Sleep is inevitable, we all know that. No matter what you do, you'll fall asleep at some point

But right now, I couldn't even relax not to talk of sleep

Everything about today was playing repeatedly in my head

From Mr Grey's very interesting display and to Mr Martinez's....

Goddd!

What the hell?

Does he...like me?

Noooo, there's no way that Eric Martinez would like me

No way

I lie on my right side, Sophia was fast asleep

I can't just conclude that he likes me or may like me but I can conclude that there's something wrong

I can't even imagine what will happen if my speculation are actually true

God No

~°~

I was lying lazily on my couch with my phone in hand, laughing at Mr Grey's video

I have never seen something so engrossing in my life

"I want Swiss cheese!"

Nope, never in my life

"You've been on your phone for an hour now, what are you watching?" Sophia says from behind

"You wouldn't believe even if I told you" I chuckled

"Lemme seeee" she whined

Won't I be destroying Mr Grey's image if I show her?

I sit up and was about to reply when we heard a knock on the front door

"Who could it be" Sophia walks to the door and opens it

"Hi please is Courtney in?"

"Holy smokes Daniel Grey" she squeals

Well isn't this lovely

I stand to my feet

He sticks his head inside and looks at me

"Mr Grey" I pulled Sophia out of the way "please come in"

"Thanks" he walks in with a bag in hand, looking around "you have a nice house" he complemented

"Thank you so much, please have a sit" I couldn't help the smile on my face

Reason 1, it's Daniel freaking Grey!

Reason 2, *smiles inwardly* the video

"Would you like anything?" I asked

"No no, I'm good, thank you" he seemed a bit uneasy

"So, what do I owe this visit?" He looked over at Sophia and back at me

"I'll excuse you guys" she leaves

"So.."

He clears his throat "I just came to see you, well you know you hang out with my friends and I've never actually spoken to you one on one" he started

"Really?" He nods

He places the white bag he's been holding on the table

"I got you this"

Was he being serious?

I looked at his doubtfully

"Go on its yours" he said

I hesitantly picked up the bag and slowly went through it

I let out a gasp

"Oh my god. Wow"

There were some very lovely fabrics, cupcakes, cookies, lots of colourful sewing thread....

Okay you know what, I'm not listing because they're only lovely gifts to people who live for designing clothes

"I really do hope you like them " he said

I look up at him "What's it for?"

He shrugged "just a gift" he then clears his throat

"Um Courtney" he moves foward  "You know, I'm famous, a model and I'm in the eyes of the public; what happened last night was just...a um...a mistake"

He makes it sound like we slept together

Jesus Christ Courtney!

"So um...about that recording...could you please get rid of it?"

I knew it was a bribe!

"What recording?" I raised a brow

He sighs "C'mon Courtney"

"I really don't know what you're talking about " I shrugged

"The video...last night, about..." he couldn't finish it

"About..? About what.....Swiss cheese?" I couldn't help but say it

He bit his bottom lip and lowered his head a bit "yeah" it almost sounded like a whisper

He's friends must have shown him

I fold my lips in because the video came to mind

"Mr Grey..."

"Daniel, please"

I nod, God why does everyone insist I use their names

"Daniel" God that doesn't sound right "i wasn't planning on doing anything with the video, it was just for fun I promise. But I understand that it makes you uncomfortable so I'll delete it"

He looked shocked "Wait really?"

"Of course I will, you didn't even need to bribe me" I pull the bag to myself "But I'm not giving it back"

He raises his hands in defense "I wasn't planning on taking it"

I nod and put the bag down "But thank you, you're a really easy person" he added "Eric on the other hand is a moron"

I couldn't help but laugh "I can tell he loves teasing you"

"A lot" he agreed "like I said earlier, we've never spoken one on one before, so I'll take this as an opportunity"

I raised my brows "okay then"

Chatting one on one with Daniel Grey, this should be fun
