The elevator dings as we booth enter the penthouse. The whole way back was so silent you could here a pin drop. Damien just goes to the living room to turn on the tv while I put my jacket down and take my shoes off. "shit!" Damien yells as I'm walking over to see TMZ talking about the freak out earlier. Today while in time square the play boy billionaire Damien Knight and his fiancé had got into a scuffle with a tourist. The two got stuck in a mob of tourists when a fan shoved a phone in Damiens face to take a picture. Damien proceeded to yell at the women and called her out. Here is a video of what went down. A video popped up on the screen of Damien yelling furiously at the women from earlier. My  stomach sunk and nerves racked my body, the fear was evident on the women's face. So guys what do you think of what happened, should Damien kept his cool or was he in the right. Two men pop up on the screen and start to talk about their views on what happened. To be honest I feel like it could have been handled a little better. To me that's not a surprising reaction, you guys remember when he got into a fight with a guy at a club in Miami. I do agree with him in a way though...because it's just disrespectful to shove a phone in someone's face. But what caught my attention was when he called Isabella Wood who is a very beautiful women if I might add...that she was his wife. There hasn't been any news of a wedding or marriage proposal?  The tv screen turned black as Damien turned it off. I never thought my stomach could sink lower than it already had, but once those words left his lips my mind filled with panic. There going to find out! Damien grabs his phone and angrily dials a number. "Janice! Get me on the phone with the media and contact my lawyer if anything happens. I'm heading over to the office." Damien rushes past me and heads up stairs slamming his bedroom door shut. I here shuffling and grunts of annoyance as I sit at the bar looking out at the sky line. Grey clouds start to cover the sky turning the weather from sunny to gloomy. I turn as I hear footsteps rushing down the stairs. I see Damien dressed in a button up in a casual business suit. "Bella I would get on the phone with your parents. This might turn into a shit show." He says as he turns to me while fixing his tie. I stand up and walk over to help him "I will" I say pushing his hands away and fixing the tie. I look up at him to only be met with his icy orbs. "Damien" I say in a soft tone "hm" he reply's while looking deeply into my eyes "please be careful. Don't do anything irrational I know your more than capable of doing the right thing but please don't do anything risky" I say as the nerves get to me and my eyes well up with tears. "Bella..." he says giving me a look of worry "you don't have to worry your pretty little head about that. While I'm gone just relax and let everything go. Nothing is going to happen to us, the media won't find out about the arrangement." He says holding my shoulders "look...here's something to cheer you up, remember the first time we met when we were little" I he says giving me a reassuring smile "you where I think four and I was six at the time? You were wearing a cute light pink dress and tiny little heels. You had your hair done and you had just lost your two front teeth. Don't worry I'm not a creep I just remember that because you proudly told my mom about it. You shyly introduced yourself as you hid behind your dads legs. I thought you were a little strange and didn't really want to talk to you but my dad had forced me to introduce my self to you. Little did I know that shy but spunky little girl would be my fiancé" he says laughing. I remember the first time we met but over the years I forgot about him. I remember my dad telling me that his mom and dad had gotten into a car accident and passed away "I remember...you were quite the gentleman at the time with your little blue button up, Kakis, and slicked back hair. You had pulled out my chair so I could sit next to your mom. Your mom and dad where the kindest people I had ever met. I remember after I had gotten into a fight with my parents I had said I wished I could live with your mom and dad. Your mother was a gentle soul who used to tell me stories when she came over to have tea with my mom. But when I found out about the accident I felt horrible. I felt like I lost a loved one, I'm sorry you had to go through that. But here is a promise to your mom...I will look after you and do what's best for you no matter what happens" I say whispering the last part. I look up to see Damien looking at me in shock, and before I know it he smashes his lips onto mine.
