His Girl

chapter 66

Harper
It had been 3 days since the incident where I accused James of kidnapping me, I had no idea about my past and the more I thought about it, james hadnt told me much about himself so I got suspicious and accused him.

Luckily we cleared things up after breakfast and he explained a bit about my past.

Now three days later I'm sat with max and this girl, I think her name was jess. Max wanted me to meet her, she seemed nice so far.
"We should definitely hang out without any guys sometime" she says and I nod in agreement. If it wasnt james or max it was Logan or Ethan, of it wasnt them it was guards.  "Yeah definitely" I agree.
"I'm going out"
We all turn and see a drunk looking james. For the past 3 days he had been drinking tons, he went out around 3pm and wouldnt get home till 10am the next day and when at home he was in his room, probably resting cause of the hangover, hes no doubt suffering from.
"Are you sure thats a good idea" max asked and james glared "of course I'm sure, I need to get over it, its never going to happen so I might as well forget it and just hook up" james slurred and Max's face dropped and have him a pity smile
"So your answer to everything is get drunk and get a STD" jess said rolling her eyes. Max laughed at what she said making james even more annoyed.
"Shes right, it isnt the answer" I say and he glares at me, a dark look places his face, like he was planning my murder.
He didnt say anything instead he walked out.

James
Good friends. Good fucking friends. That wasnt what I wanted, I wanted to be with her, maybe before I could have been good friends but now after knowing what a relationship with her was like I didnt want anything else.
3 days passed and each day I left and got drunk. I never hooked up with a girl though as even in this state i didnt want to hurt her.

The night passed and by 2am I was completely wasted, I could barely stand, damn this was the worst I've gotten. Deciding that it was unsafe to drive, I called a cab and had the driver take me home.

The guards watched as a stumbled in, probably debating on whether or not they should help. One of them comes forward
"Do you want some help boss"
I rolled my eyes at his statement. Help? I dont need help from no one.
I glared at him and began making my way to my room, I fell a ton of times but after 40 minutes I finally made it to my room.
Darkness consumed me as I felt myself fall.

Harper
It was morning and I had walked out my room to go make breakfast  only to find the hallway and stairs a mess, there was items that looked to have been knocked on the floor, on one step was a shoe whilst on the railing there was a tie. My guess was, james got extremely drunk last night.
He will probably have a hangover right now and because he seems to be annoyed with ne I might as well make him breakfast to ease his annoyance.

I finally finished making breakfast, I ate mine whilst making his. I put it on a tray, poured his coffee and put some medicine on the tray that would help with his hangover then took it up.

Why was I even doing this?

Because you like him

I shake that thought out my head, he was just a friend.

He doesn't answer when I knock so I walk in, he is laid on the bed, sprawled out with the clothes, or what's left of the clothes he was wearing last night. I set the tray down on his bedside table and decide it's best not to wake him.
As I'm about to leave, I hear him groan which makes me turn back around. He now has a pillow over his head
"this is what death feels like then"
I couldnt help but laugh at his statement which he suddenly sots up, groaning as he does so. He looks straight at me, clearly in pain "what are you doing in here" he asks. "Well I figured you were hungover so I brought you medicine and breakfast" I say and point to his tray.
He looks sceptical but nods. "Thank you"
"I'm gonna go" I quickly say and before he can even say anything I leave.

James
My head was pounding,  I'm never drinking again.
Or maybe I should get drunk more often so she will care for me.
Fuck that's insane.
She left before I could stop her but I decided not to dwell on it and instead I started to eat my breakfast and take the medication. The fact that she did this for me, made me start to think about the possibility of her liking me.

She only sees you as a friend

Friend. How I hated that word right now. I knew it would be best for me to move on but I couldnt. The next best thing though was to surround myself in work,  so with that in mind I took out my phone to check my calendar. I had 2 back to back meetings for gun shipments and enemies.
Just great.
I shouldnt have got do drunk last night, these meetings are gonna be torturous.
