Fame And Desire

Chapter 17

Gianna's POV

I was quiet throughout the car ride home, Vincent came over as soon as he heard what happened and bailed me. He had started working at the hospital now and used almost half of his paycheck to bail me out.  I promised to pay him back but received a death glare from him. 

My phone dinged and I opened up my mail. I was shocked to see a lot of hate mails from people I didn't know

' ya bitch, why use him?

' I wish I could burn all those bloody hair off your scalp'

I cringed.

I realized Tyron had posted something on his page, I tapped on the button and the message opened clearly, the tears started seeping through and before I knew Vincent had stopped the car and was consoling me.

" calm down Gigi" he said as he hugged me close. shutting my eyes , I let myself fall into a quite uncomfortable sleep.

I woke up the next morning in Vincent's  bed, well I didn't realize that till I had screamed and pushed him off the bed thinking he was a random stranger in my bed.

" remind me never to wake up with you in the same bed, we didn't do anything, you fell asleep and I thought it best to bring you here instead of your house"

I smiled" thanks, I don't know what i'd do without you"

he rolled his eyes at me and blew me a kiss.

" so what now, wanna go open up huggies or you'd go to the hospital with me"'

" I would open up huggies, i'm not ready to see Bibi now." he worked in the same hospital that Bibi was in.

He sighed and got dressed leaving for work a few hours later.

My tummy pains were till intact, I hadn't eaten anything since yesterday and I was bent on continuing this hunger strike. Why? Because I was devastated.

I dressed up in a bit of sunshine dress and walked to Huggies. I finished dusting up after opening the shop and began making the coffee, Vincent and I decided on adding pastries so i baked them and waited for my customers to troop in.

*
I sighed as the last customer walked out for the day. The whole day I'd been reading hate mails and finally deleted my account, customers that recognized me kept scowling at me and I cringed at the effort made to contain them than sass them off.

Vincent stopped by and we both walked home in silence.
" Bibi asked of you"

" what did she say?"
" asked why you weren't visiting no more"

" she heard what happened?"
" not sure "
I sighed

" I know working in a coffee shop ain't your dream but at least try having fun and look on the bright side, someway somehow you're gonna enjoy life"
I nodded and winked at him.

" you love me I know,"
I snorted

Finally we got home and I went to my solemn apartment, thank God they didn't take all this from me too, I wasn't ready to go back to a life of pick pocketing.

I took what Vincent said in and decided to go for a night stroll. Not gonna lie , I missed Tyron a lot. I needed to find a way to apologize to his family.

My stroll took me to a particular club, I entered and ordered myself a vodka, too strong but who cares. Half way through my third drink, a stranger took the empty seat by me and smiled " hey pretty " he said
I smiled , he was a red head like me, but his hair had a deep dye to it. His lips were a perfect pink and his body was to die for, that couldn't be Tyron definitely but this guy was hot,

Before I could respond, the pain shot up from my stomach and I found myself reeling into the stranger's arms.

Didn't know what happened after that.

***
I woke up in a daze, found myself in a dark room, dark because it was painted black. I knew it was morning because the sun rays peeped through the room.

" Strawberry , you're awake? " the stranger from yesterday stated and I almost jumped at his voice.

I turned to face him and he was shirtless, I had never seen Tyron shirtless so I couldn't compare but this was something different.
I couldn't let him see I was drooling.
" as you can see, watermelon, " well because his hair was the color of the edible part of watermelon "
" too early for the nick name stage baby"
I snorted
" who are you and why am I in your bed"
" first off, you fell on me yesterday and I had to bring you here" he smiled the perfect smile.

" wait I know you " I stared closely and almost choked on my own drool
" you're Gaston Styles from GS Media in Las Vegas"
He owned the freaking large company and I was in his bed.
" you're right Strawberry "
I literally screamed

" and I'm guessing you must be Tyron Russels newest break up, you're pretty or else we would have made world wide news about you and how he's busily destroying your image out there"

" so you know me,
" yes you're the reason I came to New York"

" for what?"

" to offer you a job , strawberry"
