The Affair (Zauren)

Chapter 7

It's been a couple weeks since I've last spoken to Zayn we ran into each other occasionally but never acknowledged each other. But, with my luck, our boss put us on a business project together which means long nights at the office with just him. We've been working for a couple of days and gotten most of it done. The sexual tension between us was very hard to ignore.

We have been in Zayn's office all day trying to finish the project as soon as possible. The hours passed and passed by. It was getting pretty late.

"I'm so tired," I say yawning.

He looks me in the eyes his hard stare now looking at my lips. I stare into his gaze, wetting my lips letting out a soft breath.

"Fuck, Lauren I can't help myself," he says grabbing my jaw and pulling me in for a kiss it was hard yet soft, It was fiery yet passionate, It was filled with our hunger for each other.

He slips his tongue in my mouth massaging mine with his. I run my hand through his hair pulling at the soft strands.

I break the kiss my breathing short and heavy and press my forehead to his, gazing into his eyes.

I love the feelings he brings out in me the excitement of what we're doing driving me crazy but closer to him at the same time.

Let's just say most of the business project didn't get done that night.

I was getting ready for bed when I felt arms wrap around my waist. Not the arms I wanted to be wrapped around me. Justin begins placing soft kisses down my neck. Not the lips I wanted peppering me with kisses. He kisses me on the lips as the intense smell of alcohol fills my nose. I push Justin back staring into his wide red eyes.

"You're drunk." I glare at him as I slip my pajama shorts on and walk out of the bathroom.

"No," he says following me grabbing onto my wrist turning me to face him. "I'm not drunk, only had one drink," he slurs.

I roll my eyes and get in the bed grabbing his pillow and throwing it at him.

"You can sleep downstairs," I tell him, after he stands there for a bit he finally walks out of the room closing the door behind him.

After awhile I hear the front door slam shut and his car pulling out the driveway. Rolling my eyes I pull the duvet over my body.

I cut the light out and turn on my side to get comfortable and go to sleep.

I had just dozed off when I hear Brylee sniffling and begging me to wake up.

I sit up in the bed and look down at her, she had her pink bunny in a tight grip and tears falling down her cheeks.

"Come on baby," I tell her patting the empty spot in front of me.

She climbs on the bed cuddling up to me. I pull the covers over our bodies and wrap my arm around her rubbing her back for comfort.

"Is daddy mad at us?" She asks whispering.

"No sweetie."

I kiss her head "Now go to sleep."

After awhile I feel her steady breathing and hear her soft snores. Which eventually puts me too sleep knowing that's she's okay wrapped in my arms.
