UNDERCOVER {Competed} 😌

chapter 3

Mercy
I entered the servants room and went straight to the small room. There was only one wardrobe and only one bed. Biting my lower lip I almost cried when I noted there was no other door leading to a living room. . Joshua was right. I moved back and run into a hard obstacle.

Joshua!

His scent rode into my nose and took my breath away. When his large hands griped my shoulders,I jumped.

"What's wrong?" He asked as he took his hand in mine. The way his green eyes stared at mine made me feel like I'm in a different universe. Somewhere where  no problems existed.

"Why did u scare the crap out of me?" I said turning to the door and pulling my hand away. Big mistake,now my back was rubbing his front.

"I didn't exactly have a choice."

True the room was small and it seemed like I'd be bumping into him every time I turned around.
"At least there's some space here," I said pointing at the space between the wardrobe and the bed. "You can put your beddings here."
"Did u forget what I said in the car?" Joshua asked his jaws already showing signs of anger.
"I put it out of my mind." I shouted.

"Don't u dare shout at me little girl! I said if there's only one bed we are tacking I'm together and-" he stopped

My vision became blur. My lungs run out of breath. A wave of dizziness hit me What's wrong with him? My face felt hot. And I couldn't think. I couldn't hear. I took a step towards the door, my legs felt weak and I almost fell but he caught me in his arms. He looked at me. Concern in his eyes.

This was embarrassing. I had tears in my eyes. It was happening again. Am getting weak again.  Am letting my emotions rule over me.

I was shaking. I had to compose myself. I reached for the inhaler in my pocket used it and asked him to let go off me. He didn't at first but when I rubbed my tears and spoke he let go of me.
Blushing the curls of my hair from my  face I smiled weakly.

"Look the driver is waiting for me to pick up my bags. Let me get them"

He wanted to go for them for me and even insisted but I couldn't let him. I wanted a moment with the driver to interview him. I wouldn't let a minor thing set me back from my big story.

Joshua
Looking her from behind is great. I loved her hair. All curly and I couldn't help but  admire it. She was busy looking for an extra door to the living room and I couldn't help but smile. She was disappointed. I gripped her shoulder to comfort her but she jumped like a scared little girl.

I have never seen a girl taken away by emotions that she turned red as pepper. Me and my big mouth. Sometimes I think I need mouth control.  I always find mean things to say.
She must be thinking am a jerk now.

Since when did I start thinking about what a woman thinks about me? Hell crap!
What's taking her so long? Did she fall with the bags or something? I was worried about this little girl. But I'll be calling her pepper I hope she likes it. She's not only had a hot body but she also had a temper. And her face turned red and hot when angry.
Or is it when taken by emotions?

Her light weight felt incredible on my arms. And her skin was so smooth. Her lotion must be cocoa butter and I could  rem the scent of her perfume. And her hair...

I decided to unpack and occupy the top drawers. I grinned. She would need a stool to reach the top drawers. I'll have some privacy.

I almost jumped when I looked at my watch. Twenty minutes have gone by. I should look for her now.
