It's been one long frustrating week. I've been so busy with work I haven't had any free time. The office has been filled with so many clients since Cali came. It's like she's bringing us extra good luck. I haven't seen Cali for the whole week though.
As much as I want to just pull her into my office and kiss the mess out of her I know I can't. She's made it clear that she wants me to behave and I like to tease. Therefore I know this week has been driving her insane. I cross my arms and place both my feet on top of my desk. I'm finally done with this entire load of paperwork. What should I do in my free time. I really need a drink down at the bar tonight.
I pull out my phone and see two notifications from Cali.
Cali:It's been a whole week Owen. I'm confused as why you haven't been holding up on your end of our little arrangement. I have needs too.
I smirk down at my phone.
Me: Well it's not on purpose. I've been a little caught up.
Cali:Am I coming to your place tonight or not?
Me: You've never been to my place before.
Cali: Well now would be a good time to show me around.
Me:Can't I'm going out tonight.
Cali:What the fuck do you mean going out!
Me: For a drink. Probably with my brother Aiden so you can't come.
Cali: You're playing Owen and I don't like that.
Me:Guess you'll have to wait one more day.
I exit out of our messages and text Aiden.
Me:Drinks tonight?
Aiden:Yeah actually perfect timing. Eve's mom came out for the weekend so I'm free.
Me:Perfect.
Aiden: Have you heard from Selene?
Me: Nah, but I hear she's flying back out here in a couple of months. She just posted on instagram so I'm sure she's fine.
Aiden: She's always ignoring her family. Would a text back hurt.
I laugh at Aidens message before putting my phone back in my pocket.
Someone knocks at my door and I sit up putting my legs onto the floor. "Come in." I say.
Cali walks in and my breath is taken away. Her blonde curls are more curly today and her outfit is sexy as fuck. I almost groan.
She bites her bottom lip. "Owen I haven't seen you in a week." She closes the door behind her and locks it.
"I've been...busy." I place my hand on my chin as my eyes roam over her body.
"Okay. Well instead of going out tonight maybe you should spend the night with me." She crosses her arms.
"Not going to happen Cali. I need to behave myself remember." I raise a brow.
She sighs. "That was a one time thing. Plus we were at work."
"Well right now you're in my office. The most riskiest place to be."
She runs a hand through her hair and looks around. "You're right. I just wanted to see you, but maybe I should leave."
She reaches for the nob. "Cali. Come to my place later tonight."
I see her smile as she walks out of the office.

Aiden sets his glass of whiskey onto the bar. "And you know having one kid is hard, but now I'm going to have two."
Since we got to the bar Aiden has been telling me about how Eve is pregnant again. He's happy although he wanted to wait until one baby grew up to have another. He doesn't want to have too many babies running around the same age.
"Well you're doing good with one. What's one more right." I say gulping back my drink.
"Yeah. I'm really excited. I always imagined having at least 3. I just didn't think it would take so much time away. I like being with my wife and in my wife." He sighs.
"Okay. I don't want to hear about your sex life." He raises a brow.
"You've always been the settling down and having 5 different babies running around type. Have you found anyone you want to with yet?" Aiden asks.
I lower my eyes as Cali pops into my mind. I am the settling down type. I've never been into one night stands. I'm always dating a woman and dating that woman to marry. I've only been with 5 woman my whole life. Cali now being the sixth.
She's gorgeous. Something about her makes me keep going back. Even though I know she doesn't want anything serious I can't help but not care about that as long as I can have her. Even if it is for one night out of each week. How long can I keep lying to myself though. I want to find my one and get married. If Cali never wants that one day we're going to have to end this.
"No I haven't." I take another shot of my drink.
"Well it's okay. I'm sure you'll find someone soon. You're a good guy who any woman would be dumb enough to pass by." He pats me on my back.
"I'm not looking for a woman right now brother. If I happen to run into someone that's fine." I roll my eyes.
"How bout that one over there?" Aiden points to a brunette woman looking at me from across the bar.
I shake my head. "I told you I'm not looking for anyone." I warn.
He raises both his hands. "Okay okay. Don't get so defensive."
"Since you don't want to talk then just listen to me."
He continues on about how Eve's parents are here for the weekend so their going out to spend a lot of time with each other. I love how my older brother found the person for him.
