Bully. (On Hold)

R-Ryan?!!

-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

Ryan was speaking to one of his colleagues as the door was pushed open and his eyes fall on me.

He takes in my appearance then his eyes widen.
"Holy shit! MATT?!!" my serious facade breaks away as I smiled,half grinning.

"Yeah...." I said awkwardly as he walked over to me and I stand up in just in time for him to pull me in a tight hug.

"The hell midget?you were always shorter than me. The hell have you been doing?" he says and I pat his back awkwardly as I had to lean my head down slightly to hug him.

He breaks the hug, he looks a lot like Roman,
His unkept messy hair, his sky blue eyes as he stared into my light hazel brown ones.

"I missed you man" he says and I blushed seeing as we weren't alone.

Ryan gives me a look and I can't decipher it.
Something like, adoration?

"What are you doing here?" He asks and I cleared my throat.

"Well?we were hoping to hire your construction company and architectural department for a new building we're setting up here. I'm here on behalf of my uncle to sigh the papers, buy the land and make alliance,whatnot, perhaps even get the building started if possible before I go back home" I said as he gapes at me.

"No way,you're Mr Scarlatti?" He asks and I nod.

"Yeah.... Me and my colleagues are here on business for a few weeks" I said giving him the hint that we're not alone by nodding at Roy's amused eyes on me.

Jerk.

"Right. Right, uh well, let's get started then Mr Scarlatti" he says with a hint of teasing in his tone.

"Please. Its just Matthew" I said as Freddie narrows his eyes at me, Roy gives me a raised eyebrow look and Dean just stares at me like there isn't anything else to do.

Ryan blushed from the corner of my eyes as we sat around the round table starting our discussions accompanied by lunch and dessert....

So turns out,Ryan is now an architect with his own construction company which we're going to be working with.

"Nice doing business with you" I told Ryan as he blushed and shook my hand.

"Wait for me downstairs" I told my three guards as they nodded leaving.

"Not married?" He asks referring to my empty ring finger.

Engaged actually....

I wanted to say but decided not to.

"No, ....not yet" I said bluntly.
I wasn't technically lying here, I wasn't married... Yet

"I was hoping we can hang out sometime. Y' know , to catch up? " Ryan asks and I nodded only then do I realize,I'm still shaking his hand.

"Yeah. I'd like that very much" I said as we walked out of the dining booth as we walked back to the first floor where some people are having dinner.

"I have another meeting with a client around here" I said as he nodded.

"Same. When can I see you again?" He asks with a slightly pink tint on his cheeks.

"Um....I....This Friday. I'm free Friday afternoon. We can meet here unless you want me to come pick you up at your house?" I said it like a question.

"Apartment. And yeah,that would be great if you come picked me up. Like,8 ish?" He asks and I nod.

"8 is fine. I have to go now" I don't realize what I've done until I leaned over and pecked his cheek, my arm around his side over his rib side.

He blushed as he leaves.

Holy fuck!why did I do that?
