“Isabella you can get a cab home so stop thinking too much into things. Tonight is going to be a great night so please just trust us for once.” I trusted them with my life and what’s the worst that could happen?
Nothing, because I wasn’t going to let anything happen. Then all the thoughts I’ve been shoving aside came fourth. The real reason I didn’t want to go out was because I was scared. Scared that Joshua would be there. As much as I didn’t want to admit it to myself, there was just something about him that made me weak at the knees. It wasn’t only his good looks that attracted me to him, not that that wasn’t part of it but there was something else. Yet I couldn’t quite put my finger on it. He certainly managed to anger me but that wasn’t it either.
“We’re here” Lisa shouted out seeming more excited than I’ve ever seen before. Looking out of the window I near on fainted. This place was no club or even a restaurant. Right there in front of me was a bloody mansion. You know the ones only the rich and famous could afford. I could hear Lisa and Elle laughing. “It’s amazing isn’t it? Wait until you see the inside. Seriously when we came here last night I nearly wet myself.” Lisa said as Elle just kept nodding like those little bobbing headed dogs you’d have in your car.
“Who owns this place?” I asked still staring in amazement of the beauty of this place. “It’s belonged to one of Paul’s friend but we haven’t met him yet. Well I don’t think we have but then again I was so pissed last night that I don’t really remember that much. However, I do remember the mind blowing sex though! Damn Robert is not only virtuous on the eyes but in bed WOW… just wow. He was like…” I had to stop Elle there otherwise Lisa and I would’ve had to listen to every detail of Elle’s night of mind blowing sex.
“Ok I get it. I don’t need the details.” I quickly said hoping that would put an end to it but the way Elle’s eyes went all dazed I knew she wasn’t going to spare us the details. Luckily for Lisa and me though, a man wearing a suit opened the car door for us before Elle could say anymore.
“That was a close one.” I whispered yelled to Lisa. “Too close.” Lisa replied as she exited the car behind me.
As we reached the big doubled glass doors another well suited man was stood there waiting to take our coats. This place was unbelievable. Everything surrounding me was made of glass, even down to the walls. The entire entrance hall was lit by dim lights along with fresh flowers placed right in the centre. The staircase was even made of glass which was lit by a soft creamy glow giving the place a warming cosy effect.
My jacket was removed and placed into a cupboard along with Lisa’s and Elle’s. Elle nudged me. ”Stop drooling. Come on I’ll show you around later. We are already late as it is and I bet they’re all waiting for us.” Elle took me by the arm and started walking towards the back of the building. I tried to stop her and ask who the others were but before I could get a word in, Paul who I remembered from the club was running towards us.
“About bloody time” he shouted and then he spotted me. “Oh yes its miss feisty. Am I happy to see you, I didn’t think you were going to come.” I gave him a look as if to say what the hell but he just laughed and linked arms with me as if I was his best friend.
“Hmm Paul where are you taking me?” I asked as we started going in the opposite direction to Lisa and Elle. My heart was up in my mouth. I didn’t know Paul and he was taking me somewhere, where I hadn’t a clue but I had a bad feeling I wasn’t going to like where. “Don’t worry my friend, you have just made my night or should I say my life. This is going to be so funny just play along with me ok.” The big smile on Pauls face had me feeling extremely nervous. “Play along with what?” I asked. “No time to explain now, just go along with everything I do and say ok.” I was just about to scream at him telling him it’s not ok when we entered what looked like an office. My legs began to wobble as my heart started pounding against my chest. There sitting behind the big expensive glass desk was the very person I was trying to stay away from.
“Hey look who came to see me.” Joshua’s lips were in a tight straight line as he stared daggers at Paul. I could tell Paul was trying to wind Joshua up and although I usually wouldn’t go along with something like this, I couldn’t help myself. Trying to gather myself together I placed a big smile on my face.
“Hello Joshua. Paul here is just showing me around the house. Isn’t he just adorable?” I said while pitching Paul’s cheek. I heard Joshua make a strange strangled sound as Paul looked into my eyes. However, I ignored him and continued starring at Paul. I felt kind of guilty doing what I was doing but at the same time I couldn’t help but wonder why Paul was doing this. Then I started to over think, as I do. Why was Joshua getting so wound up about this? Maybe he was just having a bad day??No that can’t be it. He couldn’t really like me could he? He had only met me at the club and we hadn’t even spoken much, well that’s if you don’t call arguing talking, I thought to myself.
The scraping of a chair had my head spinning around to face Joshua; only he was no longer at his desk but standing right in front of me.
Paul and Joshua were having some kind of stare down as I stood there nervously sandwiched in between them. Seeing Paul struggling not to laugh made me want to laugh but one look at Joshua and I kept my mouth shut. What was up with these two? Feeling uncomfortable and way out of place I didn’t have a clue what to do but I sure as hell wasn’t going to stand here in between these two when I barely knew them.
“Ok you two! I don’t know what the hell you’re both playing at but I want to be back with my friends. So Paul move your ass now.” I turned to walk out only to be stopped in my tracks. I knew right away who by. By the way my body reacted. It was the same fuzzy tingling warming sensation I had felt the night at the club when Joshua near enough had me sitting on his lap. Without realizing it I had leaned into his touch, ending right up against his chest. I fought against my hormonal crazy body and tried to put some distance between us but Joshua wasn’t letting me go. His arms were wrapped nice and snug around my waist holding me in place against his chest. With my face buried into his chest his manly fresh scent along with his cologne was sending my body into an alarming melting frenzy.
