"He's a psychopath! What did you expect?" She screamed.
"I fell in love with that psychopath... I certainly wasn't expecting that." I said, then smiled.

After last night I know I should be sleeping soundly like King is right now, but I'm late for work. I dread even going, knowing I'm gonna have to explain to Gloria and Lila why I'm late and missed so many of their calls. I give him a light kiss and hear him moan my name in his sleep. A heavy wave of a new feeling washes over my entire body. No one has ever cared like he does. No one was ever gentle with me or begged me like he did last night. If I close my eyes, I can still feel his hands on my body. His lips on my lips. Honestly, the more I'm around him the more comfortable I feel with him and more importantly... myself. I look at him sprawled out on the bed. He's so peaceful looking when he sleeps.

I glance at him one more time before gently closing his door and heading downstairs. I see Noah talking with a tall, lanky yet muscular guy with glasses.
"Hey buttercup!" He smiles and gives me a hug.
"Morning." I greet him and return his hug.
"Oh ,this is Declan. He's our tech guy."
"Hello." Declan holds out his hand and I shake it.
"Nice to meet you." I smile and turn back to Noah. "Would you mind giving me a ride to work? King is still sleeping and I don't want to disturb him." Noah looks as though he's contemplating it but he gives in and nods.

After stopping by my house to change into my work clothes and dropping me off at work, Noah told me to stay inside the building and don't leave. Something felt off about the way he said it but I payed no mind and turned to the more pressing issue at hand. I walk in and the place was running slow, only a few customers. Lila was attenting a table, so I went straight to the kitchen to find Gloria. I walk through the door and see her angrily stirring a bowl of brownie mix and mumbling to herself. She turned to grab something but noticed me instead and stopped what she was doing.
"Why the fuck have you been ignoring my calls little missy!? Do you know how worried I've been!?" Gloria hollered, shaking a chocolate batter covered spoon at me. I close my eyes and sigh for what was about to come out of my mouth. I know she's going to overreact and make a huge deal out of it. I'm not big on sharing private information unless it's to my therapist and even then I still don't like it.
"I was with King and I overslept. I'm sorry Gloria." I saw her scowl immediately disappear and a rather large smile took its place.
"Did you finally..." I held up my hand and stopped her.
"We didn't have sex, he just... took care... of me." I smirked hoping she would get the message and not make me say it out loud. She laughed and hugged me tightly.
