Kiss in an elevator

Chapter 30

Lucy's POV

When my break was over, i walked alone back to my office. I still couldn't believe i was stood up, he was the one who brought up the idea yet he didn't show up.

After work, i didn't bother waiting for him to pick me up; i rode the bus home, greeted the man at the lobby and rode the elevator up.

When i walked in, he wasn't home so i ordered sushi. I changed into comfortable cloths and waited for the food.

After eating i kept his box in the microwave and settled in the sitting room to watch TV.

He came back hours later, covered in women's perfume and was looking rough, not in the 'i got into a fight' kinda rough but in the 'i just had sex' kinda rough.

"Lucy, hey, i'm sorry i stood you up, i had important business i had to leave the office for."

Whoa, your important business got you covered in women's perfume, your clothes are rumpled and your hair looks like a bed hair, real important. That was all sarcastic if you missed it.

"I don't really care what you do; i'm just saying you should have called to inform me instead of wasting forty minutes of my time."

"Yh, i'm sorry..."

"But can you explain why you are covered in women perfume with a bed hair and rumpled clothes? After everything you better not tell me you're sleeping around."

"It's not what it looks like, yes i was with a woman but we didn't have sex..."

"Who you fooling dressed and smelling like that?"

"You have to understand, i didn't sleep with her..."

"You did what then?" i interrupted him again.

"The perfume was not hers, it was an accident..."

"Whoa, so you had a threesome, very nice. Your dinner is in the microwave, I'm out of here." I walked out of the sitting room and entered my room locking the door behind me.

How dare he play with my feelings like that, we had a heart to heart a few days back and his off sleeping with different women.

I slept with angry thoughts and i woke up three hours later. I checked the time and it was 2:00 am.

I got my phone and texted Vincent, we spoke every now and then, we even met up recently.

"Hey, are you at work?"

"Yes baby, anything wrong, why you still up?"

"I'm on my way."

"I'll be waiting."

I changed into something comfortable and warm and left my room, picking my keys and coat as i left the apartment.

I left the building and walked all the way to his diner. The little bell welcomed me and i went to my usual seat.

"Hey babe, I'll get our usual, I'll be right back."

He walked away from my table and came back few minutes later with our usual: strawberry milkshake and fries.

"What's up? Is your new roommate giving you any trouble?" he sat down in his seat and took a sip of my shake.

"Not really, just some girl problems, i was jealous because he had sex even though we had something going."

Vincent was aware of the happenings but he doesn't know about either of our pasts, though he is aware i have feelings for him.

Vincent was kind of my bestie, we had mutual friendship feelings towards each other.
