—————

Fire and Water. A breeze of air. The silence before the storm.

"Look I said I'm sorry. I was just bored so curiosity won me over." I said.
He tightened the rope and stood in front of me. Yes, you heard me correctly. He tied me to a chair. Extremely tightly.

"I will ask you one more time and you will answer me with the truth this time." He said.
"I am telling the truth. Why else should I be in your room?" I said getting irritated.
"Maybe you're hiding something. Your friend kept asking questions in the bar. Who are you people?" he asked coming closer.

I'm going to kill Tom. He was supposed to keep a low profile.

"I am Riley-"
"Don't give me bullshit! Tell the truth." He cut me off.
"Oh My! I promise I'm telling the truth! I was just doing simple snooping because I was bored." I said for the hundredth time.

"And you expect me to believe that?" He whispered his breath hitting my face. When did he get so close? And why does he smell so good? DAPHNE STOP!
"That's up to you to believe or not. I'm telling the truth."

He let out a frustrated breath. His breath smell is a mixture of mint, whiskey, and cigarette. My eyes travelled to his lips for a second. Looks soft, warm, and soft.

"Focus on my eyes." He whispered.

I snapped out of my thoughts and looked at his eyes. Blue. Right now, his eyes look like the deepest part of the ocean. Dark blue. Because he's mad. Why was he mad again? I swallowed hard.

"Why my room?" he asked slowly.
"Because you're like a closed book. You're mysterious. So, I came to your room." At this point, I have no idea if it was Riley talking or Daphne. It's like he has hypnotized me. Focus Daphne. Don't blow your cover. I shook my head coming out of my trance.
I had to say something to convince him that I meant no harm. I sighed.

"I just ... wanted to know who you really are. Because, well ... you act like you hate me,"
"I do hate you." He said casually.
Rude.
"There. You hate me. And then you come and save me from a random creepy dude. Why?"
"Because you practically begged me to come and save you."
I was shaking in anger. This motherfucker.

"You asshole." I said.
He shrugged and stepped back.
"Are you going to untie me or what?" I snapped at him.
"No."
"No?!"
"You really need to get your ears checked." He said walking behind his desk and pouring himself a drink and sat down.

"For fucks sake! I learned my lesson not to snoop around. Especially your room. I will not cross you as you said. I won't even walk in your path." I said frustrated.

He hummed and took a sip of his drink staring at me. Is he for real?
"How long are you planning to stare at me?" I snapped.
He took another sip remaining silent. I bit my lips preventing not so nice words from flying out. He took a cigarette out of the pack.

"You smoke?" he asked.
"No." I gave him a confused look. What is he doing?
"You look like a girl who smokes."
"And that's why you shouldn't judge a book by its cover." I said.
He nodded and inhaled some smoke.

"Your friend. He smokes?"
"No. What are you doing?"
"Drinking and smoking."
"Well, can't you do that after you untie me?"
He tsked and took another sip of his drink. I rolled my eyes and looked away from him.
We stayed in silence until he finished his drink and cigarette. He walked towards me again and crouched down.
