UNDERCOVER {Competed} 😌

chapter 2(i)

Joshua.
"Smarter than horses?" I asked certainly aware that my ex girlfriend wouldn't be interested in a pet. "I can only hope you are" I added absently.
She let out an annoyed sound and wriggled on on the obviously over sized chair,trying to lever herself out. I leaned forward. I am getting out of here. This wouldn't work,I thought ...she had made me think of her...look at her. She was so cute like like like what? A kitten? Ow...and so tiny tiny like those fairies. Tiny and cute like Tinkerbell but she was definitely not sugar and honey. She was hot! Hot like pepper both with the looks and the temper and I was not accustomed to this. I had asked Joe, for somebody quite. Somebody who would keep to herself when I was doing my work. This black- haired ant was dangerous. She would tag along, ask questions and even learn about my second name. And before i knew it his cover would be blown.
"Uh,huh Joe can we talk for a minute?" I said.
"Go ahead Joe,"she told him as she folded her arms across her chest..." When you get back please have in mind who my partner will be coz I don't want this one.
" That's the first thing I have heard you say in my favor Tinkerbell. I don't want you as a partner either"
Joe didn't move. And after a nearly minute we both looked at him expectantly.
" sorry darlings. The combination that you two are asking for is in short supply. What you see is what you get."
Mercy and I groaned and after a heavy pause our eyes met..
" so what do you think?" Only my love for shakers magazine made me ask that question.
" I guess we have no choice.
" okay guys start packing as from this moment you two are newlyweds and you are employed at Jim's ranch. A car will be here to pick you up at exactly 1. Don't be late," Joe said flatly
"One more thing," he added," shop for wedding rings

I looked at her and ...why is she so sad...is she warring with some nearly forgotten dream? Gosh why am I even bothering my head off... When the first time I met her all she did was to piss me off.
"Mercy meet me at the jewel story down town," I said and walked off thinking.... I'll buy her a big ring that would be sweet revenge.

I was tapping my foot to get myself calm. How dare he call me Tinkerbell. He obviously had no manners. He is such a nerd and a rotten piece of refuse, a toad...a ah...wait...was I exaggerating a little? I can't believe I was thinking about him. ...In the back of my mind I knew he didn't quality for jerkdom, but the look he gave me made me certain that he had never seen a very short girl.
And when we agreed to be married for the job's sake,I couldn't help but think I was doing it all wrong. But I didn't want to react in case he thought I was immature. Since when did I start thinking about what anyone think about me? Shit bit I did.
Joe said we shop for the wedding rings. I felt sad and remembered to the one time I was engaged to Edwin....in the end I had broken it off. He expected too much.
