It will always be you and I.

Chapter 33

Eileen's POV

It's been two months since we graduated and moved back home in Manhattan and I'm still living with my parents since I haven't got enough money to get my own place since the job I got doesn't pay me enough and also I've been working for only one month.

Micah and Trevor had to go to Italy for two weeks right after we left Jamaica and he told me it was for some business his dad had assigned them and I chose not to ask because I don't really want to be worrying about him all the time since he chose to take over his dad's business that came with an underground business that involves some things that aren't legal to me but to Micah, they are legal.

Since we came back for the trip, Micah has been telling me to move in with him but I'm not ready for that yet, I want us to first figure out ourselves but we're still together just not living together.

"Morning dad." I address him while walking into the kitchen with my work clothes on.

"Morning sweetheart, coffee?" He asks but I decline and grab an apple.

"I'm late, I'll see you later." I walk out of the kitchen but he stops me.

"Have you talked to your mother?" He asks but I pretend not to hear him so I head out and find Micah waiting for me dressed in a full grey suit with a white dress shirt without a tie.

"You look beautiful." He says referring to the official pants I have on and a green silk shirt.

"Thank you, you look smart and handsome." I walk to him and kiss him.

"Ready?" He asks while opening the door for me and I nod my head. "Have you had breakfast?"

"I'm having this apple." I tell him and he shakes his head disappointedly then gets into the car and drives off.

"Looks like I'm goin' to have to feed you." He puts his hand on my thigh as he drives. I make a mental note to get more birth control pills during my next check up because I'm tired of these after pills I keep popping.

We get breakfast which Micah forces me to eat before I head in for work.
"I love you." He kisses making me blush.

"I love you. I'll see you in the evening?" I ask him as I run my fingers through his hair trying to make it neat.

"I'll pick you up from work." He says while looking out . "Why don't you just come and work for me?"

"We've been over this Micah."

"I know, you don't want to have me giving you favors at work." He sighs while running his hand down his face. "They're treating you well? No lingering eyes?" He asks making me laugh.

"Since when do you say 'lingering'?"

"Since I dated a woman who is a literature enthusiast and editor."

"I'm not an editor."

"Not yet." He says while twisting the ring on his pointing finger. "Is that nigga still working there?"

"Micah...."

"I know baby but I just can't trust him."

"Why? He's just a friend." I tell him and he sighs. "You're goin' to be late and so am i, I'll see you later." He says while starting up the car and I notice the change in his mood so I just kiss his cheek and head out then he drives off after I get into the building.

"Damn, you should be the CEO." Jabari says while coming to me as I get to my section.

"Good morning to you too Bari." I tell him and he waves me off.
It was a coincidence that I found Jabari working at the publishing company I had applied to. So when I hit the job, it was nice having someone guide me through but I told Micah about it and he flipped, he wanted me to decline the job offer but I couldn't. I love my man and respect him but I can't have him control who I talk to and whom I work with.
