Caught in the Past

Chapter 5: Nothing Out of the Ordinary

Amara's POV

Waking up with a pounding headache is the worst. But waking up in a soft and comfy bed makes up for it. I don't want to leave this bed. My eyes start to open slowly, wincing when the light hits my eyes. Ugh how much did I drink last night? I yawn and stretch — well try to stretch. I felt weight around my waist. Then it groaned. My eyes grew wider as I turn to my right and see a man, the handsome man from the club last night, who's naked under the sheets. I looks down at myself and see that I'm also naked. 

"Fûck" I whisper. I slowly try to take the man's arm off my waist. When I finally get his arm off of me without waking him up, I get out of bed. I start looking for my clothes. Once I find my clothes, I put them on and make my way towards the door. I look back at the sleeping man behind me before opening the door and walking out, closing the door behind me. I've got all my clothes on but now all I have to do is find my purse and heels. 

I start making my way towards the living room...I think. His place is huge! You need a tour guide or something to get around this place. Once I finally get to the living room, I spot my purse on the table and heels near the door.

Sha la la la la la my oh my looks like the boy too shy ain't gonna kiss the girl. Sha la la la la la my oh my ain't that sad? Ain't it a shame? Too bad, he gonna miss the girl. 

Sh!t! That's my phone! I started running towards m purse to get my phone and turn it off. I picked up my purse and looked for my phone. Once I got it, I put it on vibrate. I noticed that I had twelve miss calls from my manager and four voicemails... "Oh God. I'm late!" I was in such a hurry that I didn't notice that there was a person behind me. "Oh my God I'm so sorry!" It was an older lady. Blake's mom?

"It's okay sweetie, don't worry about it," she politely says, "where are my manners, hi I'm Loretta. Mr Blake's housekeeper."

"Hi, I'm Amara" I simply said. I didn't know what to tell her. I barely met the man last night! 

"Are you staying for breakfast?" she asked me. 

"Oh um no, I'm not. I'm actually late for work, so if you'll excuse me I really need to go" I say, walking towards my heels. "Oh before I go, will you please give Blake some aspirin? I have a feeling he'll need it when he wakes up." I request whilst I open the door. 

Loretta smiles at me and nods her heads, "I will Miss. Have a good day!" I wave at Loretta and walk out the door.

Once I'm out the the building, I start listening to the messages my manager left me. Oh God, I'm going to get fired.

Logan's POV

My head is killing me! I reach out to my left and try to pull Amara closer to me, but when I did she wasn't there. I carefully opened my eyes to see no one beside me. I yawn and and sit up, looking at my bedside table to see that it's almost nine o'clock in the morning. There are two aspirin tablets and a glass of water. Thank God! I really need them right now. I take the tablets and water and get out of bed to shower.

Putting a towel around my waist, I make my way towards my walk in closet. I put on a white button up shirt and a pair of navy blue pants. I fixed my hair and I put on a light brown tie and grab my navy blue suit jacket. I walked out of my room and towards the kitchen. The smell of bacon filled my nose when I got closer to the kitchen. I see my housekeeper, Loretta, at the stove cooking breakfast. 

"Good morning Loretta" she jumps in shock when she hears my voice.

"Oh Lord sir you scared me!" she shrieks as she turns around, holding her hand to her chest. 

"Sorry Loretta" I say looking down, "thank you for the aspirin and water by the way."

"Oh you're welcome sir, but the young lady told me to do it" she says as she puts a few pieces of bacon onto a plate.
