The Taxi Driver

Chapter 23

"Sean? What are you doing here?" She asked. He smiled nervously. "I came to..uh...check on you.You seem to be doing fine. Your father seemed worried for nothing." He played off. "Yeah I guess. How did you find me?" She asked raising her eyebrow. "Your dad gave me this address." He lied. "Did he really? I'm gonna have to have a word with him." She said through her teeth mumbling to herself. He chuckled. "No need. He was just worried. I mean you are in a house...all by yourself.....with a guy..you know." He said. She nodded keeping up with him. "So? Its not like we were gonna do anything anyway." She laughed.

"Is that so?" He asked. "Yeah. This past week I haven't even seen him as much. He's always giving people rides. I mean he does work with taxi services. And I have been busy with school. Which by the way dad signed me up for courses that I have never even heard of!" She laughed. "He chuckled. "Really?" He asked. "Yeah. And to top it off, each of them have different departments and it kinda kills because its a lot of work. And exercise. Like when have I tried to work out? I mean its good and all but seriously when?"She asked. He laughed. "You look pretty good for someone who doesn't work out though." He said.

She blushed."Thanks.So would you like some water or are you on your way out because I was on my way to--". She was cut off. "Who's at the door?" He asked. She looked back and seen him standing there. "Rossy." She smiled and walked over to him. "Hey. Who is this?" He asked as they walked back over to Sean. 'Woah.' He thought to himself. "Ross. This is Sean. Sean this is Ross." She introduced them. He looked at him as if studying his face. "Sean." He said holding out his hand for him to shake. "Ross." He said and shook his hand.

"How do you know each other?" He asked her. "Oh Sean lives at the mansion. He works with his uncle at one of dad's cooperations." She smiled. He raised an eyebrow. "You live together?" He asked. "Yeah. But we bearly see one another." Sean cut in. He eyed him for a moment. "Well I'm glad that your fine but I got to get going. And Laur, stay in school." He teased. She laughed and pushed his shoulder. Ross stood there and watched them. 'So much for bearly seeing each other'. He thought. "I will. And tell daddy I will call him as soon as possible." She said. He nodded and waved. "See you around Ross." He said and left. She smiled.

She turned around to a confused looking Ross. She smirked. "You okay?" She asked him. "I thought you bearly saw each other." He said. She eyed him. "Aww. Baby. There is nothing between us. I promise you. He is just a good friend of my dad's. That's it. No need to worry." She said kissing his cheek. "I'm not worried. Its just he seems a little off. Don't you think?" He asked. "How s" She asked. "Well first he--" She cut him off. "He's fine. Now is my bath ready?" She asked. He shook his head and nodded. "Yes. I'm sure its cold right about now." He said. "Then heat it up.It wouldn't be a hot bath if its cold." She said like it was the most obvious thing ever. He rolled his eyes.

"Sure princess Laura. Why don't I go make sure it is nice and hot for you?" He smirked. She looked at him. "Uh...Maybe I should go do it myself?" She asked. "That would be the best idea."He said. She rolled her eyes. "Your just jealous." She said. "Of what?" He asked. "Of me. I mean look at you." She said. He laughed. "I'm bout sexy as hell. Ask anybody who knows me. Amd especially you can ask all the woman. They'll tell you." He smirked. She stiffened. "What?" She asked. "Oh yeah? Who's the jealous one now?" He asked. She rolled her eyes. "Still you." She said and walked away.

'Something seems really off about that Sean guy. How can he just suddenly show up at me house? Without any information on me? Or maybe he does have some one me. Maybe he's the guy Mandi is sending to make sure I do exactly what she asked of me. Which NO way in hell am I doing that. But how come Laura didn't see anything unusual about him unless she knows that--' His trail of thought was intruppted by a flick to the forehead. He looked up and blinked a couple of times before his vision returned to normal.

"You have been spaced out for a while.You okay?" She asked him. "Yeah. I'm fine. You know me. Just curious." He said. She smiled. "Look if your still on the Sean thing, I say you should let it go and focus on our wedding. I want a cermony but at the same time I don't." She said. "Then what do you want?" He asked her. She picked up a dress from her closet. "You see this?" She asked. "Of course. I'm not blind." He chuckled. She giggled. "This was my mother's." She said holding it up and hugging it. "So you want to hug your dress during our cermony?" He asked a bit confused.

"What? No. I want to wear it. The thing abou the cermony is that it will be public. I just want it to be asecret. Then we can get the ritual done and sign our papers." She smiled. "Okay. Woah. Breathe." He chuckled. She put the dress down and stradled his lap. She giggled. "I'm not asking for too much am I?" She asked. "Not at all. We just have to think this through. Then after it will be all up to us." He smiled. "Your gonna wear a tux for me right?" She asked. "Uh..No." He said pecking her lips and backing off. "What? Why?" She asked. "Because I don't do well with those. I mean I'm gorgeous. Why would I want to put my products in that package?" He asked. "Because you know this one here would buy it for triple the amount its worth."She said. He smirked. "Your good." He said. "I'm fucking fantastic baby. Don't ever confuse it." She whispered and got off his lap walking towards the dress. He got up following her.
