14 - Change Of Heart

"So Anja, any ideas for your very first show?" Blair asks as he sips on his latte.

"You're willing to listen to my ideas?"

He laughs lightly. "Of course honey. In this game, we all play a part. We listen to your ideas, we vote and if I like, I say I do."

"Well I was thinking of performing the song from this young brand new artist, poesy. Not only will this bring in money for us but it'll start her career off too. She remade the song but her version is hot, new and different."

"I like how you think. What is the name of the song?" Blair thinks out loud.

"Soldier of love."

"I'll introduce you to our choreographer and the rest of the team, and if you have any ideas whenever, just speak up. We're a family here." he stands up and I follow him.

"Thank you."

*******

After we rehearsed over and over again bit only the first part of the song, it was time to go home.

It's bout 8:30 now and the studio usually closes at 6:00. I stayed the two and a half hours later with Blair.

He was raving about the diamond on my finger, "Darling, who gave you that?"

I laughed as he pointed at the thing on my finger. I don't know why I didn't take it off,"You do not want to know. And even if I told you, you would never believe me."

Why wouldn't he believe me? Because the things I hear about Christopher is horrible.

He is a player. The longest he ever dated someone was three days. Other than that, it's just fucking around. Literally.

" Well, tell me when you're ready. And he's a keeper darling." yeah well too bad he's not really mine.

I mean, it's not like I want him to be mine.

Chris is not home now, I think as I pull in the garage. I lock the door as I exit the garage, taking one last look at the blue beauty.

My blue leather jacket is in my hand and my hair band broke so my hair is in all different directions. It's natural state is wavy but luckily it's thin so no hassle.

My phone rings as I take a slow walk to the front door, "Hello?"

"Hello to you too. I'm surprised you didn't forget me. Or did you?" a very familiar voice trails off. Sam.

"Oh my god. Sam! I miss you so much." i smile. I also miss my bed. I'm so tired.

"You do remember me! How are you Anja?"

"Tired. Literally. How are you?"

She scoffs, "Me? I'm good. I miss you. There's no one to keep me sane. The only on-going memory I have of you is watching Blair's Cover Girls.

I stand in front of the door leaning my back against it, "Yeah? Well, I don't think it's right that I'm enjoying myself over here and you're miserable."

"Enjoying, huh?" I hear the slyness in her voice, "With that hot hunk?"

I gasp and my face flushes red, "Sam! No. I don't even like him. He hates me. I was talking about a job I got."

"You got a job!? That's great." I really do hear the pride on her voice."Where?"

I don't want to tell her just yet, "I'll tell you about that later, tell me...How's Shawn holding up?"

"Shawn...." her voice saddens. "He's taking this real bad Anja. He hasn't shaved since you left. He keeps smelling the scarf that you left at his home. He looks like shit and only eats junk food."

My heart drops at the sound of that and I decide to go in the house, "Sam, I can't talk to him. It's going to hurt him too much."

"And you? Will it hurt you?"

I pull in a sharp breath, "I'm unsure about everything. I really don't know. But please don't tell him I spoke to you. And don't tell him to call me. I don't want to hurt him."

"Anja...." she trails off, "Are you falling for this guy?"

"Sam, of course not, I could never. It nothing like that." I replied way too quickly. My defense walls are up.

She laughs, a real one, "You really are. Even though things are shit at home, I'm so happy for you."

"Sam no! Don't be happy, I mean be happy but not because of that! What the hell?" I frown but it fades as the smile takes over.

I lose that smile when I look up to go up the stairs. A few meters before you get the stairs, a handsome man stands leaning against the wall, a glass of what looks like whisky in his hand.

I get snapped out of staring at him when I hear Sam on the line, "Hello!? Anja!"

"Yes? Wh-what happened?" I stutter, my mouth very dry.

"Aah. That hunk is there isn't he?"

My eyes widen as a blush takes over,"Oh hush you bitch." she laughs profusely, "Well I'll let you get back to him. Bye. And remember to use protection." she sings then cuts the call.

I seriously hope he's half deaf and did not hear that even though the phone wasn't on speaker.

I rush past him up the stairs but don't get far because I get pulled back by him and my back collides with his frront.

" What do you want from me?" I ask him softly, not looking up at him.

"Nothing in specific." he answers.

We are very close, I try to take a step forward but his hold on my waist is too strong but gentle. How does that work?

"Then why are you doing this? Giving me all these things?"

His finger goes to my chin and he makes me look up at him,"You wanted to be treated like my fiance, yes? Yes. That's all I'm doing."

"Not like your fiance. Like you are actually human. Like you can say hi or no thank you." i hit him on his arm that's wrapped around my waist.

He only chuckles, my heart beats faster, "Well you're not my roommate but my fiance. We're going to get married soon. We should rejoice. Did you hear that? We. So from now on, you're my fiance and I'll treat you like it," His hand takes my left one,his hand is soft and big, "I'm glad you're still wearing it." and he let's go.

Why is there a faint smile on my face? I run up the stairs, the somersault in in my stomach not going away. What's next? A tornado in my brain?

What triggered his change of heart?
