Always, Arlo [Published]

Chapter 22

Jealousy

"Like what you see Mr Saint?" Nini questions jokingly. "Yes, I always do." He admits.

"Are we still talking about the makeup Mr Saint?" Nini asks with a smirk on her lips, knowing she got a slight confession out of Arlo. He bites down on his lip piercing with a little sheepishness, realizing what she had just done. Nonetheless he grins before speaking, "I'm talking about all of her, Nini." He puts his hand on her shoulder and gazes at her with sincere eyes, she turns to face him with an raised eyebrow at how straightforward he is. I tense in my chair, my body goes a little weak at his words, he's so calm and so obvious about his thoughts, that it makes me nervous.

"I think Mr Saint might be a little out of it." I clarify to Nini as my chest begins to heave a little heavier at the way he turns his attention from Nini onto me. He licks his rose colored lips, glistening them as he gazes at me. My eyes flicker rapidly from his eyes to his lips, struggling to keep my focus. Until I eventually force myself to stop looking at Arlo and keep my attention on Nini. A little chuckle escapes his lips and I roll my eyes at his obvious amusement to my fluster. "Mr Saint stop teasing my model, her skin feels hot to the touch!" Nini scolds and her Nigerian accent seeps through a bit as she swats his hand away from her shoulder in a joking but serious manner.

Arlo lets out an actual laugh this time, one that shakes his body with amusement. He's enjoying the moment, enjoying knowing how he makes me feel and how easy it is for him to make me a mess. He has no shame at all, not even in front of Nini. "Apologies, I just came here to show our new model the new post Saintwear made but I got a little distracted in the process." He says with innocence plastered on his face. I can practically see the halo floating above his head right now.

"A little distracted huh?" Nini mocks with her lips pursed forward in playful annoyance. A smirk plays on his lips as he takes her words lightly. He then gets closer to me, pulling his phone out of his jean back pocket to show me the new post on the SaintWear instagram account.

"Holy shit, how did they edit and post it so quickly? I took those photos about an hour ago." I question as I gaze at the post with astonishment. SaintWear really does work quickly, and somehow seeing myself on the account will always be something that makes me feel excited each and every time. Despite this being my job now, I can't fathom how that's really me on their page, it also makes me a little flustered to see myself in this light. I had to push myself out of my comfort zone to wear this outfit unbuttoned and with nothing under, but seeing the finish product makes me so proud.
