Standing in your way

Chapter 14

I wake up to absolute silence. I didn't set any alarm last night, I don't know what time it is. I lean over and take the phone, it's 10 am, shit. I take the covers off myself and get out of bed, I look in the mirror and fix my hair for a moment to make myself a little presentable for her. I open the door, the corridor was empty and silent, a ray of light illuminated the passage. I leave the room and close the door behind me, I head towards the kitchen silently not knowing if Lydia was still sleeping or not

The kitchen was empty, I look around and everything was silent and extremely calm, I decide to just get a glass of water, I'm not really hungry

"Good morning" I get a little scared when I hear her voice suddenly appear behind me, I turn towards her

"Good morning" she was dressed sportily in an all-black racing outfit and high ponytail, she was probably going out to train

"You're going for a run?" I ask taking a sip of water, she looks at her watch and then raises her gaze

"I already did" she says scoffing, wow she's a morning person

"Oh okay" I still can't look her in the eyes after last night even though I'm not sure if she heard me or not. I turn and put the glass on the table, suddenly I feel a presence behind me

"Look at me" she says softly next to my ear, my heart skips a beat hearing her voice. I turn to her, afraid to do anything, we are dangerously close face to face, well more precisely i was face to face with her chest. She looks at me in an indecipherable way, motionless, my lungs stop working and I enter apnea

"What were you doing last night" she asks me, I feel my face turning red, shit, now what do I tell her? I open my mouth to speak but she immediately stops me "I warn you, I want the truth" her eyes turn even darker "I already told you last night, I had a bad dream that's all" I remain fixed on that lie, in the end it wasn't too unlikely

"We sure about that?" her voice was low, perfect for intimidating me

"I swear you" I swallow the lump that had formed in my throat, his face doesn't look convinced but she walks away anyway

"If you belive" she turns away from me and as she does I release a sigh that I've been holding for a long time. The suit fits her toned physique perfectly

"I'm going to my study, don't disturb me, when you leave leave things on the bed" she walks out of the room and leaves me alone in the kitchen. I decide it's time to go home so I go get dressed.

I'm in front of Lydia's office door, I don't know whether to knock to tell her I'm leaving or leave without saying anything. She said I shouldn't disturb her so I leave without saying goodbye, but I still want to thank her so I take a piece of paper and a pen and write "Thank you<3" on it

"Will she kill me for the little heart? Maybe" I leave the pen where I found it and leave the house, my uber is waiting for me

--------------------------------

"Hey girl" I open the door and find a frightened Sarah in front of me

"How did it go? Did she fire you?" she puts her hands on my forearms making me take a step back from the push

"Hey calm down, it went well" her face changes from worried to calm, she releases a sigh of relief

"Can you believe me if I tell you that I almost didn't sleep last night because of this?" she looks at me and starts laughing, I shake my head in disbelief

"You're crazy!" I also laugh with her as I go to the kitchen to get a bottle of wine and two glasses

"So? Tell me how you won her back" she raises her eyebrows at me playfully, as I pass I give her a push and roll my eyes

"I begged her" I put the things on the table and sit down, she does the same

"Did you fuck?"

"Sarah!" I turn my head towards her with wide eyes and before I know it my face turns red

"Oooh you're blushing!" this time she's the one who gives me a push

"Stop it" I turn my head towards the bottle of wine opening it

"Oh come why did you blush? The idea turns you on?" she comes closer to me almost whispering the last sentence

"Kinda, I mean have you seen her? Just seeing her turns me on" I pour two glasses of wine

"I agree with you, and I'm sure that sleeping at her house was a wonderful experience" I nod and we sip on the wine

"Tell me what her house looks like, I'm curious" I put the glass on the table

"It's majestic, it's a mansion with two floors and everything in there seems to scream wealth! I've never seen such a beautiful house before"

"With all the money she has! And what did you do after speaking?" I lower my gaze unsure wether to tell her what did I did or not

"Well she showed me the guest room where I sleeped, then I did a shower and" my mouth closes, I blush again at the thought

"And?" she asks me curiously

"Nothing" I cut her off and grab my glass taking a sip of wine to keep quiet

"No bitch, spit it out!" she grabs my glass from my hand, I exhale biting my lower lip

"So?"

"I masturbated" her mouth falls open covering it with one hand

"No you didn't!" she looks at me with wide eyes

"Yes I did"

"Did she heard you?" she asks seriously

"I don't know, when I finished she knocked on my door, I had my pants undone but I didn't notice, so I opened it for her and she asked me if everything was ok because she heard strange noises. I tell her I had a bad dream and she says okay, then she looks at me and says fix your pants again, so I don't know" she nods

"And this morning? Did she told you something?"

"This morning was very strange, I was in the kitchen getting a glass of water and she suddenly appears, then comes up from behind and tells me to look at her and then asks me to tell her the truth this morning was very strange, I was in the kitchen getting a glass of water and she suddenly appears, then comes up from behind and tells me to look at her and then asks me to tell her the truth" she gasps

"Oh my god, and what you did you do?"

"obviously I didn't tell her the truth, I reitrated the dream thing and that was it"

Lydia's pov

I leave my study for lunch, I go to see in the guest room if she ahs already left or not, I open the door and the room is all tidy with the bed made.

I enter the room to get the pajamas he left on the bed, while I step on something on the floor. I reach down and pick it up, it was an earring, her earring. I put it in my pocket.

This girl amazes me more and more every day, first she screams at me and then she comes to beg me to forgive her and not fire her. To be honest I really wouldn't have done it, I just wanted to scare her and make her understand that she shouldn't mess with me, now I think she's learned her lesson.

I go into the kitchen and take a plate, today I'm eating salad with spelled, a simple but complete dish. While I go to get things from the fridge I notice that there is a piece of paper on the table, I take it without paying too much attention, thinking that it was just a piece of paper but then I notice some writing. I stop and open it, it said "thank you" with a little heart, she left it for me. I smile slightly and go to my study, I go in and leave it on the desk.

I don't want to throw it away
