He looked away. "Well, I'm serious. "

"I better lodge in a hotel than to sleep in a man's house with anger issues... Cmon I don't want to wake up with bruises. "

"Jane, just please stop judging me with my past. "
"It's not your past... You're still the same for crying out loud. "He looked at her and said. "You won't listen to me. "

"Sure, I won't. "
"Okay. " He took a deep breath and said out loud. "People.. People. "
He caught their attention and he continued. "My girlfriend is damn angry with me and she won't want to go home with me.... " Jane looked at him surprised "Walsh.. What are you doing? "

"I've been begging and begging like I'd go crazy if she doesn't follow me... Please you guys should judge... Is it fair? "
"No. No. No" People said shaking their heads and she stood up embarrassed.
"Walsh stop this nonsense. "

"Hey... He's been begging. Just forgive him. " A black woman shouted to her and she shook.

Walsh then knelt down and she opened her mouth. "Stop being fucking dramatic. "
"Jane...... Please follow me home. I'm sorry. "

"Aww..... Follow him...... It's not fair............... "People said and she rolled her eyes. "Okay .....Walsh...... Ugh... Take me home. "

People started clapping and he smiled like he won a promo. He took her to the car and opened the door for her. She held the door by herself and he chuckled.
"So, I can't open the door? "
"Fuck you. "She entered the car and he walked to the other side and entered also. He started the car with a smirk.

"Jane.. Jane I just knew that will work. "

"Shut up and drive. " He let out a laugh and started the car.

The next morning, she woke up and yawned. She slept in the guest room even as Walsh begged her to sleep in his room. She had her bath and started thinking. She didn't want Mirai or Ryan or anyone know where she was so she decided to stay in this house for two days more. It would be good to just ghost like that. She switched off her phone so no one could reach her at all.

She came out of the room with the towel and went straight to the kitchen. She was already familiar with the house that she didn't need any direction. The house hadn't change a bit and she wasn't surprised. Walsh and Ryan both lived in mansions.

"Good morning. "She turned and saw Walsh nude.

"Lord have mercy. Go wear something. " He laughed. "You have seen it so why are you concerned? "

She rolled her eyes. "I'm staying for two days more. "He went to the fridge and drank a cup of orange juice.
"Cool... You can stay forever. "
"Whatever. "
"Well, you need clothes yeah? "
She looked at the towel and nodded. "I guess. "

"Aii... I'll go get you some clothes from the boutique down the road. "
"Great.... Well, I'm not being rude but I need something.... "
"Jane... That's crazy. I haven't forgotten your fashion sense so keep calm. "
She smiled. "oh. "
"Yeah. " They both chuckled and he smiled.

"So, I'll go get the clothes. "
"Okay. "
"Yeah. " She turned around and he left. She took a deep breath. "He's crazy. "
"I heard that. "

She tightened her lips and he said. "Don't roll your eyes or tighten your lips. "
She chuckled. "Hey! Go get the clothes! "
"Okay then. "

That day was really long. Walsh wasn't around and her phone had to be switched off so that no one would reach her. She spent the whole day sleeping and staring at the ceiling cause there was nothing to do. In the evening, she heard the door creak open and close back. It must be Walsh. She came out of her room and saw him dropping his case on the table.

"Hey. " She said walking towards the door.
"How was your day? "
"Useless. "She reached the door and he frowned. "Where are you going? "

"I'm taking a stroll. " She opened the door and he cleared his throat.
"Uhm... I was thinking about dinner. "
She looked at him with a frown "And? "
"Just me and you.... Go on a date. "
She laughed a little. "Okay... This is so a joke. " She wanted to walk out but he added quickly.

"Please....come eat with me. "
She turned. "Where? "
"Uhm... Marcleys? "
She cleared her throat. "Why? "
He chuckled. "Come on, that's your favorite place!"

She rolled her eyes. "Okay. "Walsh jumped up with joy as she walked back to her room. He didn't want to know why she suddenly changed her mind. He was very glad to eat with her.

"Thirty minutes..... Please. " He added and rushed to his room.

"Okay.... There has been some changes in this place. " She said with a grin.
"Maybe, it's been a while. "

"Not really... I've been here with someone and there were no changes... Like the big flower vase is now over here.. Wow. "
He used his handkerchief to wipe his mouth.

"It's that elevator guy, right? "She nodded in agreement. She would have cut in and be like Ryan's not an elevator guy but he deserved any insult right now. Walsh sat back and took in a deep breath.
"What? " She asked.
He smiled. "Nothing. "

"Okay then. " She took more spoons of her food in silence and was done.

He smiled. "Thanks for this. "
"And thanks for bringing me here. I've missed all of these." She gestured to the whole building and he chuckled.
"We could take the stroll you wanted. "
She smiled. "Right. "

They both came out of Marcleys and started walking down the road. Their plan was to walk and get the car later. They talked about alot of things on the road and few things on DEWS. Soon, she sat on a random chair and he joined her.
"Are you tired ?"
She blushed. "Just a little. "

"I could go get the car now. "
"No... We should get the car together. "
He smiled. "You're still stubborn. "

"Whatever. " She smiled and he took that as a nice reply.

He stared deeper into her eyes and she looked away. "What are you doing.... "
He came closer to her and she wanted to duck her head away but he stared at her weak spot. Her neck. "Damn, you know me so well. "

"I'd never stop trust me. " She couldn't resist any longer like he had her trapped in his fingers. He gently kissed her and she also did until she remembered that they were in public so she pulled away. A frown and then he smiled.
"Walsh... This isn't... "
"I know. I know. "

She sniffed air into her nose and took it out again.
"Okay. "
"I'll go get the car."
She nodded and he added.
"I miss you Jane. " He stood up and left her with her thoughts.

She didn't have any idea of what to do. He told her he misses her. Why does he have to be so stupid? When she was all his he took advantage and did many awful things with his anger. She rolled her eyes as the thought of Ryan crossed her mind. She was dating him and she had never caught him cheat so why will she do this with Walsh. She knew that if they weren't in public she would have continued till it reached another height.

"He'll be mad. " She said and thought of how annoyed Ryan would be. He'll loose it actually. She had to go back home tomorrow before she does anything further with Walsh. She was sure that he was going to drop anything that will lure her to him. The car parked in front of her and she got in.
