"Come, lets get you something to eat" Adi suggested, putting a hand on my back and guiding me forward slightly

"But the cafeteria is shut" I faced him slightly

"And I have the keys" he raised his hand up waving it between us "It will be our little secret" he pressed the lift button, holding his arm out for me to get in first

As soon as he pressed the button for the third floor, the lift jolted making me fall into him, his hands gripped my waist tightly to steady me

I looked up at him as he huffed "Theres no way were getting out of here tonight, everyone is at home, we should have took the stairs"

I laughed "Well lucky for you, you have some top class company", I took a second to inhale, he always managed to smell so good, and this was a small space which made it very hard to avoid anything about him

Suddenly he turned me around, pushing me against the wall, his hands above my head "While I have you alone, I want to ask you something" his voice suddenly sounded very husky, making my heart beat faster

But I wanted to remain calm and collected "And you had to have me up against a wall to do that"

Adi smirked "No, I just like this position"

I scrunched up my face, I really didnt have a reply to that one

He let out a breathy chuckle "Have I made the great Ziddi Zoya speechless"

"Pfft, no" I guffawed, but it seemed pointless because it was already clear he had "So what do you want to ask me" I looked over his shoulder, trying not to gaze into those beautiful brown eyes that haunted me all the time

His eyes wandered over my face, before he raised his hand to my chin, turning me to face him "At the party you said I was good looking, is that all you think about me"

"Youre uh eye candy, thats it, what else would I think about you Mr Big Shot" I glanced down at his fingers trailing down my arm

"See Zoya, I think you like me"

"Sure, you're a good boss"

He shook his head "No Zoya, I think you like me as more than a friend, I think you have for a while"

"Well, you thought wrong, now as great as this position is, im uncomfortable, so excuse me" I shoved at his arm

"No"

"No" I repeated "What do you mean no"

"I would like to test something Zoya" he lowered his head slightly

My eyes shut on their own accord as I felt his nose skim across my neck, his hands pulled my hips forward allowing me space to throw my head back. I felt his lips press against my neck, down to my shoulder, then back up again. I let out as a gasp as he nipped at my skin making him chuckle, then run his tounge across my collar bone

"Adi, I" but that seemed the only two words I could get out. He had completley clouded my senses. All I could focus on was his lips on my neck, his hands on my waist and his body pressed up against mine. "Adi" I breathed out, hot and flustered

"Yes Zoya, you're going to have to be a lot more clearer about what you want, feel free to keep saying my name though" he smiled against my neck

I shoved him back "I want you to stop, you cant just kiss me when we're alone, im not like every other woman who will follow you like a lost puppy"

He grabbed my arm, pulling me to him "I know you're not like every other woman, and thats what I like about you, and I didnt kiss you, this is kissing you" he kissed my lips softly then stepped back, my knees still wobbling

"Look, just forget that ever happened and dont do it again" I sat down, watching as he sat directly opposite me

"Why, you and I both know that you like me Zoya, so what's the issue here"

"The issue is, im not like the other women you are seen around with, I dont know how to be quiet like they do, ill always voice my opinion, I am loud and outspoken, I laugh like a witch and swear like a sailor, I dont make extra effort with my appearance and I am not as skinny as those women either, nor am I anywhere near as beautiful" I huffed

"But I like all of that about you, I think you're beautiful, I dont know who made you think youre not but"

"There was a girl, in high school, we were best friends, one day she woke up and decided I wasnt good enough for her, that was the day my whole high school experience turned rubbish and I learnt if youre not rich, if youre not beautiful then most people wont respect you, so dont tell me that you like me because of how I act, its only because im different and one day youre going to get bored of me and then I will get hurt again"

"I dont think I could ever get bored of you" he raised his hand, his thumb ran across my bottom lip "I dont know who this girl is, but she was stupid, and I'm not the kind of guy to go for money and looks anyway, though on the looks section, you are exactly my type, and if you could see the looks all these men in the office give you, then maybe you'd understand that you're something special, and I knew if I didnt speak to you, one of them would and I am just not happy with the thought that you could be dating another guy"

I laughed "No guys look at me, its your imagination" I shook my head

"Oh Zoya, you're so innocent sometimes" he moved closer to me "I am attracted to you, and youre attracted to me, I like your personality and I hope you like mine, because all of this is going to be really embarasssing otherwise, but how about you just let me take you out to dinner"

I really wanted to continue to be annoyed at him, but who was I kidding. He was amazing in every way and literally the man I dreamed off. Plus, I could hear Noor in my head cheering me on. "Fine, one dinner,not one of those fancy places"

I squeeled as he pulled me into his arms, putting his blazer over me "Sh, go to sleep" he ordered, which can I say made him sound about 5000000 times hotter *gushes*

I could feel his hand massaging my scalp, my eyes closed quite quickly, it had beeb a very long day. The last thing I recalled was him kissing my hair before I was asleep

I heard the lift doors chime open, camera flashes blinding me as I stood up. Adi glanced over at me, then at the papparazi

"Who called you here"

"Zoya Siddiqui did, she called in to say she was going to have a juicy storyline, and she did not dissapoint" one laughed

Before I could reply Adi stormed off, leaving me in the exact position I was afraid of being in. All alone.

Now Zoya's mystery is out, will Adi trust her? Who called the paparazzi?
