"Um..I think we have strayed off the right course." I maffled realising we had been driving through the streets I was nescient of.

"What?-oh Damn ! I guess it was a left back there ." Taking a quick look at the rear view mirror ,Renzo pressed on to the breaks and the car came to an abrupt halt making a little squeal as the tyres protested.

Cursing under his breadth he maneuvered his car around .I had been enthralled  with my deep  thoughts that I wasn't fully cognizant of my surroundings .

When the jet landed on the runway twenty minutes ago I had been jerked awake from my sleep in an cloddish position.

Checking my watch I had realized we had made it in just an hour .

The cars awaited us ready to drop us at the Jenkins' penthouse .

After persuading a gullible Ada that I needed to head back home instead of staying over at the Jenkins ' for the rest of the night , I withdrew my luggage from the jet only to realize that it was Renzo who had offered to drop me .

Neither of us shared a word in the car and the silence continued to reign ever since .

With the sleep melting out from my body there was nothing I could focus on rather than reaching my home soon.

Slowing the peaks on my mansion came into view, making a  eerie dark silhouette against the grey clouds .

"I'm sorry ." I heard him whisper .

"Uh?" I asked pondering if it was merely my imagination when I heard him vocalize .

"I said I'm sorry ."he repeated and I felt his eyes on me .

" Sorry? Sorry for what?"I asked peeking from underneath my eyelashes to see if he was serious.

Our eyes met for a brief moment and my heart raced .Gazing into the depths of his dark eyes that seemed to swallow me whole, I felt myself inclining towards him . I immediately dropped my gaze to my hands to switch off the turmoil building deep into my chest at that second and I swallowing hard I put on  a cool exterior.

I shouldn't be feeling this emotion that was flooding inside me. I wasn't allowed to .
Darn it !

"For kissing you." Came his reply.

He can't have regretted it , could he?
Was I that bad?

After a few seconds of thoughtful silence I replied him with a mirthless chuckle trying to lighten the atmosphere hiding the prick of sadness I felt within at the thought of him regretting .

"I kissed you back .So, I suppose it sums it up?" I lifted my shoulders lightly to express that I was cool with it.

I peeked up once more to see an enticing  smirk playing  on his lips.

Thoughts that I had been suppressing all day came clashing into my memory -recalling every moment ,every breadth that we took against each others lips .

My lips tingled and I bit it hard lowering  my eyes only to make it fall on his lean body that was hidden inside his tacky outfit .

Stop drooling Leah!

I felt the car slow down and looked up to see him pulling over my house , right in front of the gates .

Removing my seat belt I made a movement to open the door when a rough,large hand encircled my wrist .
