LOVING HIM IS A MISTAKE #Wattys 2016

chapter 23

The weekend went so fast and it like I didn't have time to breathe. I guess that is what happens when you binge watch your favorite show alone with ice cream waiting for a call from a boyfriend you don't have.

"Ms James would you like some refreshments"

"No thanks" I simply refused as i glared at him. He forced me on this dumb trip anyway and i planned on being a  nuisance while I'm here in his expensive private jet.

"Ms James are you ok?"

"I don't know you tell me,"

"Is it that time of the month?"

My mouth formed into an O shape and he smirked at my reaction. WTF?!!!! How dare he?

"Isn't it very unprofessional to be discussing my menstruation with my boss? Besides the only way you'll know if it that time of the month is if you're bleeding for me"

"You're right I am the boss"

Seriously that's all he heard from my rant. I slumped down in frustration and he instantly smirked happily in his seat.

"What's so funny?"

"Nobody's Laughing Ms James"

"Then why are you smiling?"

"It's not a crime to smile Ms James"

Ughhhhhhh!! Is it bad to wish this plane to crash and kill me so I don't have to deal with this man?

"When will we land?"

Tired of being in this fancy plane with him alone, I don't know why all the other employees had to take another flight while I was stuck with the arrogant boss. He said that he wanted his assistant close and he didn't want me running away because he wanted to quote "make sure I get on this trip and enjoy myself" unquote.

"You shouldn't be worrying about that"

"What should I be worrying about Mr. Price" I said coping his tone of voice which clearly made him a bit annoyed. Ha! It's my turn to get on someone's last nerve!!

"What if the plane crashes Ms James? Or if someone hijacks it?"

He's trying to make me afraid and I have to say it's working, when I was younger I had this phobia of planes and I got over it thanks to.....I shook that thought away. I wanted to forget my past for good.

"I don't care what happens as long as I get off this plane before someone takes their last breath "I said narrowing my eyes at his big head.

He made a tsk sound. "You shouldn't be making threats Ms James especially when we're in my private jet someone can easily get thrown out"

Did he just....? Relax Tay take deep breaths and count to five maybe when you open your eyes he'll disappear.

*open eyes*

what a big disappointment? He still there!! I need to calm down because I think I'm going crazy. I send him glares and all he does is smirk.

"I'll take that drink now Mr Price"

"No"

"Why?"

How the hell did he just change his mind? I need a drink.

"Because of your history as an alcoholic"

I scoffed. "What history? I was never an alcoholic"

"Don't tell me you've forgotten the night you strolled into my office drunk"

"Ok I won't tell you, just get me my drink"

He called for the stewardess and whispered into her ear and she instantly giggled. I felt disgusted just looking at them. Who flirts with their stewardess? Anyways why is her skirt so short? And why all of a sudden he does what I want?

When she came back she handed me what look like a mimosa, I murmured thanks but she didn't leave. She stood there stubbornly and I started to feel skeptical. Like what if he decided to poison me? I decided to take a sip.....

"What the fuck?!!"

She busted out laughing while Price tried to hold back his urge to laugh. I send them both death glares.

"Why the hell did you give me water?!!!"

"Ms James she was just doing her job besides you got what you wanted"

"This is far from what I wanted"

"Next time be specific"

Sigh. I looked up to the stewardess and I gave her back the glass. "Get me something with alchol in it or i will make you disappear permanently"

She hurriedly went away in fear but Price stopped her and whispered in her ear irritating me again. i noticed she didn't even come back this time. I'm furious and he's going to get the silent treatment. Then I looked down and saw my bracelet which brought back memories.

*flashback*

"Close your eyes" he commanded and I instantly listened. For him I would do anything without thinking twice. honestly I don't know how we even got to this point....... where we couldn't go a day without seeing each other.

"Ok you can open them"

When I opened my eyes I was totally surprised. We were on top of a skyscraper and I instantly started to step back in fear.

"I can't do this" I closed my eyes abruptly refusing to open them and I wanted to walk away and hide but i was afraid to move. The cool air brushed across my face and I instantly shivered. I'm afraid of heights.

"Open your eyes and trust me" he said pulling me close. My head starting to spin and my throat went dry.I felt like throwing up and my legs went weak and then  His arm wrapped around me and instantly I felt safe. I felt at home in his arms and I didn't want him to let go. "I need you to look at me sweetheart" he said almost as a whisper.

I felt vulnerable and weak as I opened my eyes and a tear ran down my cheek. He look stared at me intensely as he took out a box and handed it to me.

"What is it?" i said wiping my tears away as if i wasn't crying in the first place.

"Just open it"

I opened it and saw a beautiful charm bracelet. I muttered my thanks and he nodded at me." Whenever you're afraid, I want you to remember this moment. "

"What do you mean?"

"Us. I want you to remember that you don't have to face your fears alone and every time you look at it, let it remind you that I'll always be there"

I smiled as I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself down. Honestly it worked. My body instantly calmed down and i felt a rush being this high for someone who was afraid of heights and when i got comfortable we went closer to the edge and then We both watched the sunset together and it was perfect until.....

"Ms James we're here"

I was happy we finally reached our destination and replaced the sudden sadness I felt about my past. I really need to move on but I can't understand why I haven't?

Why can't I let you go? I silently said to myself as I prepared myself for whatever is going to happen on this forced trip. I hope I enjoy myself and forget my troubles for they are as many as the stars in the night sky.
