Chapter 4: A happy CoupleHarley POV
The make out session in his office still left me breathless. I've never felt this hot and turned on in my whole life. He tasted like heaven and hell combined. His body pressed against mine had felt like sin but still oh so good.
His fingers on my body hat left me wanting more. Everything about him clouded my mind. I was so turned on I almost ripped his black shirt of. Something very unusual for me.
Now we were sitting in his car driving to the house. He had the roof pulled back to give us some air. My hair was flying around everywhere but it was the best feeling in the world.
Watching Richard drive through the city made me feel unusually safe and calm. I felt like nothing could hurt me as long as he was right next to me. Every now and then he would look over to me smile or caress my knee.
We arrived at the house with the estate agent already waiting outside.
The house was located beautifully. Richard got out of the car first and fastly walked around to open the door for me and help me out. Such a gentleman. I straightened my hair real quick and then took the hand he offered me. It felt good. The man greeted us more than warm heartedly.
He showed us around the 4 bedroom house. It had a huge master bedroom with a giant bathroom and a walk in closet. A big kitchen and even a pool outside. Everything was restored to new standards. And I would have enough room to put up an office/ shooting room for my blog and YouTube Channel.
The basement was built to hold 2 more rooms that could be turned into offices or guest rooms if needed.
The living room was big and bright. Everything was just perfect.
"So do the two of you look to move in here together."
"No. My friend is looking for a house herself."
"I see." He noted something.
"And may I ask how you can afford this."
"I got some money when my parents passed away."
"Oh ok." Again he noted something. "Do you have any securements for me?"
"Yes." I handed him a folder with all the needed information. A letter from my bank about my financial status, my work contract.
"This all looks very good. Are you interested?"
"Well..." Richard squeezed my hand.
"Actually I'm a little worried about a few parts."
"And what may that be sir?"
"Well for one the security system is missing. Let's be honest: she needs one. And there are still a few repairs to do. The steps down to the basement have to be renewed and the air conditioning is not working properly."
"So what do you suggest."
"How much are you asking?"
"The owner is asking for $360,000"
In tried to keep my calm. It wasn't like I couldn't afford it. Selling my parents' house had brought me more than enough and from what they left me I could pay more than enough repairs."
"Ok. How about you make the owner an offer: If he repairs everything in the house he will get the full price. But we both know that he will have to invest way more. OR he gets $300,00 and we will repair everything on our own."
"Sir that's..."
"ask him."
"Ok. Wait a minute please." The man walked away and pulled his phone out.
We walked outside and I looked up the sky. The sun was shining bright and warm. This house would be perfect. When I looked over to Richard I saw him staring at me.
"You really are beautiful" he said moving closer to me.
"Uhm thank you?" I said awkwardly.
He chuckled and took my hand giving it a quick kiss before pulling me into a hug and pressing a soft kiss to my lips. I leaned into him enjoying the feeling of him so close to me.
A cough interrupted us. We pulled apart and look at the real estate agent.
"So I have good news for you. The owner accepted."
I squealed and hugged Richard. "Thank you."
They both smiled at me.
"I will make everything ready and ask you to come into my office on Monday to sign the papers. Is that alright?"
I hesitated a bit. Monday I had to work again. And Sue would certainly keep me busy.
"We will be there." Richard said.
We said our goodbyes and drove off. "Why did you hesitate?"
"Well Monday I have to work again. And Sue will probably keep me busy." I said looking away.
"Listen if you want to I can talk to her."
"No its ok. I'll write her later and tell her I bought the house and will be leaving earlier on Monday." I smiled.
"What do you say we go and get something to eat?" he offered.
"Don't you have to get back to work?"
"I'm the boss. I decide when I work." He smirked, got out his phone and wrote a quick message.
We drove to a small Italian restaurant and got something to eat. I ordered a big Lasagna while Richard ordered Steak and fries. All manly that he was.
"So what else do you want to do today?" he asked.
"Well I'm not really sure. I actually planned on getting to know the area and do some shopping maybe."
"Well that's sounds fun. Do you mind if I keep you company?" he smirked.
Thank you for reading my story :* I'm happy for any suggestions and comments. Let me know what you think.
"Not at all" I smiled back at him.
