The Eradicater: Riptide[COMPLETED]

you want my bestfriend?

It's been a couple of days since that sexy encounter. It's been okay as always, Rhea practically lives here now. Her companies have been demanding more of her lately, meaning there has been coming home late and leaving early.

With all that she still gives me my morning and Night kisses. Makes breakfast for me before she leaves or sends my driver to pick me up at lunch so we can eat together as usual.

Yesterday she left for Italy, if I said I didn't wish to tag along would be a lie. She did say it was just business, I didn't want to be bored anyway.

My upcoming business has also been coming up right. Sonya found me a building only 45 minutes away from me. It's a great spot and it's amazing inside as well. It used to be an apartment complex. So it still has three rooms apartments. About fifteen of them and a huge first floor that was used for the reception area.

So everything is working very well, the rooms still have their bathrooms in good conditions, meaningless work for me.

The only work going on is the remodeling, painting and restructuring. I want this done as soon as possible. I wouldn't want to be working hastily next year.

I had just woken up, washed and wore sweats since I had nowhere to go today. One of my boring days. I'd usually go check on my businesses but I've been having fun being a lazy girlfriend.

I know now that I have friends but my friends are CEO'S and are maybe busy but...

Pringles, marshmallows, sour candy, chocolate cake, pizza and raisins.

He liked my Message and I started making cocktails. Ever since I've met him I know he likes cocktails, pretty strong ones. Likes chocolate like me, likes sour candy like Dad and I, plus he likes pizza like mom and me.

He's also a whiskey freak like Dad and Rhea, he has brown eyes like my mother. Sometimes I'd wished he was my brother. He's protective, funny, nice and very handsome.

After thirty minutes of waiting he finally pulled up.

"Baby sis" he said hugging me, this man is so damn handsome.

"You look good" he had on ripped jeans, a hoodie and a Jean jacket. All black as usual. With Air Reigns, those sneakers look so damn good.

I helped him unpack and we sat down watching some shows till we got bored and decided to talk.

"Where did you grow up" I asked him taking a sip of my home made milkshake. That isn't much, just ice cream and blueberries mixed and with some ice.

"I grew up in a foster house, we were about fifteen there. I never asked how I got there but I knew my parents were either dead or left me or even couldn't raise me either for my own good or for selfish reasons. I didn't think of it much but it did eat me out. I got adopted by a family, a very good one. I always behaved, even though I'd go out and break a lot of rules that were there. I needed my real parents but I knew I wouldn't get them. That's how I met Rhea, we lived in the same street. I got in the foster house when I was four, got adopted when I was eight. Life there was hard, really hard. When I met Rhea I got close with her family and they also raised me as their own. Especially her father, when we were eighteen we already knew more than we should've about business. Things happened. Rhea got her father's businesses when he died, I got some as well. I did go to Uni, I have a business degree. So does Rhea. That's me"

I didn't know what to say or do. I just hugged him tight, so tight.

"It's okay Liv, I'm okay now" he hugged me back.

"I didn't know you went through that, I'm sorry Leo. I really am" I kissed his cheek and finally let go.

"So tell me about you Livy girl, what's your story"

"The isn't much to me honestly. I'm a regular rich kid, raised in a rich kid manner. I won't lie and say I met problems that were too much, I always had mom and dad. I didn't go to college, I just wanted to do what I loved and got on my feet. Mom and Dad bought me the businesses. But we've gone through some stuff, I lost my bigger brother when he was three. I wasn't born in the time but losing him hit hard even though I never knew him. My mom suffered so much, Dad tried to pull through but it was hard for him too. But when they healed, they had me. Since then they've been protecting me like a cracked egg. I feel like they fear losing me, I don't think they would recover. So yeah, there's nothing tragic about me. I'm not a snob though"

He chuckled and held my hand.

"I'm here now, I'm your new big brother. Everyday and any day, I'm here for you baby sis. I'm glad we talked and even a stupid person can tell you're not a snob and I love that about you"

I felt so closer to him after the talk. Like we were meant to talk about it and know each other. It's a talk I've never had before even with Rhea. She's closed off and I let her be.

It's like everything moved too fast with her and we didn't know much about each other and that pissed me off somehow. But I know if she wanted me to know. She would tell me, so she doesn't.

We stayed and had fun till Rhea came back from work, then Leon decided to go. He had to catch up on work she missed when he was here.

"Why did you call Leon if you were lonely and not me? Or even come to my office like used to?" Rhea asked accusing and I stayed calm.

"You were busy and I've never had intimate time with him. Plus he's fun"

"Intimate? Intimate? You could've called Bianca or Sonya like usual but no you wanted a man to come over your house and be intimate. Eat as much junk like we used to"

"I don't know what pisses you off and quite frankly you're overreacting. And stop yelling" she started pacing up and down the room.

"Do you want him?"

"Say that again?" I'm sure I hears wrong, really wrong.

"You're attracted to him aren't you? I'm your first ever relationship and I'm sure you don't know your sexuality. Oh fuck I Introduced you to a person you're attracted to. I thought Sonya was a problem but no my best friend was" I got to angry that I slapped her right across the face and my hand hurt but I didn't care.

"I said don't yell, secondly I'm not attracted to him he's a brother to me. Thirdly, I don't care what my sexuality is but I don't want Leon that way. I wish I was, he's much better than you. He asks about my past, talks about his. I've been to his place, he cares about me so damn much. He doesn't accuse me of bullshit. He listens to me, doesn't hide unnecessary shit from me. Get the fuck out of my house before I get too pissed and trust me you don't want that"

My voice was calm, I wasn't yelling but I'm sure each word I said was digging deep in her.

"He's better than me? You really want him? Fine take him"

"God I want to smash your head in-between bricks right now. But we both know only once of us is capable of killing and act like nothing happened. I might as well want him, I'm not disgusting I don't want sexual relationships with people I regard as siblings. Lastly, if I found a man attractive that would be your other bestfriend Damien. That's the guy I find attractive, not Leon. But go fuck yourself. Don't you ever come here again"

As I kept talking I pushed her out the door till she was out and I locked my self in. So damn defeated.
