Bodyguard

Chapter 2

Eleni's POV

''Oh, now you're going to the kitchen?'' I ask the man behind me.

''Well, It's my job to follow you everywhere you are going. So yes.'' Aidon says

I reach the kitchen and open the door. Mrs. Jones's back is turned towards me. Her red hair is pinned up into a bun and she hums a silent melody as she sways her hips to the music on the radio. Once Aidon closes the door behind us, Mrs. Jones jumps slightly and turns her smiling face to us. '' Eleni, what can I do for you?''

''Hey Addison. Could you make me some eggs and bacon please? I'm starving.'' I groan.

She chuckles and walks over to the stoves and turns them on. I sit myself on the counter and take out my phone. I answers some messages till I feel a presence next to me. I look to my left and jump a bit when I see Aidon directly besides me.

''Is something wrong?'' I ask him.

''No. I just want to get to know you a bit more, since we're probably going to spend a lot of time together.'' he smiles. His dimples clearly visible.

''Well, what do you-'' I start to talk the same times as Addison turns around a places the finished breakfast in front of my face.

''There you go princess.'' she smiles brightly and continues with her work from before.

I jump from the counter and shout a ''thank you'' over my shoulder while I walk out of the big kitchen with a plate of fresh eggs and bacon in my hands.

''So, Mrs. Jones is allowed to call you by your name?How come?'' Aidon asks me.

''She is like a second mother to me.'' It's true. Whenever my mother hadn't time for me she was always by my side. She played with - and cared for me even tho I had a nanny.

''You know. You can call me by my name too. I don't like being called 'princess' at home.'' I tell him.

''Well if thats so. I'll call you Eleni from now on.'' he smiles at me.

We reach the living room again and I sit on the long table to eat my breakfast. Aidon takes the chair across and stares at me.

''Why are looking at me that way?'' I say, snapping him out of his trance.

''I was just wondering why you're so friendly to me all the sudden. Two hours ago you didn't seemed to like me at all.'' I'm a little caught off guard by his answer. I can't even tell myself why I acted that way.

''I guess I just wasn't so fond of the idea, and still aren't, that someone watches me the whole day but after the speech my father gave me, the reality hit me and I should be grateful for the afford my parents but into protecting me.''

He doesn't answer. I finish my breakfast in silent and stare at the big clock. It is currently 11am and I'm bored out of my mind. I look across the table to Aidon and see him on his phone. I think for a second before I start to talk.

''Do you think we could go to the mall? I'd like to go shopping.''

He looks up from his phone and lays it on the table.

''Sure why not. If it's that what you want'' he shrugs.

I leave my plate on the table and stand up.

''I need to grab my coats first.'' it's about 41°F and I definitely do not want to catch a cold.

He nicks his head and walks out of the living room after me.
