When love is your biggest secret

The unexpected

🌹

It was now Saturday and I was going grocery shopping and trying to get ready for tonight to go to the bar with Jason and Stephanie. I was picking things up in the meat section when I hear someone call my name.

"Mariah, I thought that was you." "Hey Lisa how are you?" I said giving her a hug. "I'm good I'm shopping for family dinner tomorrow would you like to come over I would love to make you apart of the family since your new you can always come to us." She said picking up some meats as well. "Are you sure I don't want to intrude?" I questioned because I feel like I already did yesterday.

"No of course not, me and the family already have been talking about inviting over for dinner some time this upcoming week. You are always welcome to come to dinner and hang out with the family. Just think about it like we're your second family seance your first one is back home." She explained. "Well I can't pass off a nice gesture." "Alright see you at 6:00 on Sunday." She says. But I realize I shouldn't show up empty handed. I was so mad that I didn't bring anything yesterday night. "Wait Lisa can I bring anything like dessert?" "Baby you don't have to." She said rubbing my arm. "No I want to I love to bake please let me do this." I said grabbing her hand. "Fine only because I loved baked goods. See you Tomorrow sweetie." "See you tomorrow Lisa."

It was now 10:30 at night and we where supposed to meet up at the bar at 11:30 so I was taking my shower now. I was putting lotion on my body and then I did my hair and put on something more sexy but classy to make me feel myself. Also because Jason and Stephanie never saw me without my work clothes and I wanted them to see that I can do it both ways.

I the kept my hair like it was yesterday and just throw on my nude heels and put on my jewelry. I sprayed my perfume and grabbed my purse and head out the door.

I walked into the bar walking father in seeing that it is really packed and people dancing and jamming to DMX. I find the sitting at a table closer to the back. "It looks more like a club to me." I said stopping at the table. "Yeah well we thought maybe we could relax and unwind and get are drink and party on." Says Stephanie. "Okay well in that case let's get to drinking."

We took about three shots and I was buzzed. "Okay do you prefer giving or receiving?" Stephanie asked and since I was drunk off my ass I decided to give out this very private and personal information about myself. "Well don't judge me I never received. They always were worried about them getting off." I said drink my shot. "Girl are you kidding me. Your missing out." Stephanie said looking around.

"We need to find you someone asap. Come on." She got up from her side in the booth and dragged me to the bar. "You can always find them here. Do you see any eye candy?" She said looking around. I smiled and turned to the left and saw him. "Oh god." "What girl who is that?" She said staring at him. "That's Roberts son are boss." I said turning around facing the bar. "Well do you know him have you met him?" She said moving closer to my ear do to it being loud.

"Yeah I meet him yesterday when Robert invited me to the same sons welcome home party." "Well he's hot and I can tell you have a thing for him so let's just call him over here." She said. "Hey you?" She said yelling at him he looked away from his friends confused trying to figure out was she talking to him.

"Stop it." I whispered hitting her arm. "Well he's coming." She said with a big smile. "Hey my friend here was just eyeing you and I believe you guys know each other." She said as I turned around. I saw his confused face turn into a smile. "Well if it isn't miss city girl." He said moving next to me. "Well if it isn't Mr. Johnny Storm." I said as he was looking at me seductively and looking me up and down like he was ready to take me right here on this bar.

"Well I believe my work here is done." Stephanie says as she walks off. "Well how has the city girl been? Let's get to know each other." He said nudging me. "Well wouldn't you want to know." I definitely was trying to make him work for it. "Oh I do. What I are you sipping on?" He said about to flag the bartender. "I'm just going to have a water I want to sober up so I can remember this conversation tomorrow. You know if we want to get to know each other."

I got my water and decided to let him in to my life. "I've been trying to find some new clients for my at home business." I said getting a good look at his outfit. He was wearing a plaid shirt wear you could see his tattoo peak out from the top and dark blue jeans and you can't for get the Boston hat and his chain that dangled around his neck. God I never wanted a chain to dangle above my face so bad.

Part of me couldn't believe that I was thinking of my bosses son in this type of way but part of me liked the risk of it all. "Oh what do you do?" He said drinking his beer. "I do hair I always loved the idea of making someone's day buy doing there hair and making them feel like there that bitch. It's such an ego boost once you get your hair done." I said smiling about the joy that is put on my clients faces.

"Wow I can tell that you love what you do." He said grabbing my hand and then pulling it away. I was kind of sad he pulled away. Did he not like me in that way or is he just trying to hit it and quit it. "So what are you planning on doing since your on your little break from filming?" I asked wondering how long he will be staying back home.

"Well I'm here for 6 months so I'll be here for the holidays and I've just been planning on chilling with my family maybe we can stand by that offer and I take you on a date." He said as I've been hot and ready since I saw him laughing and talking to his friend. So he does want to see where this can go. I don't know why these next words came out my mouth but they sure enough did. "Maybe we should skip the date for now and you come back to my place and we can have a little fun." I said whispering in his ear.

"Well what are you waiting for let's go?" He said pulling me to the exit.
