The Narcissist

Chapter 34 - ISSUES

The photoshoot was long and exhausting, and it didn't help that the photographer was being quite demanding fueling my irritation.

"Chin up Gogo, only a few minutes left." Fin said reassuringly.

I looked sharply at him, "Why did you take this project Fin? I don't ever want to work with that photographer again."

"They tripled the amount they offered... and they specifically wanted you to be in it. Be grateful, they're making you rich.. and besides, one portfolio from this photographer and we'll get a lot of high-end client." He pacified.

"Gorgeous!! On set now!" The photographer called. 

I rolled my eyes even though he couldn't see me. "What's taking that diva so long?!" I heard him whisper to his assistant.

"The diva is coming!" I yelled back. Well, that shut him up. All eyes were on me, as it should be.

After the shoot, Fin was grinning from ear to ear heading towards me. "Guess what Gogo?" He looked excited.

"What? You've found your soulmate or something?" I snapped.

He shook his head, then called out to someone. Bouquet of flowers were being carried from the other side of the room.

Rhett.

I'm trying really hard not to smile, a note with my name was stashed visibly so I snatched it before accepting the flowers.

Baby,
See you tomorrow.
Yours, Rhett

That short note was all it takes for my irritation to dissipate. The reason why I was irritable the whole photoshoot was because I don't want to work today but Fin insisted that it will boost my career and it didn't help when Rhett agreed with him.

I pouted inwardly. I only just wanna spend time with my boyfriend. Is that too much to ask?

I plan to stay angry at the world, but these flowers are just so beautiful. I can't wait to see him. My smile could not be contained, as I inhale the scent of the flowers in front of me.

"You're such a bipolar bitch." Fin commented.

I just smiled quickly at him. "I'm just in love Fin. Come on I'm starving."

"Figures." He muttered.

As usual, per our tradition every after work we headed to my favorite pasta place.

"Spill me everything. So you and Rhett are now officially a couple?" Fin inquired adding pepper to his pasta.

I sigh dreamily, "Yeah we are."

His eyebrows furrowed. "Don't you think it's sketchy that he rejected you then now you're together together?"

I eyed him cautiously, "He has his reasons. I heard you're gonna talk to him?"

He nodded. "I will commence my interrogation when we meet."

My eyes bulged at what he said, "In that case I will warn him."

"I'm doing this for you dimwit. I don't want to see you heartbroken." He stated flailing his fork towards me.

"I know Fin. I know." I murmured. "Thank you. Like I said Rhett has his reasons for rejecting me, I'm afraid that if you knew what his reasons were, you would not be as supportive of our relationship." I said sadly.

"Nonsense. If you're happy with him, then I'm happy. Are you happy with him Gogo?" Fin asked curiously.

"He's all I want Fin. I'm happy.. but it bothers me that sometimes I feel like I'm.. that he's too good for me." I whined, hoping for his advise.

"I'll talk to him about it man to gay-man." He assured me.

"No don't, it's my own problen. My insecurities, my issue." I warned.

He looked at me in disbelief, "I can't believe you're having insecurities Gogo, of all people. But I think it could be good for you. Having no insecurity at all is scary, it's like you're not a human."

Yeah. I'm not a human before meeting Rhett, I'm a goddess. He's pulling me down to earth, and I'm letting him.

I giggled at the silliness of my own thought.

Of course, you're not a goddess. Rhett is the hero that keeps on saving you from plumetting to the ground.
