MR DORELLO POV
She was incredibly cute when she was irritated. Her eyebrows would shoot up and dance around her forehead like the dancers in my company, how funny.
Lucas and I seemed to hold the same passion- getting Kenya hot and bothered and our eyes met every single time she squirmed and tapped the table in frustration.
It was honestly hilarious and one of the most entertaining things to do. It wasn't like I was taking it too far, I made sure she wasn't scared because the truth is she barely knew who I was and Lucas still had his guard up ready to kill need be to protect his... friend? girlfriend? God knows.
Their relationship is way too intimate to be a friendship but still slightly withdrawn to be a relationship I guess I'd have to ask if I really wanted to find out- not that it mattered to me anyhow.
I swished the wine I had most recently ordered in my glass before drinking it, I felt Kenya's eyes searching my body probably trying to get a hint at what my intentions were since I was starting to get her more and more flustered by the second.
I pretended like I couldn't feel her gaze on me and I and decided to test out a few things that would maybe hint to me if she was dating Lucas.
A woman not too far from us was walking towards the bathroom. I had no interest in her at all she wasn't striking in any form but I decided to let my eyes show otherwise. I followed the shape of her petite body and pretended to be magnetically drawn to her as Kenya made a squealing noise in annoyance.
It was disrespectful I must admit, even if she was dating Lucas it was still socially unacceptable, but I couldn't help but think her squeal was made in jealousy and not at the shock of my lack of etiquette. I looked over to see the damage I had created and realised she was squealing in protest to Lucas who was teasing her by just almost giving her the alcohol he had taken from her before taking a sip himself. She was furious alright. I don't doubt that she would act any differently if she was sober but was saddened to figure out that she hadn't even been in the slightest bit aware of my rudeness. I am being ridiculous. Clearly she dates Lucas. Clearly she loves him with all her heart. Clearly I am starting to be quite fond of Kenya. CLEARLY I need to disengage from excessive contact with her to prevent me carrying out any frivolous actions that would consequently result in my company going to shame, I couldn't make my mother see me corrupt all her work because of a girl. I had to leave, it pained me to see Lucas play fight with her and then her move to seat next to him and place her head on his lap in defeat. I felt somewhat possessive over her. This isn't healthy... AT ALL.
Maybe I should just call one of the desperate women who save their numbers in my phone after a drunk one night stand. Surely any woman could satisfy the feeling I felt accumulating by the second in the southern area.
I cleared my throat loudly before saying, " I have some business to take care off, thank you for a pleasant evening." I excused.
Lucas smiled and nodded. "Kenya probably won't remember most of what's happened tonight but I assure you we had a good evening. Thank you for the hard work you do to contribute to the success of our future. Good evening." he said bowing his head slightly and stroking the hair of his girlfriend lovingly. I swallowed as I fought back the urge to rip his hands from her hair.
"You are very welcome Lucas, see you nice and early tomorrow tell Kenya that she'll need to join us for a gym session. A fairly light one for her case." I managed before putting on my blazer from my chair and exiting the building.
I stood outside the restaurant and hailed for a black cab. I looked through the list of foreign names realising how many girls I had slept with and how large the sea was. I didn't need a simple dancer. I could have Holly, Emma, Zeriah, Tamzia, Jennifer, Tora, France and many more from just a tap of a finger. I tapped Zeriah's name, I simply hadn't heard a name like that before, I don't remember any of these girls.
"Hello?" a voice answered questioningly.
"Its David." I said simply.
"Uh- it, it is? Wow David I can't believe you called. Wo- wow okay nice. How are you?" she said literally bouncing in excitement.
I cringed at the fan girl tone she took on but I needed satisfaction.
"Yes, its David. I am going to pick you up now, send me your address." I stated blankly.
"You are? Okay. So- oh I'll text it to you then." she answered more happy than before.
I didn't respond to that and cut off the phone. Two heartbeats later and a message with her address came through. See?... easy. I gave the driver the address and he swiftly started his journey. Oh God please, please be rid me of this want. Let Za- whatever cure me of this desperation.
KENYA POV
I was in a bundle of giggles in the comfort of Lucas' legs he was stroking my hair and I felt beautiful to be tended to in such a gentle way. Lucas tapped my shoulders lightly.
"Hmmm?" I said seeing stars.
"Mr Director has left, do you want to go?" he asked.
" Mr Dorelli has goneei? WHAAAT? Bla- when?" I said struggling to form words.
"Yes sweetheart. Lets go home." he answered lifting me bridal style out the exit to which no one could see us.
"Never will you drink again. Never." he whispered into my ears and carried me all the way to my room.
Once we arrived, he removed my sandals and unzipped my clothes so I was left in my underclothes. I didn't feel uncomfortable as Lucas had seen me butt naked on the toilet and ran into me naked when I was changing countless numbers of times, there was nothing that he hadn't seen at this point. Next Lucas tucked me into bed and told me to close my eyes whilst he went to fetch makeup removing wipes. I was thankful for I had once told Lucas that I heard every day you sleep with makeup on is a months worth of ageing. I guess he didn't want me old and wrinkly. Ewww- old and wrinkly... I giggled at the term.
Lucas returned and I felt the cold wipes against my face and internally shivered. It wasn't long before I fell into deep sleep but before I did I saw Luca prepare my gym bag placing in it black shorts and a sports bra as well as a towel, clean washcloth, water bottle, protein bar, plastic bag, trainers, headphones, deodorant and a hairbrush.
I guess we were going to the gym.
