Chapter Fifty -Seven Desiree My legs crossed and uncrossed each other with the taste of the food I was experiencing in my mouth.It tasted exactly like takeouts but even more than takeouts. I decided to keep some in the fridge until I was hungry for later. I was filled up already this Monday.I picked up my phone and texted Killian. After a while.I didn't know how to start the text, do I say hey babe, or how are you or happy Monday or I should just go straight to the point.I decided to greet first.“Hi!” .The message didn't get ready immediately but it got delivered.Monday mornings when I still worked at the hotel, I was always grumpy for no reason, it felt like I had no real enough time to rest. The weekend seemed too short and Monday just took it all away.But there I was at home just devoured takeouts and ice cream, one would have thought this life of doing absolutely nothing us great.But that was a huge problem for me. I didn't want to stop been busy Sometimes I could rela
Chapter Fifty-EightKillianI and Raphael decided to head back home after we were done eating.This is what I loved about good company, it makes me not want to check my phone..But I had to check, so I took out my phone and saw that Desiree had already dropped a message. I replied immediately, trying so hard not to smile so Raphael's suspicions wouldn't be confirmed in any way.We drove off home and settled down.“Remember Gwen from high school?” Raphael reminded me and pulled me back into another memory lane.Gwen was his seatmate In high school and they fought almost like they couldn't stand each other's breath.“Yes sure, the one that hated you like a piece of crap!”...He smiled and brought out a piece of envelope and tossed it to me from the table…I glared at him before opening the envelope.I pulled the content of the envelope out l, read it and my brain was doing a whole bunch of calculations…I stood up and just walked off to the bar counter..Raphael burst into laughter…I c
Chapter Fifty-NineDesiree.“What was that?” Lois confronted the moment we got out of the restaurant.“What was what?” I pretended..“Seriously?” .Okay I knew I did her good but was this how she was going to thank me??? By yelling, come on!!!.“Look I don't understand what you think I did, I didn't do anything!” .The amazing part is her and Alex both got along very well, they went bible for the rest of the evening.We boarded an Uber to take us home, the whole ride I could feel her glaring at me like she was about to pull me by my hair and yell in my ears.But I didn't care. I knew she liked Alex and he also did, so why am I the enemy here?“You want some?” I brought some chocolate out of my bag and handed it over to her…She never rejects chocolate ever!!!She stared down at it at first and didn't do anything..But within a second she pulled it from my hand..I laughed so hard that the Uber driver was struggling to concentrate.“That's not funny really!” Lois warned biting down on
Chapter SixtyKillianI woke up feeling the craziest headache ever, I think Raphael's warning is starting to bite me in the ass.Not like this was the first time I was sleeping late.I struggled to get out of bed, and I just kept wondering how I got here. Yesterday I was doing very well and all of a sudden I was getting migraines.The worst ever..Something felt odd with me, I felt I had overSlept, tracing the alarm with my hand with my eyes still closed, I picked it up and checked the time.My eyes shut up instantly..“12:00 Pm!!!!I got out of bed at an insane speed, I was late for work, not like I'm not the CEO already but I had never slept that late!!! The migraine grew worse as I motioned through the house to get dressed for work. I didn't even care. All I wanted to do is set a good example for my employees.I got out of the shower and headed out of my room, while I placed a call to Oliver to come pick me up.“You seem to be in a hurry today, did you sleep well?” Raphael voiced
Chapter Sixty-OneKillianI was half way through the meal when I realised that I was starting to feel weak again but I could still manage myself to go see Desiree. I immediately started packing my stuff.I dispersed Oliver and drove myself to Desiree's place..I got down from the car and walked up to the elevator.My head started to feel very hazy as I was in the elevator.I knocked on the door to her apartment and the door flew open.“Killian, how are you doing?”. She asked, I could faintly see a smile planted on her face.My eyes were getting heavier and heavier and I couldn't keep them open anymore.“I think I'm fine!” I lied walking one step at a time.“You don't look fine!” She countered.“I don't know how I feel!” I accepted.She touched me to check my temperature.“Oh my days you are boiling hot!” I turned around to face her but my knees grew weak and Desiree was able to catch me before I landed on the floor.That was the last thing I remembered.Few hours later..I felt a sof
Chapter Sixty-TwoDesireeI watched as Killian slept off on the couch while I took off his shirt since he was piping hot from the high temperature and denied that he was going to be fine.Only God knows why he doesn't rest as much as he needs to I laid a cold towel on his body and waited for it to regulate his body temperature before I changed it.Which I ended up changing multiple times.My phone rang the moment I decided to head for the kitchen to make him some soup.It was Sylvester, I have been ignoring his calls for ages now and to think that I was the only one home with a sick man in bed, I wouldn't dare pick his calls or even let him know I was home.So Lois had decided to go on another date with Alex. It had been three days since the last one, which wasn't really a date…“Did you get the flowers I got you??” Sylvester texted me some nights ago..“Yes, I did thanks!” Ever since then I hardly replied to his messages.Killian let out another deep sigh in his sleep and I knew h
Chapter Sixty-Three KillianMy heart had never raced faster than it did when I was with her, when I was with Desiree.“My pleasure killian Donovan!”I walked right through that door with her smile the last thing that was waving me goodbye.She's such a wonderful sight to beholdI walked right into the elevator and just recalled moments with her..I inhaled as if her scent would follow me everywhere I went.Planting a kiss on her forehead made me have another chance to take in her scent again. The vanilla and lavender scent never misses.The elevator opened up and I walked through it.I stopped in my tracks in the garage… I looked around and I could send a strange feeling, it felt like I had eyes on me..There were a few cars there and I mentally counted them as I made my way to my car.I had a mental note of the cars counted to be 27..I picked up my phone and began to dial Oliver my chauffeur. I drove my way out of the garage and once I hit the road I was able to reach Oliver.“Good
Chapter Sixty - FourDesiree.Lois had gone back to her place for three days now and I was all alone by myself again, and I was still job hunting, although I had already gotten interviews but I still applied until I was sure I already secured a job..The lacrosse game Killian told me about was in two days. I couldn't wait for it to come already. Seeing someone inviting me to a game I hadn't played in years is like them saving me from my stay at home lifestyle.I added the last touch up to my lips, picked up my bags and dashed out of the house..The sun was doing so much justice to my skin . I walked down the street to get coffee before I headed to my interview.“One cup of coffee please with milk!”I placed my order..There is nothing that is more soothing than sitting and seeing people enjoy and go about their day to day life.In about five minutes my coffee came in just exactly as I wanted it, so I sipped it and headed out of the coffee shop. I flagged down an Uber and left.A few h
