Chapter 8
Serenity
“Fuck, I hate these heels,” I said out loud, as if someone was going to respond to my issues. I walked over to my laptop to see if I have any missed emails. Nothing. I was still irritated about the fact that I was being forced to take a vacation. Maybe I could look up things to do around here or get a hold of Allie and see if she had any ideas since I didn”t see her tonight. I kind of ran out of the party after my mystery man left. I was kind of bored and secretly hoping Theo would call me.
Sadly, I was sitting here thinking about how he made me feel with that one kiss and was very surprised that he grabbed my ass, but I was definitely not complaining. I heard vibrating and felt confused about where it’s coming from, then look over at my clutch.
“Shit.” I forgot that I had turned the sound off on it when I went to the party. I was trying to be cautious in case someone was calling me. That”s a funny one, because who the fuck was going to call me? It’s not like I had a lot of friends. I have always had a hard time making friends.
I was told that my control issues made it hard for chicks to get along with me and I just didn”t have time for boys. I wish that I had girlfriends to just call and gossip with. Sometimes, I really hate the person that I have become and wish that I could change who I am, but what good would that do? I shook the thoughts away and realized that I was rambling in my head and my phone was still going off. I got up and walked toward my clutch and took my phone out.
Unknown caller.
Shit, I just missed it. Maybe it was my mystery man, and I just missed his booty call. Chuckling to myself, I put my phone down and walked toward the window and looked down at the street, wondering where he was. He definitely intrigued me and made me curious for more. I reached back and grabbed the zipper of my dress to pull it down, but then heard the vibrating again. I paused and turned to go grab my phone a little faster this time.
Unknown caller again.
I hesitated for a second to answer it. Fuck it.
“Hello?”
No answer.
All I heard was heavy breathing. If I was a normal chick, this should probably freak me out, but nope definitely not normal over here.
“Hello? Are you going to talk or just sit here and get off on hearing me talk?” I said, probably a bit harsher than I should have.
“Hi,” he said quietly. Well, that’s something I guess, but I still can’t make it out if it’s him or not.
“Can I help you with something?” More heavy breathing. This guy was laying it on hard.
“Okay, since you don’t want to talk, I’m going to let you go.”
I don’t have time for this. I have to get to bed because I have that case in the morning, so we needed to move this along.
“Did you feel it too?” he said.
Yup, that’s his voice. Shit, he even sounds hot over the phone.
“What do you mean?” I said, a bit confused. I went over to bed and laid down, waiting for him to speak again. There was a heavy sigh.
“Between us. Did you feel it or not?” He sounded so serious with his tone.
What do I say, ‘Yea of course I wanted to fuck you in front of all those people.’ Yea, I think not.
“Maybe you should come over and see.” I’m not sure what’s going to come from this, but we could see where it went.
Again, no talking, just heavy breathing, but I would be lying if I didn’t think it was kind of hot.
“All right, mister. If silence is what you’re into, I have to let you go. I have a big case tomorrow and need to sleep.” Maybe he was too good to be true. Damn.
“You didn’t answer the question.” What was up with this guy? He was stuck on me just answering him. It was like he was on repeat. Fuck it.
“Yes, I felt something. Are you happy now?” I wasn’t going to lie, but I was starting to get annoyed because I didn’t understand what game this guy was playing.
“So you wanted to fuck me?” Wow, now he was getting straight to the point. Interesting turn of events.
”Look who’s being forward.” I tried to think about what to say next because he just caught me off guard.
”You didn’t answer the question.” Now he was being kind of a dick. Which okay, not even going to lie, I’m kind of into but shit.
”And what would you do about it if I said yes? Would you bring yourself over here and show me what you got?”
There you go, girlfriend, give it to him strongly, I told myself and silently patted myself on the back. Then again, I had this weird feeling that I hoped I was not scaring him away.
”Goodnight.”
Then the phone went dead. What the flying fuck! Did he just say goodnight and hang up on me? What the hell was this guy’s problem? I felt my face go instantly hot, but I couldn’t fight the feeling that it turned me on all at the same time. This fucktard rejected me and I actually told him that I felt something when I kissed him. What was his deal? I put my hands on my face and tried to relax because he had me all sorts of worked up now.
I got up and took my dress off and grab a large tee shirt. I changed and headed to the bathroom and looked at myself in the mirror.
”Fuck him!” I said to myself in the mirror. I had never let a guy get under my skin the way he had. Why was that? Why was he making me so crazy? I angrily grabbed my toothbrush and toothpaste and started to brush my teeth. I heard my phone vibrate once. I really needed to turn my sound back on. I finished and walked out and grabbed the phone and walked to the bed. I slipped under the covers and opened my phone.
Unknown- I’ll see you soon Serenity.
Are you fucking serious? This guy must be bipolar or something. I stared at the message and something inside me knew that this wouldn’t be the last time that I heard from him.
