A Lover To Him

Chapter Six, Caine Williams

Caine Williams

She hasn't checked up on me this morning, which kind of disappointed me. I was starting to look forward to seeing her every morning as she did her job. Usually, I would try to talk to her, but she wasn't very talkative towards me. I was sure that it had nothing to do with her being tired, although it might have some roll in it. 

It was obvious that she did not wish to see me on any occasion, nor did she wish to talk to me. She avoided my gaze as much as possible, and she only answered with a short response when I asked her something. It has been like this for a week.

She was giving me the cold treatment, but it doesn't affect me a lot.

Of course, I wish she would speak to me and look at me with her mesmerizing grey eyes, but I wasn't bothered by her treatment because I knew it didn't matter how much she would try to avoid me or push me away. I would fight for her. I would fight so much harder for her this time. 

I have nothing to lose right now.

I know she'll be my only shot at a happy ending because she's the only one who owns my heart. She's the only one I'll ever love, and she's the only one I want. It doesn't matter how long it takes for me to convince her that she's the love of my life, but she'll be mine.

Because I always get whatever the fuck I want. 

I know she hates me for what I did all those years ago, and even though I regret it enormously, I still think it was a decision I had to make. I knew she deserved better than the person I was six years ago, and still, I can't believe how close I let her come to me. 

It was never part of the plan.

I know she has every right to hate and detest me, and even though I secretly knew she wouldn't run into my arms straight away and love me like all those years ago, the amount of hatred she holds wasn't what I had anticipated. 

It was foolish of me to think it would be that easy.

I don't know how she did it, but she slipped through the walls around my heart and claimed my heart as her home forever. I can only hope that this time things will work out between us because I don't think I can survive without her anymore. I have done it for almost six years, and there hasn't been a day gone by that my heart didn't long for her presence around me.

Even if all we'll ever be is just friends, I'll still take that because at least I will have her in my life. 

As on cue, the door opens, revealing her. She's still the most beautiful girl I've ever seen, and I still wonder how I didn't notice her until my senior year of high school. She must have been really good at hiding from me or I must have been very blind. 

"Good afternoon to you. How have you been?" She greets me with her soft angelic voice as her pretty eyes look at me. I smile as I realize that this was the most enthusiastic greeting I got out of her. 

It's not much, but improvement. 

"Good afternoon to you too. My morning has been very calm, which is something I still have to get used to." I say, sitting straight so I can see her from a better perspective. She takes the chart from the desk at the other end of the room and quickly reads through it.

"Your mornings are normally filled with meetings and work, huh?" She shoots me a quick look over her shoulder before she focuses on the chart again. She's wearing grey high waist jeans and a dark blue shirt under her white coat. 

"Pretty much, but that's life when you're running one of the biggest media companies. The piles of work are becoming bigger every day, but I got to stick with the doctor's advice, right?" She nods slowly as she checks on me. I follow her movements with my eyes.
