Chapter Two

Isabella’s Point of view

​

Lucas? Such a lame name for someone who is as handsome as he is. I knew this type that always seemed to be the hotshot; I need to mind the way I respond to him.

​

“Did I ask for your name? I don’t remember doing that?” I said raising my eyebrows as he scoffed looking at me from head to toe.

​

He started grinning from ear to ear, “I thought you asked me who I was” He said to me, his smile drew me closer, I could hear my heart fluttering. I couldn’t believe that I was feeling like this about someone.

​

“Should I give you a ride home?” He questioned me and I chuckled. Was he being serious? > What if he just wanted to fuck me and then leave?

​

“I am not a hooker. I will find my way home just like how I made it here” I Said to him and I was about to walk away but stopped turning to look at him.

​

“Just so you know that your looks won’t get you laid every time” I said to him as his mouth fell wide open. He couldn’t believe that I had just said that to him. I am certain he expected me to compliment him, but I didn’t.

​

“Hey Wait!” He rushed in front of me, blocking my way as I swallowed hard. He was crazy. What the hell was he doing?

​

He walked closer to me as I took a step back, the moonlight of the night shined upon him I couldn’t even move.

​

“What?”

​

“Nothing, I just wanted to take in your beauty so that next time I meet you I will recognize you,” He said to me, making me choke on my own saliva. He was won’t really a smoother talker.

​

“You really don’t give up, do you?” I questioned him and he shook his head, “I don’t. Now how about that ride?” He said as I sighed heavily looking at him.

​

“Fine! But I am taking a picture of your number plate and send it to my friend so that in case anything happens to me your will be caught,” I said to him and he laughed. What was so funny about what I said?

​

“Deal. Actually, you can take even a picture of me” He said to me as I rolled my eyes. He was really trying to get on my nerves, but I would not have it.

​

“Fine!” I said to him. He gestured with his hand where his car was as I started walking ahead of him.

​

I could feel he was eyeing me behind but I didn’t stop in my tracks I just went ahead until he started talking behind me.

​

“So, where’s your house?” He questioned me after we got in the car, The way he looked took me. He was definitely a Greek god.

​

I pursed my lips together, sighing heavily. “Where’s your house?” I asked him.

​

“Why?”

​

“I want to go to your house” I said to him and he smiled looking at me as I raised my eyebrows looking straight in his eyes.

​

“My friend might be getting laid with a person I was about to go out with, so don’t want to make it awkward for her. So?” I said to him and he reluctantly nodded his head.

​

“I see. I am new in town, so staying at a hotel,” he replied, and I nodded my head.

​

“No worries, I will find somewhere to crush” I said to him and he chuckled looking at me, I am sure my attitude surprised him.

​

I sat back in the passenger seat; I quickly sent a text to Yvonne, so she knows that I won’t be going back home tonight.

​

“What? You are living? What about Lincoln?” She responded through a text and I sighed heavily. How nice of her to act like nothing happened.

​

“Please take care of yourself? Also, don’t worry about Lincoln just enjoy yourself. I am fine with it,” I quickly typed the message as I closed my eyes,

​

Lucas started the car, and I just closed my eyes, waiting for him to drive out of this place. Not that it upset me, but I didn’t want to think of what had happened with Lincoln and Yvonne.

​

*****

​

“Where are we?” I questioned after the car pulled over, I didn’t know where we were, I had dozed off briefly.

​

“At my hotel… We can go inside?” He questioned me and I nodded my head unbuckling my seat belt wanting to get out of the car.

​

I quickly got out and looked around me. It felt so awkward that I was here with someone I barely knew.

​

“We can go!” He said, and I started walking with him inside, I could feel the gaze of the people in the lobby but that didn’t matter, I was used to this kind of thing.

​

“So, how long are you in town?” I questioned him as soon as we got to the elevator.

​

“Not sure, I haven’t decided how long I will be here. Hopefully, I can spend a few years here,” He said, and I nodded my head.

​

“that’s great” I said as the elevator door opened to the floor where his room was. They covered the floor with gray and maroon carpets, the walls painted white and the doors made of brown rose wood.

​

We stopped in front of his hotel room as he took out his hotel card, before he could open the door, he pauses turning to me.

​

“Are you sure you want to come into my room?” He questioned me and I smiled before looking away. I swallowed hard before nodding my head.

​

He hesitated to open the door, so I pushed him aside and opened the door, walking inside the hotel room. I was a spacious room with modern fittings, on the left was the bed neatly spread with white sheets and blankets, just opposite it was the door to the shower and on the right next to the door was the desk which was made of rosewood, it had a desk lamp and a white mac laptop. I walked straight towards the window.

​

“Would you like anything to drink? I have whiskey.” He mentioned rushing towards the table was by the window.

​

“Of course, on the rocks” I said to him and he nodded his head, starting to pour for me. He was trying to hide the condoms were on the table, but I had already seen them.

​

I sauntered towards the bed and sat down, “Thanks” I said after he ended me the glass of whiskey.

​

“Sure” He said and sat next to me as I drank from the glass. It was so awkward for me to be here with man and our clothes were still on.

​

“Do you have anything you would want to watch?” He questioned, and I smiled at myself.

​

“Not really, I am not a movie person but I can watch anything you want” I said to him and he smiled at me before going to grab the remote, turning on the tv.

​

I sighed heavily as I sat there, “Want to sit here? Can I give you something to change into?” He questioned me and I nodded my head.

​

He went towards the closet and picked a t-shirt for me and gave me.

​

“You can change from the bathroom while I try to find something to watch” He said to me as I nodded my head, standing up walking towards the bathroom.

​

I got in the bathroom and took off my heels first, before taking off my jewelry, then clothes. I pulled the t-shirt over my head before checking myself in the mirror.

​

I walked back to the room and Lucas was already on the bed; he looked at me and froze; I swallowed hard before faking a smile; I knew there was a prime chance of me sleeping with him tonight.

​

“Come on! The movie just started” He said patting on the side of the bed where he had left space for me. I faked a smile, walking to the bed and joining Him as I made myself comfortable.

​

I grabbed my glass of whiskey as I slowly sipped from it. Why wasn’t he touching me? Why? How was that possible? I kept asking myself questions.

​

As time went by, I ended up dozing off while sitting. Yes, I did not sleep with him.
