Married to Three (bxb)

Chapter 16- Cat and Mouse (Part 1)

Trigger warning: mention of rape , assault.

I woke up to the sound of my phone buzzing on the bedside table. I picked it up and found Pat's name flashing on the screen. I answered the call with a yawn.

"Wake up Snow White", he said in all Pat tone.

"What do you need Pat?" I asked not in a mood to humour him.

"You", I heard him whisper.

"Pat.. not in mood of jokes" I told him still not amused him calling me so early. Seriously if I will die due to lack of sleep it would be the third triplet to blame.

"Well I want you to know that I have some business to attend so won't be home for a few days", he said clearing his throat awkwardly.

"That's fine Patty, even though I will miss you I will be happy to get good sleep for a couple of days provided you don't call me so early", I said rolling my eyes.

He chuckled at that.

"How can the prince not wake up his sleeping beauty", he mused.

"Well you are no Prince and I am no princess, so don't worry. Just take your sorry ass to work", I chided him.

"You are no fun", I can hear his pout over phone.

"Someone has to be the adult in a relationship", I said trying to sound serious.

"So we are in a relationship, now are we", he teased.

"I am dropping the call Patty", I said blushing and quickly cutting the call.

Pat and his childish talk. It's a good thing Pat can't see my burning cheeks. I know he jokes around but sometimes he really makes me blush with his talks.

I took a shower and got dressed . I went downstairs to have breakfast. I was hoping to catch a glimpse of Adrian since I knew he was around also to unravel the mystery of the person visiting me at night.

Unsurprisingly I did not meet anyone but Tom. Tom asked me if I wanted to eat something of my liking since he was yet to make breakfast but I told him that I will just have cereal and milk. I sat on the counter and ate my cereal making small talk with Tom .

I finished and put the bowl in the sink . As I was stepping in the hall I heard the voice which I loathed the most.

I halted my steps and remained in the kitchen hidden from the view of that person. I seriously did not want to see him so I decided to wait until he leaves.

"Yes Mr. Sandler, the presentation is ready ".

"Okay...".

"This is a last minute information you are providing. You know I hate these kind of things".

He put the phone down and sat on the living room sofa opening his laptop .

Shit. How long will the dog-ass sit there. I can not remain in the kitchen forever, I cursed inwardly.

He worked for few minutes when his phone rang again. He picked it up and stood up while on the line and went to the backyard. Just then an idea clicked to my Gummy bears.

I quickly walked to the table in front of the sofa where he had placed his laptop. A power point presentation was opened in the laptop. I quickly scrolled through the presentation and put my evil plans into action. I quickly inserted few slides with corny jokes and very bold visuals at the beginning of the presentation using some stupid pictures from internet. I was an expert with graphics so it did not take much time, still I kept on checking if David was coming back. Within a few minutes I was done and my Gummy bears were roaring with victory. I quickly left the pointer at the slide on which David was working and climbed up the stairs to my room. I was breathing hard, too excited at the prospect of David being laughed at during his presentation and scared of him finding out that I was the culprit.
