Obsession Of A Psychopath ☠︎︎

Chapter 54: 𝑪𝒓𝒖𝒔𝒉

༆Zack's POV༆
I stared at the ceiling for a while, my hands spread across the bed.

"A day without Hunter huh? this is going to be one long day. I don't even feel like going to work today, but staying here all alone will make it much worse" I spoke raising my hand as if trying to reach for the ceiling.

I sat up then took my phone and dialed Hunter's line, his phone had been off since the previous night. I had no idea how they were or if they arrived safely.

His phone was still off.

"Dam it hunter, why did you carry the stupid thing if you'd keep it off the entire time" I boomed then tossed my phone on the bed.

I walked into my bathroom and took a shower, I got dressed for work and then dragged myself to my car. Everything seemed so pointless, I just wanted to turn the car around and go back to my penthouse and eat junk food till I passed out.

"Everyone is right, I'm too attached to you. I can't even go through a day properly without talking to you. Crap" I commented as I drove.

I reached the office and got to work, luana brought me a cup of coffee.

"Are you settling in just fine?" I asked. That was her first day of work.

"Yes sir, everything is running smoothly" she assured.

I stared at her, she looked really beautiful without her hair hiding her face, I unknowingly found myself smiling.

"Sir are you OK," she asked.

"Huh- yeah I'm OK" I assured.

She nodded and then left. I laid back in my chair.

'She reminds me so much of Courtney'

'Don't let yourself get carried away Zack, she's not Courtney'

My phone started ringing, I picked it up and my eyes widened when I saw it was a video call from Hunter.

"Hunter you got a lot of nerves, I've been trying to reach you since last night" I yelped when I picked up.

He had a broad smile on his face, like a little child.

"I didn't want anyone disturbing us, I wanted to call you this morning but wasn't sure if you were still asleep. How are you" he questioned.

"Bored to hell, I miss you so much it's annoying" I commented.

"Yeah I know what you mean, but I think this is good for us, I think having some distance between us will be good, this way we can have a lot more to talk about when we met again" he commented.

"I don't want to, why fix something that's not broken" I complained.

"You look like your house got burnt down, just because you didn't hear from me and the first thing I did when I woke up was wonder if you are awake too. I think we are too obsessed with each other" he expressed.

"I get your point, just promise you'll be calling often while you are there," I asked.

"Of course but we will be gone for only a week" he reminded.

"Where's Amanda anyway," I asked.

"Still asleep" he replied.

"Huh, it's almost 10 AM. What time did you let her sleep" I asked.

"At 6 in the morning, she was complaining of not having any feeling in her legs. I've tried several times to wake her up but she's out cold" he noted rubbing his neck.
