A Life I Didn't Plan For

Chapter Five

     I finished my tour and I sure as hell was not looking forward to heading home. I knew for a fact, Erin would blackmail me into giving her another child. How? I may be a grown ass man, but she will threaten to take my son away from me and never let me see him again. I didn't care if she took me for my billions, all I cared about was Blake.

I needed a vacation, I decided the best way to destress is a couple extra days in New York.

New York happened to be one of my favourite places in the world. Sure it was loud and busy but I loved it. There was just something that drew me make each time. Maybe it was my multiple properties, all the shops, or maybe it was just getting to be alone.

My first stop was to Lilac Bakery. I was anxious to go inside but I wanted something sweet.

When I walked inside there was few people, they weren't paying any attention to the world around them. Some talking to others, some reading, some on their laptops and some on their phones.

I walked up to the cash and deep down inside, I wished Mystery Girl would have came out, but it was her grandmother.

"Mister President!" She grinned. "What can I get for you?" She asked.

She was such a sweet lady.

"A six pack of cinnamon buns, sugar cookies, and brownies. Please." I gave a smile as I took out my wallet.

She came back to the cash with three purple pastry boxes and set them down. I paid for them and took the boxes from her. "Thank you." I smiled at her.

"You're welcome."

With that, I went back out to the car and put the boxes in the back seat. I heard something.

Turning around, I seen Mystery Girl and some guy. Fighting.

"Come on, Babe! I haven't had that much to drink!" He slurred. "Lets go back to my place. I miss you." He grabbed ear arm and pulled her towards him.

"Stop it, Seth!" She tried to push him away but she couldn't.

I ran over there and pushed this Seth guy away from her. "She said stop it, Man."

He looked at me and then to Mystery Girl. "You fučking him?!" He raised his voice towards her. Really, Dude, really?

"What? No! Why would it matter anyway?! We've been over for almost a year!" She crossed her arms. She was obviously embarrassed for me to be here hearing all this.

"Listen, go home before you do something stupid." I warned him.

"Oh yeah?" He challenged. "What are you going to do about it?" He shoved me and I let out a laugh. I hardly budged when he had pushed me.

"It's not me." I looked over at my body guards. "It's them." A smirk spread across my face.

With that he was taken away by them.

I turned around to face Mystery Girl. "Are you alright?" I asked her.

"Thank you. For that. Seth can get a little out of control when he's drunk."

"Does he bug you often?" I asked as I looked into her beautiful brown eyes that sparkled.

"About once a week, or so." She shrugged

"You should file for a restraining order." I suggested.

"He's harmless. Trust me." She insisted.

"Alright then. I'm Oliver, by the way." I told her in hopes of getting her name.

"I'm-" She was cut off by her grandmother calling her. "See you around, thank you so much again." She said and went inside.

God damnit. I was close to finding out her name. I mean I guess if I really wanted to know it I could have my people find it. But that takes all the mystery out of life. Mystery is definitely something everyone needs more of.

There was definitely something about her that was different, a really good different.
