it too," he hugs me back.

Just like our hands fitting together well, when we hug, we just fit.

Ezekiel's POV:

Packing up to finish and leave work, Aven and I head towards the elevator together, us being the last to leave every Friday.

"I'll see you tonight Z, I can pick you and Bailey up from your place if you want?"

"That sounds perfect, pick us up at around 6:30?"

"Sounds good. Looking forward to it," he says, giving me a hug as we're walking out.

"I'm looking forward to it too," I hug him back.

I love when we hug, it's something I wish I could do more often. We seem to fit so well together, even when we hold hands, our hands just fit together.

We give each other a final wave as we both go to our cars, both of us with a big smile on our faces.

I always thought he had a reputation for not smiling, but every time that I've been with him, he smiles quite often. Maybe it's just another character the media has made up.

My dad has been loving all of the different stories the two of us have been getting in the magazines. Especially the ones when Aven is holding my hand.

"you should wear one of your new outfits," Bailey says to me when she sees me sitting on my floor. She can obviously tell that I've given up coming up with outfit ideas.

I jump up from the floor, I completely forgot that we went shopping a while ago and I bought new outfits.

I decide to go with the first one we bought, a white turtleneck with green corduroy jeans and a black, cactus leather belt. (cactus leather is a wonderful alternative to regular leather and an environmentally friendly alternative). I pair it with my black, high top vans. Running my fingers through my curls to fluff them up a bit.
