Michael was confusing me.
I wasn't sure how he saw me but I knew I didn't like Michael in that way. Everything about me and him was different compared to each other.
Sure we were both grumpy assholes but he was more violent than me and I preferred to stay quiet rather than act out. He was cold as ice and I was a quiet girl who wanted nothing but to sleep and study.
We were too different.
So how could he possibly want to like me? I picked up he was jealous that another guy could have all the advantages he couldn't get but I didn't know he was jealous of the fact some other guy would have me as a real girlfriend.
He was a confusing man but it doesn't mean I dislike him, I just find him tolerable at certain times.
He sent me messages saying he'd be at the company whole night so I shouldn't make him any food.
I was revising over some work when my phone started buzzing. It was Heath calling.
"Hey Jess I wanted to call and ask if it was alright if we could get dinner sometime and discuss a few of the concepts" I didn't even realise I was smiling but that went a way quickly when I thought back about Michael's rule.
Fuck how was I going to hang out with him without Michael finding out.
"Um sure but let's have it around 9 pm alright" it was now 8:12 and Michael was going to be at the office for a long while so there's no way Michael would find out.
"That's alright with me, see you then" he hanged up and I hurried to find the most decent yet feminine outfit in my closet.
What if Michael finds out? I doubt he will. He's in the office whole night so it won't be a problem.
I threw on a silk dress that stopped by my thighs and I grabbed my white cardigan.
I left my hair lose and didn't bother with my makeup just did concealer and lipstick.
I threw my laptop and books in my tote bag and grabbed my car keys. Taking one more look at myself I nodded and headed for the door.
The drive to the restaurant was only five minutes from Michael actually so I was actually not that late.
I asked the lady in front for a boy named Heath and she kindly pointed towards the back area. Making my way towards him I found myself smiling at him like a silly girl.
He wore a silk white t-shirt with a black suite pants.
He looked good.
"Hey gorgeous how you doing?" He got out of his seat allowing me to sit in the chair he just pulled out "I'm doing great thank you for asking" he seated himself and took a sip of his water and started typing something on his laptop "I already ordered us a starter so you don't need to worry about that love" I found myself smiling again and could only nod before going back to the concepts of the task.
