The Dangerous Elysium

24

"Come to me
In the night hours
I will wait for you
And I can't sleep
'Cause thoughts devour
Thoughts of you consume
I can't help but love you
Even though I try not to
I can't help but want you
I know that I'd die without you"

Song : War of hearts by Ruelle

I looked at him , my eyes wide opened as my mouth closed and opened like a fish . The bags were long forgotten on the floor . He looked at me with eyebrows raised .

I didn't exactly have a direct answer to his his question . How can I tell him that my daddy -left me-his company-people -are -trying -to -take -over- it- and- somehow- I -am- the- hero -in- the- movie and my '' I -am- not -poor- I -am-rather- apparently -a-multi -millionaire -heir ''condition .

''Good question .'', that is all that came out my mouth . I gave him a tight smile .

He sighed loudly and took a seat on my bed , burying his head into his hands . I sighed looking at him , as I dragged my body down along the door . I rested my forehead on my knees . I could feel a headache brewing , which had become a common thing these days . All this shit definitely had mental impact on my body .

''Whats going on ?'', Everett looked at me ,''and don't you dare fucking lie .''

His stare was hard . He wanted answers and I didn't wanted to give them .

''I cant tell exactly .'', I replied my head again rested against my knees . ''You cant tell or you can't tell me ?.'', he said , his jaws clenched and lips tight . He knew the answer to that after seeing the look on his face .

'' I' m sorry . I don't think i'm ready to tell you . '', I lied . I wanted to tell him , but I couldn't risk anything right now . I'm too scared to loose everything that I have found and i'm not fucking it up .

''I'm not asking for everything Pearl but I do need something . Whatever it is that is going on is big and it started from you fathers will, i'm sure of that . But i'm sorry , I won't be able to take a huge blow all at once . I can't fucking do this right now . ", he said frustratingly but he didn't raise his voice .

He got up and grabbed the door knob . '' move '', he said . I looked at him pleadingly .

'' God , are you even a scholarship student ? I don't fucking know anything . You were supposed to trust me . How can we even continue without trust ? '', he said leaning against the wall .

''I trust you .'', I replied with all my sincerity and tears in my eyes . '' But you don't show it . And words are not enough for me , so please move .'', he said with a long hard stare at me .

I bit my lip and gulped to stop the lump in throat from bursting . I slowly got up and opened the door , he looked at me softly for a moment but then his face became emotionless and he looked away and stalked out of the room .

I removed my shoes , buried my head into the pillow and let out a huge scream , thrashing the pillow , until my beddings were completely destroyed . I exhaled some air as my hair covered my face and were a complete mess .

I heard my phone ring . I grabbed it from my purse . It was Mr. Ivanov . I took a deep breathe and composed myself . I cleared my throat and answered .

''Hello Mr.Ivanov .''

'' Please Pearl . You're family .Call me Ian .''

''Right, Ian. ''

'' So I know you have met up with my daughter , who will be helping you in London .''

'' I have yes and she surprisingly took me shopping .''

''of course '', he chuckled and said .

''Well I wanted to inform you that , I will be flying to London tomorrow and I would like you to accompany me to the UK headquarters building , London ''

'' I actually have school tomorrow . Its a Monday .'', I winced and said .

'' Right , well we can always meet up after your school is over . I also request you dress appropriately . We will be meting some important people and partners, who are in support .''

'' Right I will do that and be prepared with all I can do in this much time .''

'' Alright . Have a goodnight .''

and then he cut the phone .

I knew I had to make things right with Everett . He's right .I mean he saved my life , and I have to show him that I trust him . I cant disappoint another person in my life .

I cant give him everything but I can give him something .
