Chapter Twelve

Oh my God, my head is heavy! Why didn’t I close the shades before I slept? Oh my God! A lot of things happened before I slept! I remember I came back home with Kevin, I remember I made myself a joke by begging him, I should kill myself! How could I do such thing! Sofia will be really happy to hear I let my pride go away. But I am not happy, how will I face him in the office tomorrow? Thank God it is Sunday and I don’t have to see him, in fact I don’t want to see nor do anything today, I just want to lie in bed. Holly shit! I am not wearing my pajamas! Oh no, Kevin took off my clothes, I really embarrassed myself yesterday.

I sit up in my bed and drink water from the small bottle on the side. I notice something weird, the sofa in my bedroom is messed, the pillows look crumbled and the duvet is not folded, it looks as if someone was sleeping there. Could it be me? Maybe I fell asleep on it and moved later to the bed. But wait! There is a black jacket on the chair in front of the mirror. Why are there men’s shoes in my bedroom? I search the room for more unusual stuff and notice a black iPhone 5 on the night table next to the sofa, I thought it was mine but then I remembered that mine is right next to me because I checked the time as soon as I opened my eyes, it was 11:30 am. Whose phone is that? Who is in my apartment?

I got out of my bed and reached for the phone, the wallpaper is for a beautiful kid laughing. I put the iPhone down and picked up the jacket and smell it, it is Kevin’s. I am sure, it is his perfume: Dolce&Gabbana light blue. He slept here? I am in total shock but I still can’t believe it.  Where is he?

Oh my God oh my God oh my God!! I am totally freaking out! What should I do? I cannot see him after I made a fool of myself yesterday! I start pacing the room not knowing what to do. Maybe I should just go back to bed and fake sleeping until he gives up and leaves. I cannot see him, although I want to. What is he doing in my apartment? Why did he sleep here? Was I that drunk? That is why he could not leave me alone? I remember I asked him to stay but he refused.

 Curiosity and anticipation are killing me; I really want to know what happened. I don’t want to go out; I will stay in my bed, sooner or later he will come in. His phone started to ring but it was on silent mode, I looked at the caller ID and it wrote Jamie. I let it ring and go back in bed; I tried to be patient as much as I could but I felt like wasting time, I can be in there with him doing whatever he is doing.

Ten minutes later I hear the door opening, luckily I was turning my head the other side so he didn’t notice that I was awake. He enters really slowly and doesn’t make any sound. I cannot see what he is doing but I think he saw the missed call from Jamie and called her back because it was seconds before he spoke to his phone in a very low and cold voice.

“What the hell do you want? What part of don’t ever call me again you did not understand?” he is silent for about less than a minute and then he continues with the same tone “I don’t give a shit, don’t ever call me again.”

Who is Jamie and why is he talking to her like this? I hear him sighed and I can feel his pain. I shifted in my bed and turned my head to his direction, I saw him half naked, sitting on the sofa and looking through the window. This man is ridiculously handsome. His back is just so damn sexy. Why did he take his dress shirt off? To seduce me or to torture me? Because seeing this kind of beauty and not being able to touch it is definitely a torture. He is not looking at me, he is staring at the view in the window, of course the view is absolutely beautiful but I am half naked in bed, I think I win here.

“Hey” I faked my voice to make it sound as if I just woke up.

He turns his head and his frown and hard look are instantly transformed into a full smile and the softest look ever. He walks towards me and sat next to me on the bed.
