I've been sulking for the past few days. I decided that I don't want to be Colton's PA and so I quit. I think I will just find a job as a waitress or something. My father has been in the hospital for five days now and they said he's going to make it but will have to go on a strict diet if he wants to prolong his life. That bastard deserved more than just a diet.
***
Colton won't let me see my dad again because after my little episode in the parking lot I tried to run back into the hospital. Screaming that I was going to stab the man in the heart. Colton carried me back to the car and drove me home and now for the past four days I've been eating ice cream and pizza whilst watching "that 70's show".It's only 6:00 at night before Colton gets home. He undos his tie at the door and unbuttons his shirt giving me a glimpse of his bare chest. I snuggle back into the couch.
"What did you do to our list of rules." He states when he walks into the kitchen. Ah he is referring to our list of rules that I ripped up and placed on the counter.
"Those rules are bullshit and you know it. Besides we've broken at least half of them." I let out a sigh " my father will hopefully die soon then the deal won't matter anymore and I'll be out of your hair."
Colton stays quiet for a couple minutes. I watch him slump down on the couch and huff.
A few minutes pass before he whispers "Grey, if you need to talk about it you can with me." He waits for my reply that doesn't come. "If you don't feel comfortable with talking to me I can hire a therapist." I'm still quite. He lets out a sigh and grabs my hand, rubbing my palm in his hand he speaks again "babe, I don't like seeing you like this."
I finally speak "I'm just so fucking mad I don't know what to do it's just... what if that man hadn't stopped or you didn't show up. I just" my voice breaks and I know I'm about to cry. Clenching my jaw I finish " I just don't know what to do I feel broken inside." I gulp "and no way in hell do I want a therapist."
Colton nods his head "ok it was just a suggestion. Grey, you can't just let one incident set you back for life." I start to interrupt Colton but he continues, probably sensing the anger in my eyes. "Now wait" he puts his hands up in surrender " I'm not saying you should forget about what happened. I'm saying use what happened to make you stronger. You got out of a situation and now your in a semi better one. You just have to think about what you have to do to make yourself even better." Colton finishes his sentence with passion laced in his voice.
Wow I smile to myself s hold in a laugh. I've never seen this caring passionate side of Colton.
I think of what I want to make myself and life better.

I move from the couch and sit on Colton's lap facing him with my arms on either side of him. Leaning in super close so our eyes meet and I can see the small dots of gold floating around in them.
"Well... I want to get a job...." I trace my finger slowly down his cutting jaw. "But most importantly I want my husband to..." my voice trails off and I show him exactly what I want to do by trailing my hand down and sliding my hand around the edge of his dress pants.
"Your wish is my command."
Phew do you feel that? It's really hot in here. No? Ok well of you're not hot yet wait until next chapter. Hope you enjoyed this new chapter. Keep reading lovelies. Follow me if you want. Oh and you know what would be great? You don't?
