Love Isn't The Way.

Chapter 6

As soon as I got out of the building, surely there he was, My Own personal Devil. The moment I saw what he was wearing It felt like my jaw dropped. He too was wearing a white T-shirt and dark blue distressed jeans and did I mention his cocky grin. In another time I would've actually been happy to see this.

'Whoa, see even the Universe wants us to be together'.He said while opening his car door.

' Like that's ever going to happen, and if we are going somewhere, I want to drive'.Not that I wanted to but I just didn't want him to have the power. It's just driving, I know but I can't help it.

He narrowed his eyes 'only if you catch these'.And suddenly threw the car keys towards me and fortunately enough I caught it. Thank God. He glared and got in the passenger seat. I swayed my hips and sat in driver seat with a huge grin on my face.

'So, where are we going?'.I asked.

'Someone's eager to ride with me' He teased.

I rolled my eyes and asked again and this time he punched the address on the GPS.I was shocked to see that he still remembered. And I looked at him in wonder

He noticed me staring and asked' What, Cat got your tongue'.

'You still remember that I never have been able to navigate roads and always use GPS to go anywhere'.I somehow choked the words out.

'Of course I did Zen, I remember everything.... everything'.he whispered.

The rest of the car was silent and the whole while my thoughts were a mess, I couldn't recognize this new side of Alec. Has he really changed, No he hasn't because I remember last night and banish any thoughts that might convince me to accept him because I can't go through all of that again. All that pain, all that hurt. It's just too much to handle.

When we finally reach our destination and when we did, I didn't know whether I should be surprised or happy that he brought me here, It was a country club where usually people came to discuss deals and propositions. I was surprised because he hasn't ever brought me here and happy because I actually have been here before, loads of time, that means maybe just maybe today I really do have an upper hand but then I remember who is sitting with me and erase all my hopes. Doesn't matter what the situation Alec always wins.

'Why are we here ?' I asked him.

'I wanted to discuss somethings with you'.he said with a poker face.

'What kind of things'.seriously, he wants to discuss business with me. but why ?

'A proposition'.with that he got out of the car and opened the my car door as well.I expected him to say more but figured to just stay quiet. Maybe it's not business he wants to discuss, maybe it's something else.
I gave the car keys to the valet and he tipped him and kept his hand at the small of my back telling everyone that I am his. Anyone who saw us would really think that we're made for each other.As soon as we entered inside, we were ushered to the private area upstairs and for once it wasn't because of the asshole beside me, it was because I was a private member here. Yeah,being me is amazing.

As soon as were settled inside Alec asked' So, you've been here before?'

'Every fucking billionaire has not only been here but has a private membership, that includes total 5 people, including me' I said with a smirk which resulted me with a smile on his lips. Alec was billionaire as well but he never indulged in these kind of things because it might've have jeopardised his Mafia thing.

'Anyway, what kind of proposition do you have, it's not like your business isn't going well'.I said and took a sip from my mojito.

' I don't wan't to discuss business with you, I have a proposition about our relationship' He said. I knew it!.

I almost choked on my drink 'WHAT ??!!' I feign shock.

'Hear me out,after last night I did some thinking and you're right I always fuck up our relationship and I will again but As long as I am with you I can at least count on you to help me not fuck up. I didn't care about our relationship before but I do now and that's why I will always try hard to not screw it all which means from now on you are in charge of our relationship'.he said with such a deep expression

' Are you serious ? how is that going to work?' I was actually excited for that.

'Well, for starters, we will be living under the same roof where you can decide whose place would it be. Second you will decide the parameters of our relationship meaning if you don't want me doing something then I'll stop without question. Third, you have the complete power to add or subtract anything to our relationship if u want'.he was so nervous I could see it radiate it off of him.

I was spellbound. Is he the same Alec who thirsts for control in everything, the same one who is willing to give up the one thing that he needs to survive.

'You're willing to give up control for me ?' I asked.

'Yes, because I need you to survive my black life and I am willing to give up anything for it, so whatever it is you now need from me , I will give it to you.' He took my hand and looked at me as if I was the most beautiful creature he had ever seen.

For the next one and half hour we didn't argue,we didn't fight but just talked. Judy casual stuff that any person in their late twenties would be talking about.

When we were back in the car Alec all of sudden asked me

' Look as I have given up so much for you, I believe it's your turn'.He said with that cocky grin plastered on his face.

' What do you need ?'.I whispered when abruptly got way too close to me.
