BELLA scowled and sat gracefully. Joshua had to admit inwardly that she was attractive,very,but he feared that she knew how attractive she was and used it to get whatever she wanted whenever she wanted it.His fear was confirmed when her scowl turned into a charming smile in a split second.
She cocked her head at him."Joshua,can you please order some water?I'm a little dehydrated."
The smile didn't get to him.He folded his arms and looked down at her.She waited.Waited.Waited.
Then he took his seat opposite her.
"You've got two legs,Miss Bella.Go get it yourself."
Bella's face promptly fell.From a closer angle,Joshua realized that scowling really suited her,and he was more than happy to be the cause of it.
"You are rude," she said simply and rose.She walked to the counter.It was hard not to stare at her as she walked.Everything about her was seductive.
He was not attracted to her.He was not attracted to her.He told himself twice,in case his mind wanted to play tricks on him.He was not attracted to girls who were overconfident and unbearable.He was not attracted to her but for some obscene reason couldn't take his eyes of her.She's simply...interesting, Joshua, he told himself. Simply interesting.
"Yo,Josh!" Emiko yelled.Joshua whipped his head to face him.
"What?"he asked.
"You just zoned out,man.Were you even listening to Nini?"
Joshua paused,then turned to Nina. "I'm sorry,Miss Jackson.What were you saying?"
Nina shook her head."Try to focus here,Joshua, please.And it's Nini."
"I don't feel inclined to call you Nini.I prefer Miss Jackson."
Nina frowned at him and then turned to Emiko.
"Is he always this annoying?"she snapped.
"Again..I apologize for his,"Emiko turned to Joshua,"pigheadedness."
He held Nina's hand. "Forgive him,Nina.He'll behave," he said giving her his killer smile again.
She removed her hand from his grasp.
"Nini,"she corrected.
"Right," Joshua said,sarcastically. "Nini."
She glowered at him."I think we should end this meeting effective immediately."
"I couldn't agree more," Bella said,sitting beside Nina."These boys are..." she paused and whirled her fingers in the air as though trying to find the right word.
"Uncooperative,"she said finally, and smiled at Joshua.
Emiko closed his eyes and groaned loudly."I should have known you ruin this, Josh."
Joshua paused and then cleared his throat.The words he was about to say were hard.He hardly admitted being wrong but he prided himself in being a man of honour, and honourable men always admitted their wrongs.
He cleared his throat again...the words seemed to form a huge ball in his throat.
"I'm sorry," he muttered.
Nina's eyes widened in surprise.
Bella cocked her head sideways.
"Pardon me,Joshua,but I didn't hear you.What did you say?"she asked,smirking.
Joshua glared at her.Why did she have to be so annoying?He didn't want to apologize,but he needed the money.Plus,he couldn't have his best friend mad at him for the rest of their lives if they lost these girls.
"I'm sorry."
Bella only said one word."Liar."
It took Joshua all of his willpower not to explode at her,and Emiko noticed.Beneath the table,Joshua's left hand was twitching.He was trying to curb his anger.
Emiko smiled.At least Joshua was making effort.
"That's alright, isn't it,Nina?He has apologized," he said,turning to Nina.She seemed to be the gentler one. Bella was just...aggravating.
Nina sighed."I guess so.Well,the fee's set at five thousand bucks.We'll meet at whatever location that's comfortable for Bella and I."
"Yes,"Bella piped up."Forget not,boys,that we call the shots here.We decide everything.Todo."
Emiko frowned a little.
"What's that?"
"Everything," Joshua said, before she could speak.He turned to Emiko."Todo means everything."
"That's fine,girls."Emiko grinned at them.
"Not with me,"Joshua said,glaring singularly at Bella."We have a life,you know."
Bella chuckled once,mockingly. "Oh,really..."
"We have things to do and places to go,Miss Bella.We'll all have to draw up a schedule to fit in with all of our schedules.Do you mind,Nina?"
Nina smiled at him for the first time."No I don't.Which is why,starting tomorrow, Emiko and I will begin working on our schedule."
Emiko looked pleased. "No problemo,Nini.Just state the time and place."
Nina leaned forward and smiled. "My house..at nightfall."
"Why at night-," Joshua's words were cut off by the death glare Emiko sent his way."Uhh,okay."
Bella and Joshua whipped their gazes to each other.It was their turn to plan their schedule.Together.
