THE END OF A BEGINNING

CHAPTER 13

CHRISTINE'S P.O.V.

UNEDITED

i didn't sleep well last night mostly because of Mr. Undefeated. He just brought back so many memories, memories of Aaron. The messages they reminded me of how cocky Aaron was and this guy was excatly the same as cocky as him. But he wasn't my Aaron. That's the only difference. No one can ever replace him.

What am i thinking?! I shouldn't be thinking of Aaron right now. I've got a meeting to attend. So i started off with my usual routine and ended up at the closet. What should I wear? It should be something classy and elegant and MUST give the look of a professional who means buisness. I finally chose a grey outfit. It composed of a grey top with a square shaped kinda of a neck and a plain grey skirt which hugged my curves perfectly. I was now all set to go and show MR. UNDEFEATED who is going to cry today.

I reached the building but as I was about to enter the conference hall. I remembered that I'd forgotten my laptop in the car. Dumb me! so as I made my way to the elevator. I collided with someone but just said "sorry" and hurried out. That was impolite of me but hello?! I'll get late for the meeting and I don't like being late.

As soon as I found my laptop. I hurried back to the conference hall. I was panting by the time I opened the door to the Conference hall. I said an apology for being late and sat down at my place. I was drinking a glass of water when I saw something that just shocked me it was as if someone had shot me right there in that organ called heart. I choked on my water and started coughing. That something had set a fire in me actually not something but someone. And that someone was none other than the devil himself AARON......... AARON VANDERHOLT.

AARON'S P.O.V.

The moment I saw her my heart stopped beating. Yesterday night when I texted her i never knew it was her my MISS. CHANEL. My heart it had accelarated to a whole new rate when I saw the name on the text Christine Middleton. I hadn't contacted her since Highschool ended. I just didn't have the courage to. She was as beautiful as before or much more beautiful. The time we collided when I heard her sweet voice again. I just couldn't help myself but turn around to have a look at her. It had been ages since I'd seen her beautiful face even though I'd the whole conference to gaze at her but I just couldn't let this moment go.

But much to my disappointment the elevator doors had already closed. I just shrugged and went inside and greeted everyone and sat down. My colleagues were talking to me but I wasn't paying any attention to them. The clock was ticking by and I was losing my patience. I just couldn't bear it anymore. Where is she? Why had she run away like that? Did she get to know that it was me? Had anything bad happened? Right now all I wanted was to go find her. I was going to stand up right that moment when the doors burst open. There she was panting. Her face was flushed. It was as red as a tomato. I still remembered this face, the same face that blushed at every flirtatious comment of mine I'd missed it so much. I'd missed her so much. She said a quick apology and sat down. She was drinking water when our eyes met and at that instant it was as if the world had stopped right that moment. I could stare at those beautiful eyes till the world ends. She lowered her gaze and started coughing. She was choking. I felt a need to rush by her and check if she was okay.

But I couldn't. I'd to act all professional so I stuck to my seat. I saw she had stopped coughing and looked at her. I just couldn't help myself and asked her "Are you okay Miss chan...." i stopped right there in my sentence and corrected myself "sorry Miss Middleton are you okay?" Only did we both knew that, this sentence had many hidden feelings ,many hidden questions,many different meanings. She looked at me, waited for a moment and said "Yes I'm okay. Thank you for your concern".

It was quite in there for the moment being when my colleague nudged me and told me that it was time to start the meeting. I recovered back to being proffesional and cleared my throat and stood up to begin the meeting.

CHRISTINE'S P.O.V.

Who knew that my rival would turn out to be none other than the jerkhead himself? He had just talked to me in his velvety voice that had attracted quite a few girls towards him including me. He had asked me if I was okay. What did he suppose? would i be fine when he had not contacted me since ever? when he had left me without a word? what was he expecting he'll come back suddenly and change my life again? Not this time. I just gave him a nod saying that I was okay and thanking him for his concern. His so called concern.

The meeting had started. He stood up and asked if I wanted to start first or should he? I said I will. I just wanted to get this over with. So I started my presentation and started explaining as to why I should be the one closing off the deal rather than him. Why they could trust my company and not his or him.So I continued with the profits my company could earn the paRty and usual. I'd hesitated at first to start because of him being the sole reason as to why. But then I remember that he was also the sole reason as to why I'd started working so much, I'd done all this to forget about him, to get rid of his memories,to forget about him.

AARON' P.O.V.

I'd asked her to start the presentation first so I could point out the flaws and do something that will impress the party and get me the deal. But I'd failed rather miserably cause here I was paying no attention to what she was saying but soaking all her beauty inside of me as if there will be no tomorrow. We won't meet again. Her melody of a voice and the dress she was wearing just emphasized more of her beauty and perfectly hugged her curves. I couldn't help but stare. I also couldn't help but notice how every time she was nervous of a point , she twirled the pen in her fingers. And the beautiful smile that she gave every time she referred to the benefits.

She had ended her presentation with a smile that reached upto her ears. I knew that expression so well, she'd grinned like this everytime she was proud of herself and was quite confident that we wee going to win but now it wasn't a we but her alone. Now it was my turn for the presentation.
