The Narcissist

Chapter 15 - SOMETHING SWEET

We chatted a bit more after my embarrassing emotional outburst. I learned that he has an older sister who owns a restaurant where he get to work part time. I also disclosed to him that sometimes I work as a model in which he's definitely not surprised by that.

"Hey! You promised a dessert, so what are we having?" I asked, noticing that he's constantly checking out his watch.

He glanced up at me, "What do you want?" He asked back.

I contemplated a bit more before I answered, "I'm craving for an ice cream."

"Do you know a place that delivers ice cream?" He inquired.

I shook my head no.

"If you really want it, I could go out and buy some." He offered.

Again I shook my head no. I wanted us to have more time together.

At that moment my phone rang, "Hey bitch! You're in the apartment right?" I heard Fin on the other line.

I rolled my eyes, Fin is one of my bestfriend and he's also my manager. "Yea, I'm here. I have company." I answered glancing at Rhett's reaction.

He seemed somewhat curious as to whom I'm talking to. I smiled giddily at him.

"Are you with a hot guy? I'm coming over." Fin announced.

Ugh. Such a spoiler.

I thought about it for a moment, thinking how I can use him to my advantage. "You can visit me on one condition, bring some ice cream."

I heard him laugh, "It's a done deal." He said then dropped the call.

"Your boyfriend?" Rhett asked coolly. It was my turn to smirk at him.

I shrugged in response. "He's not really a boy in the first place."

My heart thumped as he looked elated for a moment, realizing what I said.

"What is 'he' then?" He asked coyly. 

Aw. Gawd. Is he flirting? I couldn't really tell.

I smiled back, "'He' might like you. Consider yourself warned."

"I appreciate your concern but not necessary. I don't swing that way."  He stated.

"Thank God!" I joked. "I'm relieved to hear that." I said.

"Seriously. I'm more of a-" He didn't  get to finish what he was about to say because my phone rang again.

"What flavor do you want?" Fin asked as I answered the phone.

"Fin!! You know what flavor I want." I said exasperatedly.

"Coffee crumble right? Of course I know what flavor you want. I'm just checking if I'm about to interrupt something cause I'm right outside your door." Fin stated in laughter.

For the second time around talking to Fin, I rolled my eyes. Rhett seemed to be amused by my reaction.

He raised an eyebrow. "He's outside the door. Can you please get him for me." I pleaded, I didn't want to get up because of my sprain.

Rhett stood up and went to get the door. Fin greeted him cheerily, "Hey hot stuff." He then kissed Rhett on both cheeks.

Rhett was quite taken aback by Fin's greeting and pulled away. Fin's attention turned to me, "Dahling, how are you?"

He went to me then gave me a quick peck on the lips. I observed Rhett's reaction, I thought he looked irritated but I'm not so sure because it only lasted for a millisecond.

"Sweet! Strawberry Chapstick!" Fin exclaimed. "This is gonna be fun!!" He added, glancing between me and Rhett.
