The Best Woman's Secret

~Getting To Know Each Other~

Dakotas POV❤️

1 Week Later

I peak through the pillow on my bed to see the sun is all the way up through the window and I groan knowing I've slept in. I sit up from bed and lean on the headboard. "God even when I don't drink, I still get the hardest headaches." I complain. I look to my right and smile seeing the asprin and water there. I take them and lay back down with one arm behind my head and one on my phone scrolling on social media and emails. I see photos of Jamie and Raven on their honeymoon. And she looks amazing in her bathing suit on the beach. It's white and it's showing off her amazingly toned mocha skin body. I find myself staring into her eyes as she smiles. It's a beautiful smile.

The door opens slightly and Mikayla's red hair peaks before I see her freckled face. "Ah you are awake. Finally!" She says and walks in completely with her laptop and phone in hand.

I groan throwing a pillow over my face. "Why can't you come in here one time and bring breakfast or atleast coffee?" I complain.

"Um because I'm your assistant not your butler or maid, make your own damn coffe or breakfast. Plus you're the cook not me." She says and I look at her bored. She shrugs and continues to show me, well tell me about all the new clients I have from returning back to New York.

"Mik I love you but can I atleast get dressed before you ruin my brain?" I ask.

She sighs. "Fine. And I will order food. I'll make sure it's here before you get done." I nod and she starts ordering food.

I hear the door bell ringing from the shower and hear Mik leave the room closing my door. Who is here? I get out after showering and not hearing her come back in my room. I curiously get dressed wondering who was at the door. I don't remember giving anyone my address yet besides Jamie. But Jamie would've told me he was coming. I shake off the unknowing feeling and get dressed. I put on a solid cream sweater, rolling it up to showcase parts of my sleeve tattoos on both arms, and black baggy jeans with white sneakers and my silver chain.

I walk out to the living room. "Yo Mik who was at the doo-" my sentence gets interrupted by the sight of Raven in a yellow cami dress and sandals, with her curly hair pinned up in a high bun, sitting on my couch, in my living room, talking to Mikayla. "Uh hey?" I say awkwardly.

She smiles. "Hi Dakota. Sorry for dropping in like this but I felt like we didn't have enough one on one time to talk before we left for our honeymoon ." She says and I nod not knowing how to feel about this.

"Uh Raven told me she asked Jamie for your address and that he couldn't make it since he's back in the office this week." Mikayla says and I nod again. Knock Knock! "Oh look, foods here. I'm going to go get it." She says and leaves.

My eyes have been stuck on the goddess in front of me sitting in my living room right now who just unfortunately happens to be my bestfriends wife. She stands and I follow her every move with my eyes. "Look, I know this might seem weird but I feel like we have a connection and I don't want to lose it." She says and her context behind that is definitely different from mine but I won't say that. I nod again. She sighs. "I'll go. I'm sorry for disturbing you or making you uncomfortable from not being here with Jamie." She says and that breaks my spell.

I grab her hand from grabbing her stuff. "Uh no stay. Please." I beg.

She freezes at my voice. "Are you sure? I didn't mean to make you feel obligated to it." She says uneasy. I look down at our hands and let go putting mine in my pockets.

I nod and smile. "No I just wasn't expecting to see you guys until the weekend. I don't think I have groceries just yet so I can't offer you anything right now." I scratch the back of my head.
