I wasn't out for long and I knew it because we were still driving in the car. I sat up slowly ignoring my pounding head to look out the window. We were going in a direction I have been before but I'm not sure where. I guess I had been racking my brain too long and the driver noticed.
"Look whose woke." He said slyly looking through the rear view mirror. I looked up at the mirror and rolled my eyes.
"You roll those eyes of yours a lot." I wonder why Boss wants you. He said.
"Boss?" I asked knowing that phrase all to well.
"Yeah Boss. You'll find out soon." The guy in the passenger seat said smirking.
I rolled my eyes once again and now my mind put two and two together. We were headed to Alex's house and "Boss" is Alex. I grew angrier by the second knowing this asshole got me kidnapped.
"Where the fuck is my clutch?" I asked looking around the back seat.
"You'll get it when we arrive where were going." The one in the passenger seat said.
"This bullshit here." I said throwing my arms in the air and dropping them to my sides. I sat back in the seat and crossed my arms thinking of what I was going to do to Alex when I got to this house.
Five minutes later we pulled up to the gates, they were let in and pulled up to the front of the house. They got out of the car and came around to open the door for me. I got out and they grabbed an arm each but I shook them off.
I walked up the stairs to the door and went straight in. I heard footsteps behind me and they came running through the door.
"ALEX MASON ACONE!!" I yelled. The two men came rushing to my side but stopped when they realised I said there Bosses name.
"IF I HAVE TO CALL YOU AGAIN IM GONNA FUCK YOU UP!!" I yelled again. He came walking down the stairs not a second later. He walked down looking directly at me with lustful eyes.
When he reached the bottom of the stairs he nodded his head dismissing the two men.
"Nope I want them to stay." I said looking him in his eyes. They hesitated for a minute then looked at him for confirmation. He looked at them as if he would kill them if they didn't move, which made them walk off and opposite directions. He turned his eyes back to me and reached for my hand.
"Don't touch me." I said pulling my hand back and taking off my heels.
"Ashanti listen-" I cut him off mid sentence.
"No you listen I'm done with you, I don't want you and I want nothing to do with you. I don't know why you thought getting somebody to kidnap me would be right. And its not, you don't fucking get it do you. I want to be alone, nothing more nothing less." I said to him.
"Well if you wanted to be alone why did you go out tonight? Hmm dressed the way your dressing. What the fuck are you dressed like a slut for?" He yelled walking towards me and grabbing my arm. I snatched my arm out of his hand and slapped him.
"Fuck you." I said. He looked at me shocked and hell I was shocked I slapped him too.
His eyes turned pitch black literally and he raised his hand ready to slap me. I flinched back and held my hands up to stop him. I waited to feel the slap but nothing. I waited longer thinking time slowed but still nothing.I let my hands down and looked at him. He had dropped his hand as well and hurt was written all over his face. We stood there unmoving, looking at each other ; me secretly hoping he wouldn't hit me. He walked closer to me and pulled me into his chest. Causing me to cry afraid he was about to do something.
"Baby I'm sorry. I didn't mean it I was just upset. I'm so sorry. I love you and I don't know why I would even think about hitting you." He said while rubbing my back and squeezing me tighter.
I broke down crying even harder. I must admit I love this man and he's my everything but he hurt me in more then one way. I want to forgive him I do its just my mind won't let me.
Growing up I vowed that if a man put his hands on me I would leave and never look back. I had never thought that leaving would be the hardest part when I was younger. My heart won't let me, and he knows that I know that.
He picked me up bridal style and carried me up the stairs. He layed me on a bed and put a blanket on me, he turned to walk out and I stopped him.
"Can-nn you st-aay w-itth me?" I asked him through my crying. He closed the door and turned around to lay with me. Pulling me close to him so that I was laying on his chest. I cried myself to sleep trying to fight myself to forgive him but I kept finding ways not too.
~NEXT MORNING ~
I woke up and Alex was still laying next to me but he wasn't asleep. He was just laying there staring at me and he didn't stop when I caught him.
"Can I have my face back?" I asked jokingly.
"I'm sorry. I just don't want to let you go but I know you want to leave." He said turning and looking up at the ceiling.
I hesitated before I spoke but I knew I had to say it.
"I- I'll ........ I'll stay." I said. Rubbing small circles on his chest.
"You'll stay?" He asked shocked still not looking at me.
"That's what I said didn't I?" I said to him smiling. He layed there for a few more seconds processing what I said then he hopped up and got on top of me. He wasted no time on pushing his lips on mine. Kissing me passionately like its what he was waiting to do. He pulled away breathless and looked me in the eyes.
"Let me make love to you?" He asked not breaking eye contact. I nodded my head yes and he smiled.
~3 long long hours later
"This might be the best day of my life." I said pulling up my jeans.
"Trust me baby it gets better." Alex said walking up behind me and kissing my neck.
"Oh it does?" I asked turning around and wrapping my arms around his neck.
"Yes it does. It hasn't even started yet." He said wrapping his arms around my waist and pulling me closer.
"When does it start then?" I asked pecking his lips softly.
"When I get to put a mini me in you." He said kissing me after like I did him.
"Well let's hope that happens soon huh?" I asked him.
"Yes." He said leaning in for another kiss but someone knocked on the door interrupting us. Alex groaned and let go of my waist causing me to remove my arms around his neck.
"WHAT!!" He yelled causing his voice to make a booming sound through out the room.
"Uh Boss? Breakfast is uh ready." Somebody said sounding nervous. Alex put his hand on his face rubbing it in frustration.
"We'll be down in a minute." He said lower than before. I put my hands on his shoulders and massaged them a little.
"Baby why are you so mean to them?" I asked.
"Its not being mean when your doing your job. I have to be like that around them at all times this business is no joke." He said clenching his jaw.
"Okay "big bad wolf" I won't ask you anymore. You can go down and eat so I can go home?" I asked him letting go of his shoulders and putting on a t- shirt. He turned around with a confused look on his face.
"I thought you were going to stay?" He asked.
"I am I just need to go take my final for school at 2:30. I promise I'll come back, you can even sit and wait for me." I said slipping on some flats. He looked down at his phone and then back up at me.
"Uhh baby its 1: 26." He said looking at me with wild eyes.
"Shit! If we don't leave now I'll never make it." I said frantically.
"Let's go then." He said walking out of the room. I followed close behind nervous but excited. This test was the start of a new life for me and I can't wait for it to change, whether I fail or pass.
