UNTIL I MET YOU : CHAPTER 71 – 80
We walk out of my penthouse and for some awkward reasons she hold my arm like she was gonna trip and fall on her face. I roll my eyes and open the passenger door for her to get in. I’m going through a lot of shit and Sarai is one of the least shit that I want to think about.
“I’m sorry boss..” she sighs and look at me. I didn’t bother to stare. It won’t change a thing.
“It won’t happen again.” She says and fiddle her fingers. Why the fuck is she acting like Ariel. It’s annoying she’s messing with my head.
Kennedy is back and I’m always protective of her.
She’s the only thing that proves my brother once enjoyed life. The kid’s weird sometimes. Likes cursing and likes to shoot a gun. Talks about boys at seven and already likes to party. Fuckin whore mother.
I’d told Nick and the others to look for a babysitter since I can’t leave her alone at home. I can’t risk that. I stop by at a club to meet someone before driving back to my house.
Nick told me the babysitter was here and it’s quite funny Kennedy chose to call him Lucifer. Says he’s mean or whatever kid’s call guys with frequent glares. She ran down the stairs and who i didn’t expect to see was standing few feets from me. Looking so innocent just like always.
“Tinkerbell…” She sighs and meet eyes with me.
Is she the babysitter ? Why ?
“She’s my new best friend and I really like her.” Kennedy murmurs on my arm with her big grin.
“Who’s this ?” Kennedy scowls at Sarai. How could she scowl at this age. Fuck Jhene.
“Hi there..” Sarai greets her. You could tell she doesn’t like Kennedy already. Kennedy doesn’t like her either.
“I don’t like you. You’re too fake and I don’t like blonde’s.” I chuckle at Kennedy’s speech. I like that. We don’t like blonde’s. That’s cute.
“I need to get a fuckin dye.” Sarai mutters and run her hand through her hair.
” Is she the babysitter ?” I ask Nick.
“Yes boss. She…”
“Fuck it Nick. Take Kenny to her room. Reid you should handle Sarai. I need to lend your new best friend.” I kiss Kennedy on her cheek and stalk forward.
I grab Ariel’s hand and lead her upstairs to my room. I shut the door and press her against the door.
“Seriously Gray.. what the hell ? Why are you everywhere ? Do you have a twin or something ?” She mutters and squirm in my grip.
I hold both her arms together at her lower back as she fights to free herself.
“How come you’re the babysitter ?”
“How come she’s related to you ?” She asks.
“She’s my niece. My older brothers kid. Jhene..” she rolls her eyes and fight to remove her hand from my grip.
I sigh and let her go and I turn my back against her. I pull my hoodie above my head and toss it on the couch. My back’s against her as I stare at the environment through the glass walls.
“I’m sorry to have barged in. I wanted a job and Piper hook this one up for me. I didn’t know it got to be related to you.” She murmurs and I picture her fiddling her hands already.
“Do you even miss us ?” I ask her and turn to look at her above my shoulders. Like there was any ‘us’ actually. I’m such a dick.
” I’m just gonna leave. I’m not sure I can handle being Kenny’s babysitter anymore.”
“What ?” I turn to look at her as she rub her nape. She’s nervous again and maybe sad over something.
I reach to her and grab her face. How can she be this pretty ? Nothing seems to make any sense once she’s around me. She’s too tempting and inviting.
“What happened ? You wanted me to leave you alone. And then you link up for a job , you got surprised that your mystery man is associated with it and you wanna abandoned it because of what ?” I ask her. My eyes scan her eyes as they move to her lips. I really wanna kiss her right now.
“I’m sorry I called you bad luck and all that. I was just scared. I don’t wanna get hurt and… I don’t even know. You didn’t even call..” she says calmly.
