What Could Have Been Us

Chapter 7

As I'm walking downstairs, I can't help but see Chase standing by the door. I look at my father in confusion. Did he stay here last night? I asked my father, hoping he didn't. "Yeah, I said he could because he was already here. I said he could just spend the night." "Oh" was all I could say while walking. "You ready? " Chase asks while looking down at his phone. "Well, maybe if you stop looking at girls' asses all day, we could finally leave," I say while rolling my eyes. "So eager," he says with a smirk and walking away. When we finally start driving, I can feel chase's eyes on me. "Why the fuck do you keep staring at me? " instead of him answering, he just keeps side-looking me. I finally just give up and ignored it. Knowing we have a long drive back, I fell asleep. When I woke up, I was in bed. Not sure where I am at first, I look around. I finally remember I'm in Chase's house. I decided I wanted to take a shower. Luckily, there is a bathroom in this room. As I'm taking a shower, I take that opportunity to think. I'm gonna kill him. I mumble to myself. I will become the world's greatest assassin and take over his kingdom. I tell myself as I step out of the shower. As I stare at myself in the mirror, I can't help but smile. I will kill him on our wedding day and I will run away. I say with a smirk. With that, I finally walk out of the bathroom and I decided I wanted to explore. I didn't realize how big Chase's house was and it's not dirty. I giggle at myself. I finally make it to this one door, and without hesitation, I open it. When I look around, it's nothing but black. Black bed sheets to black walls. The only light you would see would be from the window. As I walk into the room, I can't help but look at how big the bed is. When I look around even more,  I spot a photo. When I realize who it was, my eyes went wide, realizing that I'm in Chase's room. "Someone's up. " I jumped and turn around to see chase leaning against the doorway shirtless. I can't help but stare at his naked chest and how his olive skin is so perfect. And how his abs are so perfect, and the fact he has tattoos all over his body. "Take a picture, love. It will last longer." Somehow, that brought me out of my trance. "Fuck off," I say while rolling my eyes and trying to walk past him. Instead, he grabbed my arm, stopping me. "Where do you think you going, love?" He says in a low tone. "Um, I" somehow being inches from his face makes me stumble on my words. "I was just leaving" "but what were you doing in my room? His body is so close to mine that I can smell his minty body wash off his body. Neither of us at this point are saying anything but just staring at each other. The tension is so high that you could break it with glass. I will not lose this little game we have of staring. I think to myself. Then suddenly he is so close to me I can feel his breath. "If you wanted to fuck love, you could have just asked." I can't help but blush at his statement and quickly hide it. I try to get out of his embrace. But he is still holding on to my arm and gripping it a little tighter. Instead of backing down, I get even closer to his face. "Unfortunately darling, I already fucked your dad," I say with a wink. That grabbed his attention and he let go. He looked so pissed that he wanted to kill me. "GET THE FUCK OUT." He says nothing but with anger in his voice. As I'm walking away, I can't help but laugh harder at the fact that pissed him off. Maybe living with Chase Cruz won't be so bad. I mumbled to myself.
