RAHEEM'S POV

Saturday

"Remind me to kill you. Please." I said walking past Lee towards Nadia but he caught up and walked beside me. I needed to learn how to control myself around her, but she doesn't make it easy. She doesn't even know

Would anyone notice, or even care if I did?...

"It's funny I never pegged Sunshine to be the type to make out in an elevator, I guess I shouldn't judge a book by-" He started saying. It was going to be a long night and I really didn't want to hear his voice unnecessarily.

"Don't talk about her or to her. Actually just stop talking. Forever."

"What's your problem?"

"Take a guess." I walked away leaving him to his thoughts. For some reason I still had anger towards him. I was over what happened and what he did but I just couldn't bring myself to forgive him.

"Where's James?" Nadia inquired searching for his familiar face without even turning to acknowledge me.

"James isn't driving."

"Oh, so which one are we taking?" She asked now looking up at me referring to all the cars waiting outside the hotel. Even with the heels she had on she was still significantly shorter and had to look up.

"You tell me." She looked at me puzzled. "Pick one."

NADIA'S POV

"Really?" I asked unsure. He nodded once and I looked back at the variety of different sports cars. "I can't choose, I like all of them...except that one, ew" I pointed to a silver Porsche. I never liked Porsches, I always thought they were ugly and alien-looking.

"You're too indecisive love. Pick one." He repeated.

"Were going to be late then because this is going to take a while" I shrugged.

"No, Were not. You're going to pick a car in the next thirty seconds"

"I-"

"Starting now. Thirty..." He started counting down.

You've got to be kidding me

I just looked around frowning for a minute. Ten seconds to be exact, but who was counting... "But-"

"Twenty, nineteen..."

"If I was you, I'd hurry up" Lee came out of nowhere and added. I glared at him and told him to shut up, he wasn't fazed but he left saying something about not wanting to be seen going in with us. I hated being under so much pressure to make a decision but Raheem was right, I was way too indecisive and i needed to fix it.

My palms were sweaty and Raheem was down to eight seconds. He said if i didn't pick one by the time he finished counting I wouldn't like the consequences. That stressed me out even more.

"Three, Two on-"

"Okay, okay that one!" I said quickly closing my eyes and pointing to an all black Lamborghini "Ooh yea, that one."

"Lucky."

New York was beautiful at night and looked very different compared to when the sun was out. It was quiet in the car and I just stared out the window until Raheem spoke up. "When we get in there do not leave my sight. Yes?"

"Okay...?" I furrowed my brows at his sudden change in behaviour.

"I want to be able to see you at all times." He continued
