Pleasure Over Business

Chapter 2

"Aaliyah! Aaliyah! WAKE UP! It's time to get up!" Colette screams, bursting into my room.  

I sat up and looking over to see the clock reading 9:00 in the morning. I want to duck tape her to a chair, but I restrain myself. I could tell she had a rough awakening. She had red whine all over her peach shirt. I really hoped she didn't get it on my couch!

"Colette! What the hell do I look like waking up at 9:00am in the morning! I will throw you out!"  

Her Carmel skin then turns red. It's funny because whenever she's embarrassed she starts playing with her long dark brown hair; which is what she's doing right now.

"Fine! I will let you sleep. Sheesh!"  

She then storms out. I go back to sleep then wake up again at around at 12:00. I jump out of bed in a blink of an eye. Walking around my room to get to the other side felt like a mile! I opened the curtains to feel of the sun kissing down at my face. 

I went in the shower and I got out around 12:15. I was surprised to not hear Colette's big mouth singing to the top of her lungs. I made up my bed and got dressed. I wore a long green and white dress with Baige heels and put on my sunglasses, I'm so happy my hair was still curly from yesterday so I could wear it like this today.  

When I passed the living room and saw Colette in a deep sleep on my coach, I wondered if she knew I have at least two other bedrooms. I left her a note on my counter and walked out to my car.  

Before I drove off, I pulled out the card Christian gave me and dialed it.  

"Hello?" A deep and warm masculine voice that I'd recognize anywhere answered the phone.

Omg! Ok stay cool!  

"Hi Mr.Grey, I called to let you know I am on my way." I couldn't help, but smile.  

"Oh ok good, so am I. See you there." He hung up.  

I couldn't stop shaking. I don't know what is, I've never felt this way about a guy before, ever since the incident. He's probably not even interested, he might have a wife or girlfriend.  

As I approached Pana, I see hardly any cars in the parking lot, but a few.

I walked in to see Christian sitting at a single table with tea and a crescent in the back. He looked up at me with a smile and a twinkle in his eye. He had on a blue and white stripped buttoned up shirt with black dress pants. I stopped staring and walked over.

"Hello Mr.Grey." I said as I sat down across from him.  

"Hello Ms.Phillips, would you like anything?"  

"Yes please, a crum cake and camomile tea with two spoons of sugar, please."  

That was weird and unexpected. I don't usually let people do things for me. He smiled with a satisfied look on his face and got up to get my order. He came back within minutes.  

"Enjoy." He smiled.  

When I started eating, all I saw was him looking into my eyes and smiling. When I finished we began to talk business, but things got a little personal.

"What kind of house would you and your wife want?" I said with a hint of jealously in my voice.

I didn't want to ask, but I needed to know. He raised his eyebrow and smiled.  

"Well, to tell you the truth I don't have a wife or girlfriend."  

He gave me a seductive smile. That turned me on causing me to squirm.  

"Can I tell you another secret?" His grey eyes got hot and there was that sexy smile.  

"Sure, go ahead." I'm scared!  

"I don't really want to buy a house. I've been seeing you a lot on commercials and newspapers, and I knew I had to meet you in person. I thought you were really beautiful."  

 I smile brighter than the sun on a summers day. 

"I knew about you too, but I didn't think that you would be interested because... you're you."  

His eyes got soft and his face got serious.  

"Don't say that. You're beautiful. I just can't believe someone didn't claim you as yet." 

I couldn't help, but smile. He had a way of doing things to me that I haven't felt in a long time. He made me-

"Would you like to go for a walk?"  He said interrupting my thoughts.  

"I would love to." 

Thank goodness there was a park seven blocks from here. As we walked, I told him about how I got to where I was and why I do it. He looked at me with fascination with every word that came out my mouth; I like that.  

We then came along a bench, near the lake. The sun started to set and it reflected off the lake. It's simply gorgeous. We sat down, picking up rocks from the side and began making ripples in the water.

"Aaliyah, you are really beautiful. I want you to own up to that and I hope no one tells you different. Any man would be lucky to have you." I gaze down into the water for a bit before turning to meet his gaze.

"Thank you." I said softly.

I looked down at my fingers as a tear fell from my eye down to my cheek. He reached out his hand to wipe it away, smiling. I looked up.  

Then all I could see are his pink soft lips. He then started coming closer. His left hand on my thigh and his right hand on my neck. He bent my head back; he was capable of doing anything. He kissed my neck, then my jawline, and stopped; hovering over my lips. He brushed his lips on mine then crashed our lips together. I moaned in his mouth as he moaned in mine. His left arm then came to my side and I was suddenly on his lap. He then pulled away and we were left gazing into each others eyes with heat and passion. He knew what I wanted and I could tell he wanted the same.  

His look then changed into something serious and a hint of guilt.

"Umm...I have to go. I will talk to you tomorrow. Let me see your phone so I could put my number in."  

"Umm ok."

What just happened? 

He walked me back to my grey infiniti in silence.  

"Thank you." He said with disappointment overflowing in his eyes. He walked back to his car and before he drove off he glanced at me.

What did I do!?!
