The Billionaire's Kiss

Chapter 10

Max P.O.V

I woke up to seeing Brandon sleeping soundly besides me. I gave him a light kiss before getting ready for the trip.

I was to be by my parents side as they campaign for his Senate seat.  He was a Congressman now but a spot was open for Senate which he set his eyes on.

"I'll call you every night" I told Brandon, he was helping me pack my bags.

"I just don't understand why you want to go all of a sudden?" He asked me,

"Truth is my mom guilt tripped me, so I have to go" I told him before pulling in.

"Don't go crazy" he said, I kissed his cheek

"I promise not to go too crazy with the parties" I told him,

Later that day, I headed on the road with my parents. I was a nice little tool for them, I got asked a few questions about my work but most were about my father. I had no choice but to answer then the way he wanted.

Every night I spent in the bars and clubs, drinking the hate I felt for my father down. It felt good, some of these cities knew how to party. I always made sure that the paparazzi didn't get anything but I don't remember half of what I did when I would get drunk.

There was these particular females that hanged out with some of my friends and I. They all enjoyed the finer things but had a problem of keeping their hands to themselves. I think I may have kissed one of them but I wasn't fully sure.

I missed Brandon, my sexy boyfriend that make me happy. I knew he was new to the whole relationship thing and I basically forced him to part ways with me for a while but it was going to be fine in the end.

I might be falling in love with him, he had all the qualities I wanted in a partner. He came from a good family, he had a great work ethic, he made me happy.

I was heading to my apartment after the long 2 weeks I spent campaigning for my father. I opened my doors quietly while heading to my room.

There he was, sleeping soundly. I missed him bad, I wanted to wake him up and make him scream my name.

I unpacked my stuff, making sure not to wake him up at all. Thankfully it was a weekend, I took a shower changed and got in bed.

When I woke up a couple of hours later, he wasn't next to me. I rose while wiping my eyes, I walked out of my bedroom heading to the kitchen. Brandon was up but he didn't look to happy.

"Good morning gorgeous" I said to him,

"What is this?" He asked me, I looked at the magazine he pointed to

Right there on the front page was a picture of me kissing a girl, it was the same girl that hung out with me during the campaign.

"I kissed a girl and I liked it" I said coming closer towards him, he glared at me

"It's not funny" he said,

"I'm sorry, I don't remember when it happened but I was drunk. It won't happen again" I told him,

"You don't get it do you?" He said standing up,

"This is my greatest fear, finding someone who I really care about leaving me" he said,

"I know your not gay and I accepted that but you doing stuff like that make me feel like this relationship isn't real for you. That your just with me to pass the time before you leave me for a someone else who might be a women." He said, he started to wipe his eyes, damm it. Now I felt like a piece of shit.

"Look at me" I said grabbing his head, forcing him to look at me

"She doesn't mean anything to me, I'm happy with you right now. I'm not planning on leaving you for anyone, so get that out of your head." I told him before kissing him,

"Let's go somewhere to eat tonight" I told him, when we pulled apart,

"Ok" he said before kissing me back,

Brandon P.O.V

I know that sometimes I could be emotional but I knew I was in love with Max and he needed to know that it wasn't right what he did to me.

After that talk that we had, I felt much better but there was still that feeling that maybe we needed to talk more about it. However I was happy that we were finally going somewhere out to eat.

Since we started dating, I don't think I've been out with him again. Either he was busy or both of us were. So we always spent our time together in our apartments, which wasn't doing good for my skin.

As we got into the car, I couldn't help get excited as we pulled up to a nice restaurant. He laughed but kissed me just before getting out.

"Max Ryder" he said to the hostess, she smiled at him before grabbing the menus for us and walking inside the restaurant.

It was packed, but the smell coming from inside was absolutely amazing. I couldn't wait to try the food. We were seated all the way in the back, at first I didn't notice until I looked up to see the kitchen not to far from us.

"How come we're all the way back here?" I asked him as he looked at the menu,

"We're not that far" he replied back,

"We're next to the kitchen" I told him,

"They were packed, do you want to leave?" He says to me looking up,

"No, it's ok. You order for me" I said putting my menu down, I felt that nagging feeling again. The same one I felt when I saw his picture with that girl.

That maybe he wasn't ready to be with me.

That I wasn't what he truly wanted.
