Chapter 1: The Announcement

"Katy! Katy, honey, wake up," I heard my dad yell, pulling me out of my slumber in the process. I lazily dragged my body out of the bed while trying to adjust to standing up. Pulling down the huge shirt I slept in, I walked into the sitting room where my father was.

"Good morning, dad. Is something wrong? Are we going somewhere?" I asked.

"Actually, my dear, we are going somewhere and I'd like for you to meet someone important," my dad spoke when a tall, tanned man walked in through the foyer.

At that exact moment, my mind would not function like it usually did. Heck, it stopped functioning all at once. I honestly could not understand what was happening. Everything around me had seemed to vanish and all I could see, smell and sense, was the man. He was absolutely breath-taking.

But with me being a sixteen year old, dark-skinned, chubby girl, and him being a tall, handsome (handsome is actually an understatement), white man; I had to get myself in control. 'He wouldn't even see you that way,' my mind told me. And I knew it was right. The clearing of someone's throat brought me back to reality as I looked back at my dad.

"So, Katy, this is Mr Silverstone. He is going to be investing in the business but we are first going on a trip to check out some works of the business before he invests in anything. And because it is just you and I this summer, you are coming with me, Justin and a few other shareholders of the business," he finished.

"Oh," was all I could get out.

"Aren't you excited to finally get out of the house? We're leaving for South Africa today!" he exclaimed.

"South Africa? Really, daddy? You're not kidding?" I asked excitedly. he just shook his head smiling and I jumped at him, giving him a huge hug.

What you may not know is that I was actually born and raised in South Africa. We moved to the US when I was fourteen due to my father's business growth.

When I pulled away from the hug, I saw Mr Silverstone looking kind of awkward. "Oh, I'm sorry about that, Mr Silverstone. It's nice to meet you," I stuck out my hand for him to shake.

When he did, I felt some type of electricity flowing between the both of us. 'I am going insane' I thought to myself. He then pulled away abruptly, making me question if what happened was really true. Mr Silverstone followed by clearing his throat and saying, "It's uhm... It's nice to meet you too, Katy."

And with that, I walked out the room to pack and get ready, smiling like a mad woman.

Justin POV

"Justin. Justin, man!" I heard Mr Smith shout.

"What?" I said, annoyed.

"I've been talking to you for the past few minutes and you've been zoned out. What is it that you're thinking about so much?" he asked.

"Nothing, Kevin. I don't have to discuss my personal business with you." He rolled his eyes after I said that, leaning back. "Where can I get the bathroom?" I inquired.

"The second last door on the right," he answered. I thanked him before jumping from the seat.

My mind was running wild. I could not believe that I had found HER. The one. My one. My mate. From when I arrived at this place, my heart was beating at an incredibly high rate. I could not identify what the problem was but now I know. She had a blissful smell of natural sweetness. Her beauty was extraordinary and her body in that oversized t-shirt just sent chills up my spine. I had been waiting my whole twenty-nine year old life to finally meet her and I have to say; it was absolutely worth it.

When my head came to its senses I remembered that Kevin had told me that her daughter was only sixteen years of age. I'm twenty-nine, for goodness sakes.

How is she going to take that?

She probably doesn't even see me like that. But the way her eyes held onto me earlier told me that maybe she might consider me.

That moment had been the moment I've dreamt about and more. I ran my hands through my hair in utter frustration.

As I looked at myself in the mirror, trying to figure out what to do, the door flew open revealing the dark-skinned beauty. I watched as her eyes flew wide open and her hands grabbed the tiny towel wrapped around her amazing body.

"Uhm... Uhm... I'll uhh g-go to the other bathr-" she didn't even finish what she was saying as she stormed out the room, stuttering. I couldn't help but chuckle adoringly at her cute she looked when she was embarrassed.
I walked out of the bathroom feeling slightly better after seeing her.

Katy POV

I walked into the sitting room saying, "Dad, I'm done packing. Can I have the keys so I can-" I immediately froze when I looked up and saw that my dad was nowhere and sitting on the couch was Mr Silverstone.

I was, honestly, still embarrassed about the bathroom incident and I did not really want to face him yet. "Oh. Uhhm where is my dad?" I tried to ask politely.

He looked up from his phone and spoke, "He went to buy some supplies for the road. We will be travelling to my private jet in New York so he thought the ride to there would be a road trip. And he went to go get the other guys we're travelling with." I just nodded and turned. Before I could leave, a hand gently pulled on my wrist, stopping me.

"He asked me to watch you. Said he won't be back 'till 12. It's 10 now, you want to go get some breakfast? If you're still embarrassed about what happened earlier, I'm really sorry. This date would be me trying to make up for that."

My head turned, shocked, at the mention of the word 'date'.

"Date?" I asked.

"Did I say date? I meant- Oh, who am I kidding. Yes, Katy, I said date. Will you go on a date with me?"

A/N: Hey guys. I actually don't really know what I'm doing over here so if you could read and maybe help me find ways to improve, then that would be awesome. And if you think that it's kind of inappropriate or anything like that, I'm truly sorry. Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoyed it.

Oh, and that is a picture of Justin Silverstone up there.
