CHAPTER 5

I knead the dough as Hazel stood on a small stool, mixing eggs in a bowl. Hazel won't stop chattering, boasting of how she's gonna be a better cook than me when she's all grown up. I sigh and let her chatter, I can do nothing to stop her.

It's been two long weeks since I started working for the Gauthiers. Long enough to know almost everything about the mansion, the maids, the security men and Hazel. The only person I've not been given the slightest chance to know is Gary Gauthier, the demi god in form of human. Since Hazel's room occupies a floor it's almost impossible that I meet him.

Hazel always has a thousand things to do and it keeps me in her apartment all the time. As for Gary, I subconsciously wish I don't have physical contact with him. The few times I did, all I ever do is stutter and act nervous around him. Everything about him is so freaking intimidating. From his killer looks to his scrutinizing gaze.

Hazel Is gradually becoming a part of my routine, so smart and lovable you can't help getting attached. It's saddening that Gary has little time for her, Hazel can't grow up without the love of her parents. No kid would love that, growing up without the happy *parent–child* memories. I would need to talk to him on that.

"Lesley I'm done." Hazel says sliding down the stool. She had told Gary she wants no maid to cook for her again. The maid had only been happy to quit cooking for her, courtesy of her sharp tongue.

"Alright angel, Now pour the eggs into the veggies and mix them together.

"Onn ittt..." She drawls and climbed back on the stool. I smiled as I watched Hazel mix, cute little kid. Tears gathered in my eyes and I wiped it off immediately.

"Lesley is anything wrong?." She asked full of concern.

"No angel.... why do you ask?." I smile and resume kneading the dough.

"There are tears in your eyes Lesley." She asked with concern. I ruffled her hair.

"It's the onions dear." rushed my words out without thinking. Hazel lips twitched in amusement

"You're kneading dough Lesley, we haven't sliced the onions yet." She smirked.

I scratched my hair as Hazel tried to hide her laugh.

"And last I checked, flour doesn't make your eyes water." She taunts, grinning.

"Well.... I guess the onions is giving me a reminder to slice it!" I say and turn to the cabinet. Hazel giggled, I rolled my eyes at her as I brought out the onions.

"Smart ass!." I mutter, shutting it close.

BRIE'S POV

The gates opened and the car drove in. I take a look at this huge mansion in front of me and I couldn't help feeling excited. Goodness!, Gary did make hell of a money while I was away!. It took me a week to garner courage to take a flight to New york and another week to settle in an hotel nearby. The car halts and the driver gets out immediately to open the door. I step out and let in a deep breath. The security men sprawled around so not say a thing, instead they bowed slightly as I walked past them.

I glanced at the huge fountain surrounded with blue glass and smiled as memories of our make out fleeted across my mind. I got inside the mansion and entered the lift, pressing the button for the fourth floor. Its been so long I saw Gary... Fuck!... I can't wait to have him plunge recklessly into me.

I stepped out as the door opened. His P. A widened his eyes as he saw me.. He took out his phone probably to call Gary and alert him of my presence. Before he could dial, I snatched the phone from his grasp and smatched it on the floor, kicking him in between his legs. He groaned doubling over and grabbing his groin as he groaned.

"Asshole! that will teach you never to meddle!." I cuss and quickly punched in Gary's code on the door. I smiled as it clicks open. He hasn't changed it, it's still my birth year. He hasn't really gotten over me then. Oh goodness!.

I turn the knob and stepped into his home office, without locking the door. Gary's raised his head up on hearing the door open. We're staring at each other, Gary looking so shocked to see me. A thrill shot through my entire body as I take in this glory of a man sitting behind the desk. His face turned dark immediately.

"What the fuck!." He barked gritting his teeth. I chuckled as I make my way towards him. He pushed his chair back and try to stand but I quickly held him down. I grabbed his collar as I crashed my lips on his Gosh.... I've missed him terribly. He held my hand and jerked it away from him roughly.

"What the fuck are you doing here Brie!." He snarls, bounding of the chair and taking some steps back. I smirked as I bite downy lips. Goodness!, I've been so stupid to have left him.

"I let myself in munchie.. fuck I've missed you." purr as I stride to him. I pulled off my long ankle length jacket and I'm clad only in my panties and bra. Gary pauses and I watched him rake his eyes down my body, another thrill sizzled through me. Damn he missed me too!.

GARY GAUTHIER'S POV

I rake my eye up and down her body in disgust. Who does she fucking think he is, the old Gary?. She's fucked up. That Gary is gone for good. I scoffed and let out a bitter laugh.

"I've seen sluts who are more curvier than you Brie." I guess that hit her hard cos she sucked in her breath.

"what gave you the impression that I'd be pleased to stare at your doll like body after so much years huh!?" I fist my palm angrily.

"Gary..." She started but I cut her off with a death glare.

"Put on your fuckin clothes, walk out that door and never come back. You know me, I don't deal with old toys." Brie scoffed and she began putting her jacket back on.

"I know you haven't gotten over me Gary, you'd surely beg to have me na m like you did before." A muscle twitched in my jaw at the memory.

"I have Brie in ways you could ever imagine." I say calmly- icily.

"Last I checked you haven't gotten a new pussy for yourself." She smirked. There was a knock at the door.

"Come in." I blurt, grateful for the distraction. A cute brunette walked in, Hazel's Nanny. Suddenly a thought crossed my mind. I walked over to her and pulled her close to me. I whispered quickly into her ears.

"Play along please." I say desperately and I pressed my lips against hers. She tensed for aebut relaxed after some moments. Guess she's an actress cos she returned the kiss back and damn her lips tastes great. She pulled off after some moment and I turned back to see Brie frozen to her spot.

"I hope that answers your question Brie." I raise my brows as I watched her face cloud in anger. She stared daggers at the brunette before she stomped out. I slumped on the couch as I stared at the brunette who had different expressions on her face.

LESLEY PERKINS' POV

No!, this can't be happening. Gary Gauthier just fucking kissed me!. Some few minutes ago I wanted to talk to Gary about his relationship with Hazel.

I entered to see Gary with a lady, more like a plastic doll, they seemed to be arguing and then Gary comes over to me and tells me to play along.

And then kissed me... He fucking KISSED me!. He's slumped on his couch like nothing just happened while my legs are jelly and my heartbeat as increased ten folds.

"I'm sorry about that Miss Perkins." He raked his hair in embarrassment. I couldn't reply. I just stand in front of him like I'd forgotten my tongue at home.

"I know I took you by surprise but that was the only way I could get rid of her." He says and pointed at the closed door. I open my mouth to talk but shut it back when no words come out.

He stands and walk over to where I am, staring down at me. We lock gaze for some second before his eyes travel down my face resting on my mouth, he leans in, dangerously close. it seemed I've lost control over my legs cos they don't seem to be working any longer.

The door opens that instant and someone gasps. I came alive then. I moved backwards as I glanced at the door to see Hazel, with a huge smirk on her face. Gary ran his hand through his hair.

"Umm, is it okay if I borrow Lesley for a while Dad I promise it's just five minutes and she would be back and you can continue whatever you where doing." She said and she grabbed my hands. I followed her out. Okay I don't think I'm gonna forget this scenario in a while.

GARY GAUTHIER'S POV

"Fuck!" banged the table in frustration. What the fuck just happened. First Brie comes in unexpectedly and we argue. Then the nanny comes in. I kiss her to pretend she was my new girl. Then Brie angrily left, I apologized to the nanny and she never replied me. I walked over to her to apologize again but no... I was fucking staring at her lips, wanting to kiss her again. I walked over to my cabinet and poured myself a glass of strong drink. It's what I need now.

Funnily enough I can't seem to get the kiss out of my head. Her lips, they felt so soft and inviting, I couldn't even get a hold on myself. And why the fuck did Carly let her in.

I pressed the button on the table as Carly walked in, limping. Shit!, that explains why he didn't informed me of her arrival. I let out a sigh.

"Take the day off Carl, Brie is a bitch, Sorry about that."

"Thanks boss." He says and limped out. I sat down on the office chair as I booth on my laptop. I'm so changing the password to my office door. Brie is never gonna barge in here in like she did.
